550: You all have to stay
Many Holy Kings gathered in the Origin Realm. Many people knew about this, and these people naturally also knew that a shocking battle was bound to erupt between the Child of the Great Path and the many Holy Kings.
Li Qi had been staying in Gu Yong City and had not left, which had caused great misery for the people of Gu Yong City.
If a fight broke out in Gu Yong City when the time came, there was no telling how many people would die.
Therefore, in this short month, almost all the people in Gu Yong City had fled, leaving behind only an empty city.
There was no sign of anyone on the ten-mile-long street, only fallen leaves covering the ground. Looking around, it was a scene of desolation and bleakness.
Seeing this scene, Aurora Holy King's face twitched. A perfectly prosperous ancient city... had just gone to ruin like this.
"I don't know if Gu Yong City will ever be able to recover from this..."
"Forget it, forget it. We'll talk about this later..."
After walking around Gu Yong City, Aurora Holy King sighed and returned to his private residence.
Just then, waves of powerful and familiar auras appeared on the horizon, and they were approaching at an extremely fast speed.
Although they had not yet been seen, unmasked malice could already be felt from these auras. Aurora Holy King took a deep breath, his gaze fixed: "They have finally arrived..."
As the words fell, thirty-six figures gathered over Gu Yong City. Those Holy Kings who had rushed from all over... had finally appeared!
Li Qi was still in the secret room, with only Aurora God King outside, and the gazes of these Holy Kings all fell upon Aurora Holy King.
"Aurora Holy King, the trail of the Child of the Great Path disappeared in your Gu Yong City back then. I found it very strange at the time..."
"I asked you if you had anything to explain, and you told me there was nothing to explain. So, you had already gotten involved with the Child of the Great Path back then..."
"You have quite the ability."
A somewhat mocking voice came from above. The Holy King who spoke had an arrogant expression, displaying a high and mighty attitude.
To this, Aurora Holy King did not offer any defense. He merely looked calmly at the group of Holy Kings in the sky, his expression indifferent.
"Alright, Aurora Holy King, hand over the Child of the Great Path, and we will leave immediately. We will not pester you."
But Aurora Holy King laughed: "You are mistaken. The Child of the Great Path is right here. He is not mine, and I do not need to hand him over."
"As long as you have the ability... you can take him away at any time."
These words from Aurora Holy King made the group of Holy Kings in the high sky very satisfied, as if it was their appearance that had made Aurora Holy King back down.
Just then, the door of the secret room nearby slowly opened, and a figure walked out from within.
Immediately, the gazes of all the Holy Kings fell upon this figure, and they finally saw this Child of the Great Path whom they had never met before.
The Holy Kings all knew what Li Qi looked like. Upon seeing Li Qi's face, their breathing immediately became heavy.
Li Qi had a smile on his lips as he greeted the group of Sacred Thrones above his head.
The pressure from the thirty-six Holy Kings enveloped the area, and even the nearby ground cracked. However, Li Qi, who was in the central area of the pressure from the many Holy Kings, remained completely unaware, as it had no effect on him at all.
Facing the group of Holy Kings who were eyeing him covetously, Li Qi was composed and calm, looking just like a dashing Young Master who had come here to travel.
This was the first time these Holy Kings had seen Li Qi. They were amazed by Li Qi's performance, and one by one, they could not help but show looks of surprise.
"Li Qi?"
"It is I."
"It's good that it's you. I won't say much more..."
"Come with us. Don't force us to take action."
Tiankui Holy King stepped forward, his expression cold, and spoke straightforwardly.
But Li Qi calmly shook his head and laughed softly: "Tiankui Holy King, your words are wrong."
"It is not me coming with you... but rather, all of you must stay."
Li Qi's tone was calm, as if he were merely stating an established fact, and his words carried a hint of unquestionability.
These words instantly ignited the nerves of these Holy Kings.
"Good, good, good! You dare to ask us all to stay?"
"Such an arrogant person... is something I have only seen once in my life!"
"With so many Holy Kings here, how dare you spout such nonsense?"
"Even if you were made of iron, how many nails could you take?"
"Simply ridiculous!"
"Why waste words with him? Just take him down!"
The group of Holy Kings, having been slighted like this, immediately began to curse out loud.
Watching the agitated group of Holy Kings, Li Qi smiled helplessly: "Everyone, because of some unavoidable reasons, all the Sacred Thrones on your bodies... I want them."
"Of course, I only want the Sacred Thrones; I will not harm any of your lives."
"So, I hope you will cooperate a little and let me Seal all of you... It will also be a bit of peace and quiet."
As he spoke, Li Qi reached behind his back and pulled out two small, exquisite bronze figurines... They were none other than Gu Chen Holy King and Xuanxiao Holy King!
Li Qi looked at the two bronze figurines in his hand and smiled faintly.
"If you do not mind, you can keep these two company..."
"Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
