Chapter 970: Hatred (2/2)

This was not him being arrogant, he really had such qualifications. Even Chi Zixian and Bai Jian were nobodies in his eyes, let alone others.

Moreover, the primal ground had never taken direct control of the Blood Race before. Most of the time, they would only indirectly do so.

“The details haven’t been disclosed.” The ancestor answered: “I used a lot of different methods before finding out a little bit of information. I heard the person’s name is Li Qiye, but there’s not much else.”

“Li Qiye…” The monarch became wide-eyed after hearing this: “Li Qiye is at the Holy City right now!”

“I don’t know the brat.” The ancestor shook his head: “I only heard that not only did this brat go to the primal ground, he could have entered the blood pool as well.”

“What! Enter the blood pool?!” The monarch was completely shaken after hearing this. As the descendant of the Blood-devil Tribe, he naturally knew the significance behind entering the blood pool. It was the same as a carp jumping over the dragon gate. Even if one couldn’t become the future ruler, they would still be highly valued by the primal ground. It was an extremely prestigious position.

He murmured in disbelief: “Isn’t this Li Qiye a human? How could he have entered the blood pool? How can he become the Blood ruler?”

“We don’t know anything for now.” The ancestors spoke: “The old ancestors didn’t say anything about your matter. They didn’t confirm or deny anything, your matter was simply put on hold. Maybe they will restart the assessment later.”

In just a short period of time, the monarch became quiet as his expression darkened. He was fully confident in being able to return to the primal ground to train and even made this news public.

But now, this Li Qiye came out of nowhere and ruined all his plans as well as his beautiful dreams!

“Li Qiye!” The monarch revealed a frighteningly murderous glare. He had no feud with Li Qiye prior to this. In fact, he didn’t even care for him.

Even when Li Qiye was acting arrogantly against the Crimson Night Kingdom, the monarch only laughed and watched on the sideline as if it was no big deal. After all, it was only an ignorant brat.

However, now was a different story. Even though he hadn’t seen Li Qiye, he viewed him as a mortal enemy.

At this time, he only wished for Li Qiye to die, especially to the hands of the Crimson Night Kingdom! With that, the primal ground would test him again and he would be able to realize his ambition!

For the experts of the Blood Race, who didn’t want to return to the primal ground to rule the Blood Race in the nine worlds? This was a crowning glory. Nothing was more eminent than this outside of becoming an Immortal Emperor.

The monarch coldly uttered: “Li Qiye must die!” Li Qiye, who he had never met before, was now standing in his way, so he must die!

***

In the Holy City, many people were not optimistic about Li Qiye’s chance while others mocked him.

However, there was one exception. It was Bai Jian, the descendant of the Grand Palm Ancient Court!

He murmured after hearing Li Qiye’s aggressive provocation towards the Crimson Night Kingdom: “It really is him. After so many years, he is still this arrogant and overbearing!”

At this moment, he had guessed who Li Qiye was! Unlike the others, he had taken an adventure to the Grand Middle Territory and Eastern Hundred Cities when he was younger. Although he had never seen Li Qiye, he had heard of his prestige.

Later on, rumors of Li Qiye being dead began to spread, and thus his reputation declined. Even the people from those two realms began to gradually forget about him.

But this time, Bai Jian was able to guess Li Qiye’s identity after seeing him in the southern region.

He smiled and said: “The madman of the past is still so domineering no matter where he goes… It will be fun this time. I wonder if the Crimson Night Kingdom will be able to handle it or not. Hopefully, they won’t be annihilated like the Tiger’s Howl School back then.”
