Chapter 6341: Further Disgracing Your Ancestor
Centurial Peak became silent, robbed of all affinities. Not even Tenth-gen Chen could do anything about it.
The emperors and desolate gods have experienced this mysterious force before. Now, this unknown ancestor could send it somewhere else as well.
Li Qiye gestured for Absolute to release Ten-realm.
Ten-realm finally realized his predicament, hence the rapid change in expressions. He initially wanted to question this fake ancestor, hoping to hurt the prestige of Desolate Ancestor’s branch.
However, this guy seemed to be the real deal and his plan backfired.
“Courageous, but mistakes should be punished.” Li Qiye said.
This left everyone breathless for a second before numerous thoughts ran in their head.
Ten-realm, the greatest genius and the successor of the Chen, was now subjected to someone’s will? This seemed impossible before.
The new supreme ancestor still hasn’t made a deep mark in everyone’s mind yet. This was his opportunity to do so depending on the punishment.
Would he kill Ten-realm Emperor to make an example? This could cause a rift between the two factions and incite unrest in Centurial Peak.
“What should I do?” Li Qiye stared at Goldclad and Lostmetal.
The two had an awkward expression. Telling them to make a choice was difficult since they were from Centurial Peak.
The Chen was their home so to stand with the supreme ancestor was betraying their lineage. Only the founder could do so with impunity since he had founded the lineage in the first place.
However, they weren’t on this level so they stared at Ten-realm.
“We protected the sect to prevent spies and villains from infiltration...” Ten-realm said.
“Enough, don’t be so ridiculous. Take responsibility to avoid further disgracing your ancestor.” Li Qiye waved dismissively.
Ten-realm turned red for a second before arching his chest forward and declaring: “Men do not fear death. Bring it, punish me alone.”
His spine was as straight as possible, looking like a true emperor. Even an incoming blade wouldn’t make his neck flinch for a second.
“Now that’s more like it.” Li Qiye smiled and said: “Taking your lives makes me appear too merciless, but without a punishment, you will continue to act brazenly as if you’re the strongest already.”
He paused momentarily and continued: “Thus, a punishment is warranted.”
Everyone listened attentively, awaiting his decision.
Ten-realm didn’t admit his crime or beg for forgiveness, still filled with arrogance and pride. Death didn’t seem to be a big deal to him.
“I suppose I should take a few things from you all as punishment.” Li Qiye said with a smile.
Everyone exchanged glances. Did he want to take their treasures or worse, their cultivation?
“I seize your worldly fortunes. Come.” Li Qiye said before patting the ground.
Worldly fortunes? This made everyone wonder what he meant exactly.
“Boom!” A golden light erupted from Lost Peak as a tree flew upward.
It emitted a blinding radiance because all the leaves were gold. The flowers were silver, and so were their filaments drooping down like waterfalls.
“No!” Goldclad and Lostmetal became startled.
“The alloy tree!” Everyone watched in astonishment. They knew how precious it was and how many materials it had produced over the years for the two emperors.
They became more amazed when it started running in the air.
“What?!” Jaws dropped to the ground.
“Rumble!” The destination was none other than Silence Peak.
It wasn’t alone since other divine trees from Lost Peak did the same, following right behind it.
“Stallion blood ginseng, love sacred bamboo, nine-cycle panacea, onyx soul-end grass...” Disciples were in awe after seeing some of them.
Goldclad and Lostmetal had put so much effort into these plants.
“No!” They shouted and tried to stop them from leaving.
