Chapter 209: Deserving of Death

Figures rushed out one after another, shouting angrily, charging at Qin Yang.

Their eyes were blood-red, they stared at Qin Yang viciously, as if they wanted to swallow him whole.

"It's you, Qin Yang of Baiyun Guan, why did you attack our Hehuan Sect for no reason?"

This is the Hehuan Sect Sect Leader, a master who has just entered the Returning Void stage.

The other Hehuan Sect disciples: only one is at Soul Formation, two at Nascent Soul, the rest are Golden Core or below.

This is the strength of a large sect.

Qin Yang said nothing, directly swinging his blade.

Pfft.

More than ten Hehuan Sect members exploded.

This made the Hehuan Sect Sect Leader furious beyond restraint, he shouted: "Qin Yang, don't think that just because you're strong you can do as you please; in the cultivation world, there are many stronger than you."

Qin Yang's response was a domineering slash.

The Hehuan Sect Sect Leader couldn't withstand a single blow, his physical body was obliterated.

A somewhat damaged nascent soul tried to flee, but Qin Yang directly sucked it into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

The other Hehuan Sect disciples looked on in terror, their hearts chilled, gazing in shock at the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in Qin Yang's hand.

They never expected that the senior disciple of Baiyun Guan's Daoist Baiyun would dare to refine such a thing as the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and even use it against them.

"All of you, come in."

Qin Yang unleashed the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, enveloping the entire Hehuan Sect.

In an instant, all living beings of the Hehuan Sect had their souls leave their bodies and were sucked into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

The entire Hehuan Sect fell into dead silence.

Having done all this, Qin Yang turned and left.

The Hehuan Sect was wiped out.

At this moment, Old Xu had a crowd of people standing at his door, all seeking to see him.

Their faces were grim, gloomy enough to almost drip water.

Little Zhou blocked them, sweat beading on his forehead.

He knew well that he could hardly hold them back any longer.

These bigwigs were now extremely angry, their gazes practically wanting to swallow him whole.

If he continued to block them, those people would likely really kill him.

Little Zhou secretly groaned in distress.

Just then, a guard stepped forward and whispered a few words to Little Zhou's ear.

Little Zhou immediately relaxed, he forced a smile and said to everyone: "Please come in, sirs, Old Xu has rested."

The crowd's pressing gazes then eased slightly.

They entered Old Xu's residence.

Old Xu was already seated in the reception hall waiting for them.

The spacious reception hall was instantly filled by those people.

They looked at Old Xu, each with a look of grievance.

"Old Xu, please give us justice."

This was a man in his fifties, his face full of anger.

Old Xu feigned confusion, asking: "Jiang Wei, what do you mean? Is there still someone who can make you feel wronged, coming to me for justice?"

Jiang Wei immediately said: "It's not the people of Dragon Pavilion; that Qin Yang is excessive—in just one night he killed thousands, many of them court officials, he's too much."

"Yes, please Old Xu grant us justice; my subordinates also had a few killed, they were people who had rendered service to Long Guo."

"Fine, please Old Xu deal with that Qin Yang; such a person shouldn't be allowed to live in this world, otherwise the court above and below would all feel uneasy."

Old Xu looked puzzled, he frowned and asked: "I've met that Qin Yang before; his character is upright and resolute, he certainly wouldn't indiscriminately slaughter innocents—why did he attack those people? Do you know the reason?"

At once, Jiang Wei and the others fell silent.

The crowd exchanged glances, each hesitating.

"Why isn't anyone speaking? Qin Yang couldn't have suddenly gone mad and killed so many, could he?"

Old Xu said with an amused expression.

The crowd swallowed.

Jiang Wei thought it over, then said dissatisfiedly: "No matter the reason, Qin Yang shouldn't have killed so many; even if they were at fault, our Long Guo's laws should punish them, not Dragon Pavilion taking action."

"Did they commit wrongdoing?"

Old Xu seized the point.

"Old Xu, this isn't the point; the point is that Dragon Pavilion is excessive, having disposed of thousands, which could easily cause chaos in Long Guo."

Another person said.

"Fine, Old Xu, I request that we deal with that Qin Yang, making him pay for his actions."

This was a man in his early forties, full of vigorous vigor, a military officer.

Old Xu looked at the man's eyes, somewhat disappointed.

He sighed and said: "Du Bin, I originally had high hopes for you, even planning for you to take my place after I retire completely; now it seems I misjudged you."

Du Bin's heart trembled.

He found it hard to believe.

How could Old Xu suddenly have such a thought?

Was my recent performance what disappointed Old Xu?

Sweeping his gaze over these people, Elder Xu said lightly: "You won't even tell me what wrong those killed people committed, yet you want me to decide for you—that's rather ridiculous."

Upon hearing Elder Xu's words, everyone fell silent.

Zhǔyào shì, those people's deeds are worse than beasts, so they also find it hard to speak.

The reason they sought out Elder Xu is Zhǔyào shì because they feared that if they made a mistake later, they too would be targeted by Qin Yang.

So, they wanted to restrain some of Qin Yang's actions.

They themselves couldn't do it, but Elder Xu might have a way.

Now faced with Elder Xu's questioning, everyone found themselves somewhat unable to speak.

Just then, a voice sounded.

"Let me tell Elder Xu what they did."

Qin Yang suddenly appeared in the reception hall, with no sign whatsoever.

This startled everyone, giving them a feeling of seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

Seeing Qin Yang arrive, Elder Xu broke into a faint smile.

"Qin Yang, then what do you say they did?"

"Those people on an island kidnapped children to satisfy the perverse desires of nobles and merchants, and even harvested the children's organs for sale," Qin Yang said.

Is there such a thing?

Elder Xu's face darkened.

Qin Yang nodded and said in a deep voice: "The victims discovered so far number in the hundreds."

Upon hearing this, Elder Xu's face instantly turned as dark as water.

His gaze swept over everyone, icy to the extreme.

"Even if that's the case, what then? You killed thousands just to avenge those few hundred? They're merely ordinary people, imperial officials—ten for one—how dare you do this?"

Jiang Wei stood up and said coldly.

Qin Yang's gaze fell on him, and he smiled: "Do you have your men among them?"

Jiang Wei said coldly: "So what if I do?"

He deserves to die.

Qin Yang lightly flicked his finger.

Pfft.

A blood hole appeared on Jiang Wei's forehead, and his soul was seized by Qin Yang.

These are excellent materials for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner; they must not be wasted.

Jiang Wei's corpse fell limp to the ground.

This left the others both shocked and enraged.

They never expected Qin Yang to be so audacious as to directly kill Jiang Wei.

Even Elder Xu was slightly taken aback, then he narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

"Failing to control your subordinates, yet you dare to accuse me before this seat—you deserve death."

Qin Yang said calmly.

He had completely let go.

Those around were stunned, staring at Qin Yang in disbelief, and for a moment none dared to speak.
