Emperor's Domination

Chapter 6194: Want To Get Closer

“It’s hard, we don’t have a supreme overlord in Old World.” Monk Zhu elaborated.

“Really? Not a single one?” Mu Hu murmured.

“Yes, without Heaven World appearing.” Orchidcore added: “The seniors told me there was one likely candidate, Dugu Yuan.”

This name hovered above everyone currently - a legend who refused Dingtian’s offer to be his master.

Remember, Dingtian was believed to be immortal, one of the very few in this world including the three deceased immortals and Desolate Ancestor.

Therefore, becoming his disciple was a supreme honor. At the very least, there was a chance of becoming a supreme overlord or primal ancestor. The latter was already quite rare in Old World.

Most importantly, Dugu Yuan was a nobody during the initial offer. No one knew why he refused and all in all, he was the first to do so.

Without Dingtian’s teachings, he still became a primal ancestor due to his brilliance.

“Dugu Yuan has been missing for a long time.” Princess Chen whispered.

“Yes, I believe he is in Heaven World now after becoming a supreme overlord.” Orchidcore nodded.

“It’s insane, the potential to become an immortal.” Monk Zhu praised.

“Becoming a supreme overlord isn’t that easy.” Li Qiye spoke while looking at the princess: “A certain geezer struggled only to find success unobtainable while clenching his fists.”

Orchidcore and Monk Zhu had a perplexed expression.

“I’m sure this geezer can do it.” Mu Hu had a silly smile.

Princess Chen’s expression changed after hearing this.

“Why are you still smiling, can’t you tell that brat is trying to get our princess’ attention?” Monk Zhu elbowed Mu Hu.

Orchidcore heard him and agreed. The confusing sentence might be a ploy to garner the princess’ attention.

Alas, this was impossible because the Chen was not an ordinary clan. Moreover, Li Qiye had no cultivation to speak of. The gap between a student at Orchid Academy and a novice beginner was too great. Nothing could come of this.

Mu Hu’s eyes shifted between the princess and Li Qiye, feeling slightly confused with an amused smile. This prompted the princess to glare at him.

Li Qiye smiled and didn’t mind the whispers. He stared at Mu Hu and said: “Let’s try not to be skinned if you want to continue acting silly.” [1]

Mu Hu’s smile disappeared right away.

“Fellow Daoists, do you want to rest first?” Li Xian felt something off about the atmosphere.

“Yes, that’s fine.” Orchidcore nodded.

“When will we start the exorcism?” Princess Chen asked.

“Tonight, we will leave for other spots in Old World after finishing.” Monk Zhu said.

“Tonight it is, I want to see what kind of evil is at work here.” Orchidcore nodded.

“Let’s build an altar?” Mu Hu suggested.

“We’re not exorcists in the mortal world, we don’t need an altar.” Princess Chen said.

“Yes, this isn’t a matter of ghosts, just some evil fiends. We just need to kill them.” Orchidcore said.

“It would be interesting if we can’t, it would be a great start to our training.” Monk Zhu eagerly said.

“Fellow Daoists, we start tonight. The issue is we don’t know what we are facing yet so please stay in a safe place during the battle.” Orchidcore said.

“No problem, no problem.” Li Xian agreed, having resigned to being unable to chase these fellas away. Otherwise, it would look rather suspicious.

Despite his unwillingness to let them exercise the “ghosts”, he still played the role of a hospital host.

“This place is strange.” Princess Chen commented during their stay.

“It’s best to be careful.” Orchidcore nodded: “Rumor has it Old Ruins are full of destroyed dao lineages, maybe some remnant specters are still left. We must work together to avoid complications.”

“No fiends can survive that, am I right?” Monk Zhu embowed Mu Hu playfully.

“Of course, of course.” Mu Hu scratched his head and chuckled.

“I’m ready.” Princess Chen was curious ever since she arrived in this residence. She also trusted her intuition after following her master for so long.

“What’s with the expression?” Li Qiye asked Li Xian.

“I’m just afraid they might disturb my ancestors.” Li Xian said.

“Remember, I told you this has nothing to do with your ancestors’ spirits.” Li Qiye smiled: “But we will see who will be doing the exorcism.”

“That’s even more problematic, what if they become possessed or killed? I’ll become the prime suspect.” Li Xian became startled.

“Don’t worry, they’re capable enough not to die. Plus, the danger level is not fatal.” Li Qiye said.

“Really?” Li Xian worried for the four young saints.

“You’re the one who told me that your ghosts do not harm people.” Li Qiye retorted.

“...” Li Xian did not argue against this.
