I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense - Chapter 681

Chapter 681: Chapter 682: Grand Emperor
Upon seeing Chen Yu, Chen Yuanyuan immediately understood that her brother must have been exposed at the border, leading the ferocious Li Xiaobai to head straight for the Great Hall of the Imperial City.

However, it was all too late now. Long Xue had been sent to the Grand Emperor’s bed by her own hands several days ago and was already cold to the touch.

Moreover, thanks to that foolish woman, the lustful old man was very pleased and firmly stood by her Chen Family’s side. This naive young man actually dared to barge in directly, facing certain death.

“Young Master Li, in front of the Grand Emperor, you’d better behave yourself. I forgot to tell you something before, the Grand Emperor is a legendary practitioner of the Void Merging Realm. Across the land, he stands at the pinnacle, a supreme expert who is not someone you can cope with,”

“If you’re willing to bow your head and admit your mistake now, I can try to plead for you!”

Chen Yu twisted his body and said with a chuckle, feeling reassured at the sight of the Grand Emperor. No matter how vicious Li Xiaobai was, he could only bow down and submit before him.

Void Merging Realm, that’s almost the realm of an old immortal. Their methods are beyond the understanding of these mere mortals.

Seeing the look on Chen Yu’s face that smacked of a successful scheme, Li Xiaobai also laughed, “General Chen, you really are something. I thought you’d be a little smarter. It seems I overestimated you.”

“Ancestral Emperor, this is Li Xiaobai, the wielder of the Spirit Realm Technique. If you can capture him and take his technique, perhaps you can ascend even further!”

“This youngster has broken through to the Refinement Void Realm from an unknown nobody in less than a year, all thanks to the power of the Spirit Realm Technique!”

“Please, Ancestral Emperor, take action and capture this demon head!”

As he looked at Li Xiaobai’s demeanor, a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged in Chen Yu’s heart, and he hurriedly begged the Grand Emperor for help.

He had become a bit too proud, forgetting that he was still in Li Xiaobai’s hands.

But no sooner had the words left his mouth than, before he could react, Li Xiaobai flicked his wrist, and a tremendous force violently surged into his body. The vast, boundless inner strength swept through his meridians, rampaging wildly.

In the blink of an eye, this robust body was blown apart, exploding into pieces and falling to the ground in a pool of gore.

“Big brother!”

“How dare you! Quick, kill him!”

Chen Yuanyuan’s face twisted, and she shrieked sharply. Her elder brother had just died before her eyes in such a gruesome manner, making her feel as if the world was spinning.

“My son!”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Above the throne, Chen Dian’s eyes also changed. It was not that he mourned his son, but the fact that Chen Yu had been in control of the two-hundred-thousand-strong border army. With his death, how was he going to manage the army now?

“Audacious demon, wreaking havoc on the sacred volumes, today we shall execute you as a warning to others!”

“Destroy his Dantian, cripple his Inner Strength!”

A group of royal bodyguards swarmed in, moving with agile steps, turning into shadows from all directions, sealing off Li Xiaobai’s retreat. Terrifyingly powerful Inner Strength burst from their palms and struck at Li Xiaobai all at once.

“Die!”

Li Xiaobai brought his hands together, as the Spirit Realm Technique inside him circulated seamlessly. In the void, two massive hands of inner strength, as huge as millstones, crushed down, grinding several royal bodyguards into pulp in an instant. Before they could even cry out, they turned into misty clouds of blood, scattering in the air.

The Great Hall fell silent once again, plunging back into stillness.

Whether it was the civil and military officials or everyone from the Chen Family, they all looked at Li Xiaobai with shocked expressions. In an instant, he had wiped out several Refinement Void Realm experts, with such decisive efficiency. His cultivation level and strength were unfathomable, far more shocking than the impact Chen Dian had earlier made on everyone.

Just what was this young man’s cultivation level, and how could he be so strong?

And why had he come to the Great Hall of the Imperial Palace?

“Li Xiaobai? I’ve heard of this name before. Rumor has it you’re a criminal sought after by the Imperial Court, and today you’re causing mayhem right here in the Golden Imperial Hall, blatantly disregarding imperial dignity. With a new king ascending the throne, making an example of you will be a warning to the world that imperial might must not be insulted!”

“Hand over the Spirit Realm Technique, and I shall leave your corpse intact!”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The old man in the imperial robe had a sinister look in his eyes. With a casual reach of his hand, he grasped towards Li Xiaobai’s location from afar—effortless. To him, killing a man was far too simple.

However, the expected sound of bones cracking did not occur, and Li Xiaobai remained unharmed, standing in his original spot.

“Huh, you do have some skill to be able to withstand a casual strike from me. Among martial artists of the Refinement Void Realm, you could be considered second to none.”

The elder’s expression revealed a hint of surprise, a young junior managed to withstand his assault. Although he hadn’t exerted much power, it wasn’t something an average martial artist could withstand. It seemed the Spirit Realm Technique was truly miraculous indeed.

“You’re the Grand Emperor? Where’s Long Xue?”

“Hand her over, and I’ll grant you a quick death,” Li Xiaobai asked, unfazed by the elder’s attack, his cultivation level was nearly invincible. Unless faced with someone of the Earthly Immortal Realm, no one could injure him.

“Looking for that woman, are you? Now I remember, you seem to be fellow disciples, brother and sister?”

“Hahaha, I have to say, your sister is quite lively. Indeed, she’s a top-notch beauty of this world, just a little weak in cultivation, couldn’t stand my playing with her much!”

The old man laughed in a very lecherous and vile manner, his eyes drifting as if recalling something delightful.

“What have you done to her?” Li Xiaobai pressed, barely containing his rage.

“Yuanyuan, why don’t you tell him what happened to that woman?”

The old man turned his head towards Chen Yuanyuan, his eyes filled with mockery. He was thoroughly enjoying this moment—ready to slaughter his enemy within an endless fury. Nothing could be more satisfying.

“Giggle, young master, please calm down.”

“Surprisingly, Lady Long has made quite a contribution. If it weren’t for her, who else could have served the Grand Emperor so comfortably? Young Master Li, your fellow disciple is a rare gem, personally delivered by me to the Grand Emperor’s bedchamber.”

“Having the honor of the Grand Emperor’s favor is no small fortune, Young Master Li. Given such a connection, if you were to grovel now, the Ancestral Emperor might just be in a good mood and spare your life.”

“Hahahaha…”

Chen Yuanyuan laughed hysterically, her eyes betraying a thick murderous intent, appearing quite insane. The tragic state of her own brother deeply stirred her, and she vowed to make Li Xiaobai die in endless torment and agony.

“I’m asking you, where is she now, and how is she!”

Li Xiaobai roared in a low voice, his eyes a brilliant crimson, wishing to tear this venomous woman to shreds right on the spot.

“What else could have happened? Naturally, she’s dead,”

“The woman’s cultivation was too weak, with just a beautiful exterior. Barely two nights passed before the Ancestral Emperor played her to death. If she could have cultivated the Spirit Realm Technique, perhaps she could’ve served the Ancestral Emperor a few more nights!”

“You’re courting death!”

Li Xiaobai roared furiously, his face twisted with rage, appearing utterly mad. Dangerous auras from his Dantian surged to the heavens, with Primordial Spirit Power enhanced, he unleashed the Demon Sealing Sword Technique, sweeping in all directions.

“I beseech the Ancestral Emperor to act and suppress this demon head!”
