Chapter 99: Gu Yue, Humbled Online

Very well, boy. I admire your courage more than words can say.

I will make you disappear at once. When you stand before the King of Hell, I hope you can still be this brave.

Gou Yue’s face turned green and white by turns, the corners of his mouth twitching, his whole body trembling uncontrollably. It was clear he had been enraged to the extreme.

Li Jiansan’s actions were simply outrageous, brazen beyond measure!

He had already lowered himself as much as possible, yet no one had ever dared, in his presence, to be so aggressive and defiant before all.

Li Jiansan had to die today.

Otherwise, how could he ever hold his head up in the future?

The fury in Gou Yue’s heart surged like a volcanic eruption, erupting in an instant with wild violence. He seemed like a primordial beast, fully unleashing its savage nature. That boundless pressure poured out completely, as if it meant to swallow Li Jiansan whole.

You old cur, you really dare strike? Do you know who my young master is? Can you afford to offend him?

You are only a second-rank spirit formation master, and you still dare make a move against my young master? I think you are tired of living.

Young Master, stop being so low-key. Let this old cur see what you are capable of.

Following Li Jiansan’s earlier instructions, Xiao Shunzi suddenly shouted at this moment.

Although Li Jiansan had assured him, Xiao Shunzi was still terrified when he said these words.

Wasn’t the young master too calm? If his identity was truly extraordinary, then why had he endured all the way until now?

Gou Yue was nothing but an old dog, merely a second-rank spirit formation master. What was there to fear?

Then Xiao Shunzi suddenly thought: what if the young master was just fooling him? Wouldn’t that mean he was doomed?

Saying these things in front of Gou Yue was practically walking straight to his death.

After Xiao Shunzi finished speaking, silence fell in every direction.

Everyone stared at him in shock. Could the servant the Young Sect Master had just bought be out of his mind?

A second-rank spirit formation master was an incomparably noble existence. Not just in the imperial city, but across the entire Great Jiang Ancient Kingdom within a million li, he was still a figure of great prestige.

However monstrous Li Jiansan might be, could he really be more distinguished than a second-rank spirit formation master?

He is nothing but a brat. Stop trying to scare me and die!

Gou Yue roared, and in his withered hand a sky-covering palm imprint over ten zhang wide instantly condensed, carrying the terrifying might to obliterate the heavens as it crashed down upon Li Jiansan’s body.

Hum.

Under Gou Yue’s horrifying power, the air was compressed to the limit, and a fierce gale rose all around.

Whoosh...

Amid the whirling wind, Li Jiansan’s robe snapped loudly. In the brief moment when Gou Yue drew near, he seemed to catch sight of a token at Li Jiansan’s waist.

This is Master Mo’s waist token... No good, retreat at once!

When Gou Yue clearly saw that token, he did not hesitate even at the cost of serious injury and quickly withdrew his power.

Pfft.

After Gou Yue pulled back his force, he suffered the backlash of his own power and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, everyone on the field was filled with confusion.

He had almost beaten him to death just now, so why had he suddenly stopped?

You... you are the recently famous Little Alchemy King of Flowing Fire City?

Gou Yue asked cautiously. He recognized that waist token well; it was the personal token of Master Mo, one of the three great figures of the Alchemist Guild in Flowing Fire City.

The Alchemist Guild and the Spirit Formation Masters Guild were forces of equal standing.

If he offended them rashly, it would be a road to death.

What, you know me?

After receiving Li Jiansan’s reply, Gou Yue was instantly panicked.

The Little Alchemy King was the treasured disciple fought over and adored by the three masters of the Alchemist Guild.

It was said that for this beloved disciple, they would spare no cost, even going so far as to destroy an entire family force, all just so their disciple could feel more at ease.

If Li Jiansan really was the Little Alchemy King, then he was truly finished.

Though those three masters were only alchemists from Flowing Fire City, no one had ever dared underestimate their weight.

At their peak, even the sovereign himself would have been beneath their notice.

Moreover, they had deep ties with the chairman of the Spirit Formation Masters Guild in the imperial city.

If he offended the disciple of those three masters today, then the Spirit Formation Masters Guild would certainly make his life worse than death!

Our young sect master is really that Little Alchemy King?

Heavens... how could this be? Our Azure Heaven Gate actually produced such a monstrous genius!

The young sect master is only sixteen years old! At such an age, to possess such talent and achievements is truly terrifying!

If our young sect master is really that Little Alchemy King, then that old fellow Gou Yue is in serious trouble. He has truly gotten himself into huge trouble, hahahaha...

Everyone around was filled with shock, each of them drawing a sharp breath. With a monster like Li Jiansan in their ranks, the rise of Azure Heaven Gate truly seemed within reach!

Hahaha, I was only just investigating the identity of that Little Alchemy King, even planning to pay any price to recruit him.

But I never imagined that this Little Alchemy King would actually be my own son. Hahaha, this brat really kept it from me for far too long...

Li Qingming laughed heartily as well.

He... he really is... the Little Alchemy King... this...

He is the disciple of those three great figures... If I have offended him, am I not dead for sure...

At this point, Gou Yue was completely devoid of his former arrogance. His whole body trembled incessantly, terror reaching its limit. With a thud, his knees gave way and he dropped to the ground uncontrollably.

He was the Little Alchemy King.

The existence standing behind him was unimaginable: the three great figures of the Alchemist Guild.

Those super-important people could decide his death with a single sentence.

His little bit of strength was nothing but dog crap before them.

I’m done for. This time I really climbed onto a tiger’s head...

Hey, hey, why are you kneeling?

Aren’t you the lofty Spirit Formation Master? How could I possibly deserve this?

Didn’t you say your status was noble, your position transcendent, and that a single word from you could send me to my death?

Shouldn’t it be me kneeling here, begging you for mercy? What are you doing?

Li Jiansan said teasingly.

Young Master Li, no, no, Young Master Li, Grandfather Li, it was all my fault, all because I was blind and offended you!

Li Jiansan kicked him once. Go to hell. I’m still young; don’t call me old!

Yes, yes, yes, Your Excellency Li!

This old man knows his sins are heavy and does not dare hope for Your Excellency Li’s forgiveness, but I beg you to think of the fact that I have old people above me and children below me, and spare me.

Your Excellency Li, please show mercy!

Gou Yue crawled all the way to Li Jiansan’s feet on his knees, wrapped himself around Li Jiansan’s leg, and kept kowtowing and pleading.

He had no other thoughts now, only to preserve his life.

Even if he were given ten times the courage, he would not dare harbor the slightest disrespect again.

Ding.

Triggered a random quest: host, display the villain’s unforgiving nature and drive Gou Yue half to death!
