Chapter 5292: I Am Me

Im serious, no more fusion talk. Li Qiye smiled and shook his head.

Are you sure? The G.o.dchild stared at him with suspicion.

I cant force you to do what you dont want to do. Li Qiye accepted defeat.

Who knows? The G.o.dchild had the word doubt written on his face

Am I such a bad man? Ive always been true to my words, no? Li Qiye smiled wryly.

Is that why you were chased from east to west? The G.o.dchild said.

Oh, this matter? That wasnt my fault and your brilliant daughter has her own thoughts. I was merely a witness. Li Qiye said.

Bah, we were merciful for not chopping your crow head off back then. The G.o.dchild said with disdain.

I know you are joking because both of us know that her leaving was inevitable whether I was there or otherwise. Li Qiye said: Deep down, you know that my appearance didnt affect things.

Hard to say, crows are bad luck. Maybe working alone would have been more auspicious and successful. The G.o.dchild said.

Thats what family is, working together despite negative superst.i.tions. Li Qiye smiled.

Watch your mouth, we are not family! The G.o.dchild jumped back and kept a distance from Li Qiye.

One day you will have to agree because Im sincere in this matter, dont you think? Li Qiye said.

Save this for the future. At the very least, the current me wants nothing to do with you, unlucky crow! The G.o.dchild said with disdain.

Alright, no need to get so worked up. Im just traveling around to check out the past on top of catching up with the people I care about. Li Qiye said.

No thanks. The G.o.dchild patted his robe as if trying to wipe away bad luck: But if we really want to bring it up, then its your fault for not disciplining them well.

How is it my fault? Li Qiye stroked his chin.

a.s.sa.s.sination is fine but only when successful. They tried and only ended up with a mess. The man said.

You cant blame them for that. Even you might not have been able to do it. Li Qiye said.

True, and I was careless too. This outsiders dao was unlike anything Ive seen. The G.o.dchild admitted.

Because its not from your epoch. In fact, it shouldnt appear in this world at all, yet it still did. Li Qiye said.

Perhaps Celestial Court came up with something. The G.o.dchild said.

I dont know about that, but the outsider came for a reason and certainly left behind ace cards to minimize the risk. Li Qiye said.

We couldnt investigate this matter fully. Your disciples were rather ambitious, challenging and attacking everything too quickly. If you want to know, you will have to put in more effort. The G.o.dchild said.

And that is why Im back. This is my epoch so whoever they are, they will need to be obedient or Ill turn them into fertilizer. Li Qiye declared with a cold gleam flickering in his eyes.

Im no stranger to your merciless means, nothing good will come from this. The G.o.dchild said.

Well, my people will come out okay. Those who are smart know which side to pick. Li Qiye stared at him and said.

The G.o.dchild didnt bother to look at him, still focusing on the sky.

You all have shouldered so much in the past and Im here to resolve all the problems. Li Qiye said.

Anything but the fusion. The G.o.dchild a.s.serted.

Youre tying my hands here. Li Qiye rubbed his chin.

Well, find a way or stop calling yourself an epoch lord if you cant deal with something so trivial. Its embarra.s.sing. The G.o.dchild said.

Its not that I cant do it, it just goes against my principle and it is not the perfect solution. Li Qiye said: But I respect your wishes. All of you are independent now and it is not up to an outsider like me.

Since when are you so understanding? The G.o.dchild asked.

Ive always been this way with you because were family. Li Qiye joked again.

The dark crow I know was definitely a control freak, always wanting every step to go the way you want. The G.o.dchild said.

Sigh, that wasnt the case at all. Li Qiye waved his hand.

Why are you actually here? If you want to move things along, just go directly to him. The G.o.dchild said.

You brothers havent seen each other since the separation. Im here to arrange a meeting, nothing more. Li Qiye said.

No way, I will not fall for your trap. The G.o.dchild strongly refused.

Dont worry, I am not forcing you to do anything you dont want to do. Li Qiye shook his head.

Thats not the first time Ive heard this. I should have just killed you back then. The G.o.dchild said.

Lets not dwell on the past, were adults now. Li Qiye smiled wryly.

I will never meet them, I dont know what tricks you have up your sleeve for the actual process but your intention is as clear as day. The G.o.dchild snorted.
