Hearing Li Ming's explanation.
Mu Chiyao thought about it and realized she had indeed acted too impulsively. Calming herself down and reflecting on Li Ming's actions, she explained:
“My father is the Azure Heaven God King. I am his youngest child. I was sealed in the Nine Netherworld Coffin by the elders of the clan and only woke up ten years ago.”
"As for you, what is your name, and why did you receive the Azure Emperor's inheritance?"
At this moment, her gaze toward Li Ming held a hint of hesitation and wavering.
For some reason, she inexplicably felt that Li Ming had a terrifying yet approachable aura.
She wanted to take action directly, capture Li Ming, and make him confess everything, but she couldn't see through the strength of the person in front of her at all.
If she uses her trump card, she is confident she can defeat the opponent, but it will be very damaging to her.
Seeing that Mu Chiyao seemed to have become more agreeable, Li Ming said unhurriedly:
"You may have heard of my name, Huang. As for why I received the inheritance of the Azure Emperor, I can only say that I was chosen by the Azure Emperor by chance. You don't need to be wary of me. Since I have received the inheritance of the Azure Emperor and the guidance of the Azure Heaven God King, I will naturally not make a move against you."
"On the contrary, if you need help, I can do my best to help you. I know that the descendants of the Azure Emperor are tainted by a curse, although I don't know how you got rid of it."
He wasn't lying. His name is Li Ming, but it's also Huang. There's nothing wrong with that, right?
He was also somewhat curious about the bloodline curse.
"You're that Ara, really?"
Upon hearing Li Ming reveal his identity, Mu Chiyao's clear eyes widened in shock.
This person is ranked number one on the gold list, which means that their talent and aptitude far surpass hers, and their future achievements are limitless.
If it really is him, he might actually be a descendant of the Azure Emperor Ancestor.
“I have no reason to lie to you. Pretending to be the successor of the Great Emperor would not benefit me at all. Since I have received the inheritance of the Azure Emperor and the favor of the God King, I will naturally make a name for myself and bear the consequences.”
Li Ming smiled slightly.
His tone was full of confidence.
The biggest benefit that the Azure Emperor's inheritance brought him was that he had a trump card, so he could be a little more reckless.
There's no need to always play dumb and be overly cautious.
But it is by no means his greatest asset.
When Mu Chiyao heard Li Ming's words and learned that he knew about the curse, she was not surprised.
After all, the fact that the descendants of the Azure Emperor were cursed by a terrifying demon was not a secret within those major sects.
Even her identity was known to some important figures in the holy land.
After thinking for a moment, Mu Chiyao offered a brief explanation:
"This curse is not insurmountable; it can be suppressed. Without cultivation, one may not live past thirty, but after breaking through to the Martial God realm, one will have at least a thousand years of lifespan."
Are even martial gods only able to live for a thousand years?
However, if one awakens the Azure Emperor's bloodline, their cultivation speed will definitely be much easier than that of ordinary people.
Mu Qubing's lineage probably suffered the worst fate.
It is estimated that there are still many descendants of the Azure Emperor alive today, and they may even be a force of considerable strength.
After all, although he possesses the Emperor Weapon, he must also have some inherited cultivation techniques, secret realm resources, and divine weapons and treasures. It shouldn't be difficult for him to cultivate several Martial Gods.
"I see."
Li Ming took a deep breath, feeling a strong sense of dread about the curse.
It's likely that Mu Qubing was able to have the curse removed because his bloodline was too thin and he hadn't embarked on the path of cultivation, thus the curse's power was extremely weak.
It's just unknown what method this woman used to suppress her curse; her deep purple bloodline makes her appear no different from a normal person.
However, he naturally wouldn't be so impolite as to pry into everything after only meeting once.
Having learned the basic situation, Li Ming stopped talking nonsense and instead looked around the medicinal field before speaking:
"The God-King summoned me to inherit his legacy, but since you are his daughter, I can't take it all. I'll give you half of the legacy."
Li Ming's tone carried an air of non-negotiability.
His heart was bleeding as he said those words.
Although he had a will, it was impossible for him to just take everything since the other party's relatives had come to him.
"You...you are truly shameless!"
"This is something my father left me!"
Seeing that the other party was making an exorbitant demand, wanting to take half of it all at once, and in such a tone, Mu Chiyao felt even more resentful.
who is she?
The God King's legitimate daughter!
Ten thousand years ago, when she was born, there were unusual celestial phenomena, and it was even revealed that she possessed an innate divine body. She was hailed as someone who could inherit the mantle of the God-King, and her future was limitless.
If it weren't for the great calamity that befell her and the fall of the Azure Emperor, she would probably have become a martial god by now, or even ascended the throne as an empress.
"Shameless?"
"If I were shameless, I would have taken it all by myself long ago. That's enough!"
"The location of the treasure vault was told to me personally by the God-King back then."
“Miss Mu, I have already shown you great mercy.”
Li Ming looked at the other woman with a slightly disdainful gaze, even though the woman in front of him was very beautiful.
But he has seen his fair share of beautiful women and is certainly not some simp.
Just because you're good-looking doesn't mean you have to give in unconditionally.
He was already feeling the pinch even if he had to give up half; it was already the biggest concession he could make.
Back then, the God-King himself told him to take the treasure from the treasury.
It would be perfectly reasonable for him to take it all!
Of course, he genuinely didn't want to fight to the death with the other party.
It's not just about the other party's identity.
Furthermore, because of the opponent's strength, he vaguely sensed that the opponent's trump card was extremely terrifying, and that they were hiding a big secret.
This may be related to the fact that the other party is not affected by the curse.
"you……"
For a moment, Mu Chiyao didn't know how to refute.
She was exceptionally talented and of noble birth, yet no one had ever dared to speak to her like that, nor did they know how to argue or negotiate.
Moreover, as the successor of the Azure Emperor, Li Ming's status is arguably no lower than hers.
The fact that the other party was able to come here most likely means that she really did receive guidance from her father.
So, she really did get the better deal.
At this moment, Mu Chiyao frowned, making people feel sorry for her.
He saw that the naive saintess was intimidated by him.
As Li Ming spoke, he took out a jade box and began picking:
"Ahem, I won't take advantage of you with these precious herbs. We'll each take four of the Ten-Thousand-Year Herb King. As for these thousand-year-old spiritual herbs, I'll take one-third, and the rest is yours. But I'll take this soil with me."
In a few words, Li Ming, ignoring the other party's reaction, finished distributing the items.
Then he led Mu Chiyao deeper into the cave.
Along the way.
Numerous divine weapons and magical treasures were neatly arranged on the weapon rack.
Some medicine bottles are also kept on the medicine shelf.
In addition, some magnificent boxes were filled with all sorts of strange and wonderful treasures, including divine jade and spiritual marrow...
In the outside world, it would be an invaluable treasure, very difficult to buy with Yuan Crystals.
Any one of these items, if thrown out casually, would be enough to attract a fierce battle among the celestial beings, and might even alarm a martial god.
After all, these are some good things that the God-King personally selected and left behind.
Ordinary items don't really deserve to be stored here.
