Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 548 - 355: Meeting the Hanhai Demon Emperor Again

Chapter 548: Chapter 355: Meeting the Hanhai Demon Emperor Again

The army presses the border.

Yan Yun looked at the city before him, which exuded an eerie sense of tranquility, causing his brows to furrow tightly.

"Someone, open the city gates!"

Yan Yun ordered.

Immediately, a powerful figure from the Tribute Institute stepped forward, striking the heavy city gates with a mighty palm, instantly causing the iron-forged gates to explode into pieces, shattering in an instant.

In the next moment.

The face of the Tribute who struck changed dramatically.

"General Yan, look quickly!!"

Without needing him to speak, Yan Yun had already turned his gaze toward the scene in the city.

What filled his vision was a mass of civilian corpses, piled across the entire street, emitting a foul stench of decay.

"Be careful, see if anyone is still alive in the city!"

Yan Yun’s expression was grim, yet he didn’t rashly enter the city, instead instructing a group to first investigate.

A moment later.

A scout reported.

"Reporting to the General, the citizens in the city have all perished, and judging by the degree of decomposition, it seems they’ve been dead for some time!"

"Such ruthless methods!"

Rage flickered in Yan Yun’s eyes.

There was no need to guess, the perpetrators of such an extermination must surely be the Star Dynasty.

The city of civilians was blood sacrificed!

And these were citizens under the command of the Star Dynasty!

Such cruel acts left Yan Yun not only enraged but also a bit stunned.

Immediately.

Yan Yun sent this message back to the Divine Martial Dynasty, then left a group to collectively burn and bury the bodies of the citizens, and also dispatched people to temporarily take over this empty city, to prevent any sudden occupation that might cut off their retreat.

Subsequently.

Yan Yun continued to advance with the troops.

All along the way.

The resistance of the Star Dynasty seemed to have vanished completely, each city becoming a dead city, with all the citizens sacrificed. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

This news quickly spread, causing the entire Eastern Domain’s factions to become furious.

Though they knew the Star Dynasty colluded with the Evil Spirit, they hadn’t expected such brutality, daring to sacrifice countless subjects.

In an instant.

More cultivators joined the campaign against the Star Dynasty.

Within the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Gu Yang looked at the intelligence from the frontline, his expression also darkening.

"Slaughtering the cities for blood sacrifice, it seems the Lu Family truly intends to wholly align with the Evil Spirit. Such actions that even anger heaven and earth lead the Star Dynasty to the path of destruction!"

Gu Yang was internally furious at this inhumane act.

One more point was.

The Star Dynasty had slaughtered all its citizens for sacrifice, so even if the Divine Martial Dynasty occupied the cities, they were merely empty shells, offering no benefit to the court.

Moreover.

To develop these territories, citizens would have to be migrated, which was even more troublesome.

Keep in mind.

Not everyone is willing to leave their long-established home; persuading people to voluntarily relocate would require significant effort.

Furthermore.

The migration process is also fraught with difficulty.

Strictly speaking.

Such an approach is inadvisable.

Unless.

Other places in the Divine Martial Dynasty are already overcrowded, necessitating relocation, in which case it would be a different matter.

But the problem is.

Currently, the Nine States and the three hundred seventy-three counties of Shenyuan State make the territory of the Divine Martial Dynasty extensive enough, with no immediate population overflow issues.

Ultimately.

The Divine Martial Dynasty hasn’t existed for very long, less than a century; even with full development, population growth is limited.

However.

Upon learning of the Star Dynasty’s actions, Gu Yang also had someone inform Gu Qingfeng at the Demon Suppression Immortal City.

The latter had not paid much attention to the information panel recently, and upon hearing the message from Gu Yang, he glanced at the information panel, immediately noticing the fall of many Death Soldiers within the Star Dynasty.

The reasons for these Death Soldiers’ demise matched external rumors, involving the Star Dynasty’s collusion with the Evil Spirit for blood sacrifices.

"The Star Dynasty occupies Guxing State, with billions of civilians; if half were sacrificed, it would certainly be an astronomical number!"

"If all these sacrifices were to nourish a particular Evil Spirit, it might mean a cataclysmic Evil Spirit has emerged from the Star Dynasty!"

Gu Qingfeng’s expression slightly hardened.

Sacrificing over half the state’s citizens would inevitably summon an incredibly powerful Evil Spirit.

If this issue isn’t addressed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But the problem is.

Gu Qingfeng looked at the Boundary Domain Channel before him, finding it equally impossible to leave unauthorized.

After all, no one could guarantee whether the Demons had a Demon Emperor constantly watching the Boundary Domain Channel.

If news of his departure from the Demon Suppression Immortal City were to leak, the Demons might launch a massive invasion, making the Demon Suppression Immortal City indefensible.

More importantly.

The Demon Suppression Immortal City is located in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, next to the Nine States.

If the Demon Suppression Immortal City were to fall, it would inevitably endanger the Nine States.

Thus.

Gu Qingfeng naturally couldn’t easily leave the Demon Suppression Immortal City.

Additionally.

The foundations of the Eastern Domain aren’t as simple as they appear.

Even if a cataclysmic Evil Spirit were to emerge, the strength of the Eastern Domain could likely handle it.

Therefore.

Gu Qingfeng wasn’t in a great rush.

However.

Just at this moment.

He looked towards the Boundary Domain Channel, where a strong aura appeared, one that seemed quite familiar.

When Gu Qingfeng’s eyes shone brightly, he penetrated the abyss-like Boundary Domain Channel, witnessing the scene of the Demon Realm.

——

Boom!

BOOM!!

In a green robe, Gu Xiu’s fists shook the void, slaughtering Demon strongmen; even those in the Semi-Saint Realm could not withstand a single blow from him.
