I Break through Crazily

Upon hearing this, Qiu Wenguang stared at Tang Yi in astonishment. He suspected his ears were playing tricks on him. But when he saw the same ghost-like expressions on his brothers’ faces, Qiu Wenguang knew he hadn’t misheard. Tang Yi had indeed stated this absurd condition!

Never mind the kowtowing part. Just the last demand for compensation—one Earth Tier item from each person—was an absolutely exorbitant price!

Which Earth Tier item wasn’t worth a fortune? Which one wasn’t incredibly rare?

Among their entire Qianxi Mercenary Corps, only Qiu Wenguang possessed an Earth Tier Lower Grade Cultivation Technique. And he had only obtained it after being a mercenary his entire life and spending all his savings!

And now this young man was demanding an Earth Tier item from each of them as compensation right off the bat?

’If this wasn’t crazy, what was?’

Moreover, demanding that every member of the Qianxi Mercenary Corps perform ten loud kowtows was too much.

The Qianxi Mercenary Corps was, after all, a well-known mercenary corps in the Western Domain. If word got out that they had collectively kowtowed to a Low-level Mercenary Corps, how could they continue to survive in the Mercenary Realm? How could they show their faces in public? Wouldn’t they be laughed to death?

Neither of these two conditions was acceptable, not to Qiu Wenguang, and not to the Qianxi Mercenary Corps.

”Young man, are you serious? We can agree to compensate and apologize, but your two conditions are simply too excessive. Please forgive us, but we are unable to do it,” Qiu Wenguang said, his expression turning ugly as he immediately refused.

”’Unable to do it? So you’re planning on making an enemy of me?’ Tang Yi’s tone turned cold. His previous easy-going demeanor vanished, replaced by an incomparably icy expression.”

”You! Kid, don’t push it too far!”

Hearing Tang Yi’s words, Qiu Wenguang’s temper flared.

’This Tang Yi is really pushing his luck!’

If he hadn’t been unable to see through Tang Yi’s strength, he might have already attacked and killed this kid!

However, although he didn’t dare to strike, Qiu Wenguang couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart. His true colors showed, and his tone toward Tang Yi became exceptionally hostile.

”Boss, we don’t need to be afraid of this kid. He’s so young, he can’t be that capable!”

”He actually dared to make our Qianxi Mercenary Corps kowtow and even threatened us to hand over an Earth Tier item each. Heh, kid, you should’ve asked around. Is our Qianxi Mercenary Corps so easy to bully?”

”Damn it, I’ve had a bad feeling about this kid from the start. As soon as he arrived, he acted like he was some big shot, and his tone with us had no trace of respect. Heh, I’d like to see what kind of skills this kid actually has to be so arrogant and look down on people!”

”Boss, teach him a lesson! We’re not afraid of him!”

”Yeah, no need to fear him!”

”...”

The members of the Qianxi Mercenary Corps also roared one after another, each one filled with righteous indignation. It seemed Tang Yi’s proposed conditions had truly provoked them.

”Enough.”

Qiu Wenguang interrupted the crowd. Before he could figure out Tang Yi’s true strength, he didn’t want to clash with him so quickly.

After all, it wasn’t uncommon for a master to be defeated by an underdog. He had to be careful.

”Young man, I accept your terms of apology. After all, it was our fault for injuring your man. But the two conditions you’ve proposed are far too harsh. We truly cannot meet them. Why don’t you propose something else? As long as it’s within our ability, we will definitely do as you say to your satisfaction. How does that sound?” Qiu Wenguang’s tone softened again as he continued to negotiate with Tang Yi.

”’Alright. Seeing as you’re so sincere, I’m not an unreasonable person. I can now give you two options for your apology,’ Tang Yi said.”

”Oh? What options?” Hearing that there was some leeway, Qiu Wenguang immediately asked.

Tang Yi sneered and continued, ”The first option is the same two conditions for atonement as before. The second option... each of you will cripple your own hands and retire from the Mercenary Realm forever!”

”What? You!”

Qiu Wenguang was once again stunned by Tang Yi’s audacity!

He pointed at Tang Yi, speechless for a long moment.

’This isn’t about making us atone at all; he’s just looking for trouble!’

This second option was even more outrageous than the first!

They had only injured one person, yet he demanded that everyone in the Qianxi Mercenary Corps cripple their own hands?

’If this wasn’t looking for trouble, what was?’

The members of the Qianxi Mercenary Corps were also furious when they heard this. They felt that Tang Yi was too arrogant and condescending. He didn’t want an apology at all; he was just toying with them!

”You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? You deliberately want to oppose our Qianxi Mercenary Corps, right? You’re just messing with us, right?” Qiu Wenguang said coldly.

”’That’s right, you’ve got it. I am just messing with you!’ Tang Yi smiled and replied nonchalantly.”

”You! Heh heh, fine, fine, fine!”

Furious, Qiu Wenguang let out a cold laugh and repeated the word ”fine” three times. Then he turned his head and said to two burly mercenaries from the Qianxi Mercenary Corps, ”Since this kid is so arrogant, looks down on us so much, and wants to cause trouble for us, then we won’t waste any more words on him. You two, go test him out. If you can, teach him a little lesson and let him know that our Qianxi Mercenary Corps is not to be trifled with!”

”Yes!”

The two chosen mercenaries nodded and then walked toward Tang Yi with menacing expressions.

”Heh heh, I’ve been wanting to teach this kid a lesson for a while now. So what if he can fly? He’s so young, he can’t be a Battle King Powerhouse. He probably just used some special Flying Skill.”

”I really have to thank the boss for this opportunity. I’ll be sure to ’apologize’ properly to this young man!”

The two burly mercenaries cracked their knuckles and spoke with cold sneers.

Meanwhile, when Tang Yi saw the two burly mercenaries approaching, he didn’t even lift an eyelid. His face was full of indifference, as if the two approaching figures weren’t burly mercenaries, but two weak ants that could be crushed with a single stomp.

He completely ignored the two approaching mercenaries.

”Hmph!”

Seeing Tang Yi’s nonchalant expression, the two burly mercenaries were extremely displeased. They both snorted coldly, quickened their pace, and charged toward Tang Yi with even greater ferocity.

They clenched their fists, gathering their Power, ready to make Tang Yi pay the price for looking down on them!

After all, one of them was a Three-star Battle Spirit and the other was a Five-star Battle Spirit. In their daily lives, they were considered rare experts. Even a Battle King at Qiu Wenguang’s Level would have to use his True abilities to deal with the two of them. Yet now, they were being looked down upon by a young Martial Artist. Who could stand for that?

Without wasting any more words, the two of them rushed in front of Tang Yi, each throwing a punch straight at him.

The two massive fists were incredibly fierce, kicking up gusts of wind.

But...

”So weak...”

Tang Yi merely uttered this one phrase. Then, as if swatting away flies, he casually waved his hand. Instantly, the two burly mercenaries’ massive fists stopped mid-air. Not only did they fail to hit Tang Yi, but after being swatted by his hand, their bodies shot out like cannonballs.

WHOOSH!

The Speed at which they flew was incredibly fast, accompanied by a series of sonic booms.

Just like that, under everyone’s gaze, the two burly mercenaries flew up into the sky and eventually vanished over the horizon. No one knew how far they had flown or where they had gone. In short, they were gone, completely and utterly vanished, without a single trace... The only thing they left behind was the sound of their shrill and terrified cries for help just before they disappeared.
