Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: A Show of Force?

Wu Rulong acted immediately and quickly launched a series of actions targeting the Li Clan Dynasty. Within just one month, the industries under the Li Clan Dynasty suffered heavy losses.

Upon hearing this news, Li Xu Kun's expression instantly turned extremely grim. He clearly hadn't expected the Wu Clan Commerce to dare to make a move against his Li Clan Dynasty.

"Something's not right, absolutely not right. The Wu Clan Commerce dares to attack my Li Clan Dynasty; they must have something to rely on behind them. Perhaps they're just waiting for my Li Clan Dynasty to fall into their trap."

Li Xu Kun knew deeply that the more critical the situation, the calmer he needed to be. He couldn't let temporary anger lead to the downfall of the entire Li Clan Dynasty.

Now that the Wu Clan Commerce dared to act so brazenly against the Li Clan Dynasty's industries, it was likely that there was a powerful existence behind them giving the Wu Clan Commerce the confidence to confront him.

Taking a deep breath, Li Xu Kun suppressed his anger, then waved his hand and summoned a servant.

"Arrange it. I will visit the Wu Clan Commerce as a guest in three days."

"Yes, Emperor."

"Wu Clan Commerce, I want to see what kind of demons and monsters are behind you. You'd best not be enemies with my Li Clan Dynasty, otherwise, I don't mind asking Old Ancestor to eliminate you!"

As he said this, terrifying killing intent erupted from Li Xu Kun's body. His Peak Stage Saint King Realm cultivation gave him the confidence to do anything.

Meanwhile, Wu Rulong quickly received this news, and a playful look appeared on his face.

"Interesting, they still dare to come? If that's the case, then let's give him a show of force!"

With the confidence given by his father, Wu Rulong was fearless. Especially since the previous man had tried to kill him, how could Wu Rulong have a good attitude towards Li Xu Kun, the mastermind behind it?

Soon, Time arrived three days later. Li Xu Kun stood before the Imperial Hall, waved his large hand, and the next second, nine incredibly massive figures were seen flying from afar. They were nine Flood Dragons, their aura all at the Great Saint Peak.

This was the exclusive vehicle for the ruler of the Li Clan Dynasty when traveling, the Nine Dragon Palanquin.

Li Xu Kun's divine sense moved, and the next second he appeared on the Nine Dragon Palanquin. The nine Great Saint Peak Flood Dragons roared, their terrifying dragon calls echoing throughout the entire Li Clan Dynasty palace.

They then flew towards the Wu Clan Commerce. If not to give the Wu Clan Commerce a bit of deterrence, Li Xu Kun would not have used the Nine Dragon Palanquin for travel, as the cost was simply too great.

Beside Li Xu Kun, several Saint King guards were also following him towards the Wu Clan Commerce. Although Great Saint Peak wouldn't be of much use if they encountered a problem that Li Xu Kun couldn't solve, the main purpose was for them to act when it was inconvenient for Li Xu Kun to do so.

After all, what was Li Xu Kun's status? He couldn't possibly do everything himself, could he?

Soon, Li Xu Kun arrived at the Wu Clan Commerce on the Nine Dragon Palanquin, surrounded by a group of Saint King guards. However, upon reaching the entrance of the Wu Clan Commerce headquarters, Li Xu Kun's expression couldn't help but turn grim.

He saw that the entrance of the Wu Clan Commerce was no different from usual; they clearly weren't giving him, Li Xu Kun's, arrival any face.

Thinking of this, Li Xu Kun's anger grew even stronger. The Wu Clan Commerce had better not let me discover that you are deceiving me, otherwise, I will eradicate the entire Wu Clan Commerce!

Soon, as a thought fell from Li Xu Kun, one of the Saint King guards arrived above the Wu Clan Commerce, his voice booming like thunder.

"The Emperor has arrived in person! Why aren't you of the Wu Clan Commerce coming out quickly to greet him?"

Li Xu Kun originally thought that he had given the Wu Clan Commerce enough face, and that Wu Rulong should also give him some face and come out to greet him. However, there was still no movement whatsoever within the Wu Clan Commerce.

Just as Li Xu Kun was about to get angry, he saw a figure slowly walk out from within the Wu Clan Commerce, then looked up at Li Xu Kun and the others in the sky. With no trace of fear on his face, he spoke.

"Since the Emperor has arrived, please come in. However, not everyone can follow. The Emperor can only bring three guards with him."

The one who stepped out was Wu Family's third generation, Wu Qiankun. After receiving news from Wu Rulong, he had come to the Wu Clan Commerce to help.

Of course, in reality, after learning that the Li Clan Dynasty was targeting their Wu Clan Commerce, Wu Qiankun's heart was still very anxious. However, after hearing from his father that his grandpa was very powerful and there was no need to worry about a small Li Clan Dynasty, Wu Qiankun dared to step forward.

Naturally, the current Wu Qiankun was merely a small Peak Stage Nascent Soul cultivator, so he was still somewhat afraid when facing Li Xu Kun and the others. After all, any one of Li Xu Kun and the others in the sky could kill him countless times with just a sneeze.

Seeing Wu Qiankun go inside, Li Xu Kun's expression also turned grim. He clearly hadn't expected that even with him personally showing up, the Wu Clan Commerce still wouldn't give him any face.

"Emperor, the Wu Clan Commerce is so ignorant of what's good for it! Why should we still give them face? Let's just attack!"

A Supreme Early Stage military general who had arrived with Li Xu Kun had an extremely grim expression. He came before Li Xu Kun and suggested.

However, it was clear that Wu Rulong's actions made Li Xu Kun even more wary. If he didn't have absolute certainty, how could he dare to be so arrogant?

"Everyone, stand by. Chen Ze, Yuwen Qiang, Wang Feng, you three follow me in!"

The three people Li Xu Kun mentioned were his confidantes, all at the Supreme Early Stage cultivation.

Upon hearing Li Xu Kun's words, although the others were still unwilling, they could only choose to wait outside.

Li Xu Kun, accompanied by Chen Ze and the other two, arrived at the entrance of the Wu Clan Commerce and then saw the envoy of the Wu Clan Commerce.

The envoy said with a polite smile on his face.

"You must be the Emperor, right? Emperor, please follow me!"

Having said that, he walked directly towards the depths of the Wu Clan Commerce, and Li Xu Kun and the others could only follow.

Soon, Li Xu Kun and the others arrived in the depths of the Wu Clan Commerce. Here, Wu Rulong had already prepared a table full of food and drinks. Upon seeing Li Xu Kun, he still sat in the main seat, saying with a smile on his face.

"This must be the Emperor. Emperor, please take a seat."

"How dare you! The Emperor has arrived in person, and you still dare to sit?"

Chen Ze was naturally short-tempered. Upon seeing Wu Rulong's disrespect, he immediately became angry and was about to attack when he was stopped by Li Xu Kun.

"Emperor?"

Chen Ze asked in confusion, while Li Xu Kun took a deep breath, his eyes filled with depth as he looked at Wu Rulong.

He could feel that although the Wu Rulong before him was only at the Peak Stage Tribulation Transcendence, he carried a faint sense of threat. It was this sense of threat that told Li Xu Kun that Wu Rulong was definitely not simple!
