Kill the last person.
Today was destined to be recorded in the annals of Liuyun.
Wu Jing Xue led millions of soldiers to besiege the Imperial City and eliminate the dissidents. His methods were ruthless and overbearing, making everyone tremble in fear.
However, it was precisely such a powerful person who had been defeated at Heaven's Equal Peak. Not only had he been suppressed by Chu Xingyun, even the three thousand Jingtian Army that he had painstakingly raised, as well as the leaders of the forces under his command, had all been killed.
This massacre was too shocking. The blood could be gathered into a river and the corpses could be piled up like a mountain. The entire Imperial City was shrouded in a desolate and sorrowful atmosphere.
On the Qitian Peak, the last trace of Immortal Qi had completely disappeared. However, the massacre did not stop. There were still mournful screams that echoed clearly in everyone's ears.
Wu Jing Xue was in the lightning cage. His spiritual energy was like a flood dragon, resisting the attack of the lightning. Not far from him, Chu Xingyun stood there, but he did not look at him. He raised his head and looked at the last ray of the setting sun. His eyes shone with a deep light.
"Do you regret it?"
Looking at the red clouds in the sky, Chu Xingyun suddenly said, "Seventeen years ago, if you did not rely on the Ancient Star Sect and commit so many massacres, I'm afraid that today, you would not have come to this."
Wu Jing Xue was silent for a moment. Then, he smiled and said, "I, Wu Jing Xue, have never regretted my actions. Even if I had to choose again, I would still submit to the Ancient Star Sect and attack your Chu family."
"Hmm?"
Hearing Wu Jing Xue's words, Chu Xingyun was surprised. Even the crowd turned their heads and looked in front of them in surprise. Wu Jing Xue had fallen to this state, but he did not regret it?
"I, Wu Jing Xue, joined the army when I was young. I spent half of my life on the battlefield and killed countless people. In my eyes, strength is the most important thing. Those who have strong strength have the world. No one can disobey their orders."
"Back then, my strength was weak. Even if I entered the Ancient Mystery Land, I couldn't obtain the inheritance. Just as I was about to give up, the appearance of the Ancient Star Sect gave me a glimmer of hope. Hence, I was willing to become their minion and kill wantonly and bring disaster to the Empire, just to obtain the inheritance and increase my strength."
Wu Jingxue's voice was impassioned, and there was a trace of passion in it.
"Seventeen years ago, if I did not submit to the Ancient Star Sect, I would not be able to improve... and I would be a coward, I would die in the frontier and be forgotten. of... So, why should I regret it?"
"What a load of nonsense!"
Tang Yue, the Third Prince, was furious. He shouted, "Wu Jing Xue, for your own selfish interests, you did not hesitate to slaughter the kingdom, burn the city, and kill the people. Even the Liuyun Dynasty almost fell into your hands. Now, you are still speaking righteously. You are really shameless!"
After he finished speaking, many people nodded repeatedly.
If the Driftcloud Empire ended up under Wu Jingxue's rule, even more people would die, and even more people would be separated from their families. Even imagining such a tragic scene was unbearable.
"The path of the strong is full of killing. On this path, the strong live and the weak die. There is no right or wrong!" Wu Jing Xue's cold eyes narrowed. He was not afraid of the cold eyes of Tang Yue and the others.
His gaze swept across the crowd, taking in everyone's faces. He shouted loudly, "Don't forget that today, you have also committed many sins of slaughter. You have also slaughtered over a hundred thousand people. Could it be that the reason for your actions is for the sake of the common people?"
"It is exactly as Chu Xingyun said. In one's life, there are a lot of choices. For the sake of imperial power, for the sake of your lives, you all wantonly massacred. You wanted to surround and kill me here. As for me, for the sake of strength, for the sake of the peak of martial arts, I unceasingly massacred, unceasingly proclaimed myself as the ruler."
"Different choices lead to different paths. What right do you have to judge the right and wrong of them?!"
His thunderous voice reverberated in everyone's minds, causing shock to rise in many people's eyes.
There was no right or wrong in this world.
For power, Wu Jing Xue was willing to submit to the Ancient Star Sect. He was willing to slaughter millions of people and even be devoured by the evil spirit and become a mindless killer.
All of this was for power and to become a strong person.
Even if everyone in the world spurned him, even if countless people chased after him, even if he ended up being smashed to pieces, he would still not regret it.
Because it was right in his heart!
"Chu Xingyun."
Wu Jing Xue looked over at Chu Xingyun. He said in a deep voice, "Your plan and means are extraordinary. I, Wu Jing Xue, have no complaints about being defeated by you. However, if you want me to repent for what happened in the past and count my sins, you will never get what you want."
"I, Wu Jing Xue, can be defeated, can die, can be humiliated, but I will never change my mind. The path of the strong is my path. Even if I reincarnate and die, I will never change it."
At this point, Wu Jingxue raised his head and looked at the scorching sun in the west. He recited in a loud voice: "A man should pursue the path of the strong in his life. I, Wu Jingxue, was forty-eight years old. I entered the path of cultivation through killing. My immortal legacy is all about killing. Anyone who tries to stop me will be killed. Anyone who tries to stop me will be annihilated. Even the gods and Buddhas in the heavens and the devils of the ten earths won't be able to stop me. With my halberd in hand, I will kill until the heaven and earth trembles and the devils wail."
"Today, I led an army to wreak havoc in the Imperial City and killed millions of people. With the Extreme Evil Qi as the source, I devoured the endless Evil Qi. I was only one step away from transforming into a dragon and becoming the supreme Martial Emperor. Unfortunately, I was unable to fulfill my wish!"
Wu Jing Xue was full of energy as if he was talking about his life. Everyone stood still and stared at this iron-blooded figure. Deep in their hearts, there was some admiration.
Mowang Gong and Lin Tianchong stood behind the crowd and listened quietly. They felt a resonance in their hearts. They lowered their heads and sighed.
As for Chu Xingyun, he stood in front of Wu Jing Xue. His eyes were as black as ink. He seemed to be lost in his memories and did not speak for a long time.
"Forget it, forget it!"
Wu Jing Xue spoke again. The regret on his face disappeared and was replaced by a heroic spirit. He looked into the distance and saw the Imperial City. He said loudly, "Today, I will kill the last person!"
Buzz!
In the void, the Heavenly Halberd trembled. The black light broke through the gap, and with a muffled sound, it pierced Wu Jing Xue's chest and extinguished the last trace of life.
The setting sun was as red as blood.
In the void above the Qitian Peak, a few drops of blood dripped down.
A corpse slowly fell to the ground under the setting sun. With a low sound, the corpse kicked up a few clouds of dust on the ground. After that, there was no more sound.
Below, everyone saw this scene. Even when Wu Jing Xue's corpse fell to the ground, they still did not come to their senses. They were still in shock.
