Chapter 525 You Will Despair

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Under Li Xiaotian's oppressive aura, the four monks from the Thunderfire Buddhist Sect knelt down, their knees digging into the ground with crisp sounds.

Witnessing this, everyone present was stunned once again. The events of the day had shaken the hearts of the town residents. They had never imagined that the exalted Holy Buddhas would find themselves in such a wretched state.

"Damn it!!!"

"Presumptuous!!!"

"Benefactor, you've gone too far!!!"

The four monks roared, their faces filled with humiliation and hatred. Being forced to their knees in front of so many commoners was a disgrace! This feeling was worse than death!

"Oh? I've gone too far? Is that all? Believe it or not, I have even more ways to bully you?"

Li Xiaotian smiled, his expression harmless, but his eyes filled with playfulness and disdain.

Seeing Li Xiaotian like this, the four monks felt an inexplicable chill. At this moment, everyone calmed down, and beads of cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

The fact that this young man could make them unable to resist with mere aura pressure was enough to prove the terrifying strength of the opponent!

And what were they doing? They had dared to provoke him earlier, which was practically seeking their own demise! After all, one of their companions had been easily crushed and killed before their very eyes.

Yet, because of their pride, they had dared to provoke him, undoubtedly toying with death itself!

However, even knowing that the young man before them was powerful, they were still filled with unwillingness and humiliation.

"Benefactor, this humble monk knows that the four of us are no match for you. If you wish to kill us, it would be a mere flick of your wrist. But has Benefactor considered where we are? Has Benefactor considered whether he alone can bear the consequences of today's actions?"

The gaunt monk took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He knew it was not the time to further enrage the young man before him.

Otherwise, they might truly perish.

With their sect's reinforcements arriving soon, they could still turn the tables. It would be too much of a loss to die now.

However, even though they were yielding inwardly, they still wanted to save face, to make the young man before them understand what he was doing! To let him know that he had already provoked an invincible enemy!

"Heh, this question shouldn't be answered by me, but by you. Are you, or rather, your Thunderfire Buddhist Sect, prepared to bear the consequences of provoking me?"

Li Xiaotian retorted, glancing at the horizon. The reinforcements from the Thunderfire Buddhist Sect should be arriving soon, and it would be a good opportunity to test the strength of the ancient forces in Buddha State.

Caught off guard by Li Xiaotian's retort, the gaunt monk and the other three were stunned, finding it almost unbelievable. Did this young man know what he was saying?

He, a single person, was dismissing an entire sect. This was simply too arrogant!

"Benefactor, if I were you, I wouldn't ask such a question at this moment."

The gaunt monk shook his head, giving Li Xiaotian a deep look, hoping the young man could still smile later. Provoking their Thunderfire Buddhist Sect meant certain death!

"Think I'm speaking falsehoods? Very well, when your reinforcements arrive, I will show you what true despair is."

Li Xiaotian's tone was mocking. A mere ordinary Buddhist sect in Buddha State, why would he care? He wouldn't even bother to make a move; handing it over to Long Shiwu and the others would be enough to annihilate hundreds of such sects.

Upon hearing this, a flicker of shock flashed through the eyes of the gaunt monk and the other three. This young man actually knew they had reinforcements!

Under such circumstances, his continued arrogance either meant he had the strength to protect himself, or he was truly powerful, so powerful that he simply didn't care about the Thunderfire Buddhist Sect.

However, the latter possibility was very slim. After all, the entire sect of Buddhas had been dispatched this time. No matter how strong the opponent was, he would regret it here.

"Since Benefactor has discovered our prior little actions, we hope Benefactor will not disappoint us later."

The gaunt monk spoke, devoid of any anger this time. It was all because he didn't want to enrage Li Xiaotian any further, simply out of fear of death.

"Don't worry, you will soon despair."

Li Xiaotian smiled, looking towards the sky. At the edge of the heavens, dozens of golden figures suddenly appeared. The powerhouses of the Thunderfire Buddhist Sect had arrived!
