Chapter 1623: Chapter 722: The Beast Ancestor’s Prying

Thinking of Lin Xuankong, the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing’s mind couldn’t help but conjure his image, causing her to be momentarily lost in thought.

After a few seconds,

She finally gathered her heart spirit, looked towards the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin who had been waiting for her reply, and spoke:

"I definitely will not demand that Clan Leader Qiu Jin immediately give up the Beast Race’s hatred towards the Human Race!

But in that Star River battle between the Human Race and the Beast Race, the number of fallen human cultivators was not much less than that of the Beast Race. Even the strongest human of that time had his path damaged by the battle, resulting in no progress in cultivation afterwards, eventually dying filled with grief!

Even to this day,

Every clan or cultivation organization that has continued from then until now,

has records in their clan tomes or sect tomes of that earth-shattering battle that haunted countless hearts!

Numerous Beast Race cultivators cannot forget the impact that battle had, and countless Human Race cultivators dare not forget the rivers of blood it brought!"

Saying this, the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing paused for a moment, and with a hint of sentiment, cupped her hands towards the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin:

"But regardless,

If Clan Leader Qiu Jin keeps his promise,

A peace of three thousand years between the Human Race and Beast Race would ultimately be a magnificent affair!

Mo Liqing has some matters to attend to now, so I won’t escort Clan Leader Qiu Jin off!"

Avoid persuading others about things you have not suffered; the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing did not say words that would make Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin set aside hatred.... Such matters, such blood feuds of this magnitude, cannot be dispelled with mere words!

Moreover, the Ghost Race of the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing had similar experiences with the Beast Race back then, with hatred towards that Nine Nether Seventh enduring thousands of years. Having such history, the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing was even less inclined to counsel the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin!

Because when the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing was determined to completely seal the Nine Nether Seventh back then, if anyone dared say anything about setting aside the Ghost’s blood feud, it is likely this Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing would pulverize them on the spot!

Upon hearing the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing say this, the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin remained silent for a moment, then raised his head:

"The promise of three thousand years of peace, since it’s been said, would certainly not be violated; our Beast Race cultivators have been renowned for keeping promises since ancient times, so the Northern Celestial Emperor can be utterly assured!

But now, I, Qiu Jin, will not be leaving...." ℯℯ𝑙.

Qiu Jin is still unwilling to leave, not prepared to withdraw?

Upon hearing the Beast Race Ancestral say this, many cultivators from the Six Paths Celestial Court’s Middle Celestial Palace and the Northern Celestial Palace present changed their expressions.

Standing behind the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing, the Female Celestial General Demon Sword couldn’t help but speak up: "Beast Race Ancestral, having conceded defeat to our Great Emperor, you stated that you would lead the retreat of the Beast Race strongmen, avoiding re-invasion for three thousand years. How can you immediately violate this promise? Do you truly think our Great Emperor won’t kill you?"

The other two Female Celestial Generals also had their expressions change continually, looking at the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin with some anger.

Only the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing seemed to realize something, her eyes glinted as she looked at the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin, and spoke: "Does Clan Leader Qiu Jin mean...."

"Celestial Destiny Fruit!"

The Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin spoke:

"Challenging numerous strongmen of the Human Race and reclaiming certain Star Domains that once belonged to us Beast Race is certainly a goal of every Beast Race cultivator!

Yet today, within this Celestial Fish Constellation, neither I nor my subordinates came with intentions of doing so, nor planned to immediately engage in battle with the Human Race...

This time, leading my numerous subordinates traversing countless miles, my primary goal is the fruits born of the Celestial Destiny Fruit Tree atop this Black Sea Star!"

Saying this, seemingly worried about rousing the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing’s anger, he hastened his speech, rapidly continuing: "I only promised, after losing to the Northern Celestial Emperor, the Beast Race strongmen would definitely not challenge the Human Race within three thousand years! But I, Qiu Jin, never stated I would abandon these precious Celestial Destiny Fruits!

Treasure belongs to those capable of possessing it, the Northern Celestial Emperor should understand this principle!

Furthermore, this Celestial Destiny Fruit Tree atop Black Sea Star is an ownerless tree in ownerless land, and all Celestial Destiny Fruits born upon it are ownerless fruits!

I, Qiu Jin, admit I haven’t devised a counter against the Northern Celestial Emperor’s Purple-Blue Rainbow Sword’s wondrous power, yet I absolutely must visit this Celestial Destiny Fruit Tree on Black Sea Star!"

Celestial Destiny Fruit!

So the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin, bringing numerous Beast Race strongmen, truly did not come to entirely initiate a battle; the target was indeed the Celestial Destiny Fruits borne on the Celestial Destiny Fruit Tree!

Furrowing her brows as she regarded the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin, the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing spoke: "Clan Leader Qiu Jin, given you can’t withstand my Mo Liqing’s Purple-Blue Rainbow Sword’s immense power, merely two strikes have left you powerless to retaliate! Do you believe today you have any chance to seize the Celestial Destiny Fruits from my hands?"

Saying this, the Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing had already activated her Purple-Blue Rainbow Sword, looking at the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin with an unfriendly expression!

The Celestial Destiny Fruit is an extremely important and precious material for both Northern Celestial Emperor Mo Liqing and Lin Xuankong; Mo Liqing could not possibly allow the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin to snatch them!

Seeing Mo Liqing raise the Purple-Blue Rainbow Sword, the Beast Race Ancestral Qiu Jin’s expression subtly shifted, yet he didn’t speak, clearly determined that he must find a way to obtain some Celestial Destiny Fruits at all costs!
