93: Chapter 93 The Old Man

The voice that suddenly appeared was not very loud.

However.

It carried a peculiar penetrating power, as if it could reach straight into the depths of one's heart.

In just an instant.

All the clamor in the courtyard came to an abrupt halt.

Everyone turned their heads subconsciously.

They discovered that not far from their side, without them knowing when, a person had appeared silently.

This person was wearing an ordinary grey cloth robe, his hair and beard were grey and white, and his Face looked somewhat withered; if he hadn't taken the initiative to speak, they probably wouldn't have noticed him at all!

As for Li Mao, the one running the show on the scene.

He had indeed been startled by that sudden voice.

However.

After seeing clearly that the person who arrived was just a shabbily dressed, unremarkable old geezer, the rage in his heart was instantly ignited.

Seeing that his plan was about to succeed, it had been interrupted by this old thing that popped out of nowhere!

And he even dared to be disrespectful to him; wasn't this just a death wish?

"Where the hell did you come from, you old geezer? Are your eyes on your ass? You dare to meddle in this Young Master's business? Are you tired of living!"

Li Mao didn't even think about how the other party could have appeared without a sound; he only felt that the other party had disturbed his "good deed."

He had to suppress him immediately.

To save Face.

Therefore.

He didn't even think twice, rushing directly in front of Li Youming and pointing at his nose while cursing!

It could be said to be.

Rampant to the extreme...

Zhao Qingshan, standing to the side, was also stunned by the sudden appearance of Li Youming, because he didn't recognize the elder before him at all.

However.

After all, he was a Martial Artist of the Grandmaster Realm; although his cultivation wasn't considered high, his knowledge and perception were much stronger than that of the playboy Li Mao.

This person's appearance was too bizarre!

He hadn't noticed him at all!

There were only two possibilities for this situation: either the other party's movement technique had reached the Transcendent state, or... the other party's cultivation was far above his own!

Both situations.

Regardless of which one it was, he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

He very tactfully shut his mouth, just watching the other party without rashly speaking out.

Facing Li Mao's insults and the finger pointing at his nose, Li Youming showed no anger on his Face; in fact, the corners of his mouth carried a faint, almost imperceptible sneer, as if watching a clown perform.

He couldn't even be bothered to lift his eyelids, just saying in that calm yet inexplicably chilling voice.

"Who this old man is, you are not yet qualified to know. Now, this old man will give you a chance to survive: take your people and get out of here immediately. Otherwise... you might not be able to leave."

These words were spoken lightly, yet they carried an unquestionable coldness, as if he were simply stating an established fact...

After hearing this, Li Mao did not get angry but laughed instead.

And he laughed even more rampantly.

"Hahaha! You want this Young Master to get out? And you say this Young Master won't be able to leave? You old thing, do you know who this Young Master is?"

"Open your dog eyes and look! In this Imperial City, you are the first person who dares to speak to this Young Master like this! I think you are senile and tired of living!"

Because the gap in strength was too vast.

Li Mao didn't feel any powerful Aura from Li Youming at all, simply assuming the other party was a Loose Cultivator of the Jianghu who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and perhaps had some skills.

Although their Family had already lost power, their residual prestige remained; Li Mao had run rampant for so many years and had never been afraid of anyone!

Especially within this Imperial City.

He had heard of every Family that had even a little bit of strength.

And as for the Li Youming before him, he had no impression of him at all.

If nothing went wrong.

The other party was either a Loose Cultivator or someone from a small Family, posing absolutely no threat to him!

The group of guards behind him, seeing that their master had spoken, naturally clamored one after another, beginning to mock Li Youming without restraint.

"Old man! Where did you run out from? Do you know who the person in front of you is?"

"Exactly! You dare tell Young Master Li to get out? I think you're tired of living!"

"Young Master, why waste words with this old coffin-stiff? Just break his legs and throw him out!"

"Right! Young Master, give the order, and the brothers will make sure he knows what the consequences are for meddling in other people's business!"

"Look at his shabby appearance; he's likely trying to get some benefits from this old man Zhao. He should go take a piss and look at his own reflection!"

...

Filthy language, unbearable to listen to.

The group rubbed their hands and fists, surrounding him with malicious gazes, waiting only for Li Mao's order to "process" this old man who didn't know life from death.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Qingshan on the side first cupped his hands towards Li Youming, then spoke politely.

"This elder brother, this is the Young Master of the Li Family. You... you had better leave quickly, do not invite trouble upon yourself!"

Although he didn't know Li Youming's background, his intuition told him that this old man shouldn't be simple.

He didn't want his shop's affairs to have more complications, and this could also be considered a disguised warning to Li Youming.

After hearing this, Li Mao.

Immediately became even more arrogant, grinning hideously at Li Youming:

"Did you hear that? You old thing, even this old man Zhao is telling you to get out! If you are sensible, hurry up and kowtow to admit your mistake, then tuck your tail and get lost. If this Young Master is in a good mood, perhaps I can spare your dog life!"

Facing the surrounding mockery, threats, and the guards gradually closing in, Li Youming finally slowly lifted his eyelids.

His pair of old eyes, which originally seemed murky, suddenly became incomparably deep the moment they lifted, as if they were two bottomless cold pools, or like the Void Realm containing endless darkness.

He didn't look at the clamoring guards; his gaze fell directly on Li Mao's Face, which was distorted by arrogance.

"Hehe... The Li Family..."

Li Youming repeated it softly; one could not hear happiness or anger in his tone, only a kind of cold playfulness.

Before the people around could react.

The next instant.

Li Youming moved.

There was no earth-shattering Aura explosion, no dazzling movement technique.

He just took a small step forward, seemingly casually.

"Hum—!"

A terrifying pressure, heavy as a mountain, centered on Li Youming, suddenly spread out!

At this moment.

The air seemed to have solidified, and even the light became distorted and dim.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

The Li Family guards, who were just aggressive and clamoring to attack, couldn't even utter a scream at this moment; their Faces turned deathly pale, and they spat out blood.

Their bodies fell to their knees in unison, their eyes filled with boundless fear; they didn't even have the courage to lift their heads!

Li Mao bore the brunt of it.

He felt as if he had been thrown into the bottom of the ocean in an instant; boundless pressure squeezed in from all directions.

His internal organs felt like they were shifting, breathing became extremely difficult, and the bones all over his body were creaking.

"Ugh..."

He let out a muffled groan, his knees went soft, and with a "thud," he knelt heavily to the ground.

He looked up in terror.

Looking at The Grey-robed Elder who was still standing in the same spot, as if he had done nothing.

At this moment.

In his eyes, that was no longer an ordinary old geezer, but a Demon God radiating endless majesty and a terrifying Aura!

Just one look from the other party made his Soul tremble, unable to generate even a shred of thought of resistance.

"Strong... Strong expert? This... how is this possible..."

Feeling this terrifying pressure, Zhao Qingshan was also extremely horrified in his heart.

"This... this Aura... far exceeds a Great Grandmaster! Definitely a strong expert above the Celestial Realm!"

The look he gave Li Youming was filled with awe and disbelief.

Li Youming walked slowly to Li Mao, looking down at him from above; his voice remained calm, yet it was like a cold wind from the Nine Netherworlds:

"Now, can you listen to this old man properly, Young Master Li?"
