Chapter 974: Climbing The Thunder Tower
The crowd eagerly waited to see how Li Qiye would deal with Chi Zixian. No matter what, they were still quite afraid when she brought up the Storm G.o.d! Who wouldn’t be afraid of Immortal Emperor Chen Xue’s daughter?
“I’ve had enough of hearing about her.” Li Qiye shook his head: “I don’t care for this Storm G.o.d or whatever. Besides, no one can threaten me! Not this vixen Storm G.o.d, and not her father either.”
“You…” Chi Zixian still tried to maintain a strong front despite her fear: “If, if you kill me, my grandmother won’t forgive you…”
“You’re truly disappointing me with your struggle. You didn’t even think about those close to you before death.” Li Qiye slowly stood up from the imperial throne.
“Young n.o.ble Li…” The tower lord wanted to plead for her.
Li Qiye waved his hand dismissively and said: “There’s no need to plead for her. I’ll be frank, I won’t give you any face. I wouldn’t give face to the old geezer in the palanquin either, let alone you!”
The crowd was stunned after hearing these extremely arrogant words! Who were the Thunder Tower Lord and the mysterious existence?! But Li Qiye still dared to speak without a care for them!
He looked at Chi Zixian who was acting tough despite being scared. The six paragons still protected her. They would never allow for him to hurt her.
“Li, Li… if you have no objections, your feud with Crimson Night ends here!” Chi Zixian shouted: “We won’t pursue your killing of our disciples anymore!”
“You finally understood, but it is too late.” Li Qiye gently shook his head.
Si Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment and spoke on Chi Zixian’s behalf as well: “Young n.o.ble, Senior Sister Chi will learn from her mistake, nothing can be better than…”
“Yuanyuan, even though you are following me, no one can cross my bottom line. Your pleading is of no use.” He interrupted her.
Si Yuanyuan could only sigh, not saying anything else.
“Stop!” The six paragons shouted as Li Qiye approached. In the blink of an eye, their auras surged with layers of imperial might from their laws, seemingly aiming to suppress Li Qiye.
“With just the six of you?” Li Qiye chuckled and narrowed his eyes. His mind opened and a bright radiance rushed out.
“Boom!” Before anyone knew what was going on, a loud clap of thunder resounded from the top of the Thunder Tower, as if the pond of lightning above had exploded.
“Ccrackk!” A lightning bolt struck down from above and exploded.
The crowd was still in a stupor. They heard banging sounds then in the next moment, Chi Zixian, the six paragons, and the rest of the disciples from Crimson Night all fell down to the ground, their eyes still opened wide. Even at the very last moment, they didn’t believe or know the reason why they had died!
It all happened too quickly. The lightning at the top of the tower shot down like an arrow and penetrated all of their chests, pinning them to the ground.
Green plumes of smoke floated in the air while the smell of something burning permeated the martial stage, almost as if someone was cooking. However, no one present would salivate from this smell, they wanted to puke instead!
“Lord of the Thunder Tower — is not a t.i.tle just anyone can have.” Li Qiye didn’t even bat an eye. He nonchalantly said this then turned around to enter the tower.
Everyone was blown away at this moment. Even the tower lord was shaken. He was called the tower lord by others and had protected this place for many generations. It could be said that he was the one who understood the tower the best. Alas, he still couldn’t control the tower like Li Qiye did just now.
A stranger like Li Qiye, who had come here for the first time, controlled the mysteries of this land so easily — this was too frightening and illogical.
Many people gasped and felt a chill running down their spines. One of them murmured: “Lin Tiandi is supreme and he took one night to unravel the mysteries of the thunder. Li Qiye, how long was he here for? He didn’t even climb the tower yet he can already control the lightning?”
“Gentlemen, it’s time to leave.” The tower lord calmed down and raised his voice.
