Emperor’s Domination

Look like a big crowd.” Li Qiye chuckled after hearing this.

“Quite a few, please be lenient, Your Majesty.” Jianchuan hesitated before softly speaking.

Li Qiye leisurely smiled: “Sounds like something will happen then.”

“Well… Im only speculating.” Jianchuan smiled wryly: “The great ancestor is still at the capital, so I dont really know what will happen.”

Despite saying so, as the person responsible for intelligence in Godstep, he naturally knew what was going on but didnt dare to reveal it. He was powerless anyway.

Li Qiye didnt care too much if the youth didnt dare to speak. The two of them quickly made their way into the main hall.

The room was full of people – the influential ancestors sitting down. Many important disciples were standing behind them, crossing their arms in front of their chest.

All eyes fell on Li Qiye instantly – some were disdainful, others sneered, a few were simply curious…

“Your Majesty, please excuse us for interrupting your session.” Heavenly Crane Enlightened Being cupped his fist and smiled.

Heavenly Crane still sat down on his chair, not bothering to stand up.

In the past, they would be on their knees to greet the king of Nine Secrets right now. Unfortunately, because of recent events, they no longer give a damn about this fallen king. Even the disciples here looked down on him.

Li Qiye sat down and briefly observed the crowd. Splendorous Saintess and White Crane Young Noble were present as well, standing next to the sect master.

The saintess stared coldly at him with clear contempt in her eyes. Meanwhile, the young noble sneered, trying to hide his murderous intent.

This was beyond Jianchuans control so he stood quietly to the side. A third-generation disciple like him couldnt speak before the sect master and ancestors.

“Everyones here.” Li Qiye lazily said.

“Your Majesty, you have been staying here for a long time but the ancestors never got a chance to see you. This is why everyone is here today.” Heavenly Crane smiled.

In fact, a few ancestors have seen Li Qiye already during the coronation since they tagged along with Wind God. Of course, Li Qiye never gave a damn about them, not to mention the massive crowd back then. Who could remember certain individuals?

“This is Cloudflash Ancestor, the fastest in our sect. This is Solitary Dragon Ancestor, responsible for dao teaching. This is Skywalk Ancestor, he is…” The sect master introduced the ancestors one by one with a smile.

“Alright, no need for such needless courtesy.” Li Qiye interrupted him with a wave: “No need to pretend in front of me, just say what you have to say, everyone is busy.”

The ancestors didnt expect this; some put on an unfriendly expression. Meanwhile, the disciples didnt try to hide their anger.

These ancestors were all prestigious big shots in all of Imperial, not just Nine Secrets.

Heavenly Crane was giving Li Qiye face by introducing them yet the guy dared to act so rudely? It was a blatant insult.

How could a downtrodden dog needing their protection act arrogantly like this before them?

The atmosphere became tense instantly. The previous cordial pretense disappeared.

“Well…” Heavenly Cranes smile slowly went away. He then nodded towards the saintess.

“We are here today for one thing only. Just one demand, hand over the marriage pact. It will be nothing but beneficial for you.” The saintess said coldly.
