Chapter 761 - The Opportunity to Advance to a Celestial Sovereign (1/2)
…
Even his own subordinates were unable to see his face. That guy hid his face deep enough.
Forget it, it was not the time to think about that. Anyway, it would be impossible for him to break through the dimensional barrier and rush over in a short period of time.
Ye Xiao returned to Xuan Yuan Mountain very quickly. At that time, the Sacred Sovereigns of the Xuan Yuan immortal sect had just captured those archaic Sacred Sovereigns traitors and handed them over to Ye Xiao.
“Lord Ye, these fellows wanted to take the opportunity to escape but were discovered by us and brought back. Please punish them.”
Ye Xiao nodded and then waved his hand.
“Alright, all of you can leave.”
“Yes!”
Those people immediately left.
Those archaic Sacred Sovereigns looked at Ye Xiao with ice-cold faces.
Although their faces were already filled with despair, they did not say anything.
Actually, it was not that they did not want to say it. Just before that, they had already begged for mercy from Ye Xiao’s subordinates, which were the other Xuan Yuan immortal sect’s Sacred Sovereigns, but they did not receive a pardon.
Facing Ye Xiao, their hearts were already as dead as ashes. They knew that it was impossible to receive a pardon, so there was no need to use their dignity to be trampled on by the other party.
However, Ye Xiao did not directly attack them. He only said indifferently,
“I can give all of you a chance. As long as all of you reveal the positions of all your other companions, I can let all of you live.”
Of course, he would not let the other party live. Saying that was just to lure out all of the other companions of the other party.
Although Ye Xiao no longer needed to absorb additional Sacred Sovereigns to raise his cultivation, those people were all traitors of their universe and deserved it the most. Ye Xiao would definitely not let them off.
After all, there had to be a reward for the interrogation. Otherwise, how could the other party take the bait?
Unfortunately, that move of his did not have any effect.
The other party was already experienced and was not so easy to fool.
They all knew how powerful Ye Xiao’s methods were!
A strong person’s words could not be counted.
Ye Xiao wanted to go back on his words, but it was just a matter of casually moving his lips.
Hence, they did not say anything.
Ye Xiao saw that the method did not work, so he was not anxious. Instead, he continued to speak once more:
“I know that all of you are unwilling to believe me, but speaking of which, why would all of you rather not believe even the people of your own universe? Instead, why would you believe the people of other universes?
“Don’t all of you feel that this is too ridiculous?”
“What exactly do you want to say?”
Among those few archaic Sacred Sovereign traitors, one of them could not help but speak.
Ye Xiao immediately said,
“What I want to tell all of you is that the Lord that all of you are loyal to is merely treating all of you as a bunch of sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
“All of you absorbed the World Creation fragment in this world and worked hard to raise your cultivation to the peak Sacred Sovereign with 12 apertures with great difficulty. You thought that you could go to his world and receive his guidance to help you advance to the Celestial Sovereign realm.
“But in reality, as long as all of you go over, you will be instantly killed by him. After that, all of your hard work will become nourishment for him and help him raise his cultivation.”
“You’re spouting nonsense.”
Those few traitor archaic Sacred Sovereigns directly opened their mouths and rebuked angrily on the spot.
Ye Xiao was not angry either. He only smiled faintly and said,
“It doesn’t matter. All of you can not believe it because no one has told you about this matter before. Your beliefs have long been deeply rooted.
“However, after I killed the high emissary you mentioned, I suddenly discovered some interesting memories. I think you will be very interested.”
After saying that, he directly transmitted all the memories he had obtained into their minds.
The few of them looked at him warily and began to analyze the authenticity of that memory. After repeatedly confirming that the memory was real, their beliefs completely collapsed.
“How… How could this be?”
“I don’t believe it! This isn’t real.”
The faces of the Sacred Sovereignsinstantly turned pale. Some of them even staggered back two steps and then sat down on the ground.
They did not want to believe the memory they saw. Despite that, the memory was the truth.
At that moment, they did not know how to express their feelings of despair. They were all dumbfounded.
They thought that it was an opportunity for them to become Celestial Sovereigns, but they did not expect that it was only a scheme set up by others in the end.
In the end, they were all just playthings in the hands of others.
That huge psychological gap made them feel even more uncomfortable.
Ye Xiao did not continue speaking. Instead, he gave them some time to digest.
That was because he knew that their emotions were the most unbearable at that moment. If he continued to attack them then, it was very likely that they would completely collapse and beg for death. They would no longer have any emotions. That was not what he wanted.
He still wanted to use those people to help him find the remaining Sacred Sovereigns. Then, he would try his best to snatch back the World Creation fragment that they had stolen.
Only in that way would he be able to successfully advance to the Celestial Sovereign realm as much as possible.
At present, the number of World Creation fragments that they had stolen from their world was really too much. The power of the origin laws was lacking too much.
After a long while, Ye Xiao saw the despair in their eyes and it had already somewhat eased up. What replaced it was gradually rising anger.
He knew that time was up.
Hence, he said indifferently,
“All of you have been deceived by them for so many years. Even those seniors of yours might have already become fodder for the other party. To put it bluntly, you might even be treated as sh*t by others.
“Among those seniors, there should also be your masters, elders, or relatives and friends, right?
“Do you want to avenge them or just watch them get away with it after they made use of all of you and still live a carefree life?”
The various Sacred Sovereigns clenched their teeth.
It was very obvious that they were definitely unwilling.
However, to make them agree to Ye Xiao right then,it would definitely be quite uncomfortable in their hearts for a short while.
After all, both parties were still enemies just a moment ago. To make them cooperate with Ye Xiao in the blink of an eye, their hearts were also somewhat unbearable.
After hesitating for a long while, among them, a Sacred Sovereign opened his mouth and said,
“If we tell you, will you let us off?”
Ye Xiao nodded.
“Of course. My current cultivation is already the strongest in this universe. Right now, no one is my match. There’s no need for me to do those things that lie to you. It’s meaningless.
“Moreover, if I don’t keep my word, wouldn’t that be slapping my own face?”
Hearing those words, although the various Sacred Sovereigns did not completely believe it, they at least had a trace of comfort in their hearts. At the very least, they gave themselves an excuse to open their mouths and say it out.
