Open up and break into another world

Smack!

Immediately following, a third slap landed directly on Li Xiujie's forehead.

Three bright red palm prints practically covered Li Xiujie's entire face.

Li Xiujie's "rosy" face undoubtedly became the focus of the entire scene.

"Who exactly is it? Who exactly is plotting against me!?" The anger in Li Xiujie's heart was churning like a stormy sea.

But what made him most angry and frustrated was that after taking three slaps, he didn't even know where the slaps were coming from!

"These slaps have no attacking power whatsoever, yet they are so loud and leave indelible palm prints on my face… It's clear that someone is deliberately humiliating me!!"

"General Li?" City Lord Yao stammered after a long pause, "This… what's going on?"

"How would I know what's going on!" Li Xiujie snorted coldly. "City Lord Yao, you are a King-level expert skilled in the Dao of Karma. Could you please help me investigate through karma to find out who is slapping my face? Consider it a favor I owe you!"

"This…" City Lord Yao hesitated, then said, "Alright! But don't blame me if I can't find anything!"

"I won't blame you!" Li Xiujie gritted his teeth—he was now anxious to know who exactly had slapped his face!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Within City Lord Yao's eyes, strange vortexes suddenly began to spin. The vortex in his left eye was a deep black, its center seeming to lead to an unknown darkness; while the vortex in his right eye was white, as if it were the origin of everything.

The vortexes in both eyes spun wildly, perceiving all the threads of karma in the surroundings.

Suddenly, City Lord Yao's expression changed: "General Li, these three slaps have no karmic connections!"

"No karmic connections?" General Li scoffed. "How is that possible! How could there be no karmic connections!—Everything in the world should have karmic connections; unless… the other party has comprehended the Dao of Karma to the 'Realm of No Threads'!"

The Realm of No Threads meant transcending karmic connections; this was an extremely high level of achievement in the Dao of Karma! Only those whose Dao of Karma reached the Emperor-level could achieve it.

"There really aren't any karmic connections!" City Lord Yao said solemnly. "With my strength, if there were karmic connections, I would definitely be able to find them! As for the source of the karmic connections, I wouldn't dare say I could absolutely find it!—But, I can't even find the karmic connections, which means the other party must have reached the 'Realm of No Threads'!"

"That's impossible!" Li Xiujie said decisively. "Are you saying that some Emperor-level existence has lowered their status to sneak attack me?"

City Lord Yao revealed a hint of displeasure: "Whether it's possible or not, you should ask yourself, General Li, whether you have offended someone you shouldn't have!"

City Lord Yao's implication was that Li Xiujie had offended some Emperor-level existence in the Dao of Karma!

"I…" Li Xiujie, of course, understood City Lord Yao's meaning, "How could I possibly offend an Emperor-level existence in the Dao of Karma? Unless I have a death wish!"

An Emperor-level existence in the Dao of Karma could kill without form! If Li Xiujie dared to offend such an existence, he might lose his life at any moment!

Li Xiujie was truly going crazy!

Of course, along with the madness, there was even more fear!

"Could it be that I really offended some Emperor-level existence in the Dao of Karma without realizing it?"

…

Who was slapping Li Xiujie?

Needless to say, of course, it was our Ming Ge!

After Xu Ming finished counting the spoils of war in Lu Qing's world ring, he remembered Li Xiujie's plot against him!—Li Xiujie had not only arranged for Earl to deal with him in the Endless Continent but had also arranged for Xue Rong, the Palace Master of the Saint Emperor Palace branch in the God Domain, to deal with him!

How could Xu Ming not hate such repeated plots?

Therefore, Xu Ming took out the Book of Life and Death, wanting to use the Book of Life and Death to kill Li Xiujie.

However, Little Guapi reminded him: Killing Li Xiujie required using 11th-level Guapi Points!

Xu Ming was speechless—where would he get 11th-level Guapi Points…

Then, Xu Ming remembered his exclusive "Forced Slap" Guapi!

Forced Slap (Exclusive): A specially customized exclusive Guapi function based on the host's behavioral habits. After activation, the host can forcibly slap anyone; in the new version, "Remote Slap" is also available! The slap will definitely hit, and the opponent cannot dodge; however, it only has a humiliating effect and does not have any lethality.

The new version of the "Forced Slap" Guapi could "Remote Slap"!

If Xu Ming didn't thoroughly slap Li Xiujie, how could he vent the anger in his heart?

So, Xu Ming asked: "Little Guapi, how many Guapi Points does it cost to remotely slap Li Xiujie!"

"One remote slap costs 100 million 9th-level Guapi Points!"

"100 million 9th-level Guapi Points…" Xu Ming was secretly surprised—this slap was really expensive!

However, Xu Ming had just made a fortune and was flush with money!

"100 million it is! First, slap him ten times for fun!"

The newest novels are first released on 69shu.com!

Ten slaps were 1 billion 9th-level Guapi Points, equivalent to 1 billion Godstones!

Although Xu Ming only had 5 billion Godstones now, he had thousands of God Crystals!

And one God Crystal was more valuable than 100 million Godstones; thousands of God Crystals were 100 billion Godstones!

So, what did it matter to spend 1 billion Godstones to slap Li Xiujie a few times for fun?—It was just small change!

When Xu Ming made an even bigger fortune in the future, it wouldn't be a problem to slap Li Xiujie every day!

Thus, the scene of Li Xiujie being madly slapped in public appeared!

…

Inside the City Lord's Mansion of Zihu City.

Li Xiujie, the guest of honor, and the King-level experts in Zihu City were still toasting and drinking.

However, although they were still drinking, the atmosphere was somehow off!

The goddesses who had been selected by Li Xiujie to serve him were also a little apprehensive—after all, Li Xiujie might have offended some Emperor-level existence in the Dao of Karma; they were afraid that they would be implicated for having served Li Xiujie.

The sinister old man who had wanted to join Li Xiujie earlier was now frequently flashing his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

Suddenly, Li Xiujie looked at the sinister old man and said, "Since you want to join my command, then come, I will arrange a good position for you in Saint Emperor City!"

The sinister old man rolled his eyes a few times and said, "Sorry, General Li, this old man suddenly feels that staying in Zihu City is not bad! I will not bother you, General Li!"

"You…" Li Xiujie, of course, knew that the other party's sudden change of attitude was likely because the other party felt that he had offended some great power and was afraid of being implicated, so he no longer dared to join him!

Since the other party didn't dare to join him, Li Xiujie naturally couldn't force him to join, could he?

"Damn it!" Li Xiujie cursed secretly in his heart, "If I had known, I wouldn't have played any tricks when he wanted to join me just now, I would have taken him in first…"

Losing a King-level joiner like this really saddened Li Xiujie!

What saddened him even more was that he had not only lost face, but he still couldn't figure out who he had offended!

After all, no matter how rich Li Xiujie's imagination was, he would never have imagined that the person who slapped him was Xu Ming, whom he regarded as an ant!
