They naturally didnt heed his warning in the slightest while being fully tempted by the golden egg. The only thing on their mind was entering the valley.
Dont worry, just take us inside and well handle other matters. One expert became impatient.
But Li Qiye remained hesitant: The golden egg is evil and bloodthirsty, a disaster might be looming.
If its truly evil, then Vajra should guard it so that no one will become its victim. Sir Shang said.
In that case, its actually better to take the egg out so that everyone can work together to keep the world safe. Young Noble Li, you have a responsibility to take us in there. An elder on the other side actually agreed with Sir Shang. He took the side of justice without feeling shameless at all.
Young Noble Li, lets hurry up. Others became restless.
Fine. Li Qiye gave up and said: Dont blame me if anything happens.
He looked unwilling before warning: Its not too late to give up or death might be the outcome.
We know, were responsible for any danger, dont you worry. They all wanted to rush for the golden egg right now and actually thought that Li Qiye was being annoying.
Ill take everyone in then. Li Qiye relented.
Men, get ready! Everyone has been waiting for this; an elder commanded his group.
Numerous groups lined up, seemingly ready to assault the valley. Secret alliances were made on the spot too.
It became obvious that working alone wasnt enough to obtain the egg, hence the need for allies.
Provide backline support and create a dao platform. Were leaving the moment we get it. A few powers prepared backup plans and didnt bring all disciples inside.
Those left behind needed to prepare formations and even dao platforms. This would allow them a swift retreat once successful.
Whoever obtained the egg would become everyones target. Thats why a retreat plan was crucial.
Sir Shang, members of South Peak will stay outside the valley as support. Well wait for your triumphant return. South Peak Marquis didnt want to take the risk and decided to stay outside.
Very well, Im counting on you, Marquis. Sir Shang nodded.
Due to their ranks, he actually couldnt order the marquis. Moreover, he personally didnt want the guy to enter in the first place since he would need to share credit with the marquis after getting the egg.
He thought that he did all the work in creating an alliance. Sharing the limelight and rewards was unacceptable.
Teacher, do we go too? Many students were eager to try while watching the mobilization.
They were hopeful too. Perhaps they would be blessed by heaven and managed to grab the egg during the skirmishes.
Tired of living already? The oldest teacher glared at them and scolded: Just watch here given your skills because when a fight actually starts, all of you will be crushed like ants. Stop fantasizing about being lucky.
The students didnt dare to retort. Though they were gifted and could be considered heavens favorites, they were still too young and weak compared to the senior students, let alone big shots such as ancestors from the other powers.
The teacher was right. They would be crushed like ants in an actual fight.
Theres something strange amidst. That golden egg might actually be dangerous. Well just observe. Teacher Du exercised caution.
That guy might just be scaring people. Zhang Changyu quietly said.
However, Yang Ling still heard it and glared at him: Young Noble Li has never lied before.
Zhang Changyu once again lost to Yang Ling, unable to respond.
Okay, lets go. Sir Shang didnt wait for people to get ready and told Li Qiye.
Sure, are we good to go? Li Qiye shrugged and smiled.
Yes, were ready, lead the way, Young Noble Li. Others didnt want to wait a single second more and shouted.
Off we go. Li Qiye looked helpless as he walked forward to guide the group.
The group followed right behind him; everyone wanted to be closer to the front.
Meanwhile, the chaos primal beasts still patrolled outside the valley. Their bestial auras combined together into an ethereal ocean of dread.
As the group got closer, the beasts immediately glared at them. They naturally shuddered with trepidation.
Even the ancestors became tense after getting close enough. They took out their weapons and put on a defensive posture, ready to fight at any moment.
Li Qiye began talking with the beasts. No one understood what he was saying but it seemed effective.
The patrolling beasts retreated like the receding tides and watched from the distance. Cultivators heaved a sigh of relief at this sight.
Its impossible not to have a meteoric rise with such an ability. One expert became jealous. Li Qiye could definitely become the king of this mountain range.
I would be world-renowned right now instead of a woodchopper, what a fool. Others thought that there was something wrong with Li Qiye for not taking advantage of this opportunity.
All in all, the nervous cultivators followed Li Qiye into the entrance.
This is the last chance, its not too late to change your mind. Li Qiye told them: Its better to not mess with that ominous egg.
We appreciate your concern. One ancestor immediately said: But as Buddhists say, who will venture into hell if not me? We need to take this risk if the egg is actually evil in order to watch over it.
Thats right, we need to make the sacrifice. Everyone else chimed in, thinking that Li Qiye has been wasting too much time.
Very well, lets go in. Li Qiye turned back towards the entrance and whispered to himself: Theres nothing I can do if you all want to suicide.
Unfortunately, no one heard his last sentence.
At the same time, the spectators outside the valley watched the group enter. They regretted it since nothing dangerous happened so far. If they had known this, they would have joined in for a chance at the golden egg.
