Emperor’s Domination

ront.”

“So, are you afraid?” She tried to egg him on.

“Mindgame doesnt work on me, little girl.” He shook his head and said.

“Dont forget, you havent done anything yet as the First Disciple, dont sit in the outhouse without taking a shit. Not telling you to join the battle is already treating you too nicely.” She angrily complained.

“Watch your image now, youre the representative of our sect, how can you say such crude words? Youre ruining your image as a nice girl.” He teased.

“Stop blabbering, are you coming or not?” She revealed her true nature after a few sentences.

It looked as if she would give him a good beating if he were to refuse.

“Of course I am. I dont dare to disobey the First Sister, the consequence of that would be so bad.” He smiled sarcastically.

She was furious and pinched his waist hard enough for him to open his mouth in pain.

“Ill tell you something.” She said during their walk.

“The Alchemy Conference is happening soon, its a day where the system worships the ancestors. Our valley has always been in charge of it.” She carefully said.

Li Qiye smirked: “Such good timing for someone to hurt the master just before this date. And now a marriage proposal too?”

“Thats why you know what needs to be done.” She looked at him and said.

“What if I go firm? Keep in mind that I do not concede, the enemy must either lick my shoes or be the bones beneath them. Little girl, you need to be ready for the aftermath for dragging me out here.” He said flatly: “Do you want to delay this or declare war? The former is better in my absence since I always go all out once I decide to do something.”

Miaozhen contemplated quietly before looking straight into his eyes, wishing to see into his soul while allowing him to do the same.

“I trust you.” She finally nodded: “Though I dont know why Master picked you to be the First Disciple, I still trust you all the same. Since Master isnt here, I will let you do as you please. Our three sisters have your back.”

“Little girl, you might just be handing Longevity Valley to a devil.” He laughed and touched her forehead before moving on.

***

The monarch of Everlasting was waiting in a palace chamber. This was a stalwart old man with sharp brows and cold eyes. He had the most influence and authority in Everlasting right now among the monarchs after many successful conquests.

Their emperor asked him to be in charge of this marriage proposal. He came quite prepared for this task.

However, he has been waiting for a long time. Not to mention an ancestor, not even an elder got here to see him. Nevertheless, he remained calm and sat there in silence.

He didnt mind the deliberate slight because the valley wouldnt be arrogant for long. Not long from now, the system would belong to Everlasting.

Why? Because their kingdom was the strongest right now, far exceeding Longevity Valley in terms of military prowess. Whether it be an ordinary disciple or the nobles in that kingdom, they all thought that Longevity Valley had declined, way inferior in comparison to them.

Furthermore, they have been in charge for long enough. It was time for someone else to take the reins.
