The smile that had been hanging on his face the entire time vanished. His face sank slightly. It was just one! It was just a simple change in expression, but it was like a vicious demon had ripped off its disguise, replaced by ruthlessness.
Originally, the impression he gave off was that of gallantry, but that was only a description for humans. The tiger demon did not have the so-called gallantry, only brutality and bloodthirstiness, grinding its teeth and sucking blood, going on a rampage to eat people!
Just like how the subject had to die when the master was humiliated, the merfolk and elders of the sword pavilion all stood up when they saw how the queen and the pavilion master had been provoked. They were just about to go up and berate Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan's eyes narrowed slightly. Scarlet light flashed, glancing past their faces.
They were tongue-tied and immediately felt fear, as if they were about to be killed on the spot in the next moment. They retreated instinctively and assumed a defensive posture.
The group of people all stood up at the same time before shrinking back. Although they immediately returned to their senses, their presences had already been completely overwhelmed. Their furious words of rebuke became stuck in their throats. They were rendered speechless.
Li Qingshan did not use any abilities, but the tiger demon had already merged with his blood and soul. His movements and stillness, his anger and laughter, all appeared.
"What a heavy evil aura!" Mister Ram shivered inside. Although he had life-saving arcane treasures on him, he did not feel safe at all. He subconsciously glanced at the Myriad Poison Ancestor beside him.
You really are a boorish man with a death wish. Humiliating those cultivators of the South sea is nothing, but do you really think the few of us are people you can provoke? Let alone the fact that we've been very vague, even if we're trying to sow discord in the open, you'll have to endure it. If you don't, you'll die! But perhaps this is an opportunity. He already has a grievance with the Myriad Poison Ancestor, and now he's fallen out with the master of the sword pavilion and the merfolk queen. Does he really have three heads and six arms? Why don't we just give up on the original plan and put him to death! "
As the head caretaker of the King of Southern Yue's estate, no matter where he went in the Mist province, mister Ram would show him some respect. Even great cultivators had to be polite to him. He had already forgotten just how many years it had been since someone had mocked him to his face like this. He could not help but make up his mind to hide his sliver of fear.
He had always been a person who planned things out before taking action. He never thought Li Qingshan would be so "unwise". He weighed his words and considered the pros and cons inside, struggling to make up his mind.
"What a brute!"
Gongyuan sneered. Since she was a woman, it was impossible for her to not care about her appearance. Li Qingshan had asked her to keep the word 'beauty' for herself. It could be said that he had hit the nail on the head, making her very uncomfortable. What was even more unbearable was that her dignity as a ruler had been offended.
From ancient times until now, the dignity of those in power was the most fragile. A single wrong word was disrespect. Directly calling someone by their name was treason. Even their name had to be avoided.
"When an ordinary man is enraged, blood will be splashed five steps away!" Li Qingshan turned his head and glanced at the Merfolk Queen from the corner of his eyes.
A lack of forbearance in small matters would spoil great plans. In order to maximize benefits, forbearance was necessary. Compared to the ox demon's stubbornness and the tiger demon's bloodthirst and warlike nature, the spirit turtle's calmness and intelligence were the best ways to seek fortune and avoid disaster. He understood all of this. However, understanding didn't mean that he was willing to do it. If life was full of schemes and only did the right thing, what was the point?
Sometimes, he just couldn't bear it and didn't want to retreat. So what if he was wrong?
"Alright, let's see how you're going to bleed! I've shown you some respect, and you really think you're the King of Savages! Elder Blue, teach him a lesson! "
Gongyuan immediately became as deep as an abyss. She had always rejected and detested humans. Originally, she had reluctantly accepted Li Qingshan as her equal out of curiosity, so she had already accumulated some dissatisfaction. Now that she saw how he did not know what was good for him and actually thought he was someone important, she immediately erupted.
If he were a regular person, perhaps she would just teach him a lesson. However, a genius like that had to be killed once they became enemies.
Elder Blue hesitated. His huge hand reached towards Li Qingshan's shoulder.
Li Qingshan suddenly looked back. He did not dodge at all. "Do you really want to be the second one?"
"Of course!"
Elder Blue's heart tightened. He already knew that Li Qingshan's ability was very weak. However, he didn't expect that when it came to an enemy, he would give him such a huge pressure. He couldn't help but think of a sentence that Li Qingshan once said, "Some people, if you don't step on their heads, they won't know how to treat you as a human!"
Elder Blue pressed both of his huge palms on Li Qingshan's shoulders. He smiled. "This place is too small. Little rascal, let's go out and fight!" He said telepathically. "Don't be stubborn. It's not worth it for a sentence like that!"
Although the two of them bickered a lot, he didn't hate Li Qingshan. Instead, he felt a little admiration. Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed Li Qingshan to sit on his head until they reached the harbor. He was thousands of years old. Although the Mermaid Queen was strong, she was still a little girl in his eyes. He didn't think that Li Qingshan deserved to die just because he offended her with one sentence.
"You're not bad. You can leave now!" Li Qingshan looked deeply at Elder Blue and loosened his right fist slightly.
Elder Blue had no idea that he had walked on the edge of life and death. If he had really listened to Gongyuan's order to teach Li Qingshan a lesson, Li Qingshan no longer planned to hold back. Although he had a good impression of him, since they were standing on the opposite side, he could only kill. He was both relieved and a little regretful. The Tiger Demon's killing intent boiled like fire. It made him feel hot all over. This was the feeling he liked the most.
"You …" Elder Blue was secretly anxious. He wanted to use force to drag Li Qingshan out, but he was shocked. This seven-foot body was like a mountain, not moving an inch. "This is impossible. His strength is far above mine!"
Then, Li Qingshan said to the cultivators of the South sea, "Just Now, the people I haven't chosen can leave as well!"
Perhaps the spirit turtle's perfect plan did not suit him at all. Wanting to reach a certain level of strength before exposing his identity as the North Moon and fighting the Dragon King Of The Sea was far too conservative. Whatever, I can't think too much about it. I'll just use these guys as practice for now. Without any surprise, Little Ann removed his bronze mask and stood beside him quietly.
Everyone in the hall shivered inside when they heard Li Qingshan's words. What was he trying to do? Regular people would definitely be thinking about how to flee and avoid her wrath when they spoke rudely and angered the Mermaid Queen. Yet, he seemed determined to remain here.
Gongyuan frowned heavily. For some reason, she felt a hint of fear.
"My king, please reconsider!" Yu Wufeng blocked Li Qingshan's way.
"Apologies, there's no wind. Looks like I'll have to go back on my word!"
Li Qingshan smiled again, but it was completely different from Just Now. It seemed much more sincere, giving off a sense of joy from the bottom of his heart.
If he killed any elder or disciple of the South Sea Sword pavilion today, he would develop irreconcilable grievances with Yu Wufeng. He obviously would not act pretentiously or care about his promise. He would let Yu Wufeng undergo the third heavenly tribulation before seeking revenge.
"That's just a small matter. It's not worth mentioning. However, those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles. My king, please focus on the great things!"
Yu Wufeng tried to persuade Li Qingshan as he cast a pleading gaze at Ye Duanhai. What he feared the most was not his own safety, but the entire South Sea Sword pavilion falling into danger because of him.
