Peerless God Emperor

However, if they thought that they could bind him like that, they would underestimate him too much.    

"You can try. With a single strike from me, how many people will survive in the Southern Flower Country?" Yi Sheng said blandly.    

"You dare?" Lin Yuan sneered. Threatened him?    

"Why would I not dare? Release them immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for starting a massacre." A casual voice drifted out from the mouth of Yi Sheng, as though he was merely speaking in an extremely ordinary manner. However, no one doubted his words.    

The strength of a Saint of the seventh step was not just words.    

With just a thought, the world began to collapse.    

"You want them to die here too?" The 'them' he was referring to was naturally Yue Xue and her daughter.    

"It wouldn't be a loss if the three of us were to exchange for the lives of countless people in the Southern Flower Kingdom." Yi Sheng looked at Nan Linyuan with an indifferent look and said, "You have no choice. Either let him go or die together. You choose."    

"Yi Sheng is so powerful!" The hearts of the crowd trembled. One must know that this person was within the Nanhua Empire. Logically speaking, he should be in the control of the Holy Lord, but Yi Sheng had no intentions of giving him the chance to negotiate with him.    

"Shangguan Yi, do you really think you're invincible?"    

He stared at Yi Sheng's silhouette and said, "No matter what, we won't let them go easily today. If we want someone else to join, we should sit down and talk about the terms. Otherwise, we can start the war right away, no need to waste our breath."    

As the head of the dynasty, other than having strength that reached the heavens, Southern Lin Yuan was naturally extremely powerful as well. Otherwise, he would not have been able to walk today's steps. So, it was not a simple matter to threaten him.    

"Both sides are strong and unwilling to take a step back." Gongsun Lu whispered.    

"It's not a matter of taking a step." Duan Chengtian shook his head and said, "Both Yi Sheng and Saint Nanhua know very well who the other party is. If they were to give up, not only would they lose face, they would even allow the other party to take a step forward and make even more presumptuous demands. Thus, they must show their strong and forceful side and not easily give up."    

Gongsun Lu looked at Duan Ling Tian with a slightly astonished gaze. It seemed that this fellow had seen through everything.    

A trace of deep meaning flashed across Yi Sheng's eyes. After a short while, he looked at Southern Lin Yuan and asked, "How do we negotiate the terms?"    

"Since you want us to hand over the people, then let's do it according to the rules of the Royal Sky Casino." After which, his gaze shifted towards a certain direction. The experts of Summer River and the other major powers of the Royal Sky Casino were seated there.    

When he saw that Lin Yuan was looking at him from the south, Xia He immediately stood up and clasped his hands. "I wonder what the Saint has to say?"    

"According to the rules of the Royal Sky Casino, how do you think we should handle this matter?" Lin Yuan asked.    

Xia He was stunned, he didn't understand why the Holy Emperor would ask him, a junior, about such an important matter.    

"Junior's qualifications are still too shallow and of low status. I have no right to comment on this matter. How about you let my father come? What does the Holy Lord think?" He only heard the sound of the river clasping his fists as he replied.    

"There's no need to let your father go there. Just say what you want to say." Lin Yuan replied in a nonchalant manner.    

"This …" Xia He wanted to say something but hesitated. After which, he turned his gaze towards Yi Sheng, only to see Yi Sheng also opening his mouth, "Speak."    

"Fine." Xia He respectfully nodded his head, then replied: "According to the rules of the Royal Sky Casino, if one person makes a wager, the other party takes out a wager of equal value, but that needs the approval of the other party. In the end, each party sends out one person to compete, and the wager goes to the winner."    

When the crowd heard this, a strange expression appeared on their faces. The rules didn't sound complicated, but in simple terms, it was a competition to decide who would belong to which side.    

If Yi Sheng's team won, they could take them away, but if they lost, not only could they not take them away, they would also have to pay the same amount of compensation.    

"This rule works. I have no objections." Of course, he had no objections. In truth, he did not care at all about the deaths and deaths of those who had nothing to do with him. As long as he could threaten Shangguan Yi, he had achieved his goal.    

"I agree." Yi Sheng replied, "As a witness, anyone who goes back on their word will have to bear the brunt of the nine thunderbolts."    

"Nine strikes!"    

The hearts of the crowd violently trembled, this was an extremely fearsome calamity. Even the most powerful of Saints wouldn't dare to underestimate it, let alone those at the pinnacle of Yuanfu like Yi Sheng and Nanlin Yuan.    

"Absolutely not." However, after listening to what Lin Yuan said, a sharp glint of light flickered in his eyes. Looking at Yi Sheng, he said in a low voice, "You are already a man on the verge of death. What's the point of nine thunderbolts? This oath is useless."    

"Then what do you want?" Yi Sheng knitted his eyebrows. He had originally planned to deceive them just like that, but he hadn't expected that Southern Linfen would be such a cunning old fox, and still be able to find out about it.    

"I swear on your daughter's life that if you break the agreement, she will die without a burial ground!" If there was anything else that bothered Shangguan Yi, it would be the two of them, Ming Xue and his daughter.    

As for Brightmoon Snow, she was extremely powerful, and Shangguan Yi wouldn't care too much about that. However, his daughter was only at the Emperor Realm, and there would be many dangers in the future.    

A fierce beam of light instantly appeared on Yi Sheng's face. Killing intent burst out from his body, and as he was about to get angry, he heard a gentle voice coming from below, "I am willing."    

The owner of this voice was Shangguan Yulian.    

Yi Sheng looked down at Shangguan Yushi, his heart trembling. He did not expect his daughter to be willing to accept this oath. This meant that Qin Xuan held an extraordinary position in her heart and was even willing to swear with her life.    

"Yurou, thank you." Qin Xuan said as he looked towards Shangguan Yulian. He felt extremely upset, he owed Shangguan Yulian too much.    

"It's alright. I believe that if I was in danger, Big Brother Qin would do his best to save me, right?" Shangguan Yulian smiled sweetly, her smile was very bright, it was obvious that she trusted Qin Xuan very much.    

"Yes." Qin Xuan nodded with a smile and a hint of determination in his eyes.    

"Since your daughter has agreed, then let the bet begin." Lin Yuan turned to look at Ai Hui.    

"Bring him out." Yi Sheng said in a clear voice.    

Lin Yuan turned to look at Nan Yin and instructed, "Go and bring everyone out."    

"Yes." "Yes!" Nan Yin replied. Then, he left for the palace himself to bring his men here!
