Chapter 1215: Golden Crow Monarch
The human cultivators with newfound hope were shaken after hearing this. They also felt that this renewal was impossible. After all, no one had succeeded for millions of years.
Li Qiye glanced at the few human cultivators and flatly said: “This is a troubled place with an incoming disaster. Blood will stain the land and bones will fill this ocean, so leave while you can. Return to your homes.”
After hearing this, the humans darted their eyes at each other with hesitation. One or two people left, but the rest remained.
Li Qiye was not too persuasive since he knew that they didn’t completely trust him.
“Hehehe, just a human brat spouting nonsense. What a naive fool.” A gloomy voice sounded at this moment.
The water splashed and separated into a road on the sea. An old man came out from the depths with more than ten ministers dressed in both scholarly and martial uniforms. Every single one of them was full of blood energy and looked quite extraordinary. 1
The old man had a huge turtle shell on his back, showing that he was a demon turtle. His bean-sized eyes were flashing with glints. It was clear at first glance that this was definitely a vicious character.
“The Turtle Minister.” Someone murmured after seeing this old man: “It looks like the Immaculate Expanse wants to get involved too.”
The arrival of this old man and his followers made the waiting cultivators feel a great pressure. Prior to this, many great powers had shown up, but nothing at the level of the expanse. If the expanse was now here, the other lineages like the Golden Isle and the Void Imperfection Three Schools might be on their way as well.
Once they were here, it wouldn’t be as easy for the great powers to get a piece of the pie. As for the minor sects and vagrant cultivators, they would only be able to stand to the side as they were unqualified for this competition.
The Turtle Minister was the prime minister of the Immaculate Expanse, a great military leader under Daoist Lin. He was a competent official and took care of the expanse’s administration for the daoist. Moreover, his own cultivation was great since he was a famous Virtuous Paragon.
Li Qiye lazily glanced at the turtle and said: “Just a turtle, stop blabbering or I’ll make turtle soup out of you.”
The minister wasn’t happy to hear this. He was considered a great demon after taking a form other than that of a turtle’s, so he absolutely despised others calling him a turtle.
“Little animal, you killed my master’s attendant and dared to shame my Immaculate Expanse. Your crime is punishable by ten thousand deaths! I don’t care which sect you are from, you won’t be able to escape death today!” He pointed at Li Qiye and uttered: “If you want a quick death, kneel and surrender or I’ll mince you into pieces as revenge…”
“Prime Minister, leave this little beast to me!” A loud cry came from the horizon. A billowing flame emerged as if there was a sea of fire in the sky.
A person flew closer accompanied by a great heatwave that seemingly wanted to boil the sea. The moment he stepped onto Peacock Land, a terrifying temperature assaulted the earth. The vegetation nearby was ignited instantly.
This was a middle-aged man with a stately presence. He didn’t try to hide his blood energy at all and instead let it roam free. Divine rings opened around him as if he was a God-Monarch.
A large Golden Crow existed inside these rings. It carried the sky and gave off a holy aura.
Someone blurted after seeing him: “Golden Crow Monarch, the junior brother of the Extreme Yang Monarch!”
Another murmured: “The Extreme Yang School is here, so it won’t be long till the Golden Isle and Void Imperfection Three Schools are here as well.”
This man strode into Peacock Land and stepped onto a high peak. He looked at Li Qiye with a murderous intent in his eyes.
The Golden Crow Monarch told the Turtle Minister: “Prime Minister, this beast killed my nephew. Out of consideration for our friendship, leave his dog life for me. I will take his head to my senior brother.”
The turtle smiled and replied with haste: “Please go for it. Just leave his body so that I can also take it back to report.”
This conversation made it seem like Li Qiye was already a dead man that couldn’t do anything about it.
In fact, many didn’t deny the monarch’s strength. Although he was the Extreme Yang Monarch’s junior brother, he joined the school even earlier. Some believed that he became a paragon even before his brother.
At this school, strength dictated the seniority, not who joined the earliest.
