Chapter 2227 - 2226: Harvest! (Part 2)
"Hoo..."
A gust of wind howled by, blowing towards an unknown destination.
The entire Phoenix Star was now silent, as if it had returned to those peaceful days before the outbreak of the Extraterritorial Demons.
Looking out, the countless Extraterritorial Demons that once surrounded this place had all disappeared without a trace.
The only thing left was a massive amount of blood crystals, piled as high as a mountain.
Those blood crystals sparkled brightly, extremely dazzling, with all various grades available.
Yet, at this moment, the numerous disciples of the Phoenix Sect just stood there in a daze, as if they hadn’t seen these blood crystals at all.
"Gulp!"
Until one moment, the sound of someone swallowing suddenly broke the silence.
This sound shattered the tranquility on Phoenix Star, broke the daze in their minds, and also broke the shock from everything that had just happened.
"Is this... is this true?" someone mumbled to themselves.
Others, too, at this moment, rubbed their eyes hard.
The annoying noise that filled them with irritation was gone.
The detestable Extraterritorial Demons had also temporarily disappeared.
Looking up, they could only see a large mass of blood crystals, storage rings floating in the void, and... those seven slightly damaged small starry battleships.
As for the people...
Apart from the people of the Phoenix Sect, there was not a single one to be seen.
All seven Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses were dead!!!
Tens of thousands from various sects were completely annihilated under that Poison Pill, not a single one survived!
It was only at this moment that the many disciples of the Phoenix Sect truly witnessed what kind of confidence Su Han possessed!
Even with the state of mind of Xuanyuan Qiong and others, they gulped hard, trembling all over.
They didn’t know what the Poison Pill was made from, only that Su Han had once said, under the Heavenly Emperor, everything could be... instantly killed!
...
Hu Cheng and the others, along with Fang Mie from the Sect of Taiyun, also stood at a distance, staring dumbfounded at this scene.
Especially the people from the Sect of Taiyun!
Hu Cheng and the others didn’t mind, as their strength was inferior to the Phoenix Sect anyway, so paying spirit crystals wasn’t an issue.
But Fang Mie’s group, though they had already conceded, still felt deep down that the Sect of Taiyun at its peak was definitely not something the Phoenix Sect could compare to. Despite having joined the Phoenix Sect now, the feeling of being ’extorted’ by Su Han still lingered.
However, at this moment...
They were completely awakened!
And they fully realized the gap between themselves and the Phoenix Sect!
In one strike, instantly killing seven Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses, countless Fusion Realm and Divine Sea Realm!
What did this signify?
It signified that even at its peak, the Sect of Taiyun still couldn’t contend with this single black Poison Pill!
Because within the Sect of Taiyun, they had only one Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouse!!!
"Grand Elder."
Shangguan Xier stood among the crowd, and called out to Fang Mie.
Fang Mie snapped out of it and said in a low voice, "Young Miss, what is it?"
"Send down the orders: in the future, when encountering people from the Phoenix Sect, it’s best to... maintain a respectful distance," Shangguan Xier said.
"Hoo..."
Fang Mie let out a long breath and nodded, "I understand."
...
"People."
Outside the Light Barrier, Su Han waved his hand, and immediately many from the Phoenix Sect rushed out.
"Clean up this area, sort the blood crystals by grade, find as many storage rings as possible, but in no more than two hours, everyone must return to the Phoenix Sect."
"Yes!" everyone nodded immediately.
They all knew that while it seemed like the Extraterritorial Demons had been exterminated, it would be no longer than two hours before they would gather around again.
"As for these seven starry battleships."
Su Han glanced at those starry battleships and continued, "Though slightly damaged by the power of the Poison Pill, they are not broken overall, only superficially. Find those in the sect who can operate starry battleships and bring them all to the Phoenix Sect; these are our spoils of war."
"Yes!"
Everyone was beyond excited.
With these starry battleships, the Phoenix Sect now had a total of eight!
It’s not just a matter of numbers; every cultivator knew the power of starry battleships.
If not for the carelessness of the Wind Forest Venerable and others, who didn’t immediately use the starry battleships to attack, the Light Barrier of this Phoenix Star would likely have been shattered by now.
Of course, with the Poison Pill around, even if they had used starry battleships, the Wind Forest Venerable and others wouldn’t have escaped death.
...
Half a day later.
The council hall had long been rebuilt, and Lian Yuze was in it, reporting the harvest to Su Han.
"The blood crystals total over 1.2 billion, divided by grade and stored in the treasury per the Sect Master’s orders."
"There are seven starry battleships in total, which the Sect Master already knows."
"As for the spirit crystals..."
Here, Lian Yuze paused slightly, then took a deep breath before saying, "Altogether, 1,300 trillion!"
"That many?!"
Upon hearing this, Su Han’s eyes lit up, and he stood up directly.
"Yes."
Lian Yuze nodded heavily and smiled, "We didn’t expect such a huge amount, but it’s certainly a pleasant surprise for us. These spirit crystals, along with the blood crystals and those seven starry battleships, should be enough to compensate for the loss of that Poison Pill."
"It seems these guys didn’t come with a mindset of insisting on a hard bargain. They probably wanted to negotiate with our sect based on the situation. Unfortunately for them, our sect doesn’t buy it, leading to this outcome," Su Han said.
Su Han was right; when these forces arrived, they didn’t entirely want to oppose the Phoenix Sect. After all, the safe territory belonged to the Phoenix Sect, and if pushed to the brink, the Phoenix Sect might destroy it rather than surrender.
They had intended to negotiate with Su Han, which is why they brought so many spirit crystals.
But who could have guessed that Su Han wouldn’t give face to anyone, not even to Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses?
Their words angered the Wind Forest Venerable and others, who intended to give the Phoenix Sect a show of strength, but were all killed under one Poison Pill from Su Han...
In hindsight, they were rather pitiful.
Yet pitiful people must have some hateful elements!
If they had spoken to Su Han politely, Su Han might have treated them the same way as Hu Cheng and the others, perhaps offering a slight discount.
But since they insisted on being harsh, Su Han had no choice.
These forces, one after another, wanted to give the Phoenix Sect a show of strength.
But Su Han, didn’t he also want to give them a show of strength?
"After this incident, if they want to act against my Phoenix Sect again, they will probably have to think twice!" Su Han snorted coldly in his heart.
