Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Kill with One Palm Strike!

Peng Shi struck with his palm, and just when everyone thought Li Xiaoyao would be sent flying by this slap, Li Xiaoyao’s movements were like lightning as he reached out and trapped Peng Shi’s wrist.

Excruciating pain surged from the wrist, causing Peng Shi’s complexion to drastically change. He tried to break free, but to his horror, he found he was unable to escape this force.

“His physical strength is so formidable?” Peng Shi was inwardly shocked and speculated that this young man must be one who specialized in body cultivation.

With a slight exertion of strength from his hand, Li Xiaoyao heard the crackling sound of Peng Shi’s bones breaking in the wrist, followed by a bend in his knees and a fierce kick of his foot that landed on Peng Shi’s stomach. The impact sent him flying dozens of meters, crashing into a column in the banquet hall and slowly sliding down.

“Holy… fuck!”

“That Peng Shi was a master invited by Hong Dali at a great cost, and he was just kicked flying by this kid?”

“My God, is this kid even human? Kicking someone flying with one kick?”

“This is just too awesome.”

The most shocked of all was Hong Dali. He had thought that Peng Shi would be able to easily deal with Li Xiaoyao, but instead of resolving the problem, he was kicked flying by the other party.

And this turn of events made it clear to Hong Dali that Li Xiaoyao’s strength was far beyond what Peng Shi could match.

Just as Hong Dali was frantically thinking of a strategy, a familiar voice came through, “Mr. Li, long time no see, I trust you’ve been well?” Following that, the crowd saw Chairman Ji Yutao of Ling City coming out from the crowd and walking towards the two of them.

Like seeing a lifeline, Hong Dali ran to Ji Yutao’s side and said, “Chairman Ji, this kid is going to make a move on me, you must arrest him quickly.”

Ji Yutao frowned at him without saying a word, then looked towards Li Xiaoyao and asked, “Mr. Li, has he offended you?”

Li Xiaoyao nodded slightly and responded affirmatively.

Seeing this scene and hearing the conversation between the two, Hong Dali’s heart sank instantly, and so did the hearts of the people around.

This young man actually knows Chairman Ji? And considering Chairman Ji’s respectful attitude, his status seems quite extraordinary.

“What’s going on?” Another aged voice rose from behind, and the crowd saw Cheng Dongliang, dressed in formal attire, appearing with two bodyguards.

“Is that Old Cheng?”

“Indeed, it’s Old Cheng!”

“The initiator of this charity foundation really has significant influence, to even be able to invite Old Cheng. Tsk tsk, Old Cheng is the Military Governor of Lu Province, after all.”

“It seems that these women have quite unusual identities, and the identity of that young man is probably even more terrifying.”

“Hehe, Hong Dali really hit an iron plate this time. Let’s see how he wraps this up.”

Cheng Dongliang approached Li Xiaoyao, glanced at the anxious Hong Dali, and asked indifferently, “What’s going on?”

Hong Dali immediately said, “This kid…”

Cheng Dongliang glared at him, “I wasn’t speaking to you, shut your mouth.”

“I…” Hong Dali, reprimanded, flushed with anger, but dared not display any dissatisfaction.

This man before him could be considered one of the most powerful in Lu Province, standing at the very top of the pyramid.

In Xuan Country, money and power are entirely separate. The wealthy are not necessarily powerful, but the powerful can certainly be wealthy.

Li Xiaoyao spoke indifferently, “Cut off his tongue and throw him out.”

The crowd shivered collectively, the man was indeed too cruel, ready to cut off the other party’s tongue right away.

Cheng Dongliang nodded, and said to the person beside him, “Did you hear that? Take him away.”

A bodyguard by his side nodded, reached out to help the weakened Hong Dali and dragged him outside.

As Hong Dali snapped back to reality, he cried loudly for mercy, “Don’t cut my tongue, spare me, spare me.”

Moved by what he heard, Li Xiaoyao said, “Wait.”

The bodyguard immediately stopped, and Hong Dali gasped for air, but the scene that just occurred scared him to the point of wetting himself. His crotch damp, which showed just how deeply terrorized he was.

Li Xiaoyao walked up to him, stared into his eyes, and demanded, “From now on, all your assets belong to me. Any issues with that?”

“What?” Hong Dali was shocked, feeling utterly unwilling inside, but he knew he had offended someone he shouldn’t have today. This person was not only powerful but also acquainted with the most influential people in Lu Province.

“No problem, no problem,” Hong Dali managed after a few seconds as he rapidly thought over his options, only to tragically realise that he had no way to stop what was about to happen.

“Very good,” Li Xiaoyao extended a finger and touched it to Hong Dali’s forehead, saying coldly, “Starting from now, you have twenty-four hours to transfer all asset procedures. If your assets are not completely transferred to my name within twenty-four hours, I’ll make you understand what it means to wish for death over life.”

Staggering, Hong Dali took a few steps and, under the pitiful gazes of the crowd, fled the banquet hall as if escaping for his life.

He now wanted nothing more than to flee this place that inspired such fear in him, not willing to stay for even a second longer.

Having dealt with Hong Dali, Li Xiaoyao’s gaze shifted to Peng Shi who was picking himself up from the ground.

At this moment, Peng Shi was filled with regret and cursed himself for being such an idiot, for not investigating his opponent thoroughly before rashly making a move.

From the information he had now, this young man was not only a powerful cultivator but also had extremely close ties to the upper circles of Lu Province.

Neither fact was something he could afford to provoke.

“Do you remember what I told you?” Li Xiaoyao’s voice was ice-cold as he said, “I said that even if Yun Feiyang were to come back to life today, no one could save you.”

Peng Shi trembled, could what this young man said be true? Had Yun Feiyang really died at his hand?

If that were the truth, wouldn’t this person’s cultivation level have reached the terrifying Golden Core Realm?

With that thought, Peng Shi’s heart quaked, and he hurriedly scrambled forward, saying in a low and humble tone, “Junior did not know senior’s status and if there was any offense, I ask for senior’s forgiveness.”

Li Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes, “You wish for me to spare your life?”

Peng Shi, sensing an opportunity, relaxed and immediately started to say, “I ask senior to forgiv…”

Before he could finish, Li Xiaoyao suddenly made an unforeseen move. He raised his palm and violently struck down on Peng Shi’s crown.

“Bang!”

A clear sound of bones cracking rang throughout the banquet hall, and everyone gasped, holding their breath at that moment.

Peng Shi had begged for mercy, but Li Xiaoyao still took his life with decisive and merciless action, leaving onlookers chilled to the bone.

Seeing this, Cheng Dongliang frowned. Of course, he had hoped that Li Xiaoyao would spare the man. Not to mention that Peng Shi was also a cultivator. Killing a cultivator with such extraordinary methods in front of so many people was a violation of certain rules. Moreover, Li Xiaoyao’s status was not the same as it used to be, and doing this would likely make some people dissatisfied.
