Chapter 6716 Shameless Old Fogey?

This chapter is updated by Novels.pl

A tall, muscular elder appeared, his frame like an iron tower.

His hair was white, but his eyes crackled with vitality. Despite his age, his Blood Qi surged like a raging dragon.

Everyone was shocked by his appearance and hastily bowed their heads.

Greetings, Palace Master!

This was Li Canghao, the palace master of the Starry River Palace and the one who held its absolute authority.

His face looked as though it had been carved by a knife, and he had a large and imposing presence.

Just by standing in the sky, he looked like a spear driven between heaven and earth. His imposing air was suffocating.

Li Wanci frantically shouted, Patriarch, Long Chen is crazy! He wishes to

What did you call me? Li Canghao interrupted coldly.

Patriarch no, Palace Master! Long Chen

Li Canghao raised a finger. Space twisted, and Li Wanci was abruptly dragged before him.

Li Wanci had been hiding in a secret place, but Li Canghao simply pulled her out using some unknown means. A chill ran through her heart. It was clear that her patriarch had no intention of hearing explanations.

Palace Master, I Li Wanci cried, panic flooding her voice. But before she could finish, her body stiffened. She froze, unable to speak.

Li Canghao stared at her, his gaze cold and distant.

He said, Li Zimo. Back then, you were too sharp and impetuous. You acted stubbornly, never listening to anyone else. Most importantly, your heart was too small to contain anything but yourself. I knew you would walk a crooked path sooner or later. That is why I changed your name to Wanci, hoping you would reflect and correct your faults.

Our nine star line cultivates astral energy. We must comprehend the Dao of the starsthe benevolence of the dazzling starlight. The stars cannot shine alongside the sun, yet they exist at the same time. When the sun is not shining, the stars reveal their light. They do not fight over who contributes more, nor do they compete with heaven and earth

When Li Canghao suddenly called Li Wanci Li Zimo again, Qu Liushang felt a jolt of realization. Taking back her original name, did this mean?

Long Chens expression was apathetic. Evilmoon rested in his hand, and his aura was coiled tight, ready to erupt at any moment. No matter who appeared today, Li Wanci had to die.

Li Wanci was panicking, tears streaming down her face. She struggled to explain herself, but her seal held firm, silencing her.

You have strayed further and further down the wrong path, Li Canghao continued calmly. Even now, you feel no remorse for your actions.

Li Wanci suddenly spat out blood and managed to forcibly break the seal.

I did everything for the Starry River Palace! she screamed. Its Long Chen who wants to topple us! He possesses one of the primal chaos divine items, the Heaven Earth Cauldron! As long as we seize it, the Starry River Palace will definitely

She coughed violently, blood spilling from her lips. Uttering just those words had come at a tremendous price.

One of the ten primal chaos divine items?!

The Heaven Earth Cauldron?

The Starry River Palace erupted. Countless eyes locked onto Long Chen, filled with shock and disbelief. He was actually hiding the Heaven Earth Cauldron?

Qu Liushang was also shocked. He had known that Long Chen must possess extraordinary treasures to reach such strength at such a young age, but he had never imagined one of them would be a primal chaos divine item. That was a stunning revelation.

In front of everyones shocked and greedy gazes, Long Chens expression didnt change. He only watched without saying a word.

Li Canghao looked at Li Wanci and nodded. So you are after Long Chens Heaven Earth Cauldron.

Li Wancis face was drained of color. In her desperation, she had spoken the truth, laying bare her true motive. Clearly, the claim that Long Chen wanted to topple the Starry River Palace lacked weight in front of the Heaven Earth Cauldron.

But unexpectedly, Li Canghao nodded again.

That is not wrong. After all, it is one of the primal chaos divine items. If my Starry River Palace were to obtain it, we would surely rise. Leaving such a priceless treasure in the hands of a Sovereign Lord disciple is indeed a waste.

Master! Qu Liushang exclaimed, staring at Li Canghao in disbelief.

He couldnt believe that such a thing would come out of his masters mouth.

Long Chen is here. He cannot escape, Li Canghao said evenly. Perhaps fate has decreed that the Heaven Earth Cauldron should belong to us. In that case, we shall vote. Use your tablets to decide whether the Heaven Earth Cauldron remains with Long Chen or goes to the rightful hands of the Starry River Palace.

The Starry River Palace tablets had many functions. Among them was the ability to vote on matters of great importance.

With a serious expression, Li Canghao looked around the plaza, and his voice spread throughout every corner of the Starry River Palace.

A human life is precious. I hope everyone can think it through before voting. In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I will announce the results of the vote.

This is unfair! Qu Yingying shouted. The Heaven Earth Cauldron belongs to Long Chen! What right do you have to call this its rightful home? Youre shamelessabsolutely shameless!

The expressions of the Qu familys experts changed sharply. She dared curse the palace master? Did this foolish girl no longer want to live?

Unfair? What a naive word. How did you manage to say something so foolish? Li Canghao asked, looking at Qu Yingying apathetically.

You old fogey! Qu Yingying furiously cursed him.

However, in her weakened state, she suddenly found herself gasping for breath. The laws of the Starry River Palace had changed, and she was no longer recovering on her own.

Realizing this, she grew even angrier. She felt certain it was this old mans doing. Panting, she tried to curse him again, but Long Chen placed a hand on her shoulder.

He indicated for her not to worry and stop cursing.

At that moment, the starry river trembled. A projection appeared in the air. There were three towering pillars of light: red, orange, and blue.

Red signified approval. Blue represented opposition. Orange marked abstention.

When Qu Liushang saw that the red pillar was nearly equal to the combined height of the other two, a wave of sorrow washed over him.

This meant half of the people in the Starry River Palace had voted to take the Heaven Earth Cauldron from Long Chen.

Of the remainder, thirty percent opposed, while the rest abstained. This result laid bare a harsh truththe greed in peoples hearts far exceeded their sense of righteousness.

Li Canghao stared at the projection without expression. No one could tell what he was thinking. At that moment, the restraints on Li Wanci vanished.

She laughed excitedly. Patriarchno, Palace Master, you see it now! Half the Starry River Palace agrees with me! This proves I was not wrong!

The Starry River warriors tightened their grips on their weapons. Even knowing they would surely die, they were prepared to fight to the end.

Yes, Li Canghao said softly. You truly were not wrong. In this chaotic world, being pure is a kind of mistake.

He sighed. A flicker of pain crossed his eyes as hs hands slowly formed a seal.

Suddenly, the starry river quivered.

Countless astral chains shot out, piercing the bodies of countless experts in the Starry River Palace and lifting them into the sky.

Master, no!

Qu Liushang leaped forward. At last, he understood his masters intent, and a bone-deep chill raced down his spine.
