Chapter 1678: Taking Over the Broken Star Palace (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Yanxiao was rather satisfied with the current situation.
Xiu’s appearance had thoroughly suppressed the Broken Star Palace’s arrogance. If they were to fight now, the Broken Star Palace would undoubtedly lose.
However, in the face of such a situation, another thought surfaced in her mind.
There were indeed many morally corrupt b.a.s.t.a.r.ds in the Broken Star Palace, but there were also many innocent people like Su He who had been tricked into the palace.
Should she slaughter everyone in the Broken Star Palace or take it for her own use?
This was a problem.
Three years later, the Devil race would return to the human world. If Shen Yanxiao were to ma.s.sacre everyone in the Broken Star Palace right now, probably no more than twenty Second-Cla.s.s Experts could be found in the entire Brilliance Continent three years later. That number was just too low.
Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes. After making her decision, she stepped forward and said to the members of the Broken Star Palace, “The former version Broken Star Palace can indeed live up to the t.i.tle of the Hall of Heroes among humans. However, after the pa.s.sage of time, the Broken Star Palace has been turned into h.e.l.l by its rulers. I believe that many of you joined the Broken Star Palace in order to benefit the Brilliance Continent. So right now, I am giving you two paths. Surrender to me and I will let you live. But if you continue to resist, I will not leave a single one of you alive. Three years later, the Devil race will return to the human world. Do you want to use your performance three years later to prove your loyalty to the Human race, or do you want to go to h.e.l.l with the label of a hypocritical organization like the Broken Star Palace attached to your back? I will leave the choice to you.”
“Xiaoxiao?” Tang Nazhi looked at Shen Yanxiao in surprise. He did not expect Shen Yanxiao to say such words in such a situation.
They had initially wanted to ma.s.sacre everyone in the Broken Star Palace from the very beginning, but Shen Yanxiao had changed her mind.
“Xiaoxiao is right. I believe she is aware that there are many people in the Broken Star Palace who have been deceived. If we kill all of them, then our alliance army will lose a portion of its strength three years later. Right now, the Broken Star Palace has been defeated, and our only enemy now is the Devil race.” Qi Xia had already guessed Shen Yanxiao’s thoughts. To be honest, he was surprised that she could change her mindset in such a short time.
It could be said that the grudge between the Broken Star Palace and Shen Yanxiao was deep.
The Vermilion Bird Family’s rebellion, the Twilight City’s interception, and the four-nation alliance’s war. All of these were the Broken Star Palace’s attacks against Shen Yanxiao.
If it were someone else, they would probably wish they could burn the Broken Star Palace into ashes. How could they be like Shen Yanxiao who remembered her sense of responsibility towards the Brilliance Continent when the situation was already so favorable to her side?
Qi Xia vaguely felt that some changes had happened after Shen Yanxiao entered the Forsaken Land.
She no longer only cared about personal interests. She now knew how to look at the overall situation.
The change from an expert to a real leader was subtle, but very few could do it well.
An expert might be able to suppress all four directions and instill fear into everyone.
However, a successful leader could use his charm to make an entire race fight for him.
Shen Yanxiao was currently moving towards such a leader. She was no longer a demon that relied on her momentum to rampage forward.
She would become a real commander!
Shen Yanxiao’s words silenced everyone in the Broken Star Palace and the same shock filled their hearts.
They thought they were doomed, but Shen Yanxiao had left them a way out.
