Chapter 5983: What Ancestral Teachings?
In the main hall, Radiant Master enthusiastically played the role of a good host.
âYoung Noble, we are poor and have no delicacies to offer you, I apologize again.â She said.
Li Qiye smiled and looked around at the portraits of the sectâs ancestors, the majority of which were yellow and brittle.
He saw a few familiar faces, prompting memories to resurface.
âWho is this?â Li Qiye asked regarding one of them.
âOur ancestor, Radiant Longevity Monarch.â Radiant Master said.
âI see.â Li Qiye smiled. The portrait depicted a middle-aged man.
One could still imagine him when he was younger and vigorous, but he possessed a dignified appearance like a king sitting among the clouds.
âThe ancestor was the one who combined the old lineages, I believe he was a member of both.â Radiant Master said.
âNot Hundred-pill Gate?â Li Qiye smiled.
âYouâre aware of this, Young Noble?â This was a secret of their sect but she didnât mind him knowing the truth since he was their savior.
âSecrets canât be kept forever.â Li Qiye shook his head.
âYes, Young Noble.â She didnât pursue how he knew and said: âOur monarch was from Hundred-pill Gate of Longevity System. The world addressed him as Pill King and he was indeed worthy of the title, being the best in alchemy and pill refinement.â
Li Qiye chuckled since the girl was exaggerating some parts or didnât know all the details. It was Young Pill King, not Pill King, and what was this about being the best at alchemy?
âAnd how did he join Yang Radiance later?â Li Qiye asked.
âThat I donât know.â She shook her head: âHe supposedly joined and helped them with pill refinement, eventually reaching the rank of an ancestor.â
âHe was certainly capable in the art of alchemy, hence his long lifespan.â Li Qiye nodded. F0lloww new chapters at
âYou know more about our ancestor?â She became curious.
âItâs not your fault.â Li Qiye said: âYou have a heavy burden as the sect master.â
âI still donât know why you are here, Young Noble.â She said softly.
âYour monarch excavated a living mecha from here, right? Thatâs why Iâm here to take a good look.â Li Qiye smiled.
âSilver Dragon Mecha, youâre here because of it?â She took a deep breath.
âNot quite, but my question is answered.â Li Qiye shook his head.
âYoung Noble, the mecha was slain by Desolate Ancestor, we donât have anything left.â She calmed down and said.
âNo, there is something else hidden here unbeknown to outsiders.â Li Qiye smiled.
â!â She became cautious after hearing this.
âIf I want it, I would have taken it already and thereâs nothing you can do to stop me.â Li Qiye said.
âHow presumptuous of me.â She bowed: âYou are extraordinary, Young Noble, you surely donât covet our scrap metals.â
âI just want to take a look, will you open it or do I have to force it open?â He said.
Her expression changed repeatedly. Eventually, she gritted her teeth and said: âIf you wish to see, then I will have to violate the ancestral teachings.â
She led them to a small dao platform on top of a broken peak. It looked to be on the verge of crumbling.
Li Qiye inhaled after seeing it and said: âSo many alchemy materials gathered here for what reason? This liquid is meant for vitality replenishment.â
âYour knowledge is incredible.â She was moved since he recognized the purpose of the contraption after one whiff.
âWhatâs gestating below?â Li Qiye asked.
âThe truth is, I do not know either, Young Noble. I am only carrying out the ancestral teachings.â She smiled wryly.
âWhat are they?â He said.
âWe pour recovery liquid down the platform every thousand years, the more precious, the better. Iâve done it five times already, that was my limit.â She said.
