Starting with 10,000 times the experience, and you're calling me a terrible player?

As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, Shen Yunshang's expression changed.

"No!"

Shen Yunshang directly rejected the idea.

You can't go.

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.

"Even if you go to their base and kill everyone, the people they've stationed in the Alliance's main city will fight to the death."

Shen Yunshang pointed to the red dot on the battle report,

"This is something we cannot accept."

The alliance's bottom line is to protect civilians; this is the foundation upon which the alliance was founded and its enduring spirit and belief.

"I only know how to kill, not how to save people."

Lin Mo shrugged and leaned back.

"Since you're worried about accidentally hurting others, then you'll have to figure it out yourselves."

He also doesn't intend to forcibly intervene in this matter.

He was completely indifferent to the issue of protecting civilians.

However, he himself was able to grow up safely for more than ten years because of the League's protection of ordinary people.

They wouldn't do something as rude as cursing someone as soon as they put down their bowl.

Shen Yunshang rubbed her temples and did not refute.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"Actually, there is another way."

Shen Yunshang's gaze returned to the last line of the battle report.

"What method?"

"I need you to hand over those nine fifth-level masters you captured."

Shen Yunshang looked at Lin Mo and said.

Lin Mo was taken aback: "What are you here for?"

Shen Yunshang analyzed carefully:

"Their real purpose in making such a big fuss and using millions of civilians as bargaining chips is definitely not to get you and Su Xiaoli to sign that agreement not to take action."

"Most likely, it's to exchange for the nine fifth-rank experts you captured alive."

"Agreements can be torn up at any time; the powerful families aren't that naive." "But fifth-tier experts are irreplaceable, and they certainly don't want to lose nine fifth-tier experts like this."

A fifth-level expert is the foundation upon which aristocratic families stand.

It is also a strategic deterrent weapon.

As long as these old monsters live, the foundation of the aristocratic families will remain.

Shen Yunshang's eyes flickered:

"If we offer to release people as a condition for a swap, the aristocratic families will most likely agree."

"After all, their goal wasn't really to massacre the city, but to use the opportunity to force us to hand over people."

"Wait until all civilians have been safely evacuated."

Shen Yunshang's voice carried a chill.

"Go and destroy their base, kill them however you want."

Lin Mo listened quietly to the end.

Then he laughed.

"Xiao Shen, you're a true genius."

Shen Yunshang was taken aback, not understanding what he meant.

"Do you know why I spared those nine old bastards in the Valley of the Burial King?"

Lin Mo tapped his long, slender fingers lightly on the table.

Why?

Lin Mo smiled, a clear and bright smile.

"Once my domain reaches the 1000th level, my pollutants can also evolve to have the same visual pollution capabilities as me."

"Of course, this only applies to those who evolve at the fifth rank. Anyone who hasn't reached the fifth rank will die if they even glance at me."

Lin Mo looked directly into Shen Yunshang's eyes.

"Anyone who looks at these mutated fifth-level beings will become mutated."

Shen Yunshang's eyes suddenly lit up.

An indescribable surge of excitement and awe rushed straight to the top of my head.

Biological weapons!

They treated the nine sources of spiritual pollution like treasures and sent them back to the aristocratic family's headquarters!

This isn't a hostage exchange, it's clearly poisoning!

Lin Mo's abilities are truly insidious!

"As long as those nine people appear at the aristocratic families' headquarters and are seen by those people..."

Shen Yunshang swallowed hard, unable to contain the excitement and joy in her eyes!

"The entire elite family will be wiped out."

Lin Mo stood up and praised.

"Excellent! As expected of Xiao Shen, you've truly won me over!"

……

The outer perimeter of the Third War Zone in the Southern Wilderness.

A massive underground fortress under the Ling Group's name.

The hall was resplendent in gold, and long tables were laden with delicacies prepared by top chefs.

The core members and leaders of the fifteen major families gathered together.

The wine glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound.

These powerful figures, who stand on the opposite side of the alliance, are currently holding a victory celebration.

Ling Zhengyang was arrested, and the current acting head of the family, Ling Tianzheng, was holding a wine glass, his face flushed.

"I've said it before, the biggest weakness of those guys in the league is their ridiculous moral bottom line."

Ling Tian chuckled.

"As long as we put a knife to those pigs' necks, they'll have to bow their heads obediently."

A burst of smug laughter echoed in the hall.

Zhou Heng, the acting head of the Zhou family, frowned, his eyes filled with worry.

"Patriarch Ling, will the alliance really release our ancestor? He was nine peak fifth-level cultivators."

"Please don't worry, Patriarch Zhou."

An elder from the Helian family waved his hand dismissively.

"Our alliance of fifth-tier powerhouses wouldn't dare touch them! What's there to be afraid of!"

"That's right! We now hold several cities in our hands, and millions of lives at stake."

"Unless Shen Yunshang has lost her mind, she has no choice but to hand her over!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

They completely disregarded the common people as being like them.

In their eyes, the aristocratic families are aloof and detached, and only the fools in the alliance are willing to treat the lower classes as their own.

Just then, the giant communication crystal panel in the center of the hall suddenly lit up.

Shen Yunshang's cold face appeared on the light screen.

The once noisy hall instantly fell silent.

Ling Tian put down his wine glass, stepped forward, and spoke arrogantly, deliberately dragging out his tone.

"Vice Alliance Leader Shen, have you made up your mind?"

"Immediately dismantle the arrays and blockades in all cities, including Weiguang and Chenguang."

Shen Yunshang's tone was extremely cold, without uttering a single unnecessary word.

"Otherwise, I will kill one of your ancestors every minute that passes."

The image on the screen changed.

Nine enormous steel cages appeared in the shot.

The iron cage was completely covered by a thick black cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside.

But from inside came a constant stream of chilling roars, crashing sounds, and even strange dog barks and eerie laughter.

Clang! Clang!

The iron cage was severely deformed from the impact, and a dark red, viscous liquid was faintly seeping out from under the black cloth.

The high-ranking members of the powerful families in the hall were all furious.

"What have you done to our ancestor?!"

Zhou Heng roared angrily, his eyes red.

"He's angry!"

Another elder gritted his teeth, his face contorted in anger.

"Damn alliance, how dare you lock up dogs and the ancestor together! You are unforgivable!"

Shen Yunshang's lips curled up subtly.

"It's just a small punishment; their lives aren't in danger. Now, let's make a deal."

Ling Tian sneered, thinking he had seen through Shen Yunshang's bluster.

"Trade is possible, but you must follow our rules!"

"We can lift the measures against civilians. You can activate the directional teleportation array and teleport the ancestors directly to our hall."

"Furthermore, your allied forces must completely withdraw from the second southern stronghold!"

Shen Yunshang stared at the light screen, a subtle smile curving her lips.

"You can have the base."

"The moment the civilians are safely rescued, they are teleported there."

The tug-of-war between the two sides lasted for a full ten minutes.

Ultimately, the aristocratic families confirmed that the army of the civilian district alliance had begun to retreat and that the teleportation array had been activated.

They triumphantly withdrew all measures against civilians.

In the eyes of the elite families, the Alliance was a bunch of fools who were actually willing to let a tiger return to the mountain for a few million unrelated ants.

That's incredibly stupid.
