Chapter 0779 – Heavenly Origin Records, Empyrean Chronicle

Facing the furious Li Lu, the defeated Li Tong appeared to shrink into a corner as he explained, "Li Luo has the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Art. He used the Heavenly Dragon Lightning Breath, a Nine Revolutions Art, against us. There was nothing we could do to defend ourselves."

"Enough excuses. You are the first division in the Dragon's Blood Lineage to lose to the Green Nether Banner in the past ten years," Li Lu chastised.

He was extremely embarrassed by this result. Just moments ago, he was boasting to Li Qingfeng and Li Hongli that the Dark Blood Banner could get their sweet revenge on Li Taixuan by starting with his son, but now? Li Tong had returned heralding a humiliating ending.

The Green Nether Banner had been frail for all these past years, unable to even select their own Banner Leader. No one would have ever imagined that the Dark Blood Banner would lose against them.

Li Qingfeng waved his hand and spoke up for him. "Forget it. A loss is a loss. It's just one battle among the banners after all. At least now we know that the son of Li Taixuan is indeed something... Mastering the Heavenly Dragon Lightning Breath in such a short span of time speaks volumes about him."

Search for the original.

Hearing this, Li Tong looked back at him with eyes filled with gratitude.

"Looks like the Nine Revolutions Art he got is the commonly seen Heavenly Dragon Lightning Breath. At least it's not one of the best ones among the thirteen," Li Hongli added with a hint of nonchalance on her charming face.

"You are too picky on the details. Whether it's common or not, the Heavenly Dragon Lightning Breath is still a Nine Revolutions Art. We should not underestimate its power," Li Qingfeng replied with a grin.

"Nonetheless, this performance from Li Luo should be his limit. As someone at the Lesser Fiend Palace Tier, he has already done very well to come this far. He might get to bask in the glory for a bit, but that is merely the firefly's glow compared to the dazzling moonlight radiating from Brother Qingfeng. None in this generation of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages will be able to steal your limelight," Li Hongli complimented with a sweet smile.

"Don't flatter me like that, Hongli. There are countless talents in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, and many brilliant ones among the Heavenly Emperor Bloodlines as well." Li Qingfeng smiled back.

"With your strength, Boss, you are definitely at least near the very top of the young generation in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. In the future, you will surely make a name for yourself on the Heavenly Origin Record's Empyrean Chronicle." Banner Leader Jin Ming of the Silver Blood Banner gratuitously added to the praises with a broad smile. Li Qingfeng's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing about the Empyrean Chronicle. The Heavenly Origin Records were created by the Golden Dragon Bank's Heavenly Origin Divine Continent headquarters. It comprised numerous things from the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, including its famous individuals, historical events, as well as several lists meant for ranking purposes. Amongst them all, there was a list that attracted everyone's attention: the Duke's Index.

There were multiple ranking lists in the Duke's Index, and the Empyrean Chronicle was one of them.

It recorded the names of the young talents that appeared in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent from time to time. While there was no ranking amongst those on the chronicle itself, one had to have outstanding and spectacular achievements to even find themselves on that prestigious list.

Most of the individuals on it were at the Heavenly Resonance Tier and generally older than Li Qingfeng. While the momentum surrounding his achievements resembled the younger days of the great Heavenly Emperor Li, he would still need to prove himself with significant actions to get on to the Empyrean Chronicle.

Like all the hot-blooded youths, such fame and vigor greatly attracted Li Qingfeng.

It might seem cliche, but his name would spread throughout the world if he managed to get on the Empyrean Chronicle, riding on the coattails of the Golden Dragon Bank's reputation. "Speaking of the Empyrean Chronicle, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing is truly remarkable. I heard that Chu Qing managed to injure a Duke and retreat unharmed despite being just at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier," Li Hongli suddenly said.

Li Qingfeng nodded in agreement. "Chu Qing is indeed gifted. He has dual resonances, one at the quasi ninth-grade and one at the upper eighth-grade. Furthermore, he has mastered the famed Duke Art of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing, God of War's Heaven Penetrating Fist. He is truly a formidable guy."

"And there is also Qin Yi with a ninth-grade water resonance. High and aloof, she has also been nicknamed the Fairy of Water. Still, she has not even reached the Heavenly Resonance Tier, but I heard she has already been listed on the Empyrean Chronicle due to her stunning beauty," Jin Ming chuckled. Hearing this, Li Hongli gave him a deadly stare, and he quickly restrained his smile.

"Speaking of which... Chu Qing is the direct disciple of Hall Master Qin Lian from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing, isn't that right? And Qin Yi is her daughter," Li Qingfeng responded with a smile. At this moment, everyone turned their attention over playfully as Qin Lian's name was mentioned.

There was a huge incident involving Qin Lian many years ago. Everyone in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent knew about it as it nearly caused a fight to break out between the two powers of the Heavenly Emperor level.

Back then, Li Taixuan from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li and Qin Lian from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing had been engaged.

However, Li Taixuan was not interested in an arranged marriage. Instead, he fell in love with Tan Tailan, who came from the most ordinary of backgrounds. After Li Taixuan openly rejected the marriage in public, Hall Master Qin Lian was enraged. Rumors had it that the Fire Lotus Hall lead by Hall Master Qin Lian had issued a secret order forbidding anyone in their hall from having any sort of involvement with the Dragon's Fang Lineage. If any conflicts or disputes arose with them, a battle to the death was required to resolve the situation. It was only after Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan left the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent that the incident slowly dissipated from recent memory.

But with the return of Li Luo, tongues began wagging once again.

What if Hall Master Qin Lian heard about the son of Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan? Although Li Jingzhe of the Dragon's Fang Lineage had mentioned letting bygones be bygones... how would the current generation react to this? "It seems as though the birthday of the Dragon's Blood Lineage's Respected Elder is coming up, right?" Li Hongli smiled with her cherry-red lips.

As if he understood where Li Hongli was coming from, Li Qingfeng nodded and said, "As the Mountain Ruling Chief, the Respected Elder has always wanted to pull ourselves closer to the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing. He even tried to arrange a marriage a while back, but to no avail...

"I heard the other Elders saying that the Respected Elder may be inviting guests from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing for his birthday, perhaps even Hall Master Qin Lian... Perhaps he would like to use this chance to break the ice between our two bloodlines."

Li Hongli bit her lips and smiled lightly. "Hall Master Qin Lian is not one to forgive and forget so easily. If she's really been invited... there will be a good show to watch."

Li Qingfeng smiled in response. Indeed, if Hall Master Qin Lian came, she would definitely bring along her favorite disciple... the famed one on the Empyrean Chronicle, as well as her beloved daughter. At that time, some conflict would inevitably arise.

Nonetheless, this had nothing to do with them. These were the troubles started by the Dragon's Fang Lineage back in the day. They would simply let the situation deal with itself. With that, Li Qingfeng stood up without any more words. With a wave of his hand, he led the banner members and left the square.

The Fiendish Devil Cave expidition had come to a closure. While some things had gone wrong, the mistakes were insignificant in the grand scheme of things. A small loss from the third division would not change the gears that had already been set into motion.

After all, this place was unlike the resource-deprived outer divine continents.
