Emperor's Domination

Chapter 6456: The Source

“I’m just a passerby.” Li Qiye smiled and waved his hand.

She stared at him intensely - a normal person sitting here with such composure? Impossible.

“You said this was the source of Gold Village, right?” She asked.

“Yes.” Li Qiye smiled.

His confidence made the crowd think twice.

“What are we waiting for, let’s start digging.” Some started shouting.

“Right, before someone else has a chance.” Others prepared for excavation.

“This is our spot.” A group wanted to take down the house.

“Enough!” Dugu Qing shouted and released her power, sweeping people off their feet.

“Buzz.” A towering golden tree appeared behind her and released laws brimming with power.

They instilled enormous pressure on the crowd. Cultivation mattered less since gold was the true ruler here.

Therefore, using dao power to go against dao power was a tall task even at the equivalent level.

Dugu Qing was not a top character in Gold Village. However, she was already strong in the real world and created a golden tree here.

“Octagon has been examined numerous times so a source would have been found.” Dugu Qing asked Li Qiye.

“She’s right.” The crowd murmured.

“Lord Alch-deer visited the town before too.” One expert said.

“Other emperors and primal ancestors as well.” An old cultivator said: “They would have figured it out.”

“Won’t we find out just by digging?” A golden light erupted and a colossal snake slithered closer. The gales emanating from it were accompanied by deadly miasma.

Fortunately, it also had a tree similar in size to Dugu Qing’s. The golden laws from it restrained the miasma.

“Snake Monarch.” Many gave way because this was one of the three kings.

He was a snake demon who found fortune in Gold Village. It must have been considerable for him to contend against Dugu Qing who came from a prestigious clan.

“Monarch Dugu, shall we check it out?” He didn’t care about anyone else.

“If a source is here, we can decide how it should be split.” Another golden light erupted and a native appeared.

His body was coated in sparkling gold. Behind him was a group of guards, adorned with golden spears and armor. They had a commanding presence.

“Golden Monarch.” Others exchanged glances.

Despite being a native born from the dream, he had enough gold to become a king in this town.

“We’re done here.” Others knew they could only watch.

“Okay, since we’re all here, let’s draw the dividing lines between us.” Snake Monarch gazed piercingly at the crowd, sending chills down their spine.

“Step aside if you don’t have business here!” Golden Monarch shouted.

“But we found this place first, we deserve a fair share.” An expert disagreed.

Alas, the guards began chasing them away.

“Brat, scram.” Snake Monarch noticed Li Qiye sitting there.

“You’re talking to me?” Li Qiye responded.

“That’s right, leave before I eat you.” Snake Monarch threatened.

“Little snake demon, not even the lord of Gold Village would dare to give me commands.” Li Qiye said casually.

“?!” Those who were being chased away stopped in their tracks.

“This brat doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.” Another commended.

“Haha, ignorant brat, do you know who the current golden lords are?” Golden Monarch laughed.
