Emperor’s Domination

“Why are you surprised?” Li Qiye asked.

“I’ve never heard of our progenitor having actual descendants.” Calamities said.

“You’re one.” Li Qiye said.

“…” He still doubted and said: “Boss, is it true?”

“Why do you think you’re still alive? Your cultivation and power can’t handle this many tribulations, not even at the overlord level.” Li Qiye responded.

“Hmm…” He had no response.

The tribulations tortured and made him want to die. However, they never obliterated him.

“Isn’t it because of this?” He patted the black stone.

“Heavenshroud Stone only locks the tribulations, not the reason you’re alive.” Li Qiye said.

“So I’m Progenitor Jiao Heng’s descendant?” He started to believe: “But I’ve never heard of the progenitor marrying and having children.”

“Couldn’t he have an illegitimate child? Or did you think he was single all that time?” Li Qiye said.

“…” He had no response.

Jiao Heng was a mysterious legend who created the largest business in Three Immortals. People didn’t know if he was a progenitor but this would make sense since he dealt with the strongest beings. How would he conduct business without being strong himself?

His most famous deed was selling Xian Baihui to a devil. Baihui somehow escaped later and chased him to the ends of the world.

The fact that he survived implied a powerful cultivation. Thus, such a man certainly encountered many beauties in his life. It wouldn’t be surprising for him to have illegitimate children.

“I became the successor because I was the most talented and accomplished, not because of my bloodline.” He murmured.

For many sects, the successors would normally be the most talented geniuses. This applied to Liu Sanqiang as well due to his business acumen.

Sure enough, Arrogance Enterprise became richer than before. Moreover, his cultivation grew at the same time, not inferior to Luminous Master or others.

However, he focused on business so he didn’t have the same fame. Nevertheless, the sheer materials and resources of Arrogance Enterprise gave him an unmatched advantage.

As he became stronger, he became more interested in reaching the next realm. He thought about their legacy treasure and began researching more. This culminated in his wearing it.

In just a short time, he couldn’t get away from the black stone. It started growing and drilling into him. Nevertheless, the tribulations turned him into a supreme overlord before the stars of Supreme Heaven.

From then on, Liu Sanqiang was forgotten and replaced by Calamities.

“Do you know what this is?” Li Qiye asked.

“Tribulations from the high heaven.” He said.

“Why were they sealed here?” Li Qiye asked.

“Baited and then sealed by our progenitor?” He contemplated before answering.

“Have you ever heard of anyone baiting all types of tribulations, even those never seen before?” Li Qiye chuckled.

“Well…” He thought this was unprecedented. Even the three immortals couldn’t do so.

Everyone had their own tribulation and couldn’t just summon other types. Emperors, primal ancestors, and overlords faced something different and proportional.

“Then do you know why your progenitor sold Baihui to the devil?” Li Qiye asked.

“I do not.” Although this was a famous tale of their progenitor, it wasn’t quite flattering because Baihui was his best friend.

Therefore, selling a friend was immoral and dishonorable.

“Don’t worry, it’s nothing despicable. Baihui cooperated willingly.” Li Qiye said.

“Oh?” He didn’t expect this answer: “But why?”

“For this.” Li Qiye patted the black stone.

“You called it Heavenshroud? So Baihui worked together with my progenitor for this?” He looked down and murmured.

“Baihui was a true friend, willing to risk his life to help out.” Li Qiye nodded.

“So the progenitor obtained the stone, but where did the tribulations come from?” He asked.

“That’s a good question.” Li Qiye smiled and said: “He had them all along.”
