Emperor’s Domination

The lord realized his folly in questioning an immortal’s ability. Although an emperor couldn’t spot the divine artifact, this didn’t mean an immortal couldn’t.

“Please forgive my impudence, I didn’t mean it like that.” He turned pale and apologized.

However, the duo only paid attention to his daughter.

“Young Noble, this isn’t an issue, we just have to refine her.” Xiaoyue said.

“What?!” The lord immediately rushed over and blocked them from his daughter.

“Bam!” He knelt to the ground and begged: “Immortals, please show mercy and spare my daughter! Please show mercy!”

Ever since he brought her back, he has loved her like a daughter despite her intellectual deficiencies.

“Rise.” Li Qiye waved his hand.

However, the lord continued begging: “She’s, she’s innocent, she didn’t know what she was doing, her mind isn’t all there.”

“You love her?” Li Qiye asked.

“Yes, she, she saved my life, I am willing to exchange my life for hers.” He made up his mind.

“Admirable.” Li Qiye praised. After all, cultivators often viewed mortals as inferior and worthless.

In this case, a prestigious cultivator treasured this foolish girl more than his life.

“Your life isn’t worth much.” Xiaoyue shook her head.

“I, I know…” The lord lowered his head, aware that he was just an insect – nothing compared to the divine artifact.

Sorrow and helplessness overwhelmed him since he couldn’t save his daughter. She seemed to sense his sadness and came closer, pulling on his sleeve and staring at him.

He gently patted her head and she hugged his thigh. He sat down to embrace her, unable to stop tears from streaming out.

“It’s my fault for being weak.” He caressed her cheek.

Although prejudice was rampant against people like her, especially in the royal family, this never lessened his love.

“We don’t have to refine her.” Li Qiye smiled.

“Really?” He shouted before realizing Li Qiye was showing mercy. He kneeled again and repeated: “Thank you, Immortal, thank you so much for sparing my daughter’s life, I will toil for you for the rest of my life.”

“Rise.” Li Qiye waved again before staring at the girl: “This form won’t do.”

“What form?” The lord murmured.

“What do you think she is?” Xiaoyue asked.

“Immortla, it doesn’t matter what she is, she is my daughter.” He took a deep breath and said.

“Fate is not always the deciding factor, it can be forged through love and devotion.” Li Qiye said.

Although the lord didn’t understand, he knew his daughter was saved. Alas, the matter of extracting the divine artifact still worried him.

“Are you not interested in this bloodline?” Li Qiye asked Xiaoyue.

“Not at all.” She denied.

“Really? This is a good opportunity to find it.” He smirked.

“It shouldn’t exist in Beastmaster.” She said.

“I disagree, especially after seeing her.” He said.

“Hmm… but this world can’t derive it.” She stared at the girl.

“Not in Beastmaster and not a product of derivation.” He said.

“Impossible.” Her expression changed.

“Impossible to which part? No derivation for something like this or, another matter?” He asked.

She let out a sigh upon hearing this before saying: “It can’t happen in other places either.”

“If I’m not mistaken, there is a place where this is possible. You know too.” He said.

“The place where this is possible, Divine Firmament.” She admitted.

“Thus, it is not impossible. This is not a problem regarding the bloodline but rather, the origin.” He said.

“But only divine beasts are born in Divine Firmament, no other bloodlines or lifeforms.” She shook her head.
