chapter 6236: leave it up to fate
coldblade was startled because li qiye spoke of the next step in such a casual and simple manner. she felt that he wasnât making things up despite being a mortal or a new cultivator.
âso the life granted from the sacred source is the key, changing its essence into something permanent.â she murmured, believing him more and more with each repetition of the phrase.
âwe have a continent ahead.â li xian pointed forward and woke her up from her stupor.
âsuch a massive continent in old ruin, itâs amazing.â another young genius said.
âmost likely rebuilt recently.â princess chen said.
the boat made it to the shore and everyone left the boat. coldblade glanced ahead and said: âhere, i must go somewhere else.â
âthank you for taking us along.â orchidcore bowed.
âwhere are you going, senior?â princess chen was curious.
âthe boundless eruption implies the presence of a great vein. i wish to find its sources and cultivate there.â coldblade revealed.
âto reach the imperial level.â the group understood her goal.
âi hope so, itâs not easy and i need help.â she said with a smile before telling orchidcore: âiâm not the only one here, other pseudo-emperors want to find the answer here too.â
âother pseudo-emperors.â princess chen became startled.
âthe source of this eruption is perfect for cultivation, no one will miss this chance.â she said.
âwhy not? iâve been here, you woke me up from my name.â the monarch came closer.
âyouâre the one who abandoned us in battle!â she said.
âhey, hey, donât throw baseless accusations around, i was the one who saved you all from that willow geezer and then his senior brother came. wouldnât you run too if you knew there was no chance of winning? i gave you all an opportunity to run but you didnât take it, whoâs the one to blame?â the monarch retorted.
â...â this left the princess speechless because he was right. the monarch did call for a retreat, itâs just that he ran first.
âwe were wrong.â orchidcore smiled wryly.
âdamn right.â the monarch said: âdonât be indecisive during crucial moments, only dumbasses die for no reason against powerful opponents. didnât your master teach you this? donât die over something stupid.â
âso we should run whenever things get tough? always acting as cowards?â princess chen said.
âat least cowards will stay alive, dumb pigs will get gutted.â the monarch said.
âtrue...â li xian murmured.
âokay, okay, donât mislead them now.â li qiye shook his head and said.
âhahaha, am i not right, young noble?â the monarch laughed.
âis that why you fled first?â li qiye said.
âit may have appeared that way on the surface, but i merely went to scout ahead for you, young noble.â the monarch replied.
