Chapter 89: Inescapable Labels

As soon as Luo Yuebai spoke, the entire square fell silent once again.The eight Golden Core cultivators’ faces were filled with uncertainty.

However, at this moment, they finally confirmed one thing: the Evil Moon Sect had ultimately failed to restrain their ambition and had begun to expand!

Linjiang City was just the first, but definitely not the last.

Neither Li Nanshan nor the Vice Sect Master of Spirit Sound Valley dared to reveal their stance immediately.

The eight cultivators exchanged a glance and directly flew away.

“Huayang Sect has sown the seeds of karma on Clear Wind Mountain, and today, they have reaped what they sowed.”

“We will report everything the Evil Moon Sect has done to our sect.”

“Not bad, Huayang Sect deserves its punishment, but it is not that easy for the Evil Moon Sect to act recklessly.”

“…”

At this time, each of the eight Golden Core cultivators dropped a harsh sentence.

Then, they directly flew away into the distance.

These eight guys seemed unwilling, but in reality, they had already completely distanced themselves from the situation through their harsh words.

Firstly, they explained that the destruction of Huayang Sect’s branch was a consequence of their own actions, which was their way of washing their hands of the matter.

As for the Evil Moon Sect occupying Linjiang City, although they didn’t dare to express their opinions, they had to maintain a stance of righteousness.

These guys were all old and cunning, and now that they knew about the Evil Moon Sect’s ambition, they just needed to report back to their sect honestly.

The sect’s decision wouldn’t affect them, and they wouldn’t suffer any losses.

Luo Yuebai’s mouth curled into a cold smile as he watched the eight Golden Core cultivators leave.

He only sent them off, without any intention of truly keeping them back.

After all, they were eight Golden Core cultivators.

After the eight Golden Core cultivators left, the remaining non-demonic cultivators on the square looked increasingly terrified.

All the disciples of Huayang Sect’s branch had been annihilated.

Their lives were now in Luo Yuebai’s hands, seemingly dependent on his whim.

At this time, Luo Yuebai approached Su Jingzhen again.

“Friend Su, the problem you were worried about earlier has been completely resolved by me.”

“No one will come to settle scores with you again.”

“Now, what do you think should be done with these people?”

Luo Yuebai’s tone was as casual as ever when speaking to Su Jingzhen.

However, Su Jingzhen’s heart had already begun to curse. Seaʀch* The Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Damn it, why are you asking me about this?

It seemed like he was being given the power to decide the fate of these people, but in reality, he was being bound to the demonic path.

Su Jingzhen believed that if he said a single word, “kill,” Luo Yuebai would unhesitatingly order the demonic cultivators to slaughter everyone on the scene.

Demonic cultivators were not to be trifled with.

And if he said “let them go,” Luo Yuebai would likely release them generously.

No matter which choice he made, it seemed to the onlookers that Su Jingzhen was giving orders.

“Fallen Daoist, you’re joking, right? This is Evil Moon Sect’s business, what does it have to do with me?”

Su Jingzhen still wanted to struggle a bit.

Luo Yuebai smiled again, “You’re wrong. I destroyed Huayang Sect’s branch earlier because you were afraid they would take revenge, so I did it for you.”

The implication was that he had done it all for Su Jingzhen.

Luo Yuebai continued, “If Friend Su truly doesn’t make a choice, I’ll have to take matters into my own hands and kill them all. To prevent them from harboring resentment towards you in the future.”

What!

This was directly pushing all the consequences onto himself?

But in his heart, he felt helpless.

At this time, he really had a feeling of being unable to resist.

And Shuang Jiang next to him was still expressionless, and of course she couldn’t care about this matter.

“Friend Su, please spare our lives, considering our past neighborly relationship.”

“Sir Su, although we didn’t have much interaction, we didn’t have any grudges either, right?”

“Friend Su, please spare our lives!”

“……”

Earlier, Luo Yuebai’s words hadn’t been intentionally spoken softly.

Everyone around had heard it.

At this time, they undoubtedly saw Su Jingzhen as their savior.

Their pitiful expressions were truly heartbreaking.

In the end, these people were indeed innocent.

Most of them were just struggling at the bottom of the cultivation world, trying to survive on the long and arduous path of cultivation.

Su Jingzhen sighed.

He had no grudges against these people in front of him.

Cultivators were selfish and cold, and Su Jingzhen could be ruthless, but he couldn’t bring himself to kill innocent people indiscriminately.

“If possible, Friend Luo, please spare their lives, since they’re just innocent people.”

Su Jingzhen sighed and said so.

When Su Jingzhen said this, Luo Yuebai’s smile grew even more radiant.

He lightly snapped his fingers, and soon, several people were brought over by a group of demonic cultivators.

Luo Yuebai smiled playfully, “And what about these people? Are they also going to be spared?”

Su Jingzhen’s gaze fell upon Chen Chong and several masters from Cuiliu School.

At this time, these people’s eyes were filled with terror.

As soon as they saw Su Jingzhen, they immediately began to beg for mercy: “Friend Su, you’re a magnanimous person, please spare our lives and treat us like a trivial matter.”

“Friend Su, Chen Chong had some misunderstandings with you earlier, and Cuiliu School is willing to surrender. Please spare our lives, Friend Su.”

“……”

Under the shadow of death, the things they had pursued earlier had become insignificant.

Chen Chong’s support was already lying on the ground with a tragic death, and his own life and death only depended on Su Jingzhe’s thoughts.

What else was there to hold onto?

However, Su Jingzhen’s mouth curled into a cold smile.

He, Su Jingzhen, would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, nor would he be a benevolent saint.

If not for Shuang Jiang’s existence, Su Jingzhen might have already been killed by Chen Chong’s arrangements.

He didn’t seek trouble, but he wouldn’t let go of his grudges so easily.

“These few people, Friend Luo, I’m sorry to trouble you. ”

This sentence was almost equivalent to issuing a death sentence to Chen Chong and the others.

At this point, Su Jingzhen had already given up, since he was already labeled as a demonic cultivator anyway.

He might as well enjoy the convenience brought by this label.

Luo Yuebai smiled and gave a nod to the demonic cultivators.

Chen Chong and the others were immediately taken away, awaiting their inevitable fate.

“Su Jingzhen, I’ll haunt you even in death!”

“Su Jingzhen, I’ll be waiting for you below, and you’ll definitely meet a bad end!”

“……”

Their pleas for mercy were in vain, and what followed was a barrage of curses.

Su Jingzhen was helpless, but had he done anything wrong from the start?

It seemed not!

However, he no longer cared.

At this time, his gaze turned back to Luo Yuebai, his expression becoming serious.

“Friend Luo, you must be very clear about the situation on Clear Wind Mountain. I want to know what’s going on there. Can you help me find someone?”
