"Who dares to stop if I wish to kill him?"
Xiao Yi's voice echoed in the ears.
Yuan Da's body trembled violently as he stiffly turned around, only to see Xiao Yi standing with his hands behind him, watching him with a playful look on his face.
Behind Xiao Yi, Ning Kang had already been reduced to minced flesh.
Hiss!
Yuan Da's pupils suddenly constricted.
With his cultivation at the Tao Tribulation Realm Peak, honed in battle on the battlefield, he was confident that he could defeat a first-layer practitioner of the Dharma Manifestation Realm.
But just at that mont...
He hadn't even noticed how Xiao Yi had made his move.
Right under his eyes, Xiao Yi seed to casually kill Ning Kang.
If Xiao Yi had targeted him just now?
Yuan Da felt a chill down his spine, and a shiver ran through his body. If Xiao Yi's earlier target had been him, he was certain he would not have been able to evade.
Gulp!
Yuan Da swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yi, no longer as confident and arrogant as before, but now with a touch of solemnity and caution.
Xiao Yi walked past Yuan Da.
He approached Ning Luo.
Ning Luo looked at the minced remains of Ning Kang, his expression complex and indescribable, filled with pain and regret. After all, this was his son, and although Ning Kang's betrayal had deeply hurt him, he still couldn't help but feel sad.
Xiao Yi said indifferently, "Sorry!"
"This, this is what he deserved!"
Ning Luo forced a strained smile and said.
He had no resentnt toward Xiao Yi.
If not for Xiao Yi, the actions of Ning Kang alone would have dood Treasure Pavilion to an irreparable catastrophe.
Yang Ling took a deep breath and stared at Yuan Da, "General Yuan, the investigation results are now out, proving that Treasure Pavilion did not manufacture fake dicine. You have no objections to this result, do you?"
Xiao Yi said mockingly, "If there are no objections, then please, General Yuan, fulfill your promise!"
Yuan Da's face twitched slightly, and his heart was cursing Nangong Shengtian's ancestors up and down.
If Nangong Shengtian had not vowed to find evidence within Treasure Pavilion...
Why would he have made a bet with Xiao Yi?
Now...
Having proved Treasure Pavilion's innocence, would he not have to kneel outside for three days and three nights?
This was sothing Yuan Da could never allow to happen!
A soldier should kneel to no one but the sovereign!
If he knelt, it would not only be his own face that was lost, but the face of the entire border army and also that of the unparalleled War King Yang Yuhuan.
With this thought...
Yuan Da took a deep breath, didn't respond to Xiao Yi, but turned to Yang Ling and bowed his hands, "Your Highness, this ti I was also deceived by a traitor. Now that it's proven that Treasure Pavilion is innocent, and the traitor has been killed by Director Xiao, I shall take my leave!"

"General Yuan seems to have a short mory of the privileged,"
Xiao Yi paused, blocking Yuan Da's path, and said with a smile, "General Yuan, are you planning to renege on our bet?"
Yuan Da's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Xiao Yi, don't push your luck. I am the Cavalry Colonel General, a third-rank officer of the court, and directly affiliated with the valiant General. Challenging is akin to slapping General Sun's face. You cannot afford to provoke General Sun's fury!"
"Sun Yao, is it? I'm sorry, but I really didn't take his anger into consideration!" Xiao Yi replied, neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"You..."
Yuan Da's face was as black as charcoal, with a threatening tone, "Xiao Yi, consider your actions carefully. If you let General Bei leave now, I can overlook the past. I may even speak favorably of you to General Sun. But if you continue in your folly, behind General Sun stands the unparalleled War King. Can you bear the War King's rage?"
"Enough nonsense!"
Xiao Yi dug at his ear, clearly impatient, "Fulfill the bet; kneel at the gates of Treasure Pavilion for three days and three nights. Otherwise, I'll break your legs and have you kneel outside for three days and three nights!"
"Scoundrel, I will leave today, and I want to see who dares to touch !"
Yuan Da snorted and addressed his ten soldiers, "If anyone dares to make a move, kill without rcy!"
"Yes!"
The ten soldiers responded in unison.
Clang clang clang!
One by one, they aid their weapons at Xiao Yi.
Yuan Da, with a cold sneer on his face, directly walked away, his triumphant voice echoing inside the alchemy room, "Hahaha. Xiao Yi, you're just a paper tiger. I'm leaving openly and nobly, what can you do to ?"
"Seeking death!"
A cold gleam swept through Xiao Yi's eyes.
Whoosh!
His figure suddenly transford into a streak of black light. The ten military n's expressions drastically changed, as they all swung their swords toward Xiao Yi.
Clang, clang, clang!
Amidst the crisp ringing, sparks flew in all directions.
The sounds of Wind Thunder were incessant.
"No..."
"Ah, my eyes…"
Under the onslaught of Wind Thunder, the ten soldiers were instantly beheaded, turning into ten headless corpses lying in a pool of blood.
Around Xiao Yi, lightning flickered and danced; with a burst of roaring wind, an icy qi hand ford and grabbed towards Yuan Da's neck. Yuan Da's face changed dramatically, already on guard, as a buzz sounded and a black long knife landed into his palm.
Whoosh!
The long knife cut through the air, creating a dazzling, colorful arc like a rainbow set in front of him.
However…
This slash, potent enough to threaten a Dharma Manifestation Realm first-level warrior, didn't even manage to break the lightning coursing over Xiao Yi's body.
Xiao Yi stepped out.
Bang!
His foot hit Yuan Da squarely in the face.
Wow!
Amidst his screams, blood spurted from all seven orifices, as Yuan Da was stomped beneath Xiao Yi's foot, his face twisted with ferocity and resentnt, "Xiao Yi, release at once. Otherwise, I will report to the prince and have you torn to pieces…"
"Shut up!"
A cold light passed through Xiao Yi's eyes.
Whoosh!
Silver sword energy flickered at his fingertips. In a spurting burst of fresh blood, Yuan Da's legs were severed just below the knees. Xiao Yi used telekinesis to grab one of the severed legs, complete with its shoe, and stuffed it directly into Yuan Da's mouth.
Yuan Da's eyes were filled with fury, his body bound by Xiao Yi's qi, reduced to making only muffled noises.
Xiao Yi carried Yuan Da with one hand, walking out of the Treasure Pavilion.
At the sa ti.
The crowd waiting outside the Treasure Pavilion were growing impatient, "What on earth is happening inside?"
"Has General Yuan found any evidence?"
"Is the Treasure Pavilion wronged or innocent?"
Within the crowd.
Beitang Feng was sowhat anxious, "Ancestor Nangong, Yuan Da has been inside for so long, could sothing have happened?"
Nangong Shengtian waved his hand, his face calm and confident, "Be patient, our plan is flawless. With General Yuan and Ning Kang cooperating, nothing can go wrong. We just have to wait for him to co out and reveal the truth to everyone!"
As they were talking.
A shadow suddenly flew out of the Treasure Pavilion.
"Here it cos!"
"Who is that?"
"Could it be Xiao Yi?"
The onlookers turned their curious eyes towards the shadow.
Thud!
The shadow fell heavily outside the Treasure Pavilion, kneeling on the ground facing the building, with a severed leg in its mouth.
As the dust settled.
The onlookers finally saw the person's face and couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath, "Yuan Da?"
Bang!
The confidence on Nangong Shengtian's face vanished, replaced by confusion, "How can it be him?"
