Chapter 1060: Homicidal Mission
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Many families together formed the Palace of Heaven’s Roars. Though those families had relocated some of their elite disciples, there were still quite a number of civilians inside the City of Heaven’s Roars.
People in the city were in alarm. The higher-ups of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars had received certain messages. They did not leak much information, but the city was filled with dread and depression, nonetheless.
A while ago, all of the Demon-slaying Hall had evacuated. The Demon-slaying Hall had deliberately blocked the passage of message. However, the major families did not find it hard to acquire such information since they all had members inside the Demon-slaying Hall.
Over one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors had come, including 10 at the peak. Lu Li was a man that could do wonders. That being said, nobody had any faith in him this time. The fact that Lu Li had relocated the Lu, Jiang, Ye, and Kong Families to the Prison of Wood was even more depressing.
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars relocated most disciples and members of his own family at once. Since the passageway to the Deserted World had been destroyed, those people could only be sent to a small world.
The Teleportation Formation was still glowing as the disciples were sent away to hide in small worlds.
“Buzzing!”
Another Teleportation Formation lit up in the city. Warriors at the plaza did not pay attention because too many had been using the Teleportation Formations lately.
The Teleportation Formation’s glow died down. Over twenty people showed up in the city. When warriors checked with psychic power out of instinct, they found themselves frightened.
What they saw was not twenty-some men, but twenty-some monsters.
“Incoming attacks—”
A team leader reacted fast and shouted at once. More than a score of warriors were horrifying and unfamiliar. He had never met them before. The homicidal intention surrounding those warriors were strong and they did not mean to hide any.
Fang Rui and the team had arrived. They did not resort to violence at once. All spread out their psychic power to cover the entire City of Heaven’s Roars. They must take control of the situation immediately.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”
Many people came out from the castles. Of those warriors, the lowest realm was the Noble Lord Realm. Some were at the Human Sovereign Realm or the Earth Immortal Realm.
“Chosen warriors?”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars came out as well. He trembled as he sensed the presence of over twenty Semi-God Realm. His face paled.
One Semi-God Realm warrior, let alone over twenty, could wipe out the City of Heaven’s Roars and leave them no burial ground. A group of Semi-God Realm warriors had entered the Great Land. Did it mean that the Demon-slaying City could not stand any longer? Lu Li... did not stop them?
In the split of a second, Master of Palace of Heaven’s Roars thought of many possibilities. He made up his mind. He flew over, dropped to one knee in front of the Semi-God Realm warriors and said, “I, Master of Palace of Heaven’s Roars, is honored to meet you, lords.”
When Master of Palace of Heaven’s Roars knelt, many other warriors followed suit and so did the civilians in the city. The civilians did not know the realm of those enemies, but they did know that if they angered those warriors, they could be killed in one move.
“You are the Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars?”
Fang Rui said, emotionlessly. Inside, he was satisfied. This man was sensible, and troubles could be saved. Fang Rui could forcefully turn the Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars as his soul slave, but Fang Rui referred proactive surrender, which would make things easier.
“Yes, what do you need, my lord?”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars had forgone all of his pride. Whether Lu Li had lost or not, Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars believed this was what he must do or the next second, he would be turned into a dead corpse.
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars was not entirely loyal to Lu Li. At this critical time of life and death, Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars would not hesitate. This group of warriors did not start killing as soon as they arrived, which indicated that there would be room for a talk.
“What do I need?”
Fang Rui grinned. He did not wait long. He waved his hand and said, “Show me to your mansion.”
“This way, please!”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars stood up, smiling. He bowed and scraped and signaled for his subordinates to get the banquet ready inside the mansion.
Fang Rui and the others walked without emotion. Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars and his men accompanied them, carefully. The banquet was ready. However, Fang Rui did not drink or dine when he entered. Looking at the Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars, Fang Rui asked, “Do you know what we are here for?”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars bowed and replied, “I want to render my trifling service no matter what you want to accomplish, my lord. Whatever you need.”
Fang Rui snorted and said, “We are on a homicidal mission here at the Great Land and... we are going to kill a lot of people. Will you still help us?”
“Homicidal mission?”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars and the other warriors trembled. Those Semi-God Realm warriors were here to slaughter people. If any of them helped, they go down in history as a symbol of infamy.
Fang Rui clearly was not a patient man. He said coldly, “You are faced with two choices, death or my soul slave. Help us and when we are done, we will return your freedom!”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars and his warriors were even taken aback. Soul slave? Their lives would be ruined and if their freedom was not returned, they would remain a slave throughout their entire lives.
“Are there no other options?”
A Family Patriarch worked up the courage and asked. Before he quite finished his question, two flashes of red light shot out from Fang Rui’s eyes and entered this Family Patriarch’s head. He trembled, collapsed to the ground and died.
“Anyone else wants to die? Come on out!”
Fang Rui said, coldly. The Semi-God Realm warriors who all stood by him were ready to kill.
“Count me in!”
An old warrior with white beard and hair said with indignation, “I have lived long enough, and I am bored. Kill away. Grand Master Lu will avenge us.”
“Right!”
Three more people stepped out. Becoming a soul slave to help kill people of the Great Land was worse than losing their lives.
“As you wish!”
A Semi-God Realm warrior advanced in ages flew out. He reached his skinny hand at the three warriors’ heads. Before they came back to their senses, their heads were crushed.
They died a tragic death on the spot, but none dared to voice any words. They did not even have the courage to show their emotions, let alone fight back. Only two warriors of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars here were at the Earth Immortal Realm and the rest were Human Sovereign Realm. It would be a wasted effort to have them fight against the Semi-God Realm warriors.
Fang Rui threw a cold glance to them and asked for one last time, “Anyone else wish to die? If not, kneel. I am a man of my words. I will return your freedom when we are done here.”
“Plop!”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars was the first to drop to his knees. He did not fight back or run after the Semi-God Realm warriors that came. He did not have the courage to burn the bridges. It was only a matter of time before he surrendered.
When Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars dropped to his knees, the others lost the nerve to stand against the enemies. All fell on their knees. They made things easier. The Semi-God Realm warriors made them soul slaves.
“Alright now!”
Fang Rui waved his hand. “Go and gather civilians of cities within a radius of three hundred thousand miles. Let them stay at the empty land at the north of the City of Heaven’s Roars.”
“Yes, my lord!”
Master of the Palace of Heaven’s Roars and other warriors had become Fang Rui’s and the group’s soul slave. The former could not disobey the latter. They flew out at once and sent their orders.
The countless cities within a radius of three hundred thousand miles saw their residents and even those of nearby tribes were gathered.
What was the population of those hundreds of thousands of cities within a radius of three hundred thousand miles? Conservatively speaking, two to three hundred million.
Fang Rui planned to threaten Lu Li with the two to three hundred million people’s lives first. If Lu Li refused to give the Wicked Bead, Fang Rui was going to turn the City of Heaven’s Roars into a living hell!
