Chapter 5805: My Overlords Cannot Lose
No one had a problem with Profound conceding to Li Qiye. The question was how were they going to slow him down. Thi/s chapter is updated by ake way then.â Li Qiye waved his hand.
Profound shook his head and said: âYou will still have to walk over my corpse first.â
His calm tone still evoked emotions from listeners - a response worthy of being the mightiest emperor from Celestial Court.
âHow stubborn.â Li Qiye smiled.
âYes, Sacred Teacher, but Celestial Court will persist forever after my death.â Profound said with conviction.
His allies felt their blood boiling and their courage returned.
âPersist forever.â The emperors closest to Celestial Court such as Light-dragon shared this sentiment.
They have spent their whole life toiling for Celestial Court. Thus, they had no problem hoping the best for its future.
However, Profound was an outsider who had only appeared in Celestial Court a few times. His loyalty and determination left everyone in awe.
Not long ago, Titanic Conqueror removed her bone to leave Celestial Court. This dealt a blow to their morale.
After all, removing that forehead bone was agonizing with lasting consequences. Nevertheless, some wanted to follow in her footsteps. The price aside, it was better than dying with Celestial Court.
Profound answered with silence.
âYou havenât thought about the possibility of their not showing up even after your death and the collapse of Celestial Court? Do you know where they are, have you met them before?â Li Qiye continued.
Profound didnât answer while others thought he hadnât met them.
Although some of them were gifted incredible treasures, it appeared that an actual meeting had not taken place.
Who among them had seen the overlords? Just the founder and the three immortals?
âSacred Teacher, the supreme overlords are slumbering, the likes of me cannot meet them, but your intrusion shall wake them up.â Nether said.
âIâm afraid thatâs just a fantasy. They wonât care about any of you, just be smart and run away.â Li Qiye smiled.
âI trust the overlords and will not yield, Sacred Teacher.â Profound shook his head.
âFine, weâll see if they will save you.â Li Qiye said.
âThey have their reasons, a junior such as myself is not worthy of their time, but Celestial Court will be.â Profound looked ready for death.
âWow, such loyalty. If you all wish to die protecting this place and the old geezers, have it your way then. Donât worry, I will keep you alive so you can see how I will slay your supreme overlords.â Li Qiye clapped.
Listeners felt a chill coursing down their spine, somehow believing he would stay true to his words.
