"Stand down. Leave this to me!" Gonggong bellowed.
"Yes!" the Witch Clan members roared in response.
Though the Witch Clan was renowned for its inscrutability, no amount of mystery could compare to Wei Taizhong's ferocity. Blood needles shot out, leaving no corpses intact, harvesting the lives of Witch Clan members in batches.
And this was with Gonggong holding him back. If he hadn't, this entire crowd of Witch Clan members wouldn't have been enough for him to kill!
"Whoosh!" The Witch Clan members quickly retreated.
Gonggong strode forward. The might of an Ancestral Shaman erupted with a thunderous boom.
An aura as mighty as a mountain crashed down upon Wei Taizhong.
"Boom!"
The earth around Wei Taizhong abruptly sank.
Amid the shaking ground, Wei Taizhong steadied himself and looked toward Gonggong with a cold gleam in his eyes.
"Your internal organs are shattered. You're already at the end of your rope. Stop resisting! Join the Great River Sacred Court, and I'll guarantee your safety," Gonggong said solemnly.
"Ptui!"
Wei Taizhong spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.
Gonggong raised an eyebrow. But at that moment, Wei Taizhong was already within his force field, and the Witch Clan had already retreated. Gonggong's force field was like a barrier, isolating the inside from the outside. There was no possibility of escape now.
"Do you know who I am?" Wei Taizhong suddenly sneered.
"Hm?" Gonggong narrowed his eyes.
"Join the Great River Sacred Court? I'm an official of the Great Zheng Heavenly Court. Why would I need to join yours?" Wei Taizhong refused to yield in the slightest.
"The Great Zheng Heavenly Court?" Gonggong raised an eyebrow.
"You dare kill me today? The Heavenly Emperor will exterminate your entire Witch Clan, leaving not a single survivor. Do you believe that?" Wei Taizhong said
