Chapter 2135: Insane Court Lineage (1/2)
This common-looking young man had no oppressive aura or ma.s.sive true energy. No one would believe a guy like this claiming to be their ancestor. In fact, they would give him a rough beating or think that he was simply insane!
Alas, Li Qiye was in a coffin floating in the abyss. This persuaded Yang Shengping otherwise.
“May, may I ask how to address you, Ancestor?” He mustered some courage and asked.
Li Qiye naturally saw the man’s att.i.tude and chuckled: “You certainly think I’m a fake, that I’m too young and couldn’t be an ancestor from Insane Court.”
Two out of Shengping’s three souls just left his body from fear. His legs grew weak as he lowered his head and apologized: “I do not dare to, Ancestor. This little one doesn’t dare to have such thoughts…”
He then got on the ground once more.
Li Qiye waved his sleeve and said: “It’s fine, it’s just honorifics. If you don’t accept me as your ancestor, then you may call me, Li Qiye.”
The old man got up with cold sweats all over. He lamented his fate and even if he was ten times more courageous, he wouldn’t dare to call the guy by his name. However, he racked his brain and couldn’t come up with an ancestor with this name. Plus, too much time had pa.s.sed already.
The only ancestor that was still remembered till this point was their progenitor - Insane!
“Please excuse my offense out of ignorance, Ancestor.” He bowed again, not wanting to offend this person or he might lose his head. The sect would go down with him as well.
Li Qiye said: “Forget it. You’re here for something?”
The old man hesitated for a moment before revealing: “Ancestor, this little one is here to invite you back to Insane court so that you can take care of the administration there in the future.”
In his mind, nothing could be better if this Li Qiye could take over. No, it would be the most joyous event for him and the sect!
He looked at him and asked: “Who is in charge right now? Which blood lineage?”
“Ancestor, the imperial dao shattered a while ago so no one is in charge for now, but the queen is acting as the regent.”
The old man was not at ease because their lineage had lost their imperial system not long ago. Right now, everyone had their own agenda with plans in the shadows. They were fixated on gaining authority so the appearance of a reborn ancestor? This was too much of a coincidence.
Skepticism was well-warranted in this case. A reborn ancestor could definitely be a fake but he didn’t dare to make this a.s.sumption despite it being quite logical.
“From an imperial system down to a myriad system. Didn’t know that was possible.” Li Qiye chuckled and said.
The old man from Drystone had several goals in coming to Three Immortals. He spent a lot of effort in creating Insane Court in order to leave behind his vestige even if his epoch were to be destroyed.
He utilized all methods to establish a firm foundation for this system, allowing it to reach the immortal level.
Unfortunately, too much time had pa.s.sed. It did produce some great talents who eventually became True Emperors. Alas, they were no match compared to their progenitor.
The withering was inevitable - from immortal to imperial then myriad. The sad truth was that even in Myriad Lineage World, Insane Court wasn’t considered to be that strong of a sect.
Nevertheless, weak it might be, it was still a behemoth compared to a tiny sect like Grand Sword. The latter was but a tiny branch of this sky-blotting tree.
“Alright.” Li Qiye said: “It’s time for me to come back. Insane Court will prosper again after I take over.”
This decision was certainly whimsical but ultimately, he still knew the old man despite being enemies. Today, coming to the guy’s lineage and becoming an ancestor? He might as well go with the flow.
His grand dao still needed time so playing in Three Immortals could make the trip even more worthwhile!
