Although the radioactive people were not afraid of traditional fighters’ sneak attacks, they were still divided into opponents. If it was a top traditional fighter like Ning Shi, he would not care about his face and launch a sneak attack.
Only the top radioactive people could barely survive. For example, Ning Shi could kill Yan Yinfei instantly.
Seeing that Li Sijia did not move, Ning Shi continued, “City Lord Li, if you insist on killing everyone in the city today, we can’t go against your will.
“It’s a pity that even if you pilot an intermediate mecha, you won’t be able to kill all of us, especially me.
“You should be able to imagine our subsequent revenge.”
Ning Shi guessed that Li Sijia’s so-called killing was probably just a bluff. She probably wouldn’t make a move. This was the bustling city center of New Star City. Once a battle broke out here, how many people would be killed or injured in New Star City? How much property would be lost?
Therefore, his words were also tit-for-tat, and he did not give in.
Old Li looked anxious and wanted to persuade him again, but Ning Shi held his hand down, signaling him to calm down.
At the mention of her son, Li Sijia immediately calmed down. In her heart, the most important thing in New Star City right now was for Yan Yinfei to obtain a place to further his studies and go to Taining Planet Advanced Mecha Academy to obtain an advanced mecha.
Compared to Yan Yinfei, the Celestial Sect was nothing.
A moment later, Li Sijia retracted the radiation into her body, and the light from her earring went out.
A stiff smile appeared on her face. She said with a fake smile, “Indeed, heroes come from the young. I’ve finally experienced President Ning’s power.
“You’re right, we need to learn something in harmony. I’ve learned a lot from President Ning today.”
Ning Shi didn’t argue with Li Sijia. Instead, he said sincerely, “City Lord Li, my Master is your father. Junior Brother Yan and I are disciples of the same sect, and we’re even classmates in the academy.
“Our relationship is very close. If you have any difficulties, you can ask me for help.
“As long as it’s not a big problem involving principles, I’ll do my best to help.
“If the radioactive people and New Star City are in danger, I will not stand by and watch.
“But if you want to control the Celestial Sect, as long as I’m here, it’s absolutely impossible.”
This was Ning Shi’s bottom line.
On account of Old Li, Ning Shi made it very clear that he could ask for his help, but he could not subdue the Celestial Sect.
Li Sijia looked deeply at Ning Shi, as if she had gotten to know this arrogant young man again. She did not expect Ning Shi to bring these things up on the table.
In this way, Li Sijia was in a very passive position. Although her original intention was to move the headquarters of the Celestial Sect to New Star City and then slowly control the Celestial Sect.
Some of the higher-ups of the Celestial Sect, such as Shangguan Yun, had long known Li Sijia’s purpose and did not object.
However, this kind of thing could not be said at the beginning.
Ning Shi had pointed out Li Sijia’s purpose, which basically cut off the possibility of the Celestial Sect’s headquarters moving to New Star City.
Everyone cared about their reputation. The Celestial Sect had existed for so many years and had always developed independently. They had never become a vassal of any faction.
Li Sijia nodded. “Alright, Ning Shi. I’ll give you some face regarding the Celestial Sect.
“If things aren’t going well in Blackbox City, you can move your headquarters to New Star City. The preferential policies I promised the Celestial Sect will still be effective. I also guarantee that even if the Celestial Sect’s headquarters moves to New Star City, I won’t have any thoughts about the Celestial Sect and won’t interfere in any of their matters.
“Remember, you owe me a favor.”
Li Sijia could take it and let it go. Since she had failed to subdue the Celestial Sect, she did not intend to completely become enemies with Ning Shi. She gave Ning Shi some face.
As for the favor she mentioned, Ning Shi did not care. He just treated it as repaying Old Li, his master.
After this verbal confrontation, the banquet could no longer be lively. After Li Sijia drank a few more glasses of wine, she stood up and left.
Ning Shi didn’t send Li Sijia off himself. Instead, he asked Shangguan Yun to send Li Sijia off.
Ning Shi’s actions were actually a little disrespectful to Li Sijia, the City Lord, but no one had any objections.
Because after today’s confrontation with Li Sijia, Ning Shi’s prestige in the Celestial Sect had already reached the point where he could do as he wished.
This genius, Ning Shi, had appeared out of nowhere today.
In terms of traditional fighting strength, he defeated the most powerful Hermit Pavilion Master of the Celestial Sect, Wang Yuanyi. In terms of leadership skills, he faced the threat of the City Lord of New Star City, Li Sijia. Not only was he unscathed, but he also forced Li Sijia to make concessions to ensure the independence of the Celestial Sect.
In just one day, what he had done had completely convinced the members of the Celestial Sect.
In the end, Ning Shi’s fist was big enough..
