Chapter 2853: 2853
They also realized that they weren’t on the same level as Li Qiye . He wasn’t a student like the rest of them and was just staying at their school for now .
Just think about it . Li Qiye still gave them one each despite the clear value of the fruit . Not to mention they were strangers, most probably wouldn’t act so generous even towards their closest ones . Only someone from the legend would do something like this .
That’s why they knew that Li Qiye’s level far exceeded them - a hidden master .
Li Qiye only smiled and accepted their gesture .
“Okay, I will temporarily hold these fruits until you all are strong enough to use them . That’s why you have to keep trying harder in order to not disappoint the young noble’s goodwill . One day, you will be able to create your own domain . ” Du Wenrui looked at the students and said .
The young ones became emotional after hearing this . A ray from dawn seemed to be illuminating them and dispelling their confusion and doubts .
They clenched their firsts, determined to walk forward regardless of future hardships . They refused to be treated with disdain from now on . Moreover, they would also take pride in their origin and academy . Their blood boiled with excitement and ambition .
“Time to take a look at Beast Garden . ” Li Qiye smiled and continued forward . The young ones calmed down and followed right after .
Unfortunately, a person stopped them before they could enter the garden .
The stopper was a youth shrouded in a pulsing radiance . It seemed as if there was a treasury within him . The glow looked prestigious like the shimmering of gems .
The auras of various treasures surrounded him too . It was clear that he had a lot of treasures .
Moreover, he wore an expensive robe made of unknown materials along with various trinkets . They seemed to be expressing three words, “I’m very rich” . The divine stones engraved on the robe wanted to blind the spectators with their radiance .
Below his feet was a seven-colored cloud, allowing him to float .
Normally, standing on this type of cloud would exude an elegant and transcending image . However, this guy seemed to be standing on something materialistic and full of bravado . One could also see the three words, “I’m very rich” .
“Who is Li Qiye?” He uttered coldly .
“I am . ” Li Qiye smiled .
“You?” The youth was surprised but his eyes fell upon the sword behind him: “Indeed . ”
“I am Treasure Origin True God, I’m here today to…” He snorted and continued .
“Treasure Source True God?” Li Qiye interrupted and looked at him up and down .
“Oh? Frightened by my awesome reputation?” He didn’t like being interrupted .
“No, you’re overthinking it . I think your name should be “I’m very rich” though . ” Li Qiye mocked .
“ . . . ” The true god turned red and glared at him .
“It’s not my fault, everything about you seems to be giving off that vibe . Sorry, I guess I misinterpreted . ” Li Qiye shrugged, acting innocent .
The true god trembled with rage, nearly vomiting blood . His dressing style including the robe and the cloud was meant to represent his prestigious status, not to show off his wealth in a vulgar manner - or so he thought .
“Okay, ‘I’m very rich’, what do you need from me?” Li Qiye seemed amused . [1]
Zhou Qiushi and the others struggled to hold their laughter inside .
“ . . . ” The true god felt the urge to kill . He took a deep breath to compose himself and said aggressively: “I am Wang Weiyuan . I’m here to tell you today that your life is mine . ”
“What? ‘I’m very rich’, do you have a problem with me?” Li Qiye said .
“You killed Teacher Deng, so a life for a life!” The true god acted as if he didn’t hear Li Qiye calling him by this terrible nickname .
“Teacher Deng? Who's that? I’ve killed plenty of people and don’t recall this person . ” Li Qiye chuckled .
The true god’s expression turned unsightly .
“Deng Rensen is who he’s talking about . ” Du Wenrui reminded Li Qiye .
“I see . ” Li Qiye nodded: “Yes, you can say that I kill him, but the truth is that I was only trying to save him…”
“I don’t care to hear your excuses, a life for a life so you must die . Just know that I will always try to kill you regardless of the time and place . ” The true god said .
“Oh, so that’s how it is . Don’t you know that he died to the Sword of Repentance? Do you want to be its victim too?” Li Qiye patted his sword .
The true god’s eyes narrowed while looking at the sword . He knew just how powerful it was since he watched Holyfrost True Emperor picking it up in the past .
Because of this fear, he decided to announce his intention instead of ambushing him first . This also meant that he would utilize any means necessary in the future to take the guy down .
“Hmph, you can’t rely on a weapon to protect you forever . ” The true god said .
“Okay, I’ll keep that in mind . Since you came to warn me first, this is considered a just and honorable act so I will spare your dog life today . ” Li Qiye nodded .
The true god was actually an Eternal of 100,00 generations but Li Qiye treated him like a dead man . [2]
“The feud between my Northern Academy and you starts today . ” The true god asserted .
Deng Rensen was a teacher while he was a student there .
“I welcome it if you can represent that academy . If your academy is foolish enough to come and provoke me, I don’t mind killing all of you . ” Li Qiye smiled .
“Hmph . ” The true god scowled before controlling his cloud to float away .
“‘I’m very rich’, when I do kill you later, I’ll strip you naked and take your cloud too . They seem very expensive and will probably fetch a nice price . ” Li Qiye shouted at the departing true god .
The true god trembled again and staggered backward, nearly falling off from his cloud .
Nevertheless, Li Qiye didn’t kill this guy for offending him . He appreciated the youth for coming here and stating his intent first .
“This guy is a little devilish . ” Du Wenrui chuckled: “His talents weren’t considered exceptional when he joined Northern Academy . He became Deng Rensen’s student later and was taken care of so he owes the guy . Now, he is considered a top talent there after experiencing a miraculous event allowing his cultivation to soar, or at least that’s what the rumor says . ”
“Yep, he ate a treasure source . His heart and mind have the aura of one now, so any item he uses looks very expensive and precious . ” Li Qiye said .
Du Wenrui wasn’t worried at all . A student couldn’t take Li Qiye on regardless of however devilish he may be .
He praised the youth for having the courage and the mind to repay a favor . Unfortunately, he was courting death for going against Li Qiye .
“Off we go again, let’s see what ‘I’m very rich’ will do to try and kill me . I’m sure it’ll be a lot of fun . ” Li Qiye casually said, not caring .
The youths finally laughed after hearing this amusing title again, now that the true god was gone .
1 . “I’m very rich” in Chinese is Wo Hengui, it doesn’t sound as weird as it does in English since names in Chinese are made up of regular characters, sometimes with a specific meaning . Maybe I should use Wo Hengui in this context instead of “I’m very rich”
2 . 100,000 wasn’t mentioned in the power ranking for Eternals . A Myriad Eternal is 10,000 and a Ceaseless Eternal is 1,000,000 . He should be a Myriad Eternal, this might be a mistake from the author too
