I was amused by his words. "Apologize? Okay… I apologize, I apologize. Lin Zhao, set up the camera and livestream my apology."

At first, the old man across from me thought he'd misheard, "Li Po, what did you say…?"

Someone beside him said, "He said he's going to apologize!"

"So what if he's the Lang Wang (Wolf King) of Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall)? Before public opinion, even a real dragon can't survive unscathed."

"If he doesn't bow his head, Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) won't be able to move an inch in the world of术道 (shudao, the esoteric arts)."

Only then did the old man feel relieved, waiting smugly for my public apology.

Lin Zhao's face, however, paled with fright. "Li Po, are you really… really going to…?"

"Of course," I said with a faint smile. "So many people in the world of 术道 (shudao, the esoteric arts) are after me; I have to show some kind of attitude, right?"

"Besides, before, those people were just attacking me online. Now that I've finally met someone in person, I have to thank them properly."

I pointed forward. "Look, even if you don't livestream, someone has already set up equipment. They're going to film everything."

Seeing this, Lin Zhao gritted her teeth and mounted her phone on the car.

The old man across from me smiled. "Everything's ready. Go ahead!"

He wasn't worried that I would suddenly become violent and kill someone.

Because he knew very well that Jianghu (the martial world) people couldn't do things completely in the open.

No matter how crazy Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) was, they couldn't livestream a murder.

Otherwise, Liangjie Tang (Two Realms Hall) would end up being wanted by everyone.

After I smiled, I took two steps forward, and with a simultaneous flick of both hands, eight gold Qian Biao (money darts) whistled out, smashing all the phones I could see into pieces.

"Kill!" I roared and unleashed both blades, slashing straight at the other side.

The few术士 (shushi, occult practitioners) closest to me didn't react for a moment. It wasn't until my blade was upon them that they tried to draw their weapons to block, but the moment their blades were raised, they were cut into four pieces, man and blade together, by Ziye's blade.

Lingzhou Gate was too confident.

They thought they were speaking for the Jianghu (martial world) by coming with popular support.

In reality, they were just a joke caught between me and my opponents.

Jianghu (martial world) people wanted to use Lingzhou Gate to test my attitude.

I wanted to use the corpses of an entire sect to make certain people give up their unrealistic fantasies.

Lingzhou Gate was doomed from the moment it appeared, but they still thought they could use this to become famous!

The old man opposite me watched as the scene suddenly erupted into bloodshed and violence before he finally reacted. He pushed forward with his palms, trying to block me outside the circle and buy time for his disciples to escape.

Ye Yang's cold flames, however, stirred up a sky full of silver lightning, ferociously attacking the crowd. The sharp whistling of the sword Qi (energy) sounded like the wails of wronged souls, rolling towards the crowd like waves.

Wherever Ye Yang passed, blood surged like a tide, and figures fell one after another.

Lin Zhao hesitated for only a moment before joining the battle. Her figure shot up from the ground, gliding several meters through the air, her hands like hooks, swooping down from the sky towards Jiao Jian.

Just as Lin Zhao's move was about to play out, Jiao Jian suddenly raised his head and gave Lin Zhao a strange smile.

The moment Lin Zhao's eyes met his, she knew she'd fallen into a trap, but it was too late to control her body. She could only forcibly exert her strength, grabbing at Jiao Jian from the air.

As expected, Lin Zhao's left hand pierced into Jiao Jian's Tianling (crown of the head). When she tried to pull back, she felt as if her fingers were stuck in his bones, unable to be withdrawn. She could only land in front of Jiao Jian.

The moment Lin Zhao's feet touched the ground, a strange, bloody light flashed in Jiao Jian's eyes.

A blood-colored shadow escaped from Jiao Jian's features and lunged straight at Lin Zhao's face.

Lin Zhao's hand was still pressed on Jiao Jian's head, and she was so close to him that she couldn't avoid the ghost's sudden attack. Moreover, because she had exhausted her Zhenqi (true energy) in her previous move, she couldn't even use the tongue-blade as a last resort.

In a critical moment, Nie Xiaochun suddenly appeared in front of Lin Zhao, clapping her hands together and shattering the ghost shadow that had attacked Lin Zhao.

As the eerie green fire fell to the ground, Lin Zhao shattered Jiao Jian's skull, her fingertips stained with blood as she slashed at the crowd.

In just over ten minutes, Lingzhou Gate was littered with corpses, and the old man who had spoken to me was also chopped off both hands and trampled on the ground.

I crouched down and said, "You wanted me to apologize? Think again!"

"When you get to the King of Hell's place, don't forget to sue those who brought you here. Without them, you wouldn't have died."

I casually slashed off his head with a knife. "Let's go!"

After Lin Zhao got into the car, she said, "Li Po, is it really okay for you to do this? I feel like…"

Before Lin Zhao could finish speaking, she received a call from Chen Shuyu. "The video of you destroying Lingzhou Gate has spread all over the internet. We can't suppress it."

Lin Zhao's face immediately turned pale. "That's bad, someone with ulterior motives used us. Should we avoid the limelight for a while?"

I laughed. "There's no need. As soon as this video comes out, Zhu Zining's information network will be gone!"

It took Lin Zhao a long time to understand what I was saying. "What do you mean?"

I handed the phone to Lin Zhao. "See for yourself!"
