Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 698: Let You Go?

You actually dare to refuse Liu Yifan?

No, you can refuse, but how can you turn around and make fun of Liu Yifan?

"You’re courting death!" one of Liu Yifan’s Dead Soldiers grimly stated.

Shi Hao shrugged his shoulders, "I was sitting here, minding my own business, not bothering anyone, and you came to me out of the blue, brazenly saying you wanted to collect me on someone’s behalf, don’t you think that’s unreasonable?"

Unmoved, the Dead Soldier said, "When our Young Master speaks, it is a grace unto you, yet you still feel wronged?"

Shi Hao waved his hand dismissively, "I’m really wasting my time arguing with you!"

The Dead Soldier stared at Shi Hao with murderous intent in his eyes, but did not strike.

He snorted and turned to leave.

After a while, the Dead Soldier returned, accompanied by a young man.

Liu Yifan.

This was a spirited young man who looked at Shi Hao and spoke lightly, "I hear from Ah Qi that you have not accepted my kindness?"

"Kindness?" Shi Hao scoffed, "So that was kindness, huh!"

He turned to the Purple Gold Rat on his shoulder, "Xiao Jin, do you want to take this guy as a subordinate?"

"Subordinate? Forget it, not worth it!" The Purple Gold Rat was equally disdainful, starting to stir up animosity, "However, sire finds his physique quite unique, rather suitable to be my mount."

"Die!" Upon hearing these words, and before Liu Yifan could make a move, the Dead Soldier could not hold back any longer and launched an attack at Shi Hao.

The strike unleashed a light column as large as a millstone, including the Purple Gold Rat within its attack range.

Shi Hao smiled and with a press of his finger, the light column immediately fragmented into more than a hundred beams of light, scattering in all directions.

This attack was condensed from over a hundred strands of power, and now Shi Hao easily dissolved it by hitting the nodes.

Mastering the origin of all things is truly badass.

Shi Hao felt great admiration; in the realm of the Supplementing Divine Temple, who else could pose a threat to him?

Perhaps Nangong Yun could be regarded as one, but that was merely a possibility.

"Shi Hao, you are indeed extraordinary, but without further potential, why not surrender to me?" Liu Yifan was not angry but spoke indifferently, "I can ask my father to help diagnose you, and maybe you could recover and regain the possibility of entering the Supplementing Divine Temple, or even the Great Sacrificial Heaven."

His father was a Peerless Great Ability of the Heaven Building Ladder, truly ranked among the top almighty figures of the world.

Shi Hao looked at him dispassionately; such words could only deceive a child.

How could a Dead Soldier, nurtured through Secret Techniques, possibly have more potential?

Why are Dead Soldiers so strong, if not because all their potential has been squeezed out upfront?

Having exhausted their future potential and even Life Force, how could there be room for progress?

By saying this, Liu Yifan simply wanted Shi Hao to surrender; he must be immensely curious as to why Shi Hao was so strong.

——You were nurtured through Secret Techniques, but does that mean others weren’t?

But why are you so strong?

"Not interested." Shi Hao flatly refused.

He hadn’t truly reached a dead end yet, so how could he possibly agree?

Being publicly rejected, Liu Yifan’s expression couldn’t help but darken.

He had only sent a Dead Soldier before, so Shi Hao’s refusal was somewhat understandable; therefore, he personally came to give enough face to Shi Hao.

Yet, Shi Hao still refused.

"Shi Hao, you’re really not taking face when it’s given," he said forebodingly, his words laden with a potent threat.

Shi Hao scoffed, "This is really funny. Don’t I have the right to refuse?"

"You can refuse anyone, but not me!" Liu Yifan said coldly, "Shi Hao, I’ll give you one more chance!"

He coveted the secrets that Shi Hao possessed, so he was determined to make Shi Hao submit to him because once the Ancient World closed, they would each go their separate ways.

If Shi Hao didn’t agree, he would rather not let the secrets on Shi Hao benefit anyone else, preferring to kill Shi Hao instead.

Shi Hao was aware of it in his heart, and he too had developed a killing intent.

His avoiding conflict didn’t mean he lacked a temper.

Boom!

His response was very direct, throwing a punch at Liu Yifan.

Liu Yifan’s expression turned even uglier, as he, the direct descendant of a Peerless Great Ability, was actually rejected by the insignificant Founding King Court.

Damn it!

"You truly are obstinate!" he said coldly, reaching out to grab Shi Hao.

His five fingers spread open, immediately transforming into a huge black hand, with Runes emerging and emanating a terrifying aura.

Bang!

A strike boomed past but was blocked by someone.

Han Junyi.

He intervened in the fight and blocked the blow from Liu Yifan.

"Hmm?" Liu Yifan didn’t continue his attack, but instead looked at Han Junyi for a moment, saying, "I know who you are, the most famous genius on the Chaobai Star, Han Junyi, right?"

Han Junyi shook his long sword: "Indeed!"

"Is he your subordinate?" Liu Yifan asked, while his mind was in shock. Could it be that Chaobai Star possessed such means to cultivate someone from the Founding King Court to such a formidable level?

Han Junyi shook his head: "He is my friend, as well as a person I respect."

What!

Hearing these words, everyone was surprised.

Shi Hao was unknown, but Han Junyi was different. Although Marshal Bingdong was not at the level of the Peerless Great Ability, who could potentially achieve the Heaven Building Ladder, wasn’t that impressive enough? With just his father’s reputation, Han Junyi could wield considerable power—provided he didn’t cross the line too much.

Han Junyi himself was also an extraordinary talent, known in nearby Star Domains, and this fame was not just due to his father’s relations.

Yet such a genius with a remarkable background was calling Shi Hao a person he respected?

Hiss, the word "respect" should not be used lightly.

Liu Yifan frowned slightly. He was now very curious about Shi Hao’s background, to the point that even Han Junyi would use the word "respect" for him.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Fine, out of consideration for you, I’ll let this go."

Han Junyi bowed his hands, knowing this person was not only his rival but also the son of a Peerless Great Ability. Even with his aggressive nature prone to killing, he had to restrain himself multiple times.

"Hold on!" A voice rang out, somewhat lazy yet inexplicably charismatic.

Shi Hao!

"You’ve changed your mind?" Liu Yifan asked.

Shi Hao shook his head: "You provoked me, and you think you can leave just like that?"

Liu Yifan couldn’t help but laugh: "What, you want to keep me here?"

"I don’t seek out trouble, but that doesn’t mean I fear it!" Shi Hao said grimly.

What!

Everyone was stunned, not expecting Shi Hao to be so resolute. The matter seemed to have been resolved already, so why wouldn’t he let it go?

Moreover, wouldn’t this be sweeping Han Junyi’s face?

Whoosh, Shi Hao stepped forward and attacked Liu Yifan.

"Courting death!" The Dead Soldier shouted, rushing towards Shi Hao to confront him.

Clang!

Han Junyi drew his sword, blocking the Dead Soldier’s way.

Since Shi Hao had chosen to fight, he supported Shi Hao in his own way.
