chapter 6314: hot pot
âsure.â li qiye smiled and sat down next to them, enjoying the sun.
the juniors became supporters and prepared everything for the desolate god and emperor.
âancestor, our phoenix plant sprouted just in time to have some tea leaves for you.â alch-deer presented a cup of tea.
the juniors didnât dare to say anything since the leaves belonged to solar monarch. he stole them when the monarch was absent.
li qiye took a sip and nodded approvingly: âvolcanic type, reborn in a solar flame. must have required some techniques on your part.â
âyouâre too kind, ancestor.â alch-deer smiled.
âyour primary affinity is alchemy and harmony, where did the solar flame come from?â li qiye asked.
âhahaha, i borrowed some.â alch-deer laughed: âthese leaves in solar monarchâs place were going to expire so i did him a favor of collecting them for him. the timing was perfect, he always bragged about how good they are so i boiled some for you, ancestor, to test them out.â
he didnât turn red at all, turning âstealingâ into âborrowingâ. moreover, he justified it by preparing them for the ancestor, not himself.
âthatâs fine.â li qiye chuckled.
âancestor, shall we start a pot?â huntblade brought over a big pot made from luminous draco-metal.
âpill ancestorâs pot...â mu hu was surprised to see it.
this pot was used by dragon-pill to stir certain alchemy ingredients. the emperor might go crazy to see if being used as a cooking pot.
âperfect, i have this lamb to sweeten the pot.â alch-deer laughed and tossed in a recently hunted lamb.
the juniors became frozen again. this so-called lamb was a black-cloud rider lamb, a treasure of tortoise emperor.
âwe gathered some nice hot peppers too.â huntblade took out a bunch with a golden fiery glow.
âwe should properly welcome you back to the sect, ancestor. to do otherwise is unfilial and shameful, we wonât be able to meet the progenitor with our head held high then.â huntblade added.
âwell said.â li qiye smiled: âthere is hope for desolate frontier because, at the very least, you two are humble enough to know the imperial path is nothing.â
âwe have let down the progenitor so we canât afford to be prideful.â alch-deer said.
âtake your time and it will come.â li qiye nodded.
âthank you for your guidance, ancestor.â alch-deer bowed.
li qiye chuckled before glancing at the horizon.
ârumble!â a fiery trail shot across the sky.
âthis is...â the emperor and desolate god looked up.
âwho is it?â huntblade focused his vision but didnât see the figure clearly.
âitâs in star ocean. maybe solar monarch?â alch-deer guessed.
âno one else is there right now, so it has to be solar monarch.â huntblade said.
âthe mythical prison, right?â orchidcore asked mu hu.
âyes.â mu hu nodded: âordinary people canât come, the prerequisite is having anima due to the ferocious beasts there.â
âraa!â a roar echoed across desolate frontier.
next, a gray miasma erupted from a main mountain in imperial domain. it swept through the land and killed all vegetation and trees.
â?!â the youths became afraid.
âclank!â a gigantic shadow rushed into the air, causing loud clanks due to the chains wrapping around it.
