Chapter 783
Chu Li replied, “Sun Jizhi, hurry up and get out if you know what’s good for you . On behalf of the Holy Church of Light, I’ll spare your lives . However, be prepared to face the consequences if you refuse to act wisely!”
He raised his voice as he turned to the crowd and yelled, “Members of the Windstorm Association, listen up . This place originally belonged to the Holy Church of Light’s Radiance Clan . The Windstorm Association has been extremely bold to occupy this area without permission . You should leave immediately . Otherwise, the Holy Church of Light will not spare your wretched lives!”
“Young man, did you think that we’d believe that you’re a member of the Holy Church of Light just because of your bold claim?” Sun Jizhi shouted, “Furthermore, we’ve never heard of Radiance Clan . Did you simply come here to deceive us while flaunting the banner of the Holy Church of Light?”
Chu Li sneered . “Would anyone in the Li Dynasty dare to pretend to be a disciple of the Holy Church of Light?”
He took a badge out from his bosom and raised it up high . “Open your foolish eyes and take a good look!”
He held up a square badge . An unimaginably huge mountain peak was engraved on one side while a gloriously radiant sun was engraved on the other .
He held up the badge and used the Divine Light Technique, causing the badge to emit a gentle white light that made his hand translucent when it shone against his palm . It looked extremely striking under the setting sun .
Immediately, the crowd started discussing amongst themselves in hushed voices .
No one would ever dare to pretend to be a disciple of the Holy Church of Light . As the head of the four major sects, the Holy Church of Light were very serious when it came to matters surrounding their pride . The Holy Church of Light’s disciples also had unique badges that could activate the Great Light Scripture’s heart technique . It was supposed to emit a particular type of light that nobody else could imitate .
Sun Jizhi furrowed his eyebrows as his expression darkened .
Chu Li put away his badge before he lowered his voice and scoffed . “Do you have anything else to say?”
“Hmph, other people may fear the Holy Church of Light, but we’re not afraid!” Sun Jizhi coldly said, “You may be a disciple of the Holy Church of Light, but did you think that we’d obediently leave simply because you claim that this is your territory? Don’t you think that the Holy Church of Light is being too tyrannical? Do you really think that people will obey you if you visited every town with your badge and claim that every single building belonged to the Holy Church of Light?”
Chu Li sneered . “Are you saying that you are choosing to resist?”
“We’re not resisting . However, the Holy Church of Light’s bullying is getting out of hand . We simply refuse to submit blindly to you!” Sun Jizhi spat .
“How honorable . ” Chu Li loudly said, “However, you’re very good at deceiving others yourself . Take a look at this . ”
He took out an envelope from his robe before tossing it at the man . It fluttered near Sun Jizhi while floating in midair .
Sun Jizhi furrowed his eyebrows as fear stirred in his heart .
This was an exquisite and profound skill that a young man was not supposed to possess . Furthermore, he was also a genius in the Holy Church of Light . The seemingly endless stream of geniuses among its disciples was the thing that people despised most about the Holy Church of Light .
The man beside him reached out to retrieve the envelope .
“Ahh!” The middle-aged man hurriedly withdrew his hand before aggressively shaking it .
The envelope produced a fiery force that burned his hand the moment he touched it . The searing pain was unbearable .
Chu Li huffed . “How ridiculous! You assumed that I can’t harm you, but the Holy Church of Light could have done that without resorting to such despicable means . ”
Sun Jizhi briefly sighed before reaching out to take the envelope . It did not seem abnormal at all when he touched it . The inner energy that had condensed on his palm slowly dispersed while his mind was filled with dread .
A terrible expression instantly appeared on his face when he opened the envelope and took out a piece of paper .
Chu Li raised his voice and asked, “This is Radiance Clan’s land deed . Do you have anything else to say now?”
The middle-aged man beside him inched closer and glanced at it before he sneered . “How should we know whether that land deed is real or not?”
Chu Li impatiently replied, “All of you have doubted the Holy Church of Light numerous times because of your wicked intentions . We’d never resort to such shameful methods . Can’t you tell that it is authentic?”
“No, I can’t!” The middle-aged man scoffed .
Chu Li sighed . “That means you’ve never seen a real one . You were bold enough to occupy this territory without a land deed . I just wonder what exactly made you act so bravely?”

He glared at Sun Jizhi . “I don’t want to kill anyone because life is precious according to God . However, I am merely wasting my breath here . Sun Jizhi, if you’re going to waste my time, don’t blame me for taking the liberty to start a massacre!”
Sun Jizhi lowered his voice and snarled . “You refuse to listen to rhyme or reason . Is the Holy Church of Light simply going to slaughter people and bully the weak?”
“Bully the weak?” Chu Li sneered . “I’m afraid that some people are intentionally courting death despite knowing that they’re weak!”
“You’re mistaken, this territory belongs to Windstorm Association, not Radiance Clan . Good riddance!” He lowered his voice when he spoke, but his tone was firm and unyielding .
Chu Li furrowed his eyebrows and glared at him . “Are you speaking on behalf of the Roaring Tiger Clan?”
“Hmph, I’m glad you understand . ” Sun Jizhi said, “The Roaring Tiger Clan isn’t afraid of the Holy Church of Light!”
“Is the Roaring Tiger Clan merely unafraid because of the White Tiger Sect?” Chu Li curled his lips and said, “Is the White Tiger Sector such a big deal that you dare to act so brashly? It’s ridiculous that you’re daring enough to rely on their power . I’ll count down from ten . If you refuse to leave by then, then I’ll get to work . Ten . ”
Sun Jizhi spat . “I’ll count down from three . Don’t blame us for acting rashly if you refuse to leave . Three . ”
“Nine . ”
“Two . ”
“Eight . ”
“One . ”
“Seven . ”
Sun Jizhi hastily yelled, “Messengers, seize him!”

Twenty-four people rushed over and immediately surrounded him . They wielded swords, used their fists, and waved their palms, using various methods as they attacked him all at once .
“Six . ” All of their attacks missed because of Chu Li’s swift movements .
“Five . ” Chu Li used Time Steps to dodge two swords .
“Four . ” Chu Li crouched down and lowered his body to avoid numerous punches .
These people were Acquired and Innate Masters . They could not harm him badly even if he stood still and simply allowed them to attack him .
Sun Jizhi frantically said, “Elder Sun, Elder Lu, attack!”
“Three . ” Chu Li continued counting down while evading the crowd’s attacks with ease .
Two elders flew out of the house . Their brows and beards were completely white while their gazes were icy and fierce . They delivered two punches in the air .
“Two . ” Chu Li calmly moved away and dodged both of their blows .
“This is quite interesting!” The two elders scoffed before they approached him and threw two more punches .
“One . ” There was a flash of light as Chu Li used the Time Steps and instantly appeared behind the men .
“Shh!” His sword flashed as he passed them .
One of the elders was stabbed in the back as the tip of Chu Li’s sword penetrated his precordium .
The other elder frantically turned around and delivered a punch .

Chu Li’s sword collided with his fist force as he swung it forward .
“Shh!” The tip of his sword pierced through his fist force before the blade immediately stabbed his fist .
“Hmph!” The elder quietly sighed while his face turned bright red . He was in a lot of pain as the tip of Chu Li’s sword had completely pierced through his fist .
He gritted his teeth while simultaneously delivering a punch with his other fist .
Chu Li extended his left fist as well .
“Bang!” The elder instantly flew backward before crashing against a stone lion .
Chu Li extended his fist toward him again .
“Bang!” The elder used every ounce of his strength to dodge his attacks as an imprint of Chu Li’s fist appeared on the stone lion . The imprint was so clear that it seemed like it had been carved into the lion .
Sun Jizhi became frightened when he could clearly see the imprint of Chu Li’s fist on the sturdy stone lion even though he was over ten meters away . All things considered, the strength of his condensed fist force was extraordinary .
“Bang bang bang!” Chu Li threw three punches at one go . The elder dodged two of his punches, but he was too exhausted to avoid the final blow . He leaped once again before he was pinned against the wall, where he was left completely paralyzed .
Chu Li turned around and glanced at the other people . They unconsciously averted their eyes because they were too afraid to meet his gaze .
“Sun Jizhi, are you leaving or not?” Chu Li coldly spat .
Sun Jizhi gritted his teeth as he glanced at the two High Official Elders who were both looking very pitiful at the moment . One of the elders was stabbed in the precordium, which was worrying because his life was at stake . The other elder looked terribly limp and did not seem to be much better off . There were two more High Officials in his association, but they would also be killed in vain if they came here .
“Fine, we’re leaving!” Sun Jizhi scoffed .
