582: Even if I'm wrong...are you not wrong at all?

When Li Qi went out to hunt down Saint Kings for the first time, unexpected circumstances arose. Although he found the people, he did not strip the Sacred Throne from them, nor did he Seal them.

Since these two Saint Kings were willing to follow him, he would just keep them for now.

"Since you are so eager to join us, then go to Gu Yong City and stay there."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two Saint Kings couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that this Li Qi was easier to talk to than they had imagined; he wasn't someone who would just shout about killing and fighting at the drop of a hat.

As for what Li Qi said about them having to hand over their Sacred Throne later just like Aurora Saint King, they didn't care, or rather, they couldn't control that much anymore.

Surviving the present was what mattered most. If they couldn't even pass this current hurdle... what was the point of talking about the future?

Besides, who could say for sure what would happen in the future?

Li Qi was strong now, and no one could beat him, but what if he suffered divine retribution in the future... and died halfway through?

Wouldn't the two of them be liberated then?

Hearing that Li Qi had agreed to their joining, the two Saint Kings, Nine Flowers and Supreme Saint King, were overjoyed and hastily agreed.

"Good, good, good! We will go to Gu Yong City right away!"

However, Li Qi's tone shifted, and he continued: "I'll say the ugly words first. Although I have agreed to your joining, don't even think about playing tricks on me."

"If you dare to run away halfway, rest assured... I will be able to find you two again."

"At that time, I won't be as easy to talk to as I am now."

The two Saint Kings nodded like chickens pecking at rice and hurriedly replied: "Rest assured, my lord, we will definitely not run away."

Speaking of which, Supreme Saint King tentatively asked another question: "My lord, allow me to ask one more thing... how exactly did you find us?"

"We were clearly hiding very well here; you shouldn't have been able to find us!"

Seeing Supreme Saint King trying to pry for information, Li Qi did not fall for it and just gave a mysterious smile: "Guess..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qi's figure vanished from the spot, leaving only the two Saint Kings looking at each other in dismay, and they finally let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, a trace of resentment appeared on Supreme Saint King's face: "It's all your fault for insisting on hiding here; now we've both been screwed over."

Nine Flowers Saint King also became anxious: "Even if I am at fault... don't you have even a little bit of fault!?!"

"Besides, is this a question of where we were hiding?"

"No matter where we hide, that Child of the Great Path has heaven-reaching means; he can find us!"

"The only difference is how soon or late it happens."

The two Saint Kings were friends of many years; after arguing for a few sentences, they both stopped, feeling a wave of dejection.

After adjusting their moods, the two Saint Kings did not dawdle and immediately rushed toward the direction of Gu Yong City, their figures disappearing from sight.

Because everyone had intentionally restrained their Qi just now, the outside world did not notice, and everyone in Five-Color City did not discover that just a moment ago... three Saint Kings had met in Five-Color City.

They arrived silently, and when they left, they similarly did not stir up the slightest ripple...

...

The matter of the two Saint Kings, Nine Flowers and Supreme Saint King, was just a small interlude for Li Qi. After confirming that the two Saint Kings were heading to Gu Yong City, he stopped paying attention.

"Not bad, not bad, this Sacred Mark Secret Technique is truly useful... spot on every time!"

Thinking back to those two idiots just now, Li Qi couldn't help but want to laugh.

He didn't know what those two were thinking, hiding in the Origin Realm, right under his nose.

Did they really think he couldn't find them?

After solving the issue with these two Saint Kings, Li Qi cast [Sacred Throne] again and began searching anew.

His Sacred Throne once again manifested thin, golden threads. After observing them carefully, he could confirm that the only Saint Kings hiding in the Origin Realm were those two; the other Saint Kings were hiding elsewhere.

There were some hiding in other Source Realms, and there were also some in the Major Thousand Worlds and Middle Thousand Worlds beneath the Source Realms.

"Thirty-one in total, all scattered quite far..."

"No matter, I'll just go find them one by one."

The Saint Kings hiding in other Source Realms did not need Li Qi to find them, because not long ago, Li Qi had sent his Clones to all the other Source Realms. His Clones' strength was very close to his original body, which was perfect for letting his Clones take care of these Saint Kings.

As long as no massive accident occurred... none of the Saint Kings hiding in other Source Realms would escape!

After giving orders to his Clones, Li Qi stopped paying attention to the situation in the Source Realms and instead turned his gaze toward the various worlds below.

Soon, Li Qi discovered a target of interest.

A Saint King was actually hiding in a Minor Thousand Worlds, and after checking the number of golden threads on the Sacred Throne, he could tell that the other party was a powerful existence who had achieved Fusion with eight Sacred Thrones!

Li Qi quickly thought of one person... that was Qing Shang!

Qing Shang was an even older Saint King than Purple Zenith Saint King, the strongest Saint King of two generations ago, but had long since vanished without a trace for many years.

And Li Qi had not expected that he would unintentionally find a clue about this Saint King.

"Interesting... I didn't expect it to be Qing Shang."

"To think you would hide in a tiny Minor Thousand Worlds..."

"I'll come and have a chat with you first."
