"This King is very angry. The consequences will be severe."
The black-haired youth's face was exquisite with sharply contoured features. When he pricked his brows up and said those words with his eyes squinted, he looked innocent. It was as though he was a naive child that did not know the cruelty of reality when he made such an ignorant joke.
The person standing in front of him was the emperor of the world of politics, Tyger Li, who wielded immense power. Even those that could be deemed kings or emperors with the strength that stood atop China like Thunder Emperor, Tyrant and Poseidon would not easily anger Tyger Li no matter how arrogant they were. For a person to use the words 'the consequences will be severe' to provoke Tyger Li was either a mad man or a fool.
Even without mentioning Tyger Li's identity, just the seven soldiers standing by the door were not only iron-willed special forces, they were also mighty warriors at the Psionic Might Realm. For a 'kid' at the Psionic Mortal Realm to challenge and provoke seven Psionic Might Realm soldiers, where did he garner the courage to seek death?
Tyger Li should have scoffed and treated Shi Xiaobai as a fool but for some reason, he could not smile.
It was because the boy in front of him had a serious tone and expression. There was no hint of falsehood or hesitation in his eyes that appeared as bright as stars. It only seemed to contain pure belief.
The boy was truly very angry and he was really planning on doing something.
Upon realizing this point, Tyger Li's mood immediately turned awry as if he had just eaten a fly. He had seen many arrogant people that did not know the meaning of death in the past. Typically, he would respond with a laugh but the boy was different. He was not arrogant but was extremely firm and confident regarding the words 'the consequences will be severe'.
This baffling form of confidence made Tyger Li feel humiliated. He was extremely vexed.
With Tyger Li already feeling incensed, the seven impetuous soldiers naturally could not endure it. Immediately they were infuriated as blood surged to their brains, resulting in a buzz. Their faces were flushed red and they yearned to rush up to trample the overconfident boy under their feet and wantonly bully and humiliate him as much as they could.
They cast their eager gazes at Tyger Li, wishing for him to give the command so that they could teach the arrogant boy who did not know his abilities a ruthless lesson.
However, Tyger Li's expression was livid as his eyes cast an ice-cold gaze. He did not give the command but despite his silence, it was as if a black cloud had gathered. It was the calm before the storm.
The mood in the memorial hall immediately turned tense. It was as if it was a barrel of explosives that would be ignited at any moment in time.
Mu Lengxi hurriedly looked up and held Shi Xiaobai's arm. She shook her head forcefully with a worried expression.
She knew that Shi Xiaobai was an upright boy who would carry out his promises. She was even more aware of what sort of power Tyger Li wielded. The seven soldiers had the strength that no rookie at the Psionic Mortal Realm could defeat. Fighting them was no different from a mantis attempting to stop a chariot. She could not allow Shi Xiaobai to take such huge risks.
However, Shi Xiaobai looked down at her, leaving her momentarily stunned.
The black pair of eyes were bright and deep. They seemed to contain another world and in it, it held an ocean of stars that seemed endless and lacked any fear.
She could not stop him.
Even if he knew of Tyger Li's identity, and even if he knew how terrifying the joint forces of the seven Psionic Might Realm soldiers were, he would similarly not shrink back.
Once this boy was certain of a direction, there was no way to stop his firm march forward regardless of the tumultuous storms and roaring waves.
Perhaps it was very foolish, but that was Shi Xiaobai. He was the boy she liked for the first time.
Mu Lengxi fell into a silent daze.
"Since This King has seen it, there is no way to feign ignorance."
Shi Xiaobai gave a gentle smile and patted the girl on the head softly. He slowly stood up and turned to face Tyger Li.
At the instant when he saw Mu Lengxi slumped to the ground with tears streaking across her face, with her hugging an unconscious woman that was suspected to be her 'elder sister', no one knew that Shi Xiaobai had nearly lost his reason from anger. It had even caused the 'evil seed of fury' to stir.
He was not a boor that would clamor from seeing injustice, but when someone he valued was bullied, he would be more incensed than a boor.
Shi Xiaobai was very angry. He needed to do something.
Tyger Li locked his eyes coldly at the boy. A sarcastic smile suffused across his lips as he said with squinted eyes, "She is my daughter. I am at no fault even if I punish her. That's right, I was the one that caused her to suffer internal injuries. She had committed a wrong that she should not have committed. My punishment has only just begun. Boy, so what if you are angry?"
Tyger Li did not want to leave any evidence that was disadvantageous to him on the boy who was the talk of the town. However, he was similarly incensed. He did not mind letting the boy who did not know the cruelty of reality or had seen the true world how weak and naive he was. It was sad and laughable.
Shi Xiaobai clenched his fists. His gaze was ice-cold as he said with a sneer, "This King will first give you three punches. You will vomit out the blood that needs to be returned before further discussion over how severe the consequences is for infuriating This King is carried out."
Tyger Li shook his head slowly as he said in contempt, "You won't be able to do it. Let's not even talk about touching me, you wouldn't be able to cross this five-meter gap. Naive boy, you still do not know how weak you are. However, you will soon experience the helplessness of a weakling. Believe me, you will not be able to do a thing!"
Tyger Li was determined to completely crush the genius boy's confidence!
"This King insists on trying it out!"
Shi Xiaobai sneered and suddenly took a step forward!
"Seven Wolfskins, suppress him for This Emperor!"
Tyger Li immediately bellowed in a deep tone with a fearsome expression!
Tyger Li wanted to make the boy immobile before he humiliated him wantonly. He wanted to let the boy know that courage and conviction was not enough to make him omnipotent. Strength was the core to ruling over everything. That was the cruelty of reality!
"Yes!"
Simultaneously, the seven soldiers roared angrily for they were already eager to act. They were originally jealous of the genius boy. It was a joy to humiliate mighty geniuses, destroying their confidence so as to strengthen their dignity!
Furthermore, Shi Xiaobai had especially enraged them. Their wish to destroy and humiliate him had reached an extreme!
Even if you have created a brand new historical record in the Psionic Mortal Realm, deemed the number one boy in China and are the talk of the town with a limitless future, we can easily stamp you beneath our feet. We would use our dirty soles to trample on your face, destroying your dignity and leaving an everlasting mental scar on your path of cultivation!
The seven soldiers roared angrily in unison!
Augmentation formation, Soul Suppression!
Their jealousy and anger instantly turned into an overwhelming mental suppression. It was as heavy as a mountain as it came crashing down on Shi Xiaobai!
This massive suppression was something even Psionic Might Realm experts had trouble withstanding. It was definite that someone at the Psionic Mortal Realm would be left immobile from the suppression. No amount of struggling could change a thing!
Indeed, when Shi Xiaobai slowly took his step, his body seemed fixed in place just as he raised his right foot midway!
Tyger Li sneered inwardly as his ferocious expression finally regained its calmness.
The seven soldiers laughed heartily and felt great. They were about to mock him.
However, in the next moment, Shi Xiaobai that had come to a halt suddenly dissipated into a phantom. In an instant, he had traversed the five-meter gap and come in front of Tyger Li!
Soul Suppression was completely ineffective!
Shi Xiaobai had appeared too suddenly and too rapidly. It left Tyger Li, who had lowered his guard, unable to react in time!
When he felt danger approach him, the boy's fist had already begun thrusting at his abdomen like a spear!
Tyger Li hurriedly bent his knees and raised his arms to block. Thankfully, the boy had mentioned punching him thrice to make him vomit blood. He had subconsciously guessed that the boy's fist would aim for his abdomen!
He could block that punch!
"Be careful!"
However, the soldier that was ranked first bellowed in panic.
That was because, from his angle, the boy's left punch that was thrusting at Tyger Li like a spear was only a ruse. The boy's right palm was already coming down from atop!
Pa!
Shi Xiaobai slapped Tyger Li in the face!
The slap was loud like a reverberating thunder.
The immensity of the strength made Tyger Li scream out in pain as three white teeth flew out!
