The Immortal I Am Shows No Mercy

The Capital Garrison

They were stationed in the suburbs of the Capital to defend the nation, and could also be sent out to fight.

The Capital Garrison was further divided into the Five Armies Battalion and the Divine Pivot Battalion.

Over the Eldest Princess has fought in numerous battles, achieving unparalleled feats, and the Capital Garrison has been brought under her control.

But human nature is complex.

Loyalty is never static.

Precious, yet fragile.

High positions and generous salaries may shake it, but swords and axes can crush it.

The deputy commander of the Divine Pivot Battalion was like that.

He could not resist the Emperor 'His Majesty personal promise of being ennobled and appointed to a high-ranking position, enjoying wealth and honor.

So he led the Divine Pivot Battalion back to the emperor's command.

This isn't called surrendering or betraying; it's called abandoning the enemy and returning to the right path.

The Capital Garrison was originally His Majesty's royal army; it was the Eldest Princess who was the rebel and the traitor.

The Divine Pivot Battalion had many loyal followers of the Eldest Princess, but he had already dealt with them according to the law.

Now he and the Divine Pivot Battalion are both the emperor's men.

His Majesty's decree is the supreme command.

All of His Majesty's enemies are their enemies, even if the opponent is an Immortal.

The Five Armies Battalions, having quelled the rebellion, have not yet returned.

The Divine Pivot Battalion was the most powerful armed force in the entire Capital.

Immortals are very strong.

The thousand-strong Thunderclap Battalion of Zhenning Prefecture could be wiped out with a flick of the wrist.

But his Divine Pivot Battalion had a full ten thousand men, strong and well-equipped, and seasoned veterans.

Your His Majesty is right.

That's not Immortals and Gods or immortal, it's a demon.

They were not killing immortals and slaughtering gods, but slaying demons and monsters.

Killing immortals and slaughtering gods is a crime, but slaying demons and monsters is a meritorious deed.

Once the demon on Jade Spring Mountain is vanquished, His Majesty can seize the opportunity to take down the Eldest Princess, restore order, and regain control of the court.

And he was the greatest contributor to this battle.

They were granted titles and honors, and their names were recorded in history.

Faced with such overwhelming temptation, he simply couldn't resist; I believe no one in the world could resist it.

That earth-shattering explosion was arranged by His Majesty.

It seems we've succeeded.

No one could remain unharmed under such terrifying power; even if Immortal didn't perish, they would certainly be severely injured.

"Fame and fortune are on the mountain, wealth and glory are right before our eyes! Brothers, charge!"

With the commander's order,

Ten thousand soldiers of the Divine Pivot Battalion surged toward Jade Spring Mountain like locusts.

But when they were halfway there, they suddenly realized something was wrong.

It is late at night.

But isn't the sky above a little too bright?

Then all the soldiers looked up.

Then they saw a clear and ethereal light sword floating in the sky above Jade Spring Mountain.

A pale blue sword light descended from the sky, spreading in all directions.

It enveloped the entire Jade Spring Mountain.

"It's an illusion! This is all an illusion cast by demons. Never mind it, charge forward and kill the demons, and this illusion will fall apart on its own."

The lieutenant roared,

This brought the wavering morale of the troops back to normal.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers

He gripped his weapon tightly again, strengthened his resolve, and charged toward the mountainside.

But whether it was their imagination or not, the weapons in their hands seemed much heavier than usual, and their feet felt as if they were stepping into a pool of water, requiring more effort with each step.

Halfway up the mountain,

The ruins of the Temporary Palace Villas, reduced to rubble, lay before us.

Demons are inside.

Their wealth and glory are also included.

Both the generals and the soldiers were incredibly excited, as if stepping into those ruins would grant them unparalleled wealth and glory.

But when they actually stepped into those ruins...

After seeing that celestial figure standing proudly amidst the flames and smoke,

Their steps suddenly stopped again.

The celestial figure stood Jingjing in place.

But the halo behind his head, as bright as the moon, the flowing, ethereal robes he wore, and that aura of cold purity and unparalleled nobility—all these were striking.

Everything is telling everyone,

He is Immortal.

A true Immortals and Gods can only be worshipped and not profaned.

"Don't fall for it, brothers, don't be fooled! This is just a smokescreen, Immortal disguised as an immortal to deceive us."

The vice-president continued shouting loudly.

"Once this demon is killed, the illusion will fail, and the demon will reveal its hideous and terrifying true form."

The deputy general who walked in also panicked.

Because at this moment, the Immortal before them showed absolutely no signs of being seriously injured by the explosion.

Even the hem of the immortal robe wasn't dirty.

But he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue the lie, not only to the ten thousand soldiers of the Divine Pivot Battalion, but also to tell himself.

He had no way out.

To succeed or to die trying.

Even if there was a sheer cliff in front of him, he could only close his eyes and jump.

He's gambling.

The gambling Immortal was indeed injured; he was merely using illusions to maintain his precarious state, hoping to confuse them and force them to retreat.

"Charge! All of you, charge! What are you standing there for? Don't you want to be promoted, have your wives and children granted titles and honors? Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows!"

Seeing the soldiers around him shrinking back and hesitating, the deputy general roared fiercely with a ferocious expression.

If we back down at this point,

The consequences he will face after that are simply unimaginable.

Hearing the general's fierce roar, although most soldiers still wore fear and struggle on their faces, many of his confidants chose to carry out the order.

Draw the bow, nock the arrow, and prepare to fire.

In an instant,

Hundreds of arrows were released from the bow.

All the soldiers were watching these arrows, for these hundreds of arrows being shot represented whether mortal weapons could truly harm the gods.

Unfortunately, the result disappointed them.

Wrong,

It is despair.

The arrow was very fast, but once it reached the area enveloped in the radiance surrounding the Immortal,

It was like hitting an invisible wall.

Hundreds of arrows shattered and broke, falling to the ground.

The lieutenant swallowed hard, feeling a chill run down his spine and his legs go weak.

But before he could speak again,

Then they saw the celestial figure, whose features and expression were obscured, slowly raise its right hand.

Buzz--

A chilling and majestic Sword Intent suddenly erupted from the Immortal's body.

An invisible Sword Intent spread, instantly enveloping the entire ruins of the Temporary Palace Villa.

Wisps of ethereal sword light appeared around the Immortal, condensing into hundreds of Azure sword lights, radiating a dazzling and sharp, chilling Sword Qi.

This scene left the deputy general completely dumbfounded.

Not just him,

All the soldiers who rushed up the mountainside and stepped into the ruins were dumbfounded.

If that was just a demon's illusion, transforming into the appearance of Immortal...

But is this overwhelming aura that permeates all directions, this sharp and piercing Sword Intent, also just an illusion?

Snap--

Suddenly, a soldier dropped his weapon.

Along with the weapon, his knees also slammed heavily onto the rubble.

The greed and fanaticism for official advancement were gone from his eyes; all that remained was awe and fear of the Immortals and Gods and immortals.

If someone takes the lead, they can inspire a hundred people, a thousand people.

As a result, more and more soldiers laid down their weapons and knelt on the ground.

The lieutenant also wanted to kneel.

But he knew very well that even if he knelt down, he would still meet a terrible end.

So he didn't kneel.

He turned and ran away.

The Immortal didn't look at him, or rather, the Immortal didn't look at anyone else on the field.

Will laying down one's weapons guarantee forgiveness?

Can kneeling and admitting wrongdoing guarantee forgiveness?

Perhaps other compassionate gods and Buddhas in the world are like this.

But that doesn't mean Gao Yunyi would do that.

In front of him,

Laying down the butcher's knife doesn't instantly make one a Buddha.

It will only turn to ashes and leave no trace.

"Go."

Gao Yunyi's lips parted slightly, his cold voice devoid of any emotion.
