Episode 12 – The Descent of the Gods Chapter 34 – Carrying the Tripod

Linley’s sudden going out also caused a group of people in the Dragonblood Castle to feel a bit apprehensive in their hearts.

“Father, eldest uncle, he’s going out now, could he be going to look?” Sydney said softly.

Although Sini didn’t finish his sentence, the group of people in the hall understood that they also suspected that a dead city had appeared on a large scale in the Luo’ao Empire. The murderer behind it was a god-ranked powerhouse, and what would be the outcome if Linley went up against this god-ranked powerhouse? “Brother’s temperament, I know it well.”

Walden’s brows furrowed, “Although he’s unwilling to meddle. But if it’s his responsibility, he’ll definitely step in.”

Right. Linley’s responsibility! Everyone in the hall. Including Delia, who nodded slightly.

Nowadays, the Yulan Continent’s human earthly god-level powerhouses. Aside from those who had gone to the Graveyard of the Gods, only Linley and Desiree remained. Looking at the Yulan Continent. Linley, Desiree, and the two of them were the two peak God-level powerhouses of this human society.

For Linley and Desiree. The Magnolia Continent was their roots! Their hometown! Otherworldly god-level powerhouses descended upon their hometown, slaughtering humans indiscriminately.

At this time, as God-level powerhouses, Linley and Desiree must also step forward, if even the two of them were to protect themselves. Turtle up. Then, the humans of the Yulan Continent nowadays were still not at the mercy of those strong people who had escaped from the Gobada Plane and were killing them wantonly? “At this time, we can only rely on Lord Linley. and Lord Desiree.”

Sydney whispered in front of the god level powerhouses. Even Saint realm powerhouses must bow their heads, and only Linley and Desiree, who were also at the divine level, were capable of resisting. Only then would they have the ability to resist.

Inside the small, quiet mountain village where Desiree lived.

Linley’s sudden arrival. Naturally, Desiree and his group received a warm welcome, and Reno hadn’t seen Linley for a while and wanted to have a good chat, only this time. Linley had something important to do. The others didn’t dare to interrupt. They just let Linley and Desiree talk carefully.

Inside the cave in the belly of the mountain.

Spring water tinkled. Linley and Desiree were sitting opposite each other.

The two of them were the two strongest people on the human side of the Yulan Continent realm today.

“What!” Desiree stood up violently, and Linley had just opened his mouth. It had stunned Desiree.

Linley’s face was stony as he nodded, “Yes, many of the residents of cities throughout the Luo Ao Empire were killed cleanly, the Dead City Land thing. You should know. It also happened in my Baruch Empire, but this time. There are too many cities. This short period of time. The dead population has reached 100 million!” Desiree’s eyes were filled with shock: “This one hundred million people, just letting people kill them one by one, how long would it take to kill them?” One hundred million! It was easy to say. A town usually only had around ten thousand people. It was also the equivalent of ten thousand towns.

“Linley. What do you think should be done?” Desiree looked towards Linley.

Linley stood up. It was as if there were flames burning in his eyes. His voice couldn’t help but rise to a high pitch, “What to do? Desiree, no matter what the several empires of our Yulan Continent do to each other, that’s a war in our Yulan Continent realm! It’s an internal matter!” “The Yulan Continent is our roots! I will absolutely not allow it. Those Otherworldly God-level powerhouses are going on a killing spree here in our place, what are they treating our place as? A slaughterhouse?” Linley’s heart was filled with rage.

Linley stared at Desiree: “Desiree, are you prepared to cower?” Desiree’s gaze also blazed, “Linley, what do you call this? Now that O’Brien and the few of them have gone to the Graveyard of the Gods, the human society of the Yulan Continent. It’s just us two God-level powerhouses at this point. You think I’ll back down?” “One hundred million slaughtered now, how many humans will be slaughtered next time. One hundred million, one billion? The entire Yulan Continent only has a population of billions. I’m afraid that within a few decades, the entire Yulan Continent will become unoccupied.”

Desiree said in a proper voice. “Linley, it’s not the case that the longer you live, the better. There are some things that one must should stand up for.”

“The Yulan Continent is my roots, so I will naturally stand up.”

Desiree spoke firmly.

A small smile appeared on Linley’s face as well. Desiree smiled as well.

The two great powerhouses understood each other’s hearts at this moment.

Death. In fact, it is not terrible. What was terrifying was dying like a weed. There is no value.

Cultivating the path of elemental laws and being able to step into the divine realm. Linley, Desiree, and the others were extremely determined. Determining one thing. Even if they died, they would do it. If a person, reduced to the point where even their hometown had become the other side’s slaughterhouse, was indifferent, then life was worse than death.

The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the silhouettes of the escapees on the desolate and frightening road, tattered clothes, thin and dirty faces, a pair of eyes with fear and a desire for the future, all of them worked hard to advance towards the north.

High in the sky.

Side by side, flying at breakneck speeds, Linley and Desiree came to a sudden halt. Right now, Linley and the others had entered the border of the Luo Ao Empire.

“Let’s go down and take a look. Ask these escapees. Perhaps it’s better to truly understand the situation.”

Desiree said. Ever since they had flown into the Luo Ao Empire’s borders. Linley and Desiree hadn’t had a single smile on their faces, and both of their expressions were grave.

At the moment, the Luo Ao Empire. It was too chaotic.

When the wind picked up and stopped, Linley and Desiree appeared in the weeds beside the desolate and frightening road, and the two of them walked from the weeds to the road, which was an avenue. There were a lot of people fleeing. There weren’t many people who would care about Linley and Desiree.

“How much have they, in fact, suffered.”

Desiree sighed in a low voice as she looked at the dark, fearful eyes of each of the fleeing people.

Linley also felt something in his heart.

Linley’s gaze suddenly fell on a tall young man in the distance, who had a determined gaze and was carrying a pale, silver-haired old woman behind him. Of the hundreds of people Linley had seen. It was only this youth whose temperament was slightly more extraordinary, and Linley could tell at a glance. That youth was still a rank five warrior.

Linley immediately walked over. Desiree followed suit.

The youth saw Linley and Desiree walk over. Immediately, he looked at Linley and the others warily, “Two lords, I wonder about you?” This tall youth was somewhat knowledgeable. He could sense that the two people in front of him were not ordinary people.

“This brother, I’d like to ask what happened. Making you guys flee?” Linley’s attitude was gentle.

The tall youth heard these words. Instead, he was a little startled: “A large number of our Luo Ao Empire’s land inhabitants were slaughtered off, two lords. This is something that every person who fled knows, right? You guys are asking me?” “I also know that a lot of residents were massacred, and there are still a lot of them, I’m just puzzled. It shouldn’t be possible for so many residents to be massacred in a day or two, so why, when so many people died, did you all flee?” Linley had always been puzzled by this.

A hundred million people.

A Saint realm, even if they killed a few hundred thousand a day, it would still take months. The Dead City incident. The spread should have been quick. How could it be allowed to be slaughtered for 100 million before causing a widespread flight? When he first asked Sydney about it, it was just that Sydney and the others hadn’t had time to investigate it in depth.

When this tall youth heard this, his face couldn’t help but show a bitter smile, “Both of you adults, if you ask the general public. I’m afraid I really don’t know.”

Saying that. The tall youth also let out a long sigh, and Linley and Desiree’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

Clearly, this tall youth knew some secrets.

“Please also tell us.”

Desley also spoke.

How could the tall youth know that the two people in front of him were two great god-level powerhouses? He was helpless, and there was also a trace of pain in his eyes as he said, “This matter is not considered a major secret. Many of us from the Barrow Legion know about it.”

The Barrow Legion? Cultivators like Linley, Desiree, and the rest of them. How would they pay attention to an imperial legion? “About three months ago, our Barrow Legion had a total of three hundred thousand men and ten divisions, and our legion was divided into many parts according to brigade. All of them were deployed to various transportation routes in the south of the empire, and the orders we received were. No one is allowed to pass through the areas we are stationed in, and anyone who tries to pass through. All will be killed.”

Linley and Desiree’s hearts were startled.

They somewhat understood.

Why. After slaughtering 100 million people. Only then did it cause a riot.

“We didn’t understand at first either. Though there were times when we encountered someone who tried to pass through the area we were guarding, and that person also said something about a dead city. But we’re soldiers, carrying out military orders comes first. When he presumptuously tried to pass through, we killed him on the spot.”

“Killing two at first, we didn’t care. But later on, there was a time about our great captain, that presumptuous attempt to escape was actually the brother of our great captain’s land. We didn’t kill him immediately because of the captain. But I didn’t expect that person to tell us that a large number of people in the southern part of the empire had been slaughtered. Our captain’s hometown. Only his brother survived. His brother also dodged a bullet by going hunting in the mountains that day.”

This tall youth said. His voice was still trembling.

“By that day, we had been guarding the main road for more than two whole months.”

The tall youth said bitterly, “At that time, our entire brigade land was dumbfounded. The brigade leader immediately sent people. First went to the inner city to investigate. The result of this is that you all know about it.”

The tall youth shook his head and said, “We were also going to inform the other brigades, but then we realized. It wasn’t our brigade that first discovered this secret. It wasn’t our brigade, but another brigade.”

It dawned on Linley and Desiree in their hearts.

Saint realms massacred cities with spiritual coverage and generally didn’t escape any of them. The ones who were able to get away with it were generally …… for example. Night sleepers in the wild outsiders. These night stay in the field. Waiting for them to feel the city. Will then discover this thing.

Therefore, the people who escaped this are very few.

And there are many passages to escape to other places, so many brigades of one legion. Divided to guard the various major passages, I’m afraid that each major passage would at most encounter only two or three survivors, but most of these survivors were killed outright.

After all. Obeying military orders was number one.

“Knowing all this, all the brothers of our legion turned against us, fathers and brothers, wives and children all died. Everyone back home is dead, damn it, what are those brothers of ours still doing as soldiers?” This tall youth was also furious, “Compared to those brothers of mine. I’m a bit luckier, my hometown is not in the south. It’s only my relatives who escaped this calamity.”

This tall youth looked back at the old woman on his back, and a hint of concern appeared on his face.

“Thank you.”

Linley said sincerely.

At this moment, chills ran through Linley and Desiree’s hearts. They both surmised the course of events.

A large number of cities had been massacred. It was feared that there were still Saint realm powerhouses flying in the skies outside the city. Killing some of the survivors. Survivors who could truly escape to the main road where the military degree was stationed. It’s too rare, but this kind of thing. Even so, it was impossible to hide it forever.

“Listening to this youth’s words. This massacre seems to have been going on for more than two months.”

Linley judged up in his mind.

The two of them, Linley and Desiree, looked at each other. The duo then quietly walked to the weeds beside the road, and then. The duo’s figures flashed to the far side of the sky. They flew towards the south at great speed. Linley and Desiree both had a goal in mind.

“Now. First, we’ll go find the Saint realm powerhouses that are in the territory of the Luo Ao Empire.”

Linley was certain. This kind of big thing. A Saint realm powerhouse in the territory of the Luo Ao Empire would definitely know about it.

Even this sort of thing should have been done by the Holy Realm.

After all, for a god-level powerhouse to slaughter cities one by one, Linley also estimated that god-level powerhouses wouldn’t do it, god-level powerhouses, should be controlling and ordering some Sanctuary Domain powerhouses to do these things, and now what to do. Now to do. It is from the holy realm of the strong. Find out some information about that god-level powerhouse.

Know your enemy and know yourself. Only then can we fight a hundred battles without danger.
