Chapter 6101: Who Is The Oldest?
The absurd statement of Li Qiye being the heavenâs son didnât meet backlash from listeners.
âOnly the heavenâs son can dance with lightning bolts, primal ancestors canât do this.â A regional lord said.
âIâve only heard of people enduring tribulations, not anything remotely close to this.â A desolate god said.
âHas there been any instance like this in Three Immortals? I think some existences used insane methods to overcome the tribulations or even slay them, nothing like this though.â An old ancestor murmured.
âThatâs why someone called him the heavenâs son, imagine a boy growing amidst the lightning bolts so he can play with them, thatâs somehow a logical viewpoint.â A big shot said.
Others exchanged glances and thought this absurd scenario would explain it.
âIs the heaven real, let alone its son?â Someone couldnât help but ask. He wasnât questioning Li Qiyeâs ability since they saw it with their own eyes.
The issue was why would the heavenâs son be in the mortal world?
âThe tribulations are proof of the heavenâs existence.â A desolate god looked up and said.
Before reaching a certain level, cultivators had no idea of the heavenâs existence.
âThen why hasnât a son appeared until now?â Another questioned.
They toyed with the idea of Li Qiye being the heavenâs child. But if these beings were real, how come none had appeared earlier in history?
âHeâs a chosen one, not an actual son but just picked by the high heaven and protected by the tribulations.â Someone shouted confidently.
âSir, Sir, please show mercy.â A fog appeared nearby.
âWhat is it now?â Li Qiye said.
Fog Emissary smiled wryly and said: âSir, please donât kill him. Perhaps he can still be of use.â
âThatâs fine, no rush.â Li Qiye released the heavenly seal and Devil Emissary immediately disappeared.
âBrother Devil, remember that you owe me your life!â Fog Emissary yelled but who knows if Devil Emissary had heard him.
Li Qiye then commanded the water to return to the abyssal well. It regained its original appearance, being filled to the brim once more.
âNo point in staying any longer.â Everyone understood now was the time to leave and did just that.
âYou came just in time, looks like you kept yourself busy.â Li Qiye told Fog Emissary.
âSir, I was busy indeed, gathering information and lucky enough to get some information out of Brother Water.â Fog Emissary responded.
âWhat information?â Six-style didnât have a good impression of him due to the inconsistencies in his responses.
âIâve confirmed that when not counting Nameless, Gold and Devil are the oldest among us, maybe the whole market as well.â Fog said.
âGold is older than me.â A chilling voice answered, invoking the sensation of a serpent crawling into oneâs shirt.
Six-style couldnât help taking one step back.
âAh, Brother Devil, you didnât get far. Perfect, you know more about the emissaries than I do.â Fog said.
âI donât.â Devil Emissary had no emotion in his grating voice. There was nothing kind left in his very being, only evil.
