Chapter 1053: Primordial Seed

Chapter 1053: Primordial Seed

A majestic flying ship pierced through the clouds, smoothly maneuvering as if traveling over land. On the hull of the vessel was a lifelike fire lotus pattern.

This was the flying ship of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing.

And at this moment, Qin Lian was sitting cross-legged in the cabin on the top floor of the flying ship, her gaze fixed on the beautiful figure in front of her as she calmly asked, "Qin Yi, have you completed the task I entrusted you with?"

Complicated emotions surfaced on Qin Yi's stunningly beautiful cheeks. She naturally knew about the task that Qin Lian was talking about. It was for her to find an opportunity to obtain a piece of Li Luo's flesh and blood.

She gently shook her head and said, "I've disappointed you, Mother. Li Luo's defenses against me were immensely solid, and the trump card he had hidden was extremely strong. Not only was Zhao Yan heavily injured by him, I even witnessed him slay the True Devil Other with my own eyes. Therefore, I could not obtain his flesh and blood."

Qin Lian's face chilled slightly as she said, "You're too much of a disappointment!"

Qin Yi slightly hung her head and said, "I apologize for my incompetence."

Qin Lian stared at her daughter and said in a cold voice, "I'm warning you right now. That Li Luo brat is indeed good-looking, but I am mortal enemies with his family. Either I will die at their hands, or they will die at my hands one day. As my daughter, you'd better figure out where you stand!"

Qin Yi softly replied, "What are you saying, Mother? There is no relationship between Li Luo I. You are my mother, so I will stand by your side no matter what."

Qin Lian smiled, and her expression eased a little as her eyes flickered. "You said earlier that Li Luo entered the medicine hut without displaying the plaque? And the White Ape there took him into the main house?"

Qin Yi nodded and said, "That's correct. I didn't see Li Luo take out any plaque, and the White Ape seemed to be quite courteous and even respectful to him. My guess is that perhaps Li Luo was extremely lucky and obtained an important status in the Spiritual Resonance Cave."n-/OVelb1n

Qin Lian sneered and said, "How could a status obtained within the Spiritual Resonance Cave be higher than the elder plaque I gave you? I found that plaque in the ruins of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect, along with the information about the medicine hut..."

Qin Yi was puzzled. "Then why would the White Ape be so polite to him and even invite into the main house? I surmise that Li Luo gained a lot of rewards there."

Qin Lian's eyes flickered before she waved her hand and said, "Forget it. This issue has already passed, so there is no need to pursue it any further. After you return, you must start making preparations for breaking into the Heavenly Resonance Stage in the future."

Qin Yi nodded in response before turning around and withdrawing.

Following Qin Yi's departure, Qin Lian's face sharply turned icy and her eyes glittered with suspicion. "That brat Li Luo was respectfully ushered into the main house by the White Ape without presenting the elder plaque. His identity..."

As such, whether it was the Others, the human race, or other living beings, everyone took a great interest in the Primordial Seed.

Because in the long records of history, there had always been a saying: chaos is primordial.

There were some who said that chaos was perhaps the origin of the Others... After all, the most frightening and disturbing existences to all living things under heaven and earth were the Others.

But the Primordial Seed was the oldest hidden secret in the world, and it presented a temptation no one could resist.

Silence fell within the secret chamber.

The wild surges in Qin Jiujie's eyes finally calmed down. Even he could not be unruffled when the Primordial Seed was mentioned.

"Well, it is also possible that the Primordial Seed is still within the ruins of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect, and that Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan may not have obtained it back then," Qin Jiujie slowly said. The implications of the Primordial Seed were too great, so only Qin Jiujie and those in true positions of power within the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing were privy to this information. Even then, they did not dare to hunt down Li Taixuan too aggressively, because they all understood that although he had left the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, Li Jingzhe was always on the lookout. If they acted too aggressively, they would inevitably attract suspicion.

Of course, another important issue was that nobody could truly ascertain if Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan had obtained the Primordial Seed.

All of this was just based on Qin Lian's suspicions.

However, even if it was just a guess, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing had acted as if they were ready to go to war with the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li.

"Grand Palace Master, what if they really did manage to obtain the Primordial Seed?" Qin Lian queried softly. Qin Jiujie fell silent. If Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan had indeed gotten their hands on the Primordial Seed, it would only be a matter of time before the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li would far surpass the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing.

If that ever occurred, then the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing would definitely pay the price for the enmity that was sown between the two.

The silence lasted for an uncomfortable length of time before Qin Jiujie slowly closed his eyelids and said, "Li Jingzhe's advancement to the Dual Crowned King Tier has greatly increased the strength of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. And making such a huge spectacle of attacking Divine Tiger King Zhao Zong was meant to warn us not to even think of doing anything to Li Luo. He is warning us. Therefore, as long as Li Jingzhe is around, we won't be able to touch Li Luo."

Qin Jiujie smiled faintly and gazed at Qin Lian.

"This situation still requires some plotting. Wait for now, I have my own plans."

Qin Lian understood what he meant. She hung her head and complied, but as she stared at the ground, she pictured the faces of Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan, her gaze turning ice-cold.
