The imperial aura froze and made them feel like drowning mortals.

“Ancestor Ten-realm!” The two saw a handsome youth approach.

Ten different regions floated around him. The inhabitants worshipped him like a god.

He was the most talented and strongest emperor in Desolate Frontier. He was the successor of the Chen, rumored to take the eleventh-generation spot. His becoming a primal ancestor was only a matter of time.

After inheriting Tenth-gen Chen’s legacy, he would have a strong shot at becoming a supreme overlord.

Although considerably younger, he was stronger than Crimson Virtue Emperor, only one step away from obtaining a primal anima.

“Alch-deer, you have improved dramatically.” He said.

Alch-deer admitted that Ten-realm Emperor was the number one in the sect right now. The second rank, Crimson Virtue, didn’t come close in power or talent.

“I recall when we first met, you were a fawn dropping paralyzed to the ground upon seeing people. Yet in just a short time, you became an emperor. Looks like the young generation will surpass us in time.” Ten-realm commented.

With regard to actual age, Ten-realm might be younger than the deer demon. Thus, although it sounded as if he was praising Alch-deer, he was reminding him of the difference in talent.

Alch-deer nodded and said: “Yes, when we first met, Ancestor, you looked like an unreachable god. You were my target for a long time, I dreamed of becoming as strong as you.”

“You might just do that in the future.” Ten-realm smiled.

Despite the polite conversation, his aura and gaze still made it uncomfortable for Alch-deer.

“Your dao foundation has boundless potential. Why not visit Centurial Peak, perhaps you will gain something there.” He continued.

Huntblade heard the recruitment attempt and became alarmed. Alch-deer might be a new emperor but he had many students, being in charge of Hundred Peak.

“We appreciate your kind intention, Ancestor. Today, we come to deliver a message.” Huntblade winked at Alch-deer first before speaking.

He wanted Alch-deer to stay with his branch for many reasons.

“What is the message?” Ten-realm asked.

“The ancestor wishes to add to his garden and ask everyone to contribute since there are plenty at the main peaks.” Alch-deer said with a smile.

“Which ancestor?” Ten-realm focused his gaze, causing Alch-deer to stagger one step backward.

“Our Desolate Frontier’s supreme ancestor.” Alch-deer took a deep breath and arched his chest.

“No such ancestor exists.” Ten-realm said.

“Wisdom Ancestor referred to him as an ancestor.” Huntblade said.

“Older than Wisdom Ancestor includes Ancestor Jiang and our Ancestor Chen, no one else.” Ten-realm said.

Alch-deer and Huntblade exchanged glances.

“Our Desolate Frontier has a rich history. There must be someone older and now, he has returned. This marks a joyous occasion for our sect.” Alch-deer said confidently.

“Let me inquire on this matter.” Ten-realm’s head rotated, capable of seeing all four directions and the world. He traveled to the past to research the history of the sect.

“I have spoken to my ancestor and observed the river of time, there are no traces of this so-called ancestor. He is a pretender.” Ten-realm assumed his normal appearance and said.

“Impossible!” Huntblade blurted.

“I’m afraid you all were careless and mistook a stranger as an ancestor. This is a grave mistake.” Ten-realm’s voice became serious.

“The ancestor isn’t someone we can investigate.” Alch-deer maintained his position.

“Are you saying I’m not strong enough?” Ten-realm added more pressure.

Alch-deer nearly lost his footing. The disparity was too great; the opponent could kill him in the blink of an eye.

However, he straightened his spine and met Ten-realm’s gaze: “Ancestor, it is up to you whether believe us or not. Just like how we are insects unable to gaze into the progenitor’s truths.”

“There is no immortal after the progenitor.” Goldclad and Lostmetal thought Alch-deer was exaggerating.

“You still don’t recognize your folly. I have asked my ancestor and searched the past, such an ancestor does not exist.” Ten-realm said.

“Believing and giving the plants are your choice. We are only messengers.” Alch-deer waved his hand.

“Since you’re here, send a message for me then.” Ten-realm said: “Tell this so-called ancestor to leave Desolate Frontier before it’s too late. If he continues to cause trouble here, it will not go unpunished.”

“Ancestor, you are being disrespectful.” Huntblade said seriously.

“Disrespectful? Then do you have any evidence proving this ancestor’s identity? If not, then change your stance already.” Ten-realm said.

The two messengers firmly believed in Li Qiye’s identity. Therefore, this was unacceptable.

“Ancestor, you are committing a heinous crime by disobeying.” Alch-deer said.

“Alch-deer, you are so courageous now but if you insist on going down the wrong path, not even Crimson Virtue can protect you.” Ten-realm said.

“You are out of line, Ancestor.” Huntblade barked back.

“Go send the message to your ancestor now. Do not make me pursue this any further.” Ten-realm declared.

“No need, I prefer not delivering such an unfilial message. Please conduct yourself differently, Ancestor.” Alch-deer refused.
