Chapter 558: Chapter 5: Savior Sect
The Child “Dragon,” transformed by Dragon Smoke, directly made a move, shocking everyone.
A Fourth Realm, just like that, died easily, without any ability to resist.
“The master has not made a move for a long time, but that does not mean the master will not make a move.”
One sentence brought everyone present back to their senses.
They realized what it meant for them to face a genuine strong foe, yet they had foolishly thought to target him.
For a moment, most people wanted to retreat.
But—
“Some things, once done, cannot be undone as if they never happened. The things you’ve done, let’s stick to the laws… could barely be considered treason!”
The words from Huangtian made everyone feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, their entire bodies turning cold.
Treason was arguably the most serious charge in the land of Datong.
Once tainted with it, there would not be a good end.
“We are more than a dozen from the Fourth Realm, thousands of Grandmasters, Huangtian, do you really want to go this far?”
No one wanted to bear such a charge.
“Go this far? Surely you don’t think my words about the Martial Arts True Monarch being an invader of the world are false. I can tell you clearly, they are true. Now think about it, what do you think you are doing with your actions?”
The people present were at least of the Third Realm, and though they had been misled, they could still understand Huangtian’s words.
If they succeeded in their actions, they would be pushing their own greatest combat power out to the enemy on the eve of war.
Their deaths would be warranted.
Their hearts grew even colder.
This matter could not be resolved amicably, their fate was already sealed.
However, some had gleams in their eyes, obviously not willing to be captured without a fight.
After a silence, ten from the Fourth Realm burst out with all their power, escaping in different directions.
However, they did not head for the wilderness, but rather towards places crowded with people.
“Hmph, unrepentant to the end!” Huangtian snorted coldly. To those heading towards densely populated areas in the national capital, it was clear what they intended to do. He looked at “Dragon,” “Your Excellency Dragon, I entrust this to you!”
In fact, they had the strength to resolve this themselves, but there could be risks, so naturally, it could not be so.
“Dragon” nodded, not saying anything, making a move directly. The master had sent him to deal with these matters.
“I won’t hold back!”
“It makes no difference whether they live, it’s meaningless either way.”
Huangtian appeared indifferent. Those who came today were not just forcing his master’s hand, they were also slapping the entire nation’s face.
Now they wanted to use the lives of ordinary people as a threat.
He had already sentenced these people to death in his heart.
The closer to war, the more stringent some things became.
In a fight against other worlds, the enemy might cause you to lose a thousand souls, but betrayal from your own people could cause the death of ten thousand or even more.
“Dragon,” as one of the Five Internal Gods and a manifestation of Divine Thought, improved along with Wang Sheng’s increase in strength.
Even though he was only one of the Five Internal Gods and split in two, he still possessed the strength of an early Seventh Realm, dealing with more than a dozen from the Fourth Realm as if he were toying with them. All the spectators saw was “Dragon” flashing away, and not long after, he returned.
Upon his return, he carried with him the bodies of those who had just fled.
“Everything has been handled, is there anything else? I’m going back!”
Dragon was like a program lacking intelligence—it could converse, but all matters were handled in a businesslike manner.
“Thank you, Your Excellency, there’s nothing more here!”
Huangtian keenly noticed that the remaining Fourth Realm and Third Realm Great Grandmasters were trembling.
Too fast!
It was resolved far too quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, all from the Fourth Realm were dealt with.
With such strength, they couldn’t muster a shred of resistance.
Dragon didn’t care for all that; once the matter was settled, he left immediately.
At that moment, Huangtian turned to the remaining people.
Before he could speak, a Fourth Realm spoke up: “Leader, I understand what the consequences are, but I’m more eager to know, who was that person just now? How powerful are they!”
“My master’s Child!” Huangtian did not reveal the strength, but he shared the identity, “It is the very master whom you wished to coerce.”
Huangtian’s words once again silenced the crowd.
They themselves couldn’t understand how they could have thought to coerce such a powerful being.
Greed had made them lose their rationality.
Seeing this, Huangtian commanded several from the Fourth Realm to come forward and arrest everyone.
Not one of the remaining Great Grandmasters from the Fourth or Third Realm got away.
Having lost these strong members, the factions they belonged to were very likely never to recover.
In reality, from the very beginning, it was a gamble, and it was clear now that all of them had lost, forfeiting everything.
Before long, the news spread, causing a tidal wave within the Cultivation World.
Even though there were many more Grandmasters than before, they still occupied the upper echelons, but Datong had managed to arrest all the participants without any pressure, offering an extremely serious charge.
“The law does not account for the multitude, clearly, this does not apply in Datong. Thousands of top warriors, all arrested, and even more than a dozen from the Fourth Realm dead…” Someone discussing the matter did so with a tremble in their voice, for he too nearly got involved, but was advised against it.
“It is said that when those from the Fourth Realm tried to flee, they were all killed in an instant. Datong’s ability to suppress the world does not rely on mercy.”
“Haha, what of the Fourth Realm? Under absolute martial force, they still have no ability to resist.”
“Let’s cancel the subsequent plans, Datong has made its stance clear, unless we can stir up all the Martial Artists, otherwise it’s useless.”
