Chapter 719: Ruling the Black Snow Grassland

~8 min read 1,554 words

Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun fell silent.

The surrounding generals stood mute, too afraid to speak.

No one dared to be the first to act; the army surrounding them no longer felt safe.

The Master Tushan handmaidens watched in silence.

As time passed without a response, drops of crimson began to appear in their eyes, killing intent overflowing and unmasked.

In this war, thirty thousand Master Tushan handmaidens died; too many had perished, a victory bought with the deaths of their teachers, friends, and sisters.

Chun Chun Jian's expression softened as he began to suppress the extreme forces within.

"They should all be killed!"

He suspected that even if he went now to stop the Master Tushan handmaiden group from obtaining the benefits they desired, they would attack without hesitation, regardless of who came; without repressing them again, he could not fully control this unit.

Chun Chun Jian agreed.

After hundreds of years of struggle, he was all too familiar with this kind of danger.

Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun asked coldly.

It even affected the celestial phenomena; though it was a blazing sun, flakes of ice fell from the sky, layer upon layer covering the ground.

Even Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun could not strip her of her official post.

Roughly equal division, yet the power of the five surnames of the Liu Dao Sect remained uneliminated, and vast numbers of cultivators had not been mobilized; however, the Master Tushan handmaidens' expansion direction was much closer to the Liu Dao Sect's mountain gate, which unexpectedly added many dangers.

"Is anyone willing to seize this overwhelming wealth?"

Now, only the first stage of victory had been achieved; the subsequent enemies—the Zhengmo Alliance army, the Darifa Sword Sect army, the Darifa Sect army—were each stronger than the last; truly not a good time to turn hostile, merely a helpless choice.

Wait a few hundred years, and another elite army would emerge.

The causality technique of Shuo Yang Canghai Tianjun protected them; if effective, there was no need to worry about numerous Nascent Soul cultivators setting an ambush; if ineffective, this distance required no worry.

"Everyone, do not say I blocked your path; not favoring our own people, now you may take it yourselves."

The Master Tushan handmaidens were not blind; naturally, they would strengthen as well; by then, casualties might be even more severe.

Especially the "Nine Sections of the Dao Canon of Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, and Yang," this Bing Gong Fa referenced parts of the Darifa Sword Pavilion's Bing Gong Fa; aside from setting an inescapable location marker, it left no hidden loopholes or backdoors in the Gong Fa, showing extreme confidence, completely unnecessary to have such things.

In the Shen Shi Master Tushan Master Tushan Zhongting meeting, several cold voices rang out.

"Seconded..."

Seeing this, Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun felt disappointment in his heart.

He turned, looking at many shocked and angry subordinates, and said coldly: "One hundred thousand may challenge any thousand-man squad under Chun Chun Jian Daoist's command; the victor may obtain what they desire."

Externally manifested,

silence reigned like a flock of crows.

"Miss Chun Chun Jian, what do you think of this proposal?"

"A hundredfold numerical advantage!"

The two sides actually possessed considerable complementarity.

"Since none of you wish to seize such wealth, then let it be given to Miss Chun Chun Jian."

And even stronger than before; no need to regret anything; the process of slaughter was also the process of practicing and refining the sword, nothing wasted.

Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun smelled the terrible crisis of death.

These various considerations were precisely why he hesitated, unable to make a decision for so long.

For a long time,

though the Master Tushan handmaidens numbered only a thousand, they had more than ten Jin Dan cultivators among them; the weakest soldiers were at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment; how could this army of mixed Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, though numerous, resist?

Only when the top people died would it be their turn to step forward, gaining more Nascent Soul opportunities, even though Nascent Soul opportunities were currently still a shadow.

"We can fight independently; after digesting the entire Black Snow Grassland and the territories of the other five surnames of the Liu Dao Sect, we can independently achieve victory in the Wang Ting war..."

Resolution after resolution passed, and the killing intent of the Master Tushan handmaidens grew increasingly bone-chillingly cold.

Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun sighed; having seen countless schemes and intrigues among cultivators, he was helpless; he took out a map and drew a line on it with a blood flag: "The remaining five surnames' territories of the Liu Dao Sect shall be divided thus; you and I each attack the places we need; how about that?"

All was silent; no one responded; no uproar arose.

Dong Xue Dong Xue Liuyun quickly shouted, fearing even a moment's delay: "You have Li You Da Gong; what is five percent? It is only right!"

Chun Chun Jian looked at the map, his brows furrowing slightly.

At such close range, this crisis was even far greater than when fighting the Liu Dao Sect.

"Good."

"Willing!"

"Kill them, kill them all; it is the perfect time..."

If it failed, there would be nothing.

"The territories of the six surnames of the Liu Dao Sect belong to us, belong to the Master; why should half be divided..."

Jiang Ding watched, silently clicking his tongue.

"A band of bandits, chaotic and disordered; perhaps they are no longer needed..."

If a subordinate truly went out to fight, he might feel anger in his heart, but more likely joy; subordinates would only urge him to act if they truly felt confident; thus, completely dominating the Liu Dao Sect grassland might not be impossible.

These extreme handmaidens were originally a minority; more believed in strong cooperation until final victory.

Many handmaidens spoke with murderous intent, clearly intending to ignore the Blood King Army's choice; they had already planned a massacre, to eliminate dissenters first, no longer needed.

"Mutual aid, naturally."

After defeating the Liu Dao Sage Son's army, she could clearly feel that the causality technique on her body had become even more intense; if a Nascent Soul cultivator attacked, they would meet an even more tragic fate.

"In that case... let us part here."

A hundredfold was exactly the current total force gap between the Master Tushan handmaidens and the Blood King Army.

Among these subordinates, many valued money over life, paying no heed to power ratios or the greater situation.

He certainly had many concerns.

Whoever seeks to usurp the fruit shall die!

As if Chun Chun Jian had not heard the implication in his words, she nodded.

If the Dao soldiers rebel, I will personally slaughter them all and rebuild them anew.

Dong Xue Liu Yun suddenly shivered, keenly sensing something.

"Kill them,"

But now, knowing they cannot win, yet still provoking...

A typical sword cultivator with a rebellious Dao soldier.

These things made Dong Xue Liu Yun extremely angry, so he simply let them take it themselves, sparing himself from becoming an obstacle to his brothers' wealth and fortune.

Jin Dan cultivators are greedy, but not foolish.

But at this moment,

Dong Xue Liu Yun looked with cold eyes at the several people whose voices in the divine sense transmission were the most intense.

He did not believe that a mere maid, before the Great Dao of a Nascent Soul, would still be willing to pledge loyalty to another Nascent Soul Master Dinghai Zhenjun.

That is to say, not only the Black Snow Great Grasslands, but also five territories with depleted forces existed, and they were even more prosperous and vast, all waiting for them to occupy and liberate their enslaved sisters.

"I am willing to do so!"

"There is no objection."

Perhaps they merely thought that if they succeeded, everyone would be happy, and after all, it was not themselves taking the lead.

But now, the number of Extreme Maids continued to increase, spreading like fission.

"If there are those who do not submit,"

One by one, they all lowered their heads; no one responded.

Dong Xue Liu Yun looked deeply at her: "Our two families should watch over and assist each other, exchanging what we have and lack. May we both attain the Dao of Nascent Soul and not betray today's great vow."

The six surnames of the Liu Dao Sect, when combined, make up the complete Liu Dao Sect.

With such a vast army under his command, with numerous factions rising like a forest, each faction requiring balance, rashly deciding to split half the profits would cause fierce internal opposition that would shake his prestige.

Those whose interests were damaged did not care how many merits anyone had established or how much should be reasonably distributed; they only knew they had lost vast amounts of profit and thus harbored resentment.

What if a large number of Blood King Army Jin Dan and Foundation Establishment cultivators were strengthened?

The two great armies separated, each rushing toward their own direction.

Next, they would continuously expand into the territories of the five surnames of the Liu Dao Sect, expanding until they encountered resistance again, at which point they would stop.
