Just when the deacons, disciples, and guards were feeling proud and excited.
Shang Yunqi, who was at the front of the crowd, suddenly bowed deeply to Ji Tianxing.
He lowered his head and suppressed the great humiliation and anger, and said in a trembling voice, "Young Master Tianxing, I admit defeat!
Although it is said that you are cruel, bloodthirsty, and evil, I believe in you.
However, I believe in my own judgment. I definitely won't misjudge someone.
A peerless expert with such outstanding talent and tyrannical strength like you must have the demeanor and bearing of an expert.
I am willing to admit defeat on the spot. I only beg you to let these innocent disciples and guards go, and let the He Tian Sect live! "
Although Shang Yunqi's voice was not loud, it spread clearly throughout the island.
At that instant, over seven hundred disciples and guards were stunned on the spot as if they had been petrified.
Even the six thousand plus disciples, guards, and odd-job workers who were hurrying over a few dozen kilometers away stopped in their tracks.
Everyone's faces were filled with astonishment. They thought they had misheard.
Everyone could not believe that the Deputy Sect Leader, who had always been high and mighty, actually … actually surrendered to the enemy!
Moreover, the Deputy Sect Leader wanted to commit suicide on the spot in exchange for the lives of everyone and preserve the foundation of the He Tian Sect!
This … this was simply unbelievable!
If they did not hear it with their own ears, they would never believe that these words came from the Deputy Sect Leader's mouth!
At this moment, it was not only Shang Yunqi's shame.
Countless disciples, guards, and handymen of the He Tian Sect, a total of more than 10,000 people, felt extremely humiliated and angry!
So.
After everyone came to their senses, they immediately burst into earth-shattering shouts.
Countless disciples and guards desperately tried to persuade and stop Shang Yunqi.
"Deputy Sect Leader! Why did you surrender to the thief? "
"Didn't we say that we would rather die standing than live kneeling?"
"Deputy Sect Leader! We can still fight, please don't surrender! "
"We would rather fight to the death with the enemy than surrender in humiliation!"
"My life was given by the He Tian Sect. Today, I will return it to the He Tian Sect. Please allow me to fight!"
"I will also fight to the last moment, and live and die with the sect!"
"Deputy Sect Leader, how can you surrender? Where is the dignity and backbone of our sect? "
Not only the disciples, but the three surviving deacons were also agitated and tried to dissuade Shang Yunqi.
However, Shang Yunqi remained unmoved and continued to maintain a bowing posture.
The commotion became more and more ferocious. More than six thousand disciples and odd-job workers arrived, and the scene became even more chaotic.
The discussions and dissuasion of thousands of people converged into a huge sound wave torrent that was deafening.
Seeing this, Shang Yunqi decisively shouted angrily, "Silence! Everyone should be quiet. Where is the decency? "
The dignified and oppressive sound waves enveloped the entire island.
Everyone shut their mouths, and the night sky quieted down.
Shang Yunqi then looked at Ji Tianxing and earnestly said, "Young Master Tianxing, you and Grand Prince Lian have a deep enmity that will not end until one of you is dead.
Prince Lian is the head disciple of our sect, so it's reasonable for you to deal with our sect.
However, this is between you, Prince Lian, and us. Please do not involve the innocent disciples and odd-job workers.
I also understand that you want to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots to prevent future trouble. This is human nature.
However, you are a top expert, and only the top Divine Lords are worthy of being your opponent.
These ten thousand disciples, odd-job workers, and servants are all old, weak, sick, and disabled. They pose no threat to you at all.
You are a top expert, don't tell me you don't even have this little bit of tolerance?
Young Master Tianxing, please be merciful and allow me to kill myself on the spot, and you can leave now.
Young Master, please grant my wish! "
Shang Yunqi's tone was very sincere, and he bowed deeply after speaking.
The six thousand disciples, guards, and odd-job workers no longer clamored, discussed, or dissuaded him.
No matter how stupid they were, they understood the deputy sect leader's good intentions.
Sacrificing him in exchange for the survival of more than ten thousand people and preserving the foundation of the He Tian Sect.
This was definitely a great profit!
As long as everyone was still alive, the He Tian Sect still existed, and the He Tian Sect would not perish.
In the future, when the sect leader, grand elder, and the elites of the sect returned, the He Tian Sect would be able to recover to its peak!
In fact, the Sect Leader and Grand Supreme Elder could even kill Tian Xing to avenge those who had died!
Thinking of this, everyone fell silent.
Everyone looked at Shang Yunqi with eyes full of gratitude and admiration.
However.
Shang Yunqi's idea was good, but the decision was not in his hands.
Everyone's eyes gathered on Ji Tianxing, waiting for his decision.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, Ji Tianxing stared at Shang Yunqi indifferently, and said in a cold tone, "Shang Yunqi, you are indeed a cunning old fox. You know how to choose and weigh the pros and cons.
That's right! I came today with no intention of letting you go. You will undoubtedly die!
But you know that if you fight to the end, the He Tian Sect will be completely wiped out, and the mountain will no longer exist.
At that time, you and Prince Lian will be the sinners who caused the destruction of the He Tian Sect, and you will go down in history in infamy!
Therefore, you choose to kill yourself on the spot.
Not only can you save everyone's lives and the He Tian Sect's foundation, but you can also win a good reputation … You are really calculating. "
Ji Tianxing exposed Shang Yunqi's thoughts, but Shang Yunqi did not refute.
He bowed again and said in a sincere tone, "Young Master Tianxing, please be magnanimous and grant me my wish!"
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly. His lips curled into a cold smile as he said, "Good! I can grant you your wish and allow you to kill yourself on the spot.
However, you have to hand over Prince Lian or tell me his whereabouts.
Otherwise, I will still kill everyone here, destroy this island, and erase the name of the Heavenly Sect from existence! "
Ji Tianxing had already expected that Prince Lian might not be here.
After such a long battle and such a big commotion, Prince Lian would have appeared if he was in the sect.
As expected.
Shang Yunqi hesitated for a moment before saying in a trembling voice, "With your strength and means, you will definitely be a top expert in the Great Yan Empire in the future … I will believe you this time!
Prince Lian did not return to the Thousand Sun Lake, nor is he in the sect.
The last time I contacted him was three days ago.
He said in the jade slip that the sect's defense is weak and might not be able to withstand your attack.
Therefore, he will not return to the sect. He will find another place to hide.
That's all I know. "
Ji Tianxing immediately frowned and sneered disdainfully. "Shang Yunqi, do you still dare to hide the truth from me?
I will give you one last chance. You know what I mean! "
Shang Yunqi's expression changed, and he frowned deeply. His eyes were filled with melancholy and struggle.
Although what he said was the truth, he did have some reservations and didn't reveal everything.
Since Ji Tianxing was so shrewd, he could not hide it anymore. He could only send a voice transmission. "Young Master Tianxing, I really don't know where Prince Lian is.
He is very cautious. How can he tell me this secret that concerns his life?
However, I can tell you that he only has three choices now … "
