Within a day, the Northern Region army had killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Eight Sect Alliance.
Hundreds of thousands of corpses had dyed the entire Black Tortoise Fury River red, and hundreds of thousands of corpses were burning in the raging fire.
No one could answer Prince Namgong's question. Did war have to be like this?
Lin Yun could not answer. He did not even turn around to look at the raging fire, but he could feel the scorching heat on his back.
Lin Yun looked into the distance. War had never had a true definition.
At this moment, Hu Heixin had already led ten thousand light cavalry to their destination. This was the sect of Big Beard Zhang — Tai Liang Sect.
The scene in front of him made Hu Heixin stop marching forward.
"General Hu! These bastards are too inhumane! "
"General, what should we do next?"
When this scene appeared in front of the soldiers, everyone snorted, showing great disdain and even extreme disgust.
Hu Heixin frowned. He looked at the soldiers in gorgeous armor on the city gate, and there was a rage burning in his heart.
There were thousands of soldiers standing on the city gate. These were the remaining disciples and deacon elders of Tai Liang Sect. Standing at the front was a short, wretched-looking middle-aged man.
This man was the Vice Sect Leader of Tai Liang Sect, and his strength was Level Four Wu Huang.
After the Northern Region army had conquered the Eight Sect Alliance's army, every sect had received the news.
In order to facilitate communication, the eight sects had set up hundreds of relay stations between them, so that the news could be transmitted at the first instance.
After the Vice Sect Leader knew that the Eight Sect Alliance's army had been defeated, he immediately understood that the Northern Region army's next step was to seize their eight sects.
He immediately gathered all the elderly, women, and children in the city, and formed a human wall, blocking the city gate.
At this moment, what Hu Heixin's army saw were those tens of thousands of elderly, women, and children. They trembled, with fear in their eyes, standing in front of the Tai Liang Sect's soldiers, forming a huge human shield.
"Shameless! Despicable! "Hu Hei Xin spat out a mouthful of saliva, looking down on Tai Liang Sect.
"Vice Sect Leader's plan is indeed impressive!" Standing beside the Vice Sect Leader was another young man, who was also an Elder of the Tai Liang Sect. At that moment, he spoke politely.
After all, they all understood that if Sect Master Zhang was captured, if he was not killed, then he would be surrendered to the Northern Domain. In the future, the Tai Liang Sect would probably be under the control of the Vice Sect Master alone.
"General Hu! Please give the order! "The adjutant walked in front of Hu Heixin, cupped his hands, and requested for Hu Heixin to give the order.
Hu Heixin glared at the Vice Sect Leader and hesitated to give the order.
Although Lin Yun had already said that in this war, be it ordinary people or martial artists, they would all be killed.
However, in the face of more than 10,000 elderly, women, and children, Hu Heixin still hesitated.
Gusts of chilly wind blew past, causing the corners of everyone's clothes to flutter.
The elderly, women, and children shivered in the chilly wind, fearing that Hu Heixin would not care about their lives and would trample over them.
The Vice Sect Leader looked complacent and seemed to be very satisfied with his plan.
Hu Heixin's face was full of anger, ashamed of the inhumane practice of the Tai Liang Sect.
The two sides had been in a stalemate, and the scouts brought the news that the other armies had captured all the other seven sects.
Now, the only one that had not been captured was the Tai Liang Sect in front of him.
Just as Hu Heixin hesitated whether to march, a blue energy ball suddenly appeared in mid-air, like a meteor falling, and blasted towards the group of elderly, women, and children.
No one reacted. Even some people who were Wu Huang did not feel the aura of this blue energy ball when it condensed.
They only felt a beautiful blue light flash in their eyes, and then there was an earth-shattering explosion.
Boom — —!
An earth-shattering explosion, tens of thousands of elderly, women, and children, including the soldiers hiding behind them, gradually disappeared in the fire.
Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at this scene in disbelief.
A mushroom cloud thousands of meters high shrouded the sky above the Tai Liang Sect.
Like a nightmare, it announced that these ten thousand people were all dead.
"This …" Hu Heixin's eyes were dull, and he almost fell off the horse.
He knew the origin of this blue energy ball. He had seen it before. Even Wu Huang was destroyed in this blue energy ball, not to mention these powerless elderly, women, and children.
"Why …" When Hu Heixin saw the figure floating in mid-air, he was furious. Just as he was about to question the figure, a hand was gently placed on his shoulder.
Hu Heixin turned around and found that Yasuo was standing behind him, shaking his head at him with a cold face.
"That's more than ten thousand lives!" Hu Heixin was still not convinced. He did not understand why Lin Yun could be so cruel and merciless. More than ten thousand elderly, women, and children were all killed without saying a word.
"Hu Heixin, what are you waiting for?" At this time, Lin Yun's extremely cold voice sounded in Hu Heixin's ears.
Hu Heixin gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do in his heart. He ordered coldly, "Attack the city! Leave no one alive! Kill them all for this daddy! "
The mighty ten thousand light cavalry, like bandits, rushed into the Tai Liang Sect.
In the explosion of the 'Wind-thunder Flame Bomb', the entire city gate of the Tai Liang Sect was blown up. Now the soldiers of the Tai Liang Sect had not reacted at all.
"It's you! I'll kill you! " Hu Heixin slapped his horse and stood up. The tiger hair all over his body stood up, and his eyes were bloodshot. He aimed his tiger claws at the Vice Suzerain of the Tai Liang City, wanting to vent all his anger on him.
The Vice Suzerain was so shocked that he did not dare to face Hu Heixin at all. He pulled the young Elder beside him in front of him.
Then he slapped his back, pushed him towards Hu Heixin, and turned around to run.
Lin Yun slowly descended from mid-air, stood beside the big pit that was blasted by the Wind-thunder Flame Bomb, and looked at the ashes inside.
A few seconds ago, these ashes were still living people.
Yasuo followed beside Lin Yun and did not ask anything at this moment.
Lin Yun was a little sad in his heart. Killing hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Eight-City Alliance Army and killing more than ten thousand civilians were actually different.
As a soldier, he naturally had to be prepared to die on the battlefield.
But this group of elderly, women, and children were innocent.
"War has always been like this." At this moment, Lin Yun answered the question that Prince Namgong asked him not long ago.
With the fall of the last sect, the Tai Liang Sect, the battle of 'Nujiang' also ended.
The remaining dozens of cities managed by the eight sects were also turned into ruins under the attack of the Northern Region Army.
The Northern Region Army stationed majestically on the grassland plains. Everyone knew that the war was not over, but just the beginning.
