Chapter 684: Ye Lin

The Hall Master of the No-Thought Hall's words made several Elders nod repeatedly.

If they had to talk about righteousness and morality in their actions, then what difference would they have from that group of hypocritical righteous sects?

They also finally understood the painstaking efforts of the Hall Master of the No-Thought Hall in setting up such an illusion to test Ye Lin.

Memory is sealed, so people will make the choices that follow their hearts the most.

Everyone looked toward the illusion one after another, wanting to see, would this disciple with forbidden spiritual root talent choose to abandon the city and flee, or choose to stay in the city and die?

And when they saw the choice Ye Lin made, both the Hall Master of the No-Thought Hall and several Elders couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"He actually still chose to stay in the city; it's a pity for his such good talent."

"It's not a pity; think of a way to see if his forbidden spiritual root can be extracted."

"Not bad, his character, although not suitable for entering our demonic path, but the talent cannot be wasted!"

Several Elders had already sentenced Ye Lin to death in their hearts.

In fact, there was no other way. Tens of thousands of years ago, the demonic path was not weaker than the righteous path at all, and could even be called evenly matched.

At that time, the supreme powerhouse of the demonic path, known as the Wuji Demon Emperor, was incomparably powerful and even raised an Undying Demon Dragon as a pet.

Looking at the entire Changsheng Continent, no one was his opponent.

At that time, the top powerhouses of the righteous sects attacked together, and only then could they barely fight to a draw with the Wuji Demon Emperor.

But the outrageous thing happened; this Wuji Demon Emperor didn't know if some nerve in his brain had been pulled.

He suddenly felt that the existence of the demonic path caused the common people to suffer, which was really against the harmony of heaven.

So... he suddenly personally started to clean up the demonic sects!

More than ninety percent of the demonic sects were killed at that time, and even their heritage was destroyed.

The remaining ten percent of the demonic sects also died or hid under the siege of the righteous sects.

It was also from then on that demonic path people became rats crossing the street, everyone shouting to beat them.

So later, wanting to join the demonic path added a standard of testing character.

Those with bad character, no matter how good their talent is, are not wanted, for fear that another cub like the Wuji Demon Emperor will emerge.

Just as the Hall Master of the No-Thought Hall was preparing to close the illusion and capture Ye Lin, Joy Elder suddenly exclaimed.

"No! You guys look quickly, what is that kid doing?"

Everyone looked toward the illusion in unison.

No reinforcements, plague outbreak, food running out, disparity in troops; this was clearly a dead end; could it be that he still wanted to struggle on his deathbed?

I saw that in the illusion, Ye Lin actually started to make a fire and cook, and pieces of meat were put into a super large pot by him, and there were twenty such pots.

*Gurgle gurgle gurgle. *

The boiling meat soup gave off an incomparably rich fragrance.

Ye Lin stood in front of the pot, looking at the two thousand soldiers in front of him.

They were almost all injured, emitting a faint smell of blood and rot.

"Soldiers! I believe you also know the situation; this city cannot be defended."

As soon as Ye Lin's voice fell, the soldiers were in a commotion.

"Quiet!"

Ye Lin shouted, and then continued to say.

"Since this city cannot be defended, then we won't defend it! I now need five thousand brothers to rush out of the city! These five thousand people, once they go, they will almost certainly die!"

"However, these five thousand people are the key to our victory! This General guarantees that these five thousand people will get three times the death pension!"

"Now, those who are willing to rush out of the city, come forward and eat meat!"

Ye Lin shouted.

He had high prestige in the army, and the soldiers trusted him very much, so almost as soon as Ye Lin's voice fell, soldiers took the initiative to stand out.

"General, I'll go!"

"I'll go too!"

"And me, give the silver to my mother!"

At this time, the soldiers were almost all hungry, and they couldn't care about the threat of death; in front of them, there was only that pot of boiling meat soup.

Soon, five thousand people were gathered.

"Very good, eat meat, drink soup!"

Ye Lin ordered people to distribute the meat soup.

After the five thousand soldiers were full, Ye Lin fed the remaining meat soup to the few hundred warhorses left in the city.

And then, the city gate opened wide, and a few hundred soldiers rode warhorses and rushed toward the enemy country's army!

The remaining four thousand soldiers, although walking on foot, had endless strength after eating meat and rushed over with all their might.

However, these five thousand people facing the enemy country's thirty thousand army were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

A round of volleys, and nearly half of the soldiers were shot into sieves before they even got close.

In less than half an hour, all five thousand people were killed, and finally, only about one thousand people successfully engaged in close combat with the enemy country's army.

And five thousand people died, only causing less than five hundred casualties to the other side.

It can be said that this was an absolute crushing defeat.

Even the enemy country's general couldn't help but burst into laughter, mocking Ye Lin for really losing his mind, making one bad move after another.

Looking at this scene, although Ye Lin's heart was heavy, he knew that they were going to win this battle!

The ones who rushed out just now were not a shock force at all, but a biological force!

The city was short of food, so how could there be meat soup under normal circumstances?

These meat soups were naturally made from corpses infected with the plague.

This move can be said to kill two birds with one stone, which can alleviate the pressure of food, boost morale, solve the plague problem, and create a batch of biological soldiers; it can be said to be killing four birds with one stone.

Sure enough, that night, people in the enemy country's army began to have sudden plagues.

Then it spread from ten to one hundred, from one hundred to ten thousand!

The thirty thousand army was huge, and the plague spread very fast; in this situation, the enemy country could only choose to leave behind a pile of corpses and retreat first.

The city, defended!

The soldiers in the city suddenly erupted into a cheer.

Although they didn't know why the enemy suddenly retreated, they knew that they didn't have to die!

Only Ye Lin's eyes had no joy; in order to prevent the enemy from invading again, he decided to fight back.

So he immediately sent out a small team to bury the corpses that died of the plague, so that they could be used when attacking the city, directly using catapults to throw them into the other party's city.

In the No-Thought Hall, there was silence.

A moment later, the Anger Elder, who had the most fiery temper among the Seven-Emotion Elders, directly slapped the table and stood up.

"No one is allowed to stop me; today, the old man is going to eliminate demons and defend the Dao!" ===== CHAPTER 685 =====
