Chapter 4 : Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect 2 (2/2)
“Senior Disciple, the elders call for you in the grand chamber.”
He quickly approached Li Qi Ye.
“Something major happened?”
Nan Huai Ren was a bit surprised but did not hide anything.He nodded and said:
“I will not lie to you, Honorable Brother. The Nine Saint Demon Gate sent us an invitation.”
He paused for a second and glanced at Li Qi Ye, then continued on:
“I heard your fiancé wants to test your abilities.”
“Nine Saint Demon Gate!”
Li Qi Ye suddenly remembered an old memory when he heard this name.
Nan Huai Ren thought Li Qi Ye did not know of this sect so he quickly explained.
“The Nine Saint Demon Gate is one of the biggest sects in the Grand Middle Territory. They rule over Old Ox Country, having the rights to grant titles. Our two sects used to have an amicable and close relationship together. The original Patriarch of Nine Saint used to be named Nine Saint Virtuous Paragon. He was the number one general under our Immortal Emperor Min Ren and followed him to sweep through the Nine Worlds. When we were ruling over an Ancient Kingdom, even the Nine Saint Demon Gate had to pay tribute to us.”
“I have heard of the sect.”
Li Qi Ye smiled gently. Of course he knew about the sect, and he had met Nine Saint Virtuous Paragon as well.
During the early time of the Emperors Era, because of Min Ren’s Dao path, Li Qi Ye spent so much time and energy in order to entrap this demonic monster named Nine Saint; forcing him to be Min Ren’s fate protector.
“Where did this fiancé come from?”
Li Qi Ye asked.
Nan Huai Ren answered:
“From the legends, when our Patriarch accepted the Heaven’s Will and became the Immortal Emperor; Nine Saint Virtuous Paragon had a pact with us. If their prime descendant was a female while ours was a male, then we would become in-laws. “
Pausing for a moment, he sighed dejectedly:
“At that time, they were climbing high.”
“I think that in the past, the Old Chicken had a female disciple.”
After listening, Li Qi Ye quietly mumbled once again while remembering his past. However, he had forgotten about it after falling into his deep sleep. It was not a matter of great importance.
“What did you say, Great Brother?”
Nan Huai Ren inquired since he didn’t hear it.
“Nothing. So their prime descendant right now is a woman?”
“It is known that between the two of our sects, there has not existed any in-law relationships for a long time. In this era, their prime descendant is indeed a woman.”
He paused for a second to look at Li Qi Ye’s expression:
“I also hear that their descendant, Li Shuang Yan, has an innate King Physique.”
Hearing Nan Huai Ren’s story, Li Qi Ye had understood everything.The Nine Saint Demon Gate naturally didn’t want to marry a descendant with such aptitude and potential to a disciple in a declining sect.
“That makes things a little more interesting.”
Li Qi Ye slightly chuckled.
Nan Huai Ren shockingly stared at the calm Li Qi Ye.He felt strange that an ordinary boy at the age of thirteen was able to face everything like a Royal Noble who had been through numerous trials.
If it was someone else, having heard Nan Huai Ren, they would become anxious and frightened.But Li Qi Ye was entirely opposite, and carried on his nonchalant attitude.
***
“Has Nan Huai Ren informed you of the current situation?”
The first elder coldly asked once Li Qi Ye entered the ancestral chamber.
Truth be told, the six elders definitely did not welcome a wastrel like Li Qi Ye.But because of the current situation, they hoped that he was not so useless and that he could luckily passed the trial of the Nine Saint Demon Gate.At this moment, the Cleansing Incense Ancient Saint truly need a giant monster such as the Nine Saint Demon Gate to be an in law.Even though the chance of success was extremely small, but they still wanted to try.
“Honorable Elder, I understand completely.”
Li Qi Ye lightly nodded his head.
“Good! As long as you can pass the tribulation, we will handsomely reward you.”
The first elder said with a cold voice, as if to mock Li Qi Ye’s calm demeanor.
Li Qi Ye elegantly smiled and politely said:
“I am very willing to go to the trial, but I have three conditions.”
“Impudent!”
One of the elders yelled out:
“You dare to negotiate in front of the elders?”
