Speak My Name and Make You Jump!
[A solitary emperor stands atop a mountain of corpses Blood Sea, his sword dulled, his royal armor riddled with holes, and his followers long since perished.]
[Now, he is a lone commander, a battered and weary warrior.]
Even so, the million-strong army, filled with both Human Race and Alien Race, only dared to surround him in front, blocking him on the riverbank, and dared not advance even half a step.
The soldier at the very front, his hand gripping his spear trembling, grew increasingly fearful the closer he got to the defeated emperor. His feet involuntarily swayed backward, but he was pushed along by those behind him, forced to slowly approach.
[Faced with the emperor's piercing gaze, the Alien Race feared him, and the Human Race dreaded him.]
The five members of the Tianhe Guard Team in the sky seemed to have lost their patience.
"Captain, this is wasting too much time. I'll go and catch him!"
The captain of the group was a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair and bright red lipstick.
[She was Long-Eared Race appearance was very similar to that of Human Race; apart from having a pair of pointed elven ears, she was otherwise indistinguishable from Human Race.]
"Akelie, don't be foolish. We have two missions; capturing 'I' is only one of them."
"Those who had the courage to face the Overlord Aura ' have already fallen at my feet; the remaining cowards simply cannot overcome their inner fear!"
"Heh, letting them fight like dogs isn't our goal."
Only by letting them shatter their dream of 'rebellion' with their own hands, and by letting them drag their leader down from his pedestal, can we truly break the backbone of Human Race!
Let them believe that they are only fit to be slaves, not to rise up!
This will save us from having so much extra work.
The siege lasted until sunset, during which only a few battalions launched attacks, but they still failed to kill the exhausted "I" (the emperor).
[It only made the mountain of corpses beneath "the Emperor's" feet pile up even higher.]
[The Emperor stood there, gazing ahead at his former enemies, former comrades, and former subjects, his eyes devoid of sorrow or joy.]
Indeed, he was at his last gasp, barely able to stand. He could only use a broken spear, one end stuck in the mountain of corpses, the other against his lower back, to keep himself from collapsing.
"Come on!!!"
The roar of "I, the Emperor!" startled the surrounding soldiers, causing them to retreat several steps.
[The Tianhe Guard Team couldn't stand it any longer, so the five of them slowly descended from the sky on flying magical Law Artifact that resembled skateboards.]
"I didn't expect you to be so difficult. We really don't have time to waste with you any longer. Lock him up!"
"I" know that with his current cultivation level, he cannot possibly contend with a Tianhe Guard Team.
[They are all at the Late Heaven-Reaching Stage, and their captain is even at the Immortal Lord level!]
[And "I" am only in the Mid Desperate Realm.]
[His cultivation level, combined with his Special physique and exceptional talent, is indeed sufficient for use on Tiandou Star, since there are no Heaven-Reaching Realm Cultivator on Tiandou Star.]
[But faced with this "deus ex machina" Tianhe Guard Team, "I" knew he was powerless.]
["Hahaha! You want to capture me alive! You want to behead me in front of billions of people, so you can intimidate the entire Heavenly River Galaxy and prove that Human Race rebellions will never succeed, that they always fail! Is that it?"]
"You're a smart person, but that won't change your fate."
"My destiny is solely in my own hands!!"
["I" raised his broken blade and, with lightning speed and force, slashed at his own head.]
["When!!"]
[A Source Stone, seemingly out of nowhere, struck the "I" blade, knocking it away.]
[The Source Stone couldn't withstand the violent impact and shattered instantly, bursting into a brilliant display like a firework.]
The captain of the Tianhe Guard Team glanced at his four team members.
"Did you do this?"
The four looked at each other, then at their captain.
"We thought it was you?"
[The emperor looked up at the sky.]
There was a person standing there quietly, like a cloud or a fallen leaf; inconspicuous, yet captivating.
[Upon recognizing the person, the emperor's pupils contracted, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.]
"Is it you?"
The Tianhe Guard Team also noticed an extra person at the scene.
[The five people glanced over and discovered that the newcomer possessed Late Heaven-Reaching Stage cultivation. Judging from his leisurely stroll through the air, his mastery of flight-related Divine Ability was clearly superb.]
[Though Human Race, he is by no means mediocre.]
[Therefore, even the captain, who possessed the cultivation level of Immortal Lord, still politely asked a question.]
"May Your Excellency ask who you are? Why are you obstructing my team from carrying out its official duties?"
[You stand high in the sky, arms crossed, your gaze disdainfully fixed on the Tianhe Guard Team below.]
[The Tianhe Guard Team, like the Peace Bureau, is a direct subordinate organization of the Holy Dragon Society.]
This organization can be understood as a special forces unit, composed of small action teams.
They receive and complete missions from the Holy Dragon Society in exchange for rewards or promotions.
The Tianhe Guard Team a very diverse group of races, much like a mercenary organization, so Cultivator looking to make money can join, naturally resulting in a mixed bag of individuals.
[The squad in front of us consists of only five people, but they all belong to different races, which speaks volumes.]
[You smiled slightly as the captain asked you a question.]
"Tell me my name, and I'll give you a real shock!"
[The captain, seeing you bragging, casually tossed his hair, completely unconcerned.]
"I'm really curious to know just how scary you are."
"Chen Yi!"
"Oh, never heard of it."
[Akelie, a teammate standing nearby, gasped.]
"Captain, did he say he was Chen Yi?!"
"What happened to Chen Yi?"
["Chen Yi! Captain Chen Yi! The Demon Twin Stars! The Man-Ape Bandits! The Demon Monkey and Man! The Mighty Twin Fiends! That Chen Yi!"]
[Upon hearing these titles, the captain suddenly realized.]
She took out a scroll from her Storage Ring, unrolled it, and a wanted poster appeared on it.
[This is your portrait!]
["Hiss--Are you really Chen Yi?"]
[You ignored her, and instead slowly descended from the sky, as if going down a staircase, and said to "I" (the Emperor).]
"Brother Li, it's been a long time."
Li Wentian gave a wry smile.
"I'm so embarrassed, I'm sorry you had to see me like this."
"Hahaha! Brother Li, you flatter me. To be honest, I've been in such an embarrassing situation many times myself!"
"I never imagined I'd reunite with Martial God Chen in this Real Realm. We should be drinking and chatting, pouring out our hearts to each other, but right now... I fear this hurdle will be difficult to overcome."
"Brother Li, rest assured, we will get through this! Don't let this setback dampen your spirits! As the saying goes, 'The Red Army fears not the hardships of the Long March, regarding ten thousand rivers and mountains as nothing!'"
[Your habit of suddenly reciting a line of poetry while fighting reminds Li Wentian of an old friend from the Human World.]
