Urban Invincible Overlord-Chapter 1260 - 1257: Surrender and Begging for Mercy
At the mountain top, standing beside Yang Wen were Yang Hao along with Huang Qiaoqiao and Li Guiju.
Zhu Wenjie and Xia Bingqing also came with their child.
Seeing the various scenes of crazy slaughter below the mountain, Yang Wen vomited, and Xia Bingqing and Li Guiju were also trembling.
Huang Qiaoqiao nervously grabbed Yang Hao’s hand, her face pale.
Although they had seen battles between Southern Domain cultivators and Earth cultivators before, how could those scenes compare to the large-scale slaughter before their eyes?
The scene before them was too visually overwhelming for them.
Not to mention the few women, even Zhu Wenjie and Yang Hao felt secretly apprehensive, their palms covered with cold sweat.
Too cruel.
Is this the most realistic side of the cultivation world?
Human life, in the hearts of these powerful cultivators, is no different than beasts or grass.
I have to become stronger.
A strong desire rose simultaneously in the hearts of Yang Hao and Zhu Wenjie.
In this cruel era of cultivation, if one cannot become stronger, one’s life is just like those being slaughtered before their eyes, always at risk of being taken by the enemy.
Yang Fei and the others couldn’t protect them for a lifetime.
And what happened today also proved one point: Earth will never be peaceful again.
The Southern Domain will become a towering mountain pressing down on everyone on Earth. If the Earth cultivation world cannot get stronger and cannot surpass this mountain, it will forever be suppressed in this world.
For the vast majority of ordinary people on Earth, staying on Earth without seeing the broad world outside was not bad at all; they just wanted to live a safe and simple life.
But with the current situation, the Southern Domain cultivators have destroyed the sealing barrier of Penglai Immortal Mountain, and a large number of demon beasts from Penglai Immortal Mountain are about to spread across the world. Even Foundation Establishment cultivators can’t defeat those powerful demon beasts alone, let alone ordinary people.
Moreover, what the Southern Domain has done will definitely lead to further actions.
Earth has already become a resource reserve that the Southern Domain is determined to seize. The Southern Domain cultivation forces will never rest until Earth is completely enslaved.
Within the Mountain Protection Array of White Jade City, the slaughter continued.
Although there are many Earth Foundation Establishment cultivators, along with the betrayal of the Lingxiao Sect causing overwhelming suppression on the five major Southern Domain cultivation forces, the opponents are numerous, and being cultivators, they have some special life-saving and escape means. To completely kill them off still requires some time.
After slaying several people, Yang Fei did not continue to make a move.
He regarded this slaughter as practical training for Earth cultivators, to give other cultivators more combat experience.
Chris and Wales, along with William and several other Blood Clan powerhouses, went on a killing frenzy.
For them, Foundation Establishment cultivators are still quite hard to kill, but these Qi Refinement cultivators appear extremely weak in front of them. With the terrifying speed advantage of the Blood Clan, any Southern Domain cultivator below Foundation Establishment that they set their sights on could not escape.
The final fate of every Southern Domain cultivator targeted by the Blood Clan was the same: having their throat bitten open and their full essence blood drained.
And through this battle, the strength of all the Blood Clan powerhouses had visibly enhanced greatly.
For the Blood Clan, continually devouring the essence blood of strong ones allows them to grow at a much faster rate than cultivating by themselves, providing a shortcut to cultivation for the Blood Clan.
This also made the eyes of all the Blood Clan members become frenzied and bloodthirsty, like devils from Hell; even Earth cultivators who saw them would secretly feel fear and become inexplicably vigilant.
After thirty minutes, the battle was nearing its end.
Aside from the Lingxiao Sect, two hundred and fifty-eight out of the two hundred and sixty-seven people who came from the Flame Moon Sect, Great Dao Sect, and the three major cultivation families to participate in the workshop trade were killed.
Among the remaining nine people, there were two late-stage Foundation Establishment experts who used powerful magic treasures and escape means to fight and flee, holding on till now.
The other seven were second generation immortals with backgrounds in the five major cultivation forces, carrying many attack, defense, and escape talismans, making them very troublesome. Even when facing Earth Foundation Establishment cultivators, they could barely fight and then escape from desperate situations several times using escape talismans.
However, as their companions were continually slaughtered, the number of Earth experts they faced became more and more, and with the gap in realm, the life-saving means they had were already mostly used up. Now, unable to escape the confinement of White Jade City’s Mountain Protection Array, they were on a path of no return.
"I-I surrender; my grandfather is Zhong Tianlin, the family head of the Zhong Family. If you kill me, my grandfather will never let you go."
A young man, covered in blood, with tattered clothes and numerous wounds on his body, suddenly shouted loudly.
"I also surrender. Don’t kill me. My father is the Law Enforcement Elder of the Great Dao Sect, a Core Formation Master. Killing me won’t do you any good."
"We all surrender. Use us as hostages, and you can gain many benefits. Killing us will only attract more hatred and more frenzied revenge."
In an instant, the nine people spoke out, continually pleading for mercy.
Faced with these pleas, the Earth cultivators surrounding them slowed down their attacks and all looked toward Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang and the others.
Qin Yanyang couldn’t help but say to Yang Fei, "Yang Fei, they are right. If their backgrounds are strong, keeping them alive is more valuable than killing them."
Tong Yunshu also reminded, "Indeed. Anyway, we have already killed so many from the Southern Domain today, showing our determination and attitude to resist. Killing these few more won’t mean much more and will only lead to more frenzied revenge."
Among other Earth cultivators, the majority silently nodded, agreeing that killing these nine more didn’t hold significant meaning.
Wang Chunfeng snorted coldly, "We have already killed so many; leaving these nine doesn’t make much sense. Do you think because of these nine, the five major cultivation forces of the Southern Domain won’t settle scores with us?"
Ouyang He nodded in agreement, "Exactly, the Southern Domain cultivation world has already torn up the peace agreement. From this day on, we are mortal enemies. Leaving these nine doesn’t make much sense; in fact, it requires watching them, using up our already limited manpower."
Many others nodded, finding the reasoning sound.
The killing intent in Yang Fei’s eyes dissipated somewhat.
He wasn’t particularly concerned whether to kill or spare the remaining nine.
But now he was the leader of the Earth cultivation world, everyone was listening to him, he had to take a stand.
Giving those nine a glance, Yang Fei thought for a moment, then looked towards Chris and the Blood Clan, saying, "Chris, place these nine in your Blood Clan’s custody for now, make sure they don’t die."
The eyes of Chris and the other Blood Clan experts lit up, William couldn’t help but ask, "Just making sure they don’t die, right?"
Yang Fei nodded.
William laughed heartily, "Rest assured, I guarantee they will have a breath left."
The faces of those nine changed dramatically.
They had just witnessed the terrifying methods of the Blood Clan; falling into their hands, they feared they would be continually drained of their essence blood by these creatures, a fate worse than death.
