Chapter 1127: The Storm

Many eyes in the plateau were on Li Qiye as he left the Buddhist Kingdom. Many people were shaken. Some audibly gasped when they saw him come out unscathed.

An old God-Monarch murmured: “So heaven-defying, he was able to leave safe and sound.”

Challenging the entire plateau and crushing the portal while leaving the Buddhist Kingdom in one piece — this was too heaven-defying. Even the greatest geniuses wouldn’t even dare to think about such a thing.

In a short amount of time, the plateau became quiet to the extreme. Fiercest had left an indelible impression on everyone’s minds.

In the present, no one was able to do this. It could even be said that for many more millions of years, very few would challenge the plateau like this.

“That’s Fiercest for you. It’s no wonder why he can overshadow Jikong Wudi and even get Goddess Mei to follow him. Who can compare to him in the current generation?” Even the most brilliant genius had to lament and the most arrogant crowd had to keep their heads low. They admitted their shortcomings before Fiercest.

Li Qiye was quiet as he walked into the Buddhist City.

“Young Noble—” The girls were relieved to see him return safely. They were worried that he would be fighting the Buddhist Lord after entering the kingdom.

Li Qiye sighed and gently waved his sleeve after seeing them: “I’m a little tired, I’ll go back and rest first.”

With that, he turned and entered his bedroom.

The girls glanced at each other after seeing his demeanor. They were all confused from not knowing what actually happened.

In his bedroom, he quietly sat in a chair with a cold expression. At this moment, he has turned into a withered tree. Nothing else in this world mattered to him.

He severed his ties with the world as he rested emotionlessly as if petrified. He did this for some time before finally returning to his former self.

“The real storm is approaching, this is nothing. The world will always leave behind some regrets.” Li Qiye looked out the window and gazed towards the far horizon.

In the distant years, he and Qian Suyun had faced adversities together. They experienced the most dangerous and desperate situations. During that time, they never abandoned each other.

Regardless of how hard it was or how many deities and emperors chased them, they still marched forward hand in hand while facing the bloody rains and storms.

Alas, the inseparable pair eventually parted ways. They had their own wills and ideals.

Just like Qian Suyun said, the two wanted an answer. However, their answers were different.

Once upon a time, their roads were the same, but Qian Suyun’s focus was on sentient beings while Li Qiye’s focus was on his own path. All of his being was fixated on a baptism of blood. His era was doomed to be grotesque and grisly.

He didn’t try to hold her back because she was a very smart woman. She had been through enough and he didn’t want her to experience more years of killing. He didn’t hope that she would have even more sleepless nights in the future.

“Farewell, Su’er.” He sighed. There were no tears or sadness. Everything was within his expectations.

“Young Noble, are you alright?” He heard the girls whispering.

He looked up and saw the girls standing right there with worried expressions, including Mei Suyao.

He felt warm inside as he asked: “How long have I been sitting here for?”

Time came and went, but no matter what happened, there had always been people accompanying him. Even though he knew that many people couldn’t follow him until the end of the world, this was more than enough for him. What else could he ask for?

“Five days.” Li Shuangyan said: “Why are you like this?”
