Blood as the guide, curse them to death!

Chapter 501: Blood as the guide, curse them to death! In the square.

Hundreds of descendants of the Eastern Ridge royal family and Great Priest Wu Huo's clan knelt on the ground like lambs awaiting slaughter, forced down by the swords and sabers of the Yang Province soldiers.

Some glared furiously, some sobbed quietly, and others looked ashen, with nothing but despair left in their eyes.

Among these people.

There was also someone who had once enjoyed indescribable prestige in Eastern Ridge.

The Great Prince, Xiong Ju.

His cultivation had now been crippled.

His eyes were vacant, his face pale.

He was an entirely different person from the high-spirited prince who had arrived at Yun Tian Pass wielding the Country Lord's Golden Scepter.

At some point, Jiang Dao had stepped outside.

He gazed calmly and indifferently at these lambs awaiting slaughter.

"Execute them all. Collect their heart's blood," he ordered coldly.

"Yes, Lord Attendant!"

The soldiers in the square roared their assent, bloodthirsty savagery flashing in their eyes. They had long since run out of patience.

"No! You can't kill me! I'm a royal descendant! My ancestor is the Great Priest of Eastern Ridge!"

Someone howled in despair.

"Please... I'm willing to surrender! I'll serve you like an ox or a horse! Don't kill me!"

"Kill us, then! Kill us! One day, the Country Lord and the Great Priest will avenge us!"

"Divine fire never dies! The Divine Mansion Realm is undying!"

Pleas and curses rang throughout the square.

But the soldiers acted as though they heard nothing. Expressionlessly, they drove their sharp steel sabers into the prisoners' chests as though slaughtering pigs, then twisted viciously.

Listening to the blades piercing flesh and the screams that followed, Xiong Ju felt his scalp prickle.

"Heh heh, Great Prince, don't be afraid.
