Chapter 2038: Approaching Storm (1/2)

The prince was always curious about the final battle because his entire family went on this path, including his mother.

After Immortal Emperor Fei and Deep South Divine Emperor started the third expedition, there has been no news of them. The world believed that they were no longer alive, but the prince held on to a sliver of hope.

There was no way for him to embark as well since he had things to worry about still. He couldn’t let go of the academy but he knew that Li Qiye had been there, the only survivor to return. He wore a dignified expression, a rare sight on a powerful being like him.

Li Qiye looked back in silence. He eventually said: “Hmm, I don’t know how to answer this question.”

“Sir, just be straight with me, I can handle both good and bad news. There’s nothing I can’t accept at this age now.” The prince solemnly said.

Li Qiye shook his head: “It’s not about good or bad news, more complicated than that. But if you must have an answer, then I can only say to wait after the final battle. You’ll understand then.”

“If there is no result, then there is no answer.” Li Qiye sighed: “That’s all I can tell you.”

The prince pondered in silence before speaking: “I believe I can wait until then, and that you can make it there to break the timeless shackles. If even you fail, then despair will swallow us all. Many will join the darkness in the future.”

“Darkness permeates in every epoch, that’s unavoidable. But right now, it is also a good chance to figure out and kill those who deserve death. That’s all we can do.” Li Qiye chuckled.

“Right.” The prince nodded: “It is indeed a chance to wipe out the traitors of our race. Alas, it is uneasy not knowing who the enemy is.”

Li Qiye said: “It won’t take long now.”

“The seeds of trouble in the academy can be wiped clean completely too, it will make the academy much stronger.” The prince agreed with Li Qiye’s viewpoint.

“Let’s hope the storm turns into a tempest.” Li Qiye smiled: “But it is indeed disappointing if alumni emperors join the fray on the other side.”

The prince didn’t have anything to say. If these powerful alumni were to conspire with the evil-doers, it would be too much to take. The prince didn’t want to see this happen at all.

Of course, he would still kill them all the same, no time to show mercy.

The tea party was about to end soon so Min Xinxue and the others were heading back for Study Room. The other students headed for their own cla.s.srooms.

Li Qiye returned as well and stood outside the main hall to gaze at these sceneries. He was quite immersed in this task.

“Teacher, are you researching something?” Xinxue and Goldloop were very curious. Only Jinsheng remained quiet.

After finding the medicine with Li Qiye’s help, Jinsheng no longer coughed. Moreover, he seemed to be much more relaxed and carefree after the tea party.

“Just taking a look at the land.” Li Qiye said: “Not long from now, all of this might be gone, same with the academy.”

“Teacher, you must be joking?” Goldloop was startled: “The academy is the lineage with the strongest foundation in the hundred race. Other imperial lineages might perish but the academy will be just fine.”

“Nothing is eternal in this world.” Li Qiye smiled: “Certainly not any lineage. Just like Immortal Gate back then, a sect with nine emperors fell in just one night.”

The group shuddered after hearing this because they knew about this famous historical event.
