Chapter 2861: 2861
“We meet again, what a coincidence . ” Li Qiye’s group didn’t get far before being stopped by a voice from the back .
They turned around and saw the black bull behind them . It was eating grass with a leisurely demeanor . The students stared at it with a strange expression .
“What mischief are you up to?” Li Qiye asked .
“Hehehe, just taking in the sceneries, this is my home, you know? I’m not allowed to come here?” The bull seemed to be up to no good .
“Of course you can be here, just not right behind me . Keep on doing so when I’m hungry and I’ll think about stir-frying some beef, haha . ” Li Qiye said .
“Okay, okay, I’m just playing around . ” The bull became tense: “Don’t take me seriously . ”
The young ones smiled after seeing this . They felt that the bull was slightly vile, just not hostile towards them .
Li Qiye ignored the bull and continued forward .
The bull caught up to him and revealed a wretched smile: “Brother, I’ll let you know that I’ve found a small secret here, very juicy . ”
“Are you a pimp? You sound like you’re trying to solicit customers for a brothel right now . ” Li Qiye looked at it and said .
“C’mon now, I look nothing like that, am clearly an immortal species from birth . Hurry up and apologize for insulting me right now!” The bull jumped up and started shouting .
“I’ve insulted plenty of people, it’s fine to add one more to the count . ” Li Qiye replied .
The bull saw his tough attitude and decided to back down .
“Hey, look, that river over there is so beautiful . ” A youth exclaimed while pointing forward .
Everyone looked ahead and saw a mighty river with seven-colored water . Its flow looked like something in a dream, a river from heaven . People couldn’t help wanting to jump in for a swim .
“Yea, it looks pretty and also a very poisonous, seven-colored devil serpent . ” The bull laughed before roaring .
“Splash!” This “river” suddenly became erected straight towards the sky . All the water seemed to be flowing upward .
“!!!” The students couldn’t believe what they saw at the very top . The head or mouth of this creature was split into eight petals of flesh . Each had teeth all over the inside layer .
The students turned pale and quickly retreated .
“Little caterpillar, go back to sleep . ” The bull put on an arrogant posture and told the serpent .
“Splash!” This seven-colored creature stared at the bull for a bit before returning to the ground and becoming a beautiful “river” once more .
The young ones no longer viewed this river as a sight to behold any longer .
“You, you know that thing?” One student calmed down and asked the bull .
“Look at who I am . A true immortal in the mortal realm, a one-and-only lord of the beasts, the emperor of all creatures . This seven-colored devil serpent is nothing more than a caterpillar in my eyes . ” The bull advertised with trumpet and drum, looking very pleased with itself .
“Really?” The students had admiration in their eyes .
“Of course, as real as can be . ” The bull fully enjoyed this moment .
“Don’t listen to this nonsense, it is in its nature to brag . ” Li Qiye smiled: “If it were a true immortal, it would have ascended by now instead of hanging around here . ”
The bull looked like a deflated balloon after being exposed by Li Qiye, instantly lowering its head .
“Chirp…” A pleasant chirping interrupted their conversation . A bird flew closer, only around the size of a fist or so .
It had a pair of golden wings and a blue tail . The most interesting thing about it was a rune on its forehead - ancient and impossible to understand .
Only Li Qiye was able to decipher the rune . Its meaning was “virtue” .
The bird left behind a radiant trail in its wake so it looked very transcending .
“What a pretty bird . ” A student praised .
It circled around Li Qiye several times before chirping and leaving .
“A peacebringer magpie…” Du Wenrui who has been quiet the entire time in the back became startled .
The bird quickly returned with a garland in its beak and placed it on top of Li Qiye’s head . It circled around him several more times before shooting towards the sky like an arrow and disappearing from sight .
“No way…” Du Wenrui shouted .
“ . . . Something big is about to happen . This age won’t be the same…” The bull loudly said . Its eyes were wide open - bigger than two bronze bells .
Both Du Wenrui and the bull stood there frozen as if they had just been struck by lightning .
Li Qiye ignored them and looked at the garland with a smile: “Very well made . ”
“Well-made? Not just that, this is the ultimate glory in the world, so many brilliant geniuses and existences in the past can’t obtain it…” The bull said…
Wenrui was completely speechless - this was a miracle of the ages .
“What happened?” The students had no idea what was going on .
“That was a peacebringer magpie earlier . ” Wenrui said .
“Is it that strong?” They still didn’t get it .
The bull was clearly a mighty creature yet it looked stunned too . Could that magpie be even stronger?
“It’s not an issue of strength . ” The bull regained its wits .
Nevertheless, it still stared at Li Qiye with astonishment: “This bird is a symbol of morality . To be circled by one once means that the person is extremely virtuous . Circled several times? Tales of his virtue will be sung for generations . ”
“And what about that garland?” One student looked at the exquisite garland on Li Qiye’s head .
“Ha . . . ha . . . ha… being given that garland? I’ve never heard of such a thing before . It should be peerless, saving the world isn’t enough for it… completely unmatched…” The bull stared at Li Qiye with respect: “To earn this garland requires changing the entire world or doing something that benefits all living beings resulting in earning this meritorious karma, or… he’ll become a … . ”
The bull didn’t finish this sentence . It went on: “Haha, this is unprecedented in Three Immortals . Desolate Saint was only circled around twice, no chance of getting the garland, haha…”
“Why couldn’t our progenitor get one?” One student wasn’t convinced .
This was understandable . Desolate Saint’s light illuminated Three Immortals . This should be the ultimate merit deserving of great karma . They believed that this feat was beyond anything Li Qiye had done .
“Well… hehe, I’ll tell you kids . ” The bull laughed: “The old demonic tree said that Desolate Saint isn’t a savior, only a destroyer . That’s why he couldn’t get the garland . ”
“Impossible!” Not a single student believed this about their progenitor .
Du Wenrui continued to stare at Li Qiye; his eyes were filled with respect just like the bull .
“The heavenly change heralds a monster . ” He remembered this particular phrase and started pondering, becoming afraid .
The students took a closer look at that garland and didn’t quite grasp the implication of this issue . It was beyond their station .
