The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 494 Interception

“Those cultivators, stop! I will fight you if you don’t stop!” A loud voice came from the mountain, not arrogant but domineering.

After Li Ye confirmed that the other side was addressing him, he turned to look. With his vision of the Immortal Realm, he could see the other side’s appearance clearly.

A fat little man dressed in splendid attire was standing on the stone with arms akimbo. His skin was very white and he looked very young, but his cultivation was in the Sky Immortal Realm, so he must be old.

At this moment, he was gesturing toward Li Ye arrogantly with one hand, and five to six hundred Great Cultivators behind him were eyeing Li Ye ferociously, looking like an arrogant childe out to bully ordinary people.

Li Ye glanced at Wei Weiwu. “Your son?”

He was dressed exactly like Wei Weiwu, and they had the same aesthetic standards of the minority. They could be somewhat related.

Wei Weiwu was speechless and said unhappily, “I don’t know him! Who would know such a fat, little white pig?”

Li Ye could not help laughing. He looked at Wei Weiwu from head to toe and said frankly, “I think he is about the same size as you.”

“There is a big difference!” Wei Weiwu was angry. It seemed that he was hurt by Li Ye’s misunderstanding of his aesthetic standard. He defended himself with indignation. “He is just a little kid still wet behind the ears and his voice is childish. He is pale and fat, so he can only be called a little fat pig! But I am different. At my age, I am fat and strong, which means I am mighty and burly and have great momentum!”

Li Ye thought that Wei Weiwu’s righteous words were serious nonsense. He could not help laughing out loud. However, seeing Wei Weiwu’s serious look, he thought it was better not laugh so much, so he could only try his best to hold back his laughter.

While Li Ye and the others stopped and talked, the little fat man surrounded them with his men. They did not know what was on his mind. Five to six hundred cultivators were still flying in the air after the immortals were killed.

“I think this is what is called the great momentum,” Li Ye said to Wei Weiwu seriously, as he saw several hundred cultivators coming in like dark clouds. Maybe what the little fat man wanted was this momentum.

He suddenly regretted that he had stopped here. This little fat man was obviously not easy to deal with. There was definitely nothing good that was going to happen now that he had come.

“Where are you from? Why are you not bowing to me?” The little fat man looked at Li Ye with dissatisfaction.

The cultivators this fellow brought were indeed very aggressive, but he did not leave any great impact, because he had a packet of food in his arms, was holding a drumstick in one hand, and putting it into his mouth. His mouth was oily. While eating, he took time to talk to Li Ye.

Li Ye was speechless. “We are the team of cultivators from Liuxi Town. Where are you from?”

The little fat man was a little stunned. He even stopped putting the drumstick into his mouth—it might not be an ordinary drumstick, but some kind of fierce beast or spirit beast. He looked at Li Ye in surprise and disbelief, and his eyes widened. “You don’t know me? Why don’t you know me?”

Then he glared at Wei Weiwu and the other cultivators. His voice was full of surprise and anger. “Don’t any of you know me?”

He looked as if it was unforgivable that the others did not know who he was. If Wei Weiwu and the others dared to answer yes, he might ask the “servants” behind him to start a fight.

“I don’t care who you are!” Wei Weiwu was dissatisfied with the little fat man’s imitation of his style. Seeing the other side’s attitude, he almost could not control his anger. But Qi Potian spoke before he said that aloud.

“Are you Zhao Batian, the son of the Lord of Zhenjiang City?” Qi Potian asked in surprise.

“Yes, I am!” The little fat man, whose name rivaled “Long Aotian”, became happier after being recognized by Qi Potian. He continued to eat the drumstick to show his happiness, but he squinted at Qi Potian to show that he was still a little dissatisfied.

Upon hearing his confirmation of his identity, not only did Qi Potian feel shocked, but the other cultivators of Liuxi Town were also stunned. Then they saluted with cupped hands one after another. “Greetings, Childe Zhao!”

Even Wei Weiwu set aside his prejudice and cupped his hands.

This made Li Ye curious. “Does he have such a strong background?”

“Big Master, this guy is the only son of Zhao Bofu, the Lord of Zhenjiang City. He has always been this arrogant. If someone offends him, he will definitely order his servants to teach him a lesson. Since he could travel, the demons in the Macaque King’s territory have suffered a lot because of him!”

Qi Potian quickly explained to Li Ye through sound transmission. “Zhenjiang City is the biggest city in the Macaque King’s territory and also the Macaque King’s royal city. Moreover, Zhao Bofu is a master in the Golden Immortal Realm. However, the Macaque King is one who likes the wild and lives in a cave on the mountain, so he rarely goes to Zhenjiang City and appointed the other demon as the Lord to take charge of the common affairs of the royal city for him.”

When he heard this, Li Ye finally understood why Qi Potian would be so shocked after he found out the other side’s identity. It turned out that the other party had such a strong background.

If Qi Potian’s words were true, then Zhao Bofu was one of the few figures with real power in the Macaque King’s territory. Maybe he was the second person in charge. No wonder no one could constrain Zhao Batian… Well, no wonder he had such a name.Updates by vi p novel

However, the demon clan always picked up names arbitrarily. Even Qi Potian, who was a demon in the Ground Immortal Realm, dared to call himself “Potian”. In contrast, Li Ye found it acceptable for the other side to be named “Batian”.

Zhao Batian was almost in a good mood after everyone bowed to him, but some people did not seem to respect him, so he was not completely happy. At this moment, he glanced at Li Ye disdainfully while eating the drumstick. “Why did you not bow when you saw me? Are you looking down on me?”

When he uttered the last sentence, he was particularly serious and earnest.

Li Ye immediately make an obeisance by cupping his hands and smiled kindly. “Childe Zhao, I have heard so much about you. You are so well known. It’s my honor to meet you today. Nice to meet you!”

“That’s more like it. You are sensible. If you dare to offend me, I will make you pay for it!” Zhao Batian snorted complacently, enjoying the feeling of being treated with care and respect.

Then he said in a condescending yet charitable tone, “I am pleased with your words. I will allow you to follow me from now on. I will reward you if you serve me well and make me happy!”

Li Ye immediately said righteously, “It will be my pleasure to follow you. With me by your side, I guarantee that you will gain a lot of ‘benefits!”‘

“Good, good, you’re good. Haha!” Zhao Batian laughed complacently.

Seeing Li Ye’s expression, the sparrow looked at Zhao Batian with deep sympathy. “Dude, you are screwed. His Highness’ smile indicates that he is going to blackmail you! Why, of all people, did you have to provoke His Highness? You will be crying before long!”

Qi Potian’s gaze was similar to that of the sparrow.

He had not gone to Panfeng City with Li Ye, and he did not know that Li Ye smiled like this when he saw the demon bear and coveted the demon bear’s Magic Treasures and cultivators. But he was aware of it after all. Moreover, he witnessed how Li Ye tricked and killed the Big Master of the Killing Hands. At that time, Li Ye declaimed righteously, and had a similar expression as what he looked like, right now!

Qi Potian did not know that Li Ye was smiling entirely from the bottom of his heart. “Five to six hundred Great Cultivators, and more than ten cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm, what a powerful force! What a fortune! If I can get all these cultivators, then I will have a powerful team to go to Macaque Mountain.”

“Moreover, Zhao Batian is Zhao Bofu’s only son, and he must be extremely rich, which can be deduced from the fact that he only gave a passing glance at the immortals’ storage bags. Zhao Batian turned his nose up at these Magic Treasures, which means that he has better things on him!”

Li Ye was very dissatisfied that the storage bags that he was determined to get had been taken by Zhao Batian. If he could get all of Zhao Batian’s treasures… Li Ye secretly smacked his lips. “This interest is supposed to be very generous. No, it’s very appropriate, right?”

Soon, Li Ye learned that actually, there were far more than five to six hundred cultivators in Zhao Batian’s team and that there were another five to six thousand cultivators at the Qi-refining Stage below the mountain. Such a large number of cultivators, of course, had not all been brought in by Zhao Batian from Zhenjiang City.

In fact, except for more than a hundred Great Cultivators, the other cultivators had been forcibly gathered by him along the way in the process of fighting against the beast tide, relying on his own identity. In other words, five to six thousand cultivators at the Qi-refining Stage and nearly five hundred Great Cultivators above the Spiritual Master Realm, including six to seven cultivators in the Real Immortal Realm, were originally not his men.

Knowing this, Li Ye was more confident in blackmailing the other side.

But there was bad news. Zhao Batian was accompanied by three cultivators in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm!

They did not appear when they intercepted the immortals. Li Ye saw them only when he and the other cultivators “joined” Zhao Batian’s team.

This time, when the beast tide broke out in the Blackstone Ridge, this news reached Zhenjiang City at the first time. However, Zhao Bofu did not come forward personally. Instead, he let Zhao Batian lead the team to get some training and gain some credits.Updates by vi p novel

In order to ensure Zhao Batian’s safety and successfully wipe out the beast tide, Zhao Bofu put in a lot of effort. He sent three powerful guards in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm, which lived up to his status as the Lord of Zhenjiang City. He was really generous.

The demon bear, the Lord of Panfeng City, was also in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm.

With Li Ye’s current strength, he could deal with the cultivator in the Real Immortal Realm, but he could not fight the big demon in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm unless he used the Sword of heaven at the right time. But now, the Sword of heaven was far from ready to be used again.

Li Ye felt no pressure at all because he did not intend to arm wrestle with Zhao Batian… Well, an arm-wrestling could be considered.

Blackmailing needed technical skills.

Whether the Luke Sword could be upgraded to the nonpareil processed Magic Treasure or not, depended on Zhao Batian.
