Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7431

Chapter 7345: Tightly Intertwined Fingers

Having completed a phase of cultivation, the two embarked together on their journey to the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar.

During this time, Li Tianming suddenly asked with some surprise, “Where are Brother and Chaohui? Shouldn’t we wait for them?”

“They already left seclusion before us. Why would we need to wait for them? They’re probably already there,” Li Chaoxi chuckled.

“Alright.” Li Tianming nodded, then his gaze gleamed. “I wonder what kind of powerful geniuses will be vying for power in the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War. Perhaps throwing myself into such a battle would be more beneficial to my cultivation.”

“We’ll find out when we get there. It’s too early to think about these things now. Besides…” Li Chaoxi smiled slightly, “Don’t let your confidence be shaken if you encounter some truly extraordinary genius.”

Li Tianming laughed and said, “How could that be? That would only ignite my fighting spirit even more.”

“Then let’s wait and see. To be honest, I’m also very curious about your performance.” Li Chaoxi nodded and smiled. “A person’s true strength doesn’t just depend on their talent in cultivation level, especially in this kind of genius battle. The pressure on participants is immense. It also depends on their mentality and their ability to handle complex battles effectively. In these aspects, at least from what I’ve seen so far, you surpass most people, including those from the Li Clan. I just don’t know how you’ll perform in the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War.”

Amidst their conversation, the two quickly arrived at the Heavenly Emperor Pillar.

Through the Line Source Walkway beneath the Heavenly Emperor Pillar, the two entered simultaneously.

This time, as soon as Li Tianming stepped inside, the Li Clan Emperor’s Decree at his waist emitted a dazzling golden light.

This light enveloped Li Tianming in the blink of an eye, somewhat similar to the effect of using the Sky-Stabilizing Butterfly.

However, in reality, its protection for the teleporter was far inferior to the Sky-Stabilizing Butterfly.

After all, one was merely a relatively small-scale teleportation corridor within the Heavenly Emperor Sect, while the other was a teleportation treasure capable of traversing endless distances.

The two were simply incomparable.

Soon, with a flash of golden light, the scene before Li Tianming switched to the Imperial Domain.

At that moment, Li Tianming’s right hand suddenly felt a soft sensation. He turned his head and saw that Li Chaoxi had taken his hand, their fingers intertwined.

Fortunately, Li Tianming was used to standing on the left side of others; otherwise, having his left hand held would have made it difficult to conceal his Heaven-Stealing Hand.

The two looked at each other, the atmosphere slightly i*imate.

Li Tianming didn’t say much, knowing that this was all part of the plan.

Sure enough, Li Chaoxi looked at Li Tianming, blinked, and said, “In a little while, there will be some elders besides my family. We need to act well to avoid arousing suspicion, so this is necessary.”

“Understood,” Li Tianming smiled slightly and nodded.

Even Li Chaoxi didn’t mind, so how could Li Tianming have any objections? Thus, the two walked hand in hand through the Imperial Domain.

Li Chaoxi intentionally walked closer to Li Tianming, making them look just like a newlywed couple deeply in love.

This time, the Li clan in the Imperial Domain didn’t secretly observe Li Tianming and Li Chaoxi as they had last time.

After all, for the Li clan, the controversial marriage was completely over, and for the Li clan, who valued their reputation, it was difficult to go back on their word.

Therefore, seeing the two walking together, more members of the Li clan began to discuss among themselves.

“Li Tianming has countless wives, a complete scumbag. What kind of bewitching potion did he give Li Chaoxi to make her so infatuated with him and insist on marrying him?”

“Maybe it wasn’t her own wish, but forced by her elders.”

“But the way they act so affectionately now, it doesn’t seem like coercion at all!”

“It’s just an act for everyone. Who knows if Li Chaoxi will secretly wash her hands of this philandering, filthy man? I feel disgusted just looking at him!”

The Li clan members who were watching spoke without restraint, though they did so behind Li Chaoxi’s back.

As long as they didn’t openly slander Li Chaoxi but instead slandered Li Tianming, they had no qualms. Li Chaoxi wouldn’t dare to cause them trouble unless they said it directly.

However, Li Tianming sensed from their words that, overall, these members of the Li clan were quite hostile towards him.

The best course of action was to remain silent; no one dared to say a good word for Li Tianming.

However, Li Tianming himself was exceptionally talented. His confidence stemmed from both his innate abilities and the powerful figures around him. These members of the Li imperial clan could only criticize him morally for having many wives.

“So, what do you think of these words?” Li Chaoxi chuckled, covering her mouth.

“Nothing much. I’ll silence them with my achievements, even making them honor me as a hero,” Li Tianming sneered.

“Quite the boast, but I believe you can do it, because you are a genius I acknowledge,” Li Chaoxi smiled sweetly.

The onlookers were too far away to hear their conversation, but their harmonious interaction was clearly visible.

Seeing this, those who condemned Li Tianming were even more furious, yet helpless.

After all, besides his own background, Li Tianming was also Li Dixiao’s son-in-law!

This identity alone was enough to shield him from many malicious attacks.

Li Tianming wasn’t just ‘playing husband and wife’ with Li Chaoxi; he was also secretly observing the racial characteristics of those around him.

Without exception, they all had a golden eye in their left palm.

Within the Imperial Domain, Li Tianming had not yet released Yin Chen, as there were simply too many powerful figures present, and he needed to avoid any unforeseen incidents.

While pondering this, a thought struck Li Tianming: he suddenly remembered that his right hand was currently holding the hand of a girl with golden eyes.

He remained outwardly calm, but secretly he was sensing something.

There was a faint warmth emanating from his palm…

but nothing else.

Li Tianming couldn’t be too obvious, lest he arouse suspicion, so he had to abandon his pursuit of this secret.

Finally, led by Li Chaoxi, Li Tianming arrived at a vast starry palace!

Looking up, Li Tianming saw a grand starry palace forged from countless starlight, its surface engraved with top-tier Dao patterns!

This palace was boundless, a colossal structure compared to the imperial palaces where the Li clan usually resided.

Its sheer size, encompassing a vast cosmic space, and its ancient and majestic appearance further demonstrated the Li clan’s profound power.

Without sufficient manpower and resources, and without a long history, it would be difficult to create such a miraculous building!
