chapter 6241: insignificant
bronze-bladeâs revelation made the group wonder.
âyou were just like him, senior?â li xian said softly.
the current pseudo-emperor was humble and amicable like the grandpa in the neighborhood, not acting like an imperious cultivator in the slightest.
if it wasnât for his dao aura and muscular figure, they would mistake him for an old mortal.
âif you had seen my young self, you would have found me more annoying than my grandson.â the old man shook his head: âi thought i was the greatest in the world and my posture matched this thought...â
he smiled wryly while recalling the past.
âwell, you were a supreme genius, senior.â orchidcore spoke truthfully.
if his cultivation had not stopped improving suddenly and followed the same pace, he would be a leading primal ancestor right now. arrogance often came with success, and he was no exception.
âi certainly believed it.â the old man smiled: âenough talent and power to back it up, but it turned out i was only a frog under the well.â
the group listened attentively to the great geniusâ honest life experiences.
âthis lasted several centuries and i realized this was my first setback. to put it bluntly, i never paid the price or struggled before, i didnât earn anything up until this point. i started on a high floor of a pavilion compared to another, thinking that i was higher than heaven.â he finished.
ârealizing this is a good thing. you fixed your incompletely grand dao and mended your foundation, it is not too late.â li qiye said.
âyou can tell, young noble?â he became surprised.
âthe dao mend is nearly complete and you are prepared to earn your dao fruit.â li qiye smiled.
he stared at li qiye in astonishment.
âhow do you know this?â princess chen didnât note anything special about the old man but li qiye didnât answer.
âyou will finally become a grand emperor, senior.â orchidcore remarked and was excited for him.
âthe young noble is right, i wasted centuries drinking and wallowing in despair. living in that dark period made me realize how weak my dao heart was compared to my cultivation. that hindered development.â the old man responded.
