The Emperor Reigns Them All-Chapter 510 - Not Regret

Chapter 510 Not Regret

Since Zhao Batian’s followers were discovered in the area, it meant that Zhao Batian must be near. Although Li Ye did not know that these demons were on a mission to kill him, he decided to meet them. After all, they had worked together before.

So he came over.

But he did not expect that he would overhear Zhao Batian and Zhao Dengke conspiring to kill him.

The sparrow heard the voices first. His hearing was just as acute as his speed. Otherwise the tiger demon of Star Pavilion would not have sent him to keep Li Ye under surveillance.

So Li Ye came over with his cultivators.

Zhao Batian did not seem angry when he saw Li Yi. He wanted to recruit Li Ye before. But right now he must have Li Ye’s head to improve his situation. He had to brace himself.

Zhao Batian bellowed, “You tricked me and swindled me out of my magic treasures. I won’t arm-wrestle with you this time. I will defeat you!”

Then he bristled at Zhao Dengke, “What are you waiting for? Go!”

Zhao Dengke rose to the sky, the anger burning in his eyes. “I will have your head since you are so eager to die!”

Li Ye sneered and gestured with his fingers, “Kill them all.”

He said this to the panther demon. Zhao Dengke was at Taiyi Real Immortal Realm. There was no need for him to fight this demon himself. As a cultivator who aimed to be an emperor, he believed that it was important for him to learn to command his forces.

The panther demon had a vicious smile and slammed into Zhao Dengke and so did White Wolf. The proud Master White Wolf would never tolerate his enemies being so arrogant.

The panther demon traded a strike with Zhao Dengke first and the panther demon’s fist made Zhao Dengke spit out a mouthful of blood. His face was overwhelmed with astonishment. “Taiyi Real Immortal Realm? How could you have a cultivator at that level ?!”

Zhao Dengke remembered very well that no one around Li Ye was this powerful!

Li Ye did not even bother to answer this question.

White Wolf slashed at his foe with his sword, “And he is not the only one who is at this level!”

Zhao Dengke was almost scared to death when he felt White Wolf’s power.

Zhao Dengke could not even flee under the combined onslaught of the panther demon and the White Wolf. Soon he was seriously wounded by the panther demon’s relentless fists. Then White Wolf ended his life by chopping his head off.

The panther demon cast White Wolf a glance of dissatisfaction, “You took Xu Beiwang’s head and now you took our enemy’s head again?”

White Wolf snorted arrogantly, “I never waste my strength.”

The panther demon snapped at him, “If you do it again, I will not be that civil to you!”

In truth, White Wolf was at a lower level than the panther demon. But he could not let himself be shamed. He managed to sound arrogant as he said, “Then you must be faster next time!”

The panther demon also had a massive ego. He became even angrier when seeing White Wolf acting in this manner. But he did not dare to cross the line while Li Ye was here. Almost all of the demons felt proud of themselves. They were known for their arrogance.

The strong would seldom be very polite in front of the weak, which was a trait shared among the demons. Hence, they worshipped the strong very much, especially Li Ye, who could defeat enemies who were at a higher level than him.

While White Wolf was having a little spat with the panther demon, Zhao Batian was shaking with fear. When they were attacking Zhao Dengke, Zhao Batian was attacked by some other cultivator from Zhenjiang City. But before they could approach him, the Duchess, Hong Xiu and the proprietress stopped them.Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com

After Zhao Dengke, the strongest of them, was killed, all of them would soon be slaughtered. After all, the White Wolf and the panther demon did not stop their killing even when they were quarreling with each other.

Those cultivators who fled from the Immortals were all very powerful. But they died anyway without Li Ye having to lift a finger.

How could this not terrify Zhao Batian?

He tried to flee when he sensed danger. But the sparrow stood in his way. Though this creature was not good at fighting, it would be insane if he could not defeat a cultivator of Sky Immortal Realm. After all, he was at the level of Real Immortal Realm.

After being hit by the Immortal’s Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocation, Zhao Batian took another blow from the sparrow’s wings. He spat out some teeth and blood and fell back to where he was before.

Li Ye came up to this terrified demon who was huddled like a frightened animal. He smiled and said, “Childe Zhao, I heard that you are very eager to kill me?”

Zhao Batian could barely speak because of his chattering teeth. “No… Never! Childe Li, I bear no ill intention toward you. I truly want your services. But my father ordered me to kill you and I have to obey him. Childe Li, please spare my life!”

Li Ye sighed and sounded bored when he saw Zhao Batian in this state, “Just go.”

Zhao Batian’s mind went blank for a moment. Then he asked in stunned disbelief, “You are letting me go? You really don’t want to kill me?”

Li Ye waved his hands and said, “It will do me no good to kill you. Just go back to Zhenjiang City and keep cultivating. It will be a long journey if you want to achieve your goals.”

Indeed, Li Ye had no intention of killing Zhao Batian. There was no feud between them. Besides, he swindled this demon out of so many magic treasures and Dan Pills.

Zhao Batian behaved badly and often bullied the female demons in his group, so Li Ye did not feel guilty about swindling him. But he had never heard of this demon killing someone out of anger. He just seemed to like bossing people around.

So Li Ye did not hate him.

In Li Ye’s eyes, Zhao Batian was like a child.

If he was not occupied with something else, he might abduct this man and ask Sun Bofu to pay for his son’s ransom. But now he needed to go to Macaque Mountain. He did not have the energy for this trivial matter.

Of course, what was most important for Li Ye was that he had taken all of Zhao Batian’s storage bags, so he would barely get any more by killing this demon. He came here to pursue his plan and the less he killed, the better it would be.Read More chapter on our vi pnovel. com

So many people had died because of Li Ye during his war. No matter if they were his enemies or the soldiers from Ping Lu, he had been trying to lessen the death toll.

That was the mercy an emperor should have.

Zhao Batian lurched to his feet and instantly fled. When he was in midair and did not find any trace of Li Ye behind him, he finally believed that Li Ye had no intention of killing him.

Zhao Batian turned around and pondered for a moment. Then he saluted Li Ye and said seriously, “I don’t know why a Great Cultivator of Taiyi Real Immortal Realm is willing to follow you or how you reversed the situation in Blackstone Mountain. But I am sure that it is not because you have a father who is a lord. Though I am not a hero, I know that you are no ordinary man. There is something special about you… I just don’t know what it is yet.”

“My father once said a male demon will truly start growing when he looks up to another male demon. Though you are not a demon, I will remember and I will surpass you sooner or later. Don’t worry. When I get back to Zhenjiang City, I will convince my father not to kill you.”

Then Zhao Batian flew away in a hurry without looking back. He seemed to be afraid that Li Ye might regret his decision.

A quiet smile touched Li Ye’s lips when he heard what Zhao Batian said.

Zhao Batian’s petulance would never make other demons who were bullied by him think that he was cute. In fact, Li Ye did not agree that a naughty child should get away without being punished just because he or she was just a kid.

Most of humans were naughty when they were kids. At the very least they had done something naughty before they matured. But they would only judge others when they grew up and forget about the things they had done.

Many people would laugh at their immaturity of their childhood, but Li Ye would not.

What he was made of is what he is now. If one should laugh at his old self, does it mean that he would be mocked by his future self? When will it come to an end？ Until his death? Li Ye believed that it was meaningless to deny his life.

Li Ye did not know what Zhao Batian would be like in the future. He did not care about it. He only knew that he would not regret this decision of letting him go.

Even if Zhao Batian made no attempt to convince his father when he returned.

“Come on. Let us keep moving!” Li Ye waved at the cultivators and flew into the sky first.

The panther demon traded a glance with White Wolf. Compared with the proprietress and Hong Xiu, they knew less about Li Ye. But they both thought Li Ye made the right decision. But then they recalled that they just had a quarrel. Then they snorted and turned their heads aside.

Since Macaque Mountain was at the east, Li Ye and the crowd soon left the mountain.

There would always be a small town at the start of a trail to a mountain. After all, the demons needed a market when they were about to hunt in the mountains.

But Li Ye did not see a town except for a village, where there were about a dozen of families living there. Miles of land stretched out in front of them. It seemed that the villagers would have a good harvest this year. Since it was still early, they could still see the wisps of smoke drifting above their huts. They heard the faint barks from the dogs. The scene seemed so peaceful to them.

“It looks like a village of mortals.” Li Ye descended first.

There was a brook in front of the village. It was shallow and clear. Beside it grew bundles of reeds. A young girl dressed plainly was washing clothes beside the brook. It was a quiet scene to behold.

However, suddenly a seemingly vicious hand rose from the water and reached out to this pretty girl.
