Chapter 1008: Meeting
One battle to shock the world; the great Blood-devil army was annihilated; its overlords were murdered. Even the leader who was considered the greatest after Immortal Emperor Chen Xue couldn't escape death.
Blood flowed through the ruins and filled the Barren Earth. Even after several days, the stench of blood remained. Anyone who smelled it would shiver uncontrollably.
In just one night, the southern region became quiet. The once-arrogant Blood race and all the other powerful existences, including Godkings and those buried underground, were all quiet.
"The Blood-devil Tribe won't be able to rise for another three generations." Even a Blood ancestor spoke with forlorn.
All of their ancestors had died in the battle. From now on, it wouldn't be an easy task for the fallen tribe to rise again.
Some felt sorry while others were ambivalent about the end of the Blood-devils. Of course, there were those who were celebrating as well… The tribe that started from Wang Dongtian's generation had flourished too much. They were unified, unyielding, and ruthless. Eventually, they became the biggest branch among the Blood Race of this region.
Ultimately, he was the reason for their downfall. The great efforts from several generations were all ruined due to his ambition! He was both their hero and sinner.
On the second day after the destruction of the Blood-devils, a different branch of the Blood Race, the Crimson Night Kingdom, sent out a message about the inauguration of their new king.
They supported a new king overnight. Moreover, this new king was an unknown disciple from the kingdom — Si Yuanyuan!
A few disciples in the kingdom couldn't help but ask: "Who is Si Yuanyuan?"
A fameless disciple suddenly became the new king — this was a very difficult matter to accept, especially within a kingdom that had two emperors.
However, no one dared to question her crowning because something terrifying had happened in the kingdom on the day prior.
A few people managed to find out the real story. On that night, a very ancient Godking of the kingdom came into being. He personally exiled the majority of the imperial family, including more than ten ancestors.
"Immortal Emperor Chi Ye's first branch once again has control over the kingdom. All of the Storm God's confidants were either dismissed from their post or banished!" An informed person secretly sent out this news.
The appearance of this old Godking allowed for Si Yuanyuan to become the new ruler overnight. It was a done deal, no one could do anything about it.
The complete transfer of power was the Thunder Tower Lord's promise to Li Qiye. At the same time, this was a chance of rebirth for the kingdom.
This was because Si Yuanyuan was not only a person held in high regards by Li Qiye, the Bloodbull Godfiend had the same opinion of her. This had quite some significance for the kingdom.
Even though it was impossible to avoid spilling blood in this internal power struggle, they were able to have a new opportunity and escape the same fate of destruction like the Blood-devil Tribe.
"The Blood Race is changing completely, this is the passing of an era!" A wise man from the Blood Race recognized that something was amiss. The transformation of two great branches in the Blood Clan meant that the Bloods in the southern region will move in a different direction from now on!
While the southern region underwent these changes, Li Qiye and Su Yonghuang's group had returned to the Holy City.
Inside their residence, a pleasant voice could be heard. This was a relaxing Buddhist chant with an unspeakable mysticism.
Su Yonghuang entered the room to find Li Qiye lying on Chen Baojiao; his head was resting on her firm and plump breasts while his legs were placed on Li Shuangyan. He closed his eyes and had a very comfortable and pleased expression.
Li Shuangyan was holding a Buddhist scripture and reading the profundities of this faith out loud to Li Qiye. At the same time, Chen Baojiao was peeling fruits and gently feeding them to her Young Noble.
Su Yonghuang, as the master, angrily glared at him after seeing him enjoying this situation so much. Alas, he deserved this type of emperor-like treatment. It was nothing compared to his overall accomplishments.
Li Qiye didn't bother opening his eyes and gently tapped the chair next to him while leisurely speaking: "Sit down."
Su Yonghuang sat down next to him and was annoyed by his complacent state: "Don't forget, I am your master!"
Li Qiye finally opened his eyes to look at Su Yonghuang who was within his reach and smiled: "I know, you took advantage of me."
"Who would want to take advantage of you!" Even the noble Su Yonghuang had a hint of coquetry as she glared at him. 1
Li Shuangyan stopped her chanting. Even someone as cold as her couldn't help but simper.
Su Yonghuang looked over at her then to Chen Baojiao and spoke with a noble aura: "You are resting on a beauty's chest in this debaucherous manner while listening to Buddhist chants, don't you think this is disrespectful to Buddha?"
"You are mistaken there. In this vast world, I am the greatest. Just a Buddha is nothing. And even if Buddha is the greatest in this world, doesn't he love all the common people? Anyway, he is not that different from us." Li Qiye smilingly replied in a carefree manner.
"Then why are you listening to his scriptures?" Su Yonghuang was curious. She had never seen him listen to these chants before. It had always been Li Shuangyan reading the grand dao writings to him.
"Because I am Buddha and Buddha is me. I am not listening to the Buddhist Scripture, I am accepting the charm of the Buddhist doctrine." Li Qiye smiled: "This is like a top class chef enjoying the delicacies cooked by another chef!"
"What are you trying to say?" Su Yonghuang wasn't expecting this response and stared at Li Qiye who was still resting on Chen Baojiao's milky breasts.
Li Qiye got up at this time to face Su Yonghuang. The two were only inches from each other, so close that they could even hear each other's breathing. He gently lifted her beautiful chin while she looked at his profound eyes, letting him do as he pleased.
"Look at me, yes, just like that." Li Qiye spoke in a bewitching manner, causing others to be lost in his voice.
The two continued to stare at each other. Li Qiye carefully looked at her bright eyes. His gaze pierced through her pupils and could reach the deepest part of her mind.
At this time, both Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao thought that Li Qiye was going to flirt with her, so they couldn't help themselves from chuckling.
He continued to stare at her while her breathing became more rapid. A strange and misleading atmosphere arose, causing her heart to beat faster.
"A complete Yang Saint Physique is worthy of its fame!" Li Qiye let go of her chin and nodded: "This is a very pure version of the Extreme Yang Physique and can absolutely be considered unrivaled. You will reach grand completion before Li Shuangyan, so if she manages to surpass you… that would be too big of a letdown."
Su Yonghuang glared at him and snappily retorted: "Letting you down? Those words should be coming from me since I'm your master!"
Li Qiye sat back down and rested on Chen Baojiao's chest once more before smiling leisurely: "Don't forget that it was me who taught you the supreme law."
Su Yonghuang snorted in response and spoke while looking at him: "I have something to tell you. Half a year ago, a woman came to our sect."
Li Qiye didn't really care, so he casually asked: "Who?"
Su Yonghuang responded: "A woman who calls herself the Middle Continent Princess! She almost flipped our sect over and only left after she heard that you weren't there." 2
"Middle Continent Princess!" He immediately sat up with a serious expression after hearing this.
"I almost forgot to tell you about this." Chen Baojiao quickly added: "It is that Earth Immortal back at the corpse burial ground. Young Noble, in our opinion, she is definitely antagonistic towards you."
"She is very powerful. I don't think anyone in our sect can stop her. If you know her, then you should know that it would have been easy for her to destroy our sect back then." Su Yonghuang spoke solemnly.
As the sect master, she must always be thinking about the safety of the sect.
"What did she say?" Li Qiye slowly asked while looking at Su Yonghuang.
"She wanted to meet someone named Chu Yuntian and was unrelenting about it!" She answered.
Li Qiye became silent after hearing this. This was an ill-fated connection inadvertently caused by him. In the end, it still had to come.
He eventually lifted his head and inquired: "What else did she say?"
Su Yonghuang said: "Before leaving, she said that if we find Chu Yuntian, tell him to come to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau, she will be staying there for a while."
Having said that, she glanced back at Li Qiye and revealed: "She also added that if Chu Yuntian doesn't come to see her, she swears to destroy the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect one day!"
Li Qiye sighed softly after hearing this. This was started by him so it should be ended by him. Who would have thought that after so many years, this ill-fated connection still remained?
"Who is Chu Yuntian?" Su Yonghuang noticed something from Li Qiye's expression and asked: "Why did she come to Cleansing Incense to find Chu Yuntian?!"
The word for coquetry here can be problematic and situational in an English translation. Coquetry/flirting/coy/childish are all part of this word, 嗲. As a noun, it refers to someone who speaks and acts in an overly gentle way that others can’t resist feeling charmed or frightened. As an adjective, it describes the extremely gentle quality of one’s tone or actions. The word originated in Shanghai in the first half of the 20th century. It is believed that “dia” was derived from the English word “dear”. When Shanghai people first embraced “dia” in their everyday talk in the 1960s, a Shanghai newspaper launched a series of debates over it. Conservatives held that “dia” described a woman who intentionally plays up her feminine character to allure men. They saw it as a negative word. However, others argued that the word could be used in a positive sense and should be accepted. Now, the word can mean “good” or “wonderful”, although it more often emphasizes a woman’s appearance and inner qualities. I suppose the equivalent for Koreans would be Aegyo. ↩ Princess Zhong Zhou, ship arc. ↩Chapter 1009: Happy Time
Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao both knew a little about this issue. Back in the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground, their group had talked to the princess about Chu Yuntian before. However, the two of them didn't know the entire story.
Li Qiye sighed softly and said: "Who Chu Yuntian is doesn't matter right now. I will go to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau to see her."
"A few things need to have a conclusion. Otherwise, it will haunt you forever." Li Qiye felt a bit helpless and smiled wryly after saying this.
"I'll go with you!" Su Yonghuang said in a serious manner: "This Middle Continent Princess is definitely not easy to mess with."
"I know, she has always been a stubborn person." Li Qiye gently shook his head: "But I have something else I want you to do. I have some treasure troves that I need you to bring back!"
"What kind of treasures?" Su Yonghuang had to ask. The word "treasure" wasn't so simple when it came from Li Qiye.
"Not much, just some secret stashes. I accidentally destroyed a few imperial lineages back in the Stone Medicine World and took in their troves, this will be good for our Cleansing Incense." Li Qiye said nonchalantly.
Such words left the three tongue-tied and wide-eyed! Secret treasuries from imperial lineages? They were naturally amazing, but their Young Noble spoke as if they were only common treasures.
If other people found out, they would definitely go crazy over them!
"Now is the time when our Cleansing Incense needs to be enriched." Li Qiye looked at Su Yonghuang and slowly said: "It must have even stronger weapons and better resources. This responsibility lies with the sect master."
Su Yonghuang took a deep breath and responded solemnly: "Rest assured, I will implement it without letting you down!"
At this time, the roles seemed to be reversed. Su Yonghuang, as the master, was actually listening to Li Qiye and even relying on him. He had become an indispensable part of her life. Without him, she wouldn't know what to do despite her wisdom and grace.
"Then I'll return to Cleansing Incense first." Eventually, she deeply stared at him before speaking: "You should be careful when you go to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau."
"Don't worry, I have already planned on doing so for a while now. There are some things that I need to figure out." Li Qiye calmly answered.
"Right, the Space Crossing Earthworm has gone to the plateau as well. I think it began its journey about six months ago." Su Yonghuang told Li Qiye before leaving.
"Little Autumn is very powerful right now. He was so noisy about wanting to go to the plateau, but the sect master did not let him do anything recklessly. Later on, when he found out that the Nalanda Temple was opening, he couldn't wait any longer and clamored about going. Eventually, the sect master agreed." Chen Baojiao told Li Qiye.
"This brat." Li Qiye shook his head. He knew why Little Autumn wanted to go to the plateau. He was not aiming for Nalanda but rather the Ancient Void Temple!
After Su Yonghuang left, he sat back down on Chen Baojiao's bewitching breasts.
"Young Noble, I thought you were going to kiss the sect master earlier." Chen Baojiao pursed her lips into a smile while blinking her pretty eyes.
"Really?" Li Qiye lazily responded while slightly raising his brows.
"It seemed like Young Noble didn't dare to do it. Is it because she is your master so you feel some dread or fear inside?" Chen Baojiao laughed softly.
Such words left Li Shuangyan slightly blushed. Chen Baojiao was far more daring than her in this aspect.
"Dread? Fear?" Li Qiye couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "There is nothing that can make your Young Noble feel dread or fear. Instead of flirting with the sect master, I'm better off getting more intimate with you."
As he was speaking, he grabbed her breasts and kneaded it through her dress.
Chen Baojiao's breasts were plump and tall, round and full. It occupied his entire hand and felt incredible to the touch. With Li Qiye's gentle caress, it seemed to be towering even more!
She, who was still an innocent girl, lost her mind after being touched by her Young Noble like this. She felt as if she was floating while her body became hotter.
"Dear…" She let out an intimate hum while caught up in the mood. While holding onto a glistening and juicy fruit with her mouth, she couldn't help but bend her head down to feed it to her Young Noble. 1
Li Qiye gently lifted her beautiful, soul-stealing face and initiated a passionate kiss. Even though the beauty was inexperienced, she still responded steamily to her Young Noble.
Their blazing kiss turned Li Shuangyan's cheeks red while she stood to the side. She felt quite flustered as well.
When the two separated, Chen Baojiao was completely red as if she was drunk. Her initially tall and plump breasts were making powerful waves, painting quite an alluring spectacle! 2
Li Qiye smilingly glanced over at the blushing Li Shuangyan and gently gestured: "Shuangyan, come over here lest people say that I favor one side more than the other."
Such teasing left Li Shuangyan in shambles due to embarrassment. Contrary to her ice-cold demeanor, she was even shyer than Chen Baojiao.
Despite her shy nature, Chen Baojiao's fiery personality made her much bolder. She winked at Li Shuangyan: "Big Sister Shuangyan, one has to seize the opportunity or it will pass by."
Li Shuangyan was feeling very bashful; she looked down and played with her sleeves. Her usual arrogant self was at a loss.
Li Qiye grabbed her and laughed: "Little Shuang does not have the style of a big sister, Baojiao will make fun of you for this in the future."
While being spoiled with a hug from her Young Noble, the shy Shuangyan mustered some courage out of nowhere and kissed him softly before becoming lost again.
Li Qiye chuckled and gently cupped her chin before giving her a slow kiss full of adoration and tenderness.
Unlike Chen Baojiao, Li Shuangyan was much shyer and just left the kissing to her Young Noble. However, after his relentless passionate kisses, she also felt his love and began to respond shyly. She slightly exposed her sweet tongue like a blossoming lilac bud…
As the fiery session went on, Li Shuangyan became immersed and passionately met her Young Noble's advance. She clung to his neck and wanted nothing more than to become one with him.
"Dear, you have to love me too!" Chen Baojiao grew bolder and became aroused as well while watching the other two kissing. She couldn't stop herself from joining in as well.
In just a moment, an erotic atmosphere filled the entire building as the three continued on their kissing endeavor…
It had been several days since the group got together again. During this time, Li Qiye gave them pointers on cultivation. After handing the treasuries to Su Yonghuang, Li Qiye wanted to travel to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau.
Before leaving, Li Qiye turned into a different person, a young man with an elegant and scholarly temperament. However, there was a sense of openness emanating from his brows and an expression of freedom from looking at his back.
"Young Noble, this is…?" Both Chen Baojiao and Li Shuangyan were caught off guard because their Young Noble had never given a damn about anything and had no need to turn into someone else before.
"Chu Yuntian." Li Qiye smiled: "Since the Middle Continent Princess wants to meet Chu Yuntian, I'll let her meet Chu Yuntian."
"Isn't Chu Yuntian dead already?" Li Shuangyan was puzzled because back at the corpse burial ground when the Young Noble was talking about him with the princess, it sounded like he was already dead.
Li Qiye smiled mysteriously and slowly said: "This is a secret."
"The princess wants to meet the real Chu Yuntian." Su Yonghuang looked at him and asked: "Does that mean you are Chu Yuntian?"
"Chu Yuntian…" Li Qiye gazed at the horizon. After a while, he withdrew his gaze and smiled lightly: "There is no Chu Yuntian in this world. If he doesn't exist, how could he be dead?"
The girls glanced at each other. They could guess a few secrets after hearing this, but if their Young Noble didn't want to reveal it, they wouldn't ask.
Near the time of parting, both Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao didn't want to leave their Young Noble. Li Shuangyan was more restrained. Her cold eyes occasionally stole glances at him. Her chilling demeanor did not lessen her charm.
Chen Baojiao was much bolder. She stood by him and held his hand with a clear unwillingness to part.
"Fine, I'll give you time to say goodbye." Su Yonghuang smiled wryly and angrily glared at Li Qiye. She understood that he had given the two girls some love potions.
After Su Yonghuang left, Chen Baojiao coquettishly put her arms around his waist and asked: "Young Noble, may we go to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau with you?"
"You have to be sensible." Li Qiye gently caressed her hair and said: "The secret treasuries are of utmost importance. You are all responsible for escorting the sect master back safely. After doing so, if you want to come, then do so. I'll be staying at the Buddhist Funeral Plateau for a long time."
"Long Live Young Noble!!" The beauty sprang up and cheered excitedly. At this time, she couldn't help but give him a hot kiss.
"Okay, it is time to go." Li Qiye smiled and shook his head.
Li Shuangyan was still reserved, but it was time to part. She couldn't restrain herself and gently looked up to give him a soft kiss as well.
"Go, there is still a lot of time. Wait until I'm done with the plateau, I will come back to the sect and stay for cultivation." Li Qiye comforted her.
The icy beauty finally cracked a smile. At this time, she was extremely beautiful like the coming of spring!
"Dear" here is a complete localization. 公子爷 or Young Noble 爷 is a flirtatious or even more respectful way of saying Young Noble. There's no real direct translation here since 爷 means grandpa, old gentleman, sir, master of a house. Dear is a close one since it is still respectful and not as intimate as honey/love because that's not their relationship. ↩ I didn't sign up for this. ↩Chapter 1010: Buddhist Funeral Plateau
After leaving the Holy City, Li Qiye went to the Buddhist Funeral Plateau alone. Because he was not in a hurry, he was cultivating during the trip as well.
Back during the fight against the Blood-devil Tribe, he devoured half of the treasure blood from the kingdom. This was extremely nutritious to him and also gave him other benefits, thus he needed to digest it in order to fully utilize it.
At the same time, after unlocking the seal on his dao foundation, he became a tiger that had just left the mountain. His foundation was already solid before, but after the seal, he refined it once more. After removing the seal, if he were to enter the Virtuous Paragon realm right now, his cultivation path would surge greatly.
Of course, he was not in a rush to begin the path of heaven by rushing to open a heavenly dao. He slowly took his time and refined his dao foundation some more.
In his eyes, he must complete the Nine Ants. Right now, he had created the three vessels, but there was still a long way to go. In order to perfect the nine ants, he needed them to work together and not stay as independent existences.
At the same time, Li Qiye also had his own idea about his heavenly dao. He wanted to fuse together several supreme things in order to create a supreme grand dao that belonged only to him. It should be capable of being referred to as the number one dao in all the eons! Thus, the path was still far off. This was only the beginning, he had a long way to go.
Despite his training along the way, it didn't take long before he eventually entered the plateau.
The Buddhist Funeral Plateau was at the westernmost point of the Barren Earth. It covered a large expanse to the extent that no one knew how big it was.
It was considered the tallest location in the Mortal Emperor World, the place closest to the firmament.
One could see the clear blue sky once they entered the plateau, as if they could touch it by merely reaching out with their hand. In this place, people could truly feel the immensity of this world.
There was also a majestic sensation. However, this aura was not overbearing or rough at all. It had an indescribable gentleness, like the gentle breeze in spring that would welcome all newcomers or like a mother softly caressing her children.
One would forget many things upon entering. This gave the gentle feeling of home. People would become lost in this sensation!
They would faintly hear the sounds of Buddhist chants. It didn't come from any other place but from the depths of their own hearts. It was as if there was a Buddha meditating inside.
"Buddhist Funeral Plateau…" Li Qiye entered and felt the Buddhist sensation touching his face. He couldn't help but murmur: "After millions of years, it became increasingly stronger. I am actually eager to see if the day will come when the Buddhist doctrine will defeat all else!"
Li Qiye smiled while looking at this blue world that was so close to the sky before continuing on.
Despite being the highest location in the Mortal Emperor World, it was not a difficult place to get to. On the contrary, there were people everywhere here.
There were a lot of followers in this place. They would bow after every step. Many of them were cultivators; even these ones respectfully headed for the depths of the plateau.
There were towns everywhere in this place. Of course, there were more temples of the Buddhist faith. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that there was one temple for every peak.
Their sizes varied. Some only consisted of one room while others carried a grand aura with more than ten thousand monks as if it was a huge city.
The Buddhist Funeral Plateau was one of the twelve burial grounds. Many people would shiver when talking about these burial grounds since they understood the dangers within.
However, no one would sense anything dangerous after entering the Buddhist Funeral Plateau. This was a place with Buddha in every household and temples everywhere. Visitors and worshipers were in abundance in this prosperous land. No one would believe that this was considered a dangerous ground.
No one knew why it was considered one of the twelve. Some even said that it was safer than anywhere else in this world. There were no inter-sect disputes here. It was very peaceful because the citizens and cultivators here had taken up the Buddhist doctrine. Thus, they rarely competed in mundane matters.
Because of this, very few people knew why this plateau was listed among places like the Heavenly Corpse Burial Ground or the Prime Ominous Grave.
Buddhism was in decline. In the nine worlds, there were fewer than few Buddhist lineages. However, there was only one lineage in the plateau, Buddhism!
Many people would bring up the Nalanda Temple after talking about the plateau or the Heavenly Buddhist Kingdom. However, not all the temples here were under the jurisdiction of the Nalanda Temple.
Among the thousands upon thousands of monasteries here, only eighteen temples were not under Nalanda's order.
In this place, there were many cultivators who came from the other great lineages in this world; some even from the other eight worlds.
Legend states that those who stayed at the plateau for a long time, regardless of whether they were mortals or cultivators, would start to gain an affinity towards Buddhism. Even the most powerful cultivators would join Buddhism after a long time.
It was a land of Buddhism, so not many experts were willing to stay here for long. They were afraid of the plateau affecting their dao heart.
Of course, there were also those with strong dao hearts who liked to come here. They wanted to borrow the power of the plateau to train their dao heart. Nevertheless, some failed and from then on, they would become members of the Buddhist doctrine.
Li Qiye walked among the plateau and saw all sorts of people. There were mortals, cultivators, humans, Bloods, demons, golems… People came and went, resulting in a very bustling community.
Gold and jade, as well as green bricks and white tiles, painted the numerous temples in a glorious splendor. There were also more humble temples in the form of huts…
Anyone would be astounded by the number of temples in this place. Perhaps there were more temples here than the rest of the nine worlds combined; the number from the other worlds might not reach ten percent compared to the ones here.
Li Qiye felt the buddhist affinity in this place with each passing step. He remained nonchalant and carefree. Even though this Buddhist presence in the plateau was unfathomable, it couldn't affect Li Qiye's dao heart in the slightest.
At this time, a small distortion came about. Li Qiye stopped and took out an item. It was the yellow silk cloth.
A little figure condensed on the cloth. This was the existence that Li Qiye called "little girl".
The voice of the little figure was very pleasant and clear. She asked with surprise: "Where are you at?"
Li Qiye smiled: "Buddhist Funeral Plateau. Oh? Why do you suddenly feel interested? I've been to many places, but you didn't seem to care before."
"Because there is a force I'm familiar with in this place!" The little figure tilted her head and said: "Buddhist Funeral Plateau… I've never heard of it before."
Li Qiye smiled and said: "Because it didn't have this name back then. Later on, a person named Di Shi came and changed this location, giving it the name Buddhist Funeral Plateau." 1
"Di Shi?" The small figure tilted her head as if trying to recall this person in her memories.
Li Qiye slowly said: "He is an extremely ancient existence to the point where people have forgotten the era he was in, to the point where people have forgotten about someone with the name Di Shi."
The little figure was unconvinced and said with a sneer: "Hmph, even older than me?"
Li Qiye smiled: "Don't be like that. Although you are an old grandma who can't get any older, there are even older eras. There's no need for me to say more about this matter."
"You…" The little figure was quite furious after hearing this. It coldly spoke: "Bah, you're the old grandma!"
Li Qiye continued on: "What is this force that you are familiar with? Since you don't know the Buddhist Funeral Plateau, it wouldn't be the Buddhist affinity."
"A very powerful force, it controls everything in this place." The little figure carefully sensed it and shook her head: "I have lost my body so I can't feel it completely."
"I know what it is." Li Qiye answered: "Because there is a broken pot here, an unfathomable pot. You should know what it is."
"Are you talking about that pot?" The little figure was startled before shouting: "Yes, you are right, I've sensed it now, it is that thing!"
"That thing has been here for a very long time." Li Qiye chuckled: "One thought to become Buddha, one thought to become Devil… such a heaven-defying item… Alas, Di Shi was one step earlier than anyone else!"
"It is an unequaled item." The little figure added: "If you can get ahold of this item, then you will simply be able to flip the heavens over. Meet god, slay god; meet devil, slay devil!"
"Killing gods and devils?" Li Qiye smirked: "Even without this thing, I can still meet god, slay god; meet devil, slay devil!"
Di Shi means Buddhist Emperor. You have seen him being talked about before back in the Heavenly Academy Arc. I don't know if this is a title or name, but Di Shi fits better here. ↩
