Chapter 2325 - 2328: Sea Emperor, You'd Better Not Force Me to Massacre the City (Fifth Update)

"Father!" In the midst of Jinli Qianning's scream, Wang Yujiang, the Sea Demon King, was instantly knocked away. Not only did an unusual Sea Demon stab him in the neck, but he also nearly fainted immediately.

Bang!

Gui Yuanba, who was trying to rescue him, was blocked back by a Sea Demon from Atlantic City wearing bronze armor.

The beautiful Qian Ning instantaneously burst into tears, grabbing Shen Qiang's arm and cried, "Shen Qiang, my father, my father!"

Patting Qian Ning's snow-white jade hand, Shen Qiang calmly replied, "Calm down, don't worry."

At the same time.

With several loud noises.

A dozen Great Sea Demons radiating a terrifying aura had appeared beside Shen Qiang and the others.,

"Caught beasts still struggle, only because of stupidity."

In the distance, the Sea Emperor knocked the ground with his scepter.

The ordinary Sea Demons that had filled the mountains and plains receded like a tide.

Leaving only about forty to fifty mighty-looking Great Sea Demons, staring coldly at Shen Qiang from about seventy to eighty meters away.

"Using the deaths of so many Sea Demons to cover up an ambush, truly insane." Shen Qiang remained calm.

The Sea Emperor smiled, turning his gaze to Qian Ning, saying, "Qian Ning, Athena has already fallen under the evil black magic of the man by your side, but you haven't. So you should understand, your father Yujiang is now in my hands. If you put down your weapons and come over, you and he will be fine."

Jinli Qianning was stunned.

Shen Qiang chuckled, "Oh, this is the great means of the Sea Emperor? Even a fool knows if Qian Ning really believes you, both will die."

"My word is my bond. You're harming Princess Qian Ning. If she doesn't choose to save Yujiang, I will kill him immediately. Qian Ning will regret it for life, she will never forgive herself. You're stopping her because you're a selfish guy, you've used Yujiang and decided to abandon him." The Sea Emperor smiled, "Otherwise, in this situation, you should lay down your arms and surrender, because that's the only chance to protect Yujiang."

"Even if you don't trust me, you would still actively let Princess Qian Ning come to me, because that way, at least she and Yujiang are safe."

Hearing these words, the beautiful Qian Ning paused, then her beautiful eyes showed a complex expression as she looked at Shen Qiang.

Shen Qiang smiled, "Impressive, not surprising for the Sea Emperor, you use psychological tactics so skillfully, surrender and we all die, don't surrender, stir internal discord between Qian Ning and me, once we are chaotic, you can capture us with minimal cost, it's truly a good strategy."

The Sea Emperor looked at Shen Qiang coldly, "Whether it's strategy or not is not important, it depends on your choice. Indeed, Wang Yujiang, the Great Sea Demon King, is one of the few strong figures in the sea, so to capture him, I had to sacrifice many Imperial Family members because I knew if blood doesn't flow enough, he won't let down his guard. In a frontal confrontation, capturing him is basically impossible."

"And now, I have won. Yujiang fought life and death for you, now it's time for you to do something for him." The Sea Emperor sneered, "Don't let the people around you lose heart. Speak your choice—lay down your arms, surrender, and I guarantee that except for you, no one else will die."

Hearing these words, many Sea Demons present looked at each other.

"Do you think they will trust you?" Shen Qiang smiled, "Put down your weapons and have no capital to resist, then you are only at the mercy, ultimately no escape from death. This is the iron law of all things in the world; how can you, as the Sea Emperor, speak such naive lies?"

These words made the many Great Sea Demons around Shen Qiang become cautious.

"Indeed, surrendering only leads to death."

"I don't believe, after so many Sea Demons died in Atlantic City, that they'd spare us."

"Right, this cannot be trusted at all!"

All the Sea Demons encouraged each other.

Just at this moment, the Sea Emperor laughed loudly, "Little one, I don't know where you came from, but you must understand that as this Sea Emperor, I have dominated this sea area for more than ten thousand years. You can freely inquire about my reputation, and whatever I say has always counted. I promised that as long as you surrender, I won't kill you, and all Sea Demons in Atlantic City can testify!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

It sounded as if tens of thousands of Sea Demons were yelling.

"The Sea Emperor's word is his bond, never goes back on his word!"

Amidst the deafening shouts of those Sea Demons, the Sea Emperor looked proudly at Shen Qiang with a glance, then fixed his gaze on Jinli Qianning, saying, "Did you hear? This isn't a private deal; it's a promise from an Emperor."

"Princess Qian Ning, seriously consider for yourself. You fought hard because of this guy. Now, as long as he willingly surrenders, you can all be saved, but he won't. He'd rather pull you all down with him than help you survive. Do you think it's worth serving someone like that?"

Upon hearing these words, not only did Jinli Qianning's face look grim, but the many Sea Demons around Shen Qiang also had complex expressions.,

Because even as enemies, all Sea Demons knew clearly, the Sea Emperor couldn't lie about this. As long as they choose to surrender, the Sea Emperor might whip them, might humiliate them, but he would certainly not kill them.

This is the credibility of an Emperor.

If full of lies and untrustworthy, then who would really support him?

So upon hearing the shout of many Sea Demons in Atlantic City, the many Sea Demons almost instantly realized that the Sea Emperor was telling the truth—surrendering means not dying.

"Sea Emperor, I believe your words are sincere, but don't forget we belong to the Dragon Emperor. Our lives and everything belong to the Dragon Emperor. Without the Dragon Emperor, there wouldn't be Huaxia Sea Demons and there wouldn't be Pacific Ocean Sea Demons! So there's no need to say more, as long as I, Gui Yuanba, still have a breath, don't even think about touching a hair on the Dragon Emperor!"

Old steward Gui Yuanba's roar sounded like thunder.

Not only did it shock Shen Qiang, but it also instantly awoke Jinli Qianning and the many Sea Demons around Shen Qiang.

"That's right, without the Dragon Emperor there are no Huaxia Sea Demons! We swear to death, never betray the Dragon Emperor!"

"Come and fight!"

The angry roar of many Great Sea Demons made the Sea Emperor's face instantly look grim.

"Fools! How many times do I have to say, he is not the Dragon Emperor, nor is he the successor of the Dragon Emperor. He's just a Dragon Demon, a fraud, a scoundrel! You aren't worth doing this for him!"

In his furious roar, Shen Qiang smiled, flicked his wrist, and from the Storage Ring, took out a red wooden chair, then calmly sat down, saying, "I was just thinking, if they betrayed me, whether I should kill them all, but thanks to your tactics, it showed me their loyal and reliable hearts!"

"So now." Shen Qiang, smiling and crossing his legs, looked teasingly at the Sea Emperor, saying, "I need you to understand. I came here just because I recently took office as the Dragon Emperor and wanted to say hello to my opponent. If you insist on fighting, don't blame me for massacring the city and taking out all your Sea Demons!"
