Xiuxian: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 634: Captives (There is another chapter with words)
A great war ended here.

The hundreds of thousands of remaining troops turned into light and disappeared after surrendering, becoming a pile of prisoner cards, leaving behind only the Huangtian City, which was bombarded by meteorites, with its equipment blown up and badly damaged.

lost heavily!

The Yellow Turban Army alone suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, and a huge amount of resources were consumed. The Huangtian City, which was built with great effort, was mostly destroyed by meteorites and various siege weapons, and only one in ten defensive buildings, such as the mechanical tower, remained.

In other aspects, whether it was Mulan's female guards, Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Cavalry, or other heroes' personal guards and private soldiers, they all suffered heavy casualties. Gongshu Ling's disciples were hit hard and almost wiped out.

There are even several epic heroes and a large number of rare heroes. Ordinary heroes died in the war, but fortunately, there is the mythical building of Wushuang Dianjiangtai, which can revive them and reduce some of the losses.

But it was only a part of it. After all, the number of places on the Wushuang Command Platform was limited. Only twenty-four Wushuang heroes were transformed in two years. The heroes who were not transformed were completely killed.

All in all, there were heavy casualties!

But this is the world, war and death are inevitable.

What is important is not the number of casualties, but how great the rewards are and whether a virtuous cycle of fighting to support fighting can be formed.

There is no doubt that Xu Yang had reaped huge rewards, with hundreds of thousands of prisoners alone.

Among the hundreds of thousands of captives, there were not only noble magic soldiers like Zhoutian sword cultivators and Netherworld Ghost Envoys, but also imperial guards like the Guangwu Guards, whose strength was even stronger than his White Dragon Army that could break through the formation.

These are just some of the troops, there are also heroes. Most of the 28 generals of Yuntai were killed or wounded by him, but a few of them survived by chance.

Together with the generals in other battlefields who did not engage in direct confrontation with him, there were no less than ten legendary heroes captured this time, and hundreds of epic heroes and rare heroes.

But the one with the highest value has to be Liu Xiu. Although this mythical emperor fought him head-on with his unique skills of wind and cloud and was defeated, he was able to save his life in the midst of the thunder because of the effect of the "Hundred Kings Set". He did not die, but was just unconscious.

A mythical hero, and an imperial mythical hero at that, his value is self-evident.

Be it his own abilities or the Gongsun Yang and the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai that he summoned, they are enough to make the major lords fight over them, so selling them at a sky-high price is definitely not a problem.

Don't ask why he wanted to sell him. Xu Yang also wanted to use him for his own purposes, but it was obvious that a legendary emperor like him would never submit to a rebel leader.

In the Tower of Babel, although the lord is supreme, the heroes and soldiers do not necessarily have to obey the lord, especially the heroes, who have considerable freedom. If they don't get along well with the lord, they may leave at best and even rebel directly at worst.

Xu Yang might be able to force him to submit to himself by threatening him with life and death, but such a forced melon would definitely not be sweet and would also pose various hidden dangers. Xu Yang did not want a rebellion to break out in his territory just as he set out to fight.

So, it’s better to sell it, saving you both trouble and effort.

After the captives, there were all kinds of spoils of war. It would take a lot of time to sort out the millions of troops.

Xu Yang was not in a hurry to check because he had something important to do.

"Tongtian Palace."

"The Netherworld Dao Mansion."

"Kunlun Wonderland."

Xu Yang looked at Zhou Tianqi, Ning Bozhong, Tan Taiqin, and a bunch of other captives in front of him, and said calmly, "Tell me, what price do you plan to use to redeem your lives?"

His words were direct and to the point, making his attitude clear.

These lords are actually the biggest gains of this battle, especially Zhou Tianqi, Ning Bozhong and Tan Taiqin, who are seed players who come from three major forces and have god-level talents. Their value is even higher than that of the mythical hero Liu Xiu.

This is also the reason why Xu Yang kept them. He wanted to make a fortune to make up for his losses.

As for killing people to vent his anger, it is not within his consideration. Killing is only a means, not an end for him. Venting his anger is out of the question. These people have no grudges against him, and they are not worthy of making enemies with him.

Although this statement was a bit arrogant, it was true. He was an immortal who had practiced for several lifetimes and experienced many vicissitudes of life. If he made enemies with a bunch of furry kids, wouldn't that mean he was going backwards? With this mentality, he was still cultivating immortality. He might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself. Therefore, these people were not worthy of making enemies with him. In his eyes, they were only of pure value for use and could not arouse any emotional fluctuations.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Faced with Xu Yang's words, everyone fell silent.

Zhou Tianqi lowered his head and said nothing. Ning Bozhong and Tan Taiqin also remained silent.

After a while, one person mustered up the courage to speak: "I am a direct descendant of the Li family of Cangxuan Dao Palace. According to the agreement between the various forces in Tongtian Tower, I can use my territory to redeem my life and freedom."

"Your territory?"

Xu Yang looked at him and shook his head: "That's my territory."

"..."

"..."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent again, and the lord looked even paler.

There are no rules for the fighting between lords in the Tower of Babel. As long as you can capture the opponent, it is up to you to decide whether to kill or cut him.

But the fact that the Tower of Babel does not exist does not mean that the various forces do not have it. Just like the competition for the rookie list, in order to avoid vicious competition, the major forces have formulated a set of simple rules to ensure that the situation does not deteriorate and get out of control while maintaining their competitiveness.

Therefore, after being captured, lords from powerful forces can use their own territories as ransom in exchange for their lives and freedom, as well as a chance to make a comeback.

But Xu Yangguan did not intend to abide by this rule, because in his opinion, these people's territories were already in his pocket.

You're taking my things as your ransom?
There is no such truth!
Xu Yang’s meaning was very clear, and everyone understood it clearly.

He's going to rip me off!
If you want to redeem yourself, you have to bleed a lot!

This made everyone very depressed, as they had never been treated like this before.

But one has to bow his head under the eaves. Finally, the lord gritted his teeth and said, "I can contact the family, pay an additional ransom, and hand over the existing territory. All buildings and all arms will belong to you."

"not enough!"

After hearing this, Xu Yang still shook his head: "You have to hand over your belongings and equipment as well."

"..."

The man was silent for a while, feeling grief-stricken and angry, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth and nod: "Okay!"

After saying that, he turned his gaze and glared fiercely at Zhou Tianqi beside him.

He is not a member of the Zhou family. He came here only at the invitation of Zhou Tianqi. Now he has fallen into trouble. I wonder if the Zhou family will compensate for his losses?

Judging from the situation, it is highly unlikely that this will happen, and even if it does happen, it is impossible to compensate all of it.

If he had known this would happen, he would never have boarded this pirate ship.

It’s too late to repent, it’s too late to repent!
