Chapter 403: A Massacre

~8 min read 1,459 words

Under the pitch-black night, Ye Lin sped along according to the map.

Soon, the outline of the next city appeared in Ye Lin's field of vision.

Ye Lin didn't say a word and directly raised his hand.

"Forbidden Curse: World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder!"

Thunder arcs and electric light gathered together, forming a dazzling world-extinguishing thunder pillar, instantly destroying the city wall.

Stones cracked, dust flew, leaving only a piece of broken walls and ruins.

"Forbidden Curse: Spirits Return to the Afterlife Realm!"

After the undead army surrounded the city, Ye Lin began to close the door to beat the dog.

With a wave of the Human Emperor Flag, the soul army appeared instantly!

The Sang Country people clearly didn't expect that someone would dare to carry out a city slaughter on their territory.

Many professionals soared into the sky, wanting to stop Ye Lin.

But these professionals who didn't even reach level 70 were as fragile as paper in front of Ye Lin. A forbidden curse thrown over could kill a large group.

Someone realized something was wrong and turned to run, but just as they reached the edge of the barrier, their head was chopped off by a skeleton warrior with a sword.

This wasn't a war; it was a one-sided massacre.

During this time, people were constantly kneeling and begging for mercy, but Ye Lin didn't show the slightest bit of mercy.

In his eyes, these people were just a pile of walking experience points.

At this moment, Ye Lin was the most fair person; regardless of whether they were male or female, strong or weak, Ye Lin's attitude was the same.

Kill!

During the first Great Human-Demon War, the Demon Clan didn't do less of that city-slaughtering behavior on human territory.

The Demon Clan didn't just slaughter cities; they also ate people.

Many people watched with their own eyes as their wives, sons, parents, brothers, and sisters were chewed up bit by bit by the Demon Clan and swallowed into their stomachs.

That kind of hatred is never forgotten and is enough to reach the heavens!

Since the Sang Country colluded with the Demon Clan, they were no different from the Demon Clan; they were just demons wearing human skin.

Ye Lin only killed and didn't eat. Counting it this way, he was actually quite kind.

At least that's what he thought himself.

Another half an hour passed, and on the Sang Country's territory, there was one more empty ghost city.

Ye Lin carried the Human Emperor Flag and headed to the next city.

Everything was the same familiar look.

One thunder, one barrier, one group of soul bodies, slaughtering one city.

As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar, and the third time you slide right through.

Ye Lin had already gained experience in slaughtering. Upon entering the city, the first thing he did was kill all the top professionals.

In this way, the pace of the soul army wouldn't be blocked.

Soon, the third city was also cleared by Ye Lin.

This night was definitely an unforgettable night for the entire Sang Country.

By the time the next day dawned, Ye Lin had already slaughtered nine cities in a row!

One of the cities was a large city with two Fan Xing Realm experts garrisoned, but they couldn't stop Ye Lin at all.

Even Fan Xing Realm experts were just slightly more troublesome large ants in front of Ye Lin.

Forbidden Curse Master paired with the Eternal Balance—this combination bloomed with its true light for the first time on the Sang Country's land!

Just as dawn broke the next day, the entire Sang Country was completely boiling!

Someone was slaughtering cities on their Sang Country's territory, and they slaughtered nine cities in a row, with nearly three hundred thousand people neither seen alive nor dead!

This news shocked all the high-level officials of the Sang Country, and they immediately sent people to investigate!

But when the people responsible for the investigation arrived inside the city Ye Lin slaughtered last night, everyone was stunned!

In the entire city, there wasn't a single living creature!

The ant nests were poured with aluminum, the earthworms were chopped into meat paste, and even the grass on the lawn was pulled out!

The people in the entire city had disappeared without a trace, and everywhere were dilapidated houses and rubble.

But even though it looked so tragic, there wasn't a single corpse in the entire city, and not even a tiny bit of bloodstain could be seen, as if the people in the entire city had vanished into thin air.

They went to several other cities, but without exception, they were all scenes like this.

This strange scene made everyone who came to investigate unable to stop shivering.

A chill ran up their tailbones all the way to their crowns.

What was more critical was that such a big event as slaughtering a city had no movement at all last night, and it wasn't discovered until the next morning.

What kind of existence was the person who did this?

What kind of strength was needed to complete all this silently?

Where did those killed people go? That was nearly three hundred thousand people!

Three hundred thousand corpses could be piled into a mountain, right? How could they disappear into thin air?

The strange situation of these nine cities was soon passed to the ears of the high-level officials of Great Sang.

Beside a huge round table sat five old men, each with anger and unease in their eyes.

The white-bearded old man who once led the army to attack You Daxia was also here, but he could only sit in a side seat. Sitting in the main seat was an old woman who was old beyond recognition.

The skin on her face had already sagged, covered in age spots.

"Overnight, nine cities turned into dead cities, nearly three hundred thousand people neither seen alive nor dead. Who can give me a reasonable explanation?"

The old woman's sharp voice echoed in the room, every word like a sharp thorn, stabbing the heart of everyone present.

"Could it be You Daxia's revenge on us?" another old man asked.

"You Daxia is still under our surveillance. Their top experts haven't been dispatched."

The white-bearded old man shook his head, hesitated for a while, and said.

"The one who could do this... should only be the Demon Clan, right?"

As soon as this was said, the five people present fell silent.

Although all five of them were Lie Yang Realm, every time they thought of the Demon Clan, everyone felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Slaughtering nine cities isn't difficult; what's difficult is slaughtering nine cities overnight without being discovered and taking away all the corpses.

Only the Demon Clan would need human corpses. After all, there are many demons in the Demon Realm who feed on humans.

"Mother Shenshan, now that things have reached this point, perhaps... we can only invite the Saintess out," the white-bearded old man said to the old woman in a deep voice.

Unexpectedly, the old woman shook her head upon hearing this, the sagging skin on her face swinging along with it.

"The Saintess cannot help us for the time being. Her slumber was interrupted halfway. Some time ago, someone broke into her resting place halfway. According to the Saintess, that person held an Origin Ancient Artifact!"

"What?!" X4

The other four all let out an exclamation.

"How is this possible? The place where the Saintess slumbers is located in the deepest part of the Sacrificial Divine Prison. How could someone run to such a place and disturb her sleep?"

You must know that the Sacrificial Divine Prison is one of the most important places in the Sang Country. Usually, it is heavily guarded, and ordinary people can't even get close.

"I don't know the specific situation very well, but the Saintess looks extremely angry, even somewhat mentally unstable. She can only continue to slumber for a short time, so we can only rely on ourselves for this matter."

Mother Shenshan slowly stood up, her dry fingers tapping lightly on the round table, issuing orders in an orderly manner.

"Haidou, you take five Hao Yue Realm experts and garrison the south."

"Xiang Genxin, you take five Hao Yue Realm experts and garrison the north."

"Tuodou, Keisuke, you lead five Hao Yue Realm experts each and garrison the upper and lower parts of the central region."

"It doesn't matter who did the city slaughtering; our top priority now is that we absolutely cannot let this kind of thing happen again, otherwise the entire Sang Country will fall into panic!" ===== CHAPTER 404 =====
