Chapter 1887: Spirit Butterfly (2/2)
“Young Sis Ji, long time no see.” The woman greeted back.
Her name was Yin Huali, the lord of Sunset Glow. This was a lineage of the devil race with two emperors in Pure. It had considerable power.
Even though there was racial tension, imperial lineages like Sunset Glow and the Ji Clan still had some ties.
While chatting with the princess, Huali couldn’t help a.n.a.lyzing Li Qiye. She had heard of his stories before and didn’t want to provoke this mysterious man.
The experts continued forward. It didn’t matter their initial att.i.tude before coming here. While standing in front of this statue, they lit an incense and kneeled to offer their respect straight from the heart.
After placing the incense, some experts couldn’t help but stare at the shoulder of the Buddha.
It was quite large like a mountain range. There were many inconspicuous spirit b.u.t.terflies lying on its shoulder that required careful observation to spot. One would find that these b.u.t.terflies were made of a faint light.
They were very famous because earning their favor would mean a safe journey in Buddhist Plain. They could even bring you to the hidden treasures of the plain.
Rumor has it that three people have obtained the favor of these b.u.t.terflies - World Emperor, Holy Emperor, and Mortal Reversion Ancient G.o.d. Some later on even thought that because of this event, the three of them found an amazing fortune, resulting in their achievements later.
Despite a lack of evidence, cultivators would always respectfully come here to wors.h.i.+p. Of course, nothing could be better than also gaining the favor of the b.u.t.terflies.
Alas, these b.u.t.terflies were lying on the shoulder with no intention of befriending anyone.
After a long time, it was finally Li Qiye and the princess’ turn. He lit an incense and bowed while articulating: “The path of men is full of ups and downs. Oh the wise sages of past, watch as I sweep through everything in the future.”
His words made everyone glance at each other. They were aware of his t.i.tle, Fiercest. They felt that this guy was indeed fierce enough, always spouting crazy words wherever he went.
The princess was much more respectful in comparison. After lighting the incense, she bowed three times towards this Buddha.
When the two were about to leave, there was suddenly a poof. The b.u.t.terflies lying on the shoulder of the statue suddenly started flying.
“The spirit b.u.t.terflies are moving.” Someone shouted.
The b.u.t.terflies flew down and circled Li Qiye from top to bottom as if they were happy fairies.
“What, this can’t be right?” An old expert shouted: “I’ve been here more than ten times but I haven’t seen one b.u.t.terfly moving, let alone all of them!”
“How unbelievable. Back when World Emperor got here, only one b.u.t.terfly circled around him but Fiercest got all of them right now.” Another knowledgeable ancestor became shocked.
“How can he be so lucky? Is this what you call the heaven’s favorite?” One cultivator became jealous and said.
Even Jilin Princess’ mouth became agape at this astonis.h.i.+ng scene.
“Return, just one is enough.” Li Qiye said before blowing a puff of air. He blew all the b.u.t.terflies away with the exception of one lingering on his shoulder.
“Let’s go.” He glanced at this b.u.t.terfly before telling the princess.
The crowd was stunned to see this scene. It was better to have more b.u.t.terflies but Li Qiye actually only left one behind. There was actually someone afraid of having too many b.u.t.terflies?
