CHAPTER 699: CHAPTER 555

"Kill without mercy!"

Lin Feng’s voice was ice-cold and bone-chilling, void of any emotion, sending shivers down the spines of Yun Shan, Yao Meng, and the others, freezing them to their cores.

"Lin Feng, no, we were forced into this!" Yun Shan quickly shouted out loud.

The once-mighty Sect Leader of Heavenly Sword Sect now had no choice but to plead for mercy before Lin Feng.

He was indeed forced, without the oppression from Blood Luo Hall, he would have never attacked the Imperial Palace.

"That’s right! Lin Feng, Blood Luo Hall is too powerful; anyone who refuses to submit faces death, we were forced into this situation with no choice!"

"We really had no options!"

"Lin Feng, please spare us!"

...

Martial Artists from Heavenly Sword Sect and Tianyuan Sect begged for mercy in succession; Lin Feng’s strength filled their hearts with horror— not even the Earth Martial Master Third Layer Elder Blood Yu could resist him, let alone them!

Lin Feng’s face remained expressionless, his cold gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Spare them?

Was it that easy?

If it weren’t for his timely return, the Lin Family and the members of Heavenly Vault Sect would have probably been slaughtered by these people!

"Lin Feng, their situation is understandable!"

At this moment, Qing Pingzi spoke up as well. He used to have a good personal relationship with Yun Shan and understood the difficulties faced by him and the others.

Lin Feng frowned slightly upon hearing this. He hadn’t expected Qing Pingzi to plead for these people.

"Lin Feng, we actually showed mercy before!"

Sect Master Yao Meng from Tianyuan Sect said, "When we attacked the Imperial Palace’s Guardian Array, many of us did not use all our strength. Otherwise, the Guardian Array wouldn’t have lasted even a quarter of an hour!"

Lin Feng still wore an expressionless face. Regardless of whether these people had shown mercy before, or if they were forced into this situation, the fact that they had just attempted to kill the people from Lin Family and Heavenly Vault Sect couldn’t be changed.

He could not forgive them for this!

Cultivation energy of Vigorous Origin began to condense in Lin Feng’s hand as he prepared to make a move.

Seeing this, the crowd from Heavenly Sword Sect and Tianyuan Sect trembled, ready to flee at any moment.

"Lin Feng, maybe don’t kill them?"

Li Feng said solemnly, "Wouldn’t it be better to keep them for your own use?"

"For my use?"

Lin Feng pondered briefly upon hearing this and then let out a reluctant sigh. Although these people didn’t seem very useful to him, keeping their lives for the moment could do no harm.

Moreover, with Qing Pingzi and Li Feng speaking out, he couldn’t just ignore their pleas.

However, he did not fully trust these people, nor could he let them off so easily.

"You two, come here!" Lin Feng glanced at Yun Shan and Yao Meng, ordering coldly.

Yun Shan and Yao Meng trembled but did not dare to refuse, hurriedly flying to Lin Feng’s presence.

"Don’t resist!"

Lin Feng spoke indifferently, then swiftly pointed his finger, touching the foreheads of both men with a point each.

Two minute beams of Finger Light pierced into the foreheads of the two men and quickly sunk into their skulls.

Both Yun Shan and Yao Meng’s bodies shook, and they immediately felt a fine thread of Sword Qi in their minds.

This Sword Qi contained Lin Feng’s will; should Lin Feng wish it, he could immediately pierce their sea of consciousness and end their lives.

Bitterness spread across the faces of Yun Shan and Yao Meng. Their lives were now completely in Lin Feng’s hands, he could take them at any moment.

Of course, Lin Feng wouldn’t let them go easily; at the very least, he needed to have complete control over them.

Lin Feng then said to the crowd, "All of you, hand over all your Storage Rings and Storage Bags."

The crowd shook upon hearing this, corners of their mouths twitching. Even with his powerful cultivation, Lin Feng still coveted the wealth they carried!

However, they did not dare to resist, and everyone, including Yun Shan and Yao Meng, obediently handed over their Storage Rings and Storage Bags.

Several hundred Storage Rings and a batch of Storage Bags, all were collected by Lin Feng.

"Alright, you may go now."

Lin Feng gestured them away, and as the crowd sighed in relief and prepared to depart, Lin Feng’s voice rang out again.

"Oh, and when you get back, immediately bring over the treasures from your Sect’s Treasure Vault!"

"Ah!"

The crowd’s faces showed utter confusion, even demanding the Sect’s Treasure Vault?

Without the Treasure Vault, how could they continue their cultivation?

But, as reluctant as they were, they dared not refuse at this time and could only nod in agreement.

Following that, Yun Shan and Yao Meng no longer dared to linger, leading the hundreds of experts to leave swiftly.

"Lin Feng, let’s sit down in the palace!" Emperor Huben said to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded and followed Emperor Huben into a side hall within the palace.

Outside the Imperial Palace, the onlookers who had seen the figures of Lin Feng and the others disappear came back to their senses one by one.

How powerful!

Slaughtering the warriors of Blood Luo Hall as easily as eating and drinking!

What kind of bloody storm will the monstrous genius Lin Feng stir up in Hongyu this time?

As the crowd dispersed, the news of Lin Feng’s return spread rapidly throughout Hu Ben Country.

Inside the grand hall.

Lin Feng and Emperor Huben, Luo Qianfan, and the others faced each other across the table.

Only a few were present in the grand hall, including Lin Hong, Qing Pingzi, Elder Wei, Li Feng, and a few others close to Lin Feng, as well as several experts from the Royal Family.

"What’s the current situation in Hongyu?" Lin Feng glanced at the crowd, asking gravely.

"At present, all thirty-six countries of Hongyu have been completely controlled by Blood Luo Hall, almost all forces have submitted to them, those who didn’t have been annihilated," Emperor Huben sighed.

Lin Feng’s brows furrowed subtly, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked, "What about the six major powers from before?"

Lin Feng was referring to the Tianhong Empire Royal Family and other former Overlord Level powers of Hongyu, such as Fire Cloud Mountain.
