"What? He's … He's Ye Tianze?"
"Impossible. Ye Tianze is so ugly. How can he be Ye Tianze? He's so handsome."
"He's so young. I thought Ye Tianze was a monster who had lived for at least a hundred years."
"He actually dared to come to Four Corner City. He actually came … He actually came …"
Under the cover of the night, everyone was afraid. They all thought Ye Tianze wouldn't come. At most, he would attack Acheron's stronghold from the outside.
But they didn't expect this person to come.
Facing Ye Tianze, the city guards with the Black Sun emblem of the Night Worship Sect on their robes lost their earlier arrogance.
The person in front of them was not the one on the notice, the one who looked repulsive and whom they could point at as they pleased.
This was a young man who had just killed his way to Four Corner City from the west, killing seventeen cities.
They were afraid of Acheron, of the Night Worship Cult, and of the night. But this young man wasn't afraid. At least, they didn't see any fear in his eyes.
"What are you waiting for?" Ye Tianze said. "Didn't you want to kill me? Do it! "
"This …" The city guards had been thinking about finding Ye Tianze all the time so that they could claim credit from the Night Worship Cult.
But when Ye Tianze stood in front of them, they didn't even have the courage to look him in the eye.
The tens of thousands of mortals who were waiting to enter the city were frightened by this scene. This was different from the "demon" they imagined.
"You don't dare to do it?" Ye Tianze glanced at them. "Fine, I'll give you a choice. Either you erase the emblem of the Night Worship Cult from your body, or … I'll kill all of you!"
"You … Why do you have to force us? We have no choice. Who can escape under the night sky? We … We're not you!"
The leader of the city guards said.
"You want to tell me that you have old and young, and that you have families and businesses?" Ye Tianze said with a smile. "I'm sorry, but that's not a reason for you to betray your tribe."
"We didn't betray our tribe, we just … we just joined the Baiye Cult!" said the leader of the city guards.
"You should be loyal to the Human Sovereign first, not the Night Worshipping Cult. Betraying the Human Sovereign and joining the Night Worshipping Cult is betrayal."
Ye Tianze said, "This is your second chance. Either you choose to side with the Night Worship Cult, or you choose to side with the Emperor."
"We …" A murderous glint flashed across the eyes of the leader of the city guards. "Of course we'll choose the Night Worship Cult. Under the night sky, no one is spared. Since you dared to come here today, you're destined to die. You …"
"Yes!"
With a flash of the blade, the head fell to the ground. Ye Tianze glanced at the rest of the city guards and saw the murderous intent in their eyes. He raised the blade in his hand and slashed down without hesitation.
More than a dozen city guards were all killed by him at the city gates. His heart didn't waver in the slightest as he slowly walked into Four Corner City.
The tens of thousands of mortals outside the city gates were dumbfounded by this scene. It wasn't until a long time after Ye Tianze entered the city that they finally reacted.
"He really … came." The crowd couldn't believe it. A single person against an entire city? This was something they didn't even dare to imagine.
For a moment, they felt a glimmer of hope in their hearts. It was a glimmer of hope born under the fear of the night sky.
"So … he … he's … Ye Tianze." The merchant wiped the cold sweat off his face. "No wonder he said those words."
Ye Tianze walked into Four Corner City and was blocked by hundreds of cultivators. The leader was a young man at the peak of the immortal realm.
"Ye Tianze?" The young man in the lead asked.
The bustling streets of Four Corner City immediately quieted down. Both sides of the street were filled with people hiding and spying.
"Yes." Ye Tianze replied.
"Listen carefully. The person who will take your worthless life is a disciple of the Sky Yuan Sect, Zhou Feng." The young man said, "You must remember this well."
"Oh." Ye Tianze didn't even look at him as he slowly walked towards the hundreds of cultivators.
"What do you mean by this? How dare you look down on me. Do you think …" Zhou Feng's expression was ugly. He felt that he was being looked down upon.
He had rushed over with his men as soon as he received the news. Naturally, he wanted to take the credit. He didn't expect that Ye Tianze really didn't even look at him. This made him feel extremely humiliated.
But before he could finish his second sentence, he felt a sharp pain in his neck. Ye Tianze had disappeared before his eyes.
Then, he heard the sound of fighting behind him. He turned around and felt the world spinning. Only then did he realize that his head had been moved.
At the last moment before he lost consciousness, he heard a sentence, "It doesn't matter to me what your name is. It doesn't matter to me what your name is. What matters is that you are blocking my way. You have that eyesore pattern on your body!"
If there was a medicine for regret in this world, Zhou Feng would definitely take it. The cultivators who came with him would definitely take it too.
After a while, hundreds of cultivators were lying in pools of blood. Ye Tianze held his saber and walked into the city without looking back. The road under his feet was already dyed red with blood.
The people in the houses on both sides were stunned. This seemed to be a little different from what they had imagined.
At the same time, in the City Lord's Mansion.
"Lord, Ye Tianze … Ye Tianze is here!" The purple-masked assassin hurried over.
"Huh?" The black-masked assassin was confused. "Where is he hiding?"
"Hiding?" The purple-masked assassin shook his head and said, "No, he … he didn't hide. He … walked in through the West Gate openly."
"Walked in through the West Gate?" The black-masked assassin asked with a cold face, "A bunch of good-for-nothings. Didn't anyone stop him? Are the people of those forces in the city all useless? "
"We did, but … we couldn't stop him."
The purple-masked assassin said, "He killed his way in from the city gate and has already killed a thousand cultivators. These … these are all people who are blocking his way. Among them, there are hundreds of King Realm cultivators, dozens of Immortal Realm cultivators, and … and an Earth Realm cultivator. He … he is walking towards the City Lord's Mansion!"
The black-masked assassin's face was livid. He asked again, "How many people did he bring with him?"
"One … one person!" The purple-masked assassin said.
"One person!!!" The black-masked assassin finally understood why the purple-masked assassin had such an expression.
At this moment, a voice came from outside. "Is there anyone alive inside? If there's anyone alive, come out and say something. "
The black-masked assassin knew that it was Ye Tianze's voice when he heard it. He was furious. "I thought that he would come to save Ding Yue the day after tomorrow when we execute him. It seems that I miscalculated. Since he's in such a hurry, he can't blame me. Immediately summon the people from the major forces. Even if we have to destroy Four Corner City, we have to cut him into pieces. Don't let him live!"
The purple-masked assassin left immediately.
Ye Tianze stood in the City Lord's Mansion. Since the city guards had become members of the Night Worshipping Cult, the Night Worshipping Cult's headquarters must be in the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as he shouted, a group of experts wearing Daoist robes embroidered with black suns appeared. They were all Earth Realm cultivators, and there were as many as twelve of them.
The leader was a purple-masked assassin who had not surpassed the Earth Realm and entered the Heaven Realm.
His killing spree from the West Gate had alarmed the entire city. Because of the execution of Ding Yue, more than half of the Eastern Region's experts had gathered here.
Those who were eager to stand out were all killed by Ye Tianze, but this was only a small portion. Ye Tianze could feel that there were countless people watching him. These people's auras were very powerful, but they had no intention of making a move.
Ye Tianze knew that they were waiting for the result of today's battle.
"He's so stupid to come to Four Corner City alone."
"As expected of the person who fought the Wu people alone and beat the Wu people to a pulp. Unfortunately, sometimes courage is useless. You need brains."
"I'm afraid he won't be able to walk out of Four Corner City alive. Even if we don't make a move, the Night Worshipping Cult still has twelve Earth Realm cultivators, not to mention that Acheron's assassin is hiding behind them."
They admired Ye Tianze's courage, but also felt that he was very stupid. Because stepping into this place meant that he would not be able to leave alive.
"I know that many of you think that I won't dare to come, but I'm here."
Ye Tianze opened his mouth. His voice was like thunder that resounded in Four Corner City.
"I also know that when I come, you will think that I'm stupid. Because in your eyes, it's impossible for me to walk out of Four Corner City," Ye Tianze said again.
"You even think that I'm a person who wants to play the role of the light in the night."
Ye Tianze muttered to himself, "Unfortunately, I'm not the light in your hearts. I'm just a person who you think I won't dare to come, but I'm here. I'm a person who will kill you if you block my way. I'm just a person who will live and die standing."
Ye Tianze's voice was like thunder that resounded in the ears of those who were watching.
Those who heard these words knew that these words were directed at them, but they were not moved at all.
"My path is the same as before!"
Ye Tianze said, "So, you must make a choice today. Either you stand on my side or the Night Worshipping Cult's side. There is no third path."
The leader of the purple-masked assassins didn't even have time to speak. He didn't expect Ye Tianze to say so much first. This made him a little speechless.
Who was the master of this place? Who was the one who fell into the trap?
The people around him were all in disbelief when they heard his words.
"This guy is crazy. He can't even save himself, but he wants to drag us down with him?"
"I think he's not just crazy. He's lost his mind. Why doesn't he look at his own situation? How dare he ask us to make a choice? Who does he think he is?"
"Hahaha, so this guy is such a fool. No wonder he came to Four Corner City. He's from the Judicial Department."
