C923 Suicide to Atone for His Crimes
Before the Firefox could figure out why the Golden-eyed Mysterious Hawks would attack him, it was killed by Lin Yue's sword!
Lin Yue was currently a Divine King Fifth Layer, but his combat strength was far higher than a Sixth Level Divine King Firefox.
The long sword was as fast as lightning, directly opening up the Firefox from the middle of his body. His body shattered, and his Yuan Shen was on the verge of collapsing.
"Why!?" The Firefox's Yuan Shen looked at the Golden Eyed Mysterious Eagle and asked.
He couldn't understand why the Fire God Clan would hire the Golden Eyed Profound Hawk at such a high price to attack him.
"Because if you do anything wrong, you will die!" Lin Yue sneered. With a clench of his hand, he grabbed the Firefox's Yuan Shen, erased its consciousness, and put it away.
Huo Cheng and People of Han Family were stunned on the spot. They couldn't understand why things had turned out this way.
It was obvious that the Fire God Clan had invited the Golden-Eyed Profound Hawk, but it had turned against them and helped Lin Yue deal with them. This was completely unexpected.
More importantly, the death of the two God Kings of Firefox and Fire Waves had greatly reduced their strength. They were simply unable to fight against Lin Yue and the others.
Huo Cheng cried out loudly and chose to teleport away.
"Stay behind!" Lin Yue sneered and clenched his fist.
In mid-air, Huo Cheng's teleportation channel collapsed. The fragments pierced through his body and even his Yuan Shen exploded.
Plop!
Han Xi fell to his knees with cold sweat pouring down from his forehead.
"City... City Lord, I was blinded by greed and was enticed by the Fire God Clan. I have made a huge mistake and I hope that the patriarch will spare my life!" Han Xi said.
He was merely a Divine King Third Layer. He knew that there was no way he could escape.
The People of Han Family looked at each other and knelt down on the ground.
They knew very well that the only way to survive now was to kneel down and beg for mercy.
Leng Chen had always been kind, so he should have a glimmer of hope.
The thousands of disciples who had betrayed Leng Chen at the critical moment were now drenched in cold sweat. They knelt down on the ground, feeling regret in their hearts.
As traitors, it was shameful.
They were regretting their decision. If they hadn't betrayed ___, they would have been the supreme victor in front of them.
Unfortunately, there was no 'if'. Things in this world were full of uncertainty and drama.
"Han Xi, I gave you a chance." Leng Chen said, "It's a pity that I can't forgive the mistake you made this time. Otherwise, how could I treat my brother who died in the battle?"
In this battle, the No Name City had suffered heavy casualties, and their vital energy had been greatly damaged.
"If you still have a trace of conscience, then commit suicide. This way, the rest of the people from the Han Family will let bygones be bygones!" Leng Chen said.
If he killed all of the people from the People of Han Family, it would not be a good idea. It could only intensify the hostility of the No Name City.
As long as Han Xi died, the rest of the people from the Han Family wouldn't become much of a threat to the safety of the No Name City.
The People of Han Family raised their heads and looked at Han Xi.
Their survival depended on Han Xi's self-awareness.
Han Xi turned around and looked at his own clansmen. When he saw their eyes, he felt endless sorrow in his heart.
"Alright, Leng Chen, it's a deal!" He gritted his teeth. "All of this was planned by me. They were just following orders. I will commit suicide to atone for my crimes!"
He stood up and looked at the crowd.
After cultivating for so long, he was even more reluctant to die.
However, he knew very well that if he didn't die, more People of Han Family would die.
"Lin Yue, I regret not killing you back then. Now that you have matured, I admit defeat!" Han Xi said coldly.
If he had killed Lin Yue all those years ago, perhaps the current situation would have been completely different.
"You didn't die because of me, you are courting death." Lin Yue said, "Since the City Lord has spared the lives of the rest of the Han Family, you should be grateful."
"Haha, good, good. Hurry up and thank him!" Han Xi shouted.
He knew that as long as he died, the disciples of the Han Family would be able to live. Although they wouldn't be able to live like before, at least they would be able to survive.
"Thank you, City Lord, for not killing me!" The People of Han Family bowed respectfully.
Han Xi looked at the crowd and his Qi surged. His spiritual energy was reversed and his Yuan Shen was shattered. He fell to the ground with a loud bang!
Some of the disciples of the People of Han Family started crying. Han Xi's death was destined to lead to the decline of the Han Family.
However, given the current situation, it was already an extravagant hope for him to survive, and he didn't dare to think about anything else.
The thousands of warriors who had betrayed them were trembling all over. They had no idea what kind of punishment they would receive.
People of Han Family brought Han Xi's corpse and left the battlefield in silence.
They knew very well that from now on, the People of Han Family would no longer be able to hold a high position in the No Name City.
"City Lord, please spare my life!" The traitors kowtowed on the ground and begged.
Leng Chen looked at them and shook his head.
When some people saw this scene, their hearts tightened.
As traitors, following military law, they should be executed for their crimes!
"Remove all of their duties in No Name City and stop supplying all spiritual herbs." Leng Chen said to Zong Hua, "Those who are willing to stay, those who want to leave, don't stay."
"Yes." Zong Hua said.
Killing these people was meaningless. It could only intensify the hostility of No Name City.
Moreover, these people had once contributed to the city. They were also the elites of the city, so they weren't completely useless.
"Thank you, City Lord, for not killing me!"
Thousands of disciples kowtowed once again, and some people actually shed tears.
This was not because they were glad that they survived, but rather because they felt ashamed and self-blame for their cowardice at that time.
These people were destined to have their Dao Hearts shattered because of this. Most of them would not be able to take another step forward in their cultivation.
Heavenly God Zonghua brought some people with him to deal with these disciples and other matters.
The betrayal of the Han Family had dealt a fatal blow to the No Name City. It had caused great damage to the No Name City. There were many things that needed to be done.0
The rest of them also dispersed and started to move.
"Thank you for your help, Brother Ying!" Lin Yue cupped his hands and said.
Leng Chen also had a puzzled expression. He didn't know why the Golden-Eyed Profound Hawk would suddenly help Lin Yue.
"Brother Lin is being too polite." The Golden-eyed Profound Hawk turned into a man in golden armor and hastily returned the gesture, "My king has said that everything will be arranged by Brother Lin!"
Back then, when the Fire God Clan was looking for him to beat him up, he had gone to the Monkey King to ask for instructions.
When the Monkey King found out that the person he wanted to deal with was Lin Yue, he asked him to agree.
When Lin Yue appeared, the Golden-eyed Mysterious Eagle told him that he was sent by the Monkey King and that they were a family.
That was why the scene just now happened, and the Firefox died with everlasting regret.
Leng Chen looked at Lin Yue. It was both familiar and unfamiliar.
That year, a brat who was only a Heavenly Monarch Stage had actually become a Divine King with a single leap. Moreover, his combat strength was much stronger than his own.
He had always thought highly of Lin Yue, but his cultivation talent still shocked him.
"Greetings, City Lord." Lin Yue said with a smile.
When they left No Name City, they had a different feeling when they returned.
"Thank you for your help, little friend Lin and Ying Fellow Taoist. Let's talk in the main hall!" Leng Chen said with a smile.
This time, he had managed to survive the danger. Furthermore, Han Xi's death had caused Nameless to remove the cancer of the Han Family. It was indeed something to be happy about.
Lin Yue and the others came to the main hall. It had been a long time since they last saw each other, and they had a lot to talk about.
"City Lord, although the crisis has been resolved, it's not good to relax. Three Divine Kings of Fire God Clan have fallen here. They will definitely not rest easy." Lin Yue said.
Fire God Clan had always been stingy. Now that Firefox and the others had died, they would not let this matter rest.
