Chapter 456 - Empty Threats

“Hey! Did you not hear what I just said? I told you what you to do, so you should just obey! Do you know that disobedience is the first step to death?” Cao Yi swung his sword at Wang De Cheng.

Wang De Cheng couldn’t dodge the attack at all. The sword clashed against his Mist Armor and cyan sparks fractured off. The Mist Armor couldn’t hold out against the attack, and was destroyed in the process. Wang De Cheng was shocked by this! He was already level 10, so to have the Mist Armor shattered in one attack meant the opponent must be stronger than Liu Gan!

Thunder Martial sensed the urgency and stood in front of Wang De Cheng before the next attack. If Wang De Cheng suffered another attack, he would definitely die.

“Okay, let’s just talk about it. No need to get aggressive. As for the things you have requested of us, I will convey that to our leader. We will do our best to accommodate your request,” Wang De Cheng saw the sword swing in his direction and quickly shouted over Thunder Martial.

The power of the sword was too great for them, both Elders were not a challenge to the intruder. There was no point in aggravating the enemy even more. The tactic now is to survive and buy time for reinforcements.

“A pair of idiots! If you don’t want me to kill you idiots, then kneel!” Cao Yi sheathed his sword.

“No need to push people so far! Your terms, we will agree to them. Why must you continue to harass us?” Thunder Martial protested.

If Lord Liu was here, they wouldn’t have to suffer this disgrace. It was unfortunate that Liu Gan had left a few days prior to do his mission. Any sort of communication had ceased between the expedition team and the village, so it was doubtful that Liu Gan would return anytime soon. They were following preset orders to train the battalions.

Now all of a sudden, a strong intruder showed up at their front gates. No one could’ve predicted that this party would break down the gate and injure the interim leaders.

“Okay, we will comply with your request, so let’s just resolve this verbally,” Wang De Cheng was a prideful person. There is gold beneath a man’s knee, so he wouldn’t easily bend his knee.

“So you rather die than bend a knee? I will let you die a prideful death!” Cao Yi slashed onto Thunder Martial’s body. This time he broke Thunder Martial’s Mist Armor.

The opponent had the strength to back his words, it was too much for the Elders. If Cao Yi struck again, if would mean the end of the road for Thunder Martial and Wang De Cheng.

“Okay, I surrender! I give up! I’ll kneel” Wang De Cheng blurted out as he dropped to his knees. For the sake of the village, if he didn’t kneel now, then there would be more casualties.

“I won’t kneel! You should just kill me!” Thunder Martial glared at Cao Yi.

“Oh? So you won’t kneel. Let me see if you won’t kneel!” Cao Yi sliced through Thunder Martial’s kneecap. The shin separated from his thigh and Thunder Martial collapsed onto the ground. Barely able to hold himself up, he used his upper body to prop himself up.

Cao Yi wasn’t done. He swung his sword through Wang De Cheng’s arm. The pain was surging through his head and he was writhing in pain.
