Sky Crocodile: Annihilating the Clear Sky Sect, Annihilating an Empty Void

Although his status as a brother-in-law was useless in the Clear Sky Sect, it was a major liability in Spirit Hall. If they ever decided to purge internal traitors and saw a remnant of the former Clear Sky Sect running around, they would likely just cut him down on the spot.

Hiss— The more Bai He thought about it, the more wrong it felt. Rather than dying a senseless death at Spirit Hall, he might as well die a glorious death for the Clear Sky Sect right now; at least then, his death wouldn't be pathetic.

A tree lives for its bark, just as a man lives for his face!

With that thought, Bai He's gaze turned resolute as he looked at Qian Xunqian and said, "Our Speed Clan will absolutely not surrender!"

Qian Xunqian saw through Bai He's thoughts at a glance and said, "I can understand why Clan Leader Bai doesn't want to join Spirit Hall. You're afraid of being ostracized by Spirit Hall because of your marital ties to the Clear Sky Sect, aren't you?"

Bai He remained silent.

"Then this Seat guarantees you: as long as I am in power, as long as your Speed Clan does nothing to harm Spirit Hall and nothing against morality, I will ensure your standing within Spirit Hall!"

"Your Speed Clan's martial soul, the Sharp-Tailed Swift, possesses extreme speed and excels at reconnaissance and intelligence gathering. I'll be blunt: Spirit Hall has a special need for talents like you! You need not worry about being overlooked after joining Spirit Hall!"

"Furthermore, it is your family that has marital ties to that old man Tang Zhen, not the other clansmen. For the sake of your own family's interests, are you going to drag the entire Speed Clan to their graves?!"

These three points struck directly at the heart of the matter, leaving Bai He speechless and causing the Speed Clan to stir, with some even preparing to defect on their own.

That's right! It was only Bai He's family that had a good relationship with Tang Zhen; why should the rest of the clan die with them?

You get to play the hero, and we get to be the ones sent to die? Where is the sense in that?

Bai He's face turned awkward, as if he had eaten a bitter melon. After weighing the options repeatedly—

I surrender!

After all, if he surrendered, he would only face death in the future; if he didn't, he would be killed by his own clansmen right now.

Since he didn't even have the chance to die in service to the Clear Sky Sect, he could only choose to survive.

Sigh, brother-in-law, it's not that I want to betray you! It's this chaotic world that forces me to!

"Your Majesty! After hearing your words, I have been enlightened. From this day forward, the Speed Clan also decides to submit to Spirit Hall!"

Sky Crocodile was stunned, looking blankly at his little niece beside him. Didn't we agree that we were here to annihilate the Clear Sky Sect?

What is this? It turns out that bringing a level 98 Super Douluo along was just to read a declaration of war!

Qianjun, Xiangmo, and Guangling thought: Brother Sky Crocodile, at least you moved your mouth; we brothers have just been standing here like statues, doing absolutely nothing.

The accompanying Spirit Hall soul master legion felt only two things:

1. The Pope is awesome.

2. His Excellency Sky Crocodile has a very loud voice.

Titan was now completely isolated, with only a dozen or so outer disciples of the Strength Clan remaining who were still loyal to the Clear Sky Sect.

It was laughable; even the outer disciples who possessed the Clear Sky Hammer had surrendered. Those dozen or so who remained loyal were of different martial souls—likely orphans raised by the Clear Sky Sect—and it was only out of a sense of gratitude for their upbringing that they stood until the end.

The wind reveals the strength of the grass, and adversity reveals true feelings!

"Strength Clan, what about you? The other three elemental clans have already submitted to Spirit Hall. Do you intend to resist stubbornly?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo spoke, his androgynous voice making the members of the Strength Clan shudder.

Titan stood out firmly and said, "This old servant will be loyal to my master for the rest of his life! I will never betray him!"

"What about the rest of you? Members of the Strength Clan, do you intend to die along with your clan leader?"

Many members of the Strength Clan hesitated and began to whisper among themselves.

In terms of ranking, the Break Clan was the strongest, the Defense Clan and Strength Clan were about equal, and the Speed Clan was the weakest.

If even the Speed Clan could be highly valued, what about the Strength Clan?

The members of the Strength Clan began to weigh and evaluate their options.

To be honest, they had been indoctrinated with servile thinking and loyalty since childhood, but that didn't mean they were idiots.

"If the sovereign treats his subjects like dirt, the subjects will treat the sovereign like an enemy." Everyone understood this simple truth. It was Tang Hao and the Clear Sky Sect who had abandoned them!

If even one person from Tang Hao or the Clear Sky Sect had shown up, the Strength Clan would have been willing to fight to the death, with the entire clan perishing right here.

But reality was cruel.

Their spiritual pillar had run away. The members of the Strength Clan were now lost, and their fear of death gradually overcame their loyalty.

How they fantasized that a Clear Sky Douluo, clad in golden armor and stepping on five-colored auspicious clouds, would come to save them and fight side-by-side with them!

But what happened? They waited and waited, and by the time the other three clans had surrendered, that man still hadn't appeared.

The prolonged suppression became too much for some members of the Strength Clan. One member rushed out of the ranks and shouted:

"I surrender! I surrender! Don't kill me!"

Qian Xunqian looked around her and felt embarrassed; she hadn't brought any agility-type Title Douluo, as she had sent Elder Gui to post the notices.

However, one of the agility-type Soul Douluos who had just surrendered would suffice.

"Elder Bai He, your speed is fast. Go and receive that friend."

Bai He hesitated upon hearing the order, primarily because he could not believe that the decisive Pope would actually ask him to save a member of the Strength Clan.

However, he only wavered for two seconds before immediately manifesting his Avatar and flying over.

Bai He's speed remained unparalleled, and he managed to snatch the person away just before Titan could finish him off.

Titan was furious, stomping with rage as he glared at all his clansmen and cursed loudly:

"Who dares to surrender in private? I am watching you all like a hawk right now! If one steps out, I will crush them to death!"

"I don't like that old fellow; his servility is too heavy. What I want is equality and wholesome loyalty! Someone come, which Elder is willing to take this man down?"

Qian Xunqian employed "Provocation."

It would have been fine if she hadn't provoked them, but once she did, every powerhouse above the Soul Douluo level boiled over, frantically clamoring for battle.

"Sister Pope, let your little brother fire an arrow from afar; he will perish on the spot!"

Guangling Douluo let out a youthful, high-pitched voice that gave Qian Xunqian a headache.

"My cultivation is the highest! Let me go!" Golden Crocodile Douluo said excitedly.

Qianjun and Jiangmo Douluo both stepped forward, urgently requesting to fight.

Qian Xunqian was helpless; her subordinates were too enthusiastic, and there was nothing she could do about it.

"I only want that old fellow, preferably captured alive. It is best not to harm the other members of the Strength Clan. Elders, you may all go together!"

Before her voice had even faded, eight Title Douluos and fifty-three Soul Douluos vanished in an instant, all charging toward Titan in unison.

Golden Crocodile Douluo let out a roar, blasting everyone in the Strength Clan aside, save for Titan.

Xiongshi Douluo followed closely, spitting out flames as a raging fire drew a large circle around Titan, leaving space only for their Spirit Hall members and a shivering Great Strength Gorilla.

The other members of the Strength Clan were cut off by the flames and could not get in at all.

Titan: Children, facing eight Title Douluos and fifty-three Soul Douluos, do you think I can win?

The sixty-one of them didn't even need to manifest their spirits; each landed a single punch, beating Titan until he was black and blue, sealing his soul power, and dragging him back to their ranks bound hand and foot.
