554: Relax, take a deep breath, it's normal to feel dizzy

Looking at the dense array of bronze statues on the table, Saint King Aurora had a complex expression.

Li Qi had truly done it.

Previously, he said he would make all the Saint Kings stay, and in the end, not a single one escaped; all of them were captured and placed under a Seal.

Saint King Aurora had thought about it; if he had been among the attackers, he might have also ended up neatly displayed on this table, which was both pathetic and hilarious.

"Li Qi, there are quite a few rumors about you outside right now..."

"Oh?"

"What are they saying?"

"They say... you hide here every day playing with these bronze statues..."

Li Qi's face darkened, and he nearly choked on his breath.

With just a few words from Saint King Aurora, the image of a pervert immediately sprang to life, vividly and realistically.

After a long while, Li Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Who said that? I'm going to kill him!"

"I don't know, many people are saying it."

"It has already spread..."

Li Qi was immediately choked with anger. His ruined image was a small matter, but he feared that this overly absurd reputation would scare the Saint Kings away, making those guys afraid to show up.

If these guys all went into hiding, what would he do then?

Did he really have to go door-to-door and hunt them down one by one?

That would be too much trouble!

For Li Qi, feigning weakness was the wisest choice. Only by continuing to attract these Saint Kings to come to his door could he reap the rewards.

After pondering for a moment, Li Qi slowly said, "Aurora, help me secretly spread a message..."

"Just say that after the intense battle with numerous Saint Kings, I was severely injured, and my condition is not as good as it appears on the surface."

"I am currently nursing my injuries, racing against time to recover, and staying behind closed doors all day."

As soon as these words were spoken, Saint King Aurora knew what Li Qi was planning, and a knowing smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Small matter, just leave it to me."

Li Qi's ferocity was currently overwhelming, and his reputation was immense, having already scared off quite a few people. It was estimated that it would be hard for anyone to dare to twist the tiger's whiskers again.

But if news of Li Qi being injured spread, the situation would be different.

Li Qi's very existence represented extraordinary value; there would definitely be people willing to take the risk!

After summoning a subordinate, Saint King Aurora arranged the matter. The subordinate acknowledged the order, retreated respectfully, and went to handle it.

After finishing all this, Li Qi refocused his attention on the numerous bronze statues on the table in front of him.

"Alright, now it's your turn."

Li Qi picked up a bronze statue named Saint King Contemplation, struck it with a beam of golden light, and quickly stripped a Sacred Throne from it.

Saint King Contemplation's strength was mediocre, with only one Sacred Throne to his name. After the Sacred Throne was stripped, it was put away by Li Qi, and he began on the next one.

The bronze statues on the table were constantly decreasing, and one Sacred Throne after another was stripped from them. The faint, intermittent screams were incessant, making Saint King Aurora, who was standing nearby, twitch his brows repeatedly.

Sacred Thrones were precious items that so many Saint Kings yearned for, but at this moment, Li Qi was as calm as an old monk in meditation, his heart like still water, unmoved. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was just shelling peas...

Watching these Sacred Thrones being taken away by Li Qi one by one, Saint King Aurora sighed faintly, his heart filled with complex emotions, hard to put into words.

Li Qi had said before that there was a problem with the Sacred Thrones and that he would not continue the Fusion of Sacred Thrones.

Regarding this, Saint King Aurora did not doubt it.

Perhaps one day in the near future... he, Saint King Aurora, would also have to hand over his own Sacred Throne.

Perhaps at that time, there would be no other Saint Kings in the world, and Li Qi would be the last Saint King in this world!

And also the strongest Saint King!

Thinking of this, Saint King Aurora's breathing quickened, and he couldn't help but get excited.

He hadn't been in contact with Li Qi for long, just a few months, but in such a short time... Li Qi had created too many impossibilities.

He believed that Li Qi could definitely do it!

He would definitely be able to resolve the crisis!

While Saint King Aurora was deep in thought, Li Qi did not stop his actions, continuously stripping the Sacred Thrones from one bronze statue after another.

In less than half a day, only one bronze statue remained on the table... it was none other than Saint King Tiankui!

The reason Li Qi left Saint King Tiankui for last was probably to add a sense of ritual.

Certainly, when he reached out his palm toward this last bronze statue and grasped it, Saint King Tiankui seemed to foresee its impending fate—that its Sacred Throne was about to be lost—and a faint voice actually sounded in Li Qi's ear.

"Li Qi... you animal..."

"You will not die a good death, ahhhhhhh..."

Li Qi smiled faintly: "As expected of one of the strongest Saint Kings, you truly have some ability; even after being sealed, you can still shout a few words..."

"But save your energy, don't resist anymore."

"Relax, take a deep breath, dizziness is normal... I'll be done very soon, hehe."

As he spoke, Li Qi raised his hand and struck beams of golden light into the bronze statue, and one Sacred Throne after another was pulled out.

And Saint King Tiankui's screams began to sound, but the voice became weaker and weaker, until it finally disappeared completely...
