Emperor’s Domination - Chapter 2757

Chapter 2757: 2757

“That’s the end…” Someone said softly after seeing Ziqing’s head fall to the ground .

Everyone stared at each other in confusion since none of them expected Mountguard to come out victoriously .

“Will Mountguard rise again?” Someone questioned .

A few experts contemplated for a moment . An ancestor eventually said: “A glacier doesn’t appear overnight . ”

Some ancestors didn’t look too highly on Mountguard still . It wasn’t easy for a sect to rise . This required generations of effort and more than just one or two masters .

In order to reach the top, a sect needed many elite disciples . A mansion couldn’t be built with just one tree .

“It’s still too early to say . The key is whether they’ll be able to traverse the oncoming storm . ” One elder gauged .

“They might have been too arrogant and reckless, showing a lack of patience . ” One high elder analyzed .

Some agreed with this assessment . Mountguard has offended two behemoths in the system today - a very unwise choice . No one else would pick this path .

The crowd didn’t believe Li Qiye alone could oppose those two powers . They had plenty of masters, many of whom were Eternals . This ancestor could be extremely mighty but two hands couldn’t handle four fists .

“Mountguard has been on a decline for too long so it did need a boost like this . However, they might have picked the wrong targets . It won’t be long until it turns to ashes . ” A True God wasn’t optimistic about Mountguard’s chances .

“Hmph . ” Pinnacle Sword Saint snorted after seeing this, very unhappy about the result and wanted to leave .

“You think you can leave?” Li Qiye chuckled .

“What are you trying to say?” The saint stared at Li Qiye with a changed expression, clearly apprehensive .

He was a powerful Ascender compared to the juniors but not much more compared to Flame Banner Sacred Lord . The latter got annihilated by Li Qiye so he was no match either . Everyone speculated that Li Qiye must be an Eternal .

His kingdom had Eternals too but they wouldn’t come out for no reason . He was afraid but couldn’t back down in public .

“Not much, I’ll just be taking your dog life . ” Li Qiye smiled .

“You!” The sword saint stumbled backward, horrified .

“Fellow Daoist, we have no feud between us . ” He took a deep breath and said .

The crowd didn’t expect Li Qiye to target the sword saint too .

“Indeed, but you’re an eyesore so I will kill you . ” Li Qiye elaborated .

This reason astounded the crowd . It was too illogical yet domineering .

“Is he insane? Mountguard doesn’t have enough enemies already?” Someone blurted out .

“Fellow Daoist, you’re being unreasonable here . ” The sword saint’s expression became unsightly .

He was relatively famous in the system and definitely a big shot in his own kingdom . Today, this contemptuous treatment from Li Qiye was too much to take .  

“So what? Everyone has their own position and bias, that’s perfectly fine, but for a referee to do so? You threw away your own reputation along with the system’s and its virtuous temperament . To be so blatantly impartial in an official duel, no other disciples will feel safe after this precedence . Thus, you have damaged the very integrity of cultivation and deserve death!” Li Qiye glanced at him and said .

Numerous members of the crowd nodded their head in agreement . The sword saint did set a bad precedent for the system . No one would trust referees later on after this act .

The sword saint turned red and white but couldn’t come up with a retort . He was indeed wrong in this matter .

“In my eyes, you can only repent with death . So, will you end yourself or do I have to do it?” Li Qiye added .

The sword saint stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do .

“Hmph, I’m not playing with you anymore . ” He waved his sleeve and decided to leave . He regretted lingering around to watch the show earlier instead of just leaving right away . It became so problematic .

“As I have said, you’re not leaving this place alive . ” Li Qiye suddenly appeared in front of his path .

No one saw how he did it due to his impeccable speed despite still being in a wheelchair .

The alarmed saint staggered backward .

“Two choices, suicide or be killed by me . ” Li Qiye calmly sat there and threatened .

“Fellow Daoist, even if I was unfair in that fight, it doesn’t warrant a fight to the death between us . ” The saint took a deep breath and composed himself before coldly uttering .

“It’s nothing like that, you’ll be the one dying for sure . ” Li Qiye said .

The saint found Li Qiye’s attitude exasperating . The guy spoke as if he was chatting with an ant . Alas, Li Qiye was really stronger than him .

“Fellow Daoist, I admit my mistake and bias earlier . ” The saint conceded, not minding a momentary setback .

He cupped his fist and continued: “It’s better to make a friend than an enemy . This meeting is a type of fate, my Pinnacle Kingdom welcomes you as a guest whenever . ”

People could see that the saint was trying to please Li Qiye by accepting defeat . There was nothing else he could do because of the power gap . Plus, he could have his revenge later as long as he can get through today .

All eyes turned towards Li Qiye now . In their opinion, Mountguard was still too weak . It was better to make a friend instead of an enemy right now .

Allowing the sword saint to leave could create a potential relationship between the two sects . That’s not a bad thing at all .

“Don’t make me repeat myself . Still the same two choices as before . ” Li Qiye didn’t bite .

“You!” The saint didn’t know what to do . He had accepted defeat in a humble manner yet Li Qiye still wouldn’t let him off!
