"Mother!" The eldest brother's expression was filled with sorrow as he reached out to support Ding Shuya, but a flash of sword light swept past his wrist!
Then, Tan Yun, holding the Primordial Chaos God-Slaying Sword, appeared beside the eldest brother.
"Ah!" The eldest brother howled in despair as a trace of blood appeared in the tiger's mouth on his hands, and then...
"Big brother!" The four siblings' eyes widened in horror, hesitating whether to take action or not!
"Plop!"
Tan Yun swung his sword backward, coldly severing the eldest brother's legs!
"Tan Yun, you...!" Before the eldest brother could finish his words, Tan Yun waved his right hand, and the sword tip pierced through his forehead.
His divine soul was instantly extinguished, and he died on the spot!
"Woo..." Ding Shuya looked at her eldest son's lifeless body, tears streaming down her face; she couldn't speak, only emitting a weak sound.
Tan Yun crouched down, coldly staring at Ding Shuya and said, "I didn't expect you would shed tears too."
"Does it hurt? You wish to kill me, don't you?"
Suddenly, Tan Yun roared, "Remember this! Your current feelings are the same as the feelings of the relatives of the thirty thousand townspeople when you ordered their slaughter!"
"You old fool, it's not that I'm Tan Yun cruel, I just want you to know that your pain is insignificant compared to the suffering of the thirty thousand townspeople's relatives!"
At this moment, the second elder brother looked at Tan Yun, who was squatting with his back to him, and roared hoarsely, "Third brother, fourth sister, fifth sister, let's fight Tan Yun together and kill him for mother and big brother’s revenge!"
"Kill!" Immediately, the four siblings summoned their Flying Swords and charged towards Tan Yun fiercely!
"You want to kill me? Just based on you!" Before Tan Yun finished speaking, he vanished in the shocked gazes of the generals of the Huangfu Sacred Dynasty!
In the next moment, four sword curtains appeared as if out of thin air, enveloping each of the four siblings!
"Ah..."
"No..."
"Plop plop plop—"
The cries of the four stopped abruptly as they were shredded by the sword curtains.
Then, Tan Yun appeared before the tearful Ding Shuya and spoke word by word, "Remember, good deeds are rewarded with good, and evil with evil. When you ignored the lives of the thirty thousand townspeople, this sovereign also ignored your life!"
Ding Shuya glared fiercely at Tan Yun. If looks could kill, Tan Yun would have been reduced to ashes!
"Plop!"
Tan Yun swung his sword, piercing through Ding Shuya's forehead. Her divine soul was extinguished, and the dignified vice-leader of the Zhongnan Immortal Mountain died!
Silence, absolute silence, within the Huangfu Luan Palace!
The generals looked at Tan Yun with deep fear in their eyes.
Tan Yun slowly turned around, scanning everyone, and said lightly, "This sovereign's principle of conduct is to only kill the royal family of the Huangfu Sacred Dynasty. Others who surrender shall not be killed."
"You all answer me, do you want to die?"
The generals unanimously replied, "We do not want to!"
"Very good." Tan Yun said coldly, "Leave two people to clean up the corpses in the great hall; the rest of you go and kill every member of the Huangfu Sacred Dynasty without mercy!"
"Yes, Sovereign!" After receiving the order, two people stayed behind to clean the corpses while the remaining generals moved out, exterminating the Huangfu royal family under the cover of night.
Half an hour later, the generals returned to the Huangfu Luan Palace, with not a single person attempting to escape.
There were two reasons why none of the generals fled.
First, their wives and children were in the Huangfu Imperial City; if they fled, what would happen to their families?
Second, and the most important reason was that, towards Tan Yun, a figure filled with legendary qualities, they felt genuine respect and even admiration!
Tan Yun took his seat at the head, looking at everyone and asking, "Why did no one escape?"
