Chapter 1582: Chapter 1553: Do You Remember Now?

“Three breaths?”

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow, looking at Che Yue with an amused expression, gesturing at him with a hooked finger, “I don’t need three breaths; I’m standing right here. If you dare, come at me!”

The words were flippant.

Full of provocation.

Che Yue’s expression changed abruptly, his gaze turning sharp as he sneered, “Well, well, well, I see you truly don’t know your place, daring to act wildly on my Zhen Tian Legion’s territory. Men, seize this reckless thug for me…”

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Over a hundred elite of the Zhen Tian Legion drew their longswords from their waists, looking at Xiao Yi coldly as they advanced step by step.

There were only a hundred of them.

But each one was an elite who had crawled out of heaps of corpses, their murderous aura coalescing into an almost tangible Evil Qi.

The sheer weight of this thick Evil Qi was enough to sap the morale of ordinary strong fighters.

Che Yue displayed a smug expression.

He believed that the trap he had set was already binding Xiao Yi tightly, making him the fish on his chopping board, unable to stir up any waves.

“Without a token in hand, you can’t even prove your identity. If I say you are a villain, then you are a villain. If I want you dead, then you must die…” Che Yue squinted his eyes, closely watching Xiao Yi, smug with his internal thoughts.

He had instructed Liu Tong to trick away Xiao Yi’s token first because he was concerned that possessing the token would make him hesitate.

Now that Xiao Yi had no token, if he dared to fight back, Che Yue would use it as a reason to strike him down mercilessly.

And if Xiao Yi did not fight back, he would be at Che Yue’s mercy!

In Che Yue’s opinion, his plan was flawless!

If it had been someone else, maybe today would have gone according to his wishes.

But…

Today he was facing Xiao Yi!

Facing the intimidating approach of over a hundred Zhen Tian Legion soldiers, Xiao Yi sighed lightly, “Is this really necessary?”

“Hmm?”

Che Yue was taken aback, frowning at Xiao Yi. He had expected Xiao Yi to either be panic-stricken or furiously counterattack when cornered by the Zhen Tian Legion soldiers, or even surrender directly. He never thought Xiao Yi would be so calm.

Only to see Xiao Yi with his hands behind his back.

Strolling leisurely.

Walking toward the hundred Zhen Tian Legion soldiers with light steps, as if taking a stroll at his doorstep.

This dismissive attitude ignited the fury of the Zhen Tian Legion warriors: “Arrogant!”

“This brat doesn’t put us in his eyes at all!”

“Kill him!”

Which of these veteran ruffians would have a good temper?

Each one was livid.

Killing intent surged.

The terrifying offensive exploded in an instant.

Faced with the angry assault of over a hundred Zhen Tian Legion soldiers, even a Saint King Realm like Che Yue would feel alarmed.

As for Xiao Yi?

He still remained carefree, walking with his hands behind his back. With every step he took, the fierce Zhen Tian Legion soldiers in front of him were pushed aside by an invisible force.

Every soldier, honed in the battlefield and killing without blinking, found themselves unable to even touch his clothes.

“What is going on?”

“Just, just now it felt like I was pushed aside, but I didn’t even make contact with him…”

One by one, Zhen Tian Legion soldiers were dumbfounded.

They looked bewildered as Xiao Yi, strolling leisurely, passed through their military formation and headed towards the equally baffled Che Yue.

They simply couldn’t comprehend what had just happened.

How Xiao Yi so effortlessly traversed through their military formation.

What must be known is…

The Zhen Tian Legion’s formation is famously formidable.

One hundred men form a team.

As if acting as one!

Even on fierce battlefields between two worlds, their formation is rarely breached.

Yet Xiao Yi had so unrelentingly torn them apart.

And they couldn’t even manage the most basic blockage.

This was terrifying!

Gasp!

Che Yue was in shock, suddenly realizing Xiao Yi had come right in front of him, and without a sound, they found themselves staring straight into each other’s eyes.

The distance between them was less than a meter.

Gulp!

Che Yue swallowed instinctively, just about to speak, when he suddenly found his throat gripped by an invisible hand, unable to breathe.

He stared at Xiao Yi, his expression a mix of alarm and rage: “You, you, let me down…”

Xiao Yi coldly said, “You should have seen the token I had Liu Tong bring you, right? Don’t tell me, as a sixth-level captain of the Zhen Tian Legion, you don’t recognize the Zhen Tian Legion’s token!”

“I, I don’t know what token you’re talking about… Liu Tong never brought anything to me…” Che Yue flatly denied.

He could never admit to seeing that token.

Otherwise.

It would be a heinous crime of insubordination.

At that time, if Xiao Yi pursued the matter, even Chen Runwei couldn’t keep him safe.

Indeed.

That token was akin to the Commander’s Seal of the Zhen Tian Legion, holding such a command made one the supreme commander of the Zhen Tian Legion!

Xiao Yi’s gaze shifted to Liu Tong.

Gulp!

Liu Tong trembled head to toe, cold sweat instantly soaking his forehead. He never imagined Xiao Yi would possess such terrifying power.

If he had known Xiao Yi was this powerful, he would never have obeyed Che Yue’s orders to hand the token over to him.

But now…

He and Che Yue were already tied together, and if he sold out Che Yue, he might find favor with Xiao Yi, but within the Zhen Tian Legion, there would be no place for a “traitor” like him.

After all.

Compared to Xiao Yi, who holds great power but has no foundation within the Zhen Tian Legion, Che Yue’s strength and status may be far inferior, but his position and connections within the Zhen Tian Legion far surpassed Xiao Yi’s.

With this thought.

Liu Tong said in a deep voice, “You never gave me any token, I dare swear on my life…”

“You heard that, right? Liu Tong never took any token. Quickly let me go, and I may forget this ever happened. Otherwise, just this charge of assaulting a captain of the Zhen Tian Legion is enough for you to die without a burial!” Che Yue shouted fearlessly.

“Is that so?”

Xiao Yi sneered dismissively; he knew well that to control the Zhen Tian Legion, having just the token was far from enough. One must have strong enough power and a thunderous approach that could intimidate everyone.

With this thought.

Xiao Yi’s cold eyes glanced at Liu Tong, and with a dull thud, Liu Tong’s body trembled, his legs shuddering violently as he knelt heavily on the ground.

His knees struck the ground fiercely, creating two deep pits.

The impact even drove the bones through his knees, penetrating the ground below, leaving him drenched in blood and cold sweat from the pain.

Gasp!

Whether it was Liu Tong or Che Yue, seeing Xiao Yi’s decisive and domineering methods left them stunned.

The surrounding Zhen Tian Legion soldiers also widened their eyes, staring incredulously at Xiao Yi: “He, how dare he do this? This is Xuanguang City, guarded by the Zhen Tian Legion. Does he not fear death?”

“Could it be he truly possesses the token, acting so fearless and confident?”

“Look… he’s about to make another move…”

A cry of alarm suddenly came from the crowd.

“Since you all have such short memories, let me help jog your memory!” Xiao Yi coldly stated.

With that, Xiao Yi raised his left fist and punched towards Che Yue’s horrified face.

Thud, thud, thud!

Each punch heavier than the last.

Every punch left Che Yue’s face mangled, blood spurting wildly.

With a dull booming sound.

Xiao Yi punched Che Yue’s head into the ground, then followed with a series of heavy punches.

Ten punches.

A hundred punches…

After a round of furious hammering.

Che Yue was already on the brink of death, and only then did Xiao Yi cease his assault, casting an icy gaze at the nearly senseless Liu Tong: “Now, do you remember?”
