"You can't kill me!" Xie Min said with difficulty.
"I kill whoever I want to kill," Li Xiaoyao stated, leaving no room for doubt.
In desperation, Xie Min said, "I am the Fifth Elder of the Xie Family. If you kill me, the Xie Family won't let you off the hook, and neither will the Li Family!"
"The Xie Family?" Li Xiaoyao sneered dismissively. "Never heard of them."
"And as for the Li Family, do you really think I would be intimidated by the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country?" To Li Xiaoyao, what a load of nonsense those prestigious Eight Great Sects from Xuan Country were.
Perhaps Li Xiaoyao's current strength was limited and not yet sufficient to contend with the Li Family of Xuan Country on his own, but he believed that it wouldn't take too long for him to stand at the same level as them.
This confidence wasn't unfounded; it had a solid foundation.
