Chapter 6786: Thirteen Palaces

“No.” The baldy refused.

“That’s it? No negotiation or anything as a businessman?” Li Qiye asked.

“Hah, old man, you misunderstood.” He said: “I don’t agree to all deals, especially with you. Nothing good comes from dealing with you, my reputation will be ruined and everyone will be killed.”

“I’ll kill them either way since they deserve it.” Li Qiye smiled.

“As long as I am not involved, that’s fine.” He said.

“Very well.” Li Qiye agreed.

“Really?” He found this strange.

“Of course.” Li Qiye said.

He stared at the youth nearby and said: “The old man never gives up before achieving his goal. Do you think he’ll give up this easily?”

“Yes, but in the end, nothing escapes his grasp.” The youth said.

“Sounds right.” The baldy said.

“Don’t worry, my merciful nature never allows me to force anyone.” Li Qiye said.

“Please, old man, you are monstrous. If you are merciful, then I am the world’s savior.” He said.

“You can’t be one.” Li Qiye stared at him and said.

“Then I’ll be a good person for eras to come.” He was annoyed with Li Qiye’s response.

“You can walk the path that you prefer but once chosen, you must make it to the end, even if it has to be on your knees.” Li Qiye said.

“Old man, all I’m hearing is you cursing me the whole day.” He said.

“Haven’t you cursed me before?” Li Qiye asked.

“Please, you think too highly of me. My little fortune can’t curse you, only a few bad remarks here and there. Plus, so many have chastised you, one more didn’t matter.” He said.

“True.” Li Qiye nodded.

“Sigh, it’s such bad luck to be involved with you, stinky and stubborn old man.” He said.

“Maybe it’s time for me to become a good person, let you see the heaven?” Li Qiye joked.

“Please, please.” This scared him as he waved repeatedly: “You’re already good enough, you don’t have to try any harder, not for me...”

“Oh okay, it’s not that I don’t want to, it’s because you don’t want my help.” Li Qiye said.

“Fine, you win, old man, I will walk my path.” He looked as if he were at a funeral.

“It’s good to be free, you won’t be able to handle my help or control.” Li Qiye said.

“Yes, I’m not a masochist so my life would be miserable under your watch, I would rather suffer on my own terms.” He said.

“Don’t want to be the high heaven?” Li Qiye asked.

“Of course, don’t go putting these thoughts into my head, I’m doing well living down here.” He said.

“Now do you see how open-minded I was? Letting you live as your best self.” Li Qiye said.

“Yes, you are the best, wisest, and mightiest.” He nodded repeatedly.

“Don’t worry.” Li Qiye chuckled after seeing the baldy: “I don’t want a silly fool like you to be by my side, just looking at you is annoying.”

“I don’t want you near me either, old man. Bah, you’re always looking fierce and threatening to wipe people out, my potential friends will scatter upon seeing you.” He said.

“So yeah, let’s mind our own business. Does it still feel like I’m bad luck now?” Li Qiye patted his shoulder.

“I suppose it’s not all bad.” He said: “Not the worst but I still don’t want to be with you. My aura blinds others with its greatness, but it will be reduced to a little spark with the sun above me. Old man, let’s just pretend we don’t know each other, don’t tell anyone else either.”

“I don’t want to recognize a useless son like you either.” Li Qiye grinned.

“Bah, what’s that supposed to mean? I haven’t looked down on you yet!” He said.

“We don’t have to look at each other.” Li Qiye said.

“Good, we'll go our separate ways after this.” He said.

The two exchanged glances after saying this.

“You returned recently?” Li Qiye asked.

“I sneak down from time to time.” He said proudly.

“It’s not a good thing.” Li Qiye shook his head.

“Old man, you’re behind the times. It’s not like the old days, now it’s very easy.” He patted Li Qiye’s shoulder back, seemingly pleased with himself.

“Purewood Divine Emperor connected Immortal Dao City to the six continents.” The youth nearby elaborated.

“Not a good thing either.” Li Qiye frowned.

“They’ve thought about it already. Purewood was quite cool upon arrival. The dao erupted and he broke his ancestor’s record, becoming an immortal right away. He then resided over the portal, so entry isn’t simple.” The baldy smiled.

“Yes, he was cool indeed. That dao eruption overshadowed all geniuses.” The youth nodded.

“Because you haven’t seen the eruption of thirteen palaces.” Li Qiye said.

“That Trinity Ancestor fella?” The baldy asked.

“He’s not the only one with thirteen palaces, Li Baye did it too.” The youth said.

“So what? One is enough for me. Thirteen palaces are just for showing off.” The baldy responded.

“It’s a shame you don’t have thirteen.” Li Qiye criticized.

“My one palace can defeat thirteen palaces.” The baldy arched his chest forward.

“Really?” Li Qiye smirked.

He hesitated for a moment before confirming: “Of course, my one palace is enough. And old man, you only have one as well. I’m talking about fighting the thirteen palaces, not you.”

“Coward.” Li Qiye slapped his smooth head.

“Am I wrong? Would you have abandoned them if they were that amazing?” The baldy grumbled indignantly: “If thirteen could beat one, you would have kept using them.”
