Chapter 201: Alchemical Pill Refinement Heritage (Cultivating)
What came into view was a blaze that reached the sky, extraordinarily striking against the night.
The fire raged fiercely, spreading throughout Tianyong City, and was burning intensely.
The flames illuminated the surroundings of the city, bright as day, like the only beacon in the dark night.
Yet what it brought was not hope!
Countless homes of mortals were destroyed in this conflagration, gradually turning to ashes.
And they could only watch helplessly, soon to face an even darker fate.
The hundreds of direct descendants of the Huang family had already been dealt with, while the majority of collateral relatives witnessed their homes turn to ruins.
A sorrowful expression was etched on everyone's faces.
They could never have imagined that their once prosperous days would be overturned in a single day.
Prospered by immortal cultivators, and yet destroyed by them!
As buildings collapsed one after another, sparks flew into the sky, drifting far away before extinguishing.
Beautiful like fireflies!
Yet fragile like life, releasing their final light and warmth before returning to darkness and cold.
"Woo woo~"
Watching their homes reduced to ruins, many mortals from the Huang family wept inconsolably.
Some collateral relatives, dressed plainly, even failed to understand what was happening, yet were caught up in the turmoil, powerless to resist their impending fate.
In the depths of their pitch-black pupils reflected the soaring flames, and this was the scene Liu Yu observed.
"Boom~"
Under the burning of the spell fire, even hard bricks and stones were consumed, and the sounds of collapsing buildings echoed through the city as the city walls continued to crumble.
In just about a quarter of an hour, the once prosperous city had become ruins.
But Liu Yu knew, it wouldn't take years before new cities would rise on the foundations of these ruins.
Because the area surrounding Tianyong City was a fertile plain, the land was rich and very suitable for farming.
Moreover, water sources were not far away, making it suitable for mortal survival.
However, the name of the city would likely no longer be Tianyong City, and the Huang family would no longer exist within it.
Tianyong Mountain might also be awarded to the foundation establishment fellow disciples who distinguished themselves in the spiritual stone mine war.
This would allow disciples with no hope on the path to branch out and establish new immortal cultivating families, and perhaps, Tianyong Mountain would no longer be called Tianyong Mountain either.
Time would heal all traces.
This past might be forgotten by people in just a few years.
Only the surviving several hundred thousand collateral relatives of the Huang family would silently endure the waves of pain brought by their family's immortal cultivators, "redeeming" for the sins committed by their kin.
Generation after generation, men would be slaves, and women would be courtesans.
Only the bloodline of the Huang family would remain unbroken, only the Yuan Yang Sect would continue to exist, and they would live forever bearing the mark of sin, forever losing the ladder to ascend.
“.”
Liu Yu had a blank expression as he silently gazed at the ruins of the city and the countless Huang family mortals, who were weeping not far from the city.
After a moment of swirling winds and rain, his heart was as hard as ancient Mystic Ice, not stirred at all by the scene before him.
It was simply a matter of winners and losers.
Ultimately, it was the weakness of the Huang family cultivators that led to such a tragic end.
If they were strong, and the Huang family had succeeded in their schemes, these Huang family mortals would also benefit, and their living standards would have improved to some extent.
They were an interrelated family, sharing honor and disgrace.
From the perspective of the Yuan Yang Sect, these Huang family mortals were completely unworthy of sympathy and must be dealt with swiftly to serve as a warning to others.
