Emperor's Domination

Chapter 5614: A Crab

“Perhaps not all evil will come from Celestial Court.” Li Qiye said.0

“Your Excellency, please elaborate.” The man’s eyes narrowed.0

“Evil exists in the heart, a matter of self-control.” Li Qiye said.0

“Is that the target of my blade, Your Excellency?” The man asked.1

“No rush, everything has karma and destiny. For you, it lies in the mortal realm and your heart. You will know what to do.” Li Qiye said.0

“I understand.” The man bowed respectfully.0

The two continued to walk on the white beach and searched for beautiful shells. The fine, soft grains comforted their feet first with a pleasant sensation before permeating throughout their entire body.0

Shell searching was a happier process than becoming the strongest in the world.0

“This island isn’t bad, there are some nice things here.” Li Qiye commented with a smile.0

“Immortal Emperor Jing Yu resided here in seclusion.” The man tossed an imperfect shell back into the ocean and said: “The emperor experimented during his death, imprinting his dao into his bones and Heaven’s Will. Although he’s dead, he became eternal of sorts.”1

“Who doesn’t want to be eternal?” Li Qiye said.0

“But is it possible? Only immortals can reach this state.” The man smiled wryly.0

“It just depends on the definition and the method. Jing Yu’s result is a type of eternity.” Li Qiye said.0The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l.B1n.

“Is it truly indelible?” The man asked.0

“Some changes can be made because there is no absolute.” Li Qiye smiled.0

“You’re right, Your Excellency. I suppose I haven’t contemplated eternity, only wishing to traverse, witness, and experience.” The man commented.0

It raised the crystal piece high toward Li Qiye, seemingly wanting to chirp in excitement. He still hasn’t noticed it yet.0

The crab then made noises at the white cloud that was floating nearby. The latter glanced at Li Qiye and didn’t bother him.0

This forced the crab to climb up a coconut tree nearby and toss the crystal down at Li Qiye.2

He slowly opened his eyes, glancing at the crab and then the crystal. He raised it to eye level for a closer look. He knocked it gently and paid attention to the clicking noises.0

“Not bad.” Li Qiye praised: “Not just a simple death but also a dao burial, refining the true fate and everything else with the power of the Heaven’s Will. There’s no death like it.”0

The crab seemed to understand Li Qiye, chirping and gesturing with its claws as if trying to convey something.0

Li Qiye shook his head and said: “But I don’t need it, I’m not the fateful one.”0

The crab chirped repeatedly, trying to change his mind.0

“Although this thing is precious, I can randomly pick another item in my possession that is more precious.” Li Qiye said.0

The crab waved its claws, seemingly not giving up.0

“I know, I know, I have to refine it first for it to become a mighty defensive treasure. The problem is, it won’t be able to protect me where I’m going.” Li Qiye said.0

The crab still didn’t give up.0

“Don’t you know that if I refine it, I have to refine you too?” Li Qiye shook his head.0

The crab understood and instead of being afraid, it jumped up and chirped happily. This was akin to a crab near a frying pan with hot oil, deciding to jump in for a bath.0

“This is the first time I’ve seen a crab wanting to jump into the pot willingly, how courageous. You are a true role model, the crabs who don’t want to jump in are bad boys.” Li Qiye said with a smile.2

The crab jumped around joyfully after hearing his playful teasing.
