Tycoon War God-Chapter 756: Kill Without Mercy!

Lin Wudi’s reputation as a living legend was unbreakable.

Ordinary King Realm Martial Artists, that is, God-Communicating Martial Artists, didn’t even have the courage to stand before Lin Mu, let alone oppose him. With a mere lift of his hand, Lin Mu could kill a King Realm Powerhouse.

In the battle at Changbai Mountain’s Heavenly Lake, the Martial Alliance’s many experts had been annihilated by a single palm strike from Lin Wudi.

At Lin Wudi’s level, numbers no longer meant anything. Without a Holy Artifact, no one was his opponent.

Hei You wanted to argue but couldn’t find a single reason to question the others.

"If you won’t go, I’ll go myself!"

As the voice faded, Hei You departed.

"Hei You is bringing disaster upon all of us!"

"Now that our forces are dead and the Holy Artifact is lost, our Lord’s return will be delayed even further."

"It matters not. Let Hei You go. It would be good to let her test the waters. If Lin Wudi is truly dead, then we will no longer need to be wary of the East."

With just a few words, the Emperors of the Dark Church reached an agreement, and silence was restored.

「...」

Just as everyone believed the lingering might of Lin Wudi could still suppress the world for a time, a certain power made the first move.

It was not the Ancient Land Sects as many imagined, nor was it the remnants of the Martial Alliance. It was the Blacklands Sorcerers.

The Black Wizards proclaimed that Lin Wudi had conducted an indiscriminate massacre in the Blacklands, slaughtering ten tribes. Now, under the charge of crimes against humanity, the Black Wizards declared war on Lin Wudi and all his Sect Disciples.

Three days after Lin Wudi entered the minor world, the Black Wizards declared war on his disciples, passing through Jiaozhi to enter Huaxia.

The Divine Machine Camp, led by Jiaolong, engaged the Black Wizards at the Huaxia border. The Black Wizards suffered thirty-six casualties, while the Divine Machine Camp had eight members seriously injured, but no one was killed.

The Huaxia military was furious. The hawkish faction, led by Xiao Xuan, declared war on the Black Wizards, announcing that any Black Wizard entering Huaxia would be deemed an evil element and killed without mercy.

That same morning, eight great enforcers from the Ancient Land Sects arrived in the Capital City.

With overwhelming authority, Xiao Xuan suppressed the eight enforcers and announced that all agreements with the Ancient Land Sects were suspended until Lin Wudi’s return. All Ancient Land Sect disciples, including the enforcers, were forbidden from appearing within Huaxia’s borders. Violators would be killed without mercy.

The enforcers conceded. The secular power of the Ancient Land Sects completely receded, and all their secular disciples confined themselves to their homes, forbidden from venturing out.

In the afternoon, Xiao Xuan issued another order: Lin Wudi’s disciples and their families were under the protection of the Huaxia military. Anyone who dared to bully them would be considered an enemy of the military and would be killed without mercy.

These three kill-on-sight decrees made Huaxia’s official support for Lin Wudi clear. Xiao Xuan’s decisiveness was on full display, and his iron-fisted reputation resounded throughout the world.

However, Xiao Xuan’s actions also seemed to indirectly confirm the rumors of Lin Wudi’s disappearance, and perhaps even his demise. After all, if Lin Wudi were still present, such measures would be unnecessary.

On the fourth day after Lin Wudi entered the minor world, a Foundation Building Immortal from an Ancient Land Sect emerged.

Outside the Capital, atop the Great Wall, Shen Lang of the Dragon Protection Hall engaged the Foundation Building Immortal in a fierce battle. The immortal broke through three seals and, at the cost of self-mutilation, used a mere one percent of his power to severely injure Shen Lang.

That same day, the Dragon Protection Hall brought out its Hall Towns Artifact and, in the outskirts of the Capital, killed the Foundation Building Immortal from the Sword Control Sect, an Ancient Land Sect.

The next day, another Foundation Building Immortal from an Ancient Land Sect appeared. With Shen Lang gravely wounded and the Hall Towns Artifact unusable, the immortal charged directly into the Capital to pressure Xiao Xuan.

From that moment on, the military’s protective order over Lin Wudi’s family and disciples ceased to exist. The Ancient Land Sects, or more specifically the Sword Control Sect, had openly torn all ties with the Huaxia officials.

On the fifth day, Hei You, an Emperor of the Dark Church, appeared at the Qin Family Ancestral House. She severely injured Li Linglong but was subsequently killed by Li Lingqing with a Nine-Star Bloodshadow Worm.

The Dark Church was enraged. Five of their Great Emperors set out, heading straight for Huaxia.

On the same day, Saint Nas, the vice-principal of the Prison of Divine Might, declared Lin Wudi a heretic and led six King Realm cultivators from the prison toward Huaxia.

「At the Qin Family Ancestral House.」

Qin Luoli sat at the head of the table. Li Xiaotian, Li Lingqing, Leng Feng, Li Linglong, and the other disciples were all present.

"Linglong, how are your injuries?" Qin Luoli asked with concern.

Li Linglong’s face was somewhat pale, but she managed a smile. "Mother, please rest assured. Master left behind Healing Pills before he departed. I’m fine now."

Leng Feng, the youngest but most hot-tempered, grumbled, "Sister was too quick to kill her. If it were me, I’d have tortured that crone for at least a thousand years!"

Li Lingqing glanced at him and said coolly, "Dying to a Nine-Star Bloodshadow Worm is the most exquisite torment imaginable. Would you like to try it?"

Leng Feng glared back. "Try me then! You think you’re invincible just because you killed one minor emperor from the Dark Church?"

Qin Luoli felt a headache coming on. Without Lin Mu around, these disciples’ unruly natures were becoming apparent, and they were difficult to manage.

Li Xiaotian coughed pointedly. "Quiet down! A formidable enemy is upon us. This is no time for your bickering!"

Only then did Leng Feng and Li Lingqing begrudgingly sit down.

Li Xiaotian bowed respectfully to Qin Luoli. "Mother, Master has not yet returned, and a great enemy is approaching. Perhaps you should take shelter at the Military Department for now."

Leng Feng, who had only been quiet for a moment, retorted, "Don’t give her such a terrible idea. The immortal from the Sword Control Sect is pressuring the Capital. Xiao Xuan can barely fend for himself, let alone help us."

Li Xiaotian sneered, "The Foundation Building Immortal of the Sword Control Sect might dare to provoke Xiao Xuan, but he would never dare lay a finger on Mother! As long as Master’s fate is unconfirmed, they won’t dare move against his family!"

He continued, "Those Western fools might not grasp Master’s true power, but how could the Ancient Land Sects not know? Mother, please trust me!"

Qin Luoli waved her hand dismissively. "This is the home Lin Mu and I share. I will not leave. If I am to die, I will die here."

Qin Luoli’s status was revered. With her mind made up, not even Li Xiaotian could persuade her further.

"So be it," Li Xiaotian said, his resolve hardening. "We’ll face the enemy here. I’d like to see who dares to harm the family and disciples of Lin Wudi!" He caressed the Heavenly Punishment Blade, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

「...」

In the early morning of the sixth day, just as the gates of the Qin Family Ancestral House opened, a young man with a full head of white hair was seen standing before them. He had a youthful face, yet his hair was stark white, and his brow was etched with sorrow.

"Ye Kuangren!" someone cried out in recognition.

Li Xiaotian strode out from the inner hall to face him.

After his defeat in the battle at Changbai Mountain, Ye Kuangren had vanished without a trace. It was a complete shock to see him here today.

"Master Ye, have you also come seeking revenge?" Li Xiaotian’s gaze was like ice.

Ye Kuangren spared him an indifferent glance, his voice hoarse. "Who do you take me for?"

Li Xiaotian frowned. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The sorrow on Ye Kuangren’s face slowly gave way to pride. "I am the Alliance Hierarch of the Martial Alliance. I am Ye Kuangren! My only opponent is Lin Wudi! You are all nothing but ants!"

"Then why have you come?" Li Xiaotian asked, bewildered.

Ye Kuangren swept his sleeve. "Lin Mu is my lifelong rival. His family will not be harmed by petty vermin. Nothing more. I’m just here to protect his family."

Li Xiaotian’s mouth fell open, his face a mask of utter disbelief. The Martial Alliance Leader, Ye Kuangren, is here to protect Lin Wudi’s family and disciples? If Ye Kuangren himself weren’t standing right there, Li Xiaotian would have roared with laughter.

"They’ve arrived!" Ye Kuangren declared, looking up at the distant sky.

Clouds gathered overhead as a fiery red mass swept in from the west.

A voice thundered across the heavens, "Lin Wudi! Great Witch Doctor Mosa of the Blacklands has come to visit!"
