Long Chen killed all the traitors with a single strike, and the old man's expression darkened.
Previously, he had stopped Long Chen from killing people partly to learn about Jiang Yiming's situation from these people, and partly because these people were powerful. If they could reform, they would become a key force in Tianyu City's counterattack.
He had already spoken up to stop him, but Long Chen didn't take his words to heart at all. He still killed all these traitors, which made his face burn with embarrassment—he didn't give him any face at all.
After killing the man and reclaiming the Dragon Bone Evil Moon, Long Chen looked at the elder with a gloomy expression and said, "Elder Xiang, you don't need to keep a long face. There's no need."
First, no matter what secrets we get from them, they are of little use to us. In the face of absolute power, so-called strategy is just nonsense.
Second, one infidelity means never being used for life. They are not children; they know the consequences of betraying Tianyu City. Since they chose to betray, they must bear the consequences of betrayal. "
But no matter what, you can't just kill them outright. At the very least, you need to interrogate them. Maybe they're being wronged?" That Elder Xiang was the Grand Elder of Tianyu City, holding a high position and great power. He spoke coldly.
"Wronged?" The moment they kill me, their lives are already mine—not just them, but everyone else. Whether you're a good person or a bad person, when you raise your knife against me, your life and death hang in my thread. Long Chen said coldly.
As soon as Long Chen said this, a chilling murderous intent swept across the room. Everyone shuddered, and the moment Long Chen said those words, it was as if they had suddenly become a different person.
"I owe you a favor from Tianyu City, but you have no right to boss me around. I hope you understand this." Long Chen looked at the elder and said.
This Elder Xiang gave Long Chen a cold shoulder, instantly making Long Chen feel a surge of anger. I'm helping you, and you're still embarrassing me? Are you out of your mind!
Long Chen's words made Elder Xiang and the others blush instantly. Long Chen's words were so arrogant and domineering that they felt a bit embarrassed.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, please don't be angry. You misunderstood Elder Xiang. In fact, Elder Xiang is afraid of wronging someone. Perhaps there is some unknown secret behind this, or perhaps they were forced into it." Seeing the tense atmosphere, Li Yunhua hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
After all, compared to others, she was somewhat familiar with Long Chen. She had defended him before, and since Long Chen at least had to give her some respect, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and step forward.
Long Chen looked at Li Yunhua, his expression slightly softening, and said, "As a new-generation disciple, I'll offer you a few words to remember." Hearing
Long Chen speak so seriously, Li Yunhua and the others immediately listened attentively.
Long Chen said, "No matter what their reasons are, they are unforgivable, because their betrayal would lead to the downfall of the entire Tianyu City."
Once Tianyu City falls, blood will stain this ancient city red. At that time, do you think they will consider your feelings? Will they feel sad for you?
Even if they regret it, so what? Can a lost life ever be recovered? Does it really have to be tragic before hatred? A woman's kindness is absolutely unacceptable. Long
Chen's words reached everyone's ears, and their hearts tightened. Indeed, no matter what reasons or difficulties they had, betrayal was betrayal.
When they betrayed them, they would surely think about how many people would die when Tianyu City fell. Such people were simply not worthy of pity.
"Who else betrayed Tianyu City? Will I end it myself, or will I do it myself?" Long Chen said coldly.
As soon as Long Chen said this, the powerful figures present were shocked. Traitor?
"I have let down Tianyu City, let down the ancestor. This is all my fault alone. I hope everyone won't let hatred drag my family into it. Thank you."
At that moment, an old man stepped forward. Upon seeing him, countless people exclaimed in shock—this was also a high-ranking official, yet he had betrayed him.
"Bang!"
After speaking, the old man slapped his own face with a palm. His whole body trembled, and he collapsed to the ground. The dignified dual-vein Human Emperor had actually taken his own life.
"I hate it so much. Why am I so foolish?"
Then another person committed suicide.
Soon after, one by one, they stepped forward, their faces full of sorrow, bidding farewell to the crowd, and in the end, each died before their eyes.
Originally, they were filled with anger toward the traitor, but now, seeing their tragic fate, they felt compassion and could only turn their faces away.
Watching one person after another take their own lives, Elder Xiang and the others felt uneasy. But Long Chen was right—such people cannot be forgiven. Their deaths serve as a warning to everyone, and in a way, they died for their own cause.
"It seems some people just don't have the courage!" Long Chen looked at Elder Xiang.
Elder Xiang gritted his teeth and waved his large hand, sending someone to strike at the crowd.
"Puff puff puff..."
Some people hoped to get away with it, but were all mercilessly killed. In fact, the list of these people had long been known, but Chu He had been holding back, hoping to learn about Jiang Yiming's movements through them.
When the traitor was cleared out, blood was everywhere. The scene was shocking, and the strong warriors present would still feel their hearts pounding years later, as if it happened just yesterday.
This brutal execution also meant that for a long time, no traitors appeared in Tianyu City. It marked a turning point in the city's decline and success. This chapter of history was written into textbooks by them, forever warning future generations.
"Those who commit suicide shall be given lavish burials. No one may blame their family or discriminate against their descendants; violators will be severely punished." He said to the elder.
Then Elder Xiang looked coldly at the slain strong figures and said, "Unrepentant fools, throw their bodies out into the wilderness!" After
dealing with the dead, Elder Xiang looked at Liao Yong and snorted coldly: "Liao Yong, you fool, you will pay the price for your foolish actions. Seal him in the Tianyin Blood Prison, never to be unsealed for life." "
No... No, kill me, hurry up and kill me... Xiang Yifeng, I'm @#¥, if you have the guts, kill me! I curse your whole family to have children @#..."
Liao Yong first screamed in terror, then cursed loudly, trying to provoke him and get a quick beat. However, Elder Xiang was extremely patient and completely ignored him. Liao Yong was dragged away like a dead dog.
Liao Yong's wailing and cursing gradually faded away. Elder Xiang left with a cold face. Clearly, Long Chen's attitude still left him unable to let go. After he left, an elder from Tianyu City apologized to Long Chen, implying that Elder Xiang had a bad temper and told Long Chen not to mind.
In fact, the terrifying methods Long Chen had displayed earlier had completely won over everyone. A strong person deserves respect, so although Long Chen was somewhat domineering, they felt this was the attitude a strong person should have.
Long Chen smiled slightly, indicating he didn't care. He had seen too many people like Elder Xiang, who had a strong desire to control. Although he wasn't a bad person, Long Chen didn't really like Elder Xiang's temperament. But disliking him didn't mean holding a grudge. Long Chen's mind wasn't that narrow-minded.
Seeing that Long Chen wasn't angry, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the disciples of Tianyu City looked at him with both awe and admiration, wanting to step forward and speak to him, but they didn't dare. Even those who had spoken to him before were now growing nervousCome.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, we know there's a mysterious place in the monster territory. Are you interested?" A disciple bravely walked over and said.
"Do you want to kill Senior Brother Long Chen?"
When that person finished speaking, many people's faces changed drastically, and someone shouted loudly.
