Chapter 742: Chapter 742: Bloodletting

“Five hundred drops of Holy Blood per person!”

All six faces displayed a look of shock.

They had already braced themselves to be heavily extorted.

But they never expected Lin Yi to be so merciless!

Five hundred drops of Holy Blood per person, this was practically demanding their lives!

“Kong Linyun, don’t go too far!”

Qiao Shaofeng roared. They were the noble Kirin Royal Family, yet being extorted by Lin Yi? This was unbearable!

Slap!

Before he could finish his words, Qiao Shaofeng received a heavy slap from Lin Yi, sending him flying and spitting out several bloodied teeth!

This scene filled many hearts with dread. The Peacock Demon King was too domineering!

He had just slapped Yu Quan, and now, Qiao Shaofeng!

These previously arrogant members from the Ancient Relic Clan and the Second Generation of Royal Family, who used to strut around in the Ancient Battlefield, were now being humiliated under Lin Yi’s hand!

The Peacock Demon King was truly lawless!

“Too much?”

Lin Yi’s face showed a mocking expression, “Is this worse than killing you?”

“Do you think your life is not worth five hundred drops of Holy Blood?”

“If that’s not enough, we could use your Qilin Blood to make up the difference, no harm!”

Hearing this, Qiao Shaofeng’s face changed again. He guessed that Lin Yi was sure he couldn’t produce five hundred drops of Holy Blood, planning to make him bleed himself!

After all, even though Qilin is a Divine Beast and he wasn’t yet a Saint, Qilin Blood was still extremely valuable, its effects not inferior to ordinary Holy Blood!

But five hundred drops of blood—how much would he have to bleed to count that?

“If you’re unwilling, then die!”

Lin Yi sneered, already striking out with a sword.

“I’ll do it!”

“Isn’t it okay if I do it?”

Knowing Lin Yi would not go easy on him, and that he was truly ready to kill, Qiao Shaofeng immediately submitted!

However, Lin Yi’s sword did not stop; it still swung out!

“Kong Linyun, I already agreed to bleed, what are you doing?”

Qiao Shaofeng was terrified beyond words!

However, the sword struck directly on his major artery, slicing it open!

Qiao Shaofeng let out a pig-like scream, attempting to stem the flow of blood, but Lin Yi firmly restrained him, making it impossible for him to move!

The next moment, Qilin Blood spurted out from Qiao Shaofeng’s neck!

Lin Yi had already prepared a large tank, catching the spurting Qilin Blood.

“Too brutal!”

This scene made many onlookers swallow hard—Lin Yi’s method of collecting blood was far too violent!

Only when he had collected roughly five hundred drops did Lin Yi kick Qiao Shaofeng away and then turned his gaze to the other five, his face showing a devilish grin, “Who’s next?”

The faces of the five changed uncertainly; this young man was so brutal that he left them no dignity at all.

Sadly, they were already defeated, and even though they resented Lin Yi’s “brutality,” they dared not speak out!

“Since none of you are willing to volunteer, I’ll just pick someone randomly!”

Lin Yi didn’t want to waste time with these people. His gaze immediately landed on Helun, “It’s your turn, boy from the Sea King Clan!”

With a pig-like scream echoing, another swift and fierce slice severed Helun’s major artery!

Blood gushed like a fountain.

“Too much, too much!”

Watching the blood from his body flowing wildly, Helun also hurriedly cried out, clearly way over five hundred drops!

“Look at you, making a fuss as if I’m taking your life over a bit of blood!”

Lin Yi glared contemptuously at Helun, then kicked him away.

“I’ll do it myself!”

Qi Zhenjun gritted his teeth, taking the initiative to cut his own artery and started bleeding!

Rather than giving Lin Yi a chance to humiliate him, he preferred to do it himself!

Yu Quan, Yu Zhen, and Zorro also bit their teeth, then each sliced their own arteries, and blood spurted out like a raging stream!

Seeing this, Lin Yi smirked, “That’s more like it, sparing yourself some skin and flesh pain!”

Witnessing this, everyone was dumbstruck, these six individuals, with such statuses, should have walked dominantly through the Ancient Battlefield, but now, they were forced by the Peacock Demon King to give blood!

How utterly miserable!

Was this the consequence of offending the Peacock Demon King?

Who would dare to oppose the Peacock Demon King in the future?

After all of them had bled enough, Lin Yi finally let Yu Quan and the other five go, allowing them to leave.

Today, their losses were substantial. Attempting to snatch the Secret Key and besiege Lin Yi had backfired tremendously, costing them dearly both in resources and men!

However, despite the shame and anger in their hearts, they dared not react. If Lin Yi sensed their discontentment and continued to make unreasonable demands, they might have been squeezed even further!

Today, they were lucky to have their lives spared, the only option was to admit defeat and leave dejectedly!

Watching the six top fighters leaving in disgrace and bearing witness to the scene, an observer couldn’t help but remark, “It is easier to shake a mountain than to shake the Peacock Demon King!”

Today, the Peacock Demon King was probably lenient because of these six people’s powerful backgrounds, otherwise they might not have left alive at all.
