the aggressive disciples seeking retribution became frozen upon seeing the emperorâs attitude. they swore to avenge the dead chicken at all cost but it seemed there was more to this young man than meets the eye.
ânot bad.â li qiye glanced at the bones and said: âiâm afraid this is all that is left.â
having said that, he tossed the bones over to the emperor who caught them.
âif i knew you were hungry, i would have personally prepared it for you, immortal.â the emperor said.
the juniors only listened in confusion, not daring to say a word.
âreally now?â li qiye smirked.
âof course, you fixed my dao bone so that chicken was nothing.â the emperor said sincerely: âwould you like more? for example, a mountain immortal tiger, sky soar fish, firestarter shrimp... they are regional delicacies. boil, stew, roast, steam, each different method has a unique taste.â
he seemed to be an expert when it came to food. the juniors salivated while listening.
of course, they werenât qualified to eat these dishes, only emperors and desolate gods.
as for watcher tiger, it became tense and staggered backward after hearing âmountain immortal tigerâ.
âlater, i am a bit sleepy and will rest now.â li qiye yawned before entering the courtyard and closing the door.noÌv(el)b\\jnn
âi will bother you again after your rest, immortal.â alch-deer emperor said.
âwe got lucky, right?â princess chen whispered to her peers.
the supreme being was always casual and willingly answered all of their questions. it seemed this didnât apply to everyone.
âof course.â mu hu said sentimentally, having figured out li qiyeâs true power before the others.
âmaster.â senior brother gong came and bowed to the emperor.
he thought he had offended an important figure - a potentially fatal mistake.
âiâm seeing if the immortal is awake so i can prepare some delicious meals for him.â alch-deer didnât hide his intention.
âimmortal.â huntblade frowned because he knew this was about li qiye.
âhe fixed my crooked dao bone so i have to do my best to show my gratitude.â alch-deer said sincerely.
âthe ancestorâs power is unfathomable.â huntblade was astounded to hear this despite having more inside information.
alch-deerâs dao bone couldnât be fixed. the great alchemist dragon-pill and whale ancestor who was versed in healing arts both failed. alch-deer became an emperor but his grand dao and new power were of no use.
âancestor? what ancestor, you are keeping something from me, thatâs not nice of you.â alch-deer said skeptically.
âyou still donât know?â huntblade realized his disciple had been keeping his mouth shut.
âbrats, what am i missing here?â alch-deer asked the juniors.
âyou never asked, junior uncle.â mu hu said innocently.
âthe only thing youâve learned from your master is how to feign ignorance.â alch-deer commented before asking huntblade: âbrother, speak already.â
âi am not completely sure, but since wisdom ancestor addresses him as an ancestor, we must as well.â huntblade revealed.
âis that so...â alch-deer was astounded.
âwisdom ancestor...â mu hu felt the same way.
âwisdom ancestor?â princess chen asked.
âan ancient ancestor who had governed desolate frontier for a long time, one of the seven disciples just like our progenitor.â mu hu whispered.
âi know of this figure, so thatâs who she is.â orchidcore said.
they never expected the girl to be from the same generation as desolate ancestor and was world-renowned. no wonder why everyone called her âancestorâ in desolate frontier.
