Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7515

Chapter 7429: Farewell

In reality, Li Tianming had already exceeded Li Dixiao’s expectations; he could fight entirely for himself.

Achieving a ranking in the Myriad Sects Emperor Battle wasn’t just for the Heavenly Emperor Sect; for Li Tianming, it was also about gaining more opportunities for himself.

At this moment, as the Heavenly Emperor Sect members departed,

Li Tianming saw the Divine Ruins Ancient Sect not far away. He lightly leaped from his platform, landing gently in front of the Divine Ruins Ancient Sect members.

*Thud!

* “Li Tianming, disciple of the Li Clan’s Heavenly Emperor Sect, greets all seniors,” Li Tianming said, clasping his hands in a respectful but not arrogant manner.

Meanwhile, behind the Divine Ruins Ancient Sect, a group of young geniuses stood, with a dozen or so powerful members of the Divine Ruins Clan at the forefront.

Most of them remained indifferent, observing Li Tianming without speaking.

The group of geniuses at the back, however, were somewhat curious.

“Is this the ‘dark horse genius’ who defeated Wu Qi?”

“He doesn’t seem particularly special, and his cultivation level doesn’t seem high either. How could he defeat Wu Qi?”

“But since Wu Qi acknowledges him, he must be a decent genius…”

At this moment, Jiang Shuoyuan, dressed in a gray robe and with gray hair, glanced at Li Tianming.

He said indifferently, “This is a matter between you young people. You can discuss it yourselves.”

Clearly, he didn’t want to say more to Li Tianming, or perhaps he didn’t want to get involved with the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect behind him.

Li Tianming smiled slightly and said, “Thank you, senior.”

Sui Shenyao said somewhat indignantly, “How can these old men be so arrogant? Let Ling’er go in front of them, and see if they still dare to be so arrogant. They’ll all be begging to befriend us.”

“There are so many Divine Ruins Clan members in the world, Ling’er can’t manage them all. Let them be. But we can get to know this Jiang Wu Qi first,” Li Tianming replied in his mind.

Upon learning that Li Tianming had come looking for him, Jiang Wuqi immediately stepped out from the crowd at the back.

A group of curious young people at the back watched the two face to face with great interest.

“Senior Brother Li, why did you come? It seems like your people are all preparing to leave. Aren’t you in a hurry?” Jiang Wuqi asked, his eyes showing a mixture of joy and confusion.

Li Tianming was slightly taken aback. He was rarely addressed as “Senior Brother” in the Heavenly Emperor Sect, and felt a little uncomfortable.

However, he didn’t dwell on it. Instead, he took out the Sumeru Ring and handed it to him, saying, “We’re not in such a rush to leave, but I came here to return this to you.”

This was clearly the Sumeru Ring that Jiang Wuqi had left behind on the Super Star Battlefield after his defeat.

Jiang Wuqi was somewhat surprised upon seeing this. He said, “Why are you giving this to me? In the battlefield, losing things is not an option; you could even lose your life. There’s no reason to return it.”

Li Tianming, however, smiled and shook his head, saying, “Logically, that’s true, but we’ve become friends. How can I take what belongs to a friend? If you don’t accept this, I’ll just return the communication star tower to you. Without your communication star tower, I’ll have a clear conscience even with the Sumeru Ring.”

“No, no, no, I’ll take it, okay?” Jiang Wuqi quickly waved his hand and then accepted the Sumeru Ring with both hands.

After receiving the Sumeru Ring, he immediately put the Divine Ruins Emperor Sword, which he had temporarily been carrying on his back, into it.

From the slight upturn of the other’s lips, it was clear that Jiang Wuqi was quite pleased.

“Are you leaving after delivering this? You won’t be coming back for the next two thousand years?” Jiang Wuqi seemed to suddenly remember something and asked.

“More or less,” Li Tianming nodded frankly. “The upcoming battles might be even more brutal, so I need to prepare more thoroughly to handle more complex situations.”

“I see… What a pity. If only I had met you before the battle, maybe we could have met again in the next round.” Jiang Wuqi’s eyes lowered slightly, seemingly a little disappointed.

“Are you going to stay here for a long time?” Li Tianming asked curiously, seeing that the other party seemed to have no intention of leaving.

Jiang Wuqi nodded, somewhat helplessly. “Yes, I still have many of my clansmen brothers and sisters who haven’t been eliminated yet. They will all participate in the second round of battles, so I’m not in a hurry to go back. I’ll wait a little longer. Anyway, I’ve already been eliminated, so waiting won’t hurt.”

He seemed a little disappointed that he hadn’t made it to the next round and that Li Tianming was leaving.

Li Tianming smiled and said, “It’s alright. At least you’re still young, and you still have a chance to fight again. You’ll definitely achieve better results next time.”

“You really think so?” Jiang Wuqi’s eyes suddenly lit up upon hearing this.

“Of course, I only narrowly defeated you. You have many more opportunities; perhaps we’ll even have a chance to fight again next time,” Li Tianming said with a smile, patting the other’s shoulder reassuringly.

“Alright! Then I’ll defeat you again next time. I’ll definitely train hard when I get back this time,” Jiang Wuqi said proudly with a smile.

“Sure, I’ll be waiting for you,” Li Tianming smiled slightly as well.

In reality, the geniuses of the Divine Ruins Ancient Sect enjoyed far better resources than Li Tianming, whether it was the others or Jiang Wuqi.

Jiang Wuqi did suffer from his age, which is why he wasn’t among the top in the first round of competition.

Of course, the fundamental reason for his elimination was that he encountered Li Tianming.

At this time, Jiang Wuqi was somewhat doubting himself, and after Li Tianming helped him regain his confidence, Jiang Wuqi seemed to feel that Li Tianming was a close older brother even more.

In fact, it was still unclear whether Li Tianming was older or younger than him, but that didn’t matter.

What mattered was that their relationship gradually improved, taking a step closer from their initial meeting.

Li Tianming wasn’t truly integrated into the society of Fengxu yet.

But now, with Jiang Wuqi as a friend, traversing Fengxu would be much easier for him.

Finally, seeing that it was almost time, Li Tianming smiled and said, “Although I’m leaving now, I still need to participate in the next round of the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor War, so I’ll be back at any time. I have to go now; my sect members have been waiting for me for too long. Anyway, there’s a communication star tower, so we can meet again when I come back.”

“Okay,” Jiang Wuqi immediately nodded and smiled, wishing him a safe journey.
