In the face of Xiao Huo's words, Su Tiange disregarded them with indifference. Time? Ridiculous. Why should I grant you time? Just a mere gesture.
Though it was a finger, it seemed more like Tianwei.
Under that single finger, everything crumbled into ruins.
Boom!!!
An invisible force swept over Xiao Huo's body. In an instant, the aura in his eyes dimmed rapidly, and he fell to the ground with a heavy thud.
"Xiao Huo, son of fortune, has met his end!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the master for eliminating a child of fortune. A special turntable reward is granted."
The system's prompt chimed in Su Tiange's ear.
"Dispose of him. His body and soul are rare commodities. The body will be refined for blood, and the soul separated for rewards to those who've made significant contributions," Su Tiange said calmly.
"Yes, my lord," Zhou Ming, the Reward Hall's overseer, replied respectfully, gesturing for his subordinates to remove Xiao Huo's body.
"Do you seek revenge?" Su Tiange asked Yao Lao, who appeared already dazed.
"...," Yao Lao paused, pondering if he could deny it.
He was nearly frightened to death by Su Tiange.
"What kind of devil is this? Even one's body and soul won't be spared upon death. No wonder he's a giant in the demonic world."
"Me...," Yao Lao hesitated to speak.
"You seek revenge," Su Tiange said solemnly.
"...Yes, I suppose," Yao Lao stammered.
"Xiao Wang, take him to the alchemy hall for instruction."
"You've practiced alchemy under me for a century. I'll grant you a chance for revenge. Remember, a hundred years of continuous alchemy. If you fail me, you'll know a pain worse than death," Su Tiange stated, expressionless.
The protagonist is deceased, rendering Yao Lao's golden finger inconsequential, yet retaining it poses no harm. After all, it's the protagonist's golden finger, and his talent in alchemy is undeniable.
Yao Lao opened his mouth, understanding the implications. Alchemy for a hundred years? It sounds impressive, but continuous alchemy implies unimaginable torment... Yet, seeing Su Tiange's unwavering gaze, he silently bowed his head.
"Yes, I will comply," Wang Tian, the Alchemy Hall's master, responded respectfully.
Without delay, Su Tiange turned his attention to Gu Xuan'er. The delicate and lovely girl sat pale and disheveled, trembling occasionally.
As if sensing Su Tiange's gaze, Gu Xuan'er shuddered, murmuring to herself, "The devil... the devil..."
"Dispose of her," Su Tiange commanded.
"Keeping such an imbecile is pointless. Nonetheless, she's the heroine, her blood might be useful, and her body could serve as a furnace to replenish the waste," Su Tiange continued.
"Yes," a female disciple responded cautiously, swiftly dragging Gu Xuan'er away.
Shortly after, Zhou Dafu, covered in blood and a menacing aura, entered with a smile and knelt down: "Respected and esteemed suzerain, there are no survivors left in Wu Tuo City. What about the Jana Empire?"
"Wu Tuo City, annihilate it!" Su Tiange declared.
Understanding his suzerain's cautious nature, Zhou Dafu pondered whether the Jana Empire should be dealt with if the weeding process required it.
"No need for unnecessary conflict," Su Tiange shook his head.
Chow Tai Fook, a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Saint Sect, and the others present were stunned.
"Are you suggesting sparing mortal kingdoms from destruction?" they questioned in disbelief.
"Let this day mark a change," Su Tiange said slowly. He was pleased that the main character was dead. It signaled that with enough power, even the main character wouldn't be a concern. He resolved not to indulge in indiscriminate killings, and thus, the decision was made.
"Yes, my lord," they replied.
Chow Tai Fook comprehended the situation.
This day marked not only the fate of the Jana Empire but also that of its rulers. The suzerain's intention was clear: to replace the royal family of the Jana Empire with someone else.
"It ends here. Let's proceed, Yunfeng Sect," Su Tiange stated dispassionately.
There was one final task to complete, concluding this matter entirely and to his satisfaction. He couldn't wait to delve into studying this system.
Yunfeng Sect, the sect to which Xiao Huo's fiancée belonged!
The sword was directed towards Yunfeng Sect!
"Yes, my lord."
"Yes, my lord."
"Yes, my lord."
The Supreme Elder saluted, the sect's powerful individuals and disciples bowed, echoing their agreement in unison.
