Chapter 753: Thing That Doesn’t Appreciate Kindness!
Yang Qi said coldly, "However, letting a mere disciple humiliate me... don’t you know that an expert’s wrath can leave a field of corpses? But, for Xu Yihan’s sake, I won’t lower myself to his level. I’m leaving."
Xu Yihan’s expression soured, and he was just about to speak when he heard Zhang Miaomiao sneer. "Heh, I bet he’s too scared to make a move. He doesn’t even dare to accept my Senior Brother’s challenge and is just putting on airs. An expert? What kind of expert are you?"
The elder and the middle-aged man both nodded slightly. Although they said nothing, it was clear they didn’t take Yang Qi seriously. A twenty-five-year-old claiming to be an invincible Overlord? What a joke!
"Zhang Miaomiao, that’s enough! Do you have a death wish?" Xu Yihan was truly at a loss for words. He had thought that with the Green Emperor Sect’s help, they would make significant gains at the Martial Arts exchange meeting. Who would have thought these people would be so insufferably arrogant?
When Xu Yihan looked back, Yang Qi had stopped and was now staring indifferently at Zhang Miaomiao. "I said, for Xu Yihan’s sake, I didn’t want to bother with you, but your mouths are exceptionally foul. Apologize to me at once. Otherwise, none of you will be leaving here in one piece today."
Yang Qi was a young man, and he naturally had a temper. He wasn’t about to let such a blatant provocation slide.
"Apologize?" Liu Yangeng scoffed. "Heh, if you can defeat me, I’ll apologize. Otherwise, what right do you have to demand an apology from us?"
"Fine," Yang Qi said, glancing coldly at Liu Yangeng. "Since you’re asking for a lesson, I will oblige. Come on. Even though you aren’t worthy of fighting me, I feel I must teach you how to respect a true expert."
"Hahahaha, good! Then I’ll be the one to test you," Liu Yangeng laughed loudly. He was convinced Yang Qi was a swindler who had duped Xu Yihan, and he was going to be the one to expose him.
BOOM!
A violent aura erupted from his body, instantly forming a terrifying whirlwind around him that roared like a tiger.
"Kill!" Liu Yangeng bellowed as he leaped into the air, kicking straight for Yang Qi. He held nothing back in this strike, unleashing a terrifying force comparable to a speeding car. An ordinary person would have been killed instantly.
"What a terrifying kick!"
"Mm, very strong!"
"But he’s just a First Rank Overlord. What gives him the right to act so arrogantly in front of the Deputy Commander?"
The weakest of the War God Guard were Third Rank Overlords, so they naturally looked down on a First Rank Overlord like Liu Yangeng. Still, they had never actually seen Yang Qi in action. Although they had witnessed him rescuing the passenger plane, they had never seen him in combat. This made them quite curious to see how he really fought.
"Hehe, Senior Sister Yihan, I think you should just tell him to surrender. He can’t possibly handle Senior Brother Liu’s attack," Zhang Miaomiao said with a smug smile.
However, before Xu Yihan could say a word, the smile on her face froze.
To the utter disbelief of everyone present, Yang Qi simply opened his mouth and spat out his chewing gum. Though only a piece of gum, it shot toward Liu Yangeng like a razor-sharp bullet.
"Oh no!" the elder and the middle-aged man cried out in alarm, but they were too late to intervene.
Liu Yangeng was powerless to do anything. He could only watch in horror as the piece of gum flew toward him and pierced straight through his shoulder blade.
BANG!
A sharp crack echoed, followed by Liu Yangeng’s agonized scream. His entire shoulder blade had been shattered, and his arm hung uselessly as he slammed heavily onto the ground. His face instantly turned deathly pale.
"Apologize," Yang Qi said, glancing at Liu Yangeng with indifference. "Now, do I have the right to make you apologize?"
Just moments before, when Yang Qi had ignored the Green Emperor Sect members, they had all thought him arrogant. But now, after seeing him cripple a man with a piece of gum, they realized just how terrifying he truly was. That gum was soft, yet it had just shattered Liu Yangeng’s shoulder blade.
"You scoundrel! How could you be so cruel!" the elder bellowed, fuming with rage. Aside from Xu Yihan, Liu Yangeng was the Green Emperor Sect’s rising star, and now Yang Qi had destroyed his shoulder blade. He was so furious his eyes seemed to spit fire as his own terrifying aura flared to life.
"Hah, as I said before, an expert’s wrath can leave a field of corpses," Yang Qi scoffed disdainfully. "I asked you to apologize, but you refused, insisting on provoking me. Now that you’ve lost, you throw a tantrum? Old man, his injury is your fault; you can’t escape the blame. As the Great Elder, you’re completely blind and possess no judgment whatsoever."
"You little bastard, how dare you insult me!" the Great Elder roared. "So what if you defeated Liu Yangeng? Do you think that gives you the right to look down on me?"
Xu Yihan grew anxious. "Great Elder, you are no match for Commander Yang! Don’t do it! He’s on a completely different level!"
"Step aside!" the Great Elder bellowed.
"Great Elder, come look at Senior Brother Liu! His shoulder blade is completely shattered! This man is ruthless!" Zhang Miaomiao cried.
"Ruthless?" Yang Qi said coldly. "If not for Xu Yihan’s sake, after you provoked me like that, it’s already generous of me that you’re still alive. Besides, his attack just now held no mercy. He was aiming to kill me. Did you really expect me to go easy on him?"
The Great Elder’s brow furrowed as he faced Yang Qi. "Regardless, you have injured a disciple of my Green Emperor Sect. As the Great Elder in charge, I must regain our honor. Make your move!"
"Fight me? You’re not worthy," Yang Qi said with a glance. This man was merely a Fifth Rank Overlord. While strong, he was nothing to the current Yang Qi.
If Yang Qi had said this before, no one from the Green Emperor Sect would have believed him. But now, not one of them dared to doubt his words. They knew for a fact that none of them could shatter a man’s shoulder blade with a piece of chewing gum.
"Old man, save yourself the embarrassment," Yang Qi said coldly to the Green Emperor Sect’s Great Elder.
"You go too far!" Enraged, the Great Elder could no longer hold back. With a roar, he charged at Yang Qi like a fierce beast.
Yang Qi chuckled coldly. "Shameless fool. You were given a chance to save face, and you threw it away."
He took a single step forward and swung his hand in a slap.
CRACK!
With a sharp report, the Green Emperor Sect’s Great Elder was sent flying, a spray of blood erupting from his mouth. He tumbled a dozen times across the ground before coming to a stop, utterly disheveled and covered in dirt. But the filth on his body was nothing compared to the devastating blow to his pride.
