Chapter 1322 Settlement (4)

"What should we do?" Inside the Myriad Pill Palace, Du Huanfeng asked the remaining elders with a pale face. He didn't expect his father and grandfather to secretly leave without bringing him along.

What was even worse was that they actually died in Yun Lintian's hands.

Thinking of the grudge between him and Yun Lintian, Du Huanfeng's heart sank to the very bottom. His soul involuntarily shivered as he could feel death was coming.

"The situation comes to this point now. We only have two choices left. One is to leave this world as soon as possible. The second one is throwing everything to the palace master and submitting to Yun Lintian." Du Zhen said solemnly.

"You want me to lower my head? Do you really think he will spare me?" Du Huanfeng said with an unsightly expression. "I'd rather risk my life to leave this world than submit to him."

"Let's go!" He got up and prepared to leave.

"Not good, Young Master!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man rushed into the room and said. "The spatial tunnel is gone now!"

"What!?" Du Huanfeng and the other elders were shocked.

"How could it happen?" Du Huanfeng didn't understand. As far as he knew, the spatial tunnel was extremely sturdy that even the Divine King from the Divine Realm couldn't shake it. How could it disappear all of a sudden?

"After Yun Lintian left, we immediately rushed in to see the situation and discovered the tunnel was already gone." The middle-aged man hurriedly said.

"Could it be… Yun Lintian destroyed it?" Du Zhen said in doubt.

"Impossible!" Du Huanfeng blurted out.

"Why is it impossible? Don't forget that he has been defying every commonsense from the first time we met him until now." Du Zhen said with a darkened expression. This useless bastard was still delusional.

Du Zhen glanced at the remaining elders and asked. "I don't care anymore. I will submit it to Yun Lintian. Anyway, getting humiliated is still better than dead."

"No! He won't spare us!" Du Huanfeng shouted.

Pa!

Du Zhen slapped Du Huanfeng's face and scolded him. "Idiot! Do you think you're still in charge here? Without your father and grandfather, you are nothing but trash."

"You!" Du Huanfeng spat out a mouthful of blood and glared at Du Zhen angrily.

Seeing this, no one came to help him up.

Du Zhen was right. Even if they had to live in shame under Yun Lintian's feet, it was better than dead anyway.

What was more? They didn't have a grudge against Yun Lintian directly. There was a high chance Yun Lintian would leave them alive.

"All of you…" Du Huanfeng was so angry that he vomited another mouthful of blood when he saw their cold eyes.

"Oh? What happens to our high and mighty Young Master Du? Why are you lying on the floor?"

Suddenly, a playful voice resounded from above, startling everyone inside the room. When they looked over, their expressions changed drastically as they saw Yun Lintian silently float in the air, looking down at them with a playful smile.

Besides him were Yun Qianxue, Qing Xiaoting, Tao Kang, Shen Liqiu, and Yun Chenyu.

"Yun Lintian!" Du Huanfeng snarled furiously. His eyes were full of deep hatred as he glared at Yun Lintian. Everything was because of this man. If it wasn't for him, how could he fall into this situation?

All of a sudden, Du Zhen's figure appeared beside Du Huanfeng, and he quickly sealed the latter's profound strength before looking at Yun Lintian. "We are willing to submit to you, Sect Master Yun. As for this little bastard, you can do whatever you want with him."

Yun Lintian looked at Du Zhen and said. "Why do you think I will accept all of you?"

Du Zhen took a deep breath and said with a serious expression. "First of all, we did everything according to Du Xiaotian's order. All the conflicts between us came from him and this little bastard. I believe Sect Master Yun should understand that we had no choice but to obey."

"Secondly, everyone here had no direct conflict with you. We didn't even harm you and your people. Those who attacked you have already died. It could be said we are innocent here."

"Lastly, our Myriad Pill Palace might become several times weaker, but our foundation is still solid enough. Instead of destroying us, wouldn't it be better to annex us and let us serve you?"

"Furthermore, Sect Master Yun has become the number one expert in the world now. I believe you will definitely have to care about your reputation. Sparing our worthless lives could be a good start."

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Yun Lintian clapped his hands while saying. "Marvellous! No wonder you can get this position. Your reasoning skill is very strong."

Du Zhen smiled faintly and said. "I'm merely trying to survive."

Yun Lintian nodded and said. "Everything you said is quite convincing… But you're wrong about one thing. I have never cared about my reputation. So, sparing all of you for a useless reputation has never been in my head."

As his voice fell, everyone could feel a chill running down their spine. Their hearts tightened as they looked at Yun Lintian nervously.

"Moreover," Yun Lintian paused briefly and looked at Yun Chenyu. "It's not me who has a deep grudge against you, but my disciple. Your life and death are in her hands."

Du Zhen and the others shuddered. They looked at Yun Chenyu with pleading eyes.

"Young Miss, we have heard about what happened to your family, and we are sorry about it. However, we can swear that those who harmed your family back then have already died. They were the secret guards of Du Xiaotian." Du Zhen said solemnly.

"If you don't believe me, you can check on our souls one by one."

Yun Chenyu looked at everyone coldly. Her eyes were full of killing intent and deep hatred.

"You don't have to care about me. I fully support your decision no matter what it is." Yun Lintian said gently.

Yun Chenyu nodded firmly. She took the rusty knife that belonged to her parents out and pointed it toward everyone below.

At the same time, Yun Lintian had also released his aura, completely restraining Du Zhen and the others, causing their faces to turn ghastly pale.

Yun Chenyu gnashed her teeth with hatred to the point blood slowly flowed out of her mouth. Her heart was ablaze with a flame of fury.

"All of you deserve to die!"
