The assembled experts from various sects looked at Li Xiaotian with disbelief. He was no longer the leader of the Great Qin War Department; he had completely severed ties with Great Qin.
Immediately, everyone's expressions changed drastically. Since Li Xiaotian had no further connection to Great Qin, did that mean he was no longer restrained in his actions?
In other words, his actions today were entirely his own will, with no relation to the Great Qin official government.
Upon realizing this, their faces turned somewhat pale. They had been assertive before because Li Xiaotian and Great Qin were one entity. With Great Qin's vast resources, Li Xiaotian had to consider its situation in whatever he did.
But now, he had separated himself from Great Qin and was alone. Nothing would influence his decisions.
Such a Li Xiaotian was even more terrifying. A powerful individual without any constraints was not someone even a hegemonic force would dare to provoke lightly.
Just then, Li Xiaotian spoke. He slowly ascended, stopping above the Linhai Hotel, and said unhurriedly.
"From this day forward, whatever I, Li Xiaotian, do will have no relation to Great Qin. Therefore, if any of you try to threaten me by defecting from Great Qin, I apologize, but it's useless."
Hearing Li Xiaotian's words, everyone present looked incredibly grim. They wanted to curse him. Li Xiaotian's behavior was simply shameless!
Who knew if he had truly fallen out with Great Qin? Perhaps he was doing this intentionally, bearing the infamy himself while acting against them, the ordinary sects, and Great Qin would remain Great Qin, continuing to unify Yan Province!
"Li Xiaotian!!! Don't you feel ashamed?! Everyone knows you are one with Great Qin. Do you think by doing this, you won't implicate Great Qin?! Wrong!!! If you dare to cause trouble, our sects are not to be trifled with. We are all intelligent people, don't treat us like fools!"
Someone shouted, filled with anger. When a powerful individual became shameless and broke the rules of the game, it made them feel incredibly stifled.
"Li Xiaotian, if you dare to act today, regardless of what your relationship with Great Qin is, all the sects in the world will hold Great Qin accountable! I refuse to believe that once Great Qin becomes an enemy of all, you won't care?"
Another person shouted, refusing to believe Li Xiaotian would abandon Great Qin.
"Heh!"
A hint of mockery flashed across Li Xiaotian's lips. He glanced at the few people who had spoken. If they weren't innocent, he might have already struck them down with his blade.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Li Xiaotian's aura erupted completely, and the terrifying pressure of a hegemonic-level expert filled the entire Linhai City.
In an instant, the experts from various sects present felt an immense pressure, their hearts turning cold.
"Dragon King Hall, where are you!!!"
Li Xiaotian roared. He had already stated his position: from now on, his actions would represent only himself and his Dragon King Hall!
"Boom boom boom!!!"
As Li Xiaotian spoke, powerful auras erupted from all around Linhai City, soaring into the sky.
"Dragon King Hall Commander Long Shiwu, pays respects to my King! Welcoming my King's return!!!"
To the east, Long Shiwu hovered in the air, his sword intent surging.
"Dragon King Hall Intelligence Department Commander An Mei, pays respects to my King, welcoming my King's return!!!"
To the west, An Mei, dressed in black, was heroic and imposing, her aura sharp.
"Dragon King Hall Commander Long Shibai, pays respects to my King, welcoming my King's return!!"
Following suit, powerful figures appeared in the south and north, their auras formidable.
At the same time, outside Linhai City, a thunderous roar echoed.
"Dragon King Hall Warriors, pay respects to my King, welcoming my King's return!!!"
The shouts shook the heavens and earth, enveloping Linhai City. At this moment, everyone in the city turned pale, terrified.
Welcoming my King's return! In the eyes of the Dragon King Hall members, Li Xiaotian had broken away from Great Qin, but it also meant he had returned to the Dragon King Hall!
He would lead them to conquer the four directions once more!
The Dragon King Hall, after a period of dormancy, would rise again!
"Dragon King Hall!!! They! They! Li Xiaotian, what do you intend to do?"
An expert stammered, his face pale. He thought one Li Xiaotian was terrifying enough, but he never expected Li Xiaotian to bring his Dragon King Hall with him.
Long Shiwu! An Mei! The Demon Soldier Legion! This force, let alone destroying a single Luanhai Sect, even if several sects joined forces, they would not be its match.
Li Xiaotian completely ignored his question. Instead, he continued speaking.
"All departments of the Dragon King Hall, heed my command! Seal Linhai City! All those marked by the red light, kill without mercy! Anyone who attempts to escape the blockade, kill without mercy!!!"
As he finished speaking, the blood Li Xiaotian had collected earlier in his hand began to boil. Then, it instantly evaporated, dissipating into the heavens and earth.
Simultaneously, Shen Feiyu and the others from the Luanhai Sect suddenly flashed with a faint red light.
Following that, red lights flickered throughout Linhai City; these were ordinary people who had been infected with the blood seed.
"We obey my King's command!!!"
Long Shiwu and the others responded in unison, their killing intent palpable.
"What's going on?! Li Xiaotian, have you gone mad?!"
An expert shouted, his face filled with shock. The Luanhai Sect members, the ordinary people in the city, were visibly marked with red light.
There were tens of thousands of them, and Li Xiaotian intended to kill them all!
This was no different from slaughtering a city! Those were all humans, ordinary people!
Li Xiaotian's actions were even more brutal than those of the demon race!
"Kill!!!"
The response was Li Xiaotian's low growl. Immediately, a blade swung from his hand, striking directly at Shen Feiyu.
"How dare you!!!"
"Li Xiaotian, you are indiscriminately killing innocent people, what do you want to do?"
"You've gone mad! Li Xiaotian, do you want to become an enemy of all? If you kill these people, humanity will not tolerate you!"
The experts from various sects roared in unison, their faces filled with horror. Li Xiaotian had gone mad; he truly dared to kill so many people!
"Li Xiaotian, die!!!"
Shen Feiyu roared, his expression contorted. He unleashed his full strength to resist Li Xiaotian's strike, while the sect experts around him also attacked.
"Buzz!"
However, their speed was too slow, and the gap in their strength compared to Li Xiaotian was too vast.
The blade swept across the sky, scattering figures, and in the center, Shen Feiyu was pierced through by the blade.
Shen Feiyu was dead!
"Kill!!!"
At the same time, Long Shiwu and the others also attacked, each searching for those marked with red light.
"Li Xiaotian!!! You're insane!!! Stop! Stop immediately!!!"
An expert roared, his eyes turning red. Shen Feiyu died before their eyes, the others from the Luanhai Sect were being pursued by Li Xiaotian's subordinates, and the ordinary people in the city were being massacred by the Demon Soldier Legion.
Li Xiaotian was betraying humanity!
But the slaughter continued. Li Xiaotian's blade swung rapidly, and in the air, the bodies of Imperial-level experts from the Luanhai Sect exploded one after another.
Although the subsequent experts from various sects tried to resist Li Xiaotian, they were no match for him. Some were even accidentally injured.
