Chapter 2862
It took a while before everyone regained their composure . The bull slithered closer to Li Qiye, ready to earn some points: “Sir, hehe, what do you think about me?”
“Not bad, not bad at all . ” Li Qiye took a gander before replying .
“See, that’s a big shot for you, such keen eyesight, knowing that I’m special right away . ” The bull stood up straight raised its hoof forward, acting as if it was giving Li Qiye a thumbs-up .
This appearance looked so bizarre and hilarious so the students nearly exploded in laughter .
“I’m talking about how strong and muscular your body is, I’m sure you will be very tasty, whether it be a meat dish or hot soup . ” Li Qiye added .
“That… that’s too cruel and wasteful… I’m an immortal species…” The bull’s shoulders drooped down, seemingly defeated .
The students were so amused by the sudden change in the bull every time when Li Qiye got the best of him . Of course, they restrained themselves, still intimidated by the bull .
The bull’s eyes rolled around for a bit . It took one step back and told Du Wenrui: “Brat, I forgot to tell you . ”
“What is it?” Wenrui remained cautious towards this bull because he suffered greatly because of it in the past, the same for many other geniuses .
“That brat Goldtypha has some tricks up his sleeve, probably taught by a real master . Some shackles have been opened but who knows what he wants?” The bull laughed and said .
“Really?” Du Wenrui didn’t expect this and remained skeptical . He has been tricked too many times before .
“As I said, I’m always honest but feel free not believing me . ” The bull shrugged .
“Young Noble Li, please take care of the students, I’ll be back right away . ” Du Wenrui put on a serious expression and cupped his fist towards Li Qiye .
“Don’t worry, who dares to touch them when I’m around? If anyone touches a hair of theirs, I’ll crush them to a pulp . ” The bull declared while stomping on the ground .
“Let’s go . ” Li Qiye smiled and nodded .
Wenrui couldn’t rely on this eccentric bull but Li Qiye was a different story . He turned and disappeared into the horizon, seemingly in a hurry .
“Haha, this brat is very capable and talented, especially back then . ” The bull laughed and revealed: “It’s a shame that he’s wasting his life and skills away in that crappy city . Truly regrettable . ”
“Everyone has their own ambition . ” Li Qiye said: “Why are you here in the garden still? You can come and go as you please . ”
“Haha, it’s obviously because of that bastard, Desolate Saint . ” The bull spoke with indignation .
“What did our progenitor do to you?” One student asked .
“He stole an item from us and I want to take it back!” The bull scowled .
“Slanderous liar . Our progenitor is invincible and righteous with the light, why would he steal something from you . ” This student didn’t believe it . The rest started glaring at the bull .
“Haha, only naive brats like yourselves would think so highly of Desolate Saint . Saint? Only an act . ” The bull laughed in response: “If he was really one, he wouldn’t have abandoned your city and its inhabitants for generations . All it was, hehe, is a place for him to wash away his own sin by moving it into other people . ” It increased its volume the longer it went on .
The students became speechless . They have always respected Desolate Saint but the abandonment was an irrefutable truth - a sore spot for all of them .
“Hah, this Sacred Mountain used to be an immortal land, look at what he had done to it . ” The bull spewed out its annoyance: “It belonged to my home yet the hypocrite stole it… The bastard is more of a devil than a saint . ”
“Completely baseless!” One student barked back .
“Who knows? Just one thought can change someone from a Buddha to a devil, and who to say that a devil didn’t use to be good? A saint could have walked on the path of evil too . Good and evil can shift so quickly . Plus, who has the right to set the criteria for either side?” Li Qiye joined in .
“While standing at the apex, everything else is simply ephemeral and insignificant . ” He concluded with a profound gaze .
The students lacked proper information for further conjectures . However, the bull figured out something and felt its hair standing on end . It shuddered and staggered backward .
“That has nothing to do with me . ” It shrugged: “All I want to do is to bring this mountain back one day . ”
“What are you waiting for then?” Li Qiye smiled .
The students became startled after the instigation . This mountain was a sacred ground of their system . It being taken away would be a huge loss .
“I gotta wait until that old tree demon is dead . ” The bull looked dejected and helpless .
“I’m a bit interested in that demon . ” Li Qiye chuckled .
The bull has brought this demon up several times . Moreover, it seemed to be afraid of this person too .
“Oh? Do you want to go see him right now? Haha, that guy always acts invincible as if he’s number one . You should go take him down a notch and let him know that there is always a higher mountain . ” The bull’s eyes flashed with excitement .
“No point in trying to use me as a borrowed knife . I’m not interested in that . ” Li Qiye gave it the side-eye .
The bull became sad again for a bit before coming up with something else: “Where are you going then? Got any plans here? Hehe, I can’t be more familiar with this place so let me know so I can give you my opinion . ”
Everyone could tell that it was up to no good, looking like a local bandit .
“Just doing whatever since this place is pretty neat . ” Li Qiye chuckled .
“That’s fine too . ” The bull agreed: “I know of a very interesting and remote place here . Others can’t find it but I know that there are many treasures there . Easy to grab too . ”
“A place full of easy treasures? Really?” The youths were skeptical .
“Why should an immortal such as myself lie to you bunch?” The bull stared haughtily at them .
The youths felt their heart beating faster . Only a saint would be freed from desire and they weren’t saints . All eyes were on Li Qiye now, waiting for his answer .
“Do you want to go take a look, great sir?” The bull urged .
“Very well, let’s take a look then . ” Li Qiye glanced at the bull .
“Yes!” The students cheered, excited to see this treasure-filled place .
The bull accepted his task and led the way . They traveled quite far since their guide was very familiar with the ancient courtyard .
It even told cool stories to the students . For example, the peak nearby was the horn of which beast, that lake was only the eye of an alligator .
It knew everything like the back of its hand and enlightened the students .
The young ones were confused too, thinking that maybe the bull was telling the truth? Maybe this mountain really belonged to its home . That’s why it knew so much .
“Rumble!” Loud explosions suddenly interrupted their journey .
