Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 645: The Confidence of the Flame Martial Guard
Chapter 645: Chapter 645: The Confidence of the Flame Martial Guard
The banquet at the East Sea lasted for five full days before it concluded.
Teams from various kingdoms and Martial Arts Holy Lands began to depart one after another.
However, those Heavenly Talents who achieved commendable positions during the East Sea Festival were allowed to stay and cultivate there.
As the first-place winner of the East Sea Festival, Xiao Yi naturally had the qualification to stay.
But he did not.
He did not follow the Sword Sect team either.
Instead, he alone escorted two miserable figures and flew away, controlling the air.
Those two were none other than the Flame Martial King and Bai Mohan.
These men had their cultivation sealed by a woman earlier, so Xiao Yi easily bound them with just a wave of his Primordial Power.
Of course, even if their cultivation wasn’t sealed, with Xiao Yi’s current strength, he didn’t consider these two any threat at all.
After leaving the barrier of the East Sea, Xiao Yi flew continuously.
Once he had flown past the East Six Counties, he headed north.
During the journey, the Flame Martial King and Bai Mohan were anything but quiet.
"Xiao Yi, I am the king of the Flame Martial Kingdom, the ruler of this kingdom."
"What right do you have to kidnap me so forcibly?"
The Flame Martial King spoke indignantly with a face full of outrage.
Xiao Yi remained silent.
Since the Divine Martial King had handed them over to Xiao Yi for disposal, Xiao Yi could deal with them as he pleased.
"Xiao Yi, spare my life, and I will agree to anything you want."
"Just make your demands."
The Flame Martial King, having abandoned his cursing, now pleaded.
Xiao Yi continued to fly rapidly, coldly saying, "I want nothing but your lives."
"You..." The Flame Martial King wanted to say more.
"Forget it, king," Bai Mohan interrupted, "Xiao Yi is ruthless and brutal. If he wants to kill us, he won’t be lenient."
Xiao Yi’s expression was icy, but he said little else.
He simply continued to bind the two and flew swiftly.
Behind him, the Flame Martial King and Bai Mohan exchanged a glance, their eyes fierce.
"Xiao Yi, don’t be too complacent," the Flame Martial King said with a cold smile.
"This is the Flame Martial Kingdom, and I am the king here."
"If you release us now, we can shake hands and make peace; bygones can be bygones."
"Otherwise, if you continue to be obstinate, don’t blame me, the king, for being rude."
Xiao Yi remained silent, unsure where the Flame Martial King still drew his confidence from.
But he was too lazy to think more about it.
Time gradually passed.
He flew northward, and as he was about to reach Ice and Snow County, he realized something.
Whoosh...whoosh...whoosh...
Around him, nearly ten thousand figures rose into the air, instantly surrounding the area. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
The newcomers, all in uniform attire, moved in a coordinated and efficient manner.
Clearly, they were a well-trained team.
"Flame Martial Guard," Xiao Yi frowned as he looked at the nearly ten thousand martial artists.
Among them, the leader was naturally the Great Commander.
Followed by five True Commanders, including Yee Xiu and others; 25 Deputy Commanders, including Lin Chong and others.
Surely, from the Heavenly Origin Realm down to the Mystic Breakthrough Realm, 25 bases had arrived.
"Xiao Yi, do you know what you’re doing?" the Great Commander called out sharply.
"Kidnapping the king in the territory of the Flame Martial Kingdom, this is rebellion."
Xiao Yi scoffed, "He’s no longer the king."
The Great Commander coldly said, "There’s no need for further discussion. Release the king immediately or don’t blame us for being rude."
As the Great Commander finished speaking,
more figures appeared below.
"City Guards," Xiao Yi scoffed dismissively.
Indeed, tens of thousands of City Guards had gathered below.
Each one was armed with a crossbow arrow and some potent Subspirit Artifacts.
These Subspirit Artifacts were only used when defending against the Beast Tide.
"So this is your confidence," Xiao Yi turned to glance at Bai Mohan and the Flame Martial King.
Bai Mohan sneered, "Xiao Yi, I know you’re powerful."
"All the Flame Martial Guards combined might still not match you."
"Is it really necessary to go on a killing spree, and tarnish your reputation?"
"Do you think I dare not?" Xiao Yi sneered playfully.
After speaking, Xiao Yi looked coldly towards the Great Commander and others in front of him.
"Step back, after all, we are comrades-in-arms and friends."
"Don’t force me to kill."
The expressions of the Great Commander and Yee Xiu, among others, were icy cold.
The Great Commander raised his hand coldly, "Archers, get ready."
Hiss...
Below, tens of thousands of archers uniformly drew their crossbows.
"Flame Martial Guards, prepare."
"Ha!" In the sky, nearly ten thousand Flame Martial Guards shouted loudly as they wielded their weapons simultaneously.
Xiao Yi frowned.
The Flame Martial Guard were the strongest elite martial artists under the King’s command, completely loyal to the King.
The Flame Martial King had held his position for over a century.
Over the years, he naturally had absolute prestige.
"Captain, let’s stop," a trembling voice said at this moment.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi looked in the direction of the voice, "Ziyang... Zhou Ping..."
The Flame Martial Guards had obviously all been mobilized.
Even the ordinary members were present.
Zhou Ping, Zhou Ziyang, and others were notably Xiao Yi’s former squad members.
The icy expression on Xiao Yi’s face slightly faded.
"Ziyang, do you remember what I said before?"
"I said that perhaps one day, we might become enemies."
Zhou Ping, Zhou Ziyang, and others, although also holding weapons,
Their faces were filled with a mixture of conflicted, helpless, and sad emotions.
"Captain, you’re not a despicable man in Ziyang’s heart."
"Could it be, we are the ones in the wrong?"
Zhou Ziyang’s tone was hesitant, his eyes filled with confusion.
Yes, confusion.
For Zhou Ziyang, he felt very confused.
The Captain Xiao Yi he knew was a man worthy of his utmost respect, admiration, and worship.
But concurrently, he was also thoroughly convinced by the strict rules of the Flame Martial Guards.
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "I also said, in this world, there is no absolute right or wrong."
"Ziyang, don’t think too much, don’t be confused, follow your heart."
Zhou Ziyang was once the youngest member of his squad.
"Follow one’s heart..." Zhou Ziyang muttered to himself.
Xiao Yi stopped speaking.
Behind him, the Flame Martial King sneered, "Xiao Yi, if you release our King, I am willing to offer you a position of reverence."
"Not... even on equal footing with me."
Xiao Yi shook his head, his eyes returned to the Great Commander and others, "Will you truly not retreat?"
Beside the Great Commander, a True Commander shouted loudly, "Xiao Yi, you dare kidnap the King, do you have the audacity of a bear and the guts of a leopard?"
The speaker was Wan Jianyi.
"Wan Jianyi, I had almost forgotten about you," Xiao Yi’s eyes turned cold.
After the Sect Master and eight elders of the Sword Sect openly rebelled, Wan Jianyi had also left the sect.
Whoosh...
Xiao Yi’s figure flashed, instantly disappearing from the spot.
"Hmm?" The Great Commander’s pupils tightened, "Such quick speed, an Extreme Realm Expert?"
Whoosh...
When Xiao Yi reappeared, he had already unleashed a Sword Qi, ending Wan Jianyi’s life.
"Xiao Yi, you..." The Great Commander’s face changed.
Xiao Yi coldly said, "Killing Wan Jianyi, I consider it cleansing the sect."
"As for you, when the new King takes over, he will deal with you."
Having said that, Xiao Yi waved his hand, a terrifying Spiritual Energy Restriction fell.
The nearly ten thousand Flame Martial Guards in the sky and tens of thousands of City Guards below were instantly restrained.
Then, Xiao Yi turned around, no longer looking at the martial artists present, his figure flashed, and taking Bai Mohan, he flew away controlling the air.
...
The second update.
