Chapter 199 Probe One’s Strength

City Lord Su’s cold voice echoed in the Su Clan’s main hall, causing the faces of the three messengers to stiffen and their complacent expressions to freeze.

“You’re not agreeing? Could it be that you’re wrong?” They thought that they had heard wrongly and couldn’t help but ask again to confirm.

“You heard right. I repeat, I won’t agree to any of these requests!” City Lord Su said in a deep voice.

“What do you mean? Are you kidding us?” The messenger of Xin’an City, Lu Han, said angrily.

“No, where did I play with you guys? It’s clearly you guys playing with me!” City Lord Su sneered.

“How dare you not cooperate? You dare to go against the will of Xin’an City. Since that’s the case, I will definitely report this matter to the Patriarch as it is! I will punish you for your disrespect, and the consequences will be serious! I hope you won’t make a mistake.” Lu Leng said coldly.

‘”That’s right, City Lord Jiang Yuan, if you refuse to agree to these requests, then that means you refuse to agree to peace. This is offending Xin’an City. Have you thought about the consequences of such a disrespectful act?” The messenger from Wanqing City sneered.

‘”When the time comes, Xin’an City will send a few experts to trample down your tiny Jiangyuan City. You will lose everything! The conditions you have agreed to with us now, you can still keep some things. You must think carefully about which is more important.” The messenger from Baifu City was also helping.

The three of them were extremely arrogant, obviously colluding to suppress Jiangyuan City with the general momentum of Xin’an City.

City Lord Su laughed loudly, “You have to figure out one thing. Baifu City and Wanqing City are the losers. Losers do not have the right to speak! Only the victors can make demands! Now, as the victors, I, Jiangyuan City, formally make a request to you!”

“You actually dare to make a request to us?” The faces of the three messengers were a little ugly. They didn’t expect City Lord Su’s attitude to be so tough.

“Baifu City and Wanqing City’s messengers, listen carefully. After returning, each family will prepare 20,000 spirit stones to compensate us for the losses in this battle. I will let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, I will bring people to flatten your city and see if Xin’an City can protect you!” City Lord Su said with a dignified expression.

The aura of his Xiantian realm was emitted. How could these three Houtian realm nobody withstand it? The arrogant expression on his face had long disappeared. At this moment, it was all pale and terrified.

Lu Han felt extremely humiliated. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, “City Lord Jiang Yuan, you actually dare to offend Xin’an City. If this continues, there will definitely be a bad ending! Let’s wait and see!”

City Lord Su’s expression turned cold as he said, “You, a minor character at the Houtian realm, actually dared to shout at a dignified Xiantian expert. If it weren’t for the forces behind you, I would have captured and killed you long ago! Today, I will teach you a lesson and let you understand the dignity of Xiantian experts.”

With that, he stretched out his palm and a huge True Essence palm slapped towards Lu Han.

“Ah–you dare!” Lu Han was both shocked and angry. He didn’t expect City Lord Su to actually dare to attack him. He didn’t care about the forces behind him at all. This was completely offending him.

Right at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, “The head of a dignified city actually made a move against an envoy. It is truly disgraceful.”

A streak of light streaked across the hall and rushed into the hall. A huge pressure was emitted. It was actually a Xiantian expert!

This streak of light was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it was close to City Lord Su. First, it easily shattered the palm that City Lord Su had struck out. Then, its momentum did not diminish, and it rushed towards City Lord Su like a bolt of lightning.

This mysterious Xiantian expert stabbed his sword towards City Lord Su’s throat. It was extremely vicious, clearly trying to kill him!

“Xiantian 5th layer!” City Lord Su’s expression changed as he sensed the danger of life and death. Just as he was about to dodge, he saw Li Qing suddenly stand up.

“Where did this thief come from? He actually dares to act wildly in front of me!” Li Qing shouted and punched out.

With a’dang ‘sound, this sword pierced into Li Qing’s fist, leaving a bloody hole.

The opponent’s sword was also bent down by this punch. Then, he flicked out and sent the mysterious expert flying.

Li Qing looked at the bloody hole in his hand and couldn’t help but frown, “Top-grade True Artifact!”

As the purple light flowed, the bloody hole closed and returned to normal. The Myriad Demon True Body had a strong recovery ability, and even if it was injured, it was not afraid at all.

After the mysterious expert landed on the ground, he took four or five steps back before stopping his body. His face turned red and his chest felt stuffy. It was obvious that he was not feeling so good.

He watched Li Qing clench his fist against his top-grade True Artifact, and his wound quickly healed. He couldn’t help but be shocked. He said, “I’ve heard for a long time that the Su Clan’s Guest Protector in Jiangyuan City is strong and has an unparalleled physical body. Today, his reputation is indeed worthy of being remembered.”

“Who are you?” Li Qing asked coldly.

“I am the elder of the Lu Clan of Xin’an City, Lu Song!”

“So it’s someone from Xin’an City who secretly sneaked in. What do you want? And you actually dare to kill City Lord Jiang Yuan!” Li Qing was furious.

Lu Song’s imposing manner was completely suppressed. He explained, “Originally, I only wanted to come over and take a look. I wasn’t planning to make a move. However, I didn’t expect that City Lord Jiang Yuan would actually make a move against an envoy of the Houtian realm. This is truly disgraceful to the City Lord! In a moment of anger, I acted a bit ruthlessly. I didn’t really want to kill him.”

His words were half true and half false. He had actually come here to test the strength of Jiangyuan City. If he had the chance to kill City Lord Su, it would be even better. Unfortunately, Li Qing had stopped him.

Of course, Li Qing wouldn’t be deceived by this casual remark. He sneered, “It was clearly your messenger who spoke disrespectfully first. Could it be that we still can’t teach him a lesson? Since that’s the case, then you can take a punch from me!”

He let out a loud roar, emitting a devil-like aura. Purple light illuminated heaven and earth, and his divine might surpassed the rest of the world. He took a step forward and arrived in front of Lu Song, blasting out a fist as heavy as a mountain.

“Brat, you’re arrogant!” Lyu Song was furious and immediately stabbed out with his sword. The power of a top-grade True Weapon was also extraordinary.

When the two collided, they heard a “boom”. The entire hall shook and many tiles fell.

Lu Song let out a miserable scream and was directly blasted out of the hall by this punch. The fresh blood he spat out drifted in the air.

The might of a single punch could not even stop a Xiantian 5th layer expert! Although Li Qing’s fist was injured, it recovered in the blink of an eye.

The three messengers couldn’t help but be shocked. Their gazes at Li Qing were filled with fear. Was this fellow really this powerful? Unexpectedly, even Elder Lu, who was holding a top-grade True Artifact, was no match for him!

Of course, there were strong and weak in the fifth level of the Xiantian realm. Lu Song was considered the weaker one, so he was suppressed by Li Qing.

“So powerful! No wonder we were able to sweep across many forces. The green mountains are unchanging, and the green waters are flowing. Let’s wait and see!” Lyu Song was injured by a punch, and he was already frightened to the point that he had no fighting spirit. He actually directly escaped, leaving behind only a ruthless sentence.

The three messengers in the hall couldn’t help but feel their scalps go numb. Even Elder Lu ran away. How could they dare to stay for too long? They stammered, “Since that’s the case, then we’ll stay for a while. Goodbye!”

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Li Qing snorted coldly, “Baifu City and Wanqing City, remember, within three days, prepare 20,000 spirit stones and send them to Jiangyuan City. Otherwise, I will definitely take the dog’s life of your City Lord!”

“I will definitely convey your words to the City Lord as they are.” The two messengers obediently replied, not daring to put on airs anymore.

“Let me give you a ride!” Li Qing waved his hand and swept them out of the hall.
