"Let them go," the people of the Huangfu Family bellowed, "I said, it has nothing to do with them."
It was apparent they were furious; these were the future foundations of their Huangfu Family.
"It has nothing to do with them, you say that so lightly," Xu Zii chuckled.
"The day your Huangfu Family decided to defend this Demon Vanquishing Ridge, not a single person was innocent."
"What exactly do you want," Huangfu Long asked, looking at Xu Zii.
"I’ve said it, kneel down and beg for rcy," Xu Zii replied.
"Perhaps I might consider sparing their lives."
Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Huangfu Long fell silent.
He, Huangfu Long, had been wise his whole life, never bowing and scraping to anyone since he received the legacy of the Holy Ancestor.
Even now, for the mission of the Holy Ancestor, he could die with a blaze of glory, unyielding and unbending.
But at this mont, Huangfu Long lifted his head and looked at his family mbers in front of him.
There were children and won among them, each with a face full of panic and fear.
Desolate and helpless.
Most of them were looking at him with eyes full of hope.
They wanted to live; they couldn’t do as he did and face death without fear.
At this mont, even Huangfu Long himself couldn’t clearly distinguish whether the legacy mission he had agreed to with the Holy Ancestor was right or wrong.
Betting everything on the family.
If they succeeded, their family would naturally soar to great heights, and being favored by the Holy Ancestor, even going to Heaven Beyond Heavens was not impossible.
But if they failed, his original plan was for himself and others to die generously.
Leaving so sparks for the family, letting them escape and start over again.
Only now, he realized he had oversimplified everything.
"I don’t have ti to waste with you here," Xu Zii slowly extended his right hand.
He said, "I will only count to three. If you don’t kneel, then take your family to reunite in Hell."
As his words fell, he had just counted to "two."
Then, with a "thump," Huangfu Long, along with the rest of the Huangfu Family mbers, all knelt before him.
"Please, spare them.
It is I who should die, coveting the legacy of the Holy Ancestor, foolishly aspiring to climb up to the Holy Ancestor, it has nothing to do with them.
Spare them, and I’ll do whatever you want."
"Yes, it’s all our fault. We were montarily blinded, leading the entire family into an irreversible disaster.
We are willing to take on any responsibility."
Looking at these people kneeling around him, Xu Zii looked up slightly and let out a faint laugh.
"You see, sotis right and wrong don’t matter that much."
"Yes, yes, yes," the people of the Huangfu Family hurriedly nodded.
Soone tentatively asked, "Can you now let them go?"
"You may leave," Xu Zii turned to look at the people of the Huangfu Family.
He waved his hand and said, "I won’t kill you."
The rest of the family mbers hurriedly gave their thanks, their figures frantically running towards the distance.
At this mont, however, the Demonic Qi in the Firmant seed to have beco enraged.
Bundles of black Demonic Qi plowed down from the sky, shattering the void, and pierced through the bodies of those Huangfu Family mbers one after another.
Huangfu Long, including Huangfu Xiong and several others at his side, watched with eyes about to burst, roaring at Xu Zii.
"You deceived us, you said you would let them go."
"I didn’t kill them," Xu Zii responded.
"It’s just that your Huangfu Family has suppressed this Demon Vanquishing Ridge for too long, so much so that the Demonic Qi here has developed resentnt.
It attacked them on its own just now, not by my will."
Huangfu Long sat collapsed on the ground, his eyes vacant as he stared straight ahead.
The mbers of his family were falling one by one amidst the Demonic Qi.
They had no ability to resist, their despair and screams like a herd of lambs waiting for slaughter.
Suddenly, not knowing where the strength ca from, Huangfu Long surged up from the ground with great force.
Holding a golden greatsword, he charged at Xu Zii.
But by the ti he reached Xu Zii, Tyrant Shadow had already flown out of its scabbard.
It went straight through his neck with a single slash.
"I won’t let you off even if I beco a ghost," Huangfu Long spat out blood, his whole body resembling a blood-soaked figure.
He glared fiercely at Xu Zii.
Xu Zii smiled lightly and gently brushed the other man’s face.
Allowing him to die with his eyes closed.
He then chuckled softly, "In my life, I’ve killed many people.
Those who deserved it, and those who didn’t, there have been many.
When you get to Hell, rember to contact them, and if you want revenge, co together, and I’ll kill you all over again.
It saves trouble, I hate hassle."
With a "thud," Huangfu Long’s body heavily fell to the ground.
Xu Zii wiped the fresh blood off his hands and looked at the remaining few, then said to Chaos.
"You take care of this place, let them die as cruelly as they deserve."
...
Xu Zii’s gaze was fixed ahead, as his figure continued to step forward.
The deeper he walked inside, the more intense and volatile the Demonic Qi beca.
However, when Xu Zii arrived, the once violent Demonic Qi completely enveloped him and shot towards the firmant.
As if they were greeting their new king.
The void around him continuously shattered due to the corruption of the Demonic Qi.
In Immortal Town, Da Zhi the monk leaned back in his chair, staring unwaveringly at the distant horizon line.
There, the Demonic Qi shrouded the entire firmant.
It seed like a great battle was unfolding, with the void constantly breaking and then repairing itself.
He could almost imagine that scene.
That man, coming with rolling Demonic Qi, everything seed illusory, and no one could stop him.
"Old Ancestor, just what kind of person have you had follow," sighed Da Zhi the monk.
But now, he no longer had a choice.
An arrow shot cannot be pulled back, this is fate.
...
Crossing over mountains, the ground at his feet and the firmant overhead were already enveloped in Demonic Qi.
Xu Zii looked up and saw a door.
A door that appeared out of nowhere.
Behind the door seed to be nothing, just this lone door standing solitary in the world.
Endless Demonic Qi surged from the gaps within the door.
Xu Zii looked up and it seed as if the Demonic Qi in the firmant, all the Demonic Qi within Demon Vanquishing Ridge, were overflowing from this door.
He slowly approached the door, his heart beating faster and faster.
Sothing beyond the door was calling to him.
Although Xu Zii understood that this door did not lead to the Ancient Demon Cave,
It was rely a ans for him to converse with the beings on the other side of the Ancient Demon Cave.
Xu Zii took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.
Unfortunately, the feeling was strange, his mind was calm, but his body involuntarily reacted.
Longing for the call from beyond the door.
He slowly placed his hand on the door.
In that mont, with a "boom," a majestic imperial might emanated from the door.
As if a seal was touched, a "rumbling" sound transmitted from within.
Directly blasting Xu Zii away.
