Chapter 98: Chapter 45 You Must Meet Strong Enemies!

As Li Yelai drew the Red Dragon Spear from the Big Black Umbrella, his aura underwent a drastic change.

To outsiders, Li Yelai, apart from being relatively handsome, had nothing special about his demeanor and would have blended into any crowd.

But now, as he drew the Red Dragon Spear, many experienced scavengers changed their expression abruptly.

They were all ruthless thugs accustomed to bloodshed, and the fierce aura alone would send shivers down an ordinary person’s spine.

But now, they seemed to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood, as if a pungent scent of blood filled their nostrils!

Naturally, they faced a Spiritual Ability User who was more dangerous than them, having single-handedly broken through cavalry formations and slain over two hundred riders, including the enemy leader!

When faced with the malicious display from Li Yelai, they naturally felt an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Li Yelai had indeed become angry.

Since the Black Prison incident, Li Yelai had become very cautious about the loss of control over Taboo Items.

In the Black Prison incident, too many comrades had sacrificed.

They had given their lives to suppress the uncontrolled Taboo Items to prevent greater casualties.

And now, someone knew of his status as an official processor,

Yet they planned to take the Taboo Item, utterly disregarding the potential loss of control and sacrifice.

This directly enraged Li Yelai.

Thus, he displayed his weapon, exerting significant pressure.

"Knowing that I am an official Processor, you still want to obstruct me?" Li Yelai’s voice was cold as he held the spear one-handed, pointing it at the male bodyguard: "Don’t you know the danger of the Taboo Items? Hand them over, and we can compensate you, covering all your losses and even leaving you with a surplus. Don’t make a mistake. Drop your weapons, and your Red Dart Commerce can flourish even more."

He was certain that the male bodyguard behind Xu Shi was the real decision-maker.

Xu Shi seemed more like a puppet pushed to the forefront.

Perhaps sensing Li Yelai’s hostility, the male bodyguard was somewhat surprised but still steadied himself.

"What compensation can match the benefits they bring? And you officials have seized many Taboo Items and are also exploiting their miraculous effects, aren’t you?" the bodyguard shook his head, his tone lighthearted: "I believe we can utilize it well too."

This is the common flaw of clever people, always thinking they can achieve what others cannot because they are smarter.

"It seems I’ll have to force a sale." Li Yelai spoke with a hint of regret, while his Red Dragon Spear radiated chilling flashes.

He kicked the table in front of him with one foot, wielding the Red Dragon Spear single-handedly as he dove for the chest.

In actuality, Li Yelai was not sure if he had reinforcements; previously, he had been pressed by a fierce-looking man and hadn’t found an opportunity to directly contact the officials.

But he was certain that the officials must have received the messages he had sent.

So, as long as he secured the Taboo Items and delayed until backup arrived, it should be fine!

On the other side, as soon as the old butler saw Li Yelai raise the Red Dragon Spear, he decisively turned and ran, grabbing the dazed boss along the way.

His task was complete; he dared not stay in such a place any longer.

Meanwhile, others also belatedly followed behind them.

Scavengers who should have stopped them were also deterred by Li Yelai’s actions and surprisingly did not pursue.

And facing Li Yelai’s charge, Xu Shi hadn’t even shown surprise or recovered from the shock of the word ’official’.

What did ’official’ mean? Did it refer to the official of the Giant City?

Had he provoked the Giant City by acquiring this item?

Xu Shi was shocked and immediately exclaimed.

"Wait! No..."

He did not want to oppose the Giant City, no matter how large the Red Dart Commerce was; it was ultimately just a small company in the eyes of the Giant City.

He only wanted to secretly take back these Gold Coins that could make him wealthy and quietly grow the Commerce by recruiting more Wild Spiritual Ability Users, expanding and strengthening the organization.

These Gold Coins had an extremely potent good fortune effect, having granted his commerce a huge boon in one scavenging trip. If he could take back all the Gold Coins, his Commerce could ascend to a whole new level!

Taking a stand against the Giant City was something he dared not do.

However, before he could finish, the male bodyguard grabbed his arm.

"Stop him!" the bodyguard yelled, grabbing Xu Shi with one hand and the chest with the other, then swiftly retreating and disappearing through the back door.

Clearly, he had no intention of risking a confrontation with Li Yelai, or rather, no Wild Spiritual Ability User wanted to face an official Processor.

And the female bodyguard didn’t hesitate to draw two hunting knives, confronting Li Yelai.

Obviously, she was buying time for Xu Shi and the male bodyguard to escape.

Among the scavengers, some hesitated, but a significant number were momentarily stunned before quickly taking up arms and charging at Li Yelai.

Some even went to the extreme of pulling out pistols, ignoring their fellow scavengers ahead, and directly fired at Li Yelai!

As gunshots rang out, several scavengers fell and didn’t get up, but more surged towards Li Yelai.

’Controlling behavior, is it Ravings? Or Divine Protection?’

Li Yelai’s gaze grew colder as he fully activated the Spiritual Barrier, blocking all bullets to prevent more casualties.

At the same time, he lunged forward, the Red Dragon Spear crashing down.

Single-handed Eighteen Strokes, Elephant Trample!

With just one strike, the female bodyguard was knocked back several meters, her face paling as blood leaked from her nose and mouth.
