"Brother Li, hurry! Ba Xia is already at our door," Chi Xiaodao said anxiously to Li Qiye.
Li Qiye couldn’t help but chuckle. He nodded and said leisurely, "Very well. The timing is perfect. Since someone has come knocking on my door, begging to die, it would be a disservice not to oblige him." A smile spread across his face as he spoke.
Seeing Li Qiye’s brilliant smile, Sikong Toutian felt a chill run down his spine. It was like watching a bloodthirsty Fierce Beast bare its snow-white fangs. He wanted to turn and flee.
"Where do you think you’re going?" Li Qiye said slowly. "It’s time for you to earn your keep. Without any accomplishments, how can anyone trust you?"
Sikong Toutian, who had been about to slip away, had no choice but to stand his ground. He put on a cheerful grin and said, "Nowhere, nowhere at all. As long as you give the word, Young Master, I would go through fire and water for you."
"That’s good. Then prepare for a massacre." Li Qiye nodded seriously, with not a hint of jest in his voice.
Sikong Toutian could only follow with a pained expression. Head-on confrontations had never been his style, but he had no choice now!
Ba Xia had personally brought Sima Longyun to propose marriage. His arrival this time was aggressive and overbearing; he was clearly determined to succeed.
Anyone else who had been rejected after coming to propose marriage—especially after Chi Xiaodie had already made it clear she would not marry—would have been too embarrassed to shamelessly show up and propose again.
But this time, Ba Xia returned with Sima Longyun, acting as if he were completely in the right. His posture made it perfectly clear: Chi Xiaodie had to marry, whether she wanted to or not.
"Emperor Chi, three Great Sage True Artifacts as a betrothal gift for Miss Chi. I believe my Nu Xian Sacred Country has shown more than enough sincerity!" Ba Xia said slowly. Though his words were measured, his tone was still aggressive.
Three Great Sage True Artifacts! This was an earth-shattering offer anywhere. Regardless of their specific grade, Great Sage True Artifacts were terrifying, priceless treasures! For a smaller sect, receiving three as a betrothal gift would be considered an immense honor.
At this moment, the Lion Roar Emperor’s expression was incredibly grim. As for Chi Xiaodie, she was practically radiating fury, her beautiful eyes spitting fire.
"Worthy Nephew, please leave," the Lion Roar Emperor said coldly. "The Nu Xian Sacred Country is a worldly Overlord. My Lion Roar Sect is not worthy of such a high connection!"
Ba Xia’s aggressive arrival wasn’t a marriage proposal; it was a forced marriage! Forcing Chi Xiaodie to marry against her will was a great humiliation for her father, the Lion Roar Emperor.
Ba Xia’s eyes sharpened, and his aura surged. He said, "Emperor Chi, do not bring ruin upon yourself. My junior brother is a hero of this generation. In terms of looks, talent, and passion, he and Miss Chi are a match made in heaven! When they marry, my own royal father will preside over the ceremony, and our Elder Ancestor will give his blessing. It will be a grand occasion. I believe this will be a blissful union. With the might of my Nu Xian Sacred Country, we will not dishonor Miss Chi. For the Lion Roar Sect, this is an opportunity to bring glory to your ancestors."
Ba Xia’s bullying was too much. The Lion Roar Emperor and Chi Xiaodie trembled with rage. This was an utter humiliation for the Lion Roar Sect!
"Bring glory to your ancestors?" At this moment, a lazy voice drifted over. "What kind of rubbish was the Primordial Ancestor of the Nu Xian Sacred Country? How dare you compare him to the Chi Family’s ancestor, the Hundred Battles Divine Emperor! When your ancestor was still alive, he would have been lucky to even carry the Hundred Battles Divine Emperor’s shoes!"
"Li Qiye!" Hearing this voice, Sima Longyun jumped as if he’d been stung by a scorpion and shrieked.
At that, Li Qiye strolled in as if he were taking a walk in a garden. He glanced at Ba Xia but didn’t even seem to register his presence.
Ba Xia’s eyes instantly sharpened. A domineering aura erupted from him like a rainbow as he took a step forward, shaking the very mountains and rivers. A surging torrent of Blood Qi instantly suppressed the entire area, making it difficult for anyone to breathe.
Seeing Li Qiye, Chi Xiaodie’s heart leaped with joy. She took a deep breath, and her worried heart settled. With Li Qiye here, she felt that even if the heavens were to fall, he would hold them up with a single hand.
Seeing Li Qiye emerge, Ba Xia sneered. He ignored Li Qiye and spoke gravely to the Lion Roar Emperor, "Emperor Chi, do not push the Lion Roar Sect’s centuries-old foundation into a bottomless Abyss over an outsider! If you have any foresight at all, you should expel this certain person from your sect. Otherwise, you might bring a world-ending disaster upon yourselves."
"Brother Ba Xia is absolutely right." Just then, another voice rang out. Hu Yue of the Tiger Roar Sect barged in. The disciples of the Lion Roar Sect couldn’t stop him even if they tried.
Hu Yue strode in with the majestic presence of a tiger and the gait of a dragon. In the blink of an eye, he was before them, moving as if he owned the place—unhindered, arrogant, and utterly contemptuous.
That Hu Yue would barge in like this made the Lion Roar Emperor’s expression turn extremely ugly. His actions showed a complete lack of respect; he didn’t put the Lion Roar Sect in his eyes at all.
After forcing his way in, Hu Yue glanced around with his tiger-like eyes and smiled. "I also think Brother Sima and Miss Chi are a match made in heaven. For Miss Chi to marry into the Nu Xian Sacred Country is a blessing from her ancestors. Brother Ba Xia, since your two families are to be joined in marriage, why pick a date when today is as good as any? Why not just have them marry today?"
"You—" At this, the Lion Roar Emperor’s family of three trembled with anger. Chi Xiaodao stepped forward and said furiously, "Tiger Roar Sect, don’t you go too far!"
"Go too far?" Hu Yue looked down at Chi Xiaodao with arrogant disdain. "Chi Xiaodao, take some advice. Stop messing around with that guy surnamed Li. Also, if you dare show your face at the Bao Yun Family again, I’ll personally cut off your hands and feet, destroy your Dao Practice, and leave you a cripple for the rest of your life!"
"Junior Brother Yun, what are you waiting for? Go and pay your respects to your father-in-law!" Ba Xia said with a cold laugh.
Sima Longyun was overjoyed and rushed forward, about to kowtow. This infuriated the Lion Roar Emperor and Chi Xiaodie so much they nearly coughed up blood.
"What’s this? Are you trying to kowtow to me as your grandfather? A shame, really. I have no worthless descendants like you." Just as Sima Longyun was about to bow, Li Qiye instantly appeared in front of the Lion Roar Emperor.
Sima Longyun’s anger surged to the heavens. At this moment, he finally exploded. With Ba Xia and the entire Nu Xian Sacred Country backing him, he no longer feared Li Qiye. He roared, "You little bastard, I’ve had enough of you!" With another furious roar, he charged like a mad bull, activating his Golden Bull Body at its full power, intending to send Li Qiye flying.
BOOM! Li Qiye didn’t even dodge. As Sima Longyun’s Golden Bull Body crashed into him, he simply reached out and caught him. Even though the Golden Bull Body could shatter mountains, it couldn’t budge Li Qiye in the slightest.
In that moment, Li Qiye seemed to have a thousand hands and ten thousand arms, like a True God descending upon the world. Each arm seemed capable of holding up a world, and behind him, the Nine Great Realms emerged! Sima Longyun was caught by four of Li Qiye’s hands, held in a posture as if he were about to be drawn and quartered.
Li Qiye’s four hands were like they were cast from Divine Gold, completely unbreakable. Pinned in his grasp, Sima Longyun couldn’t move him an inch, despite his Prince-level strength and his Golden Bull Body.
With a Minor Achievement Immortal Body, the Thousand Hands Reverse Nine Realms technique, and Li Qiye’s own power having already reached the King and Marquis Realm, Sima Longyun was no match for him at all.
When the Thousand Hands Reverse Nine Realms—the Clan Guardian Treasure of the Ten Thousand Forms True God—was unleashed through a Minor Achievement Immortal Body, it could shake the Nine Heavens above and sink Hell below. It could slay Immortals in defiance and support the entire world in compliance. Compared to this, Sima Longyun’s meager Golden Bull Body was nothing.
"Li Qiye, if you dare to touch a single hair on my junior brother’s head today, don’t even think about leaving this place alive!" Ba Xia took a step forward, his domineering aura blasting towards the sky, his Blood Qi swirling like a tempest.
Hu Yue also took a step forward and sneered, "You, surnamed Li, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll surrender without a fight. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you today. I’m afraid you’ll soon learn the meaning of a life worse than death!"
In an instant, Hu Yue and Ba Xia formed a pincer formation, poised to trap Li Qiye. They looked ready to strike together and kill him in a single blow.
It seemed they had come prepared today. They weren’t just here for the marriage proposal; they were likely here to kill Li Qiye as well. To achieve their goals and seize the Lion Roar Sect’s Supreme Immortal Body Technique, they first had to kill Li Qiye and remove this stumbling block from their path.
"Just two little caterpillars like you dare to come out and threaten me?" With his thousand hands and ten thousand arms, Li Qiye looked at Hu Yue and Ba Xia and chuckled slowly. "Forget you two caterpillars. Even if your ancestors crawled out of their graves, if they pissed me off, I’d personally dismantle their bones one by one!" As the words fell, he tightened his grip on Sima Longyun’s limbs.
"NO—" Sima Longyun screamed. With a wet RIP, Li Qiye tore him into four pieces. Even his True Destiny couldn’t escape; another hand instantly crushed it!
In the blink of an eye, Sima Longyun was ripped apart by Li Qiye without even the strength to resist! Even at the moment of death, Sima Longyun couldn’t accept it. ’With my senior brother here to back me up, how could Li Qiye possibly dare to kill me?!’
"You’re courting death!" Ba Xia and Hu Yue roared in fury. They attacked in the same instant, unleashing a strike that could sink heaven and earth. They aimed their incomparably tyrannical blow directly at Li Qiye, intending to kill him with this single attack.
"Get lost—" Li Qiye’s Prison Suppressing Divine Body erupted. The might of his Divine Body swept through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands. His thousand hands lifted Three Thousand Small Worlds and shouldered the Nine Great Worlds. As his thousand hands and ten thousand arms pressed down, it was as if the Three Thousand Small Worlds themselves were crashing down, enough to collapse the heavens and shatter the Eighteen Layers of Hell.
Prince-level strength, a Minor Achievement Immortal Body, and a True God’s Clan’s Secret Technique. With these three combined, even an Ancient Saint attacking in person would stand no chance. The supremacy of an Immortal Body was no empty boast!
BOOM! A deafening explosion rang out. The Lion Roar Sect’s camp was instantly shattered by the impact. However, Ba Xia and Hu Yue gained no advantage from their attack. They were struck by the thousand hands and ten thousand arms and sent flying, crashing through what was left of the Lion Roar Sect’s encampment.
