Chapter 7112: Goldfeather Emperor

“Bam!” Someone landed before Li Qiye, releasing a powerful shockwave.

She was an emperor in a feathery yellow dress that accentuated her curves. Her legs appeared particularly slender as the dress stopped at the knees, revealing her jade skin.

She looked around first before focusing on Li Qiye, feeling slightly confused. As a dragon servant, she was looking for the little chongming bird.

“Have you seen a divine fledgling?” She asked, having lost track of its unique aura.

“Why does it matter?” He waved dismissively, inciting her annoyance.

She had the dragon-servant symbol embroidered on her dress. This carried incredible significance, not to mention her cultivation.

“Where are you from?” She asked.

“From where I should be from.” He smiled.

There were only two explanations for a mortal acting so calm in her presence - he was either a hidden master or an idiot.

“State your faction.” She said.

“No faction, just me.” He smiled.

No matter how closely she looked, she couldn’t see anything strange about him.

“Chong Firmament is on high alert, you'd best return to your home.” She could tell he had no malice and forgave his disrespectful attitude.

“Screech.” Suddenly, she heard a sound coming from his sleeve as she was leaving. She froze before looking back and seeing the fuzzy bird.

“Your Highness, I finally found you.” She celebrated.

The chongming birds, like the other divine beasts, had difficulty with reproduction. This little bird was their newest member, still tiny after ten thousand years.

The dragon servants fell into chaos after the sealing of their immortal lord. Thus, they didn’t watch the little one closely enough in the divine realm.

Its disappearance shocked everyone. Thus, emperors and ancient ancestors initiated a search.

However, the bird returned to Li Qiye’s sleeve to her astonishment.

“Your Highness, please return to the divine realm with me. Everyone is worried about you.” She bowed.

“Did you capture, no, trick Our Highness?” She asked.

A mortal couldn’t possibly capture a pure-blooded divine beast. Thus, he must have somehow tricked the little one.

“It wants to stay in my sleeve, that’s all.” Li Qiye waved his hand.

“Really?” She was skeptical despite seeing it with her own eyes.

“Do I have a reason to lie?” He smiled.

She ignored the question at hand and told him: “You have to go to the divine realm with me.”

“And why is that?” He asked.

She found this surprising because being able to travel to the divine realm was a blessing of three lifetimes. Only emperors and up from the dragon servants were eligible.

“Do you know what the divine realm is?” She asked.

“Just a place, no?” He didn’t care.

“Are you an outsider?” She became anxious and mustered her energy at a potential enemy.

No outsider could enter without permission, given the heightened vigilance. Therefore, he either somehow snuck past them or was too powerful for them to detect.
