“You!” Green-robed Heavenly Merchant’s expression became ugly. After all, no one could handle such disrespect in public, certainly not an alliance as prestigious as theirs.

　　“Being friends with us will yield many advantages while the opposite is nothing but disastrous. It’s not worth it doing this over some ants.” The merchant put on an aggressive face since he was no coward. 

　　They have never been afraid of anyone outside of the three behemoths and would kill those who dare to antagonize them. Thus, the merchant no longer put on a courteous act.

　　“Your bunch are ants in my eyes.” Li Qiye chuckled and raised his hand to touch the air.

　　“Pop! Pop! Pop!” The disciples from the federation instantly turned into b.l.o.o.d.y mists without the chance to resist or scream.

　　“You!” The merchant became aghast.

　　Li Qiye suddenly disappeared to the merchant’s dismay. He instinctively raised his hands to summon a great s.h.i.+eld pulsing with divinity. It was an artifact of the Eternal level and possessed amazing defensive capabilities.

　　Li Qiye responded with a knee strike.

　　“Boom!” The s.h.i.+eld instantly crumbled and the merchant was blown flying while vomiting blood. He slammed into the city wall and left a big hole behind.

　　All of this happened in the blink of an eye so people only saw the merchant being buried by debris. Everyone seemed to be struck by lightning.

　　This wasn’t the first time they saw Li Qiye in action but they were still shaken all the same. They didn’t know how to describe Li Qiye for he was too domineering and direct.

　　Li Qiye didn’t need profound techniques and invincible merit laws. His movements were as simple as can be - just violent punches and kicks that could be used by a three-year-old.

　　However, these moves still defeated Eternals all the same, rendering them helpless in a shocking manner.

　　As quiet as a virgin yet as swift as a rabbit with sheer destruction in each move - people thought back and forth and this was the only right way to describe Li Qiye. [1]

　　“Bam!” The merchant got out of the pile of rocks and looked quite tattered.

　　That strike earlier from Li Qiye almost ended his life. Blood was everywhere while his expression paled.

　　“See, you are no different from them under my foot, just another ant.” Li Qiye posed coolly while speaking.

　　Wu Youzheng and Lin Yixue took advantage of this rare opportunity and jumped on stage to save the captives.
