Chapter 11: I Am Arrogant, I Am Tyrannical (Part 1)

Although Nan Huairen was not a genius, his talent was still considerable; otherwise, he would not have become a Hall Master. He had once read the *Qimen Blade Technique*. In his view, this blade technique was merely an ordinary martial skill. However, today, in Li Qiyi's hands, it possessed a power that could transform the mundane into the miraculous.

Li Qiyi's words made Nan Huairen somewhat skeptical, but seeing was believing. He could not help but say, "No matter how strong a martial skill is, it cannot be compared to Dao techniques. Martial skills are merely secondary."

In fact, even now, he still found it hard to believe that a mere *Qimen Blade Technique* could kill a cultivator of Du YuanGuang's realm. However, he had seen it with his own eyes!

Li Qiyi did not explain much to Nan Huairen's disbelief. He calmly and leisurely said, "It depends on whose martial skill and whose Dao technique!"

Nan Huairen did not know that although the *Qimen Blade Technique* originated from the mortal world, it had later been refined by the Immortal Emperor Mingren. While this blade technique could not compare to imperial techniques, it was more than sufficient to surpass ordinary Dao techniques.

Nan Huairen was both surprised and doubtful. If it were before, he would have thought Li Qiyi was arrogant and ignorant. However, now, it seemed that Li Qiyi was far from being arrogant and ignorant. His casual actions already showed that he was confident and had a plan.

This made Nan Huairen look at Li Qiyi with a strange expression. Nan Huairen was skilled in reading people's expressions and understanding their thoughts. However, the thirteen-year-old Li Qiyi was a mystery to him.

At thirteen, Li Qiyi was just a new disciple in the Xianyan Ancient Sect, young and enthusiastic. However, the thirteen-year-old Li Qiyi was as deep as the sea and as calm as still water, giving off an indescribable feeling.

A few days ago, Li Qiyi had become the chief disciple of the Xianyan Ancient Sect by holding the Xianyan Ancient Order of the Three Ghost Lords. With his ordinary life, ordinary wheel, and ordinary body, even Nan Huairen thought Li Qiyi had no future.

At first, when he met Li Qiyi, he even thought Li Qiyi was a bit crazy, even arrogant and ignorant. However, after a few days of interaction, what seemed arrogant and ignorant to him seemed natural to Li Qiyi.

While Nan Huairen was in doubt, his master, Mo Hufa, was at a loss. Killing a disciple of the Nine Holy Demon Sect, especially one that Xu Hufa relied on, was like inviting disaster for the Xianyan Ancient Sect!

"Great calamity is coming!" Mo Hufa was at a loss and said, "Forget the assessment, let's return to the sect!" At this moment, they were in the Nine Holy Demon Sect, which was like being in a dragon's lair and a tiger's den!

The three of them could not possibly resist a behemoth like the Nine Holy Demon Sect. Now, Mo Hufa had only one thought: escape! Escape from the Nine Holy Demon Sect and return to the Xianyan Ancient Sect.

"This is just a minor issue, no need to run away," Li Qiyi, the main culprit, said calmly, lying on the master's chair with a certain air of authority. "In my view, there is no place safer than the Nine Holy Demon Sect."

Mo Hufa glared at Li Qiyi fiercely. Li Qiyi's arrogance and ignorance made him want to slap him hard, but with great calamity approaching, he had no interest in disciplining Li Qiyi!

"You know nothing!" Even the usually taciturn Mo Hufa could not help but curse. "You think killing Du YuanGuang by chance makes you invincible! You don't know the power of the Nine Holy Demon Sect! Not to mention their elders and demon emperors, even one of their guardians is enough to match the six elders of our Nine Holy Demon Sect! The Nine Holy Demon Sect can kill us as easily as crushing an ant!"

Mo Hufa's words were true. The six elders of the Xianyan Ancient Sect were merely powerful figures in the mortal world, but the hall masters of the Nine Holy Demon Sect were already powerful figures, and their elders were even more formidable. As for the demon emperors of the Nine Holy Demon Sect, they had created astonishing miracles over the past thirty thousand years! It was said that the Sun Wheel Demon Emperor of the Nine Holy Demon Sect was already unfathomable!

"Guardian Mo, there's no need to worry," Li Qiyi said calmly. "The Nine Holy Demon Sect is just a minor issue. If we were outside, I might be a bit nervous, but here, in the Nine Holy Demon Sect, it depends on who crushes whom! Powerful figures and nobles are nothing to me!"

Li Qiyi's arrogant words made Mo Hufa tremble with anger. The six elders of the Xianyan Ancient Sect were merely powerful figures, yet this newly initiated disciple, who knew nothing about Dao techniques, dared to say that powerful figures and nobles were nothing to him.

"You—!" Mo Hufa truly wanted to slap this arrogant and ignorant person!

However, at that moment, there was a commotion outside! Nan Huairen's face turned pale, and he rushed out to see what was happening. Soon, he rushed back, his face changed, and he said in a panic, "Not good, our courtyard has been sealed off by the disciples of the Nine Holy Demon Sect!"

Mo Hufa's face changed drastically, and he stood up. At that moment, several people walked in, led by Hall Master Fu, whose face was extremely grim.

"Brother Fu, there's a misunderstanding between our two sects!" Seeing Hall Master Fu come in with a cold face, Mo Hufa knew there was no escape. He took a deep breath and stepped forward.

"Misunderstanding? If it's a misunderstanding, talk to our nephew Xu!" Hall Master Fu coldly snorted and stepped aside, revealing a young man.

This young man wore golden clothes, exuding a blood aura, and a faint golden light emerged from behind his head. He looked to be about twenty years old but already possessed a shocking aura.

Seeing this young man, Mo Hufa could not help but feel a chill. This young man was likely at the True Life realm! To reach such a realm at such a young age was indeed remarkable. It had taken him over fifty years to reach this realm!

"This is Guardian Xu's eldest disciple, Xu Hui! Du YuanGuang was about to become Guardian Xu's disciple but was tragically killed. Xu Hui demands justice!" Hall Master Fu said coldly.

As soon as Xu Hui stepped forward, his eyes glowed with golden light, and his entire presence was intimidating, like a divine sword unsheathed. He exuded a fierce aura, as if ready to devour someone.

Xu Hui was certainly much stronger than Du YuanGuang. Although he was not a world-class genius in the Nine Holy Demon Sect, he was a very accomplished disciple and could already stand on his own.

"Killing must be avenged, blood debts must be repaid with blood. There's nothing to discuss!" Xu Hui said coldly, his eyes like a fierce beast, staring at Li Qiyi as if ready to tear him apart.

Mo Hufa hurriedly tried to mediate, saying, "Daoist Xu, there's a misunderstanding. Our sect's disciple did not intentionally kill Du YuanGuang; it was an accident."

"Killing must be avenged!" Xu Hui said sternly. "There's no room for negotiation. Your Xianyan Ancient Sect must hand over the culprit immediately. Otherwise, you will bring disaster upon yourselves, and your sect will face destruction!"

Xu Hui was only a third-generation disciple, while Mo Hufa was at the same level as Hall Master Fu and held the same position as his master, Guardian Xu. For a third-generation disciple to be so aggressive was unacceptable.

More importantly, as a guardian, Mo Hufa could not possibly hand over his sect's disciple to be punished by others. Therefore, his face changed, and he said sternly, "Nephew Xu, the truth should be judged fairly!"

"Judgment?" Xu Hui's face turned cold, and he said with a sinister smile, "In the Nine Holy Demon Sect, there is no judgment! Those who kill our disciples must die to atone!"

"Is it any wonder—" At that moment, Li Qiyi slowly stood up, calm and composed, walked out, and looked at Xu Hui, saying, "Is it any wonder the Nine Holy Demon Sect is a den of filth, with fools like you around!"

Li Qiyi's words left Nan Huairen and Mo Hufa speechless. Nan Huairen could not help but cry out in his heart, "Ancestor, if you say less, you won't die. Pointing at Xu Hui and calling him a fool, isn't this adding fuel to the fire?"

"Your words alone are enough to make you die a thousand times!" Xu Hui was instantly enraged, his killing intent surging like a tidal wave. Before he finished speaking, a large hand reached out to grab Li Qiyi!

As a guardian of the Xianyan Ancient Sect, Mo Hufa could not let Xu Hui succeed. He took a step forward and caught Xu Hui's hand with one hand.

"Guardian Mo, if you insist!" At that moment, Hall Master Fu, standing to the side, said coldly. His body exuded a radiant light, and he took a step forward, blocking Mo Hufa. His terrifying aura made it hard for Mo Hufa to breathe.

Mo Hufa's face changed drastically. Hall Master Fu's strength was that of a powerful figure, far surpassing his own. Unless an elder arrived, no one from the Xianyan Ancient Sect could match him! However, Mo Hufa had no choice but to stand his ground.

"Guardian Fu, is this how you treat guests in the Nine Holy Demon Sect?" Mo Hufa could not back down! No matter what kind of person Mo Hufa was, at least in front of the enemy, he was protective of his own.

Hall Master Fu said coldly, "If Guardian Mo hands over the culprit, you will still be a respected guest of the Nine Holy Demon Sect! If Guardian Mo believes your Xianyan Ancient Sect can oppose the Nine Holy Demon Sect and continue to protect the culprit, not only will you be in danger, but your entire sect will face destruction!"

"Destruction?" At that moment, Li Qiyi, who had been ignored, smiled faintly and said, "The Nine Holy Demon Sect is too full of itself. If anyone is to be destroyed, it will be the Nine Holy Demon Sect!"

Mo Hufa and Nan Huairen both glared at Li Qiyi fiercely. With death looming, he was still spouting arrogant words.

Li Qiyi's arrogant and tyrannical life has just begun. Please support him with your valuable votes! ^-^
