Chapter 740: Cloud Soaring Venerable

Under the madam's lead, the Cloud Soaring Venerable came in. Moreover, he was not the only person. Behind him was the White Cloud Master who hung his head low.

The venerable had a middle-aged appearance along with an elegant air, making people think that he was born a noble. However, he had a pair of fierce eyes, so it was apparent that he was an unfathomable character.

Don't be fooled by his outward appearance and gallant temperament, he was actually a centipede demon that had access to extremely ruthless methods.

He came in and immediately cupped his hands towards Li Qiye in a very polite and even respectful manner before saying: "Your great fame resounds like thunder, I have been an admirer for a long time."

Although he was still relatively young, the venerable was already a very powerful Heaven's Equal King — the peak of this realm. Outside of the old undyings that had already been famous before the Difficult Dao Era, very few characters in the same generation as him were stronger. Because of this, he was strong enough to create his own sect.

He already had a great status in the Stone Medicine World, but his position only became prevalent after joining Ye Qingcheng. Everyone knew that if Ye Qingcheng became the Immortal Emperor in the future, then the venerable would be a founder and perhaps would be bestowed the title of being the most meritorious contributor!

In the Stone Medicine World, many sects and imperial lineages treated the venerable with great courtesy. Even if he wasn't greatly valued by Ye Qingcheng, his power as a Heaven's Equal King alone was enough to win respect.

However, not to mention a Heaven's Equal King, even a legendary eternal existence wouldn't be able to move Li Qiye. He said lightly: "Have a seat."

While the venerable took a seat, the White Cloud Master quickly rushed forward and prostrated on the ground without daring to lift his head for the time being.

Li Qiye looked at the prostrating master and asked the Cloud Soaring Venerable: "What is the meaning of this?"

The Cloud Soaring Venerable responded humbly: "The White Cloud Master is here to apologize to Young Noble. He was imperious and used our Young Noble Ye's name to act as he pleased. This was ruining our Young Noble's reputation, so he is especially here to ask for forgiveness. Young Noble Li can deal with him as you wish."

Whether this idea was from Ye Qingcheng or the Cloud Soaring Venerable, it was quite a formidable attempt. The White Cloud Master was the leader of a sect. Although it was far from an imperial lineage, it was still a first-rate sect, even if it barely met the criteria. But today, the master willingly prostrated before Li Qiye and acquiesced to his whims.

Prostrating to anyone was a great humiliation to any accomplished cultivator. There was a creed: one can be killed but not shamed. However, either Ye Qingcheng or the Cloud Soaring Venerable was able to make white cloud obediently come to confess — this was indeed a very frightening feat.

Li Qiye was too lazy to care, so he replied: "It seems that your play isn't too bad. This is indeed a bit impressive, no wonder why your master, Ye Qingcheng, has so much support from others."

"Young Noble Li, you are misunderstanding us. We are here to sincerely beg for your forgiveness." The Cloud Soaring Venerable hurriedly said: "Our master is willing to befriend the heroes in this world and to work—"

"Okay, I don't have time to listen to this crap, and I also don't have any interest in taking it out on this cannon fodder. If you wish to apologize, then let Ye Qingcheng come himself. As for someone like the White Cloud Master, step to the side and don't waste my time!" Li Qiye interrupted the venerable and waved his sleeve dismissively.
