Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 296: At Your Disposal!

"So what if I bully you?"

Xiao Yi’s face bore a playful expression as he faced the fierce wind and flying rocks without even blinking, speaking in a neither servile nor overbearing tone.

Nangong Shengtian’s face stiffened: "..."

After all, he was the venerable ancestor of the Nangong Family, a master of the Dharma Manifestation Realm.

Even Emperor Qian had to address him as Ancestor Nangong.

Who had ever dared to belittle and provoke him like this?

Boom!

Nangong Shengtian stomped fiercely, and the ground trembled thunderously as if a dragon were turning beneath it. Fissures spread from beneath his feet towards Xiao Yi, and terrifying surges of earth formed spikes thrusting straight at Xiao Yi and those beside him, including Li Youruo.

"Master, be careful!" Li Youruo’s face changed drastically, ready to intervene.

Xiao Yi raised his hand to signal her not to panic.

Hum!

Xiao Yi tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, half of his sole sinking into the earth, followed by an explosive burst of ferocious power from within his body, like the waters of a river rushing into the open sea, surging beneath the ground.

Boom!

Rumble!

The entire ground vibrated around Xiao Yi as a center, wave after wave of terrifying energy pulsating outward in deafening explosions towards what lay ahead.

The two waves of earth collided with a crash.

Bang bang bang!

The two waves kept smashing against each other, grinding the other down, while at the point of collision, mounds of earth and rocks piled up.

One zhang.

Two zhang.

Three zhang...

When the turbulent energy on the ground had dissipated, the earth wave halted two meters in front of Xiao Yi, having formed a small mountain of earth and stone ten zhang high as a result of their collision.

"Nangong Shengtian, I came to the Nangong Family in good faith, hoping to seek cooperation. Even if you refuse to cooperate, I would have voiced no complaints," Xiao Yi said, leaping onto the summit of the earthen mountain and looking down at Nangong Shengtian from on high. "However, Nangong Jian has severely injured my men, Yan Mingli and Xue Bufan, even breaking their arms. Do you still think the blame lies on me today?"

The surrounding crowd, having heard Xiao Yi’s words, whispered among themselves: "So there are these reasons behind the incident. If that’s the case, indeed the Nangong Family is in the wrong!"

"The Nangong Family may be large and powerful, but the Xiaoshanhe Institute is not to be trifled with. Nangong Jian’s actions are an insult to the Xiaoshanhe Institute and Xiao Yi, no wonder he is so enraged!"

"The fault lies with the Nangong..."

"Nangong Jian deserves it!"

The crowd spoke one after another.

These murmurs reached Nangong Shengtian’s ears, causing his expression to flicker and turning his face extremely ugly.

Indeed, they did not have a leg to stand on in this matter.

However...

Nangong Shengtian had long been accustomed to acting tyrannically.

His face was thick with mockery as he sneered, "Xiao Yi, who doesn’t know that for the sole purpose of dominating Xiaoshanhe Institute, you drove out Chen Shuiwen and all his associates. How could my Nangong Family possibly cooperate with someone like you, a petty person who will stop at nothing to exclude others for your own selfish desires?"

"Exclude others?"

Xiao Yi smiled faintly and replied, "That’s an internal matter of Xiaoshanhe Institute. Since when does the Nangong Family have to consider such things in their business dealings?"

"I am good friends with Chen Shuiwen. Over the years, Chen Shuiwen and my Nangong Family have had a very harmonious collaboration. You expelled him from Xiaoshanhe Institute; I can’t trust you, and naturally, I won’t work with you!"

Nangong Shengtian’s figure slowly rose until he was eye-level with Xiao Yi and said with a mocking tone, "I’m not afraid to tell you that Chen Shuiwen has already allied with various forces, preparing to build a new Martial Arts Institute to contend against your Xiaoshanhe Institute. My Nangong Family will enter into comprehensive cooperation with him, providing all of our elixirs at a mere thirty percent of the market price. You must be quite furious now, aren’t you? Hahaha..."

Xiao Yi’s expression changed ever so slightly.

He hadn’t expected Nangong Shengtian to be so willing to sell to Chen Shuiwen at merely thirty percent of the market price.

That was almost no profit at all!

Xiao Yi took a deep breath and scoffed, "Nangong Shengtian, don’t tell me you really think the Nangong Family can cover the sky with one hand? In the vast Great Qian Dynasty, I refuse to believe that, apart from you, there isn’t another power daring to sell elixirs to us!"

"Hahaha, sorry, but in the elixir industry, my Nangong Family indeed can cover the sky with one hand!" Nangong Shengtian said pridefully, "With just one word from me, throughout the entire Great Qian Dynasty, you won’t be able to obtain even the lowest-grade Blood Qi Elixir. You must be really angry now, right? Hahaha, young man, trying to fight me? You’re still too green!"

Seeing Xiao Yi remain silent,

"Ladies and gentlemen, the former vice dean of Xiaoshanhe Institute, Chen Shuiwen, accompanied by all instructors and disciples, is about to establish a brand-new Martial Arts Institute."

Nangong Shengtian looked around at everyone, his voice amplified with vital energy, deep and resonant, echoing between heaven and earth: "At that time, both the Nangong Family and the Beitang Family will fully support Chen Shuiwen. If you wish for your children to have access to the best resources, you may consider joining Chen Shuiwen’s Martial Arts Institute, and definitely avoid a place like Xiaoshanhe Institute, which is fraught with scheming and discord, ostracizes others, and can’t even supply its own elixirs..."

"A new Martial Arts Institute?"

"With support from both the Nangong and Beitang families, the resources of this new institute will undoubtedly be impressive!"

"Xiaoshanhe Institute has been decaying over the years, and now having lost all its instructors, it has been cut off from the elixir resources by the Nangong Family. If we join them, we probably won’t even be able to satisfy the most basic cultivation needs!"

Everyone joined in the chorus.

The voices that prophesied doom for Xiaoshanhe Institute grew more and more numerous, louder and louder.

Nangong Shengtian’s face was filled with smugness as he provocatively looked at Xiao Yi, "See? Just with one word, I can bring you down, kid. When a praying mantis tries to stop a chariot, it’s on a path to certain death! Of course, if you kneel down and beg me now, I might just agree to supply some elixirs to you at twice the market price out of sheer mercy!"

"Master..."

Li Youruo looked at Xiao Yi with concern.

Xiao Yi waved his hand.

Whoosh!

He exhaled a long breath of turbid air, fixing his gaze on Nangong Shengtian: "Nangong Shengtian, I did not wish to be your enemy, but since you insist on being aggressive, then I, Xiao Yi, have no choice but to take up this challenge. You pride yourself on the Nangong Family being able to cover the sky with one hand in the Great Qian Dynasty? One month..."

Xiao Yi held up a finger.

The cold light in his eyes was piercing as he stared at Nangong Shengtian and enunciated, "Within one month, I will force all the Nangong Family pharmacies to shut down and cease business."

"What?"

Nangong Shengtian was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "Have you lost your mind, beginning to spout nonsense? Let alone one month, even if I gave you a hundred years, a thousand years, you wouldn’t be able to shake the Nangong Family!"

"Don’t believe it? Let’s try!" Xiao Yi challenged.

"Hmph, I’m not afraid of you!"

Nangong Shengtian sneered, "If you really can make the Nangong Family Pharmacy close within one month, my Nangong Family will willingly provide all elixir resources to your Xiaoshanhe Institute free of charge. But, if you fail, what then?"

Xiao Yi’s words rang out firmly, "At your disposal!"
