Emperor’s Domination

wever, you must let everyone else go.”

He was a tough man, willing to take responsibility after leading this charge.

“No, leave me behind, let me be the hostage.” The Pill King jumped up and said: “Im willing to stay in Insane Court.”

People were speechless. He sounded as if it was so nice being a hostage. Of course, they were aware that he was completely mesmerized by Li Qiyes alchemy.

“Nice try, staying behind to steal my alchemy? Scram back to your home.” Li Qiye laughed after seeing the excited guy.

“Let me.” The old ancestor from Vermillion Martial Court spoke: “Yang Radiance Buddha is the leader and pillar of this alliance. Its not suitable for him to be the hostage. Let me stay behind. If another alliance attacks later on, cut off my head then.”

He was both logical and heroic. Rendering a leader down to a hostage didnt look good at all.

No other ancestors stepped up because being a hostage was quite humiliating. Plus, if their systems were to launch another attack, the hostage would be the first to die.

“No, let me!” The female ambusher earlier said: “Im willing to be the hostage instead of my ancestor.”

He immediately refused: “No, youre still young, go back!”

“Ancestor, youre grievously wounded and need to recuperate or there will be future trouble.” The girl said.

Many ancestors agreed with this after suffering the heavy blow. If they didnt come back to recover, these wounds could become permanent and greatly affect them later on.

“No, it is not your turn to represent Vermillion, go back.” The ancestor refused.

“Let her then.” Li Qiye smiled and said while pointing at the girl: “Shell be the hostage.”

“…” The ancestor became uneasy after a girl was picked to be the hostage.

“Dont worry, what am I going to do to her? Ill take her back when I visit your system.” Li Qiye said: “Of course, I also welcome another attack but unfortunately for her, shell be the sacrifice to the battle rite. It would be sad for so many systems to let down a cute junior like this.”

“And Im sure Insane Court wont bully the young lady.” Bright Ancestor told the rest: “Lets go with this then.”

He wanted to settle the issue so Li Qiye wouldnt have the chance to change his mind. Otherwise, all of their efforts so far would have been in vain.

“Alright.” The ancestor from Vermillion gave up.

“Li Qian, see our guests off.” Li Qiye gently waved his hand and the primordial laws uncoiled, freeing the ancestors.

Despite being freed, none dared to do anything to Li Qiye. This match has been decided the moment Li Qiye controlled the dao source. It would be suicidal to even try.

“Hehehe, senior, I still want to be a hostage. Itll be better for Insane Court to have multiple ace cards.” The Pill King offered himself again.

“Scram already.” Li Qiye laughed: “Insane Court wont feed anyone for free.”

“Everyone, follow me.” Li Qian heaved a sigh of relief. This storm was finally over.

The ancestors were happy to see Li Qiye not doing anything else to them and quickly followed Li Qian. Only the Pill King left unwillingly, wanting to see Li Qiyes alchemy again to learn.
