Chapter 16 : Stunned Ye Xiu.

" You!!" Zhu Meng became very scared as cold sweat drenched his back. Will Nie Li really kill him? Is he not afraid of the Alchemist Association going after him?

What a madman!

You should know that despite their decline, Alchemist Association is still a huge powerhouse, a deterrent force. Who would dare to offend them like this?

" You this you that.. bullshit. Is that your last words? " Leon asked again. " If that was it, then goodbye. "

Nie Li raised his hands and and was about to plunge the knife into Zhu Meng's throat.

" Nooooo! Wait a moment! Don't kill me! " Zhu Meng said hurriedly as he closed his eyes and covered his head with his hand. " I'm begging you, please... don't kill me... I... "

His whole body was now trembling in fear and not a single trace of his arrogance before can be scene now. In the face of certain death, Zhu Meng let go of everything and started begging for his life. Nie Li had successfully scared the shit out of him.

But Nie Li's hands didn't stop and continue to move downwards without a pause. In the next second, it will definitely be buried into Zhu Meng's throat taking away his life.

" Stopped! "

At that moment, an old voice suddenly came from the entrance of the alley. Nie Li turned his head to look in that direction, the knife on his hand also stopped a millimeter deep on Zhu Meng's throat sparing his life.

Ye Xiu? What is he doing here? Did he come to deal with me? Tsk. I'll go test the waters then.

Nie Li of course recognized this oldman as he had seen him a lot in the manga before but didn't show it outside. He didn't know why this old man came here but Nie Li really didn't care much especially because he knows that this Oldman was a reasonable person and also because Nie Li himself insn't afraid of him.

Nie Li looked at Ye Xiu confusedly and said, " Who the heck are you old man? This is none of your business so you better scram now before you get hurt. "

How rude!

Ye Xiu thought.

How can a child like this can be so rude to his elders? Perhaps because he didn't recognize me? But even so..

Ye Xiu arrived at the Li restaurant a few ago but didn't find Nie Li there nor Zhu Meng. After asking for awhile, Manager Li told him that Nie Li already went ouside to perhaps, confront Zhu Meng so Ye Xiu hurriedly left hoping that he wasn't too late. When he arrived, what Ye Xiu saw was a bit... unbelievable for him.

It seems like... he did come a bit late...

" Young man, I suggest you better not do anything you might regret later. Can you please put down the knife first and let Xiao Meng go? We can talk after that. " Ye Xiu said calmly.

Although Ye Xiu was confident that he can easily disarm Nie Li if he make a move, Ye Xiu chose not to do so as he didn't know yet where that expert they believe that was protecting Nie Li or how many are they. " I am Ye Xiu from the Snow Wind family and I guarantee that we can settle this peacefully. "

" Peacefully? Hahaha. This guy here wants anything but peace. He even wanted to capture me and my people earlier, who knows what he's planning to do? " Leon rebutted. " Snow Wind family? So what if you are from the Snow Wind family? Should I stop because you said it? "

Ye Xiu frowned. He didn't expect this kind of answer from Nie Li. He didn't even put the Snow Wind family on his eyes?

Ye Xiu once again used his soul force to feel his surroundings but still didn't find any strong aura nearby. This made him confused and worried. Since he can't feel their presence, does it mean that their level was above his? Thing isn't good..

Ye Xiu then turned to Nie Li but he also can't see anything unusual from him. He only had 12 soul force. Then who made Zhu Meng and his bodyguards like this? Where are they hiding? What are their numbers?

" Nie Li right? You should know that killing is a huge crime in Glory City. Killing xiao Meng will only bring a lot of trouble to you. I again suggest you stop this while you still can. " said Ye Xiu.

" Tsk. What if I won't? " Nie li probed.

Nie Li actually like this old man's character and didn't want to kill a good person like him but there should be no harm in making fun of him right?

Ye Xiu shakes his head disappointedly. " If that's the case, then.. I can only make a move and stopped you. "

" Oh, stopped me? Do you think you are strong enough? " Nie Li smirked and in the next second, he vanished.

" What!! "

Nie Li moved so fast that in the next moment he suddenly appeared in front of Ye Xiu pointing his knife on his chest. " You move, you die. You use your soul force, you die. You try integrating with your Demon Spirit, you die. Sigh, old man, it looks like you are only so so... "

" You!! "

Ye Xiu was stunned. He almost can't believe what's going on rigjt now.

How can Nie Li be so fast? This doesn't make sense at all!

Did he deliberately hid his strength all this time? How can that be?

Ye Xiu definitely checked Nie Li earlier and found out that he wasn't even a Bronze Rank yet. Not even a Bronze Rank fighter! So..... how can he move so fast?

Nie Li quite enjoyed seeing that stunned look on Ye Xiu's face. What was it again? Pretending to be a pig to eat tiger? Nie Li can not remember it well.

A Legend Rank fighter might not be a match for a Black Gold Rank Demon Spiritualist on Ye Xiu's level but that's only the case if they had integrated with their Demon Spirit form. Also, the other thing is that if they are not facing Nie Li!

What a joke. Nie Li now has a geniune Peak Legendary Rank Fighter Body, something that has not been seen in Glory City for a very long time now. That plus his ability to appear and disappear on will using his spatial garden was more than enough to deal with Ye Xiu.

What made it even more easier for Nie Li to do this was the fact that Ye Xiu himself didn't put much of his guard up towards Nie Li. Ye Xiu was too focus on sensing his surroundings as he never expected that Nie Li was powerful enough to threaten him.

" Hahaha. Please forgive me for my rudeness, Elder Ye Xiu. I'm just kidding, just kidding. Look, this thing on my hand is not even a real knife to begin with. " Nie Li laughed and applied a little more force to his knife but instead of piercing Ye Xiu's skin, it instead inserted back to its handle.

Despite the majestic and strong appearance of Nie Li's knife, it was actually... a fake knife. The one use by kids to play with! Nie Li stabbed it to Ye Xiu's chest two more times before throwing it away. He then turned around and said, " As long as Elder Ye Xiu can guarantee that that guy won't bother me and my people anymore, then you can take him away. But if not, then I hope Elder Ye Xiu will not blame me for not showing anymore mercy. "

With that said, Nie Li started walking back to the Li restaurant.

"...."

" Wait, Nie Li. " Ye Xiu called out after recovering. He finally realized what's going on here. A joke? That's not a funny joke at all!!! But he is still surprised about Nie Li's speed just now.

How did Nie Li pulled that off? Just how strong was he?

Just a 13 to 14 years old and was already this strong? They definitely have to pull this kid on their side no matter what! He can be one of the future pillars of Glory City in the future.

Just where did he came from?

" I'm still busy Elder Xiu, let's have chat next time. " Nie Li didn't stopped at all and continue moving forward. He already did what he wants to do and showed what he wanted to show, there's no point in staying here anymore. " Oh, and by the way Elder Ye Xiu, please help me deal with the Alchemist Association too. Although I am not afraid of them, I don't want to get into trouble either. I'm too lazy to deal with them. "

Hearing that, Ye Xiu can only stopped. He saw that Nie Li really didn't plan to talk to him or answer his questions. Ye Xiu also can't guess how strong Nie Li was so he didn't want to do anything rush. He has to report this to the City Lord first so they can discuss what to do.

But before that, Ye Xiu still have to deal with things here. Ye Xiu looked at the people he brought with him and ordered, " Help xiao Meng and his people to stand up. We will send them back to the Alchemist Association first. "
