657 Blinded by self-interests (1/2)

”Aren't you not giving? Since good words don't work then I'll just take it myself!”

The 10 people were totally silent when they heard this. They recalled when they were mocking him an hour ago. However, at this moment he was already holding a sword and standing in front of them.

The killing intent was raging and had not yet dissipated, it felt more bone-chilling, forcing down on their souls.

Weihai's expression changed. In the end, he took in a deep breath and forced a smile. He then bowed towards Zong Shou, ”It was just a misunderstanding why do we have to do this? If the Ruler wants military power then I will just give it to you. The past matters were just me being mad and crazy, not knowing my place. Ruler please don't blame me. After this I will definitely listen to Ruler's orders and not disobey you at all. Since this Great Death Restriction Formation is useless, naturally there is no need for the 10 million elites. All of us willingly hand them over to you!”

Zong Shou's eyes flashed, his gaze mocking as he stared at Weihai, ”Who knew that you can really bend down...”

Weihai's eyes flashed with darkness and violence which instantly calmed down. He still kept a smile on his face. In the next moment, it was Zong Shou's turn to laugh.

”However, I don't believe it! You all really think I don't dare to offend Great Shang?”

Just as Weihai was startled, he saw a White Sword strike at him.

The sword path was really deceitful! It was right there but he felt like he couldn't dodge or avoid it like any action was just useless. He could only look on as the Ashen White Sword Light moved toward the middle of his eyebrows.

Following this, he exhaled and his body was suddenly aging at a shocking speed and his skin turned ashen white. In a few breaths, he turned into white bones and dust as he fell to the ground.

Everyone's breathing tensed up once more. The few Huizhou Island City Lords were all in disbelief.

Even though they were strong High-Grade Cultivators they were all shocked.

Zong Shou really was crazy! Weihai was a Great Shang Primary Grade-2 Chief Commander! He led millions of troops and he was a great Official!

However, at this moment he had actually just killed him with no hesitation at all.

Since Weihai died then what would happen to the rest of them?

At this moment, Zong Shou was slightly shocked. He killed Weihai but the Nameless Sword was unable to absorb his soul. Naturally, there wasn't any green liquid that entered his soul.

Evil Sealing Violent Talisman? Someone from Ten Thousand Ghost Mountain Sect?

Zong Shou had some lingering thoughts but he didn't pay attention to it any longer. An Ashen White Death Energy chased towards the aura he sensed just now.

He turned around to see the ashen white faces of the Huizhou City Lords who all bowed. They seemed terribly anxious and hesitant like they wanted to say something.

Zong Shou couldn't be bothered to deal with them, ”You don't listen to good words so what's the point of begging now? From today on Huizhou is mine. I probably won't need all of you...”

Without using the sword, he just waved his sleeves. A thick Death Energy turned their bodies to dust.

These people were like ants to him. Naturally, he could treat them as such.

Handou's body trembled when he saw that. He suppressed the shock in his chest and said solemnly, ”Don't you feel like you went too far? Weihai asked for it for offending you but these few people were threatened. Ruler didn't even ask and just killed them. What kind of logic is that?”

”Logic?”

Zong Shou was delighted. Things in the world were just so weird. When he wanted to reason with people, they wouldn't listen. Now when he went barbaric, suddenly they wanted to reason with him.

”I am unreasonable so what can you all do? Haven't you heard of my title Zong Overlord? Oh no! Today I couldn't bear to see the Huizhou Island people suffer which was why I conquered this place...”

He took the moral high ground! Speaking of which, when did these people reason with the two million who were sacrificed.

Handou sucked in a deep breath and was speechless. With Zong Shou's strength and the power of Gantian Mountain, if they decided to be barbaric, no one could stop them.

As for Zong Overlord, he didn't know what he meant. Only when he heard that last sentence did his pupils constrict. He recalled those words he nearly didn't pick up.

Huizhou belongs to me. There is no need for you all...

”So Ruler wants to occupy my Huizhou Island?”

That's right! He was thinking why an ambitious person like Zong Shou would be so kind?

10 million strong people was still less than 1% of the Huizhou Population.

If one added in their families than the number could reach the hundreds of millions!

They were destined to die but this Monster King personally saved them. Even a heartless person would be grateful.

Although this Monster King came from afar and Donglin was 10,000 away, from today on Gantian Mountain would have foundations here!

First treating others with respect and kindness and then using troops. He said those words just for those people who were about to be killed to hear right?

He felt that he understood Zong Shou's thoughts. Handou's eyes were filled with rage. However, at this moment he didn't know what he could say.

Scold? He might be the next person to be beheaded.

A moment later he laughed coldly, ”Ruler really schemed well. Unfortunately you are blinded by self-interest!”

Even Great Shang didn't want to face the Night Demons head-on. Even Daoling Vast Habitat had to avoid them. Were they so easily dealt with?

”Blinded by self-interest?”
