Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 793 - 391: Path of Sacrifice

Li Yunjing’s words were decisive and forceful!

Not only Ao Lie, but even his own people all had complex expressions, seemingly in disbelief.

Many were members of the "Purple Cloud Faction" and knew that their leader Li Yunjing had a very broad network, knowing many elders. But the fact that he could enlist the aid of a Supreme Elder left everyone shocked.

This background was simply too immense.

At this moment, everyone else also realized this, each becoming braver. They, like Li Yunjing, glared angrily at Ao Lie and the people from the "Four Seas Commerce Association".

Li Yunjing’s stern rebuke made Ao Lie’s heart tighten. From the beginning, he had assumed the demeanor of a respected senior, apologizing on the surface, but in reality, bullying Li Yunjing and condescending over him!

As a result, he heard Li Yunjing saying he would have a Nascent Soul Realm expert kill him!

This made Ao Lie feel intimidated.

He didn’t know if Li Yunjing could really enlist a Nascent Soul Realm expert.

However, considering the intelligence from the East Sea battle, which Ao Lie already knew about, and combining it with past performances, he was a bit apprehensive.

But as a Golden Core Realm Eighth Heaven expert and a branch member of the Dragon Race, Ao Lie had some face to maintain. In such a situation, he still forced himself to stay calm: "Boss Li, all the faults are mine alone. My lack of strict oversight led to such a matter. But please believe, the ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ harbors no ill intentions towards the ’Star Moon Trading Company’. In the future, we will definitely strengthen our management to ensure such things won’t happen again."

"Ha! Killing so many people, and you think a few words can send us away?"

At this moment, Liao Wanqing stepped forward, mocking him: "Ao Lie, your words might fool a three-year-old. Your ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ has always been tyrannical in the East Sea. Now that we’ve fought back, you think you can placate us with some compensation? How naive."

"Indeed! Ao Lie, the ’Star Moon Trading Company’ is also an important friend of our ’Feiyun Sect’. What you did was too much and an utter disgrace to your senior status!"

Wen Bin also stepped forward, facing the senior master without fear: "I hope Senior can reconsider your words and come up with a new solution!"

The senior brother and sister of the "Holy Sound Sect" and "Feiyun Sect" stepped forward one after another, causing the faces of the people from the "Four Seas Commerce Association" to change.

Ao Lie’s expression also changed slightly, but he quickly resumed smiling: "You two, there’s no need to say such things. We are indeed here to sincerely apologize and hope everyone can give us a chance."

No one expected that challenging them would attract a joint attack from three sides!

This made Ao Lie rage with anger inside; if they were somewhere secluded, all these brats would be dead!

However, inside the market on "Shenxiao Island", Ao Lie had countless apprehensions and dared not go on a killing spree.

In Ao Lie’s view, he was porcelain while Li Yunjing, Liao Wanqing, and Wen Bin were clay pots; how could porcelain collide with clay pots?

Unless absolutely necessary, Ao Lie couldn’t possibly publicly kill these young people and flee to the deep sea.

Even with the body of a Flood Dragon and cultivation at the Golden Core Realm Eighth Heaven, it wasn’t safe in the deepest part of the East Sea!

Ao Lie was a high-ranking member of the "Four Seas Commerce Association", with numerous benefits. No matter how much he had to endure, he couldn’t flee and abandon everything he had.

"Nonsense!"

Wen Bin snorted: "A chance? Did you give Li Linzi a chance? If we hadn’t arrived in time, he would have long been dead. And what about those poor comrades who were killed? If you truly wish to resolve this matter today, you better show some sincerity instead of just putting on a show."

With two allies stepping forward, Li Yunjing’s mood improved slightly. He took a deep breath, his expression still grim, and said coldly: "Ao Lie! Compensation! You have to show some effort! We are not fools, your little tricks are truly beneath your status!"

"These little brats! How dare they speak to the ancestor like this!"

Ao Lie was secretly furious, but on the surface, he still forced a smile: "I don’t know what you all want me to do to appease you?"

Li Yunjing’s eyes were sharp, staring at Ao Lie: "It’s very simple, from today onwards, your ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ must cease all suppression of the ’Star Moon Trading Company’ and return all previously seized business and resources. As for the people you killed and injured, you will compensate with one hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones! Otherwise, this matter will not end today."

Ao Lie’s heart trembled; he didn’t expect Li Yunjing to make such harsh demands, which would undoubtedly damage the interests of the ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ in the East Sea.

The suppression absolutely couldn’t stop!

And compensate with one hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones for killing a dozen Qi Refining Realm cultivators?

This is extortion!

Ao Lie was almost fuming with rage.

A flash of cold light appeared in Ao Lie’s eyes, and after a moment of hesitation, he said: "Boss Li, aren’t these conditions too harsh? Our ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ has been operating in the East Sea for many years, and we have our difficulties too..."

Li Yunjing interrupted him: "Ao Lie, you don’t need to say any more. This is our bottom line. If you agree, the matter ends here; if not, we’ll settle this on the battlefield!"

Ao Lie’s face turned green and white; if it came to a fight, he could slap these brats to death in an instant!

But he was afraid of the Shenxiao Dao Sect!

Otherwise, the ’Four Seas Commerce Association’ wouldn’t be doing business on ’Shenxiao Island’ in compliance with the rules and competing with the ’Star Moon Trading Company’ through commercial means.

As for ambushing Li Linzi and the others?

To Ao Lie, that operation was foolproof and wouldn’t leave any evidence behind!
