Chapter 2508 - The Promise of an Eternal Throne
Inside the hall, everything was silent, save for Lu Qiu’s voice still echoing through the air.
Against all expectations, Heavenly Sovereign Wen’s decree didn’t include any conditions Su Yi had to fulfil.
Lu Qiu put away the golden talisman. “His Excellency the Heavenly Sovereign said that this is but a trivial greeting gift, and that when you proceed to the River of Destiny, he’ll arrange a gift far more generous.”
Everyone exchanged glances. All of them were astonished. All of these gifts are no more than an unconditional greeting gift? This Heavenly Sovereign Wen sure is generous!
Su Yi said calmly, “I made no contributions, so I cannot accept undue rewards. If these are trivial gifts not worth mentioning, your Limitless Palace should just hold onto them.”
Uproar followed this statement. It seemed no one had anticipated that Su Yi would refuse these gifts so directly.
After all, Heavenly Sovereign Wen had sent emissaries here just to deliver this generous greeting gift. It was immediately obvious how highly he valued Su Yi.
But it was also obvious that Su Yi didn’t care a bit!
Lu Qiu was obviously stunned. His brow furrowed. “You dare defy the Heavenly Sovereign’s decree?”
Defy.
It was just two syllables, but the implications were clear. This was a word a superior used to express anger at his inferior.
The experts of the Qilin Race were all inwardly uncomfortable. Lu Qiu is a mere disciple of the Limitless Palace, so why is he putting on such airs?
