Chapter 964: Self-Made Bait

Feng Lin Tao was conferred as King by the Human Race.

This matter caused quite a stir, as during this period of time, in the numerous wars with the

West Moyu Holy Land, the number of victories for the Human Race had been increasing!

Some of these victories seemed to be caused by the leakage of intelligence!

In addition, the Human Race seemed to know everything about the information of the powerhouses within the West Moyu Holy Land, and even the internal interpersonal relationships had been explored clearly!

This made the West Moyu Holy Land feel pressure!

And there was the strategic layout of this war!

In this point, the Human Race also grasped the initiative!

And what made the West Moyu Holy Land side feel most headache was the removal of dark pawns; since the war began, targeting the survival of the peerless array,

the West Moyu Holy Land had secretly sent dark pawns to break in in many areas; some were biased toward death soldiers, choosing to attack directly!

Some were lurking!

And all the purposes were to destroy the peerless array!

This matter was very big, so the West Moyu Holy Land had prepared detailed plans and steps for this!

But during this period, the exposure of lurkers was obviously more frequent!

All of this appeared before and after Feng Lin Tao was conferred as Marquis, and intensified until now, when he was conferred as King, reaching its peak!

But if it were just like this, it actually could not prove Feng Lin Tao's role and value; after all, many things here, the West Moyu Holy Land side knew clearly that with Feng Lin Tao's former identity, it was impossible for him to know!

It was just that... at the moment of Conferring as King, using ten thousand Holy Land prisoners of war as a blood sacrifice for celebration, this matter was too big for the West Moyu Holy Land!

These ten thousand prisoners of war had their own relatives, their own Dao companions, their own fellow disciples, and friends; radiating outward, it could affect dozens or hundreds of times more!

If they had died in battle on the battlefield, it would be fine; the West Moyu Holy Land clansmen would be sad, but would not stir up intense anger, but once they were publicly blood-sacrificed...

This would instantly ignite the hatred of all clansmen within the West Moyu Holy Land.

But because of the existence of the array, there were very few Human Race prisoners of war on the West Moyu Holy Land side, so wanting to use the same method to retaliate was like punching cotton, full of powerlessness!

Therefore, public blood sacrifice would further increase the anger of the West Moyu Holy Land clansmen.

And Feng Lin Tao, as the executor and the one celebrating his Conferring as King because of this matter, would directly become the target of hatred for all clansmen within the West Moyu Holy Land.

So, when the Empress's words were transmitted, and the moment Feng Lin Tao thanked her excitedly, outside the peerless array in the firmament, the Holy Land roared, and divine senses were emitted from within, locking onto this array area!

Within it, anger was towering, and killing intent was unprecedented.

Regardless of whether it was smart or not, regardless of how to choose, this matter...

was unsolvable!

Because this was demand-determined, this was an open conspiracy.

Like a raging fire, sweeping across the heavens and earth!

Letting Feng Lin Tao's thoughts surge violently!

Cunning by nature, he was naturally not a stupid person; the events of this period had long made him anxious in his heart, and especially now... he had been panicked to the extreme in his heart!

This was not any conspiracy at all, so he knew very well the significance of this matter!

"This is forcing me to have no way out."

"Making me completely and thoroughly bound to the Human Race."

"And this is only the first; that Empress clearly has a second purpose."

"He clearly wants to increase my value infinitely, raising me fatter and fatter, at least to the point of making the majority of the West Moyu Holy Land clansmen hate me to the extreme!"

"In this way, even if the high-level officials of the West Moyu Holy Land see that I am wronged and see the problem, after all, many intelligence reports, I don't know either."

"However... if the majority of the West Moyu Holy Land clansmen hate me to the bone, then in reality, whether I am wronged or not is no longer important!"

"I have become a target... For the Holy Land, pushing the responsibility for the defeat onto me can better stimulate the madness and fighting spirit of the clansmen, which is beneficial to the Holy Land's war!"

"For the Human Race, it is the same, because if I attract the endless hatred of the Holy Land side, then I naturally become the Human Race's bargaining chip!"

"Once the Human Race loses the war, they only need to hand me over to obtain other war benefits."

"After all, the Human Race has already pushed me to the extreme, and the Holy Land clansmen's killing intent toward me exceeds all!"

"Even if the West Moyu Holy Land high-level officials know clearly and are somewhat unwilling, forced by the clansmen's mood and public opinion, they will finally go with the flow and acknowledge this matter!"

"Truly ruthless."

"Whether it is the Human Race or the Holy Land, they are all groups of old and cunning people."

Amidst the surging thoughts, Feng Lin Tao maintained the excitement on his expression, gazed at the Holy Land outside the array, then looked toward the Human Race Imperial Palace, finally hardened his heart, lifted his hand, and pressed down toward the West Moyu blooming below!

Cultivation erupted.

The heavens and earth roared; inside the array, ten percent of the suppressed West Moyu cultivators had their physical bodies collapse and their forms and spirits destroyed.

Outside the array, the West Moyu Holy Land side, seeing this, emitted roars one after another!

Feng Lin Tao's eyes were blood-red, putting on a bloodthirsty look, walking forward under the attention of the Human Race, and the slaughter... unfolded again!

Following the death of the prisoners of war, following the confusion of blood, Feng Lin Tao seemed to enjoy it very much, looking at the Holy Land crowd outside the array, each of them liver and gallbladder splitting!

They watched their clansmen die; among them were their elders, their fellow disciples, their offspring... and this kind of death was not decent, and it was cruel!

But this was war, regardless of right or wrong!

From the moment the Holy Land descended and opened the war of invasion, the positions of both sides had already been decided!

Either you die, or I die.

So the Human Race gazed coldly, various clans were the same, Xu Qing did not stop it, and Erniu was licking his lips!

And Feng Lin Tao's slaughter was even more crazy!

For him, he only looked at his own interests and cared about the consequences of killing prisoners, not the process!

Finally, after an incense stick of time, when Feng Lin Tao slapped the last prisoner of war to death, his whole body was filled with blood, his expression was ferocious, and he lifted his head to gaze at the Holy Land side in the firmament, sneering!

Afterward, he bowed toward the Human Race Imperial Palace direction!

"Thank you, Majesty, for the fulfillment."

From the cruelty of the strike, as well as the words, behavior, and attitude, no problems could be found in Feng Lin Tao; he perfectly cooperated with the Human Race to create such a target that attracted the hatred of the West Moyu Holy Land!

Xu Qing gazed at this scene, a dark glint appearing in his eyes!

Erniu, beside him, smiled!

"This Little Fengzi indeed has the posture of an overlord; it seems we don't need to force him, I'm afraid he himself had subsequent plans long before coming to the Human Race..."

"So to ensure the fishing is successful, Little A-Qing, in the coming days, we must find an opportunity to get five pieces of his flesh to perform my Great Five-Ox Tracing Origin Ruthless Dao."

Xu Qing had the same intention and nodded!

Afterward, the two hid in the crowd and disappeared!

Time passed slowly, and half a month passed!

During this half month, the battles between the Human Race and the West Moyu Holy Land became more frequent, especially the dark pawns sent by the Holy Land side, which were more numerous than before!

And besides the order to destroy the array, all the dark pawns had an additional task!

To assassinate Feng Lin Tao.

It was really because during this half month, the matter of slaughtering prisoners of war appeared again, and many merits on the battlefield were also added to Feng Lin Tao by the Human Race side!

All of this made Feng Lin Tao's name rise in the Wanggu Eastern Realm, and he finally became the publicly recognized number one hatred within the West Moyu Holy Land.

Countless West Moyu clansmen wished they could swallow him alive!

So assassination naturally appeared.

To protect this meritorious official, the Human Race side increased the personal guards around Feng Lin Tao!

And Feng Lin Tao, it seemed, had also completely identified with the Human Race from heart to body, and even several times, he actively applied to go out to kill the enemy, seemingly hating the West Moyu Holy Land even more than the Human Race!

But under the Empress's holy favor, he was not allowed to leave the array, only allowed to search for dark pawns within the Human Race Imperial Domain!

This made Feng Lin Tao very regretful, but he completely obeyed the Empress's decree; after that, his slaughter of dark pawns was extremely cruel, and he himself occasionally suffered injuries, but they were only minor injuries!

Until... another seven days passed!

The Human Race and the West Moyu Holy Land side, because of the appearance of a West Moyu Great Emperor, escalated from small-scale battles and opened a great war!

Several masters descended, and many Hidden Gods walked out!

The Human Race side, the Empress descended on the battlefield in person, and the past Human Emperor Corpse Gods

also descended on the battlefield!

Heavenly Kings of various clans all did the same, erupting into a battle that shone upon the heavens and earth!

And at the critical moment of this great war, when the power of the Human Race Imperial Domain had a blank space, an assassination unfolded in the suburbs of the Human Race Imperial Capital!

Executing the assassination mission were two Seventh Realm Hidden Gods of the West Moyu Holy Land.

They had lurked for a long time and had never been exposed; now, without hesitation, they launched a thunderous strike!

The target of the assassination was Feng Lin Tao, who was returning after capturing dark pawns with his personal guards.

This assassination was extremely precise in timing, and the process was tragic!

Feng Lin Tao's personal guards all died in battle, and he himself could not escape; his physical body collapsed, his soul was shattered, and his head was taken away!

Although Zhenyan King rushed over with the fastest speed, he was still a step late, keeping one of the West Moyu Holy Land assassins, but unable to stop the other from leaving with Feng Lin Tao's head!

After this matter spread, outside the array, the West Moyu Holy Land side immediately emitted excited cheers, while the Empress, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, but now clearly had no energy to consider this matter; the war... continued!

It was just that no one noticed that the Zhenyan King, who returned with the corpses of Feng Lin Tao's personal guards, returned to his mansion in the Human Race Imperial Capital, and those corpses of the personal guards who died in battle actually turned into illusions, becoming points of crystal light, converging into the figure of the Dong Sheng Human Emperor!

These personal guards were all fake!

Zhenyan King had no surprise about this, only bowed his head, then gazed into the distance, a meaningful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth!

At the same time, outside the Human Race Imperial Domain, at the border with the Gray Sea Great Domain, in a barren mountain, a cave was hidden!

This cave was hidden, and this place was barren, so it was difficult to be detected!

And at this moment, inside the cave, a figure sat cross-legged!

This body merged into the darkness, looking a bit blurred!

Until a moment later, the eyes of this figure opened suddenly, revealing a sharp glint, and his whole body shone with light, making the pitch-black cave have a trace of brightness!

With the help of this trace of brightness, it could be seen that this figure was a youth, whose appearance was somewhat similar to the Human Race, except that on his forehead, there was a red line trace composed of countless tiny runes!

That was the symbol of the Liaoxuan Clan, and it quickly faded!

"Whether it is the Empress or the West Moyu Holy Land, what can they do to me."

The youth murmured!

"I went to the Human Race, the purpose was naturally not long-term attachment; although the Empress's open conspiracy made me a bit passive, overall... it did not deviate from my plan."

"Finally succeeded in faking death."

"Next, the outside world thinks I have fallen, so this Liaoxuan body of mine can be considered to have truly shaken off causality."

This person was exactly Feng Lin Tao. ===== CHAPTER 967 =====

"From here on, the outside world believes I have fallen, so this body of mine, Liao Xuan, can be considered truly free from karma."

This person was none other than Feng Litao.
