Chapter 0824: Qin Lian

The tall Chu Qing stood up with a smile after Qin Yi's greetings and replied to her warmly, "How did it go, Junior Sister? Did you have fun?"

Qin Yi smiled sweetly and responded, "Senior Chu, you should have gone instead. There were a lot of people who admired you there."

In response, Chu Qing shook his head and said, "I am older than you and everyone there. At present, the Heavenly Dragon Guardians of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, those from the same generation as me, are all out on missions. What could I have done if I had gone?"

He was already at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier and he was older than Qin Yi, Li Qingfeng, and the rest. As such, mingling with the younger crowd was not appropriate for his status and neither was he interested in frolicking with some youths just for some praise.

He had already gotten into the Empyrean Chronicle with his own strength and made a name for himself among the youths in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. In contrast, Li Qingfeng and the rest still needed many more years of hard work before they could reach his level. Even if he had gone to the banquet, he would merely have bullied the weaker ones with his overwhelming strength, which would be very boring.

At this moment, Qin Lian, who was seated at the host seat, stared at Qin Yi and asked, "You have seen the top talents in the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. How are they?"

Qin Yi pondered for a moment before replying, "Li Qingfeng is indeed quite capable. Under normal circumstances, he should become the Dragon's Head for this generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li."

Qin Lian nodded and continued, "Compared to you?"

Qin Yi laughed a little as she replied, "I am slightly better."

At this moment, Qin Lian lowered her eyes slightly and stared at the wine glass in front of her. "Did you see that person?" she asked. As she inquired, her eyes became a little cold.

Both Qin Yi and Chu Qing could clearly feel the subtle change in her emotions, and so they straightened their backs.

Qin Yi nodded lightly as she responded in a soft tone, "Yes, I met him. His name is Li Luo, and he is currently at the Greater Fiend Palace Tier. He possesses triple resonances and extraordinary talent. Based on what I have seen, if he was not born in the outer divine continent and had stayed in the Dragon's Fang Lineage all this while, he probably would have surpassed Li Qingfeng."

Hearing this, Qin Lian's face turned a little cold and she sneered in response. "He truly is the son of Li Taixuan and that bitch. How could he simply be a mediocre person?"

"Hmph, that bitch killed my family, ruined my marriage, and made me lose face. She is lucky that she is not in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent now. Otherwise, I would definitely make her pay with her blood!" Qin Lian slammed the table, and it instantly shattered into powder. At the same time, the surrounding space began twisting repeatedly and a terrifying heat emitted from her body. Qin Yi and Chu Qing looked at each other quietly. Neither of them dared to speak up.

After all these years, they knew that Qin Lian would lose herself like this whenever those two people were mentioned.

After Qin Lian vented her anger for a while, she took a deep breath as she watched with cold eyes and continued, "I believe that Li Luo is extremely annoying as well."

Li Luo's face flashed across Qin Yi's mind at this moment. She wanted to say that although he was indeed irritating, he was actually pretty good-looking.

Of course, she could tell that Qin Lian was still furious and dared not speak the words in her mind.

"Do you feel confident in winning against Li Luo?" Qin Lian suddenly asked.

Qin Yi hesitated for a moment before she replied, "He's in the Greater Fiend Palace Tier currently. There is not much of a threat coming from him. However, if we act against him, I am afraid the Dragon's Fang Lineage will not take it lying down."

"Old Li Jingzhe only said that our enmity should end at the last generation. If it's a battle amongst those in the same generation, what can he say?" Qin Lian said with an emotionless face.

Qin Yi kept quiet after hearing this.

"There is no hurry for this matter now. Ultimately, this place is the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. If the chance arises in the future, I hope that you will make that little brat pay. I want everyone in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent to know that my daughter, the daughter of Qin Lian, is hundreds of times stronger than the son of Li Taixuan and that bitch," Qin Lian told her as murderous intent surfaced within her eyes.

Helpless before her mother's resentment, Qin Yi calmly replied in a soft tone, "Understood."

With the enmity from the past generation looking over them, it was impossible for Li Luo and her to coexist. A bloody battle would definitely unfold between the two, perhaps even to the death.

However, Qin Yi did not feel threatened by Li Luo's current strength at all. If they did meet in other circumstances one day, Li Luo would only have his bad luck to blame. Although this was enmity from the previous generation, her mother was not a broad-minded person. If she did not shatter Li Luo completely, there could be a punishment waiting for her when she returned.

At the same time, Qin Lian also said, "I heard that the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool will be opened during the birthday banquet of the Dragon's Blood Lineage's Lineage Chief tomorrow. This will be a test for the younger generation of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages. Based on what I gathered, the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool was supposed to open two to three years from now. It was suddenly brought forward because Li Jingzhe from the Dragon's Fang Lineage changed his mind. I wager that he did it for Li Luo."

"Hehe, Li Jingzhe really loves his grandson, doesn't he? He's even willing to go back on his previous decision. However, does he really think that his grandson, who is merely at the Greater Fiend Palace Tier, can get a Coiling Dragon Pillar?" Qin Lian asked with a freezing face.

"What would you like to do, Mom?" Qin Yi asked.

Qin Lian grinned coldly and replied, "I was planning to let you join in the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool battle tomorrow."

"But this is a rare opportunity for the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Others aren't allowed to participate," Qin Yi responded in surprise.

"The Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Blood Lineage has always wanted to get closer with the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing. He wants to improve our relationship after what happened back then. He will not turn me down over such a small matter. Besides, it's just a competition among those of the same generation. If the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li dares not accept it, won't they become a joke in front of the other guests?"

Qin Yi pondered for a moment before she replied, "No wonder you accepted the invitation. You even brought the Fire Lotus Camp along."

There were a total of twenty-three halls in the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing. Each hall had one camp, just like the setup seen in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages' Twenty Banners. And the Fire Lotus Camp was the team led by Qin Yi.

They were the strongest of the Twenty-three Halls of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing. Their strength was extraordinary.

"If you can participate tomorrow, you will represent us, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing, to gauge the power of this generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Remember, there is no need to hold back. If the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li is humiliated, it'll be because they are too weak. They won't be able to blame anyone else for it," Qin Lian said indifferently.

Qin Yi's eyes flickered slightly. She understood that even after so many years, her mother still harbored deep resentment towards the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Now she was planning to vent her anger a little in the name of a competition among the younger generation.

As Qin Lian stared at her daughter’s jade-white, enchanting face, she continued, "Most importantly, I want you to keep a close eye on Li Luo. There are six Coiling Dragon Pillars in the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool, and I don’t want him to get one. I can’t wait to see how that old man Li Jingzhe will react when he fails."

Qin Yi thought for a moment and replied, "The Green Nether Banner led by Li Luo is only average among the Twenty Banners. Even if I do nothing to him, he will still be unable to get even one of the Coiling Dragon Pillars."

"That is for the best." Qin Lian laughed coldly.

Afterwards, she chatted with Qin Yi for a while longer before she waved her hand and dismissed the two of them.

After Qin Yi and Chu Qing left the room, Qin Lian's face became darker and darker. She murmured to herself in a low voice, "Li Taixuan, Tan Tailan, just what was that secret treasure that you took from the Holy Altar of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect? Is that thing in your hands right now? Or have you given it to Li Luo?"
