Chapter 5987: No Point In Flattery
“That is why future descendants excavated Silver Dragon Mecha, someone left it here along with a method for life gestation and experimentation.” Li Qiye said while gazing at the lotus.
“What was the goal?” Untethered asked.
“That depends on his ambition. A low goal is to create a way to create his own life, a more lofty goal is true life creation.” Li Qiye said.
“Life creation. Young Noble, you once said that this is only the high heaven’s business?” Untethered said softly.
“Very ambitious indeed, hence the lotus before you. Well, this is only a remnant piece.” Li Qiye said.
“From what we gathered, this lotus is a window into eternal life.” Longevity said.
“Easier said than done regarding true eternal life, this lotus is not enough for that.” Li Qiye shook his head.
“We found a boundless life force within the flower, it looks like the beginning of the world.” Untethered said.
“Yes, it is epoch power, a nascent force. The three girls managed to plant the remnant seed and cultivate it to this level.” Li Qiye said.
“Only the three of them could stabilize it. There was one close call when it nearly destroyed Longevity Valley.” Longevity said.
“Because they planted it, it viewed them as mothers and kept them around. Therefore, it is up to them to control this power in the future.” He said.
“We had the same thought.” Longevity nodded and said: “The girls didn’t have enough power and life force to keep it up, so we started helping them. We didn’t expect them to be dragged inside and we became stuck as well.”
“You all wouldn’t have been able to endure without the alchemy liquid from your sect.” Li Qiye said.
“Yes, they were filial.” Longevity said sentimentally.
“It’s not easy growing this seed, it will drain all of you and still be far from maturity.” Li Qiye said.
“So there is no saving the girls?” Untethered shuddered.
“Well, the young noble is right here. You can’t just watch us die and not do anything, right?” Longevity winked at him.
“You tell me.” He said.
“Save us, Young Noble.” She wouldn’t let go of his hand.
“It’s not that I can’t remove you two and the girls.” He said.

“Would that make the lotus wither?” Untethered asked.
“It’s just a matter of time. I can just kill it before a rampage.” Li Qiye nodded.
“Young Noble, please don’t.” Longevity became alarmed and shook her head: “If you kill it, the girls’ effort would be in vain.”
“What do you suggest?” Li Qiye said.
“I’m sure you have a different option, now that you’re an immortal.” Longevity said.
“No point in flattering me.” Li Qiye stared at her.
“It’s just that the girls really spent all of their time and effort on this lotus, they might go as far as throwing away their lives for it.” Longevity sighed.
“Well, they could wait until it blooms but this might take an unreasonable amount of time. If they can make it until then, they might be able to fuse this power and life force.” He said.
“Please, Young Noble.” Longevity bowed.
“I suppose since fate has brought us together again. I will leave them here while separating you two.” Li Qiye said.
Longevity paused for a moment before staring at the lotus. After a short silence, she sighed and said: “I wish to stay, Young Noble.”
“Stay?” He repeated.
“I can’t abandon them when they had asked me for help.” Longevity said: “And it’s been so long that the outside world is foreign to me, I can let go and be trapped here instead with them.”
She bowed and earnestly told Untethered: “Big Sis, thank you for accompanying me all this time, now you can go outside with the young noble and see the sun again.”
Untethered stared at her before telling Li Qiye: “I will stay as well.”
“Big Sis, you can leave while the young noble is here. It won’t be the same case in the future.” Longevity disagreed.
“As you said, the outside world no longer has anything to do with us, so why does it matter if I stay here or leave?” Untethered sighed.
“I see, then we can stay together then.” Longevity smiled beautifully.
“Sorry for troubling you, Young Noble.” Untethered bowed.
“Very well, stay if that is your wish. I will seal it properly and if you can wait until it matures, you will be free.” Li Qiye sighed.
“Thank you, it’s truly a shame that we can’t accompany you again in the future.” Longevity lamented.
“Thank you, Young Noble. I don’t think we will meet again.” Untethered took the initiative and hugged Li QIye tightly, resting her head on his shoulder for a long while.
By this point, the outside world was foreign to them. Li Qiye might be the only one with whom they still had a strong connection.
“Goodbye.” He gently rubbed her back.
When she let go, it was Longevity’s turn. She embraced him and said: “It was a great honor having met you, our immortal. I wish for you to always stand above the high heaven.”
Tears streamed down her cheeks as she bid farewell.
“I will.” He wiped her tears and nodded.
She took her time, wanting this moment to last forever. Alas, time was merciless.
“Goodbye, Young Noble.” Eventually, the two let him go and bowed. They knew they wouldn’t have a chance to see him again regardless of their progress in the future.
“Goodbye.” He nodded.
“Crack!” The two melted and joined the yin-yang flow and life force again.
“Go!” Li Qiye made his move, releasing primordial laws and turning them into dao runes.
They suppressed the entire platform. The scales appeared again in resistance but were quickly subdued. The runes fused into the platform and the lotus, emitting a primordial glow and banishing an unknown force.
