Chapter 1238: Scolding

She maintained her calm despite his accusation and lowered her tone: This is a serious matter, so our Dongting Lake will get to the very bottom of it.

Get to the bottom of it? Li Qiye couldnt help but laugh: When the Ironscale School bullied Zhang Baitu, when they tried to force him to sell the Hundred-Saints Hall, where was your lake then? And now, during the aftermath, your lake is trying to steer clear of anything to do with this event. Quite interesting

Well Zhang Baitu softly spoke: Young Noble, this really isnt the lakes fault. I didnt tell them at all.

Li Qiye smiled and waved his sleeve: You dont have to speak up for them, I know full well what is going on. You dont have to tell me that the lake has disposed of the bodies either.

I Zhang Baitu was scared. He didnt expect Li Qiye to predict it this fast, so he had no response.

Hong Yujiao answered instead: Brother Zhang is not at fault, this was the lakes decision and it has nothing to do with him.

After hearing this, Li Qiye slowly turned towards Hong Yujiao and smiled: This is more like it, spoken like a family.

She took a deep breath and stared at him: With all due respect, this is not a joke, I hope you can clarify this matter or the sea demons in this region will put this on Dongting Lake. At that time, the lake will be isolated from the rest of the world.

Isolated from the world? Li Qiye laughed: This kind of thing will never happen. Kill thirty to fifty of someones men and they will swear to never share this sky with you again. But if you kill a billion of them, they will obediently tuck their tails between their legs. Those who are unconvinced will have their bones litter the ground!

His eyes turned cold at this point: I am not someone who agrees with using force to bully the weak, and I will not condone any immoral acts from my followers. However, those who dare to provoke me or harm my followers, regardless of whether they are strong or weak, will be killed before talking about who was right and wrong! Only when you use blood to talk will others understand where your bottom line is. Otherwise, people will think that you are an easy target, and they will bully you while thinking that the humans in the Heaven Spirit World are mere ants.

It is a pity that your group did not inherit the hot blood of your ancestors or their willingness to kill! He continued on with indifference: Your lake is willing to sacrifice Zhang Baitu to separate itself from this situation, maybe you would even give up the Hundred-Saints Hall altogether. As long as the interests of your lake are untouched, everything can be negotiated.

Zhang Baitu trembled after hearing the line about killing all those who opposed you and answering with blood. It truly touched his heart.

We do not have those intentions. Despite being unable to refute all of Li Qiyes accusations, Hong Yujiao still said: We dont want to turn Brother Zhang into a shield, our goal is to find out the truth so that others wont misconstrue the situation.

Misconstrue? Li Qiye laughed sarcastically and said: So what if they misunderstand? The Ironscale School and outsiders are nothing. Who needs them to understand things clearly? So what if they dont? You cant even protect the spirits of your ancestors and have even forgotten their creed, yet you care about the misunderstandings of outsiders? The damned geezers at Dongting Lake have lost their minds!

Sir, I hope you can be more careful with your words. Dongting Lake has our own principles, and we shall do what we must. She didnt back down in response: We are grateful for you saving Brother Zhang, but if you keep on insulting Dongting Lake, dont blame me for no longer being polite!

Sister Zhang Baitu jumped up from his chair and dragged her away: Sister, you now understand the situation so go back and report this to the sect master. He winked at her.

He didnt want to see a fight between the two of them since her fate would be the same as the ones from the Ironscale School instantly crushed by Li Qiye!

Baitu Li Qiye waved his sleeve and said: Theres no need to be so sneaky around me. If I wanted to kill her, she wouldnt have been able to talk in front of me. The same goes for Dongting Lake; if I wanted to trouble them, I wouldnt be sitting here right now.

Zhang Baitu awkwardly let go of her and wryly smiled: Young Noble, she isnt trying to annoy you. She is only nervous about protecting Dongting Lake.

If I was annoyed with her, I wouldnt have let her speak. Li Qiye glared at him. The old man coughed and didnt say anything else.

Li Qiye shifted his attention towards the girl and said: Im the killer, your lake can go ahead and reveal it if you want to be rid of suspicion. Tell those brainless geezers to stop being short-sighted all day long and fixated on trivial matters. They have forgotten who their ancestors are and their own surnames for a few benefits!

You She glared at him. After all, he was directly scolding her elders. No one could swallow such anger.

Sister, go already, the master is waiting for your news. Zhang Baitu dragged her away and motioned for her to quickly leave.

She managed to restrain herself and coldly looked at Li Qiye: I wont interfere with your disrespectful behavior, but if you insult Dongting Lake again, I will definitely deal with you.

Li Qiye ignored her and focused on his drinks.

She eventually left, brewing with indignation. If it wasnt for Zhang Baitu pulling her back, she would have definitely fought this arrogant person!

Zhang Baitu was in a difficult position after she left. He rubbed his palms and smiled: Young Noble, Sister Hong is a very good person. The only thing is that she can be very straightforward at times.

Even though their ancestors had grievances, this generation got along with each other. This was especially true for Hong Yujiao and himself. They were quite close, so he couldnt watch her go to her death. Li Qiye only smiled and didnt say anything.

After a long time, Li Qiye looked at the faint mountain range one last time and decided to pay the bill. He looked over at Zhang Baitu and said: Come, well go to Rainbow City.

The two of them left the inn to go to the ferry. Everyone had to use this particular type of fish as transportation before they could reach Rainbow City.

Once they got to the ferry, the sky suddenly turned dark. A gigantic ship descended from the sky, its size too immense to describe. Half of its hull was still hidden in the clouds, so no one could see it fully.

This gigantic warship appearing at Rainbow Island attracted a lot of attention.

Many people saw the conch insignia on the warship and became quite surprised. Someone asked: Is that the Roaring Conch?

An old man slowly answered: No, this isnt it. It might be the ship of a big character from there though.

Another person speculated after seeing the ship: Is it the Seashield Prince then?

The insignia of the Roaring Conch left many spectators shocked. This was a famous lineage throughout the entire Heaven Spirit World, not just limited to the Dragon Demon Sea. They had two sea gods that possessed the Trident for a very long time. According to the tales, the moment their conch blared, all of the sea demons in the world would answer its call.

A smaller ship flew out of the big warship. In fact, this smaller vessel was still quite sizable. It just seemed tiny in comparison to its huge friend.

The warship didnt stop after the second one came out. It slowly rose to the sky and disappeared towards the horizon, towards an unknown destination.

The smaller one landed. Many saw a woman standing at the bow. She basked in the wind with her hair fluttering about.

Her pretty eyes and nose were more than enough to describe her as beautiful. Her fair white skin had a hint of rouge. Such a beauty would command attention wherever she went. Her waist was especially slender; it was as if a gust of wind could make it dance.

Despite her delicate appearance, she exuded a terrifying aura befitting of a God-Monarch! Halos emerged from her body. Each of them seemed to be part of their own world while carrying infinite power.

Many were frightened to see this force. After all, she was an incredibly young God-Monarch.

Wow, a God-Monarch Zhang Baitu was in awe and felt quite envious after seeing the God-Monarchs halos.

He had cultivated for a lifetime, yet his cultivation was completely negligible. However, this young lady ahead was already a horrifying God-Monarch. How could people not be stunned into admiration before this scene?
