Emperor’s Domination

Chapter 6108: Killing The Three Immortals

“Young Noble, so you are saying there might be dao avatars in the market?” Six-style asked.

“It’s not something Grand Emperors can do, and not close to the present. It would be during the times of Soulcast Land when this loophole was figured out.” Li Qiye said.

“Are you referring to Jiao Heng and Baihui? Is this what they used to get out eventually?” She asked.

“This could be it, but the price was still exceedingly high.” Li Qiye said.

“Did Jiao Heng or Baihui come up with this? It would explain how Baihui was able to run free later.” The temple lord said.

“Someone else figured it out first, and the two found this secret and experimented with it. Baihui was the one who paid the price, Jiao Heng got what he wanted and escaped first.” Li Qiye said.

“And that’s why Baihui pursued Jiao Heng after getting out.” She said.

A progenitor such as Baihui couldn’t have been foolish enough to be sold. Therefore, the two must have worked together in this plan. It ended up with Baihui being annoyed at Jiao Heng for taking all the good stuff.

“They were just messing around. At best, Jiao Heng wanted something. However, the first to notice this surely had a big plan.” Li Qiye’s eyes narrowed.

“Such a person understood the laws of the market, perhaps the progenitor who baited the group here, the first power erupted?” She asked.

“Seems likely. Given their arrival, someone in the group had a perfect understanding of the ghost market, opening it and guiding them to Heavenfall.” The temple lord added.

“The person relied on their knowledge of the ghost market and implemented it into the ambush to eliminate all the progenitors.” She said.

“As for the second one, certainly stronger than the first. Moreover, a better actor as well.” Li Qiye said.

“What was the goal? To use this battle as a way to conceal their whereabouts?” She asked.

“Going so far to concoct a perfect plan to hide, there are two explanations. First, either a powerful enemy on the way, or…” Li Qiye said.

“Or?” She continued.

“Or the person had done something sinful and unforgivable.” Li Qiye said.

“Sinful?” Six-style exchanged glances with the temple lord.

“What could be more sinful than eradicating a kingdom or a sect? Plenty of emperors have done this before but didn’t need to go into hiding.” The temple lord remarked.

From the perspective of a mortal, eradicating a kingdom was an unforgivable sin. However, cultivators had done plenty of killing.

“I can’t come up with anything, whether it be slaughtering mortals or killing emperors.” She said.

“Have you ever heard of Fire Ancestor?” Li Qiye nonchalantly said.

“Fire Ancestor?” Six-style was not aware.

“A second Fire Ancestor?!” The temple lord’s expression changed.

“Fire Ancestor pales in comparison.” Li Qiye said.

“So what was it?” The temple lord understood Li Qiye’s intention.

“Planning and participating in the killing of immortals.” Li Qiye glanced up at the sky.

“The battle with the three immortals?!” Six-style blurted before calming down: “I heard it involved Moshi and two other monstrous cultivators.”

“Did anyone see it in person?” Li Qiye said.

Immortals Slaughtered War lasted for a long period and culminated in a battle between the three immortals versus Moshi, Evil Transformation, and Ghost Emperor. It shattered the old Three Immortals World and formed the current one.

“Moshi was just the catalyst, someone had been waiting for a long time and caught everyone off guard.” Li Qiye said.

“So an ambush?” She asked.

“An ambush alone isn’t strange.” Li Qiye shook his head: “I’m just impressed at the acting skills and patience, the type of dao to remain hidden for so long. The ones closest to this person had no idea.”

“Progenitor, Three Immortals have always been coveted. Could it be an outsider?” The temple lord asked.

“An outsider would have done a sloppy job. No, this was a native.” Li Qiye smiled: “Only a native knew the right steps to eliminate all obstacles without being noticed.”

“Killing the three immortals, what a grand ambition.” Six-style took a deep breath.

“More than just the three immortals, if it wasn’t for some limitations.” Li Qiye said.

“I can’t fathom who it might be.” Six-style said.

“Must be someone close to the three immortals.” The temple lord knew of this era.

“But the three immortals would have known, right?” She said.

“Fire Ancestor was a similar case, a traitor.” The temple lord said while looking at Li Qiye.

“I see, so despite the flawless job at hiding, Desolate Ancestor must have figured out something. That’s why she came searching.” She realized something else.

“She came too late and the person was able to run in time.” Li Qiye said.

“And no suspects are left since everyone is dead.” The temple lord said.

The culprit behind everything was an ancient progenitor but now, all the suspects were dead. The culprit assumed a new identity and went into hiding again.

“Time passing by is beneficial for this mastermind.” Li Qiye smiled.

“You wish to catch the culprit, Young Noble?” Six-style asked.

“I can’t miss such an interesting plot. I’m curious to see how much patience and ability this person has.” Li Qiye said with a smile.
