Chapter 140

141. Chapter 141: Princes, Nobles, Generals, and Ministers

An unremarkable old servant was actually a Meridian Cultivation expert. The City Lord of Sanyang City was probably not as simple as he appeared on the surface. Zhao Ge, the master, had probably underestimated the City Lord of Sanyang City. Otherwise, Zhao Ge would have definitely told Li Yi that there were at least two Meridian Cultivation experts in the City Lord's Mansion.

It could be seen that this City Lord had kept everyone in the dark. If Li Yi hadn't turned Sanyang City upside down today, this City Lord probably wouldn't have revealed his hand.

And sending a Meridian Cultivation old servant to welcome Li Yi probably wasn't without the intention of showing off his strength.

"Since the City Lord of Sanyang City is so polite in inviting me as a guest, I will give you some face and see what you really mean."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Li Yi made his decision. He dismounted and walked toward the City Lord's Mansion with large strides.

Although Rong Niang had some concerns, she had no right to make decisions involving the game between Meridian Cultivation experts, so she just followed Li Yi honestly.

"Please." The hunched old servant smiled and gestured.

Li Yi glanced at the old servant and didn't pay much attention. Although this old servant's strength was very strong, if they really fought, he was still confident he could finish him off. Even if he joined forces with the City Lord who hadn't appeared yet, it would still be nothing to fear.

After killing two Meridian Cultivation experts in succession, his momentum had been cultivated, and he had a kind of heroic spirit that looked down on all heroes.

The music in the City Lord's Mansion was endless. There were graceful dancing girls, beautiful singing girls, and clever maids leading the way... It could be seen that this City Lord of Sanyang City was quite good at enjoying himself, keeping so many singing girls and dancing girls in the mansion without any concealment. These ancient nobles were truly corrupt and degenerate.

"If Young Master Li sees anyone he likes, just say the word. Whoever it is, from now on, they will be yours, Young Master Li."

The old servant narrowed his eyes and smiled. Clearly, he had also noticed that this young man, Li Yi, seemed quite interested in all this.

Li Yi smiled lightly: "Just looking at the singing girls and dancing girls here is enough. Take them back? Not interested. Your City Lord should keep them for himself."

Testing him with this? Which evolver couldn't withstand such a test?

He was someone who cultivated the White Bone Illusion.

"Since Young Master Li doesn't like them, I'll kill all these singing girls and dancing girls later and replace them with a new batch. I believe Young Master Li will be satisfied." The old servant said this casually.

Dozens of beautiful women seemed to be about to lose their lives because of this simple sentence.

The maid leading the way with her head slightly lowered trembled, almost falling to the ground, and the music also became chaotic. Among the graceful dancing girls, some couldn't steady their figures.

Their eyes were all filled with fear.

When Li Yi heard this, his footsteps stopped, and he narrowed his eyes at the old servant: "What do you take human life for? Tools for amusement? Saying such things in front of me, what do you want to do? Threaten me, or give me a show of force? Or do you want to use dozens of lives to disturb my state of mind?"

The old servant just lowered his head and said nothing.

Rong Niang on the side, although she had no qualifications to say anything, glared at him, feeling very angry inside.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Li Yi smiled coldly after a brief stare: "Very well. These singing girls rely on you to live. If you want to kill them, I can't manage that. But from today on, everyone in Sanyang City will have to rely on me, Li Yi, to live. If I want to kill someone, no one can manage that. You're right, aren't you?"

"Young Master Li, that's not right."

The old servant smiled and said: "Sanyang City belongs to my young master, and Xingzhou belongs to the Fan family. My Fan family is one of the Eight Kings, sitting in Xingzhou for a thousand years. We are born nobles, and no one can shake us."

"One of the Eight Kings, born nobles? Hahaha."

When Li Yi heard this, he laughed wildly. His laughter carried force, spreading out, making people's eardrums ache, startling the birds in the nearby trees, and making the koi in the water swim in chaos. The dancing girls and maids nearby stopped their music and dance, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, not daring to move, for fear of being too conspicuous and bringing disaster upon themselves.

"Young Master Li, what is there to laugh about in what I said?"

The old servant narrowed his eyes slightly. He felt a different momentum from this young expert, and the laughter revealed a kind of indescribable arrogance.

Li Yi's laughter stopped, and he immediately said: "Princes, nobles, generals, and ministers—are they born to be so? With one punch, I dare to make an emperor bleed. What is a mere prince's disciple? Is his life harder than my fist?"

Princes, nobles, generals, and ministers—are they born to be so?

The old servant's pupils constricted instantly. This sentence exploded in his mind like a thunderbolt.

Was there really such a lawless martial artist in the world who dared to say such rebellious words? If this were to spread, wouldn't it be a disaster? Wouldn't it cause chaos in the world?

Could it be that he wasn't afraid of death and the extermination of his clan?

"You old servant have knelt your whole life and are used to being a dog. Do you really think everyone in the world is a dog? I don't like you today. Take my punch, so you know that in the future, when you meet me, Li Yi, just kneel and kowtow, and don't say anything more." The next moment, Li Yi roared, and the force in his body surged in an instant. His glowing eyes instantly narrowed, turning into vertical pupils.

At this moment, the Meridian Cultivation old servant before him was regarded by Li Yi as prey, as if he were about to be captured.

Locked by Li Yi's vertical pupils, this old servant, who had been calm just a moment ago, felt his hair stand on end like a frightened wild beast.

Before the old servant could adapt, the next moment, Li Yi's tall and sturdy body arrived in the air, and with one punch, he delivered a terrifying killing blow.

The air was instantly shattered, rolling up a white wave. The deafening fist force sounded in his ears, as if the Lei Shen in the sky was waving the thunder hammer in his hand, emitting a divine thunder that shook the heavens and the earth.

Lei Shen's Hammer!

Tendons and bones resonated, divine strength was unleashed, and this punch mobilized all of Li Yi's essence and spirit. It seemed to have fist intent condensed, and the momentum was magnificent, making people feel truly and clearly that his fist dared to make an emperor bleed and make a prince perish.

This Meridian Cultivation old servant didn't dare to be careless at all. He let out a long roar, his Qi and blood boiled, and his protective Qi surged out. He also clenched his five fingers, threw a punch, and the fist aura condensed, meeting the attack.

"Boom!"

Two top Meridian Cultivation experts clashed with a punch. This was a collision of pure fist force, without any tricks inside. Each side seemed to want to determine the status and position of both sides through this strike.

The martial artists of the Four Seas and Eight Continents, in the final analysis, still have to rely on strength to speak.

If Li Yi couldn't even suppress a Meridian Cultivation old servant, then the previous "Princes, nobles, generals, and ministers—are they born to be so?" was just empty talk, without any persuasiveness.

However, this situation did not occur.

Li Yi's punch seemed even fiercer and more terrifying, possessing a kind of momentum that suppressed the Eight Continents and shook the mountains and rivers. And before he delivered this punch, two Meridian Cultivation experts had already died under his fist.

It could be said that his fist was incomparably confident, like a hundred-victorious army, carrying the momentum of victory, invincible.

The old servant's fist only held on for an instant, then retreated in defeat. His fist aura shattered, his energy was exhausted, and his not-so-thin body was knocked flying, thrown a full three zhang away, and finally, he forcibly unloaded the remaining force to stop his steps.

And his fist was bloody, with five fingers broken, revealing white bones.

"This kind of divine strength is terrifying." The Meridian Cultivation old servant's face changed constantly, and he was shocked.

This kind of fist was truly unparalleled in bravery. Just after one move, he, a Meridian Cultivation expert, felt the urge to retreat and no longer had the courage to swing a second punch.

It was a real blow that could drain a person's spirit.

And it wasn't just that the divine strength was amazing; why was it that with the same force, he was injured and his fingers were broken, while the other party was unscathed?

Could it be that this person had dragon tendons and tiger bones?

"Not bad. A bit stronger than the two Meridian Cultivation experts who died under my hand, but very limited. However, seeing that you are over sixty, your Qi and blood are declining, and your strength is probably not at its peak. Why don't you use that mouthful of heart-blood, raise your strength, and take a few more punches from me?"

Li Yi smiled coldly, and then, not letting go of his advantage, he moved his feet and pounced again.

A second punch was delivered.

The sound of the fist was like thunder, shaking the soul.

This old servant was shocked. Only now did he understand why this guy could seize two martial arts schools in one day. With such fist force, punch after punch, who could stop it?

If he resisted hard, the final result would only be being worn down to death alive.

But the second punch had already arrived, and he had no choice.

The old servant gritted his teeth, opened his eyes wide, and stepped hard on the ground with both feet, sinking deep into the soil, trying to fix his body so he wouldn't be knocked back. At the same time, his body leaned back like a tight bow, and every tendon and bone in his body made a clicking sound. Every bit of strength in his body was squeezed out. At the same time, he changed hands, mobilized all his Qi and blood to condense a punch as quickly as possible, forming a fist aura, and then met the attack again.

Divine Bow Shoots the Sun!

He unleashed his famous killing move. Once upon a time, he had used this killing move to finish off several Meridian Cultivation experts head-on.

"Boom!"

In the second collision, the fist aura exploded, and the energy whistled.

The old servant's face was distorted by the sweeping energy, and his eyes could hardly open. But in this wild wind and waves, he still saw the glowing vertical pupils locking onto him, like a true dragon lurking in the clouds, peeping at the dust of the mortal world, making people feel that at this moment, he was not facing a young martial artist, but challenging this true dragon.

But after this collision, the old servant's body did not retreat. He blocked this strike and even felt that he had suppressed the opponent by a notch, forcing the opponent to retract his fist early.

His chest heaved, and he took a big breath.

The old servant felt that he had regained some face, letting this Li Yi understand that there was a gap between Meridian Cultivation experts, and he shouldn't think he was the best in the world.

But before the old servant could calm his breath, the next moment, his pupils constricted, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

Li Yi was close at hand, his tall and sturdy body hadn't retreated a step, and instead, his glowing vertical pupils showed a bit of excitement. A third punch was thrown.

Just as fierce, no, even stronger than the previous two.

Still coming?

The old servant was terrified, and then roared, having no choice but to clench his fist to meet the attack. He repeated the previous killing move and threw another "Divine Bow Shoots the Sun."

"Boom!"

The energy exploded again. This time, his body could no longer stand in place, and he was forcibly pushed back a step by this divine strength.

Before he could continue to adjust.

A fourth punch followed closely.

"Ah!"

The old servant roared, having nowhere to hide, and met the attack again. But after this punch, he could no longer control his Qi and blood, and a mouthful of old blood was sprayed out. At the same time, his body moved back two more steps.

Just as he steadied his figure, a fifth punch fell.

The old servant met the attack again. This time, he no longer had the strength of before. His fist aura was instantly shattered. This time, the feet buried under the mud were directly broken with a click, and his whole body was heavily smashed to the ground with the remaining force, splashing up a cloud of dust.

But as soon as he fell, Li Yi's sixth punch arrived.

This punch after punch, the divine strength didn't diminish at all, beating this old servant into a retreat, truly wanting to wear him down to death alive.
