Wu Shattered Star River

The tens of millions of citizens within the city were currently fleeing outwards like ants. Upon noticing this, Jiang Han's eyes turned cold, and a murderous intent arose.

However, he ultimately restrained himself. The Northern Region and the Eastern Region were, after all, allies. If he were to truly slaughter these tens of millions of ordinary Heavenly Yin Clan members, the impact would be too severe.

The main issue was that many Heavenly Yin Clan members were civilians with weak combat power. Jiang Han didn't want to indiscriminately kill the innocent.

Nevertheless, he still took action. He unleashed streams of light, each infused with his frigid energy, targeting several directions with his attacks.

He had only captured one hundred thousand Heavenly Yin Clan members; he hadn't captured enough. He noticed that there were still many young masters and misses.

His frigid energy struck, and many more Heavenly Yin Clan members were hit. Moreover, they were all gathered together in a dense crowd, making it too easy to collect them.

His spatial artifact flew over, rapidly collecting thousands upon thousands of Heavenly Yin Clan members.

The Great Elder and Yin Jie watched anxiously, wishing those clan members could run faster. At this moment, they dared not move even more.

Because so many clan members were fleeing, they were afraid Jiang Han would release Heavenly Fire, burning all the fleeing clan members to death.

Jiang Han was having a blast capturing them, specifically targeting the young masters and misses in luxurious robes, causing the Great Elder and Yin Jie to feel their hearts bleed, as many of those clan members were their descendants.

In the end, Jiang Han captured another fifty thousand Heavenly Yin Clan members, and the rest escaped.

Having captured about one hundred and fifty thousand in total, Jiang Han was satisfied. He didn't pursue them, nor did he flee.

He pondered for a moment, then brazenly flew into the largest palace in the city.

Then…

He began to set up formations within the palace!

This palace was the Heavenly Yin Clan's sacred hall, where the Heavenly Yin Clan's higher-ups held meetings. Yin Qi's throne was also here.

What was Jiang Han doing setting up formations in the palace? Moreover, the formations he was setting up weren't strong enough.

The Great Elder and Yin Jie exchanged glances. Jiang Han captured their clan members but didn't flee. Was he planning to wait here for Yin Qi and the others to return?

The formations Jiang Han set up were weak; a Dao Ancestor Realm expert could shatter them with a slap. Yet, he still set up three formations.

Then, his body flashed, and he entered the Other Shore Space, retrieved a spatial artifact from within, and released dozens of young masters and misses.

These were all royalty, with top-tier status, and they were all young. The strongest among them were four at the Emperor level.

A group of young masters and misses saw Jiang Han release them and trembled, thinking Jiang Han was going to kill them.

Jiang Han didn't kill them. Instead, he took out the Immortal Binding Rope and tied them all up, binding them to the pillars of the main hall.

Afterward, he swaggered and sat on the throne in the palace— Yin Qi's seat.

Jiang Han took out fine wine and leisurely sat in the palace, drinking.

He had gone all out today. If Ye Wanqiu hadn't died, then he would use these one hundred and fifty thousand direct descendants of the Heavenly Yin Clan for an exchange.

If Ye Wanqiu had died, then these one hundred and fifty thousand direct descendants would be buried with Ye Wanqiu.

He might be captured alive today, or he might die. He didn't care anymore. Today, he would completely settle things with the Heavenly Yin Clan.

He leisurely sat here, drinking wine. Outside, the Great Elder and Yin Jie, along with some Heavenly Emperors, surrounded the palace, but no strong expert dared to move.

Further out, some scouts from other major clans had arrived. The Heavenly Yin Sacred City wasn't just home to the Heavenly Yin Clan; various clans had scouts lurking here.

Some scouts ran out and then returned, observing the development of the situation.

Many scouts had already transmitted the news. At this moment, the drastic changes occurring in the Heavenly Yin Sacred City were spreading throughout the Northern Region at a terrifying speed.

The Holy Yao City exploded first. In countless courtyards, a large number of scouts were teleporting towards the Heavenly Yin Continent to investigate the latest battle reports.

Countless disciples of major clans were also teleporting over there; they were naturally going to watch the excitement.

Many strong experts were walking towards the palace, seeking an audience with the Northern Region Great Emperor, wanting to ask how to handle this matter?

Some Dao Ancestor Realm experts had already crossed the void to see what was happening. Two of them wanted to go and help, to kill Jiang Han.

After waiting for a moment, there was finally movement within the palace.

The Yao Clan had four Dao Ancestor Realm experts. At this moment, one of them had been dispatched; it was the Yao Clan's Great Elder, usually responsible for handling various daily affairs.

The Yao Clan's Great Elder, Yao Ning, had been dispatched and was rushing to the Holy Yin City. This represented the Northern Region Great Emperor's dissatisfaction; the Yao Clan was going to intervene.

The news spread, and more Dao Ancestor Realm experts were dispatched, rushing towards the Holy Yin City.

In the hearts of many strong experts, Jiang Han's actions had gone too far. A small Eastern Region brat had caused such a commotion in the Northern Region. If the Northern Region's strong experts didn't step forward, then the Northern Region's reputation would be completely lost.

Therefore, regardless of how it was ultimately handled, Jiang Han had been sentenced to death in the hearts of many strong experts.

The Yao Clan's Great Elder's dispatch represented the Northern Region Great Emperor's will—this matter had been going on for so long, and it was time for a resolution.

… …

Another hour passed, and Yin Qi, Yin Li, and Yan Xin finally returned!

The three great experts arrived simultaneously, with Yin Qi leading them across the void. The three great experts appeared out of thin air in mid-air.

The three great experts scanned the area with their soul sense and discovered that many buildings in the city had collapsed, leaving a scene of devastation. There were still many corpses in the city, and the city was empty. Tens of millions of clan members were gone.

Their expressions became extremely gloomy. Yin Li's body erupted with滔天 rage, and his murderous intent was almost tangible.

“Buzz ~”

A long sword appeared in Yin Li's hand, and he was about to attack.

The Heavenly Yin Clan's Great Elder quickly flew up and cupped his fists, saying, "Second Holy Ancestor, please don't act rashly. Jiang Han has captured over a dozen of our clan members, all… direct descendants!"

“What?”

Yin Li's expression changed again. He swept out a palm, sending the Great Elder flying, and roared, "Waste!"

Yin Qi ignored the Great Elder, his gaze fixed coldly below, making eye contact with Jiang Han through the palace gate.

His eyes flickered, pondering how to rescue all the dozen or so direct descendants in a foolproof manner.

“Buzz ~”

The Haotian Stone appeared in Jiang Han's hand, and he suddenly took out a ball of Heavenly Fire.

As soon as the Heavenly Fire appeared, a heatwave immediately swept out, and the entire palace immediately burst into flames.

The dozens of young masters and misses in the palace were all burned alive. The strongest of these dozens of young masters and misses was only at the Emperor level. How could they withstand the Heavenly Fire?

“Jiang Han, prepare to die!”

Yin Li roared in fury and was about to charge towards Jiang Han, but Yin Qi grabbed him at that moment.

Yin Qi gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice, "Second Uncle, calm down. He doesn't have a spatial artifact on him. Our clan members might be hidden in a spatial fragment. If we act rashly, those clan members might all die…"

“Hehe!”

Jiang Han sat on the throne in the palace. This throne was a treasure and hadn't been melted by the high temperature.

The palace was engulfed in flames, but he didn't care at all. He sat in the flames, a ferocious smile on his face, like a demon walking out of hell.

He looked up at Yin Qi and Yin Li and said with a smile, "Come on, come and kill me. I never planned to leave here alive today."

"If I die, Little Suzaku will burn all of your dozen or so clan members to death. Having a dozen or so Heavenly Yin Clan members buried with me is enough!"
