Chen Luoyang looked at Li Yuanlin with interest.
What the other party meant was that he had completely given up his identity as a member of the Xia Dynasty’s royal family and had rejoined the Demon Cult as a person, becoming a member of the Demon Cult.
There were many such incidents in history.
The supreme arts of the Demonic Sect were not created when they first opened the mountain. Instead, they were slowly created by the experts of the cult as time passed. They were either taken from the outside world or brought in by outsiders.
These outsiders merged with the Demon Cult and obtained the protection of the Demon Cult or obtained what they wanted from the Demon Cult. Their ultimate techniques also became the Demon Cult’s.
Li Yuanlin clearly wanted to take this path.
Right now, the Grand Xia Empire was destined to become history, and the Xia Imperial Family was about to be purged.
The ordinary people might have the thinking of the Li family, but for the
Demonic Sect, the Outsiders, the Taiyi Daoist Sect, the Qingliang Temple, the Sword Garret, and the three aristocratic families, the Li Empire, which had suffered a great loss and fallen from the clouds, had withdrawn from the center of the historical stage.
If his strength fell to a certain level, then some of the forces that were in conflict with him might be able to stab the Li family in the back and send them to their deaths.
For example, the Three Aristocratic Families.
Even the successor of the Cloud Palace, who had been seriously injured again and was struggling on his last breath.
Whether or not the Demonic Sect would be eradicated depended on the Sect Master’s mood.
Even if the Li Clan wasn’t exterminated, there wouldn’t be a Xia Dynasty Imperial Family in the future. It was hard to say if the few big cats and small cats that survived the purge could maintain the Li Clan’s name.
However, although Li Yuanlin was not the trusted aide of the Xia Emperor, Li Yuanlong, his cultivation was sufficiently high. After Li Yuanlong’s death, he would naturally become the core of the Li Clan.
There was a high chance that he was on the Demon Sect’s purge list.
Chen Luoyang believed that Li Yuanlin was well aware of this.
As for this former Xia Dynasty’s King Han, he didn’t flee far away, nor did he have any intention of fighting to the death.
He surrendered very straightforwardly, and it was the kind of posture that made him a fish on a chopping board.
“You need a reason that can convince me.” Chen Luoyang said indifferently.
“Reporting to Cult Master,” Li Yuanlin replied respectfully,”l’ve asked myself honestly.
Even if I kill all the Li family members by myself, I’m afraid I’ll be even more suspicious. It’ll inevitably lead to speculation that I’ll endure humiliation and endure hardships.
I can only devote myself to the Cult Master and the Divine Religion. Only with time can I prove my loyalty.
I’m willing to accept all the tests and go to the north to stop the foreign armies for the Divine Sect.
I only hope that Cult Master can give me a chance.”
“How I view you is my business.” ” However, you have to take out something first, ” Chen Luoyang said indifferently. ” This Seat doesn’t believe empty words. ‘
Li Yuanlin’s expression did not change. After a moment of silence, he bowed. “I understand what I should do. Please allow me to leave for a moment and ask for an audience later.’
Chen Luoyang waved his hand and Li Yuanlin retreated.
The other three didn’t change their expressions.
Only Situ Qi, the chief constable of the Six Fan School, looked more serious, as if he was a little worried.
Chen Luoyang’s gaze landed on him.
Situ Qi immediately bowed and took a step forward to speak.
The remaining two people did not have the intention to compete with him.
“Situ Qi greets Cult Master.” “I’m here to ask the Lord for mercy,” the tall man said calmly.
Chen Luoyang’s expression didn’t reveal any emotions as he said indifferently, ‘”‘ Speak.”
“I would like to ask the Lord to have mercy on my brothers and sisters.” “We’re willing to go through fire and water for Cult Master and the Divine Sect to atone for our past sins. I hope Cult Master will show mercy,” Situ Qi said.
Before this, under the Xia Dynasty, there were many experts in Six Fan School, and they were very effective in sweeping the Central Plains.
The demonic path experts who had gone solo were basically wiped out.
The rest either defected to the Southern Wilderness or the Northern Desert, or simply defected to the Xia Dynasty.
Large-scale underworld forces also found it difficult to establish themselves. Most of them had disappeared, leaving only the Tai Sui Gang in Jizhou and the Five Color Hall in Yuzhou.
At the same time, he naturally couldn’t avoid dealing with the Demonic Sect.
Especially the disciples of the Demonic Sect’s Azure Dragon Hall.
Both sides had killed and injured each other, and their hatred was very deep.
Situ Qi himself had once been assassinated by an expert of the Azure Dragon Hall.
Now that the Xia Dynasty had become history, Situ Qi was in a dilemma.
But in the end, rather than risking his life for Li Yuanlong, he chose to fight for a way out for his Six Fan School brothers.
“Judging from your tone, the number of brothers you mentioned is very large.” Chen Luoyang glanced at Situ Qi.
Situ Qi was silent for a moment before answering, “Reporting to Cult Master, including me, there are a total of 13,428,570 people.”
Hearing this number, he almost spat out.
His face almost couldn’t hold on any longer, and it was difficult for him to maintain his current expression.
Wait for me.
Did you add the word “ten thousand” when you counted just now?
Chen Luoyang almost asked this question.
This was because they were at the top of the Divine Prefecture. Even if they were not top figures, the gap between them and the people they could interact with was limited.
Therefore, he would always forget some things unintentionally.
For example, this place was very large, and the population base was very exaggerated.
When he first rode the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage in the Shu Prefecture,
he realized that the Divine Lands was extremely vast.
Although the geographical division seemed to have some shadow of the old country of the Blue Star in his memory.
However, everything seemed to have been magnified many times.
Back then, when he had taken the time to read the literature and classics, he had lamented the huge population base here.
Only a huge group of secular people could support the huge group of martial artists who did not do anything.
However, perhaps it was because the distance was too far, as though he was looking down at the earth from the clouds, Chen Luoyang rarely felt anything.
Everything was more like a number than billions of lives.
It was only when the Left Sage King Xiuzhe’s Black Death Divine Pearl was in the vast wilderness of the Qian Prefecture, a place that didn’t look like it was inhabited, and when the Dead Sea Black Tide could sweep away tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of lives, that Chen Luoyang had some real feelings.
Now that he heard Situ Qi’s report, he had a different feeling.
It was the same number, but this number shocked him even more.
So many constables of Six Fan School, how many martial artists and how many people were there?
He couldn’t imagine it for a moment.
He even felt that it was ridiculous.
Was there a mistake?
Are you kidding me?
How many demonic sects do I have in total…People …
Sect Master Chen thought about it and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He really didn’t seem to know how many people there were in his Demon Cult.
As far as his eyes could see, there were the Left and Right Envoys, the four Palace Chiefs, the seven Grand Elders, the eight Protectors, and some personal attendants.
Then, elite experts like the four palaces and twenty-eight constellations, or a few incense masters in a branch, would do the same.
At most, they were the people from the Azure Dragon Hall, Dragon Claw and Dragon Scale, whom he had met in the Amrita Manor.
That was about it.
It did not look like much.
But the problem was that he rarely came into contact with the middle-level staff. He had no contact with anyone below that. The number of direct disciples was enormous.
What about the ordinary disciples?
When Zhang Tianheng brought the Dian Province branch to his side, he brought the elites of the elites.
But how many people did his Dian Prefecture branch have?
The more basic the realm, the larger the number of people.
The number of Pre-Sky Realm warriors was 100 times or even 1,000 times more than the number of Xiantian Realm warriors.
After that, there were Grandmasters, Martial Kings, and finally Martial Emperors.
Before the Central Plains joined forces to conquer the Demon Territory, there were a total of nine first-class factions in the Central Plains according to the standards of the Azure Dragon Hall.
It didn’t look like much.
However, when it came to second-grade factions, their numbers immediately increased. There were seven in Shu Prefecture alone, and there were more than a hundred in the entire Central Plains.
There were hundreds and thousands of C-class forces, and tens of thousands of D-class forces.
In fact, there were also various small and medium-sized forces that were affiliated with the Demon Cult on the ground of his Demon Territory.
Situ Qi had opened his mouth to say 13 million people, giving Chen Luoyang a fright.
However, thinking about it carefully, the lowest level of the Pre-Sky Realm martial artists with lower cultivation would definitely have taken away the “1,000” in front and still have a surplus.
Perhaps after taking all the 1,300 yuan, the higher-ups would get the rest.
Sect Master Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
He seemed to have become another type of frog at the bottom of a well.
In other words, the toad in the moon palace didn’t know what kind of world was on the ground.
Speaking of which, he had been traveling on the red dragon for the past few days. His speed was faster than the six flood dragons. In a few days, he had traveled back and forth between the mountains and rivers of the Divine Prefecture and swept across the world. He had no idea about the size and foundation of this world.
He had a good time fighting, but his subordinates had a lot of work to do. Previously, he had read the reports from Chen Chuhua, Su Wei, Xiao Yuntian, and the others. They had mentioned how many servant level forces had submitted to him and followed the scenery.
How many C-class forces were wiped out?
Many second-grade forces took the initiative to surrender.
How many officials and martial artists of the Xia Dynasty had been taken in?
It felt like it would only take a few words.
At that time, he had placed all his attention on killing a few Martial Kings and even Li Yuanlong.
Now that he thought about it, he did not know how many people’s fates had changed along the wav.
If it was so for martial artists, it was even more exaggerated for mortals.
This made Chen Luoyang come back to his senses.
In just a few days, no matter how many people the Demonic Sect had and how efficient they were, it would be difficult for them to truly control these new territories.
It didn’t take long for him to stomp on the ground all the way here. It was because his movement speed was beyond imagination, not because the distance was short.
Completely controlling such a vast land and population for his own use was a slow and long-term effort.
In order to determine the future of the Divine Lands, he would have to fight the
Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng.
It should be said that it was just the beginning.
Situ Qi’s words caused Chen Luoyang’s thoughts to fluctuate.
To be honest, he still felt a little unreal.
This made him feel even more illusory than the power of a Martial Monarch
Realm expert.
Sect Master Chen was too busy daydreaming to say anything.
However, Situ Qi, who was kneeling on one knee, suffered.
It was as if he was kneeling on needles.
The anxiety and uneasiness hidden deep in his heart finally overflowed with words..
