Monk Wuâo wanted to leave.
Li Qingshan shook his head. He squatted down and looked at the two stele seriously.
To be honest, his old habits had kicked in.
He couldnât move when he saw the stele.
Monk Wuâo looked at Li Qingshan in confusion. There were no words on these two empty wordless steles. What else was there to see?
However, Li Qingshan didnât think so. He carefully cleaned the tombstone where a corpse was buried.
âAt least you came over and disturbed them. We should at least clean their stele before leaving.â Li Qingshan said as he cleaned the tombstones swiftly. He looked at it satisfactorily and said, âNow it looks much better.â
Monk Wuâo couldnât understand, but he remained silent. He just looked at Li Qingshan quietly.
After Li Qingshan cleaned it, he stood up and was about to leave.
However, in the next second, a line of words appeared in front of his eyes, making him stare blankly.
[You have cleaned it earnestly, activating your maxed-level comprehension skill, and comprehending the Stele World!]
Li Qingshan was about to get up, but when he saw this line of words, he immediately stopped. He looked at the stele and thought in surprise, âYou actually have a Stele World!â
In the next second, Li Qingshan became excited. He hadnât seen Stele World for a long time.
Once the Stele World appeared, it meant that he could understand the life of the deceased.
Li Qingshan sat in front of the tombstone, intending to check out some of the scenes from the life of the deceased buried there.
âWhat are you doing?â Monk Wuâo looked at Li Qingshan in surprise. He didnât leave after wiping it clean. Instead, he sat down. Was he planning to have a heart-to-heart conversation with the tombâs occupant?â
Li Qingshan looked at Monk Wuâo beside him and pulled him to sit down. âListen to my command quietly. Iâll show you the past and present lives.â Li Qingshan brought Monk Wuâo along and activated the Stele World.
In the next moment, their surroundings turned dark, and the world spun. The two worlds seemed to overlap and explode in front of Li Qingshan and Monk wuâo.
An ancient city appeared in front of them.
Monk Wuâo looked at Li Qingshan in surprise. Li Qingshan shook his head and motioned for him to continue watching.
In this Stele World, Li Qingshan looked at the ancient city in front of him and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
Walking into the ancient city, Li Qingshan saw a butcher shop, a teahouse, a breakfast shop, and a tailor shop.
The layout was identical to the city crafted by the Qinling Emperor.
The only difference was that the ancient city here was filled with people. It was bustling with life. The commoners bought meat, drank tea, ate breakfast, and made clothes. It was full of life.
In contrast, the ancient city created by the Qinling Emperor was deathly silent.
âWhy are the two ancient cities exactly the same?â Monk Wuâo asked in surprise.
Li Qingshanâs face darkened. He had a thought in his mind and said, âKeep watching. Time will give us an answer.â
At this moment, a mischievous child ran over from the corner of the street. He came to the front of the butcher shop and shouted, âButcher, my sister asked you to leave us a pound of lean meat. Sheâll pay for it later.â
The butcher chuckled. âQinling, you still call her sister? The elders have already married you, so you should call her wife. But youâre still young. You canât consummate the marriage yet. Having a beautiful wife but unable to enjoy it.â
As soon as he said this, the people who were buying meat around him laughed out loud.
Little Qinlingâs face turned red and he ran away without saying a word.
The laughter of the surrounding people grew louder.
They laughed, but Li Qingshan and Monk Wuâo couldnât.
The two of them looked at each other as the child ran away.
âIs this the future Qinling Emperor?â Li Qingshan said in shock.
He hadnât expected to witness the childhood of the Qinling Emperor in this Stele World.
Monk Wuâo didnât expect this either. He blinked and said, âAt this moment, these people definitely didnât expect that the child they teased would become the absolute ruler of this world in the next hundreds of thousands of years.â As soon as Monk Wuâo finished speaking, the scene suddenly changed.
They saw a small house and the young Qinling Emperor. There was also a slender and beautiful woman who was a few years older than the Qinling Emperor. Her voice was gentle, and she did the housework very quickly.
Li Qingshan knew that this was the sister of the Qinling Emperor, who was also his wife.
âSister, starting tomorrow, I will be cultivating with the clan elders. Youâll be alone at home. You have to take good care of yourself.â The young Qinling Emperor said considerately.
His sister smiled gently. âYou should focus on your cultivation. Leave everything at home to me. I will wait for you to come back.â
The Qinling Emperor nodded excitedly. He felt that such days were the best in the Human World.
There was cultivation that he liked, and there was also his sister that he liked.
When Li Qingshan and Monk Wuâo saw this scene, they didnât sigh.
âFrom this moment onwards, he will slowly embark on the path of becoming the Qinling Emperor, â Monk Wuâo sighed.
Li Qingshan watched silently from the side.
Then, the scene changed continuously.
There were scenes of the Qinling Emperor cultivating diligently, and also scenes of her sister constantly managing household chores.
These scenes flashed by without much pause, but Li Qingshan and Monk Wuâo still managed to capture them.
The scene changed rapidly. In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed. The Qinling Emperor had also grown into a young man with a valiant bearing.
He wanted to go out and explore the world.
He wanted to bring his sister along.
However, his sister refused. She was born unable to cultivate and was as beautiful as a flower. She knew that she would only become a burden to the Qinling Emperor if she went out. She might as well stay in this ancient city and guard their home for the Qinling Emperor..
