2633 A difficult choice (1)
The sudden applause had the power to break the curse and woke up the crazy native cultivators.
They looked at the weapons in their hands, then at the surrounding scene, and their faces revealed a shocked expression.
“Damn it, what have I done?”
who killed them? why would they attack their own people? are they crazy? ”
“Not good, there’s a monster!”
that person looks so familiar. Is he the Demon King that leads the monsters? ”
The native cultivators looked at Tang Zhen, who was standing at the door. After the shock, their bodies couldn’t help but tremble.
There was more than one person who had seen the wanted order and the battle scene in the square. They naturally knew of Tang Zhen’s identity.
In the eyes of these native cultivators, Tang Zhen was far more terrifying than those monsters.
If there were only one or two monsters, he might be able to avoid being killed, but if he encountered the Demon King that commanded the monsters, there was no chance of escaping.
Clearly, from this moment on, their life and death were no longer in their control. Whether they lived or died was all in the hands of a single thought from Tang Zhen.
The atmosphere in the basement was unusually quiet. No one dared to speak, as if doing so would trigger a disaster.
The big-bearded man looked at Tang Zhen who was standing not far away, as well as the huge figure behind him. He swallowed his saliva with great difficulty.
His feelings were extremely complicated. He couldn’t believe that the Demon King in front of him was the young village man who had been drinking and talking with him.
They had seen countless cultivators being killed by the monsters. The Demon King in front of them was the mortal enemy of these native cultivators.
However, the native cultivators didn’t have such a strong hatred in their hearts, because they had been actively hunting monsters from the beginning.
Due to the imprisonment of the ruins, the monsters didn’t cause much damage to cleansing wind city. Instead, the native cultivators killed countless monsters.
The tragic encounter before their eyes was more like the revenge of the monster, and the native cultivators deserved it.
The big-bearded man’s son and daughter were currently looking at Tang Zhen in a daze. It was as if they could not understand why there would be such a dramatic change.
Under everyone’s gaze, Tang Zhen slowly walked into the basement. The sound of his footsteps was like a heavy hammer that knocked on everyone’s head.
The native cultivators in front of Tang Zhen dodged to the side one after another, as if they would be eaten if they were one step slower.
A spacious passage quickly appeared in the basement. Everyone was doing their best to avoid Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen did not find trouble with anyone. Instead, he came to the edge of the basement. There was a distorted figure there.
It was this thing that caused the native cultivators to fall into chaos and kill each other.
Seeing Tang Zhen walking in front of him, the monster with half of its body attached to the wall became increasingly flustered and uneasy.
It seemed to want to hide in the wall, but it was restrained by an invisible force, and it let out a sharp howl in panic.
As soon as he screamed, it was as if his neck was grabbed, and then no more sound was made.
The monster was then pulled out and fell heavily to the ground, wriggling like an earthworm.
I was wondering what it was. So it’s a mutated believer of an evil god. But it looks a little interesting.
Tang Zhen softly said. After which, he turned to look at the big-bearded man beside him and suddenly laughed softly.
“Your luck is pretty good to be able to survive until now. But what should we do next?”
The big-bearded man’s heart trembled when he heard Tang Zhen’s question.
He was unable to guess the meaning behind Tang Zhen’s words. However, he knew that Tang Zhen did not intend to kill him. Perhaps it was because they were once acquaintances, or perhaps it was because he disdained to do so.
No matter what the reason was, it made the bearded man feel as if he had found a way out. He knew that his next answer would likely decide the life and death of him and his children.
Hence, he looked at Tang Zhen and asked in a probing tone,”I want to leave the ruins with my companions. Is that possible?”
The hearts of the surrounding cultivators were in their throats. They knew that Tang Zhen’s reply would determine their fate.
Even an ant would try to live. If they had a choice, no one would be willing to die.
“You want to leave the ruins?”
Tang Zhen frowned. His gaze swept across the big-bearded man and those native cultivators, but he did not directly reply.
The cultivators ‘hearts were in their throats again, but no one dared to make a request, for it would make things worse.
Tang Zhen suddenly smiled under everyone’s nervous gaze. After which, he gently nodded.
“Of course you can!”
Tang Zhen’s words were like the sound of nature. It caused the big-bearded man and the others to be invigorated. They were so excited that they almost cheered out loud.
Fortunately, the cultivators managed to control their emotions in time and didn’t let themselves make a sound. However, the expressions on their faces were enough to explain everything.
This was what it meant to have a new lease on life.
However, just as their joyous mood rose, Tang Zhen’s next sentence sent them into a bottomless abyss.
“Actually, it’s not very safe outside. It won’t be long before cleansing wind city is captured.
“Then, you’ll find that there are monsters everywhere. There’s not a single safe spot.
You’ve been hiding everywhere, only to find that there’s no place to hide at all. The threat of death is like a shadow, and it can take your life at any time!
Of course, it’s not unavoidable. You just need to join my camp and you can live the same life as before.”
When Tang Zhen said this, he smiled at the big-bearded man and said,”I’m not sure if you understand what I’m saying?”
The bearded man nodded hesitantly. He did understand, but he was also at a loss.
Joining the monster’s camp in order to survive and then becoming enemies with his own kind was a difficult choice for big beard.
Clearly, the big-bearded man still had his own bottom line.
Not everyone was like this. While the big-bearded man was hesitating, some native cultivators had already made their choice.
Your Excellency, I choose to join your camp. I’m willing to pledge my loyalty to you!
A native cultivator said loudly. Then, he knelt on the ground to show his determination.
“I’m also loyal to you!”
“Count me in, I’ll join too!”
“As long as you give the order, I will carry it out unconditionally!”
The native cultivators knelt down one after another. In order to survive, they couldn’t care about anything else.
The big-bearded man was still hesitating. It was difficult for him to make a choice in a short time, and the performance of the other native cultivators made him even more hesitant.
It was true that he had never pledged his loyalty to anyone, but because of his conscience, he did not want to become an executioner who slaughtered his own kind.
The bearded man’s children did not speak. They would respect their father’s choice, even if it meant paying the price with their lives.
In the blink of an eye, most of the native cultivators had chosen to surrender, leaving only big Beard’s family, Hula’s lover, and the blacksmith.
“Time’s Up. Tell me your choice.”
Tang Zhen’s voice sounded, causing the big-bearded man to clench his fist. In the end, he helplessly sighed.
I’ll join your side, but I hope you can let the people of cleansing wind city go. After all, they are innocent.
At the same time, the big-bearded man knelt down and saluted Tang Zhen like the other native cultivators.
The big-bearded daughter had a complicated expression. She also learned from her father and knelt down in front of Tang Zhen.
“You’ve made a wise choice,”
Tang Zhen looked at the big-mustached man and spoke in an indifferent tone. After which, he turned around and walked out of the basement.
When he walked to the door, Tang Zhen suddenly turned around and said to the big-bearded man,”There’s something I need to tell you. I’m actually a cultivator of Lou Cheng, so you guys didn’t join the monster Camp.”
