The City Falls
The elemental demons cheered upon seeing the opportunity to begin their hunt, wasting not even a moment to commence their tyranny. Everything was flammable. The ground split as it rose into the firmament to become ammunition for earth demons. Raining blades pumped cultivators who tried to rise high full of holes. The fire demons would set the falling cultivators ablaze, and the earth demons would smash apart their corpses.
“Kill him! He’s the devil you elemental demons want! We’re just victims!”
“Activate your teleportation formation! I’m an elder of Mystic Spirit Sect! If I die, my whole sect will come after you!”
Those who were not shouting idiocy fled helter-skelter, turning it into an every-man-for-himself skirmish to escape the flames’ siege. The man they trusted to lead them, on the other hand, fled as fast he always flaunted his name to shove his “superiority” down people’s throats. Sadly for him, Mu Yu had other plans in mind for him.
Mu Yu trapped Body Synthesis Realm cultivators in his formation, while Lie Shang caught Spirit Severing Realm cultivators. Xiaoshuai watched on from the five bodies.
Grappling with Mu Yu’s hand on his throat, Gao Yixing cried, “Let go! Let go! I’m not Inferno Sect’s patriarch! We’re Celestial Star Sect’s adjunct!”
Mu Yu slowly dug his sword into Gao Yixing’s dantian and then threw the groaning elder to the ground. Gao Yixing crawled away from Mu Yu whilst grimacing.
“Please don’t kill me! Please! Please!”
Mu Yu speared his hand through Gao Yixing’s chest to grab the elder’s heart. “Elder He and Xuan Clan’s hearts should be beating, not yours.”Mu Yu jerked Gao Yixing’s heart in one go.
“Y-you are a devil!”
As Gao Yixing’s head started to flop, Mu Yu severed it. Foot on the severed head, Mu Yu twisted his neck around to Tian Ziming. “He called me a devil, and he’s right.”
Mu Yu crushed Gao Yixing’s heart over Tian Ziming, covering Tian Ziming’s face in red. “I’m an innocent devil. You’re filthy devils.”
“Wh-who exactly are you?”
Tian Ziming squealed at the top of his lungs upon absorbing a slash with his dantian. “My whole sect will make you squirm! We’ll kill you so bad you never reincarnate!”
“I wonder if your young master has reincarnated yet. I guess you won’t be coming back to tell me.” Mu Yu plunged his hand through Tian Ziming’s chest.
“W-wait, you ar-”
“You’ve already wasted enough oxygen.”
Mu Yu crushed Tian Ziming’s heart in his hand and showered the latter with his own blood. Treating Tian Ziming to a taste of his own medicine, Mu Yu proceeded to dissect Tian Ziming using branches, taking only what was useful to him. “And now, I’m no longer an innocent devil.”
Mu Yu turned back to the five corpses, solemnly expressing, “Sorry. I can slaughter the entire city, yet I failed to protect you. I will not let your deaths be in vain. I now understand that the best way to protect people worthy of living on is to kill the villains. I’ll send these cowards over to apologise to you.”
Mu Yu bound all of the Body Synthesis Realm cultivators who took Tian Ziming’s side in his branches. He destroyed their dantian and pierced their hearts just as they did to the five innocent victims. He forced branches to pry open their orifices, eventually transforming them into moving human trees to attack other fleeing cultivators.
Like an epidemic, whenever a walking tree caught onto a cultivator, branches would penetrate the target’s body to absorb their flesh and soul energy before turning them into another walking tree. None of the elemental demons’ attacks were able to dent the malicious trees, making them an unstoppable force.
“Save me! Please! Save me! Teleport me out. I swear I never intended to kill you!” The pleading young cultivator dragged his bisected body along the ground with only one arm remaining and celestial flames burning him, forgetting he was one of the most vocal people when condemning Mu Yu.
“You were given the chance to save yourself.” Mu Yu sprouted a branch from the ground, ending the cultivator in the same fashion he did to others. “The red sky bids all of you farewell.”
