The Perverted Evil Cultivator

Chapter 97: Boundless arrogance



Chapter 97: Boundless arrogance

After Bai Long finished saying those three words, the whole throne room was sent into a state of silence due to fear and shock. 

As for Tao Xiang who brought Bai Long here, his knees had turned completely weak and started buckling and looked like they would collapse due to the pressure he was feeling at any moment. 

"You.... Are you drunk?!!!"

"Submit or perish? Who do you think you are brat?"

"Others might be afraid of your Bai Kingdom, but not me! I'll kill you right here!"

Ignoring everyone around the throne room who were the various generals, eunuchs, and ministers, Bai Long continued looking towards Zhu Zemin. 

"Why are you not answering fat King? Did you not hear me?"

'Fuck! Fuck!! Fuck!!!'

Cursing Bai Long louder by the second on the inside Tao Xiang wanted to nothing more than rip that insolent tongue out of his mouth. 

"How dare you call his Majesty fat? Die!!!"

As one of the men who was most likely a general, due to his cultivation being in the Qi Ant stage, started running towards Bai Long. 

Not even flinching due to the pressure, or stepping back to evade the punch which would blow his head into pieces if struck, Bai Long continued to calmly look straight towards Zhi Zemin. 

In fact, Bai Long was so calm that even the one who was attacking him started to feel that something was wrong, and maybe that the prince who looked like a mortal was actually an expert in the hiding. 

Luckily, before his punch could hit Bai Long, and let everyone know if Bai Long was truly strong, or all of this was fake bravado, the man who was sitting on the throne stomped his foot. 

"Stop!"

Along with the voice, an invisible pressure exerted from the King at the centre of it and stopped the man, and his punch in its tracks. 

"Step back."

'Shit!'

Sensing that pressure Bai Long cursed inwardly at his single wrong estimation. 

Zhu Zemin was a Qi Child! 

The difference between a Qi Ant Cultivator and a Qi Child Cultivator was just a single stage, but the disparity was very big. 

Consider that a Qi Ant Cultivator could duke out 10 tonnes of power in one punch. 

Strong right? 

A Qi Child Cultivator on the other hand, could exert the same strength with a single finger. 

Of course, a Qi Ant Cultivator couldn't punch with a power of 1o tonnes. This was just how Bai Long considered the difference between a Qi Ant Cultivator and a Qi Child Cultivator. 

Therefore, with Zhu Zemin being in the Qi Child Stage, unless Bai Long could bring at least 100 Qi Ant Cultivators with him, and attack Zhu Zemin without caring for the losses, it was impossible to try and defeat him. 

That was the cruel reality of going against a strong cultivator. 

You either need to be stronger than your enemy, or rich enough to afford the losses which would they would incur from going against the stronger one. 

Still, this wouldn't change Bai Long's plans by much. 

"It seems like you've made a decision. What will it be? Submit, or perish?"

Not saying anything and only observing Bai Long with narrowed eyes, Zhu Zemin couldn't understand where the boy got his confidence from. 

Not even flinching in face of an attack which would've killed him ten times over? Not even he would dare try that. 

And he was a bonafide Qi Child Realm Cultivator! 

"Is the Bai Kingdom set on going to war with us?"

"Yes."

"Is there no choice?"

"Of course there is. Submit."

Using all the patience he obtained over the years, Zhu Zemin didn't think much of the way Bai Long spoke and said, "Fine. In that case, why don't we send out the best fighter from each of our side, and decide the victory based on who wins?"

Shaking his head decisively, Bai Long directly rejected the suggestion. 

Not to mention how he would obviously use since Zhu Zemin would most likely personally fight. There was another reason due to which Bai Long wouldn't accept the proposition, even if he had someone stronger than Zhu Zemin under him. 

"Oh please, fat King. Don't make me laugh."

Shrugging his shoulder with an exaggerated head shaking, Bai Long continued with a disdainful look. 

"We both know such stupid fights are meaningless. If my fighter wins, you won't accept the result. And if your fighter wins, I won't accept the result."

"So why bother with such crap?"

Not saying anything the King once again felt that the current Bai Kingdom was too mysterious to him. 

It wasn't just because of seeing Bai Long, and the way he wasn't even worried about dying. 

There was also that one incident which in retrospect was a trap capable of destroying three fourth of his army. 

Due to Bai Long having the Bai Kingdom's spies spread the news of civil war taking place inside their Kingdom, and the possibility of a decisive battle which would leave it very weakened, all the Kingdoms were quite eagerly waiting for that day to come. 

And, since the Zhu Kingdom was the closest one to the Bai Kingdom. 

As soon as the news of Bai Wang dying reached Zhu Zemin, he made almost all of his army launch attack on the Bai Kingdom. 

Luckily, before the army went too far, his spies inside the Bai Kingdom hastily came back and made them stop by saying the Bai Kingdom was in full strength. 

Therefore, other than making his army retreat, Zhu Zemin was sure that everything that happened was a trap laid by someone inside the Bai Kingdom to collectively weaken all the Kingdoms that launch an attack against them. 

If it wasn't for the spies who managed to share the information with each of their respective Kingdoms, who knows how different the power structure inside the Xiao Dao Kingdom would've been right now. 

From that day onwards, Zhu Zemin continued to maintain a state of alertness towards the Bai Kingdom and even made more spies infiltrate them in hopes of staying one step ahead of whoever it was that made that plan.
