Chapter 1222 - Fleeing flurriedly (2/2)

Starlight Master simply cut her off. He shouted, “Since they have been captured alive by us, we will naturally not release them! During this period, you guys have invaded into our Starlight World, killing so many of our clansmen. It is considered benevolent for us not to enslave or kill them all! I wish for you guys to obediently retreat. If you attack us again, don’t blame us for being merciless.”

The snake-tailed girl stared at Starlight Master.

She understood that previously when the five clans attacked the Starlight World, they were too ruthless. Everything had been done according to the orders of Great Emperor North River–to wipe out the Starlight Clan! Naturally, they did not show any mercy when fighting. Hence, it would be almost impossible now that they wished for the enemies to return the captives.

“I wonder what are the conditions you require in order for them to be released.” The snake-tailed girl said.

“As long as Great Emperor North River personally sends an imperial edict that states clearly for the Starlight Clan to remain independent, and for him not to attack my Starlight World from thus.” Starlight Master said. As long as it was an imperial edict personally written by Great Emperor North River, he would not dare to violate it against his reputation.

“This request of yours is quite high.” The snake-tailed girl muttered.

With the temper of Great Emperor North River, how would he ever write such an imperial edit?

“The conditions are given. It’s for you all to choose!” Starlight Master roared, “Right now, aren’t you leaving the Starlight World?”

Saying that, Starlight Master waved his hand.

“Hu.”

The distant void rippled, causing the incarnation of that snake-tailed girl to dissipate. She was also being silent in the face of these.

…

Given the strength of Starlight Master, he could clearly sense that the enemies had left the Starlight World.

“The experts from the five clans have left.” Starlight Master announced, “The enemies have retreated.”

“We have won!”

“Retreated! They have all retreated!”

“Victory is ours!”

Many clansmen from the Starlight Clan were excitedly cheering. Even though they knew it was only a temporary relief from the danger, it was still something they looked forward to a very long time ago.

And this time, they even captured enemies as hostages! Those were practically half the top experts in the five clans. With this batch of slaves, the five clans would restrain themselves further! ‘Great Emperor North River’ might not care about the lives of his subordinates, but the five commanders under Great Emperor North River were considered quite highly ranked. They had many friends, and the other subordinates of Great Emperor North River would have to show some respect to them. It was impossible for them to continue attacking their world amidst the possibility of getting the captives killed.

Unless Great Emperor North River gave an order!

“We have captured some enemies, and we still have Younger Brother Flying Snow around.” Starlight Master looked at Xue Ying excitedly, “Younger Brother Flying Snow, I would not have thought that just lending you a helping hand in the past would lead you here to save my entire clan.”

Xue Ying chuckled: “To me, it is similarly as simple as lifting my hands.”

When Starlight Master heard that, he laughed: “Alright. I shall not talk about this anymore. I’ll remember this huge favor of yours. Oh, that’s right, previously when you executed your technique, even the experts from my Starlight Clan fall prey to it. Does it mean you could not distinguish between enemies and allies with your technique?”

“No no, why can’t it do so?” Xue Ying shook his head with a smile, “The techniques executed by us cultivators are quite exquisite. It is impossible for me to commit such a mistake. Previously, the reason why I executed my technique on everyone is because I was worried that the experts from your clan might kill the experts from the five clans, and that’ll be a pity.”

“Haha, that’s true. During a life and death battle, this soul technique of yours came so silently. The experts from my Starlight Clan might not even have the time to stop.” Starlight Master was enlightened, “That’s good. We have captured all of them, and this is a positive matter to my Starlight Clan. At least it prevents the enemies from easily waging another war.”

“Monarch.” A silver-haired elder said softly from the side, “With such a huge victory at hand, and for Monarch Flying Snow to save our entire clan, I believe it is due time for us to celebrate!”

“Yes, we should. Let us celebrate this occasion!” Starlight Master laughed. He simply pulled along Xue Ying, “Younger Brother Flying Snow, from now on, you are the benefactor of my entire Starlight Clan.”

And in the distant.

The Starlight Clan princess who stood together with her mother looked at Xue Ying from afar. Her eyes were very bright. She mumbled: “Flying Snow… is this fate?”

******

At another place.

The experts from the five clans boarded the ships and traveled through the void. Soon, they arrived at the ‘North River World’.

“We have not only fail to lay siege to the world. So many of our experts have been captured. Right now, we are out of ideas and can only report to the Emperor about it.” The five commanders were slightly anxious. They were worried about the experts of their clans that had befallen into the hands of the enemies.
