Emperor’s Domination

er cultivation.
This isn’t a fight.” One student loudly said.

“Is the brat crazy? Letting a new cultivator fight against those three? Ridiculous.” Everyone stared at Li Qiye and Fan Bai.

“He must be trying to kill her.” A student with a darker mindset speculated: “Hmph, maybe he knows that he can’t win, that’s why he’s letting her die instead.
This coincidentally ends the whole debacle with him not doing anything.”

“So despicable and shameless, he wants to use Zhang Changyu’s group to eliminate the Foredoomed Star.
He’s selling her and betraying her trust.” Some began looking down on Li Qiye.

“Scummy traitor.” Another insulted him.

“Is this a joke?” Zhang Changyu didn’t expect this development either.

“No need to use a butcher blade to kill chickens, this young miss here will do.
Just one move is enough.” Li Qiye smiled and confirmed.

“What did he just say?” Both Yan Jingxuan and Huang Qibing couldn’t believe their own ears.

“She will kill us with one move? More like the opposite.” Jingxuan stared at her and said.

“Hahaha, I’ve never heard something funnier than this!” Huang Qibing laughed and said: “A new cultivator wants to kill us with one move? You must be dreaming.”

Other students certainly agreed with this statement.

“This Li guy is crazy, to even say something like this…” One student said.

Everyone could tell that Fan Bai had only started cultivating recently.
Her cultivation was shallow and insignificant.
Even the weakest student in Duality could beat her in one move.

“Young Master…” Fan Bai didn’t know how to deal with this and was about to cry.

“You can’t let her go to her death!” Yang Ling shouted.

Li Qiye ignored her and stared at Fan Bai: “If you can’t take the next step today, you will never be able to.
You’ll always be branded as an unlucky star.
Remember, your life is in your hand, no one else.
You don’t need charity or pity from anyone.”

Each word of his had a special rhythm striking deep into her mind.
They kept on echoing inside – reaching her dao heart and ocean of consciousness.
The words washed away her unnecessary emotions such as fear and self-abasement…

She became affected by his rhythm and began to calm down.
This put her into a magical state.

“Go now.” He ordered.
These two words alone instilled endless courage into Fan Bai.

She had unconditional trust in him so she walked towards her three opponents.
Her cute and frail appearance has disappeared; she became an entirely new person.

Negative emotions were nowhere to be found.
She threw away the past in order to face this tribulation and welcome her new life.
She wanted to use actions to prove it, that her fate was her own.
She didn’t need pity and charity from anyone else.

She closed her eyes and relaxed, looking dignified.
This wasn’t because she was afraid of looking at others.
No, it was because she didn’t need to look at them anymore.
She only needed to look at herself and truly reflect.

“Buddha Bowing.” His voice echoed in her head: “All Buddhas shall bow before my supremacy…” 

The mantra began affecting her vitality.
