"What did you just say?"
Lai Lingyao's smile faltered, doubting his own hearing.
Up on the eaves, Yinhua Lady and Yuhua Lady exchanged puzzled looks.
"Is it mere bluster, or...?"
Yinhua Lady furrowed her beautiful brows, guessing in secret.
"If you refuse a toast, you must drink a forfeit!"
Without needing Lai Lingyao's command, the eleven experts beside him made their move. Because the corridor of the room was narrow, these eleven people effectively blocked the area, leaving Shi Xiaole with no room to escape.
The two experts at the beginning stages of the Qi Absorption eighth level were the fastest to strike. One fist, one palm, mingled with roaring internal power launched at Shi Xiaole from the left and right, pushing the air in the corridor to the sides.
"Don't kill him. I want to bring him back and torture him slowly."
Fearing that his subordinates wouldn't have room to move, Lai Lingyao started retreating, directing them as he stepped back.
