Chapter 1853: Another Meeting (1/2)

At this moment, their forefather, Star Stomper High G.o.d, actually performed such a grand gesture towards Li Qiye and even considered himself a junior. This scared the soul out of Peng Yue and Peng Yi.

Remember that he was a prestigious High G.o.d, even on the same level as certain emperors. Just who the h.e.l.l was this Li Qiye?

This made the two shudder with cold sweat. He might be a supreme overlord walking in the mundane world, quite a rare and horrifying occurrence.

Peng Yi was even more affected. In the last two days, he had been calling Li Qiye, “brother”. If his forefather was a.s.suming the role of Li Qiye’s junior, it meant that he was overstepping his bounds. This thought made his legs tremble even though he was no coward. It was already impressive that he didn’t drop to the ground.

Star Stomper also sat down with a happy expression. Even though they weren’t master-disciple in status, Li Qiye had indeed taught him before. His current achievement was due to Li Qiye. Back in Emperor Hunt, he followed Li Qiye everywhere and rampaged the battlefield on command.

Star Stomper was one of the longest followers of Li Qiye among the High G.o.ds but he stopped seeing Li Qiye after the guy went back to the nine worlds. Thus, it was understandable for him to rejoice after seeing Li Qiye’s real body.

“The two of you, come over here. Quickly greet His Excellency. This is your fortune.” Star Stomper gestured at the two kneeling men.

The two regained their wits after hearing their forefather. They quickly came over and prostrated with fear: “We lowly ones greet you, Your Excellency.”

They didn’t know who he was but it couldn’t be wrong to kneel right now.

Peng Yi didn’t dare to look up and eventually said: “I was too blind to know about your presence, please forgive me…” His words were trembling from having been too casual with an overlord.

“Rise, you didn’t know.” Li Qiye looked at him and smiled.

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief and prayed their fortune that this person was benevolent enough.

Star Stomper couldn’t help shaking his head while looking at the two: “That’s my unworthy descendants. Looks like the clan’s decline is inevitable just like the setting sun.”

This G.o.d might be powerful but he couldn’t stay in the mundane world. He needed to hide in Exploration Grounds. Thus, even if he wanted to help, he didn’t have the time or the energy to put in the effort.

The two lowered their head in shame. Their clan had enough resources and ordinary lineages didn’t dare to provoke them when their forefather is still alive.

However, they couldn’t produce any talent recently. The older generation was withering while the young had no accomplishments. This resulted in the clan not being as prosperous as before.

Li Qiye chuckled in response after hearing the negative evaluation: “Peng Yi is still cultivable. His talents are a bit lacking with an unpolished dao heart, but he is reasonable and understands propriety. Even if he won’t have any achievements on the dao path, he’ll be just fine being in charge of the clan. There is still hope for a resurgence.”

Peng Yi was indeed mediocre in terms of cultivation. However, he was capable of reading situations and act accordingly. His biggest flaw was his lack of experience.

“If Your Excellency thinks so, then he is worthy of grooming.” Star Stomper nodded and told Peng Yi: “Stay with me in the next month then, I’ll personally train you! Do not disappoint us, the responsibility of the clan falls on your shoulder!”

Star Stomper was aware of His Excellency’s ability to see through everything. Peng Yi’s evaluation showed his potential. Because of this, he decided to keep the boy around for training. The Peng Clan required talents in the future.

Peng Yi was stunned to hear this and couldn’t calm down. It took a while before he kneeled down and said: “I will do my best, forefather!”
