chapter 6255: massive corpse
âwhat should we do then?â princess chen asked.
âit would be nice if we could bring this leaf back.â mu hu salivated while gazing at the green continent.
âhaha, bring it back? if you somehow have the ability to cut it down and bring it back, your desolate ancestor will also chop down your head.â the monarch laughed.
âwhy?â mu hu didnât understand.
âare you still pretending to be an idiot? this is the resting place of bodhi ancestor.â the monarch said with a disdainful glance.
âwhat?!â the youths blurted in astonishment.
âd-did you say this is... bod-dhi ancestorâs resting place?â the princess stammered and looked around, not seeing a tomb.
âwhere?â li xian didnât find anything resembling a grave.
âhah, youâre walking on his corpse right now.â the monarch was rather amused.
â!â the group jolted from this revelation and immediately looked down.
âyouâre...â princess chen stared at him and stammered: âyouâre saying the burnt tree... is bodhi ancestor?â
âamitabha.â monk zhu came up with the same answer and placed his palms together.
ânot too stupid, haha.â the monarch laughed: âi told you bodhi ancestor was buried here. now do you believe me?â
âis this true?â li xian looked around and only saw massive branches in the sky, burnt to a charcoal texture.
âiâm afraid so. bodhi ancestor must have failed the ascension.â orchidcore said in a daze.
âbecoming an immortal or a pseudo-one isnât that easy.â li qiye said: âthree immortals have all the right circumstances but itâs not enough.â
âhow many are fortunate enough? but well, being a person is good enough, just enjoy life as it is, no need to become an immortal.â the monarch said.
âare you consoling or encouraging yourself?â li qiye said.
âhah, young noble, i think itâs nice enough to be alive. iâm not ambitious enough to think about lofty heights.â the monarch laughed.
âbut didnât you claim to be one-and-only or something?â li qiye said.
âjust nonsensical stuff, thatâs all, donât take me seriously.â the monarch said.
âyou said it more than once. actually, whenever you opened your mouth.â the princess interjected.
âforget it, youâre just a child, what do you know?â he waved his hand dismissively.
âitâs your business, but...â li qiye stretched it out before finishing: âin my opinion, black bull will continue and might become an immortal.â
âbah.â the monarch became agitated and said: âbullshit, him and his terrible personality, an immortal? he is hopeless compared to me, iâll be the first.â
âblack bull?â mu hu asked.
âyou, an immortal?â the princess focused on the monarch.
âchild, if that inferior piece of crap can become immortal, then iâll be a true immortal.â the monarch said haughtily.
âyou two are pretty much the same.â li qiye shook his head.
âhaha, young noble, you canât put it like that. my roots and everything else are just better. plus, if you guide me more on this path, iâll ascend sooner.â
