A real Magistrate only cared about the dead, not the living.
Mubai's words made everyone's soul tremble.
They had witnessed Lin Kang's soul being scattered by Mubai into the bottomless abyss behind him.
The abyss was extremely deep, as if there was no end to it. Everyone was afraid of the unknown, of death, and of what would happen after death.
But for some reason, the person standing in front of them seemed to be in charge of everything. He was cloaked in darkness, and he carried the abyss with him as he wandered the mortal world. He put those who belonged to the Demonic Abyss of Hell into it, and then interrogated them for eternity about their past actions, greed, betrayal …
Regardless of whether Mubai's terrifying aura was real or not, he had already killed the Black Magistrate, Lin Kang. It meant there was only one Magistrate in the world!
Not only was he a Magistrate, he was also the commander-in-chief of the Northern City Army. Vice Commander Zhou Yi almost dropped to his knees in front of him. How could a man like him possibly command the Northern City Army?
"I'll bring our men back to the city and report everything to the higher-ups. Lin Kang has disobeyed the orders and mobilized the army without permission. He will be punished!" the major general was panicking. He immediately made his stand clear to Mubai.
Changing the rudder according to the wind.
Who would they listen to after the victory?
Watching the show from the sidelines and making a decision after the outcome?
Mubai did not need people like that. He wanted everyone to have a scale in their hearts. Between conscience and evil, it was better for them to ask themselves which was more important while they were still alive. Otherwise, someone would spend a long time interrogating their souls after they died, and they would be given the appropriate tools to torture them!
The Northern City Army was the main force that had attacked Fanxue Mountain. They were currently being interrogated.
As a matter of fact, Mubai was hoping they could make a wise decision on their own, instead of making the decision for them after he had killed Lin Kang.
Hopefully, some of them had a scale in their hearts. It would not be a waste of the pain and suffering he had put in for the Northern City Army over the years.
The army retreated.
They quickly left Fanxue Mountain. They had already been cursed by the people of the city as soon as they came up the mountain. Their hearts were heavy when they left the mountain.
"We must have disappointed him."
"Sigh, how ungrateful of me. If there really is a Hell, I deserve it," said the Battlemage that Mubai had rescued from the island.
One couldn't do things without a bottom line, because the greatest sin was to abandon the beliefs that one had persisted in at the beginning and fall into the abyss of sin step by step. After getting used to the darkness, one couldn't face the sunlight anymore.
After the Northern Fortress Army left, the number of factions attacking Fanxue Mountain was reduced by half. The pressure that Fanxue Villa was under was significantly reduced!
The people of Fanxue Mountain cheered under the villa. They never thought Mubai would be able to drive back the entire North Gate Army on his own. They did not expect him to be a bandit in the name of the government. Mubai had killed their leader and persuaded a few thousand elites to retreat. His figure was as lofty as a mountain in Fanxue Mountain. How could the people not feel their blood boiling?
"You …"
"How can this be!!"
"Don't go, Fanxue Mountain's time is up. Let's charge forward together!"
The other factions were dumbfounded when they saw the Northern Fortress Army retreating.
They were stuck in a dilemma. They had sent their troops to Fanxue Villa. It was going to be a full-out war. Even if they retreated, Fanxue Mountain would not let them go after they recovered.
However, the Northern Fortress Army was a faction of the north. They were closely related to Fanxue Mountain. If they retreated, wouldn't the war turn into a war between the factions and the clans?
Once the war started, it did not matter if the factions were dead or alive. They deserved it if their factions were wiped out, but they would not be able to clean up the mess!
"A bunch of good-for-nothings, what are you panicking for? Even without the Northern Fortress Army, why should we be afraid of a single Fanxue Mountain when so many factions are working together? I, Zhao Jing, on behalf of the Zhao Clan, will eliminate Fanxue Mountain today! "Zhao Jing yelled and swore an oath.
From the very beginning, Zhao Jing didn't expect the government to send out much power.
He only wanted a reason to convince the other factions to join in the war.
The outcome would still be the same even without Lin Kang and the Northern Fortress Army.
He could not understand why a bunch of people who had received proper education in magic would believe in the Abyss of Hell. Even if there was such a thing, it would only be under the control of someone with the strongest magic in the Dark Realm. How could a mere mortal like him possess a real Abyss of Darkness? It was a kind of Dark Magic!
As someone who was working toward becoming a Forbidden Mage, Zhao Jing did not believe Mu Bai had the ability to trick him. He had only used some strange spells to kill Lin Kang. However, they were all Forbidden Spells in front of the highest level of the Magic Element. They were not worthy of being mentioned in the sacred hall of magic!
"I'll eliminate you first. Stop pretending to be a swindler!" Zhao Jing immediately flew forward. Red Ferocious Lightning Dragons were circling around him. He had the aura of a Son of Lightning!
Mubai's eyes turned cloudy once again. The abyss behind him appeared layer by layer. There were bloody scars in the distance, like terrifying canyons that gradually materialized!
Suddenly, a hand patted Mubai on the shoulder.
Mubai turned around. He was shocked. Who could pass through his abyss and silently stand behind him?
"Mofan?" Mubai was confused when he saw the person behind him.
"Don't fall too deep. Let me handle this Zhao Jing … It's not a bad thing to live a few more years and enjoy life. Why do you have to work for that guy so early?" Mofan said to Mubai.
Mubai's eyes and complexion slowly returned to normal.
"This guy is very strong. Be careful," Mubai warned Mofan again.
Zhao Jing's strength …
Even Mubai would have a hard time carrying the Abyss Stele. After all, Zhao Jing was Zhao Jing, not someone like Lin Kang.
"Don't worry. I left something to deal with the Sharkman Chief that day. I don't need to keep it today," Mofan said.
"That's good. Call me if anything happens. I'll rest for a while," Mubai nodded.
Mubai had used a lot of soul force to defeat Lin Kang, who was much stronger than him.
"It's fine. There's still Old Zhao," Mofan said.
Mubai glanced at Zhao Manyan. He discovered that Zhao Manyan was still fighting with the trash from the Divine Hunters.
With his strength, dealing with those people was a piece of cake. He probably didn't want to stand out and carry the banner, so he was purposely playing with the Divine Hunters …
