"I definitely can't beat them."
That was Shi Xiaole's first thought.
Indeed, as he thought, among those who entered the Heaven King Tomb, there were not only Human Realm Martial Emperors but also Earthly Realm Martial Emperors and Heaven Realm Martial Emperors in abundance.
Setting aside the Fire Emperor, the Heavenly Water Great Emperor, and others, even if just one Earthly Realm Martial Emperor came along, they would be beyond the current Shi Xiaole's ability to contend with, let alone more than one.
And if these Earthly Realm Martial Emperors had any good intentions towards the Yan family, they would have already offered assistance earlier. The only explanation was that they were either enemies or simply indifferent, staying out of the affair entirely.
So, what should he do?
Shi Xiaole never liked owing favors to anyone, but he was even more averse to acting on mere passion. That would not only fail to save Yan Yuchai but also cost him his own life.
