Chapter 6219: Your Fortune

“Must you relate everything to your Buddhist pure lands?” The monarch said: “As long as there is enough power, someone can plant it wherever they want, not just the pure lands. This includes immortal lotuses, not just this one.”

“Must you always insult us?” Monk Zhu complained.

The group could only chuckle, becoming too familiar with the monarch’s disdain for Buddhism. Alas, they had no idea why.

“Haha, well, this lotus is good enough for healing purposes.” The monarch salivated and said: “I broke the formation and won’t care for other stuff, just this one.”

“You can’t, the flower has an owner already.” Princess Chen shook her head.

She stared at Li Xian; others did the same.

The temptation was real for cultivators since they lived on the edge of a blade. Having this meant having another lifeline during a moment of crisis.

However, they were sure this was planted by an ancestor of the Li, not a wild flower.

“It’s probably an ancestral lotus...” Li Xian scratched his head.

The lotus could fetch a sky-high price and help his clan persevere. Alas, he also understood the risk of having something so precious.

“It belongs to your clan then.” Princess Chen said, suppressing her desire to do what was right.

“The flower is precious but it is your property.” Orchidcore said, viewing Li Xian as a friend.

“Since you are taking care of it for him, let him follow you.” Li Qiye smirked: “The four of them too, they need to supervise you so that you won’t use it for yourself.”

“What?!” The monarch was going to take the lotus but pulled back after hearing this.

“No, impossible! What kind of silly joke is this? I don’t want five step-children following me everywhere, I would rather die!” He protested.

“As if we want to follow you.” The princess said: “I don’t want to be stuck supervising him.”

“Being able to follow him is a fortune, others don’t have the same luck.” Li Qiye told the princess.

The group exchanged glances.

“Did you hear that, Child? Others kneel and beg to follow me yet I don’t give them a single glance. You best appreciate the once-in-an-epoch opportunity.” The monarch gloated after hearing Li Qiye’s praise.

“But we are cultivators already on top of being students for Orchid Academy, it doesn’t feel right to learn witchcraft.” Orchidcore hesitated.

“Amitabha.” Monk Zhu placed his palms together. Although this witchcraft path was incredible, it might not be suitable for them.

“Should we really follow him?” The princess found this idea strange.

Although Li Qiye was far weaker than them and had no authority, they somehow found him credible and listened to him.

“Don’t even think about it, you commoners cannot learn my unique witchcraft, haha, no talent at all, not to mention being so disobedient.” The monarch laughed.
