Water was in of his enthusiasm and hospitality

Li Qiye took a sip and s tea from the mortal world, especially when it tasted bad

Li Qiye turned his attention to a portrait hanging on the wall It turned yellow and its corners curled up frouishable - a ed man who looked somewhat scholarly with a profound pair of eyes

Nothing else stood out, perhaps a shrine beneath the portrait Instead of a regular shrine meant for worshi+p, it resembled a small ancient city There seemed to be statues of people but they were too blurry and lacked details

“Who is this?” Chu Zhu asked due to Li Qiye’s curiosity In the mortal world, many households kept portraits and shrines for their ancestors

“Legend has it?” Chu Zhu was confused

“We havehere, there’s Yin, Bai, and a few e chief responded

“Yes, one of our ancestors froer joined in

However, the fantastical legends of their ancestors brought them sparks of exciteiants capable of unbelievable feats

These stories gave them momentary solace from their harsh conditions

As they told these stories, Chu Zhu couldn’t help but glance over at Li Qiye, thinking about these stories
