Chapter 6236: Leave It Up To Fate

Coldblade was startled because Li Qiye spoke of the next step in such a casual and simple manner. She felt that he wasn’t making things up despite being a mortal or a new cultivator.

“So the life granted from the sacred source is the key, changing its essence into something permanent.” She murmured, believing him more and more with each repetition of the phrase.

“We have a continent ahead.” Li Xian pointed forward and woke her up from her stupor.

“Such a massive continent in Old Ruin, it’s amazing.” Another young genius said.

“Most likely rebuilt recently.” Princess Chen said.

The boat made it to the shore and everyone left the boat. Coldblade glanced ahead and said: “Here, I must go somewhere else.”

“Thank you for taking us along.” Orchidcore bowed.

“Where are you going, Senior?” Princess Chen was curious.

“The boundless eruption implies the presence of a great vein. I wish to find its sources and cultivate there.” Coldblade revealed.

“To reach the imperial level.” The group understood her goal.

“I hope so, it’s not easy and I need help.” She said with a smile before telling Orchidcore: “I’m not the only one here, other pseudo-emperors want to find the answer here too.”

“Other pseudo-emperors.” Princess Chen became startled.

“The source of this eruption is perfect for cultivation, no one will miss this chance.” She said.

“Do you know anyone in specific?” Li Xian asked.

“Sky-raiser Crown Prince, Ruyi Monarch, Bronzeblade Ancestor...” Orchidcore said several titles.

As for Coldblade, she turned toward Li Qiye and said: “Young Noble, when we are done here, I would like to invite you to God Frontier so that our ancestor can meet you, would that be alright?”

Her tone was of respect, enough to shock anyone given the disparity in status. This was certainly not just a simple visit.

“Leave it up to fate.” Li Qiye responded.

His answer shocked the young ones. Being able to meet Far-dao was an incredible opportunity worthy of pride, yet Li Qiye spoke as if Far-dao would be the fortunate one.

“I hope fate will be kind.” Coldblade sighed, not expressing anger.

“Goodbye now, be careful.” Coldblade told the rest before her boat disappeared ahead.

“What do we do now?” Orchidcore asked the group.

“What else but to hunt for treasures? Let me tell you, there is a great secret here.” A boisterous laughter answered him.

This scared everyone, causing them to jolt backward. Someone came out from a bush nearby - Black Witch Monarch who had fled not long ago.

Li Qiye smiled, not surprised to see him in the slightest.

“You still dare to show yourself before us?” Princess Chen glared at him.

“Why not? I’ve been here, you woke me up from my name.” The monarch came closer.

“You’re the one who abandoned us in battle!” She said.

“Hey, hey, don’t throw baseless accusations around, I was the one who saved you all from that Willow geezer and then his senior brother came. Wouldn’t you run too if you knew there was no chance of winning? I gave you all an opportunity to run but you didn’t take it, who’s the one to blame?” The monarch retorted.

“...” This left the princess speechless because he was right. The monarch did call for a retreat, it’s just that he ran first.

“We were wrong.” Orchidcore smiled wryly.

“Damn right.” The monarch said: “Don’t be indecisive during crucial moments, only dumbasses die for no reason against powerful opponents. Didn’t your master teach you this? Don’t die over something stupid.”

“So we should run whenever things get tough? Always acting as cowards?” Princess Chen said.

“At least cowards will stay alive, dumb pigs will get gutted.” The monarch said.

“True...” Li Xian murmured.

“Okay, okay, don’t mislead them now.” Li Qiye shook his head and said.

“Hahaha, am I not right, Young Noble?” The monarch laughed.

“Is that why you fled first?” Li Qiye said.

“It may have appeared that way on the surface, but I merely went to scout ahead for you, Young Noble.” The monarch replied.
