Chapter 1083: The Secret Of Essence Gathering Pill (I)
Li Ximing broke through the great void above Zhijing Mountain, descended, and sent someone to summon Li Zhouwei. He took a seat at the table, while Cui Jueyin did not dare sit and instead stood respectfully at his side.
He asked Cui Jueyin about matters concerning the outer-sea. After only a few exchanges, while Cui Jueyin was answering respectfully, he noticed someone coming up from the mountain below.
The newcomer was tall and well-built, strong yet not excessively burly. At a glance, he seemed difficult to provoke, though nothing about him appeared unusual, except for his golden eyes, which struck fear in all who looked into them.
But when Cui Jueyin saw those golden eyes, his mind became muddled for the first time, "An imperial descendant? The Moongaze Li Family carries the orthodox bloodline!"
The Cui Family might mistake other lineages, but the blood of Wei's Li Family could never be mistaken. The man before him might not match the late Crown Prince Li Xunquan, yet he stood on par with Li Xuan, the leader of the restoration.
Overwhelmed, Cui Jueyin dropped to his knees and respectfully declared, "I pay my respects, your highness!"
Li Zhouwei seemed to be in a good mood. Though he did not recognize the man, he lifted his chin slightly and gave a brief acknowledgment, his gaze filled with curiosity.
Li Ximing smiled and explained, "Minghuang, this man is a Cui Family direct descendant."
Li Zhouwei understood immediately and replied with a nod, "So it is a member of the Cui Family. There is no need for such formality."
Cui Jueyin respectfully withdrew to the side. Another man then appeared from behind Li Zhouwei. He was massive in stature, broad-shouldered and barrel-waisted, with two golden hammers in his hands.
