Chapter 834: Chapter 808: Destroying the Traitors in One Fell Swoop
"No—don’t kill me, I’m part of the Yao Race. If you kill me, they won’t let you off. And if you kill me, I’ll immediately order all the Poisonous People to kill on sight. By then, Donglin City will surely become a river of blood." Wing Shao was thoroughly panicked; he didn’t want to die.
"Die!" Tangyu stopped wasting words. With a flash of his sword, he directly attacked Wing Shao.
"Madman, I’ll never let you get away with this." In a fit of desperation, Wing Shao roared and charged at Tangyu with all his might.
Rip—
The brilliance and speed of Tangyu’s sword were extraordinary. It seemed as if even the air itself was being sliced apart. At this moment, Tangyu was unleashing his full power. One slash almost severed Wing Shao’s head entirely, hitting a vital point. Wing Shao’s large body fell heavily to the ground, struggled briefly, and then died. His bowl-sized eyes were wide open, filled with anger and unwillingness.
After dealing with Wing Shao, Tangyu walked over to Liu True Person. Liu True Person’s face was cold, but he showed no fear, instead looking at Tangyu with a calm and open expression.
"What do you have to say?" Tangyu asked.
Liu True Person replied, "The winner becomes the king, the loser the bandit. There’s nothing more to say. If you’re going to kill me, do it now."
Tangyu shook his head, "I also heard your conversation with Wing Shao just now. To be honest, I don’t dislike you, nor do I have to kill you. You have a heart that cultivates Taoism, knowing to have mercy on the common people and not to kill recklessly. So I don’t understand, why dance with demons, cause chaos in the world, and oppose our Ancient Martial World?"
Liu True Person glanced at Tangyu and said, "It’s just that our ways are different, hence we can’t work together. From your perspective, we are evil, but from ours, you are not the righteous sects you claim to be. Yes, we are invaders, but we only want to build our home and strive for some cultivation resources. Survival of the fittest, the world is cruel. So, there’s no right or wrong in this; we each serve our own master."
"If you put it that way, I might admire you even more. Why don’t we talk?" Tangyu said.
"Talk?" Liu True Person looked at Tangyu with some confusion, "I don’t think there’s much for us to discuss. If you’re going to kill me, just do it. I stopped caring about life and death long ago."
Tangyu shook his head and said, "Why does it always have to be about fighting and killing? Why can’t we sit down and have a good conversation? Maybe we share the same aspirations, maybe we could even become friends. We are all cultivators, and deep down, we have the same dreams. I don’t see why we must be enemies. Your nature isn’t bad; I can sense that. As you said, we serve our own masters. But does the Dark World always have to be irreconcilable with the Ancient Martial World? Must it always be life and death?"
"I don’t understand these things. All I know is that it’s a struggle for survival resources, not something I can decide. I’m from the Dark World, so naturally, I do things for the Dark World." Liu True Person shook his head.
"It’s not wrong to do your job, but do you have to do it blindly? Even when causing chaos among the common people? Even when committing arson and murder? There may be no absolute right or wrong in the world, but in our hearts, there should be. Uphold what you believe is right, reject what you believe is wrong. As you just said, we cultivators seek the virtue of benevolence from the heavens; shouldn’t we also? Do you really want to see tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of innocent ordinary people die in this catastrophe?"
"Have you ever considered how many people your actions have harmed this time? How many families will be ruined? If you can’t stop all of this, why not let me stop it?"
Liu True Person looked at Tangyu for a long time before shaking his head with a faint smile, "How will you stop it?"
"Tell me everything about your actions this time, and I’ll naturally have a way to handle it. I won’t kill you; I believe you are not someone who enjoys wanton killing. Even if next time, you still need to fight me, I’ll be happy to engage. I know you’re not afraid of death, but do you really want to die? If you truly want to die, you can end it yourself, and I won’t stop you. We pursue the Great Dao of Immortal Cultivation, seeking immortality." Tangyu said.
Liu True Person’s body and mind trembled. Did he want to die?
No, of course not. How could he possibly want to die?
In his heart, he also had passionate dreams and countless pursuits. But none of this was within his control. He was just a small figure in the Earthly Realm, a low-ranking member of the Dark World, only following orders.
Some actions of the Dark World he indeed disagreed with, but he also knew these methods were the only way to gradually start a war with the Ancient Martial World.
So, he had always been conflicted in his heart.
He struggled and hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I’ll tell you. I hope you indeed have the power to save those innocent ordinary people. This time, we were sent by Yinshan King to cause chaos in Donglin City, which is our Dark World’s biggest chaotic operation so far. The leaders are me and Wing Shao, along with twenty Innate Realm subordinates and four hundred Poisonous People."
"These four hundred Poisonous People were created with immense effort and cost by Yinshan King and are extremely effective for causing chaos. You should already be aware of how powerful they are, so I won’t elaborate."
"You killed Wing Shao and those twenty Innate Realm subordinates, and many of the Poisonous People as well. If you want to eliminate all the Poisonous People once and for all, there’s a way. Wing Shao has a Communication Talisman on him that can be used to command all the Poisonous People. If you get hold of that talisman, you can control them, gather them together, and with your current strength, you should be able to easily wipe out all of them."
"Oh, a communication talisman, this really is an excellent method." Tangyu was instantly pleased. He immediately took the Qiankun Bag from Yi Shao and quickly found a communication talisman: "Is this it?"
"Yes, this is it," True Person Liu said.
Tangyu didn’t doubt True Person Liu’s words because he didn’t feel that he was lying from the look in his eyes. Tangyu trusted his instincts.
Tangyu immediately activated the communication talisman, then issued a stop and quickly regrouped command. Soon, he received numerous responses. Seeing these responses, Tangyu knew that what True Person Liu said was indeed true.
After gathering these Poisonous People, Tangyu immediately called Xiao Yu, instructing him to dispatch personnel and set up a net to catch all the Poisonous People in one fell swoop.
With these arrangements made, Tangyu’s mood instantly brightened. The burden on his mind from the past few days could finally be put down.
Putting away the communication talisman, Tangyu smirked: "Thanks, True Person Liu. You’re indeed a friend worth making. How about becoming friends?"
"Friends?" True Person Liu shook his head: "We belong to different camps. We might break out into a war someday. If we meet on the battlefield, we would be enemies with drawn blades. How could we be friends?"
Tangyu scoffed: "It doesn’t necessarily have to be a life-and-death situation, right? I don’t believe you, the Dark World, have the power to wipe out our Ancient Martial World, and likewise, I think our Ancient Martial World isn’t confident enough to destroy your Dark World. If there was such a huge disparity in power, wouldn’t we be fighting already? Why bother with all these schemes? Even if we break out into war, it will surely end in negotiations. So, in the future, we may not necessarily be unable to coexist peacefully."
True Person Liu gave a faint smile: "I hope so. Actually, we don’t want to fight either, but we have no choice. Otherwise, our Dark World would have no place to survive. If that day ever comes, perhaps we can indeed become friends. But for now, we are still enemies. I’ve told you some things I shouldn’t have. I don’t agree with the Poisonous People plan either. I hope you can save those innocent people."
Tangyu nodded: "Of course, leave this matter to me. One last question: what is Yinshan King’s plan this time? Where is Yinshan King now? Are there any other forces targeting Donglin City besides you?"
True Person Liu said: "Is this one question?"
Tangyu thought for a moment and said: "Asking them all at once is just one question, right?"
True Person Liu was speechless for a moment, then said: "Fine, since we’ve come this far, I’ll reveal a little. I truly don’t know Yinshan King’s plan, only that this battle is meant to be the opening skirmish between the Dark World and the Ancient Martial World, using the great chaos in Donglin City as a fuse. It’s also an important signal to the Ancient Martial World."
"As for where Yinshan King is, I’m sorry, I really can’t tell you. Otherwise, you’ll probably notify the Myriad Saints Valley right away, and they will send experts to kill Yinshan King."
"As for the third question, you can rest assured. There are no other forces targeting Donglin City besides us. Frankly speaking, Yinshan King doesn’t care about mundane matters. The chaos is just to start the war with your Ancient Martial World and distract you. Since the decision has been made to go to full-scale war, there shouldn’t be such small disruptions anymore. Next, it will be your experts coming out in droves. This will be the real battle."
Tangyu scoffed: "Then I’m relieved. A war is a war, it’s not something I can worry about."
"Yes, it is not something we can worry about. We are just small fry, doing whatever the higher-ups arrange," True Person Liu said.
Tangyu smiled: "Alright, True Person Liu, thank you for your answers. Even though you don’t fully agree, I still hope that in the future, we can meet as friends rather than as enemies."
After speaking, Tangyu left. Not far away, Liang Youshan had already rescued Lin Feifei, Guo Momo, and Zhao Yaya. All the guards had been eliminated.
True Person Liu glanced at Tangyu, shook his head, sighed bitterly, and dragged his injured body away, quickly disappearing into the mountains and forests.
Liang Youshan quickly came over, glanced in the direction True Person Liu had left, and said: "Boss, why did you let him go? Not kill him?"
Tangyu shook his head: "Not everyone deserves to die, and not everyone is bad. He’s not bad, let him go. We really have to thank him this time."
Liang Youshan scratched his head, a bit confused as to why they should thank him.
But since it was Tangyu’s decision, he could only comply.
