Dominator Emperor

"That’s enough. Please leave," Chi Xiaodie snapped, her expression darkening.

Sima Longyun trembled with anger. His beloved had been stolen from him. He leaped to his feet, pointed at Li Qiye, and roared, "You little bastard, get the hell out here! Today, we’ll see who is worthy of Xiaodie. We’ll fight to the death! Only the one who lives will have the right to marry Xiaodie!"

"You want a fight? He doesn’t need to lift a finger!" Chi Xiaodie flew into a rage and shot to her feet. "I’ll be your opponent," she said coldly.

"You little bastard, what kind of man hides behind a woman!" Sima Longyun was so angry he could have spat blood. He pointed at Li Qiye and screamed.

Chi Xiaodie was about to step forward, but Li Qiye stopped her. He rose slowly to his feet. "Are you going to walk out on your own, or do I have to throw you out?"

"MOOO—" In that instant, a bovine roar echoed. Golden light shot to the sky from Sima Longyun’s body as if he had been possessed by a divine ox. A torrent of Blood Qi surged from him like a bursting dam.

"Little bastard, take this!" Sima Longyun roared furiously. He strode through the air, his Golden Bull Body manifesting. His fist shot out with the force to topple mountains and part seas, accompanied by an endless rumbling.

"Get lost." Li Qiye’s eyes narrowed. His physique erupted with power, his Blood Qi suppressed the very prisons of hell. He swung one hand in a chop that seemed to cleave the heavens, bringing it down heavily upon Sima Longyun’s incoming attack.

BANG—

There was no suspense in a clash between the Prison Suppressing Divine Body and the Golden Bull Body. One was an Immortal Body, the other an Innate Body; the difference between them was as vast as heaven and earth. Sima Longyun was instantly sent flying by Li Qiye, smashing through a wall. He was thrown far, far away!

"Junior—!" The Elder’s face fell when he saw his disciple sent flying by a single blow from Li Qiye. He roared furiously.

Li Qiye didn’t even bother to glance at him, calmly stating, "Today, out of respect for Emperor Chi and for the fact that you are guests, I won’t kill anyone. But if you dare provoke me again, I’ll smash him to pieces!" With that, he turned and left.

Chi Xiaodie followed him silently. The Lion Roar Emperor sighed softly and said to the Elder, "Elder, the young have their own world now. I cannot make the decision in this matter. This Chi is grateful for the high esteem from you and the Nu Xian Sacred Country, but please, Elder, return home."

The Elder’s expression was utterly hideous. In the end, he stomped his foot, took the betrothal gifts and the injured Sima Longyun, and departed. He had thought that by personally coming to propose the marriage, with the backing of the Nu Xian Sacred Country’s Saint Emperor and the support of the Elders, it would be impossible for the Lion Roar Sect to refuse. Yet, not only had the Lion Roar Sect rejected the marriage, but they had also been humiliated by Li Qiye. This made him tremble with rage. They would absolutely get revenge for this shame.

Li Qiye did not immediately return to the Celestial Dao Academy. This time, Chi Xiaodao had also come, and upon hearing of Li Qiye’s arrival, he immediately went to see him.

"It looks like you’ve won the beauty’s heart." Li Qiye couldn’t help but smile upon seeing Chi Xiaodao’s jubilant expression. Although Chi Xiaodao was a cheerful and talkative person, he had always been somewhat downcast before. Now, it was completely different. He was full of vigor and his eyes shone brightly; one look was enough to tell he was a man in love.

Teased by Li Qiye, Chi Xiaodao was a little embarrassed. He gave a dry laugh and said, "To be honest with you, Brother Li, I’d love to win her heart. It’s just that getting past the Bao Yun Family is difficult. The Tiger Roar Sect is pressing them hard right now. Even though Xiao Yun is unwilling, the Bao Yun Family is quite happy to form a marriage alliance with the Tiger Roar Sect."

He had nothing to hide from Li Qiye; after all, Li Qiye had been the one to strongly support his pursuit of Princess Bao Yun.

"What’s so difficult? If you like her, just bring her back. If the Bao Yun Family disagrees, then go snatch the bride! Just carry her back here!" Li Qiye said nonchalantly.

Chi Xiaodao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He wasn’t as domineering as Li Qiye. He said with a dry laugh, "I’d like to, but I’d still prefer to do things by the book. It would be even better if I could get the Bao Yun Family’s approval so Xiao Yun can marry me happily. That way, everyone would be happy."

"Since your grandfather is out of seclusion, have him go propose the marriage for you! As long as Princess Bao Yun is willing to be with you, everything will be easy to handle. If the Bao Yun Family thinks your Lion Roar Sect isn’t prestigious enough, that’s not a problem. I’ll find some major figures to back you up another day and completely overshadow the Tiger Roar Sect! Then the Bao Yun Family will marry their princess to you willingly!" Li Qiye said with a laugh. He quite admired Chi Xiaodao and strongly supported his marriage. As long as Princess Bao Yun was willing to marry Chi Xiaodao, everything would be simple.

"Thank you, Brother Li." Chi Xiaodao bowed quickly and said with a smile, "I will definitely go and propose. No matter how the Bao Yun Family makes things difficult, I will do my best to satisfy them. That way, Xiao Yun will be happy, and with her family’s support, she will have no regrets marrying me."

"A good way of thinking." Li Qiye smiled. With a touch of concern, he said, "After you win the beauty’s heart, focus on your Cultivation. You’ve already succeeded in changing your fate, so don’t waste your talent."

"Don’t worry, Brother Li. I will absolutely not disappoint you." Chi Xiaodao was deeply grateful. From the moment he met Li Qiye, Li Qiye had always supported him, even changing his destiny. To him, this was a debt of immense gratitude.

"I’ll be staying for a few days until your grandfather comes out. If you have any questions about your Cultivation, you can come and ask me anytime," Li Qiye finally instructed Chi Xiaodao, then turned and left.

After Li Qiye left, Chi Xiaodie didn’t leave right away. She wanted to talk with her younger brother.

"Sis, how are things progressing between you two?" After Li Qiye left, Chi Xiaodao winked at his older sister and said with a grin.

Chi Xiaodie said peevishly, "What progress? Don’t spout nonsense. It wouldn’t be good to damage his reputation!"

"Oh my. As the saying goes, ’a married daughter’s elbow always bends outwards.’ It’s really true. Sis, you aren’t even married yet and you’re already taking Brother Li’s side. What will happen once you are? Hehe, Sis, this isn’t like you at all. My sister used to be such a proud person," Chi Xiaodao said with a grin.

"Stop your nonsense!" Chi Xiaodie, both embarrassed and angry, glared at him. "There’s nothing of the sort."

Chi Xiaodao wasn’t bothered at all. He grinned and said, "Sis, I’m rooting for you. Hehe, you can definitely do it. Your little brother is waiting to drink at your wedding feast."

Faced with Chi Xiaodao’s teasing, Chi Xiaodie fell silent for a moment and sighed softly in her heart.

Chi Xiaodao quickly asked, "Sis, what’s wrong? Tell me what’s on your mind. Maybe I can help you with your worries."

"It’s nothing." Chi Xiaodie shook her head, but despite her words, her heart still felt wistful.

"Is it because of Brother Li?" Chi Xiaodao asked with concern. The siblings had a very good relationship, having grown up together. As her younger brother, he naturally hoped his sister would find a good match.

Chi Xiaodie fell silent. Chi Xiaodao quickly asked, "Don’t tell me Brother Li doesn’t like you, Sis?"

"How would I know?" After a long moment, Chi Xiaodie sighed softly and finally said quietly, "Even for the Young Palace Master of the Bingyu Palace, he only wants to take her as a handmaiden."

When Li Qiye had said those words to Bing Yuxia, she knew he wasn’t joking; Li Qiye was serious. Bing Yuxia... how utterly peerless she was. Whether in terms of looks or talent, it was hard to find any fault. If one really had to find a flaw, it would probably be her fondness for dressing as a man. And yet, Li Qiye only wanted to take her as a handmaiden.

Chi Xiaodao also fell silent for a moment. He had also heard Li Qiye say such things. Anyone else would have been considered insane, arrogant, and ignorant. However, Chi Xiaodao realized that Li Qiye wasn’t joking, nor was he being arrogant or ignorant. One could even say that to Li Qiye, even a Heavenly Pride Girl like Bing Yuxia—peerless and beautiful enough to topple nations—was completely dispensable.

’If even a Heavenly Pride Girl like Bing Yuxia means so little to Li Qiye, then what about my sister? She can’t compare to Bing Yuxia in background, beauty, or talent.’

"So what are your plans, Sis?" Chi Xiaodao finally asked.

Chi Xiaodie raised her head and gazed far into the distance. She took a deep breath and finally said softly, "I want to stay by his side!" As she said this, her face couldn’t help but burn. But she secretly clenched her small fists, silently cheering herself on.

For her, official status wasn’t important. As long as she could stay by his side, she would be content.

Chi Xiaodao sighed softly in his heart. He knew his sister had fallen for him. Before, his sister had been proud and arrogant, even believing Li Qiye to be a fraud. But in the end, she couldn’t resist Li Qiye’s mysterious and unfathomable charm—that of a man who looked down on the world with disdain. She had fallen head over heels.

If anyone else heard this, they would find it absolutely unbelievable. Chi Xiaodie might not have been a top-tier Heavenly Pride Girl, but she was still the Golden Branches and Jade Leaves of the Lion Roar Country, a captivating beauty. Countless young prodigies wanted to marry her, yet now, all she wanted was to stay by a young man’s side.

"Sis, I believe you can do it," Chi Xiaodao cheered his sister on.

A smile blossomed on Chi Xiaodie’s face. "You should marry Princess Bao Yun soon, too. Then you can focus on your Cultivation. I hope our generation can reclaim the glory of our ancestors and live up to their prestigious names."

The more Chi Xiaodie learned about her ancestors, the more pride she took in them. Whether it was the ancestor Hundred Battles Divine Emperor or her maternal grandfather, the Overlord Immortal Lion King, both were world-shaking figures. As a descendant of the Chi Family, she also hoped to one day reclaim her ancestors’ glory and carry forward their legacy.

"I’ll definitely work hard, Sis," Chi Xiaodao said, encouraging himself as well.
