Super Soldier in the City
Chapter 2311 - 2375: Who’s Seeking Death?
"Hehe, what a pity, what a pity, seeking your own death!" The Second Elder shook his head and said regretfully.
Li Yifei raised his hand to rub his face, seemingly a bit annoyed by this remark, and responded, "Old man, how old are you this year?"
Hmm? The Second Elder obviously didn’t expect Li Yifei to respond like this. After a brief pause, he said, "It seems you are in a hurry to die."
"Anyone can talk big, but you have to actually be able to kill me!" Li Yifei chuckled lightly after he finished speaking, then said, "But Clan Leader Zhao, I want to ask if today’s matter is reasonable on my part. After being framed like this, can I not come to the Zhao Family to demand an explanation? What do you mean by calling out these two coffin dodgers? So, is this how the Zhao Family operates, not apologizing when in the wrong and instead reprimanding those who were wronged? If that’s the case, I have nothing more to say. If you want to play shameless, I’ll keep you company!"
Li Yifei’s voice carried far. Some Zhao Family people didn’t come out and instead hid inside the houses to peek, but they all heard Li Yifei’s words. Naturally, they were puzzled, wondering what had happened to make this outsider speak this way.
Old Master Zhao’s eyelid twitched. If it was just several elders and him, he might have just waved his hand and let the First and Second Elders eliminate Li Yifei, but with the descendants present, such handling would indeed be inappropriate!
"Li Yifei, don’t speak recklessly. We have already dealt with the person who harmed you. Now we have to discuss your intrusion into the Zhao Family estate!"
"Has anyone apologized to me?" Li Yifei asked.
No one, naturally there was no one. But why should the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky apologize to others? The Zhao Family is just this domineering and arrogant, who can say no to them? Now Li Yifei actually came over to force them to apologize. Not to mention the Zhao Family people, even Old Master Zhao couldn’t help but snort heavily, saying, "Boy, you are too arrogant!"
"No, no, I’m just here to demand an explanation. You’ve done something wrong, give me an explanation. What’s to be dealt with should be dealt with, what needs an apology should be apologized for, and I will return. But now there’s not even an apology? Clan Leader Zhao, that’s not how things should be done!" Li Yifei said.
"Enough with the nonsense, you want an apology, is that it? I can tell you, no. Now I want you to give the Zhao Family an explanation. Trespassing the Zhao Family is the greatest disrespect to the Zhao Family!" The steward shouted at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei laughed heartily and immediately replied, "So, trespassing the Zhao Family is the greatest disrespect to them? This is a novel explanation, I thought cursing the Zhao ancestors was disrespectful. Of course, I’m a cultured and refined person, I naturally wouldn’t do such a thing!"
"First Elder! Second Elder, please take action and teach this insolent thief a lesson!" Old Master Zhao finally tore off his facade, instead of arguing with Li Yifei, he turned around and cupped his fist towards the two elders.
Seeing the other party’s decision, Li Yifei also made a judgment in his heart. This old man must understand him as well, knowing that without summoning equally skilled experts, he wouldn’t be able to contain him today. So, he called out the two reclusive elders, as other elders aren’t enough to deal with him!
But would he be afraid? Li Yifei had to shake his head. He wasn’t afraid because Li Yifei had also anticipated such a scenario. Thinking of being able to challenge two strong opponents, possibly experts of Murong Yuanqing’s level, Li Yifei, instead of feeling fear, was filled with excitement. If a fight ensued, it would undoubtedly be a Life-and-Death Battle, and Li Yifei would not hold back, nor would the two on the opposing side, most likely. So, this kind of battle was the kind Li Yifei truly craved – a rare experience.
Retreating one step, even if he couldn’t win the fight, could Li Yifei not escape? If he was determined to run, let alone facing two experts, even if another one or two came, Li Yifei believed he could still escape unless the opponents were specialized in legwork with extremely swift feet.
Therefore, Li Yifei wasn’t very worried, but rather was full of confidence and felt entirely capable of taking down these two, at least one of them.
Of course, how things would play out still depended on the fight.
Having received the request from Old Master Zhao, both the First Elder and the Second Elder nodded simultaneously. The First Elder’s gaze was icy and, if seen by ordinary people, would have overwhelmed them long ago. Unfortunately, they met Li Yifei, who was almost unaffected, while the Second Elder said, "Big sister, I’ll take care of him!"
"Alright, I’ll leave it to you, second brother!" The First Elder nodded, and having gained permission, the Second Elder’s aura suddenly changed. Nearby, the steward began calling the Zhao Family young generation to retreat and clear the plaza. Since the extent of the destruction such high-level experts would cause during a fight was unknown, it was wise to stay back.
"The Zhao Family is truly shameless. I’m experiencing it firsthand today, hehe. But it’s nothing new. Before coming here, I predicted the Zhao Family would be shameless. That’s fine; let’s have a fight. When a few people die, your apology will be more sincere!" Li Yifei laughed wildly, appearing very arrogant.
Across from him, Old Master Zhao looked extremely displeased, while the Second Elder strode forward with anger on his face and said to Li Yifei, "Don’t be quick with words; since you are an Innate Expert, I won’t count it as bullying the young. Once you’re ready, we’ll see the real deal!"
They all know I’m an Innate Expert, Li Yifei thought to himself, responding, "Fine, since you shamelessly said it, even if I disagree, you won’t stop. Looking at your age, at least a hundred years older than me, since you said you won’t bully the young, don’t blame me for bullying the elderly!"
"Sharp-tongued kid, I want to see exactly what you are so arrogant about. Did you think you were invincible after gaining some cultivation by chance?" The Second Elder’s gaze was icy cold, with a chilling aura spreading in the air. It was a peculiar feeling, as if the air became very viscous, even making Li Yifei have to use True Qi to resist.
Indeed, it’s a bit sinister, Li Yifei thought about the strange aura he sensed from the two people earlier.
Using True Qi to block the other party’s aura, Li Yifei simultaneously unleashed his own presence. Everyone’s presence differs, related to their cultivation, and Li Yifei’s was more domineering, a just and honorable kind of imposing presence. Once released, it felt like a domain, affecting everyone within it, including the Zhao Family young generation, whose faces all changed drastically. Although they already had some understanding of Li Yifei, they were still amazed by his capability. How old is he now, requiring the First and Second Elders to deal with him, and his aura is too fierce.
Many people had to continue retreating, exiting the range of the presence. Otherwise, they felt a heavy pressure on their hearts, extremely uncomfortable.
This was intentionally done by Li Yifei; otherwise, he wouldn’t need to release such a wide range. The steward and Old Master Zhao also felt this pressure, showing surprise on their faces.
Without exchanging words, both knew what the other wanted to say. The gathered intel had errors, as Li Yifei was even more formidable than described, almost on par with the First and Second Elders.
This child is already an adversary; seeing his arrogant demeanor today, if not eliminated, he would be a major threat if he returns in the future. Old Master Zhao thought from his family’s perspective and said to the Second Elder, who had his back to him, "Please, Second Elder, do not hold back; kill him in this battle!"
Li Yifei’s gaze passed over the Second Elder, locking on Old Master Zhao from dozens of meters away, as if two sharp swords had suddenly shot over. The old man couldn’t help but sway his body, attempting to dodge those two swords.
Two seconds later, Old Master Zhao realized there were no swords, he had just been bluffed by Li Yifei.
"What, you were going to teach me a lesson just now, and now you’re simply going to kill me? Clan Leader Zhao, you shouldn’t be so fickle. Moreover, do you know what price your Zhao Family will pay to kill me?" Li Yifei said coldly.
"No matter the price, you cannot leave!" Old Master Zhao said coldly.
The Zhao Family, both supporting Old Master Zhao’s decision and secretly sweating, had not seen anyone who forced Old Master Zhao to make such a resolution for many years. It was evident that Li Yifei was indeed powerful, not just the newly risen clan chief described in previous intel.
Heartfelt enemy, formidable opponent. The Zhao Family has to reassess Li Yifei.
But, would Li Yifei fight a battle he wasn’t confident in? Maybe, but absolutely not now. He already understood that the chilling aura he senses is the Second Elder’s presence, different from his own. To distinguish, one could say the Second Elder’s presence is more sinister, seemingly not legitimate.
Sly it may be, but not strong enough! Li Yifei closed his eyes, took a few breaths, and adjusted to peak condition. The coming battle would be a great war, and Li Yifei wouldn’t allow himself to fail. Charging in arrogantly, Li Yifei didn’t want to be beaten into defeat, as that would create significant changes. Today, Li Yifei was here to resolve trouble.
There are many ways to resolve trouble; Li Yifei chose the more direct, but not necessarily simple method. If this battle were fought and Li Yifei stood last, there would be no doubt that the Li family’s reputation nationwide would skyrocket. In the future, if anyone wanted to trouble the Li family, they would first have to consider Li Yifei’s existence.
The prerequisite is Li Yifei must win!
"If that’s the case, don’t blame me for disrespecting the elderly. Old man, make your move, life and death disregarded!" Li Yifei said in a deep voice.
The Second Elder’s eyes glowed sharply, obviously gathering strength in secret. Hearing Li Yifei’s words, the Second Elder grinned wickedly, raising his hands; his fingers reddened, with a hint of a bloody scent in the air.
Truly sinister, Li Yifei frowned, just as he was about to speak, the Second Elder suddenly lunged forward like a ghost, extremely fast, with a series of air-popping sounds.
