Qin State's Life-or-Death Crisis, the Demonic Flame Sect Attacks
"You... you all..."
Wei Mingyuan watched as the fierce aura between Hua Jincheng, Lin Chengze, and the others grew increasingly intense.
A chilling killing intent flashed undisguisedly in his eyes, and his heart sank.
He no longer harbored any illusions, knowing that these people were not joking.
If he dared to resist, he would only face swift and decisive suppression, and might even be killed on the spot.
His expression changed several times, his mood shifting unpredictably. His hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, then he let them loosen in despair.
Although she harbored rebellious thoughts and even considered taking the opportunity to escape the Heavenly Devil Sect,
But then I thought, with my current cultivation level, fighting against Hua Jincheng and the others would be like throwing an egg against a rock.
In the end, it only adds to their humiliation, and they cannot escape being suppressed or dying.
Thinking of this, Wei Mingyuan slowly loosened his clenched fists, a deep bitterness appearing on his face:
"Sect Master, please proceed. I have released my Primordial Spirit; you may set up your restrictions as you see fit."
"Hmm. I need to place a restriction on your Primordial Spirit. From now on, without orders, you are not allowed to leave this place even a step."
Hua Jincheng's fingers flew, forming profound hand Method Formula, and spiritual energy surged and gathered around him, condensing into a mysterious pattern composed of Great Dao Runes in front of him.
As the pattern rotated, it emitted a suppressive pressure that could crush the soul, and then, like a shooting star, it landed precisely on Wei Mingyuan's Primordial Spirit.
"Buzz!"
The moment the restriction entered his body, Wei Mingyuan felt a sharp pain in his Primordial Spirit, as an invisible shackle firmly bound his soul.
The last glimmer of hope in his eyes was extinguished, replaced by despair, and his heart was on the verge of collapse.
Just moments ago, he was a high-ranking elder of the Heavenly Devil Sect, wielding power and enjoying immense prestige. In the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner at the mercy of others.
"It's all that damn Fairness System's fault!"
Wei Mingyuan roared madly in his heart, his hatred reaching its peak, "If it weren't for this evil thing, how could I have ended up in such a state?"
It must be an evil thing, otherwise how could it have bewitched Hua Jincheng and his group!
A group of Devil Cultivator should have acted recklessly and committed all sorts of evil actually wanted to whitewash themselves and become good people.
And to spout such nonsense about acting on behalf of Heaven and eliminating evil is utterly ridiculous!
Hua Jincheng confirmed that the restriction was secure, his expression remaining indifferent as ice. He only glanced coldly at Wei Mingyuan before turning and leaving.
Elders Lin Chengze and Tao Xuan followed closely behind, leaving with solemn expressions.
Next, we plan to place Primordial Spirit restrictions on those disciples who have not yet been bound to the system, to prevent a recurrence of incidents like Wei Mingyuan's.
Inside the Imperial Study of the Qin State Palace.
Qin Wu stared at Chen Jie's live stream, which had already gone black, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the table, his eyes filled with excitement.
The breathtaking scene from just now is still vivid in my mind:
The Evil Soul Hall, a top Devil Dao Sect in the Central Continent, was swept away by experts recruited by the Xin State with overwhelming force, and not a single member of the sect escaped.
"The Xin State has finally eliminated the Evil Soul Hall, a major threat, and from now on, the future will be bright."
He sighed softly, his tone full of envy, then sighed heavily again, a hint of sorrow appearing between his brows.
"But when will we be able to eradicate the Demonic Flame Sect, the greatest threat to our Qin State?"
Qin Wu frowned, his thoughts churning. "Although the Supreme Profound Sect protects our Qin State, it only safeguards us from the persecution of the Demonic Flame Sect."
They will not take the initiative to attack directly at their stronghold.
Even if they were to actually take action, the Supreme Profound Sect currently lacks the strength to annihilate the Demonic Flame Sect.
Currently, the two teams are evenly matched, with neither possessing an overwhelming advantage.
Fortunately, the Supreme Profound Sect's strength has increased rapidly after being bound to the system, and they have gradually gained the upper hand. However, completely eradicating the Demonic Flame Sect is still a pipe dream in the short term.
"What's even more troublesome is that the existence of the Fairness System has been exposed by Wei Mingyuan of the Heavenly Devil Sect, so the Demonic Flame Sect must already know about its existence."
At that time, they will inevitably notice the changes in the Qin State, and our dynasty will no longer be able to develop in a low-key manner, and will eventually have to confront the Demonic Flame Sect head-on.
He rubbed his temples, looking helpless. "In the end, it's still a lack of Energy Points!"
Otherwise, I could follow the example of the Xin State and directly hire top experts with Energy Points to wipe out the Demonic Flame Sect in one fell swoop.
Instead of the current situation, where only six Void Return Realm cultivators and members of the Supreme Profound Sect can be hired as bodyguards.
His gaze drifted to the window, a hint of uncertainty in his voice:
Would the people of Qin State be willing to donate Energy Points to help the imperial court hire top experts to destroy the Demonic Flame Sect?
I'm afraid not...
After all, the Qin State and the Xin State were fundamentally different; the Xin State was a harmonious society, while our dynasty was a monarchical system.
The national identity of the people in the two countries is vastly different.
For a moment, Qin Wu couldn't help but frown deeply, his face full of anxiety.
The Qin State is now in a life-or-death crisis.
Although the Supreme Profound Sect and six Void Return Realm experts he had recruited were stationed there, the Qin State's territory was vast, and this amount of strength was like a drop in the ocean.
If the Demonic Flame Sect truly intends to launch a large-scale invasion and wreak havoc...
Even if they are eventually defeated, the people will inevitably suffer a terrible catastrophe, with heavy casualties.
Once the news spreads, the people of Qin State will be filled with panic and will flee in all directions.
Without the people, the source of Energy Points will be cut off, and the imperial court will inevitably collapse, leading to an irrecoverable situation.
"There's no solution; there's absolutely no way to break this deadlock!"
Qin Wu, unable to contain his anger, slammed his hand on the table, instantly causing several fine cracks to appear on the solid wood surface.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he roared through gritted teeth:
"Damn Wei Mingyuan!"
Exposing the Fairness System is a foolish thing to do that harms others and yourself, yet it has dragged my Qin State into this desperate situation.
If it weren't for your actions, our dynasty would have had time to develop covertly, instead of having to confront the Demonic Flame Sect head-on at this moment.
When I have achieved the highest level of cultivation, I will surely grind you to dust and reduce you to ashes to grievance!
Just then, an immense and Sha Qi suddenly descended, enveloping the entire capital city like dark clouds pressing down.
Immediately afterwards, a furious roar filled with violence and arrogance resounded through the sky:
"Qin Wu, get out here right now!"
If you don't come out right now, I will not only take your dog's life, but I will also slaughter the entire capital, leaving no one alive!
Qin Wu's expression suddenly changed drastically, and his heart sank.
The people from the Demonic Flame Sect arrived so quickly.
Before he could think about how many people the other side had sent, his figure suddenly blurred, and he transformed into a streak of light, rushing to the sky above the palace.
In an instant, seven figures appeared beside him, namely Xiao Li, the patriarch of the Supreme Profound Sect, and the six Void Return Realm experts he had recruited.
He looked up and saw the sky above the capital.
A man with a sinister face stood proudly on the cloud, exuding an overwhelming aura.
Suddenly, a furious shout reverberated throughout the surrounding area:
"You audacious scoundrel! Not only have you trespassed into the capital of my Qin State, but you also dare to insult His Majesty! You are simply courting death!"
"All soldiers, listen to my command! Attack!"
Before the words were even finished, the War Weapons that had been poised to strike all over the capital roared into action.
In an instant, armor-piercing crossbow bolts carrying raging flames and dazzling energy beams poured down like a torrential rain, bombarding the person in the clouds like a tidal wave.
