Emperor’s Domination

motivation.

Their energy and vitality have been sealed so they were no different than mortals.
The sun was high and if this continued, they would be dead soon enough.

“What is he doing?” A spectator asked.

“Just humiliating them, maybe?” Someone responded.

“No, he wants to extort Sea Emperor and Armament.” An expert familiar with Li Qiye answered.

“What? Is he tired of living?” Another blurted out.

These two were behemoths, especially Sea Emperor – the number one sect in Sword Continent.
Extorting them was awfully unwise.

“It’s true, he did something similar to Soaring Hawk Monarch back in Hallowed.” The expert was confident.

“The feud is already there, this doesn’t really matter.” An ancestor added.

Those who heard the story regarding Ning Zhu knew that there was no going back between Li Qiye and Sea Emperor.

“How long has it been since someone dared to challenge Sea Emperor?” An old cultivator said softly.

The big shots exchanged glances, thinking that the odds were against Li Qiye.

“Wealth and schemes don’t matter against Sea Emperor.
Its resources and foundation are unfathomable, a new-rich like him has no chance.” One youth snorted.

The older experts refrained from commenting.
If someone were to take down Sea Emperor, a fat piece of meat would suddenly become available for the taking.
They actually wanted this to happen.

“Wow, so obedient now.” Li Qiye smiled after seeing the silence from the prisoners.

He then raised his finger and released two disciples, one from each sect.

“Bam! Bam!” They fell to the ground, confused.

He released their seal and said: “Go back and give them this message.
If they want the hostages back, I’m not asking for much, only two-third of their treasury.
They have five days before these guys are roasted.”

The two released disciples regained their wits and immediately ran away.
It was impossible for them to save their allies.
It was better to stay alive and just report to their seniors.

“Li, our Armament Mountain will never concede to your demand.” Eight-armed Prince coldly uttered.

“No big deal, I’ll just roast all of you then.” Li Qiye shrugged.

The prisoners trembled with rage but realized their helpless situation at this point.

“Two-third of their treasury? That’s pretty much two-third of their wealth.” A listener took a deep breath.

“Maybe not that much but it’s still a ridiculous demand.” A big shot smiled wryly.
