Compensation? Sure, give me your head as a compensation.

Under everyone's scrutinising gaze, Li Shenrong walked toward the guards step by step.

"Who is that kid? He dares to step up and ruin the Guard captain's business." Someone couldn't help but say.

"I don't know either, never seen him before."

"He was sitting with that guy, probably an accomplice." Spectators whispered to each other. 

"Foolish kid, he is throwing his life away. He should've just left when no one cared about him." They criticised Li Shenrong for being foolish and stupid. 

"So you are an accomplice of this little thief, ah? Good, voluntarily exposing yourself, it seems you plan to die with him. But unfortunately for you two, i was ordered to capture him alive." The guard captain gave a boisterous laughter, he didn't put Li Shenrong in his eyes at all. A no name kid like him, how strong could he be? Moreover, he was with someone like Shen Luo who was so weak. This was the capital of Blue bird kingdom, someone like Li Shenrong couldn't make any waves. 

"Go capture him for me!" Guard Captain ordered. 

The guards behind him jumped into action. They brandished their weapons and lunged at Li Shenrong. 

Li Shenrong didn't move from his place. He just stretched his hand forward and slapped. 

A dull sound echoed. Everyone could only see, Li Shenrong stretching out his palm in a slapping motion and then, one of the guard's head exploded like watermelon. Blood splashed like paint, dying the tavern's wall in crimson red. 

Seeing this, all of the guards halted their footsteps. They were bewildered because no one saw how Li Shenrong did it. 

Shen Luo's eyes glowed with hope. He prayed in his heart for Li Shenrong to win and save his daughter. 

The guard captain frowned slightly but still angrily yelled. "What are you all doing, standing there like statues? Go capture him for me!" 

The guards woke up from their trance and viciously stared at Li Shenrong. They were angry at him because he had just killed one of their comrades. 

"Brat, accept your capture." One guard jumped and shouted. 

"Ants." Li Shenrong disdainfully snorted, sending out a palm shot. 

A small Qi palm imprint manifested in the air and crashed toward the guard. It was extremely fast and swift. 

The guard tried to block it with his hands but the palm was heavy as a mountain. Bones breaking sound echoed, he screamed pitifully as his body flew out like a broken doll. 

The tavern's wall broke down like paper. Several guards flew out screaming like a pig being slaughtered while blood spraying from their body and mouth. Their body hit the ground and didn't move. No one knew if they were dead of alive. 

Rest of the guards looked at Li Shenrong fearfully with alarmed gazes. None of them dared to approach at all. 

This commotion attracted the gazes of many bystanders. Everyone looked at the scene curiously. They recognised the guard captain but no one knew Li Shenrong. They could only speculate about his identity. 

Inside the tavern, spectators who were waiting for Li Shenrong to be captured, were dumbfounded. They didn't think the inconspicuous young man would be so strong. He took care of dozens of city guards with ease.

"Could he be from a prestigious family?" 

"If so, then this time, the guard captain hit an iront plate." They couldn't wait to see. 

Li Shenrong glanced at the guards who suppressed Shen Luo.

All of them instantly died with foam coming out of their mouth. 

Li Shenrong was someone who could strike fear in the heart of immortals. So, how could these pitiful guards could block his mental attack? Their only fate was death.

The guard captain felt alarmed. He cautiously took out a bronze shield. It was a Heaven congregation realm shield. Probably given by his older brother. 

"Diee!" He jumped and slammed the shield at Li Shenrong. The shield was quite huge in size, bigger than five person combined. 

As soon as the shield appeared, everyone could feel its heaviness. Ground collapsed and the tavern house broke down. The guard captain didn't dare to be careless as he used all of his strength into the attack. 

A loud boom sound rang in the air, making the ground vibrate for a long time. 

"Success!" He became ecstatic after the successful hit. He believed no one could survive under his one shield slam. The ground beneath the guard captain had a spider web like crack because of the shields heaviness. 

"Hum?" He felt something amiss and created some distance from where he stood. 

Dust and debris scattered everywhere but everyone saw a figure standing upright without moving.

"Finish playing?" He smiled and said.

Seeing Li Shenrong standing there unscathed, the guard captian became horrified. He activated a powerful escape technique and ran away. 

"Where do you think you are going?" He couldn't go too far but Li Shenrong already appeared in-front of him like a ghost. Cold sweat dropped down from his forehead. 

"Senior, everything was just a misunderstanding. I will compensate with whatever you want." He couldn't help but say. 

"Misunderstanding? Compensation? Sure. Give me your head as a compensation. Then i will call it even." Li Shenrong said as he stood in air with hands behind his back. He looked down on the guard captain from above.

Seeing that Li Shenrong have no intention to let him go, he yelled and threatened. 

"Brat, my brother is a royal guard. If something happens to me. He won't let you go."

"I will be waiting, if he comes, i'll flay his skin and pull out his spine." Li Shenrong's words echoed loudly. Natives of the capital heard it and sucked in a cold breath of air. 

Such audacious remark! Daring to threaten a royal guard is the same as going against the imperial family. 

Li Shenrong made a grabbing motion with his hand. A huge Qi hand manifested in the air which grabbed the captain like a chicken. He wanted to retaliate but couldn't.
