Chapter 455 - Operation Purification. Dark Gold Fiery Scorpion (1/2)
“Legend-quality subdued beast!” Sun Haiying paled after hearing Sun Haotian’s words. His legs turned to jelly, and he knelt down on the ground.
He knew it was impossible for him and his Big Brother to escape, no matter what.
“Haiying, it’s all big brother’s fault, dragging everyone down. I shouldn’t have agreed to do those foreigners’ work. Otherwise…”
The words of a man on his deathbed always came from his heart. Thinking that he would die here today, Sun Haotian was hopeless and started regretting his actions that had resulted in him dragging his brothers down.
Sun Haiying shook his head, saying, “Don’t say that, Big Brother. We agreed to it as well. You can’t take the blame alone!”
Seeing Sun Haiying acting so thusly, Sun Haotian smiled sadly, nodded and said, “Good! We’ll pay with our lives at the most! Eighteen years later, we’ll be brothers again!”
Sun Haiying burst out laughing as well, “Right, we’ll be brothers again eighteen years from now!”
In the midst of their laughter, in the skies to behind them, three soldiers with legend-quality subdued beasts had jumped off the fighter planes they were on and were quickly closing in on them.
Sun Haotian suddenly asked, “Haiying, are you scared of death?”
Sun Haiying blanked out for a moment, then laughed, “I’m scared. Only an idiot wouldn’t be afraid of dying… No, even an idiot is scared of dying. But, since things are already like this, it’s no use being scared, either. My only regret is that I can’t be brothers with you for a few more years!”
Sun Haotian burst out laughing, “Hahahaha, good! My good brother! Then I’ll send you on your way first. We can’t let ourselves die at the hands of those soldiers!”
Done speaking, Sun Haotian thrust the dark gold-quality long knife in his hand into the heart of Sun Haiying under the latter’s incredulous gaze and twisted it violently.
Sun Haiying was filled with disbelief. A trail of blood leaked out from the corner of his lips, mumbling, “Big Brother…”
In the next moment, Sun Haotian smiled bitterly as he pulled out the long knife and directly drew it across his own neck. Fresh blood immediately sprayed out like a fountain.
Sun Haiying finally understood. He showed a bitter smile, too. Afterwards, his vision faded to black, falling frontwards to the ground.
When the three squad captains came rushing to the scene, they only saw the two corpses laying on the ground. The smell of blood was thick in the air, giving off a solemn feeling.
“What a pity. Since they had such a spirit of loyalty, why do something as stupid as collude with foreign factions?” one of the squad captains sighed. He waved his hand. A subdued beast came forth and swiped its huge claws, digging a large hole in the ground. They buried Sun Haotian and Sun Haiying’s corpses inside.
The execution mission was perfectly accomplished, just like that.
———
The day after the conclusion of the execution mission, the military coordinated with the Bei Du government and launched a massive purification operation, executing large-scale captures and assassinations of some infamous underground factions and solo beastmasters.
There were only slightly more than three years left until the fifth beast swarm, not to mention the demonic army was like a Sword of Damocles hovering over humanity. Those evildoer beastmasters were definitely an extremely unstable element.
During the snow disaster from two days ago, many beastmasters took the opportunity to rob places, or even rape women. The majority of them were members of such underground factions.
At the same time, it wasn’t only Bei Du. The military liaised with the local governments across all of Hua Xia and launched a large-scale purification operation.
Of course, the operation only targeted people with evidence tied to their names. As for the factions that were only formed to unite people for self-preservation, the military and government departments only gave them a verbal warning, not taking any actions against them.
Not only that, some factions who had always disliked the tyrannical ways of the infamous gangs, and acted cautiously for the people, even cooperated with the military’s operation and helped them lock onto those evil factions, providing them with the most detailed and up-to-date information.
For a time, all of Hua Xia was in fear of the slightest move. All the evil factions or individuals who had committed crimes but left no evidence behind were shaking in fear, not being able to even sleep in peace. They no longer dared to commit evil again.
It could be said that the purification operation that lasted two whole months had reaped a very notable effect in the end.

“Eh? It’s only been a few days; why does the weather feel so much colder all of a sudden?”
Just as he stepped out from the spatial gateway, Zhang Che felt the air was much colder than before. Although he wasn’t afraid of the ordinary cold weather given his physique, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t tell the change in weather.
“Haha, I can watch television again!”
Unlike Zhang Che, who sharply felt the difference in temperature, the elemental queen was cheering, a bright smile on her face.
They had only stayed inside the beast world for about three days, and the elemental queen already felt that she was missing television to death. She was simply like a drug addict. Zhang Che was at a loss for words regarding this.
“Come on, it’s not too late to watch after we get in our plane. The travel time is enough for you to watch a full movie,” Zhang Che told her, shaking his head when he saw the elemental queen’s head was lowered, her eyes brought up close to her personal terminal’s display screen. He pulled her to the military camp at the side.
“Aiya, this servant is afraid there won’t be enough time, Master. Please just let me watch a little while longer.” The elemental queen didn’t believe Zhang Che’s nonsense. With Dijiang-hao’s speed, it wouldn’t take them two hours to get to the next city. If she didn’t make full use of whatever time she had, she might not be able to finish a full movie!
Zhang Che shook his head, no longer bothering with her.
