Li Xiandao didn’t worry that he had imprisoned someone who came from the Celestial World.
On the contrary, he knew that there were many people in the Celestial World that thought a lot about the Nine Skies and Ten Lands. They wanted to get Celestial Gate’s key.
After fiddling around with the Celestial Gate key, Li Xiandao kept the Purple Crystal Sword into his body and nurtured it in his own consciousness. Great Ancient Fallen Star was placed in his dantian and they didn’t affect one another.
“There will probably be many Celestials who come down so as to get this.” Seven said.
Li Xiandao spun the key around and said, “The Celestial Gate will be opened but definitely not now.”
Seven agreed with Li Xiandao’s words.
The Celestial Gate was closed and it would be tough for people from Nine Skies and Ten Lands to fly up.
Since the Celestial Gate was closed, there were few who ascended. All of them were people who suppressed the whole generation.
But even so, many would fail and die…
The Celestial Gate was closed and the path upwards became narrow. Li Xiandao had to unlock it.
The current Nine Skies and Ten Lands couldn’t be compared to the Celestial World. To close the Celestial Gate forever would mean wiping out the last bit of hope for Nine Skies and Ten Lands.
When Old Man Tianchi and the others closed the Celestial Gate, it was because the Celestial World were bullies and were ripping the Nine Skies and Ten Lands off. So they broke the connection between Celestial World and the Nine Skies and Ten Lands.
Since they were unable to deal with Celestial World, they didn’t contact them and they just developed on their own.
They had no choice but to do that.
Li Xiandao looked at the key and said solemnly, “Unfortunately, I am not Old Man Tianchi.”
Old Man Tianchi was strong but his strength was only relative to Nine Skies and Ten Lands. He wasn’t strong in the Celestial World and wasn’t able to change how they treated the Nine Skies and Ten Lands.
But Li Xiandao would definitely head up to Celestial World. So all of these things weren’t his problem.
Since he could open the Celestial Gate, he could ensure that people from above couldn’t head down and interfere in Nine Skies and Ten Lands matters.
Li Xiandao firmly looked at the key.
At this time, Seven smiled and said happily, “There is a guest.”
Li Xiandao kept the key and asked, “What is the guest’s background?”
“It’s someone you are really familiar with.” Seven’s eyes lit up.
Li Xiandao shook his head and didn’t believe Seven, “I’ve just come to Human Celestial for a few days and I don’t even know a single person. Changsen Men was my first guest and his body was stolen. Who else could I possibly know?”
“Are you sure?”Seven gave him a smile that didn’t look like a smile.
“I am sure.” Li Xiandao nodded his head confidently.
“Then, let me ask you. When you took over the Bank of the Universe, do you still remember the first few guests you met?” Seven asked.
Li Xiandao smiled, “So few years have passed, so of course, I remember.”
“Tell me about them.” Seven was going to test him.
“The first guest is the Li Family old ancestor.” Li Xiandao remembered very clearly.
“The second guest is Lady Ah Qing.” Li Xiandao couldn’t forget about this at all. She failed to break through and trade for 100 years of lifespan.
A few years have passed only, so how would Li Xiandao forget about that?
Wait…
Li Xiandao was shocked as he looked at Seven. He said slowly, “Are you talking about Lady Ah Qing?”
Lady Ah Qing who had reached the realm required to ascend 3,000 years ago.
The Lady Ah Qing who swore that she would wipe out the experts.
The one who said she wanted Celestial World to know that the Nine Skies and Ten Lands was strong.
After that deal was done, she appeared once and helped Li Xiandao.
One could say that when Li Xiandao was at his weakest, Lady Ah Qing helped him once. Until now, Li Xiandao remembered that in his heart.
If it was really Lady Ah Qing, then it was indeed someone he was familiar with.
Those acquaintances in the past were fake. Only Lady Ah Qing was genuine.
Li Xiandao looked at Seven in hope.
Seven also knew that Ah Qing had helped Li Xiandao, so she knew that Li Xiandao was a little emotional.
She wasn’t angry or jealous. Instead, she was actually excited. They were happy together and both smiled.
“I said that it was an acquaintance. But unfortunately, it isn’t Ah Qing herself.” Seven shook her head regretfully.
Li Xiandao was stunned, “It isn’t her herself?”
“What do you mean?” Li Xiandao asked curiously.
“The guest is her disciple.” Seven said.
“Ah Qing took in a disciple.” Li Xiandao calmed down and collected his thoughts, “Please enter, I will welcome him.”
Seven nodded. She would personally receive the guest.
Li Xiandao went to take a bath and change. His white clothing was like snow. His expression was cold and he looked at the mask. He thought about it and decided to put it down again.
When he was weak, he had to wear the mask so as to not cause trouble.
Li Xiandao didn’t care anymore. He didn’t bother about wearing masks anymore.
He walked into the Trading Hall. Li Xiandao didn’t sit down and just stood with his arms behind his back. He stood in the center of the hall.
Very few people could affect his mood and Lady Ah Qing was one of them.
Li Xiandao didn’t love her but he was just shocked and worshipped her.
To this day, Li Xiandao remembered when he had no cultivation at all, he heard that Ah Qing was someone who failed her tribulation and she actually wanted to fly up to the Celestial World…
At that time, Li Xiandao’s worship of Ah Qing was etched deep in his heart.
Until now, Ah Qing’s cultivation was still higher than Li Xiandao’s.
Li Xiandao’s cultivation rose up like a rocket but he still fell behind her.
This was the reason he worshipped and respected her.,
Lady Ah Qing really shocked Li Xiandao’s weak heart. Until now, that shock hadn’t lessened at all.
So Li Xiandao looked forwards to meeting Lady Ah Qing’s disciple.
In just a moment, Seven brought a little boy in.
He was just five or six and was really thin. His skin was a little black. Only his eyes were shining bright, making him stand out from others.
He walked in front of Li Xiandao with his fist clenched. He was really nervous but he tried to calm himself down, “Are you the Master of the Bank of the Universe?”
Li Xiandao asked curiously, “You know me?”
“My Master talked about you before.” After Li Xiandao admitted it, the boy heaved a sigh of relief and knew that he had found the right person.
“Who is your Master?” Li Xiandao’s eyes shone bright and he asked.
“My Master is Ah Qing. My Master said that the Master of the bank should know her name.” The boy said.
“I know, then what is your name?” Li Xiandao nodded and asked.
“Jin Jiu is my name. It’s the name Master gave me.” Jin Jiu replied. Hope flashed in his eyes as he stared at Li Xiandao without blinking.
“When did your Master accept you?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Two months ago when she came to Heaven Sky. It was fate that she took me in. I am her first and last disciple. This was what she said.” Jin Jiu said proudly.
