Chapter 342: The Martial Sage Is Unjust!
Su Jingxing carefully comprehended this sanctification technique.
He realized that even with the power of the Yu Nation’s fate, it would still take three to five months before he could finally complete the transformation of his physical body.
A complete from transformation, from a mortal to a Transcendent-grade martial artist.
With such a long time, Su Jingxing decided to put it aside for now and settle the Xia Family first.
Now that Xia Shigai was dead, be it Glutton or the Xia Family in the capital, there would be many future troubles.
!!
Su Jingxing had only killed most of the members of Glutton, not all.
Such an ancient organization would never be fully eliminated.
They were present in all 13 nations of the Eastern Continent.
Even in the Western Continent, on the subcontinent, there were also people from organizations like Gourmand, Glutton, and Ghost Ride.
As one of the leaders of Glutton, Xia Shigai’s status was extraordinary.
Only, Glutton never had a fixed base. Otherwise, Su Jingxing could have uprooted them in one go.
…
Before the sky turned dark, Su Jingxing decided to cultivate the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book first.
The thread of nation’s fate returned to normal. Using the Martial Arts Practice Card, Su Jingxing quickly reached the introductory stage.
Then, he unlocked one Martial Arts Practice Card after another. He spent a total of 30 years of practice time and cultivated the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book to the Peak of Perfection.
At this level, Su Jingxing did not need to sense the fate of the Yu Nation through the Six Comets Records to be able to mobilize it to fight.
As long as he was in the Yu Nation, the fate of the Yu Nation would be at his disposal.
Of course, there was a limit to the amount he could use.
After all, it was the fate of the nation. It did not matter if he borrowed a small portion of it, but he mobilized too much, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods, droughts, storms, and other disasters would instantly occur.
Therefore, Su Jingxing silently calculated the data of the limits according to the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book and memorized it.
This numbers were not fixed. When the Yu Nation’s strength increased, it would also increase.
The Emperor Chu’s Jade Book itself meant that the stronger the country, the stronger the power it could unleash.
As for the current strength of the Yu Nation, he could use this opportunity of destroying the Xia Family to test it out.
Therefore, when night fell, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul descended from the Void World.
His first target was the Changyang Prefecture City.
The barbarians controlled by the Xia Family were held in a total of three strongholds in Changyang Prefecture.
Those in Qinghe City were cleared. In the Changyang Prefecture City, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul took advantage of the night to descend from the sky. It found the right location and locked onto his target with its semi x-ray vision.
The invisible and intangible thread of the nation’s fate was silently guided, coiling around and controlled by Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul.
Using the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book, a huge hand of fate quickly condensed in the night.
When the martial artists in the top ranks in the city sensed that something was wrong with the surroundings——
Boom!
A huge hand of fate descended from the sky and covered the barbarian’s hiding spot.
In just an instant, the terrifying power crushed the barbarians and martial artists who stayed behind in the stronghold into mush.
[Card+96]
The notification flashed past. Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul stood in the air and scanned the stronghold with its semi x-ray vision. After making sure that it did not miss anything, it turned around and left.
The Essence Soul crossed through the s.p.a.ce and headed to the next stronghold. It also used the giant hand of fate to destroy everyone and extracted 88 cards.
Changyang Prefecture was settled.
The next prefecture, Dashun Prefecture.
The Essence Soul arrived crossing through s.p.a.ce and looked down from above. It circulated the Emperor Chu’s Jade Book and condensed an invisible hand of fate. It destroyed two strongholds and obtained 169 cards.
The next prefecture, Baiyin Prefecture.
Boom! Boom!
[Card+153]
The next prefecture, Sifang Prefecture.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
[Card+226]
The next prefecture, Qiannan Prefecture.
Boom!
…
Luori Prefecture, Daqin Prefecture, Baolai Prefecture, Baoyi Prefecture, Wulong Prefecture…
From north to west, then south, then east, and finally back to the center, the Fulong Prefecture where the capital was located.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul crossed s.p.a.ce and slaughtered its way over.
It was fast enough. Among the 18 prefectures, other than the final Fulong Prefecture, it only took it about half an hour to go around the other 17 prefectures.
An average of about two minutes to take care of one prefecture.
However, a huge commotion were caused in some strongholds after they were destroyed as they were within the city.
The Xia Family in the capital still received the news.
They reacted equally quickly. In their fear, they quickly started live broadcasts on the television stations and the Internet.
“This is murder! Blatant murder!”
“A Martial Sage protects the people, it is a guardian of the nation who suppresses foreign species, not a slaughterer!”
“For hundreds of years, the Xia Family has devote itself entirely to the Yu Nation. Countless people have died or were injured. Even if we have not performed meritorious deeds, we have worked hard.
“Our hard work shouldn’t be erased. The new Martial Sage can’t treat us like this!”
“It’s easy to kill us, and we’re do not fear death, but we’re not willing to die so pointlessly!”
“The new Martial Sages is being unjust!”
“The Xia Family is indignant!!!”
The Xia Family panicked.
They were completely fl.u.s.tered.
They did not know what had gone wrong. The strongholds scattered in the various prefectures were actually known by the newly-advanced Martial Sage and they were all uprooted.
In half an hour, all the strongholds were wiped out.
It was obvious that the new Martial Sages want to eradicate them.
No one wanted to die. No one in the Xia Family wanted to die.
However, they knew their own business. Since the new Martial Sage had removed the strongholds, he clearly knew about their doings.
Colluding with the Xiang Family of New Chu and manipulating the barbarians to harm the Yu Nation in an attempt to stir up chaos and regain power.
This was a serious crime, a capital crime that warranted confiscation and extermination.
As for other crimes, they became unimportant compared to treason.
Even the newly-advanced Martial Sage had come knocking on their door.
Before today, most people in the Xia Family had believed that the new Martial Sage had relied on their ancestor to become a Martial Sage. They felt that they could continue to enjoy their superior quality of life and do whatever they wanted.
Now that the matter was exposed, they realized that the new Martial Sage did not rely on their ancestor at all.
If the Martial Sage wanted to kill them, they could not escape.
The only way was to rope in the citizens and pretend to be the victim.
The people were blind. If manipulated well, they would be the easiest to deceive.
On television, on the Internet, and on the screens in the open-air squares, the Xia Family complained and aired their grievances through the various channels.
As expected, the capital was in an uproar, the Fulong Prefecture was shaken, and the entire Yu Nation was stirred.
“A Martial Sage is being unjust? What’s going on? What exactly is going on?”
“I don’t know. Who are the people shouting? What happened to them?”
“It’s the Xia Family! They are one of the five major martial arts families in the Yu Nation, the former imperial family! Tsk tsk, the Xia Family has actually been targeted by the new Martial Sage. From what they said, it seems like the new Martial Sage wants to kill them?”
“Huh? The new Martial Sage wants to kill members of the imperial family? Aren’t they one family?”
“Who told you that the new Martial Sage comes from the imperial family? The imperial Xia Family is no longer the imperial family from more than a hundred years ago, okay? The current Xia Family is notorious in places like the Fulong Prefecture, the Bapzhen Prefecture, and the Chongming Prefecture. They are ferocious, domineering, sinister, and vicious. They have done countless evil deeds. The current Xia Family does not have the grace and n.o.bility of the imperial family of the past at all.”
“That’s right. The Xia Family should have been wiped out long ago. Good job by the new Martial Sage!”
“Um, you guys are too much. Even if the Xia Family has done bad things, they shouldn’t be annihilated, because they have indeed contributed to the Yu Nation, let alone having a Martial Sage personally taking action.”
“That’s right. A Martial Sage is a guardian, not a slaughterer!”
