Golden-armored War God: "???"
Bone girl: "???"
Sky-High Squad: "???"
"You really have no idea what's good for you," Ye Li sighed lightly, and then he snapped his fingers.
Swish!
In an instant, the sword light suddenly shrank, quickly transforming into a golden sphere about five centimeters in diameter at Ye Li's fingertip.
"Who are you, really?" The golden-armored war god shouted in disbelief. Divine Golden Roar, it was his signature move! With a single strike, he had swept away dozens of C-tier anomalies and severely wounded a B-tier anomaly. This technique had earned him a fearsome reputation. How could it be stopped by a nobody with a single finger?
"When did Jiangcheng have someone like you!" The golden-armored war god roared loudly.
But Ye Li remained silent. He was just a lazy person who didn't like getting involved in other people's affairs. Even if the sky were to collapse, it had nothing to do with him. But this golden-armored war god was extremely arrogant in his speech, provoking hatred and deserving a beating.
Ye Li became displeased, and the consequences would be severe.
With a flick of his finger, the golden sphere in his hand transformed into a golden arrow.
Swish!
The arrow pierced through the air, aiming directly for the golden-armored war god's forehead.
"Block it! Golden Armor Shield!" The golden-armored war god roared angrily, holding his giant sword horizontally in front of him. The spiritual energy around him formed a faint golden shield that enveloped his entire body.
He was well aware of the power of Divine Golden Roar. Once the golden armor shield was broken, the remaining power would be minimal, but he believed that he, the golden-armored war god, could withstand it.
However, the next second, he was dumbfounded.
The golden armor shield lasted for only 0.5 seconds before shattering with a loud boom.
The arrow's light struck the golden divine sword, and one second later, the giant sword shattered. The broken half of the sword flew out and landed in the ground.
Afterward, the arrow's light continued to spray toward the golden-armored war god.
"What the f**k!"
He quickly turned his body to the side, but even so, the arrow's light still grazed his ear.
"Ah!"
His ear was torn apart, and the golden-armored war god let out a painful scream, covering his ear with his hand, his face filled with agony.
Blood trickled down his face, giving him a particularly miserable appearance.
At that moment, the golden-armored war god finally realized what kind of existence he had provoked.
Thud!
The golden-armored war god decisively knelt down and didn't say a word. He respectfully knocked his head three times.
Then, with a fawning expression on his face, he said, "Big brother! I was wrong! Big brother! Spare me! I'll call you father, I'll call you father, alright!"
This scene made the nearby Bone Woman and Sky-High Squad unable to help but burst into laughter.
Ye Li also found it amusing. This person has the talent to be a comedian.
One second, he was invincible; the next second, he was kneeling on the ground calling someone "father."
Meanwhile, the golden-armored war god continued to bow incessantly.
However, in his mind, he was screaming furiously, "You can laugh now! The more joyous you are, the more miserable I'll make you cry later!"
"Alright, alright, stop bowing. It's late at night, and you're affecting the city's appearance!"
"Looking all shiny in your golden armor, someone might mistake me for robbing you on the street."
Ye Li waved his hand, signaling him to stand up.
"Okay, okay, thank you, big brother! Thank you, father!" The golden-armored war god quickly got up and bowed, his face full of obsequiousness.
"You can go now. I'm in a hurry to order takeout! Hurry up and leave. Just don't be so arrogant in the future!"
Ye Li casually waved his hand.
"Okay, okay!"
The golden-armored war god pretended to be deeply moved, then he picked up his sword and turned to run.
"D*mn it! I may not be able to defeat you, but with the combined power of the Red Fire God and the Blue Water God using the Fire-Water buff, I don't believe I can't beat you!"
The golden-armored war god's face was filled with resentment. He had been awesome his whole life, but today he had been humiliated here.
What's worse, he had been mocked and watched like a clown by a bunch of people. How could the proud golden-armored war god accept that?
The more the golden-armored war god thought about it, the angrier he became. He wanted nothing more than to turn around and hack Ye Li to death.
But the evident difference in strength made him suppress the impulse in his heart. It was only now that he understood how frustrating it must have been for Fang Qingmo earlier.
On the other side, as he watched the golden-armored war god's figure recede into the distance, Ye Li had a cold expression on his face.
He wasn't a fool. The impending trouble was apparent. Could he just let him go so easily?
In this world of peculiar resurrections, kindness to others was cruelty to oneself.
Ye Li flipped through the "Slaughter Spirit Compendium" and casually formed a seal with his hand.
"Heavenly Thunder Invocation!"
The next second, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and golden lightning flickered, dancing like giant serpents.
Boom!
Everyone couldn't help but look up at the sky.
Was it going to rain?
But in the next instant, a thunderbolt as thick as an arm crashed down.
The thunderous light was astonishing, illuminating the world as if it were daylight, extremely dazzling.
"Ah!"
A scream rang out, and everyone looked intently.
They saw the golden-armored war god in the distance being struck directly by the thunderbolt.
His entire body turned into charred remains, lying horizontally on the street, a blackened corpse.
Ye Li calmly observed, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, and said, "It's raining. When it comes to attracting thunder with metal, everyone should take it as a lesson."
"Don't wear gold and silver when you're out and about."
Everyone looked at the seal he still held in his hand and nodded lightly, "The boss makes a valid point."
Seeing their peculiar expressions, Ye Li smiled slightly and said, somewhat embarrassed, "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave and get my takeout."
The crowd nodded all at once, afraid that he might turn his attention to them.
After all, without a word, he killed someone, showing no mercy when it came to killing. He was a true big shot.
After Ye Li left, the Explosive Squad and Bone Girl looked at each other and went their separate ways.
On the other hand, Ye Li finally arrived at Li Yu Street.
"Hey! Brother!"
Ye Li immediately spotted a figure wearing yellow clothes under the statue of a book-carrying, scholarly-looking statue.
"Brother, which ghost took my takeout?"
Ye Li ran up to him and asked.
"I didn't see clearly. It was just a shadow that passed by. I couldn't see who it was."
"But it seemed like that ghost was quite short, yet very agile in movement."
Hmm?
Short stature, agile movement, stealing takeout? Could it be a hungry ghost?
While Ye Li was contemplating, the delivery guy said, "Just now, an old man brought your takeout back."
As he spoke, the delivery guy handed a bag of takeout to Ye Li.
"That old man looked a bit strange, around 1.5 meters tall, wearing a kimono, with an unusually long back of the head, ridiculously long. And he had no hair on top."
Ye Li took the takeout and opened it. Fried chicken, hamburgers, and soft drinks, all intact. There were even two extra side dishes.
Ye Li flipped through it and found a note attached to the soft drink.
He peeled it off and read, "You borrow, you return. Borrow again, no problem. Little brother, the takeout is good, very tasty."
It was signed by the slippery ghost.
A smile tugged at the corner of Ye Li's mouth. This slippery ghost was really interesting.
"Alright, alright, brother. As long as the takeout is back, that's good. Thank you."
Ye Li patted the delivery guy's shoulder and politely said, "It's late at night, so go home early. Thank you."
"No problem, it's good as long as you found it!"
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before going their separate ways.
And thus, this misunderstanding ended so simply and easily.
But little did Ye Li know that the events of today had also planted the seeds for future turmoil in Jiangcheng.
