Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

The joy of the three regional warlord leaders upon receiving the secret notification from the Weiyong Prefecture government can be imagined.

"Now that we have the money, food, supplies, and weapons from Weiyong Territory, we'll have far fewer troubles in the future!"

"Yes, let's just march straight into the heart of the Great Chu! Just like we did before, we can seize a province and become a warlord!"

"What is the Lord of Mighty Valor thinking? Why would he agree to continue supporting us?"

"What else can we think? They're just using us as pawns to draw attention to the heartland of Great Chu! It's nothing more than mutual exploitation!"

"With that person's strength, why would he need to worry about threats from the heartland of the Great Chu?"

"Who knows! As long as we benefit, that's enough. We don't need to worry about anything else!"

……

Meanwhile, under the command of Xiao Shan, the lord of Weiyong Territory, two powerful demons led a group of lesser demons in a fierce sweeping attack on the magic sects of the three neighboring states that had recently come under his control, as well as the unruly martial arts forces.

In an instant, the three states, which had just experienced more than a decade of war, once again witnessed a drama of chivalrous heroes and sorcerers fighting against monsters...

run! run! run!

Tian Xingzi was filled with fear. He moved like the wind and fled without stopping for a moment.

Several miles behind, a leopard spirit that had become a mountain leopard was chasing after them with a ferocious expression.

It moves incredibly fast, looking as if it's flying on the ground.

call out!

Sensing the leopard spirit's aura rapidly approaching, Tian Xingzi felt a chill in his heart. He formed a hand seal and ran at full speed. As he flew up a small hill, he suddenly turned around and shot out a magic sword.

Roar!

The leopard spirit paused in its swift flight, opened its mouth and unleashed a wind column as thick as an arm, directly shattering the spiritual energy-condensed magic sword. The wind column, as thick as a forearm, also dissipated.

By the time it accelerated and sped off again, Tianxingzi ahead had already run several miles.

Half an hour later, Tian Xingzi's magic power was exhausted. The leopard spirit, still full of energy, grabbed him by the neck and carried him like a sack towards the nearest city.

"Heh heh, you Taoist priest, aren't you supposed to be able to run? Why did you suddenly stop running after all that time?" The leopard spirit sneered repeatedly.

He shook his strong, powerful hand, and Tianxingzi's eyes rolled back in his head, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing Tianxingzi like this only made the leopard spirit even happier. He laughed loudly and mocked, "With your Taoist skills, you dare to interfere in the fight with the Great King? You're simply courting death!"

"Hmph, humans and demons are irreconcilable enemies. Kill me or torture me as you please!" Tian Xingzi, his face flushed red from being gripped by the neck, forced himself to speak, "How could we cultivators possibly submit to tyranny and dare not act rashly?"

"Don't make it sound so nice!" the leopard spirit sneered. "Isn't it because you're demanding most of your land interests that this so-called righteous indignation has been stirred up? When ghosts and monsters roamed the land, where were you magic cultivators who upheld justice?"

"Hmph, we acted in accordance with the will of Heaven!" Tianxingzi roared angrily, his eyes wide with fury, "If you have the guts, kill me, you monster!"

Gee...

A fierce glint flashed in the leopard demon's eyes, and it tightened its grip on Tian Xingzi's neck, instantly causing Tian Xingzi to feel the pain of suffocation.

After a long while, until Tian Xingzi's eyes rolled back, his life force was like a candle flickering in the wind, and his breathing was extremely weak, they finally let go, allowing him to come back to life.

Hearing the violent coughing of the prisoner in his hands, the leopard spirit's face was full of disdain, and he sneered, "If it weren't for the king's prior orders, I would have swallowed you whole with your stubbornness. You still dare to spout nonsense!"

"I only ask for a quick death!" After coughing for a while, Tianxingzi showed no mercy. "Rather than suffer a fate worse than death in the hands of you monsters, I'd rather die sooner!"

"I didn't expect you to be such a tough guy!" The leopard demon widened his eyes and chuckled. "Want to die? Easy! When you get back and see the king, just go ahead and hurl your insults!"

At this point, the leopard spirit paused, then chuckled, "The last guy who did that was burned to death by the Great King's alchemical fire, his soul scattered to the winds!"

Tian Xingzi, who had been trying to struggle, suddenly fell silent, exclaiming in disbelief, "A monster is a monster! It's cruel and deserves to die a horrible death!"

"It's no use telling me this!" the leopard spirit chuckled. "I'm just following orders. If you had dared to talk back to me twenty years ago, I would have eaten you alive long ago. Why would I have spared your life?"

"Don't even think about getting anything out of me!" Tianxingzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If you can live, who would willingly seek death?

However, as a member of the human race's magical cultivators, he needed to take the right side when fighting against the demon cultivators, lest he lose his reputation and have no chance to recover in the future.

Unfortunately, he misunderstood, thinking that the Lord of the Mighty Territory who instigated this chaotic battle, also known as the legendary Great Demon, wanted to obtain his sect's inheritance.

Furious and angry, he couldn't help but shout, "Don't even think about it! I will never reveal the secrets of my sect!"

As she spoke, Tianxingzi struggled violently, adopting a posture of resisting to the death.

The leopard spirit tightened its grip and immediately suppressed Tian Xingzi's commotion.

The leopard spirit was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening, burst into laughter, and said with a disdainful look, "Keep dreaming! The King wouldn't be interested in the inheritance you possess, so stop trying to make yourself look good, okay?"

Seeing the disbelief on the prisoner's face, it sneered, "But the king himself said that he possesses a cultivation technique that leads directly to the Mahayana realm. Can your sect's inheritance compare?"

As she spoke, the leopard spirit sneered, "You can't even beat me now, your skills are mediocre, and your sect's legacy is probably just so-so. Stop trying to make yourself look good, okay?"

Tian Xingzi's face flushed red instantly. She was filled with shock, shame, and anger, wishing she could just die to avoid being verbally attacked by the leopard spirit.

The two argued and sarcastically throughout the journey, and by the time they reached the nearest city, the leopard demon's anger had been completely ignited.

If it weren't for the fear of the king's punishment, the leopard spirit, given its nature, would probably have truly eaten people.

After handing over the prisoner to the department responsible for escorting prisoners, the leopard demon picked up his certificate of merit and turned to leave, having no intention of continuing to argue with Tian Xingzi.

Clearly, Tian Xingzi's persistent harassment had put the leopard spirit in a rather unpleasant mood.

In other words, King Xiao Shan was very powerful and he dared not easily disobey the king's orders.

Otherwise, how could the talkative Tianxingzi have handed over the whole thing intact?

Even after being placed in the department specifically responsible for prisoner management, Tianxingzi was not mistreated in any way.

However, his magical power was completely sealed, and breaking the seal would not be easy.

A few days later, he was personally escorted by the officials in charge of prisoner management to the central city in the surrounding area, which was hundreds of miles away.

In the prisoner-of-war camp, he was surprised to see several of his companions.

They were all magic cultivators from the Weiyong Territory. Even if they didn't have much of a relationship, they had already become familiar with each other.

Seeing the pale and exhausted look on the faces of the several rogue cultivators, he asked curiously, "What happened? Were you all captured too?"

He was secretly astonished; one of them was a Nascent Soul cultivator!

Even though it's only at the initial stage, it's not something that can be easily captured.

But now, the Nascent Soul cultivator sat there dejectedly, not even in the mood to lift his eyelids, completely unconcerned that a new member had joined the prisoner ranks.

Tian Xingzi was shocked by the strength of the Lord of Weiyong Territory, the mysterious demon king, and his hope of escaping gradually faded.

The stronger the enemy, the less hope these prisoners have, isn't it?

"Hehe, how novel! Almost every month, a powerful sorcerer is arrested!"

"We're just small fry. That mysterious and mighty lord only needs to order his monsters to attack, and that will be enough to deal with us!"

"True masters of magic have those two great demons to entertain them! Their days aren't easy either; one wrong move and they could become prisoners!"

"Sigh, who knew these demon cultivators would be so powerful!"

"Who knows what kind of trouble they'll face in the future? I'm afraid there'll be no chance for them to turn things around!"

"If I had known this would happen, why did I join the Spellcaster Resistance Alliance and end up getting myself involved?"

……

Tianxingzi's words brought a bit of vitality to the lifeless prisoner camp.

Of course, there was also a lot of complaints and regret.

I regret joining that damned magic-wielding resistance alliance. Wouldn't it have been better to just be a law-abiding monk like them?

As a result, they were completely misled and ended up getting into big trouble after joining in.

Just as they themselves said, the Lord of the Mighty Territory didn't take them seriously at all. He casually dispatched a demon leader of the monster level, who easily captured them and made them prisoners.

Who knows what the future holds!

If the other party goes too far, they will have few options left and will likely have no choice but to die and enter the cycle of reincarnation.

They could have pinned their hopes on the truly high-level cultivators of the Resistance Alliance, but they overheard the brave soldiers guarding the prisoner camp discussing how those high-level magic cultivators, on whom they had placed their hopes for escape, had also perished, just like them.

However, the monsters targeting these powerful cultivators were no longer mere leader-level spirits, but two great demons under the command of Xiao Shan, the lord of the Mighty Territory.

Every shot hits its mark, yielding astonishing results.

Tian Xingzi was stunned, and a surge of dissatisfaction and anger suddenly welled up in his heart.

Why hadn't he heard any of this important news before?

If he had known that several high-level magic cultivators had been captured, he would never have rashly stepped forward!

As a result, he was bitten by a powerful leopard spirit and was eventually captured.

At the same time, he suddenly felt a sense of apprehension and fear towards the mysterious Lord of the Mighty Territory.

As expected, he wasn't someone who acted impulsively and recklessly. He was completely different from what the Spellcaster Resistance Alliance had said when they recruited people. He was so powerful that it inspired despair!

"Hey, you bunch of brain-dead bastards, stop daydreaming about escaping!" At this moment, the official in charge of guarding the prisoner-of-war camp walked over, glanced at the dejected cultivator prisoners, and said disdainfully, "Let me tell you, the so-called magic cultivator resistance alliance has basically been wiped out and is not far from disintegration!"

Before the group of captured cultivators could react, he continued with a cold laugh, "And your fate is already sealed; you'll all spend at least thirty years in the labor camp. Enjoy the special treatment you receive there, hahaha..."

After saying that, he immediately ordered his men to put all the captured cultivators, including Tian Xingzi, into the carriage and take them away.

The surrounding generals all exuded extraordinary auras, and once outside the city, there was a squad of lesser demons led by spirits to guard them, making escape or rescue difficult.

As the carriage swayed back and forth, Tian Xingzi felt a deep sense of despair, believing that his future was bleak.

I don't know if I can survive thirty years of labor reform.

He deeply regretted his actions, thinking he could gain an advantage, but it turned out to be a huge trap. Before he could even react, he became a shameful prisoner.

I don't know what kind of torment I'll suffer over the next thirty years; just thinking about it makes me incredibly depressed...

With the help of three front-line forces, Xiao Shan seized the three neighboring states of Weiyong Territory in one fell swoop.

Despite the powerful Weiyong government, the abundance of talent cultivated over the years, and the weakened local forces that had recently acquired the three prefectures, the takeover process was not without its challenges.

Even setting aside the issue of eliminating them, the very act of suppressing and weakening local forces has encountered extremely strong resistance.

How can the interests of bad people be as tender as those of murderers who kill their parents?

The fact that neither side engaged in a bloodbath or caused widespread carnage is already a testament to their restraint.

Of course, the Weiyong Territory government was powerfully suppressed by officials, yamen runners, and the army, and supported by a group of demons. Its strength was extremely formidable. Not to mention the local forces of the three prefectures that were already ravaged by war, even when they were at the height of their power, they could not withstand the might of Xiao Shan, the lord of Weiyong Territory.

After suppressing the local forces, they also drew out the magic sects behind these forces, as well as powerful martial arts forces.

It's funny to think about, but several well-known magic sects in the three states sent out a few outer sect elders and elite disciples to shout around and form some kind of magic cultivator resistance alliance.

Those few famous magic sects didn't make any big moves, but secretly fueled the flames, not daring to directly confront the Lord of Weiyong Territory. As a result, they attracted a large number of rogue cultivators to participate and die.

Xiaoshan wouldn't stand on ceremony with them.

The so-called alliance of sorcerers to resist had just been formed when it was besieged by two powerful demons under Xiao Shan's command, as well as a group of strong monsters.

That's right, it was just a roundup, not a large-scale massacre.

The so-called alliance of sorcerers makes quite a stir, but their actual strength is rather ordinary.

Apart from the few outer sect elders of the magic sects who formed the alliance, who possessed the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm and had one or two decent magic treasures, the strength of the rest of the members was laughable.

Chapter 884, The Benefits of Following Xiao Shan! (Please Subscribe!)

It's not that I'm looking down on anyone, but the so-called Spellcaster Alliance is obviously just a standard cannon fodder organization to anyone with eyes to see.

The purpose was simply to show Xiao Shan, the lord of Weiyong Territory, that those renowned magic sects were not incapable of causing trouble in Weiyong Territory.

Of course, they should also ask Xiao Shan, the lord of Weiyong Territory, to help them sweep away any rogue cultivators who don't belong to their circle, so that these families can obtain more resources and benefits.

Xiao Shan saw through these little tricks at a glance.

However, Xiao Shan did not expose them directly. Instead, he tacitly went with the flow and sent his elite demon cultivators and some powerful martial arts experts to wipe out all the rogue cultivators and organizers who participated in the magic cultivators' resistance alliance.

Because of the vast difference in strength, Xiao Shan had no intention of exterminating them all.

Whether they are accomplished cultivators of magic or skilled martial artists who have embarked on the path of martial arts, they are all extremely valuable resources. Capturing them is far more useful than killing them outright.

The labor camps were lacking precisely this kind of talent!
