Chapter 1459

"Lord of the Xuehe Sect, our grand plan relies on you—do not disappoint this seat's expectations!"

"Ancestor, rest assured—the Xuehe Sect will never betray you for all eternity!"

The moment his voice faded, the Xuehe Ancestor's body suddenly stood upright.

On his face appeared a sinister expression.

Then he turned and left the secret chamber.

Since the Xuehe Ancestor refused to submit, there was nothing left but to act himself.

The people of the Xuehe Sect soon faced their nightmare.

An old man appeared.

From his eye sockets radiated a pale red glow.

In his hand he held a short knife.

Wherever he passed, no one could block him for a single strike.

The Xuehe Ancestor was even sent flying by a single palm blow.

"Boom!"

He fell into the deep pit below.

His body trembled, his face pale and ghastly.

"Hehe, you refused to submit."

"Then you must die!"

The old man let out a chilling laugh and walked toward the Xuehe Ancestor.

The opponent's strength was immense.

The Xuehe Ancestor was no match at all—only escape remained.

But where could he flee?

The old man followed close behind, his short knife slashing down fiercely.

"Ssssh!"

In an instant, the Xuehe Ancestor's head flew upward.

Thick blood cascaded like a waterfall around him.

On the old man's face appeared a look of satisfaction.

At this moment, he was clearly enjoying himself.

"These are the Xuehe Sect's resources—divide them among yourselves!"

Then he tossed down a storage ring and walked off into the distance.

And such events.

Were occurring across all major factions.

The death of the Xuehe Ancestor.

Had spurred on these hidden forces.

They surged wildly into the Xuehe Sect.

Beginning to divide up the treasures left behind.

In a short time, the Xuehe Sect was utterly destroyed.

And this drew even more eyes to it.

The Xuehe Sect's resources were sufficient to cultivate a batch of experts.

Especially the pills.

The pills crafted by the Xuehe Sect's pill masters were all top-grade.

Unfortunately, this Xuehe Ancestor had been too greedy.

Otherwise, how could such disaster have befallen him today?

When all matters were concluded,

In Ximen Wudi's mind, the system voice rang out.

"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have gained 50 billion merit points!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have gained 50 billion experience points!"

……

As these rewards appeared,

A smile also formed on Ximen Wudi's lips.

This time, the gains were enormous.

And within the Han Empire, he believed,

If he could destroy those sects,

His accumulated merit points would reach a terrifying level.

There was even hope he could condense the Han Empire's golden dragon of national fortune.

Just as Ximen Wudi prepared to leave the Xuehe Sect,

Within Tiangong,

The Han Empire's army was assembling.

Ximen Wudi planned to attack other Zong Sects near the Han Empire.

After this great battle, he must accumulate even more merit points.

And just as Dahan was gathering its army.

All around Dahan, however, quite a few small forces were converging upon it.

They did not dare strike Dahan directly, but were preparing to launch a surprise attack.

Because they did not believe Dahan would be completely unguarded.

If that were so, even Ximen Wudi would suffer a loss.

And just as they had only just arrived.

"Boom—!"

A great army charged out.

It was none other than the Eastern Depot.

They patrolled atop the city walls every day.

At this moment, they suddenly noticed something amiss.

Immediately, they pounced into the battlefield to slaughter.

The blazing killing intent made those Zong Sect disciples tremble with terror.

"Damn it, it's the Eastern Depot, retreat!"

Seeing this scene, someone roared.

But it was already too late.

The Eastern Depot's warriors were fierce and unmatched in bravery.

Besides, those Zong Sect people were no match for them in the first place.

After only a brief moment, the battle was over.

This time, not a single person survived.

When all the corpses had been dragged out and burned.

Outside the Eastern Depot's main camp.

A figure walked out.

It was none other than Dahan's Prime Minister Li Si.

At this moment, a sharp glint flickered in his eyes.

Then he said slowly.

"Relay my imperial decree: order every commandery and prefecture's governor to devote all efforts to exterminating these bandits!

Remember, you must wipe out this band of robbers!"
