Chapter 20 : Always Arrogant No Matter The Occasion (2)
“There is no need for discussion!”
Demon King Lun Ri commandingly asserted:
“Young Master Li can take any one thing from it, provided that you can open the Saint Cavern.”
“Lun Ri, you are a smart person. Find me when you are ready; I will be taking my leave.”
Li Qi Ye turned around and left the sky chamber. Yu He had to, once again, unwillingly carry him on his back.
After Li Qi Ye’s departure, an elder couldn’t help express:
“Your Highness, this decision regarding the Saint Cavern felt a bit rushed.”
“Not necessarily.”
The voice of Lun Ri started again:
“Since our inception, the Saint Cavern had always been isolated. No one had successfully opened the cave. This was a good opportunity for us, and it was in line with the Patriarch’s will.”
“Your Highness, what about the Heavenly Guardians? How come we have never heard of them before? What are they; Heavenly Beast or Eternal Demon?”
An elder curiously inquired.
“I’m not quite sure myself.”
Demon King Lun Ri stated.
“Our knowledge and writings regarding the Heavenly Guardians are quite lacking. Only the ancient scroll of the Patriarch mentioned something about them. Unless we are at the brink of destruction, they will not activate by themselves. Only the sect masters are allowed to see this scroll.”
“But they activated their power today.”
Another elder conveyed.
“I do not understand it either, but if they have chosen him, they must have their own reasons for doing so.”
Lun Ri replied.
“This kid, he is too scary.”
The first elder opened his mouth:
“According to Yu He, he went through the Chaotic Heart Forest twice, easily. This is truly unthinkable! Now the Heavenly Guardians have chosen him as well, this world really is not fair.”
“This is indeed an alarming fact. From our start to finish, we have always focused on cultivating the younger talents. Junior Leng is our strongest in terms of strength, and the Princess is the first in terms of raw aptitude, but the Heavenly Guardians did not choose them; instead, they chose a mortal boy with a Mortal Physique, Mortal Life Wheel, and Mortal Fate Palace.”
Another elder lamented.
“Of the numerous things in this world, we cannot understand all of them.”
In the end, although Lun Ri felt cheated as well, he could only be acquiesced.
“Your Highness, if he can actually open the Saint Cavern, are we really giving him anything he wants?”
One elder inquired.
“That’s right, it was rumored that, in the Saint Cavern, there is a big chance of an Immortal Emperor’s Life Treasure hiding in there.”
An unwilling Elder exclaimed.
“If he can actually open it, then it is the heaven’s will.”[1]
Lun Ri responded:
“According to Elder Sword, none of us in this generation would be able to open the Saint Cavern. Li Qi Ye had done many unthinkable deeds while he is here; maybe he can open the cavern.”
After hearing the words “Elder Sword”, no one else dared to open their mouth; because no one within the sect has more power and influence than Elder Sword, including the sect master.
“Order that, if any disciples were to reveal what happened today, they would be heavily punished. This is an iron law!”
In the end, the King declared.
