Chapter 5996: Are You Hidden Ancestor?

Big shots from the three dynasties were on the way. Weaker cultivators searched the ruins, hoping to find treasures while stronger ones had more ambitious plans.

“Boom!” A black island dispersed the clouds above.

“Sky Tree’s island is here.” Everyone became startled.

“The wealth here is enough to drive everyone crazy with greed.” Spectators saw figures descending from the island.

“We need to hurry, even Sky Tree is joining this.” Others didn’t want to fall behind.

“Ooo-” A horn blasted and summoned billowing fog. Images of a cemetery could be seen beyond.

Experts wearing strange, colorful robes walked out of the fog. They had a wild, untamed aura to them.

“Witch King Sect, they’ve traveled so far to get here.” Many took a deep breath.

“Who wouldn’t be tempted, there are treasures from time immemorial in there, even immortal items in the legends. The great dynasties are coming too.” Someone commented before moving onward, not wanting to miss out on potential gains.

Li Qiye was the only one who wasn’t in a hurry, only smiling at the anxious crowd.

He took his time gazing at the area - a magnificent landscape in the distance making up Splendor Terra.

“Young Noble, you are here too.” Someone appeared next to him.

He turned and saw a fat woman with numerous freckles and snacks in her hands - Minisun Grand Emperor.

She saw the ten loops on his arms and bowed deeply.

“How should I properly address you, Young Noble?” She looked respectful and slightly confused.

“Whatever you want.” He said.

“I do not dare to be presumptuous.” She smiled wyly and shook her head.

“Because of them?” He smiled.

“You know better than I do, Young Noble.” She confirmed he was a mortal but this couldn’t possibly be the case.

“I do not, I picked them up by chance.” He said.

“That doesn’t sound right...” She felt a bit vexed.

“What’s not right? Just pieces of metal that happen to get in my possession.” He said.

“Young Noble, that’s a disrespectful comment toward our Enigma Dynasty, but since you’re the bearer, you can do as you please.” The emperor said.

“It’s your business.” Li Qiye shrugged.

“Do you know their significance, Young Noble?” She couldn’t confirm Li Qiye’s identity since he was so different than the legend.

“You tell me.” He responded.

“Young Noble, they are of utmost importance to our dynasty, these Enigma Loops.” She hesitated briefly before telling the truth.

“So they’re your heirlooms.” He said.

“More than that, they represent the highest authority of our dynasty.” She told the truth.

“Highest authority?” Li Qiye said.

“You don’t know at all, Young Noble?” She was surprised.

“As I said, I merely found it. Its relation to your dynasty has nothing to do with me.” He shrugged.

“But... since you’re the bearer, I can tell you the truth. They only appear under specific circumstances.” She said.

“Go on.” He said.

“They appear each time after our dynasty’s destruction and with it, we shall be rebuilt.” She said softly.

Enigma had been destroyed numerous times before but it kept on popping up again as a leading dynasty of Sin.

“As long as they are around, our dynasty will never be extinguished.” She added.

“No dynasties last forever.” He shook his head.

“I wholeheartedly believe that they are the reason for our tenacity, Young Noble.” She insisted.

“Then they contain the secrets of your dynasty.” He said.

She took a deep breath and asked the question on her mind: “Young Noble, are you Hidden Ancestor?”

“I am not your Hidden Ancestor.” He shook his head.

“Then how did you come across these loops, Young Noble?” She bowed respectfully.

“I picked it up on the street.” He smiled.

“That can’t be possible, at least in theory.” She had an awkward smile.

“Then I killed your Hidden Ancestor?” He asked without changing his expression.

She stared at him for a bit before responding: “I wouldn’t know, I have never seen Hidden Ancestor before, the oldest and most mysterious of our dynasty.”
