Capítulo 1251: Chapter 1252: Leave No One Alive, Kill Them All! (3rd Update)
“Let’s go.”
Ling Feng withdrew his gaze and said to the people beside him, “Let’s head to the city center and see what’s really happening.”
Lin Mu and the others slowly nodded, all showing a serious expression. This action was akin to knowingly entering the tiger’s den.
Only Chairman Fang looked pale, swallowed hard, and said tremblingly, “Ling… Young Master Ling, and everyone, this journey is undoubtedly fraught with danger. With my ager skills, even if I went, I would only drag you down. Now that those monsters are all over the city, I… I’ll wait for you outside the island area to avoid being a burden to you.”
“Hmph, talking big!”
Lan Yuhuang cursed softly, thinking this guy was both cowardly and unreliable, wanting to run at the first sign of danger. It’s truly puzzling how he cultivated to the Human Emperor realm.
Ling Feng chuckled lightly, softly patting Chairman Fang’s shoulder, “Chairman Fang, we are all in this together, we’ve co this far, there’s no need to talk about burdens. We’ll continue forward. It’s not too late to talk about retreating if real danger arises.”
Lan Yuhuang glared at Ling Feng and whispered, “Why are you keeping him around? Anyway, this guy is completely unreliable.”
She found it hard to comprehend. Chairman Fang had barely contributed anything from beginning to end, instead hindering everywhere. With Ling Feng’s shrewdness, he shouldn’t keep such a useless teammate.
Ling Feng shook his head, smiled, and didn’t care. He simply said to Chairman Fang, “Miss Lan tends to speak her mind. Chairman Fang, please don’t take it to heart.”
“Not at all, not at all. Hehe…”
Chairman Fang laughed awkwardly twice. Since Ling Feng had said so, he naturally couldn’t say anything further.
“Alright, everyone prepare yourselves; we’re likely facing a tough battle ahead!”
Ling Feng and his group traversed the inner island, occasionally encountering so monsters, but the monsters were only focused on heading to the central hall, ignoring them. It seed the drumbeats were the highest command for these monsters, everything else must be set aside first.
After realizing this, they couldn’t be bothered to sneak around anymore and openly proceeded towards the inner island.
On Heavenly Pond Island, all the streets exuded a desolate and decaying atmosphere. Occasionally, the ordinary people they saw appeared sallow and thin.
To the monsters, ordinary people were either servants or food. Even those servants, whose status was a tad higher than human sacrifices, faced the risk of being eaten at any ti.
These ordinary people looked at Ling Feng and his group with astonishnt; it was almost unbelievable to them that such healthy-looking humans existed on Heavenly Pond Island.
“Is this the state of ordinary people living on Heavenly Pond Island?”
Lan Yuhuang glanced at those around, all shrinking away, reluctant to show themselves, fearing these seemingly human folks might turn into monsters that devour them the next mont.
“This place is simply a Human Purgatory!”
Lin Mu cursed softly, slowly saying, “If there’s a chance, could we take these people with us?”
“Take them out?”
Lou Qianzhong couldn’t help but criticize, “Lin Mu, you might have good intentions, but these ordinary people are physically frail. Once encountering a space-ti rift, there’s no chance to escape; one death ans many deaths. Taking them out is nothing short of killing them indirectly. Staying on the island ans they can at least barely manage to survive for a while longer.”
“Alas, it’s a pity the Spirit Storage Ring cannot accommodate living beings!”
Lin Mu sighed lightly and let it go.
Yet Ling Feng, touching his nose, seed to think of sothing, already having a plan in mind.
Continuing ahead, the group discovered yet another cage holding a large number of humans, all sallow-skinned and emaciated, with a shabby cloth barely covering their naked bodies.
Seeing Ling Feng and his group approaching, they all trembled and huddled together.
“These damned monsters!”
Lin Mu cursed loudly, kicking open the cage door, shouting, “Everyone co out; the monsters have left. You should escape quickly!”
The humans inside the cage glanced at Lin Mu in surprise, and a few younger n quickly kowtowed to him and began supporting those beside them, urging, “Soone’s co to save us; let’s run quickly!”
“Run? Run where?”
An old man wailed loudly, “Can we run? Wherever we run, it’s a dead end!”
“How would you know if you don’t run?” A young boy supported the old man, “Father, let’s run quickly; these are Immortals who ca to save us?”
“Immortals?”
The old man laughed heartily, “Ten years ago, there was an Immortal too, but he devoured more people than the monsters! There’s no such thing as Immortals; even if they are, given ti, they too will turn into monsters that eat humans. I’m old and can’t run anymore; wherever we run, we’d still end up being eaten. That’s our fate!”
“No, we’re here to save you!” Lin Mu was anxious; these people actually had no will to survive.
“Immortals, turning into monsters that eat people?”
Ling Feng squinted, seemingly thinking of sothing. Immortals probably referred to the Sky Patrol Angel.
Unexpectedly, even the so-called Immortal Domain Divine Race and Sky Patrol Angel had fallen to beco man-eating monsters. This could be seen as an irony, perhaps?
Ling Feng stepped forward, held Lin Mu’s shoulder, shook his head at him, then looked at the despairing humans, slowly saying, “Everyone, the most terrifying prison is invisible; it’s the prison within your hearts.”
“Whether you believe it or not, we will eliminate all the monsters on this island. You can choose to hide for now or continue to wait here to be wiped out; it’s all up to you. No, we’re not Immortals, but even Immortals only save those who try to save themselves. When hope is lost in the heart, anywhere becos Hell.”
After speaking, Ling Feng took a deep look at the old man, then turned around and exited the cage, saying softly, “Let’s go!”
Lin Mu clenched his fist, glanced at the human sacrifices, sighed lightly, said nothing more, and followed Ling Feng out of the cage.
“Please… wait a mont!”
Just then, the old man stood up shakily, looking at Ling Feng and Lin Mu’s backs, biting his lips, “Are you really going to eliminate those monsters?”
“Exactly!”
Ling Feng turned around sharply, eyes filled with confident spirit, “We will kill those monsters, leaving none!”
Seeing Ling Feng’s gaze, the old man couldn’t help but burst into tears, actually kneeling on the ground, sobbing loudly, “Good, good! Benefactor!”
Ling Feng quickly stepped forward to support the old man, comforting him, “Old man, please take everyone and hide. Leave the rest to us!”
