Chapter 1594: I Have Thirteen Palaces
The crowd stared at Li Qiye and understood what Lin Hao was implying.
Li Qiye became amused and said: âIs that so? I would like to hear who is it that wants to be my enemy.â
âMy Eldest Brother, Long Aotian!â Lin Hao proudly declared: âHe shall be an Immortal Emperor, the real invincible being!â He became smug after saying this.
Regardless of their opinion about Long Aotian, most admitted that only Long Aotian was qualified to compete against Fiercest and no one else.
âLong Aotian? Never heard of him.â Li Qiye leisurely responded with a smirk.
The boys who had a crush on Yulian became happy after hearing this. Only Fiercest would be able to attack Long Aotian like this. The other cultivators also smiled wryly.
Anyone else would seem foolish and arrogant to make such a comment but it sounded so natural coming from Fiercest.
Lin Hao had no response in a short time. All he could do was glare awkwardly at Li Qiye.
âBrother Long is the first of the young generation to have a grand completion Immortal Physique. He fought against the world and killed five Godkings. Even a Nine Worldsâ Godking couldnât stop his incredible arts.â Yulian defended Aotian. Her face blushed again while recalling his tales with rippling eyes. She was full of pride whenever she talked about him to the chagrin of her suitors.
This comment entertained Li Qiye. He said: âYou like this Long Aotian?â
âNone of your business!â She angrily glared at him while feeling slightly embarrassed due to her one-sided crush being blatantly revealed.
He smiled and shook his head: âEven if he likes you, nothing good will come of this. Soaring Immortal shouldnât have come out with such fanfare and definitely shouldnât have let its disciples compete for the Heavenâs Will, at least not in this generation.â
âIf our Soaring Immortal wants to come into being, we shall do it! If we want to have the Heavenâs Will, our successor shall become Immortal Emperor!â Lin Hao angrily backed up his sect.
Li Qiye chuckled in response: âIt doesnât matter if this is the idea of your elders or the successor, this is a futile attempt with only one result, death!â
âYou, you are too confident! Brother Long has a grand completion physique with the arts of five emperors on top of supreme weapons. No one can stop him!â Yulian was unconvinced.
Love could make a person blind. In her mind, Long Aotian was unstoppable so she naturally became unhappy when Li Qiye put him down.
Li Qiye understood her thoughts and gently chuckled again: âHow can a grand completion Immortal Physique boast in front of me?â
âYou! At the very least, Brother Long has a grand completion physique, you still donât have one!â She angrily retorted.
Li Qiye felt like destroying her fantasy and leisurely stated: âI have thirteen palaces.â
This sentence rendered her breathless. In her opinion, Long Aotian was number one in all aspects. No one could match him. However, he didnât have thirteen palaces.
The other spectators gasped. This was an achievement worthy of arrogance.
âBrother Long know the arts of five emperors and have created a supreme dao in all of history!â She claimed again, unwilling to give in.
Li Qiye smirked again and said: âThirteen palaces.â
âBrother Long has a triple saint talent and he's the Denary King!â No one could stop the perfect man in her heart!
âThirteen palaces.â Li Qiye leisurely repeated.
âYouâ¦â She had no response and could only leer at him. Despite her crushâs perfect conditions, he couldnât surpass Li Qiye in terms of palaces.
The monarch nearby didnât know whether to laugh or cry. Li Qiye was clearly teasing Yulian but she didnât let up her undying love.
âMy Young Nobleâs thirteen palaces are enough to look down on the world.â She wanted to wake Yulian up: âAs for grand completion physiques, there are no less than one hundred in history but there is only one person with thirteen palaces.â
The monarch aimed to wake Yulian up but the girlâs expression became even uglier. She took this as a deliberate attempt to humiliate her. Even a servant was doing so.
Li Qiye simply chuckled and didnât say anything else.
âThatâs about right.â Many youths found the monarchâs statement reasonable. The ones who like Yulian felt that she was too apt.
After careful consideration, many young geniuses felt that Long Aotian was indeed blessed by the heavens, a top contemporary genius, but his achievement wasnât unheard of in history.
This wasnât the case for Li Qiye. Thirteen palaces were one-and-only. It was a miracle created by him, more than enough to carve his name down history. This was an achievement comparable to being an emperor.
Yulian was at a loss, unable to come up with another argument to defend her sweetheart. However, she saw her loveâs shadow on the eleventh step. Her eyes flashed with a new idea so she pointed at the twelve scales: âLi Qiye, youâre amazing indeed so you probably donât mind climbing the scales. Brother Long easily left his shadow on the eleventh step so you can try to. If you canât reach that spot, then youâre no match for him and definitely canât compete for the throne. It shows his peerless talents, dao heart, and determination.â
She stared gloatingly at Li Qiye and believed that he wouldnât be able to reach the eleventh step. After all, ever since the generation of Immortal Emperor Yin Tian, only Long Aotian has reached the eleventh step out of so many climbers.
âThatâs right, it was a piece of cake for my Eldest Brother to reach the eleventh step.â Lin Hao loudly chimed in: âTry it if you dare. Show that you can compete with my brother.â
The two of them were under heavy pressure, especially Yulian. She refused to believe that Longtian was beneath Li Qiye.
After hearing this, Li Qiye shook his head and smile: âLove can make someone foolish. Only the twelve scales, not some insuperable test. There are plenty of people who can reach the eleventh step in this world, not just your sweetheart. It is just that they do not care for fame so they donât bother.â
âHmph, really now?â Lin Hao said aggressively: âTheyâre just afraid of losing faces. These geniuses that do not care for fame probably canât even reach the eighth level. Thatâs why they donât try at all in order to avoid losing some reputation.â
Lin Hao always had his Elder Brotherâs back regardless of the situation. He was certain that Longtian would become emperor.
âIs that your excuse?â Yulian pushed on further after seeing Li Qiyeâs disinterest on climbing: âWe wonât force you if you donât want to but do not go around and say that youâre the only one qualified to become emperor since you still have a long way to go before competing with Brother Long!â
She was particularly pleased with this victory. If he were to find out, perhaps he would look at her in a different light and like her even more.
