"This is Heavenly Origin City on Heavenly Origin Star, the territory of Heavenly Origin Divine Lord. You're merely a Six-Star Ancestral God. Do you really think you can do whatever you please?"
Li Xing drew his warblade, a cold, vicious smile curling his lips, as though he would strike and kill Qin Hao the very next instant.
"If I were you, I would leave immediately." Qin Hao shook his head slightly. Heavenly Origin Divine Lord's territory?
Never mind merely being in Heavenly Origin City—even if Heavenly Origin Divine Lord stood before him, he would not dare say such a thing.
"You're courting death!"
Li Xing flew into a rage. Qin Hao's words went beyond arrogance; he simply did not take Li Xing seriously at all.
It was naked contempt.
Qin Hao ignored Li Xing's fury. Just as Li Xing was about to strike, Qin Hao said coolly, "Flowing Golden Sand isn't particularly precious. The Heavenly Origin Empire forbids trading it?"
Taken aback by Qin Hao's sudden words, Li Xing paused briefly, then sneered viciously. "Now you're afraid?"
To Li Xing, Qin Hao was clearly backing down. He was still somewhat angry, but considering Qin Hao's cultivation realm...
Li Xing paused, then said coldly, "Since you're an outsider, I don't mind telling you. In the past, Flowing Golden Sand could naturally be traded freely. But half a month ago, His Majesty issued an order..."
"All Flowing Golden Sand must be surrendered to the imperial treasury. No one may keep any in private. Violators will be killed without mercy!"
By the end, Li Xing's voice had turned utterly icy. He gazed arrogantly at Qin Hao. As the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard in Heavenly Origin City...
Within the Heavenly Origin Empire...
Li Xing possessed unquestionable authority. Even visiting Seven-Star Ancestral Gods
