357: Mo Li
Lin Ang's actions quickly alarmed the entire Defying Heaven City, including the members of the Defying Heaven Alliance.
Since its establishment, there had never been a precedent of someone dying within Defying Heaven City.
Ordinary outsiders couldn't find this place, and those who came without sufficient strength would surely die.
Looking across the world, the Defying Heaven Alliance feared no one except the Imperial Advisor of the Great Zhou Jiantian Division.
In just one minute, Lin Ang was surrounded by people, all staring at him with unfriendly eyes.
If Lin Ang dared to make even a single move at that moment, they would immediately swarm him and eliminate him.
Facing these people, including the continuous stream of reinforcements, Lin Ang's satisfaction deepened.
Within the scope of what he could handle, the stronger the Defying Heaven Alliance was, the more beneficial it would be for him, making it easier to conquer Great Zhou later.
So, Lin Ang didn't intend to slaughter them, but he still needed to display his strength.
At the very least, he needed to draw out the Defying Heaven Alliance's leader.
Catching the leader first was akin to taking down the entire Defying Heaven Alliance.
Thus, Lin Ang waited a bit longer, until a sufficient number of people had gathered.
He suddenly made a move, not against a person, but against a building.
With just one strike, using only thirty percent of his power, he reduced it to ashes.
Seeing this, the Defying Heaven Alliance members surrounding Lin Ang tacitly retreated over a hundred meters.
Such power and might in a single strike indicated that the opponent had likely reached the Eighth-Turn level.
This was no longer within their capability to resolve; it had to be left to the leader.
Furthermore, they needed to retreat even further, otherwise, the mere aftershocks of such a high-level master's confrontation could kill them all.
"Which esteemed senior has traveled so far without prior notice? I apologize for not welcoming you sooner and for the inadequate hospitality."
At this moment, a gentle and ethereal voice drifted over.
Upon hearing it, the Defying Heaven Alliance members understood who had arrived, and their confidence immediately surged.
A young man in a starry blue robe, appeared, standing about three meters in front of Lin Ang, at some unknown point.
The man smiled, and politely said, "Sir, as a guest who has traveled a long way, our Defying Heaven Alliance should, by rights, offer you good hospitality and fulfill our duties as hosts."
"However!"
As these two words left his mouth, the man's tone and expression instantly turned cold.
"Upon arriving in our Defying Heaven Alliance's territory, you immediately killed one of our members. What is the meaning of this, sir?"
He looked directly into Lin Ang's eyes, "May I consider this an act of provocation against our Defying Heaven Alliance, a declaration of war against us?"
Lin Ang replied evasively, "May I ask for your name, and are you the leader of the Defying Heaven Alliance?"
"I am Mo Li, the leader of the Defying Heaven Alliance!" After saying this, the man's eyes revealed a murderous intent, "Sir, you still haven't answered my question."
Lin Ang also answered his question, "Actually, I was just cleaning house for you."
"Cleaning house?" Mo Li sneered, "Do you think we would believe such an excuse? Very well, could you wait for me to investigate thoroughly? If..."
Ultimately, Mo Li was not someone who would indiscriminately kill innocents.
If this person was truly as he claimed, wouldn't he be killing the wrong person?
But Mo Li's words were cut short by Lin Ang.
"I have only one main objective for coming here, and that is to subjugate you all."
"Therefore, once I have subjugated you, whether there is evidence or not will be irrelevant."
Then, without further ado, he attacked Mo Li.
Hearing Lin Ang actually say he wanted to subjugate them, such arrogant and contemptuous thoughts ignited a fire in Mo Li's heart.
"Subjugate? Let me beat you into submission first!"
With that, Mo Li engaged Lin Ang in battle.
Since Lin Ang was unsure of Mo Li's strength and worried about accidentally instantly killing him if he entered his activated state, he began the fight in his normal state.
In their normal states, the two fought back and forth, evenly matched.
In reality, based solely on strength and speed, Lin Ang could have completely gained the upper hand.
However, Mo Li surpassed Lin Ang by more than one level in both combat experience and tactical fighting.
The gap between them was thus quickly closed, creating a balanced situation.
Mo Li possessed martial arts techniques, and Lin Ang, inheriting the legacy of the Little Saint Mother, naturally had them too.
However, most of these techniques could only be used in his activated state.
A few that could be used in his regular state would also have their effectiveness greatly reduced.
Thus, the two continued to fight for a while.
The expressions of the surrounding Defying Heaven Alliance members watching grew increasingly grim.
They hadn't expected anyone to be able to contend with their Eighth-Turn peak leader for so long.
In the entire Great Zhou, no one dared to claim they could defeat the leader, except for the Ninth-Turn Imperial Advisor.
But at this moment, some even wondered what would happen if the leader lost.
However, this kind of battle was beyond their ability to participate in.
Rashly intervening might not only fail to help the leader but could also hinder him.
"Leader, keep fighting!"
At this point, someone began to cheer for Mo Li.
His actions instantly infected more people around him.
"Leader, keep fighting!"
"Long live the Leader!"
"The Leader is invincible!"
"The Leader is number one in the world!"
...
Countless people began to shout and cheer for Mo Li. Mo Li's leadership of the Defying Heaven Alliance had given them hope for survival.
It could be said that the leader was a god in their eyes, invincible...
At this moment, hearing the cheers of his members, Mo Li's attacks became even more ferocious.
"My people are below, they believe in me. They are my brothers, my family. I can't lose, damn it!"
Mo Li seemed to have burst forth, his combat power soaring.
The previously evenly matched situation quickly tilted in Mo Li's favor amidst the cheers.
This time, it was Lin Ang who was suppressed.
"Do you know why you're losing? Because you have no friends by your side, no brothers by your side, so today, I will definitely win!"
Amidst his barrage of attacks, Mo Li didn't forget to verbally assault Lin Ang.
Lose?
Did I lose?
Lin Ang indicated that he was merely at a disadvantage; which eye of yours saw him lose?
It was laughable to try to defeat him with a spiritual victory method.
But the Defying Heaven Alliance members believed it implicitly.
"He's almost done for!"
"Leader, take him down!"
"Just one last hit!"
...
Hearing the voices of the Defying Heaven Alliance members, Mo Li chuckled confidently, "Alright, since everyone says so, then I'll deliver the final blow."
Bang!
With a loud bang, a figure was sent flying, rapidly plummeting into a corner of the city.
The shouts of the Defying Heaven Alliance members in the arena abruptly ceased; they stared blankly ahead.
Above the spot where Lin Ang and Mo Li had been fighting, a gigantic dark-golden fierce tiger stood.
One of its paws remained in a horizontal striking posture.
