That's so interesting!

The last time he was assassinated was by Ashina Xiuli, but he was easily killed by him. He never expected to encounter someone with guts again. Lin Yi's eyes immediately became playful.

To Asam, that smile was utterly foolish.

He sneered, "Arrogant fool, you will pay the price—the price of death!"

Although he wasn't the strongest warrior Moses had ever been, he had launched a sneak attack, and his opponent not only didn't dodge but even dared to lewdly laugh, which was simply courting death.

Since you dare to underestimate me, then die here.

At that moment, he unleashed unprecedented power, instantly rushing to Lin Yi's side. Then, with a sudden thrust of his dagger, he prepared to strike straight at Lin Yi's chest.

One hit kills!

As he approached Lin Yi, Asam smiled slightly.

So what if you are the emperor of Great Liang? So what if you have millions of troops? You're going to be buried with him now, so die here.

He even wanted to see Lin Yi's unseeing, resentful eyes, a smug smile spreading across his face.

Die, Lin Yi.

bite!

Just as the dagger was about to strike, his arm suddenly stiffened, unable to move forward. Upon closer inspection, Asam gasped in shock; his dagger was trapped between the man's two fingers.

He seemed completely unfazed, still as nonchalant as ever, as if his dagger were just a toy.

He exclaimed, "How is this possible? How could an emperor be so strong?"

With gritted teeth, he thrust again with all his might, but still couldn't budge it an inch, causing his face to turn deathly pale.

He never dreamed that his opponent would be so strong; it was ridiculously strong.

Lin Yi looked at him with amusement and said quietly, "I rarely take action, not because I am not strong enough, but because I don't need to take action at all. My subordinates can handle everything."

Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Well then, I'll let you experience my full power.

As soon as he finished speaking, his expression turned serious. He then clenched his fist and exerted his strength, sending Asam flying through the stunned eyes of the crowd.

The punch landed squarely on his chest, causing blood to gush out. The blood trail traced a crimson arc in the air before Asam vanished into thin air.

Bang!

Asam fell into the water. No one knew how badly he was injured, but they knew Asam was definitely not going to survive. That punch had probably shattered his heart completely.

Grunt!

Seeing this, Abide Xisi couldn't help but swallow hard. Who would have thought that the emperor of a country was so powerful? This was simply an existence that was extremely strong.

Those so-called number one warriors of the empire would probably be nothing more than a punch from the Emperor of Great Liang.

That's way too powerful. If that punch landed on me, I'd probably be blown to pieces. I definitely couldn't withstand it.

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened. He realized that the other person's eyes had been fixed on him without his noticing, which made him gasp. Would the other person go on a killing spree because of Asam?

If that were the case, none of us would survive. An emperor in a fit of rage would absolutely cause rivers of blood to flow; that's no exaggeration.

Yize's heart skipped a beat.

Putting yourself in his shoes, if he encountered such a situation, he would also fly into a rage and then slaughter the other party without leaving a trace.

Sure enough, Lin Yi was already looking at him.

Yize's face stiffened, and he said awkwardly, "Back then, His Majesty the Emperor's actions had nothing to do with us. It was Asam who was insane and wanted to assassinate His Majesty. It had nothing to do with us."

He didn't want to die with Asam; that would be too humiliating.

If he really wanted to die, he wouldn't have surrendered. He just never expected Asam to pull this stunt, which caught him off guard.

That bastard should just die, don't pull this stunt! It's going to kill everyone. If things go wrong, not a single one of our three million troops will be spared.

"Heh, do you think I would believe that?" Lin Yi glanced at him, shook his head with a smile, and said in a deep voice.

Regardless of the other party's intentions, the act itself is a capital offense. I cannot allow someone who wants to assassinate me to live. Even if they don't have such intentions, being with them is a crime.

If we don't use severe punishment, not everyone will resort to assassination, which is not something I want to see.

"Your Majesty, I am Abide Xisi, Abide William is my younger brother. He is currently working under you. Please spare my life," Abide Xisi said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, everyone else glared at him angrily. This guy was acting like he was the only one who could live; it was utterly shameless. If we're going to live, we should all live together!

Lin Yi shook his head at him and laughed, "Don't be so naive. You are you, Abide William can only represent himself. He's alive because he did something right, but he can't save you."

For families like this, kinship is often weak.

It's possible that after Abide Xisi is captured, Abide William Abedius might have him killed, because then he would become the head of the Abide Family.

Abide Xisi's face turned Bai Qi; this meant he was going to die.

"To perform meritorious service?"

It was Yize who realized that Abide William was alive because he had done something right, and this might be their only chance.

He took a deep breath and said in a solemn voice, "Your Majesty, we are willing to perform meritorious service, we only ask to save our lives!"

Now that he's done with his pride, he doesn't need to hold back anymore. He's already surrendered to save his life, so he doesn't care about making any extra sacrifices; that's all acceptable to him.

After all, nothing is shameful when it comes to survival.

Lin Yi glanced at him, then shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I am not one to kill indiscriminately, so I can give you a chance."

However, to survive, one must naturally pay a price.

"Now that the Empire is about to attack the Moses Empire's homeland, since you have made this decision, then act as the vanguard."

To survive, one must naturally make sacrifices.

The other party was originally guilty of a capital offense, but since they have the will to live, giving them a chance is no harm. Let them be cannon fodder. As long as they can survive, there's no problem in letting them continue living. Let it be a sliver of kindness from an emperor.

After hearing this, Yize remained silent for a moment, but finally nodded and accepted the offer of survival.
