What Li Gu said had absolutely no basis. Even the most brainless person understood that this Elder from the Li Family wanted to rob and plunder by force.
Instantly, everyone present revealed expressions of anger. Qin Yichen was their Thousand Mist Empire’s pride. The Compound Pill was also their Thousand Mist Empire’s achievement. How could they watch it being plundered right before their eyes!?
Everyone’s gazes toward An Cangye and the An Family members were filled with rage.
This was something An Cangye had never expected.
A mere Qin Yichen not only brought out the Thousand Mist Guardian Yang Quan, but even the Lord came forward to protect him.
Regardless of the outcome, his An Family was destined for a bad end.
In the Thousand Mist Empire, there would no longer be a place for his An Family to stand!
“Utterly ridiculous.” Qin Yichen sneered, still maintaining a calm expression under Li Gu’s imposing pressure as he spoke clearly and logically, “If it’s something your Li Family created, how could I, a mere Martial Grandmaster, have stolen it?”
This was nonsense.
Even a Martial King would not dare say they could steal anything from the Li Family, so how could a Martial Grandmaster accomplish what a Martial King could not?
Under Qin Yichen’s questioning, Li Gu’s face alternated between green and white, no longer able to maintain his composure.
“Insolent brat, I’ll capture you first!” He shouted coldly, suddenly moving to grab Qin Yichen.
“Don’t you dare!” Liang Hongsheng and Yang Quan both moved simultaneously to block him.
“Xiao Black, Xiao White, bite that bad guy!” Just then, a crisp voice rang out from behind Qin Yichen, filled with annoyance and disgust.
However, after these words fell, the two ‘small beasts’ that had been crouching suddenly sprang into action.
*Roar!* This cry belonged to Xiao Hei, its roar shaking the Heavens, causing Li Gu, Liang Hongsheng, and Yang Quan to all stop and look toward the source of the roar.
It was a beast resembling both a Tiger and a Lion, its body emanating a murderous aura, walking step by step toward Li Gu.
Beside it walked another small beast with a similar appearance, but like a Dog but was not a Dog.
The two beasts walked out under everyone’s gaze as if taking a casual stroll.
Upon seeing Xiao Bai, An Cangye’s expression changed, and he immediately warned Li Gu, “Sir, be careful of that beast, it is not as simple as it seems.”
Having suffered at Xiao Bai’s hands before, but never having seen Xiao Hei, he did not pay attention to Xiao Hei.
“Just two uncivilized beasts, they dare act fierce before me!?”
Li Gu paid no attention, expanding his aura until even An Cangye could not stand beside him. An Cangye was forced into retreating a long distance, along with those of the An Family.
Liang Hongsheng wanted to act, but was stopped by Yang Quan.
What a joke, that creature was the Sky Reaching Behemoth! With the Sky Reaching Behemoth taking action, that one Demonic Beast was worth the both of them acting combined.
“Could it be…” Liang Hongsheng’s pupils also expanded slightly, his gaze falling on Xiao Hei, his eyes filled with deep shock.
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed that the Beast King had been tamed by a little girl, and was being treated like a pet.
“Xiao Hei?” The corners of Liang Hongsheng and Yang Quan’s mouths twitched involuntarily.
Only Qin Yichen’s Daughter would dare give such a name to the Sky Reaching Behemoth. After all, it was a fierce Demonic Beast born from the Blood Essence of a Black Qilin!
*Roar!* Before Xiao Bai could act, Xiao Hei charged toward Li Gu first, emanating a murderous aura.
These days at the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce had been absolutely inhuman for it – no, absolutely unbeastly! Only it knew its own suffering. And now, it finally had a place to vent! It certainly could not miss out on this rare opportunity.
“You dare!?” Li Gu shouted, his hand transforming into a claw, grabbing for Xiao Hei’s neck, intending to directly snap its neck for a quick victory.
However, he was destined to hit a wall.
Seeing him still dare to underestimate it, Xiao Hei grew angrier, undoubtedly striking harder, directly swatting toward Li Gu’s chest.
*Bang!* When the two collided, a massive energy wave immediately spread out from the center, destroying surrounding buildings. Even the walls of the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce collapsed with a crash.
*Boom!* Following this, a figure shot out from within, flying toward the distance. This figure rolled for a long stretch before crashing into a shop and finally stopping.
As the dust slowly settled, the situation on the scene fell into everyone’s view.
Standing there was Xiao Hei. Although it had not transformed into its massive true form, its murderous aura made it seem like a beast from Hell, still intimidating, making others fear to look at it.
However, what shocked them most was that the Li Family Elder had disappeared.
“Could it be…”
Everyone thought of the figure that had been blasted away moments ago. Without a doubt, that was certainly Li Gu.
*Siiii* Everyone, including Liang Hongsheng and Yang Quan, could not help but draw in sharp breaths. One strike had sent a Martial King flying!
This was the Beast King, the Sky Reaching Behemoth!
Of course, Li Gu’s underestimation was one important factor.
Xiao Hei striking in anger was also an important factor.
But at any time, underestimating an opponent meant paying a painful price.
Even if Li Gu thought until his head burst, he could not understand how or why such a terrifying Demonic Beast was hidden in that small shop!
*Boom!* Soon, that distant shop suddenly blew up. Various stones and wood pieces flew in all directions, with countless people in the surroundings getting injured. The pain caused cries and screams amongst the crowd.
The observing crowd could not help but retreat again, their gazes all turning toward the ruins of that shop.
There, the figure stood, appearing extremely disheveled. His clothes were in tatters, covered in bloodstains, with an eye-catching trace of blood at the corner of his lip.
The hand that had clashed with Xiao Hei was even more limp and weakened. The limp arm clearly dislocated.
Now, his body trembled slightly, whether from injury or anger, it was unclear.
“Ah!…” Li Gu let out a loud roar, an even stronger aura spreading from his body, and behind him appeared the image of a huge Eight Legged Spider.
Eight Legged Spider Martial Soul.
This was the Li Family’s common Martial Soul. Its power was undeniable, otherwise, there would not be today’s mighty Li Family.
It was said that when the Eight Legged Spider was utilized to its extreme, it could control eight legs. Each leg could control a weapon, plus the main body, which was equivalent to fighting five against one.
This was the power of the Eight Legged Spider.
Li Gu being forced to reveal his Martial Soul showed that he now considered Xiao Hei a worthy opponent.
However, he had already completely lost face.
He, an Elder of the Li Family, had actually been sent flying by a beast – how humiliating!
