"You… you've met the Elder Ancestor?" Li Qiye's words shook Niu Fen to his core. His eyes went wide as he stared at Li Qiye in utter disbelief. Upon reflection, he realized there was only one being in the entire world who could possibly know his clan's Eighteen Understandings! The fact that Li Qiye knew them meant he must have met that legendary existence!
"That isn't important," Li Qiye said. "Serve me with all your heart and strength, and one day, you will ascend to the realm of gods!"
"At your command, Young Noble, I will go through fire and water!" Niu Fen kowtowed, prostrating himself on the ground.
Li Qiye gave a slight nod. "Now listen closely. I don't intend to repeat myself. Don't bring shame upon your Celestial Bull Ancestral Calamity clan."
Niu Fen straightened his robes and sat in a posture of utmost respect, hanging on Li Qiye's every word.
