The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 472 Used to It Gradually

The giant eagle was powerful enough. Even though Qi Potian had the cultivation of the Ground Immortal Realm, he couldn’t break free from its claws. Moreover, the long sword was also forced back to the front of his throat.

The giant eagle’s claws were sharp enough. Even if Qi Potian could control his Magic Treasure to go back to his storage bag before it cut his throat, his neck would inevitably be cut off by the claws.

Qi Potian was struggling to hold on. When he looked up, he saw the giant eagle’s eyes, which were bigger than a door, shining with ruthless and cold light. He was terrified.

If Qi Potian had suffered such a crisis in ordinary times, the members of the Killing Hands would have come to help, but the current battle was different. Not only were the cultivators in the forest but also the masters flying in the sky attacked.

When the fierce beasts hidden in the dark rushed out from the treetops together, their huge bodies covered the moon and the stars. There were too many of them. They gathered together with great momentum, like the endless black clouds in the sky. At this time, the masters in the air were busy fighting in a bitter struggle, so no one could help Qi Potian.

Li Ye and his cultivators walked in the forest with the cultivation of the Immortal Realm, so they fought easily. At present, they were the only people who could help Qi Potian, but Li Ye just made a courtesy inquiry to Qi Potian just now…

Qi Potian never hated the so-called etiquette as much as he did now.

Seeing the long sword in his hand being pressed to his throat inch by inch, Qi Potian was scared out of wits. He no longer cared about Li Ye’s attitude and hurriedly continued to ask him for help. “Brother Li, help me! I was wrong. I shouldn’t have stolen your Blazing Eagles. I shouldn’t have sold flying swords to you. I beg you to help me. I will repay you as a slave in the future!”

Then he saw Li Ye turn around reluctantly and give him a disdainful look. After thinking for a while, Li Ye said lightly, “Do you have any more Magic Treasures?”

“Yes, I do! The sword in my hand is a Magic Treasure. As long as you’re willing to help me, it will be yours!” Qi Potian shouted loudly and sincerely.

Li Ye nodded and said, “Well, as the price of helping you, the Magic Treasure in your hand is mine. In other words, you have no Magic Treasure now. The famous butcher of the Blackstone Ridge once said that people would definitely die in the Blackstone Ridge without a Magic Treasure, so do you want to buy a Magic Treasure?”

Qi Potian was dumbfounded. “What did he mean?”

Li Ye took out the flying sword which Qi Potian “was forced” to give to Hong Xiu. “I have a flying sword, which is worth 10,000 spiritual stones. If you buy it now, it only costs you 9,980 spiritual stones. Then you can bring it home happily… Do you want it?”

Qi Potian wanted to die. “You extorted my flying sword, but you didn’t give me a spiritual stone. Now you want to sell it back to me at the price of more than 9,000 spiritual stones? You do nothing, but you’re going to earn more than 9,000 spiritual stones. I do nothing, but I’m going to lose more than 9,000 spiritual stones for no reason.”

“It was me that wanted to extort your treasures!”

“I want it!” Qi Potian almost burst into tears. The giant eagle’s claws reached his throat. “Brother Li, help me!”

“Throw over the spiritual stones first.” Li Ye was calm, looking like he was doing a fair deal.

“I don’t have so many spiritual stones. I’ll give you all my treasures!” As Qi Potian’s mind moved, his storage bag flew to Li Ye. He cried at this moment, and he was distressed about his spiritual stones. “Please, help me!”

Li Ye took the storage bag and opened it with satisfaction.

The giant eagle was speechless. “I’m going to kill a demon, but you ignore me and make a deal under my nose. Don’t I have dignity?”

The giant eagle was furious and roared loudly. With a flash of light on its claws, its strength increased. Suddenly, they pressed down, and they were going to cut Qi Potian into two pieces.

However, at the next moment, a stream of Sword Qi flashed through the giant eagle’s neck like a meteor. Then its blood gushed out like a waterfall. The eagle’s head flew high, and its claws could no longer press Qi Potian’s long sword. It was beheaded.

As the giant eagle’s body fell, its huge wings swept over a group of trees. It could be seen that the uncontrollable power before its death was still crazy.

Qi Potian, who had lost all his strength, slipped down from the trunk. He covered his throat and knelt on the ground, gasping. His wound was still bleeding. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, so he could control it.

Li Ye came to Qi Potian and looked down at him. Stretching out his hand, he said, “Give it to me.”

Qi Potian looked up and asked in confusion, “What?”

“The long sword in your hand is now mine,” Li Ye said matter-of-factly, “This flying sword should be given to you, but the treasures in your storage bag are not worth 5,000 spiritual stones, so I can’t give the flying sword to you now. When you get enough spiritual stones, you can take it from me.”

Qi Potian could say nothing.

He looked desperate. “How did this happen? Why am I suddenly a pauper with nothing? And I owe several thousand spiritual stones. This is a little messy. I need to figure it out…”

Li Ye could kill Qi Potian and robbed all his treasures. But if the other cultivators saw Li Ye kill him or refuse to help him, it would harm Li Ye’s reputation. Li Ye was here to establish a reputation.

Moreover, as a member of the Killing Hands, Qi Potian was the only tool for Li Ye to infiltrate into the Killing Hands. He needed to learn more information from him, so it was not worth letting him die rashly.

Anyway, Li Ye was not afraid that Qi Potian would make any trouble. He really had no pressure to control such a cultivator.

Looking like he was dreaming, Qi Potian gave the long sword to Li Ye absentmindedly. He seemed to be sleepwalking, and his eyes were empty. He thought of turning against Li Ye and asking the members of the Killing Hands to get rid of Li Ye.

But now everyone was fighting the fierce beasts, and they could hardly protect themselves. Who could help him? He was afraid that he would be killed by Li Ye’s sword before he could fly up… Just now, he was too anxious to see clearly how Li Ye killed the giant eagle with his sword. With his current state, he couldn’t resist such a sword.

Qi Potian sat on the ground with empty hands, down and out. He felt that the sky was dark and that his future was hopeless. His life was full of sadness and had no love. He was disheartened and even had no strength to stand up.

Li Ye squatted in front of Qi Potian and patted his face to let him come to his senses. Then he smiled warmly and coaxed him, “I’m a very reasonable person. You see, we had a fair deal, and I didn’t lie to you. You’ve survived now. Do you believe my personality?”

“Yes, I do,” Qi Potian said smoothly and nodded woodenly. “Can I say no?”

But as soon as he said that, Qi Potian felt a chill on his back, as if he had been targeted by something terrible. His heart thumped, and he felt bad.

As expected, Qi Potian was frightened to find that Li Ye’s smile suddenly became evil. Then Li Ye said in a magnetic tone, “On my first day in Liuxi Town, the famous butcher of the Blackstone Ridge said that people couldn’t survive in the Blackstone Ridge without a Magic Treasure. You see, now you don’t have a Magic Treasure. Although I can give you a discount for this flying sword, it still costs 9,980 spiritual stones, and you’re four to five thousand spiritual stones short…”

At this point, Li Ye looked expectantly at Qi Potian.

Qi Potian shrank back and said in horror, “I have no treasure now! I’ve given you my storage bag!”

Li Ye smiled very kindly. “But you still have your life!”

Qi Potian opened his eyes wide.

Li Ye continued, “I have a loan here… Well, it’s usury. Would you like to know about it?”

Qi Potian felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.Visit vi p novel. com

He knew that after Li Ye took away all his treasures, he still refused to stop. Now, Li Ye was targeting him…

“Damn it! Why did I admit that a flying sword was worth 10,000 spiritual stones? It’s only worth 5,000 spiritual stones… Because of this price difference, I now lost my life!”

In the end, Qi Potian got the flying sword at the cost of his life selling to Li Ye—the demon fox planted a prohibition in his body, which could destroy his cultivation in an instant. He had to admit that the demon fox knew a lot.

“Well, you believe my personality, so I promise that this is absolutely fair. As long as you can let the Killing Hands surrender to me, I will free your prohibition.” Li Ye promised solemnly, looking like he was the embodiment of justice. At this point, he didn’t need to hide anything from Qi Potian.

Saying this, he raised the storage bag in his hand. “If you can provide me with useful information now, I will return the storage bag to you immediately.”

Qi Potian was overjoyed. “Really?”

Li Ye said unhappily, “Don’t you believe my personality?”

Qi Potian nodded. “Yes, I do!”

“You can tell me now.”

Qi Potian burst into thinking immediately and searched for information that might be useful to Li Ye. Soon, his eyes brightened. He said excitedly, “Our captain wants to bleed you of all your treasures, and he also asks us to find an opportunity to lure you away alone and then kill you… He covets the demon fox so much that he wants to kill you and keep her for himself!”

Li Ye was a little stunned when he heard this. It was not because the captain in the Sky Immortal Realm had evil intentions to him, but because the other side had a crush on the proprietress.

Li Ye looked back at the proprietress.

The proprietress was very angry when she heard Qi Potian’s words. When she made eye contact with Li Ye, she became angrier!

It was because the meaning in Li Ye’s eyes was that he didn’t expect that someone would like the proprietress.

The proprietress was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, which was spectacular.

“I’m born beautiful, mature, and charming. Besides, I’m good at cooking and have a gentle personality. How can I not be liked by demons? Many demons like me!”

Li Ye withdrew his gaze and coughed. He said to Qi Potian, “Your information is very useful. I give the storage bag back to you. Keep it well. Don’t lose it again.”

Qi Potian took the storage bag happily. He thought, “How could you be so brazen-faced to tell me not to lose it again after you blackmailed me?” But when he thought that his treasures and spiritual stones had already come back, he didn’t care about it anymore. However, when he opened the storage bag, he immediately stood stunned there.

“He did give my storage bag back to me!”

“There is nothing in the storage bag!”

Qi Potian looked at Li Ye with hidden bitterness and wanted to cry. He knew that he would be blackmailed, but he couldn’t prevent it!

But now, Qi Potian was not as sad as before. After Li Ye blackmailed him several times, he got used to it gradually…

The custom was a strong thing.

If Li Ye didn’t blackmail him anymore, he might not be used to it.
