But now, I can give you a chance. I admire your courage. If you kneel down and surrender now, I will let you follow me. In the future, when we go to the capital, you will rise to the top in no time. Are you interested?

Ji Xiao stared at Ye Qiu, his imposing presence like that of a young king.

"If you were my mount, I might consider it."

Ye Qiu sneered.

"You're the kind of person who won't listen to reason and will have to suffer the consequences. You're so stubborn and incorrigible that even a celestial being couldn't save you."

After Ji Xiao finished speaking, he turned to look at the old man and slowly uttered two words: "Kill him."

"As you command."

The old man suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with a sharp light, like an old god awakening.

This grandmaster-level figure was Ji Xiao's greatest source of confidence during his trip to the North.

As soon as his aura spread, everyone present felt as if a huge mountain was hanging above their heads, ready to fall at any moment, pressing down on them as if they were suffocating.

"Such a powerful aura! Could this be a peerless grandmaster, above the grandmaster level?" a martial arts practitioner exclaimed in surprise.

“That’s right, Elder Wang is a Grandmaster. Moreover, he broke into this realm twenty years ago. After twenty years of hard work, he has even touched the threshold of the Martial God realm. Ye Qiu is courting death, so don’t blame me, Ji Xiao, for not giving him a way out.”

Ji Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, as if he had everything under control.

Everyone was shocked to receive a definite response.

"Ye Qiu is doomed."

"He became a Grandmaster twenty years ago. Such a super expert can remain undefeated even when competing with others of the same realm."

"Ye Qiu is really courting death."
