Beggings for mercy spread in the square. However, Ghost Elder didn’t even look at them. Instead, he gazed at those forty men who were still standing upright and asked with interest, “Are you not afraid of death?”
One of the men snorted. “I don’t beg for mercy even if I’m afraid of death! Even if you want to kill or cut my flesh, you can do as you please.”
“Isn’t it just death? What’s the big deal? ” Another man also spoke without a trace of fear in his eyes.
Another man with a tough and stocky build also said loudly, “I knew I was going to die early, but I didn’t expect to end up dying of these little snakes. It really irks me!”
Feng Jiu looked at these people and then looked back at Ghost Elder. Her heart moved. It seemed that these people really had a chance of survival.
Sure enough, Ghost Elder walked up to them, glanced at them one by one, and finally nodded. “Not bad. This courage is not bad. People who become the disciples of our Shadow Night Palace should not be afraid to die.”
When they heard this, they looked at him with a frown on their faces as if they were puzzled.
Ghost Elder kept staring at them with a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Even though you are a little weaker than those people, I like your courageous spirit and will let you live. I believe that even if you are not trained as the elites, you can also be used in the future.”
After saying these words, he looked aside at the two Nascent Soul cultivators. “Bring them away and send them to Old Sun. Ask him to arrange the training for these people.”
“Yes.” The two Nascent Soul cultivators answered and then shouted at those 40 people. “Come here!”
After those people left, Ghost Elder glanced at the thirty over people kneeling on the ground with disgust on his face. “Push these people down. They fear snakes.”
He looked down on spineless people!
“I, I will fight you!”
Those who kneel on the ground were driven into a corner. They had no choice but to revolt and pounced on Ghost Elder, thinking that they had to inflict damage to the enemy even though they would certainly die. The first person jumped up at that moment followed by the others. They threw themselves at Ghost Elder at lightning speed.
Ghost Elder squinted, his eyes were bloodthirsty and murderous. When he was about to strike, a figure in black sprang out in an instant, kicking out the man who jumped on him and blocking in front of him.
He stared with surprise at the young man in a black st.u.r.dy suit who had his back to him. His eyes flickered and said nothing.
“Kill them!”
Feng Jiu’s voice rang out. Other men in st.u.r.dy suits who heard it awakened from their stupor. When they saw those people rushed up, they also swept over to the front.
“Cras.h.!.+”
“Ah!”
“Ugh!”
m.u.f.fled groans and bone snapping echoed in the square. The sound of low shouts and screams spread out. The situation was chaotic. The smell of blood dispersed in the air. After a while, the whole square quietened down. There were more than thirty bodies on the ground.
After dealing with those people, the people in black stood in line according to their numbers. Although their faces were expressionless, everyone’s heart was shaken and turbulent.
At this time, the Celestial cultivators on that side also returned to their senses. They glanced at the corpses on the ground and then at people who lined up into several teams with a slight spark in their eyes.
At this time, Ghost Elder stepped in front of Feng Jiu.
