Emperor's Domination

The atmosphere became slightly awkward since the apex emperors didn’t wish to make a move. It would be a different story if someone else were to start, then they could make their move. After all, the rules of the jungle applied here - bigger fish eating smaller fish, and then the biggest fish eating everything.

By not being the first to act, one could put on the guise of justice and punish the cultivators who had just robbed and killed Li Qiye. The scales would become theirs through moralistic means.

Thus, it became a waiting game and none wanted to leave.

“Sigh, let me get this started.” Li Qiye said: “Here’s something you don’t realize either, you all cannot even rob me given your skills. Make a move and find yourselves dead without a grave.”

Silence took over after the disdainful declaration. There were apex emperors and powerful desolate gods present; Li Qiye had offended them all.

“You dare to run your mouth here?!” An ancestor shouted.

“This is too much, just the apex emperors alone are enough to kill him.” A big shot who had a high evaluation of Li Qiye shook her head.

“Let him run his mouth, it’s the fastest road to death.” A regional lord sneered.

The stalemate was finally broken. Perhaps someone would make a move and seize the scales. The more chaotic, the more opportunities.

She didn’t make a move because despite being a mortal, he had done things that not even primal ancestors could. She wanted to be sure before doing anything reckless.

“Not a matter of confidence, it’s just not difficult killing a few chickens and dogs.” Li Qiye nonchalantly responded.

“Hahaha!” Dragon Pond laughed from being too angry.

He obtained the fewest scales out of the top cultivators, not to mention Golden Flower taking him down a notch during his entrance. He was furious the entire time and now, this mortal clown wanted to make fun of him as well.

The others remained calm but he lost it.

“Such arrogance is unprecedented to me since my dao debut. So you view emperors as chickens and dogs?” He said.

“That is correct.” Li Qiye smiled: “That is my view toward emperors, especially one who thinks he’s the strongest now with only nine fruits, a mere elementary level.”

Dragon Pond turned red and nearly vomited blood. Nevertheless, he quelled his desire to smash this mortal to mincemeat.

The crowd exclaimed upon hearing Li Qiye’s sharp evaluation. Sure, Dragon Pond only had nine fruits but he still towered over the crowd. He was only weak compared to Golden Flower or Witch King Emperor.

“Emperors, please kill this ignorant brat.” They started yelling.

They aspired to become an emperor or desolate god one day. Therefore, they viewed powerful cultivators as sacred role models.

Li Qiye’s blatant disrespect toward these beings was the same as trampling on their dream - an act deserving of death.

While others were enraged, Witch King and Golden Flower contemplated the statement. The imperial level was indeed elementary in the grand scheme of things.

As for Dragon Pond, he was blinded by rage today and lost his normal composure. He didn’t dare to act against Golden Flower but the same couldn’t be said about this mortal - a mere insect. His eyes gleamed with murderous intent.

“It looks like you have a death wish. If others do not wish to kill you, I will to avenge my descendant.” Ouyang Dragon God scowled.

“Good, finally, revenge is a perfect reason. You can kill me and take the dragon scales, two birds with one arrow, not doing so would be foolish.” Li Qiye clapped.

“I don’t care what bullshit comes out of your mouth, I will kill you today.” Ouyang Dragon God had an ugly expression.

Having said that, he jumped off his peak and landed before Li Qiye.

As a stately desolate god, he no longer cared about face and wanted to make a move. This was a positive development for the rest of the crowd.

“This place will be your grave, any last words?” He asked.

“Do you want to kill me or seize the scales?” Li Qiye was in no hurry.

“You don’t need to worry about it since you’ll be dead then.” He responded coldly.
