Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 732 - 370: Recruiting Cultivators_3

"Very good!"

Li Yunjing nodded and said, "There are three demands for surrender! First, all the treasures of the 'Qiuye Sword Sect' must be handed over; second, you must persuade your sect members to surrender to my 'Shenxiao Dao Sect'; third, all who surrender will belong to the 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' and serve our sect! Any objections?"

Li Yunjing looked coldly at Zeng Jin, ready to kill him immediately and replace him with someone more obedient if he dared to object.

"Agreed! Completely reasonable, I am willing to surrender!"

Zeng Jin was not foolish; Li Yunjing looked like he was not in the mood to negotiate, so how could he argue?

These were the final terms; disagreeing meant death!

Moreover, from Zeng Jin's perspective, the terms of the 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' were not particularly harsh. Being able to surrender and save his life was already a pleasant surprise.

As for joining 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' and obeying their orders, that was an unavoidable situation!

Who made the sect's old patriarch fall for the Buddhist sect's instigation and joined the 'Bodhi Alliance'? Now, the old patriarch has vanished who knows where.

Now even the sect gate has been occupied!

They, the remnants of the 'Qiuye Sword Sect,' had already become like pigs on the butcher's block, ready to be slaughtered at any moment!

Now, it's time to surrender!

Surrendering means staying alive!

There's nothing shameful about it; life is one's own, and compared to life, nothing else matters!

"Very good! You are indeed a man who knows the times! Now, go announce that everyone must stop fighting, consolidate forces, and await orders!"

Li Yunjing nodded with satisfaction and continued to issue commands.

Since they could achieve a peaceful takeover, there was no need for further slaughtering the opponents.

What Li Yunjing currently lacked was time!

Soon, Liao Wanqing received a signal from Li Yunjing and put away her 'Cyan Jade Guqin,' hovering over 'Qiuye Island,' surveying all directions.

As long as these people did not flee, she would not take action!

Li Yunjing on the island and Liao Wanqing outside, working together, the two of them alone had brought down a whole sect.

"Everyone, stop fighting! The 'Qiuye Sword Sect' has been defeated, the old patriarch is gone! Currently, the fellows from 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' have shown mercy and do not want to slaughter us unnecessarily. If we surrender, we are assured of our safety, lay down your weapons and gather around me!"

Zeng Jin acted swiftly; after surrendering, he scanned his surroundings and shouted loudly.

His voice, enhanced by mana, rolled out for miles around.

Many from the 'Qiuye Sword Sect,' hearing the Elder's words and remembering the ferocity of the two masters Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing, had already lost their morale, and obediently put away their magical treasures, gathering around Zeng Jin.

Of course, where there were wise ones who surrendered, there were also stubborn ones who still wanted to resist.

These people, Li Yunjing naturally had to chase down and eliminate, while those who surrendered watched in fear as Li Yunjing slaughtered their fellow disciples one by one as if pulling out weeds.

Following Zeng Jin's instructions, they formed neat rows on the ground, looking utterly docile, heads bowed like quail, appearing weak and feeble.

Once everyone stood in place, Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing scanned the island thoroughly with their divine senses, checking if anyone was secretly hiding and not following orders.

Indeed, there were quite a few who tried to hide, hoping to escape their fate.

They were all found and slaughtered!

At this point, the 2,700 people who surrendered no longer harbored any hope of fortune, standing obediently as required.

"Zeng Jin, you are responsible for collecting everyone's storage magical treasures!"

Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing searched the bodies of those they killed, then issued commands to Zeng Jin.

"Yes!"

Zeng Jin sighed bitterly and took off his own storage bracelet first.

"Rest assured! Collecting your resources is temporary! It's to prevent any escapes! When you genuinely pledge allegiance to my 'Shenxiao Dao Sect,' you will receive regular allowances, you won't be disadvantaged! By surrendering, you can continue to earn resources within our system and cultivate in an orderly manner!"

Seeing their resistance, Li Yunjing spoke loudly, "You are not slaves; I hope you will quickly change your mindset and become 'one of us'!"

"As long as you show obedience and loyalty to the 'Shenxiao Dao Sect'!"

"As a true disciple of 'Shenxiao Dao Sect,' I, Li Yunjing, guarantee that what you gain will be greater than what you lose!"

After this speech, the people of 'Qiuye Sword Sect' calmed down slightly, no longer as restless.

Even the highest cultivated Zeng Jin breathed a sigh of relief; whether or not Li Yunjing kept his word, at least those words gave him a lot of comforts.

In fact, Li Yunjing had no reason to lie!

The people of 'Qiuye Sword Sect' are neither demon cultivators nor Buddhist cultivators; they have not harmed 'Shenxiao Dao Sect.'

Li Yunjing couldn't kill all of them.

He was not that ruthless a person.

Thus, a complete takeover became the best solution.

'Shenxiao Island' needed manpower, Li Yunjing's 'Star Moon Trading Company' needed manpower, and they could even dispatch some to 'Yingtian Prefecture' to reinforce 'Shenxiao Temple'!

There was another destination, the 'Transverse Mountain Range,' currently in the pioneering stage and always short of people!

As long as these people were truly obedient, there was a great chance for them to continue their cultivation journey.

"Senior Li, is what you said true?"

Among the crowd, someone from 'Qiuye Sword Sect' couldn't help but ask.
