Chapter 271

**Chapter 271: Bastard, dare you move against me?**

Whoosh!

In a flash, Li Tai’a caught the severely injured Gu Miaoyan and landed steadily.

On the other side, Wu Conggang and his two companions, having their hands and feet severed, slammed heavily to the ground.

What was happening here naturally could not escape the perception of the Snow-Haired Elder.

Feeling that hundreds of his troops had died or been injured, the Snow-Haired Elder was seething with fury.

However, since he was in the process of further merging with the Alien Immortal, the backlash pain that had accompanied him for years surged forward, making it impossible for him to break away from the blood pool medicinal bath temporarily.

Thus, the Snow-Haired Elder activated the “King-level Soldier Talisman,” preparing to assimilate the Xuanjia Guards.

Due to the considerable distance and the need to allocate most of his immortal thoughts and powers to counteract the backlash pain, the Snow-Haired Elder could only manage to assimilate the three leaders, namely Wu Conggang and his companions.

Buzz!

The space trembled, and a strand of supreme assimilation law quietly descended, entering Wu Conggang and the others’ bodies.

In an instant, their breath surged rapidly, reaching a level in just a few breaths that even the Immortal Kings would find unattainable.

“How dare you, kid, kill my Xuanjia Guards? You’re looking for death!”

Wu Conggang, now without hands or feet, forced his injuries to seal up, rising into the air, hovering midair.

“Hmph!”

Li Tai’a stood in the wind, eyes filled with disdain and killing intent.

“A dignified Peak Immortal King bullying a woman indiscriminately? Today, I, Li, will risk my life to slay all of you scum!”

Wu Conggang’s pupils turned white; at this moment, he was not aware but was being controlled by the Snow-Haired Elder’s voice, “You, too, are a third-grade Immortal King. Is it worth dying for a woman?”

“Hahaha!” Li Tai’a laughed uproariously, saying, “It’s worth it, why wouldn’t it be? Moreover, if you dare to kill me, your own life might not be secure!”

“You arrogant fool! This king will crush you like an ant, what is there to fear? Child, die!”

Wu Conggang coldly shouted and was about to strike.

“Bastard, dare you! Have you not heard the name of Li Wendao from the Li family in the Southern Wilderness?”

Li Tai’a raised his sword, his sword intent rolling like a tide, exuding a domineering aura that could tear the heavens apart!

“Li Wendao? Li… Immortal Sovereign Li!”

Upon hearing this name, the Snow-Haired Elder’s heart trembled violently.

In the Raging Dragon Sea, there were a total of three major powers, or three immortal courts, each ruled by an Immortal Emperor.

Under each Immortal Emperor, there were several Immortal Sovereigns serving them. In the Southern Wilderness, there were three Immortal Sovereigns, and the Li family’s Li Wendao was one of them.

Someone of the Snow-Haired Elder’s level surely had heard of the name of Immortal Sovereign Li.

“What, old thing, are you afraid? If you dare harm a hair on this king today, my grandfather will rip you to shreds!”

Li Tai’a stood with his sword, completely unperturbed.

This guy is actually the grandson of an Immortal Sovereign?

In the corner, Chen Ansheng shivered upon learning of Li Tai’a’s identity.

That is an Immortal Sovereign, capable of killing a Peak Immortal King with a mere gesture.

In a way, the entire Immortal Realm is actually controlled by some great Immortal Sovereigns, as most Immortal Emperors are in seclusion, with all major matters handled by those top Immortal Sovereigns.

The Peak Immortal King is merely making their initial appearance, while the Immortal Sovereign is the true upper echelon!

Anyone looking to survive, even a Peak Immortal King, would not be foolish enough to provoke an Immortal Sovereign’s family.

“Shut your mouth, nonsense!” the Snow-Haired Elder shouted angrily, “The three forces established rules that no Immortal King from their lineage could come to the Raging Dragon Sea to fight for territory. You want to deceive me?!”

Li Tai’a remained calm, sneering repeatedly, “Rules? The so-called rules are merely to limit you lowly chickens and dogs; what use do they have for me? Enough, I’ll no longer waste words with a lowly rat like you. You have ten breaths to consider: either kill me and wait to be destroyed, or let me take this woman and spare your life. Choose!”

“Hmph.”

The Snow-Haired Elder scoffed coldly.

“How could I be intimidated by a mere minion like you? Die!”

Boom!

The Snow-Haired Elder controlled Wu Conggang and raised a hand.

An extremely terrifying palm shadow of immortal power descended from the sky.

Bang bang bang…

Li Tai’a’s protective sword intent shattered upon contact, unable to withstand that peak immortal power.

“Hahaha, good, old bastard, you’re really tired of living.”

Li Tai’a did not dodge or defend; he sheathed his sword, placed his hands behind his back, and let the huge palm press down.

Crack!

As the violent immortal power pressed down, a crack opened in Li Tai’a’s skull.

Suddenly, that palm shadow of immortal power shattered on its own, vanishing without a trace, as if it had never existed.

At this critical moment, the Snow-Haired Elder finally flinched and retracted the palm shadow.

If Li Tai’a hadn’t appeared so composed while waiting for death earlier, the Snow-Haired Elder would likely have crushed him directly; instead, it was his attitude that instilled fear in the Snow-Haired Elder.

“Good, what a Sword Immortal King. I built this Peace City, and for good reason, only to ensure a region of peace. How could I indiscriminately kill the innocent?”

The Snow-Haired Elder’s tone clearly relaxed.

“Enough of your nonsense; the ten breaths are up. If you don’t kill me, I will charge you interest!”

Whoosh!

Li Tai’a swept his hand in front of him, a myriad of sword shadows piercing out.

“Ah ah ah!”

Sword shadows pierced through the chests of the Xuanjia Guards.

With just a wave of his hand, he annihilated hundreds of Xuanjia Guards.

The Snow-Haired Elder’s heart ached immensely; these were all the fruits of his thousands of years of cultivation. Losing them all at once, how could he bear it?

“Speak, will you allow me to take this woman?”

Li Tai’a raised his hand, about to release sword intent to annihilate the remaining Xuanjia Guards.

“Stop, my lord! It’s all a misunderstanding, please don’t create more slaughter, my lord, do as you please!”

Boom!

A loud sound erupted, and a rift opened in the heavens.

This was the lifting of the Peace City’s ban.

“Hahaha.”

Li Tai’a laughed again, completely mocking.

“You’ve shown some sense, old bastard. This time, I’ll consider it even after killing hundreds of your guards. If you dare offend me again, I won’t be so lenient!”

After saying this, Li Tai’a picked up the nearly unconscious Gu Miaoyan, preparing to fly away.

“Good opportunity!”

With the seal opening, Chen Ansheng realized he could escape as well.

As for Zhong Li…

She hadn’t been captured this time, and with her years of experience skirting danger, she wouldn’t be easily caught. Getting out first was the best way to think of a plan.

Thus, Chen Ansheng rushed over and grabbed Li Tai’a’s leg.

“Huh?!”

Li Tai’a sensed something was off, his anger flaring as a terrifying sword intent aimed towards his ankle.

“Li Immortal King, don’t attack! It’s me, Little Chen.”

Feeling the killing intent, Chen Ansheng quickly transmitted his voice.

Li Tai’a’s expression relaxed, retracting his sword intent as he soared upward, blasting through the opened gap in the seal.

Moments later, Li Tai’a flew above the sea.

“Poof…”

He could no longer hold it back and spat out immortal blood, his immortal body beginning to plummet.

Seeing this, Chen Ansheng immediately revealed himself, using immortal power to support Li Tai’a and Gu Miaoyan.

Before Chen Ansheng could say anything, Li Tai’a urged, “Quick, take us and hide! Once that old thing notices something is wrong, he will definitely come after us!”
