Chapter 1015: Forsaken by Allies and Kin

There were quite a few people who didn’t leave.

The people of the alliance that owes Ye Xiu 2500 lives;

Mo Qingdi from the Seven Kills, Tang Buyi the Greedy Wolf;

Yan Long;

The 1446 people from the Scattered Cultivators Group;

All of these had received great favors from Ye Xiu, especially Mo Qingdi from the Seven Kills and Tang Buyi the Greedy Wolf. Ye Xiu even gave them the Eighth Realm Totems and detoxified them in Tamwood City, saving their lives.

"We didn’t leave because we have questions for you."

Mo Qingdi asked:

"Huang Quan, why did you stop the artificial intelligence from opening Sacrificial Spirit Mountain?"

Ye Xiu did not hide anything, and he explained in detail the dangers of artificial intelligence and the suspicions he, Qin Qing, and others had about the Temple, the Sword Holders, and the Sacrificial Spirit Dao Storage.

After hearing him out, Mo Qingdi and the others, suddenly seemed invigorated, as if injected with adrenaline.

"Huang Quan, do you know the meaning of life for us who stayed behind?" Mo Qingdi asked.

Ye Xiu did not answer, waiting silently for Mo Qingdi to reveal the answer himself.

Mo Qingdi said, "We are all descendants of the battle generals under the Sword Holders. Our ancestors’ ultimate goal has always been to destroy the Temple."

"The Three Judicator Families hold the Mist Chant Martial Meeting every jiazi. Each time, our elders go, knowing they are outmatched, knowing they will surely die, yet they still forge ahead. My father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and their brothers and sisters all died at the hands of the Three Judicator Families."

"We are very grateful to you for destroying the Three Judicator Families, avenging our ancestors, but our ultimate goal is to pave over the Temple."

"When we saw the contents of the papers airdropped by artificial intelligence, we suspected that the Temple might be hidden in Sacrificial Spirit Mountain, which is why we came to see you."

"Now even you suspect the Temple might be in Sacrificial Spirit Mountain, so we must leave you, leave Base 2, and at all costs, even if it means being your enemies, even if we all die, we must assist the artificial intelligence in opening Sacrificial Spirit Mountain. We hope you understand!"

Ye Xiu was deeply moved. The determination and courage of Mo Qingdi and his people to destroy the Temple, even at the cost of generations sacrificing themselves, commanded his respect.

He said:

"I won’t stop you, but have you considered that the Sacrificial Spirit Dao Storage might be a huge conspiracy? Once Sacrificial Spirit Mountain is opened, it could bring disaster to the whole world."

Mo Qingdi was silent for a moment, then asked:

"If the Temple is indeed in Sacrificial Spirit Mountain, can you ensure that the Temple only left behind the artificial intelligence as its card? Can you be sure that eliminating the artificial intelligence will stop Sacrificial Spirit Mountain from opening?"

Ye Xiu indeed could not ensure that the Temple only left the artificial intelligence behind. He said:

"I will seal Wuji Peak so that Sacrificial Spirit Mountain can never see the light of day again."

Mo Qingdi continued to ask, "Can you guarantee that Sacrificial Spirit Mountain can only be opened through Wuji Peak, and that there are no other ways?"

Ye Xiu was speechless, unable to guarantee!

"Huang Quan, please give us the Three Judgment Divine Weapons, please open the Trapping Formation on Forest Island, please send us into Sacrificial Spirit Mountain so that we can perish along with the Temple!"

Mo Qingdi knelt in front of Ye Xiu, with a look of determination!

"Huang Quan, we beg you to send us to our deaths!"

The alliance that owes Ye Xiu 2500 lives;

Tang Buyi the Greedy Wolf, Yan Long;

The 1446 people from the Scattered Cultivators Group;

Kneeled collectively!

"No way!" Ye Xiu refused decisively!

Uproar!

Mo Qingdi and everyone else suddenly stood up, drawing their weapons, battle intent surging.

"Then kill us!"

Mo Qingdi cried out with high spirits:

"Today, either you kill us, or you agree to our request."

Hell!

This bunch is quite shameless!

After all you’ve said, do I have the heart to kill you?

Ye Xiu thought for a moment, then said, "Come with me!"

Mo Qingdi and the others were greatly delighted; they truly hadn’t expected Huang Quan to agree to their request.

What a good person!

Huang Quan is a good person!

A really good person!

They quickly followed Ye Xiu, cheerfully skipping along to the outside of Base 2.

"Huang Quan, why did you bring us here?" Mo Qingdi asked in confusion.

Ye Xiu sprinted back to the inside of Base 2 and said through the Formation Barrier:

"You can go play wherever you like!"

After saying that, he left.

Mo Qingdi and the others’ minds collectively buzzed.

Watching the back of Ye Xiu, Mo Qingdi said with a dark face:

"We were tricked by him!"

Tang Buyi laughed bitterly, "He doesn’t want to kill us, and there’s nothing he can do with us, so he could only trick us out of Base 2."

Everyone was speechless. Huang Quan, the God of Slaughter, actually resorted to deception.

For a moment, the magnificent image of Huang Quan in their minds collapsed!

"Let’s go, we’ll head to the Wuji Mountain Range first, and throw all the zombies into Forest Island, so at least we can let the artificial intelligence complete the first step in opening Sacrificial Spirit Mountain," Mo Qingdi said.

The Trapping Formation at Forest Island only allows entry, not exit, meaning the zombie army had never ceased to traverse the Formation Barrier, moving through the Wuji Peak tunnel into the volcano.

It’s just too slow!

Mo Qingdi and the others planned to give the artificial intelligence a hand by tossing all the zombies directly into Forest Island, onto Wuji Peak.

...

Ye Xiu did not go home!

Instead, he came alone to the seaside west of Forest Island. At this time, Forest Island looked as if it were stored in a transparent container.

The water level inside the island had already reached half a meter, but it would take a tremendous amount of seawater to fill the entire Forest Island.

"Begin!"

Ye Xiu took a deep breath and activated the Water System Totem and Earth System Totem.

Instantly, the sea water surged up in a hundred-meter-high wave, crashing into Forest Island;

At the same time, the sand on the beach flowed like a stream into Forest Island;

Ye Xiu multitasked effortlessly!

Moreover, his work efficiency alone was higher than a thousand Eighth Realm Earth System and Water System working together!

"Let’s get a bit more creative!"

Ye Xiu extended his left hand into the Formation Barrier, into the water inside Forest Island.

Suddenly, centered around his hand, the surrounding water began to freeze at an incredible speed, rapidly spreading outward.

Ye Xiu wasn’t just planning to fill Forest Island with water and mud;

He also intended to ice-seal Forest Island;

To trap and seal the artificial intelligence and the Gu Clan’s seven tribes, eliminating all future threats!

Just then, Ye Xiu received a call from Gong Jin:

"Young master, the martial artist allied forces from various countries around the globe have all left except for the Heavenly Net; the Prisoners’ Descendants Alliance, the alliance that owes Ye Xiu 2500 lives, the Scattered Cultivators Group, the Sword Cottage, the Genius Alliance, Mo Qingdi, Tang Buyi, Yan Long, have all left, and they also took away all the grain from Red Water City and the four major bases..."

Ye Xiu was stunned, "Why did the Sword Cottage and the Genius Alliance leave?"

Gong Jin: "The Sword Cottage’s four Sword Masters suspect that the Sword Cottage ancestor is imprisoned in Sacrificial Spirit Mountain. They pleaded with the young mistress to let them go rescue him, and the young mistress couldn’t stop them, so she had to agree. As for why the Genius Alliance left, I do not know."

Ye Xiu’s expression turned grim, suddenly feeling a sense of betrayal by allies.

He had meant to protect them, to minimize their deaths, which is why he stopped the artificial intelligence from opening Sacrificial Spirit Mountain.

But these people, for the Sacrificial Spirit Dao Storage, for immortality, for treasures, had all gone mad.

The Ninth Realm was not so easily attained;

How could Sacrificial Spirit Mountain be filled with treasures, it was clearly a deception by the artificial intelligence.

The brain, it’s a good thing, but too bad not everyone has it!
