Emperor’s Domination

>

“We’re leaving.” An ancestor told his juniors and left.

Others didn’t dare to linger around either, not wanting to annoy Li Qiye.
Only a minority stuck around.
Most kept a safe distance from the peak in order to watch.

“You want me to carry you down the peak too?” Li Qiye looked at Xu Cuimei and Righteous Scion.

The scion had an awkward expression with his mouth slightly open.
He was at a loss for words, looking more like an obedient child than an unstoppable genius.

“Of course not, Young Master.” Xu Cuimei felt more at ease since she was more familiar with Li Qiye.
She smiled and continued: “We do want to invite you to Righteous Sect though.”

“Leave it up to fate.” Li Qiye nonchalantly replied.

“We’ll await your arrival, Young Master.” She smiled charmingly.

He then stared at the two with a focus on the scion: “Though I haven’t seen Righteous Sect Master, it shouldn’t be that easy for you to defeat him.”

“The senior was just being kind.” The scion no longer had an air of arrogance when speaking to Li Qiye.

“You do know everything, Young Master.” Xu Cuimei interjected.

“No need to flatter me, I know what you’re doing but out of appreciation for your intelligence, I won’t make it hard for you two.” Li Qiye waved his sleeve.

“Thank you, Young Master.” Xu Cuimei bowed.
It was hard being mad at someone cute and smart like her.

“There’s nothing else to do at the holy ground, return from whence you came.” Li Qiye ordered.

The duo understood that he wanted them to leave.
The scion stepped forward and bowed: “It is the fortune of a lifetime to meet you on this trip, Young Master.
This is the greatest reward.”

Xu Cuimei wasn’t as serious as the scion but still put on a solemn expression: “Though our time together was brief, I’ve truly benefited from your guidance, Young Master.
If you ever need me in the future, just say the words and I’ll do my best regardless of the danger.”

She rarely acted this serious before since it wasn’t a part of her carefree personality.
This new aura of her looked rather imperious – akin to a god ready to ascend at any moment.

Of course, this aura only lasted long enough for her to finish speaking.
She returned to being the spirited and cute lady once more.

Li Qiye didn’t find this surprising and accepted their showing of respect.
“Go now.” 

The two bowed once more before leaving the area quietly.
