"Phew..."
Minister Qi caught his breath. "You nearly angered me into manifesting a literary heart."
As he spoke, Minister Qi could not help sounding a little impressed. "Kid, it's a real shame you didn't join the School of Names. For a moment there, I thought you were about to become my sworn brother!"
"Do you mean that?" Lin Ke's eyes lit up. "Wonderful!"
If they became sworn brothers, would Qi Ye have to call him Uncle?
"You..." Minister Qi froze, opened his mouth, and found himself speechless.
Only after a long while did he slap his thigh. "Good lad! Now I can finally put my mind at ease!"
"I was worried you'd suffer once we got there..." Minister Qi chuckled. "Looks like you won't."
"All right, get used to your External Incarnation first. Tomorrow or the day after, we'll head over there for a stroll!"
Minister Qi patted Lin Ke on the shoulder.
Lin Ke nodded without saying anything more.
He trusted Minister Qi's judgment, too.
"I'll be off, then." Minister Qi looked around Lin Ke's room. "You'll have to spend some time redoing the power of imagination I destroyed earlier. Still... it really wasn't bad."
With that, Minister Qi vanished on the spot.
The power of imagination from earlier? Lin Ke thought it over briefly and still felt that some of his arrangements were not quite right.
For example, the Myriad Things Mother Qi Heavenly Emperor Cauldron that descended from overhead to suppress intruders should come down the moment someone entered.
The doorway connected to the Bronze Immortal Gate. Anyone who entered would be awed by the aura within it-or dumbfounded, like Minister Qi.
And in that instant, a great hulking cauldron would come crashing down from above.
Nice, nice... With that thought, Lin Ke immediately got to work.
