"Boom!" A loud noise echoed, as if half of the square trembled. The Zhao Family Young Generation couldn’t bear to watch, and Old Master Zhao felt his heart sink to rock bottom. An hour ago, even if someone told him Li Yifei would be this formidable, he wouldn’t have believed it. But now... Old Master Zhao regretted that it was too late. The Second Elder was still sluggish, and the First Elder was directly knocked to his true form, and then beaten into a sorry state. Each punch landed, even if the First Elder’s head was made of steel, it would be turned into a steel pancake...

He couldn’t help but pain his eyes shut, as images of the Zhao Family’s inevitable decline emerged in his mind, having provoked such an adversary.

Decades ago, dozens of Qing Gang men stormed the front door, and he and the butler, with a few subordinates, hacked them away. But today, Li Yifei arrived alone with a car. If he had adopted a different attitude, would it have been different? Or was it fate, destined for the Zhao Family to decline this way? Thinking of this, Old Master Zhao couldn’t help but feel self-tormented, a deep sadness welling up inside.

For Li Yifei, this was also incredibly consuming. Although the gauntlets consumed less than the True Qi Blade, they still took a toll. So after the last punch, Li Yifei’s Dantian was left empty. But he remained calm; the Innate Vital Energy he obtained from the copper mirror was sufficient for another battle, or even two such battles. Of course, if it’s avoidable, that’s best.

After landing the final punch, Li Yifei’s last gauntlet shattered. He straightened up, sweat on his forehead, and his hands covered in blood. Wiping his forehead, Li Yifei slowly turned his body, observing the Zhao Family Young Generation who had already retreated far away. His gaze finally landed on Old Master Zhao’s side, where the butler’s muscles were tensed, and the elders beside him had varied expressions. Some swallowed secretly, while others tightened their fists nervously, worried that Li Yifei might rush over and attack them.

Old Master Zhao’s legs went weak. Over the years, the Zhao Family had sailed smoothly, long gone were the blood-soaked days. Even Old Master Zhao had lost his courage; the second and third generations were filled with arrogance and extravagance. Today, witnessing Li Yifei injure the Second Elder, leave the First Elder in unknown life or death, destroy the Zhao Family statue, and now stand upright gazing at Old Master Zhao.

After a few seconds of standoff, maybe a minute, the butler hardened his heart, saying to the elders around him, "Let’s charge! He’s battled the Second Elder and First Elder continuously; even if he’s lucky to win, he must be very weak. We’ll all rush in and kill him!"

Despite the elders’ inner fear, upon hearing the butler’s words, they responded, "Alright, butler, we’ll follow your lead!"

"Go!" The butler glanced back at Old Master Zhao and strode towards Li Yifei.

Li Yifei finally straightened up, standing upright, watching as the butler and several others approached him. He had expected such a scenario, only unlike the First Elder and Second Elder, the butler and the others’ skills could only be described as...mediocre. They were considered experts, but for Li Yifei, they were much weaker, even though his Dantian was now empty.

Clang! A sound resonated, and in Li Yifei’s hand appeared a True Qi Blade once again. This True Qi Blade was condensed from the Innate Vital Energy stored within him, more potent than his original Innate Vital Energy, radiating an aura that sent shivers down the spine.

What...he can still fight? The butler’s steps halted, he struggled to turn his head and glance at the elders beside him. They also slowed their pace, evidently surprised by Li Yifei’s capability, wondering how he could conjure that white Qi Blade.

As for how powerful this Qi Blade was, although they hadn’t experienced it firsthand, the First Elder had suffered greatly under it previously.

So...should we still advance? These elders were different from the First and Second Elders; they were employed by the Zhao Family, paid well, treated to lavish hospitality, no need to risk their lives, right? If struck by a blade, it could be fatal.

With their hesitation, the butler’s mouth turned bitter, he steadied his mind, and with heavy steps, approached Li Yifei. After taking two or three steps, he stopped again, turned to the hesitant elders, saying, "Give me a blade, you... better stay back!"

"Butler..." The others felt awkward, but this wasn’t the time to risk it...

"Give it to me, it’s tough for you, you have families and businesses. However, Old Master hasn’t been unkind to me, and in times like these, I must do something for the Zhao Family." The butler’s tone suddenly became calm, speaking to the elder holding a long knife.

Upon hearing the butler’s words, the Zhao Family Young Generation felt two words rise in their hearts—loyalty and righteousness! Old Master Zhao also nearly shed tears, after a lifetime of prosperity, at this moment, it’s still the old brothers he can count on.

Li Yifei lightly spun the True Qi Blade in his hand, seeing the butler take a blade and step forward. Li Yifei didn’t rush to attack, but instead spoke calmly, "You’re no match for me, I’ll give you a chance, turn around and leave!"

The butler gave a bitter smile, saying, "Li Yifei, you’re indeed formidable. The Zhao Family this time bit off more than they could chew. I think Old Master might have to admit defeat. But the Zhao Family hasn’t lost yet; perhaps some fear death, but I’m not afraid. I want to challenge you until my death."

"I didn’t particularly want to kill you. Originally I had no hatred towards the Zhao Family, at most it was Zhao the Second. If the Zhao Family had been more respectful, this matter could’ve ended!" Li Yifei looked at the other person and said lightly.

The butler shook his head and said, "I still decide it so!"

Li Yifei’s words were interrupted, yet he remained composed. As the butler finished speaking, he raised his saber in a stance. Li Yifei looked at him with a touch of pity, his hand trembling as a blade of qi surged out, instantly reaching the butler. The white blade qi hit the butler’s saber, filling him with immense force causing his hand, wrist, arm, upper arm, and even his entire shoulder to shift out of place, followed by intense pain. The butler retreated several steps, his heels stopping his momentum.

Just one burst of blade qi held such power, if allowed... the butler was secretly alarmed, knowing he could not defeat the opponent.

In the eyes of the Zhao family young generation, the butler and others were top masters, while the First Elder and Second Elder were like celestial beings. Of course, they were unaware of these two’s cultivation relying on live blood food, else they might view them as monsters.

Li Family Head from Ning Province, Li Yifei, not only consecutively defeated the Second Elder and First Elder, but after defeating them still possess such powerful strength which was the shock.

Li Yifei raised his hand for another slash; the blade qi again struck the butler, this time making him lose his grip on the saber, sending it flying out and embedding into the ground. The blade had two nicks on it, causing the elder who lent the saber to twitch facially; it was a quality blade... yet with two qi slashes, turned like this. Damn it, this is monstrous, unable to fight, thank god I didn’t intervene.

Li Yifei pointed the saber straight at the butler, coldly saying, "The Zhao Family has been peaceful for too long, everyone arrogant, aggressive, assuming the world outside them is lowly, and trampling as they wish! But in truth, you are foolish people, I came today because the Zhao Family was wrong first. If you could apologize to me this matter might’ve ended, yet what did you do? Called out two monsters, shouting for killing!"

With that, Li Yifei chuckled coldly, saying, "Funny, regretting now? Wondering if I’m tempted to slaughter, hunting you all down one by one?"

The Zhao family young generation dared be angry but not voice it, most discontent with Li Yifei’s words, yet feared countering. Even those who disdained him before now wished they hadn’t come, hiding behind, while some agreed with Li Yifei, lost in thought.

Old Master Zhao seemed aged twenty years, taking an umbrella, slowly walking forward, hoarse saying, "With matters at this point, Clan leader Li prevails in skill, Zhao Family has nothing to say!"

"What? Playing rogue? Pretending rash?" Li Yifei bore a sarcastic look.

Old Master Zhao shook his head, said, "Lower in skill, must admit, Clan leader Li may do as he wishes, Zhao Family submits."

Li Yifei said, "Still pretending rash? Pitiful Zhao family’s billion assets, ultimately thinking like small fish village bullies, Zhao old man, you really think I dare not kill? If I want to kill, no one can stop me!"

Old Master Zhao sighed, "Regarding Zhao Xianmin, Zhao Family was wrong. Today, I apologize on behalf of Zhao Family clan, Zhao Family young generation should learn from this..."

Li Yifei raised his saber, said, "I don’t care for this matter, I said it, you already made the choice, not apologizing directly but trying to kill me; I’m fair, don’t provoke me I won’t provoke others, if others want to kill me, I shall kill them."

Old Master Zhao’s face turned stiff, his body began shaking, after a while said, "I... I am willing... to commit suicide, just ask Clan leader Li to spare Zhao Family!"

Boom! These words erupted, the Zhao family young generation boiled over, filled with terror, infinite humiliation, but hearing Old Master Zhao, they were incited, mostly young, hot-blooded, terror quick to anger, forgetting fear, suddenly stepped forth, shouted to Li Yifei, "Damn you Li Yifei, skilled and arrogant? If able kill all of us, else we’ll chase you to the world’s end!"

The Zhao family young generation was roused, the butler ready to give up now clenched fists, prepared to attack Li Yifei.
