Chapter 1824: Item From The Outer Realm (1/2)
Li Qiye gazed at the item. It looked quite ordinary and seemed to be a rock that has been burnt to a crisp and full of cuts. These cuts couldn’t have been done by the juniors of the clan since they were formed naturally at its inception.
Upon closer inspection, one would find that the charred appearance wasn’t due to heat. They were laws of the grand dao twisting together and causing uneven surfaces.
Inside these surfaces were ancient runes. The ancestors from the Jilin Clan have never seen them before.
“It directly flew to the clan?” Li Qiye mentally shuddered after seeing this and asked.
“That’s right.” The princess nodded: “The ancestors said that a long time after our forefather embarked on the ultimate expedition, this meteorite fell from the sky. The ancestors couldn’t see through its mysteries so our monarchs said to wait for the fateful person.”
Back then, the appearance of this meteorite shocked all the ancestors in the clan. Keep in mind that a great lineage like them had a land that was completely reinforced. Without their permission, not even a mosquito could get through. There must have been a reason why this meteorite was able to gain entry.
The ancestors understood that the item was shocking even if it wasn’t a treasure due to the information contained inside. Alas, they failed to learn anything so they left it to the “fateful ones”.
The item was of the utmost importance since it fell down from the sky. It must have something to do with the ultimate expedition so the ancestors kept it a secret from outsiders. Today, it wasn’t easy for them to let someone else see it.
Li Qiye took a deep breath and gently placed both hands on the item. He had always been unperturbed regardless of the circ.u.mstances but his hands were uncontrollably trembling this time around. This wasn’t good news for him because there were many things encompa.s.sed within that he didn’t wish to face.
Alas, he still had to face them. He couldn’t personally send the last expedition away with Immortal Emperor Qi Zhen but it was time to look at the item from the sky.
The world fell into a terrible silent with time stopping. The princess stood there calmly and was willing to keep him company. From start to finish, she didn’t issue a single sound and even purposely slowed down her breaths.
Eventually, he withdrew his hands. The princess could see that they were trembling.
Li Qiye slowly said: “I want and will take this thing away.”
He didn’t wait for a response before putting it away.
“I will let the ancestors know.” She spoke softly.
What else could she say? He didn’t give their clan any time to negotiate at all nor had any intent to do so in the first place. Their opinion simply didn’t matter.
Li Qiye sat down and ordered: “Tell Tieshu Weng and his disciples to see me.”
The princess called for a disciple to send the message.
After Tieshu Weng’s group came in and saw Li Qiye, they simply didn’t know what to say. Tieshu Weng and He Chen had no power in their knees and dropped to the ground. Shen Xiaoshan was also kneeling.
“This, this lowly one greets Young n.o.ble.” The old man was stuttering. He was truly frightened after the last two days. Alas, there was also a trace of excitement.
