Wu Shattered Star River

Having settled on a plan, the question became how to delay.

Yin Qi could see that Jiang Han was a ruthless character. If he became suspicious, he might immediately slaughter the tens of thousands of direct descendants of the Tianyin race.

He continued to stay inside, stalling for time while trying to think of a solution.

Two incense sticks' worth of time passed quickly. Jiang Han sensed that something was wrong. Without a word, his body entered the Other Shore space.

Then, he took out a spatial artifact, released thousands of cultivators, and was about to unleash heavenly fire to roast the Tianyin race.

"Stop!"

Yin Qi quickly appeared, shouting, "Jiang Han, stop killing! Let's talk properly."

Jiang Han didn't answer, directly releasing several balls of heavenly fire, incinerating several thousand more of the Tianyin race.

After killing them, Jiang Han coldly looked into the air and said, "Want to delay for time? Summoned reinforcements? Very well... From now on, I will kill ten thousand every thirty breaths. You can continue to delay, I don't care!"

"You!"

Yin Qi trembled with anger, looking at the scorched corpses all over the palace ruins, his heart bleeding.

After pondering for a few breaths, he said, "Alright, I agree to your conditions. As a show of sincerity, release thirty thousand clansmen first!"

"Thirty thousand?"

Jiang Han coldly snorted and said, "At most ten thousand. First, throw Ye Wanqiu's soul over, and I will immediately release ten thousand Tianyin clansmen!"

"Ten thousand is too few!"

Yin Qi said, "Release twenty thousand first, then release fifty thousand when you reach the entrance to the Heavenly Domain. After entering the Heavenly Domain, release another fifty thousand. You can release the rest after returning to the Eastern Region, how about that?"

"Hmm?"

Jiang Han's eyes flickered, feeling somewhat doubtful. Was Yin Qi really preparing to agree to his conditions? Was he really willing to return Ye Wanqiu's soul and let them return to the Eastern Region?

He actually hadn't held much hope, after all, Yin Qi was the king of a race, surely a cold-blooded and ruthless hero. How could he let him leave for the sake of the lives of over ten thousand clansmen?

He knew that once he returned to the Eastern Region, the Tianyin race would be nailed to the pillar of shame forever, and it would be difficult to wash away.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I will release ten thousand now, then you cannot pursue. Release ten thousand after leaving Tianyin Continent, release ten thousand after crossing Black Butterfly Continent, and release ten thousand after reaching the entrance to the Heavenly Domain."

"After entering the Heavenly Domain, I will release fifty thousand at once, and release all the rest after returning to the Eastern Region. This is my bottom line!"

Yin Qi became entangled. His lips moved, and he seemed to be communicating with Yin Li, discussing the matter via sound transmission.

On the surface, they were discussing, but in reality, they were still stalling for time.

After discussing for a short while, seeing that Jiang Han was becoming impatient again, Yin Qi said to Jiang Han with a dark face, "Alright, I agree to your conditions. I hope you don't go back on your word."

"Hua!"

As Yin Qi's words fell, a wave of discussion immediately arose around them. Many cultivators had gathered nearby at this moment.

Most of them were scouts from various races, numbering over ten thousand. Of course, there were also some who were particularly bold, coming to watch the excitement or wanting to lend a hand.

Hearing that Yin Qi had actually compromised, many cultivators showed surprise on their faces.

Jiang Han had been making trouble with the Tianyin race for so long, and so many experts of the Tianyin race had been killed. Now, Yin Qi was actually going to let Jiang Han leave and return the soul of that Dao Ancestor Realm expert?

Jiang Han's heart stirred with excitement, but on the surface, he pretended to be nonchalant. He said, "Return the soul first!"

Yin Qi took out a jade seal and said, "Release a few thousand first, let me see your sincerity!"

"Alright!"

A few thousand was nothing to Jiang Han. He directly opened the formation, then took out a spatial artifact and released a few thousand Tianyin clansmen.

"Xiu xiu xiu!"

The few thousand Tianyin clansmen immediately flew away in all directions like frightened birds, quickly hiding in the courtyards.

Jiang Han was still in the ruins, looking up at Yin Qi, extending his hand and saying, "It's your turn!"

His heart was highly tense. First, he was afraid that Yin Qi, Yin Li, and Yan Xin would attack. Second, he was afraid that Yin Qi would go back on his word. What he cared about most now was Ye Wanqiu's soul.

Yin Qi flicked his hand, almost throwing the jade stone over, but he suddenly remembered something, hesitated, and said, "Jiang Han, how about this? I'll have a few Saint Sovereigns and dozens of Heavenly Emperors surrender and let you capture them. Can you release those children? Trade them?"

Jiang Han was stunned. What was Yin Qi doing?

The Great Elder, Yin Jie, and the group of Heavenly Emperors changed their expressions. Let them be hostages? What if Jiang Han tore up the ticket? Why would Yin Qi make such a brain-dead suggestion?

Were these tens of thousands of direct descendants more important than them? How many of these tens of thousands could cultivate to the Heavenly Emperor realm, let alone one or two who could cultivate to the Saint Sovereign realm?

Jiang Han was also stunned. These four Saint Sovereigns and dozens of Heavenly Emperors were definitely more valuable than tens of thousands of Tianyin clansmen. Was Yin Qi disregarding the safety of several Saint Sovereigns and a group of Heavenly Emperors for the sake of his descendants?

Jiang Han pondered for a moment and shook his head, refusing: "No exchange. Hurry up, throw the jade stone over. Don't delay, otherwise I don't mind killing a few thousand more!"

"Alright!"

Yin Qi sighed, flicking the jade stone in his hand, throwing it to Jiang Han.

Jiang Han immediately reached out to grab it. He immediately sensed it, but his expression sank, and he angrily said, "Are you playing me?"

"Uh..."

Yin Qi was stunned and asked, "Playing you how? The soul of that Dao Ancestor Realm expert is sealed inside. There are only a few layers of seals inside, can't you detect it?"

"?"

A question mark appeared in Jiang Han's mind, and then he began to sense again.

After sensing for a while, a murderous intent appeared in his eyes, then the spatial artifact in his hand lit up, and he released a few thousand more Tianyin clansmen.

After releasing the Tianyin clansmen, he released several balls of heavenly fire, burning all these few thousand Tianyin clansmen alive.

"Jiang Han, are you crazy?"

Yin Qi was furious, shouting, "I have already returned the soul, why are you still slaughtering my clansmen?"

"Returned my ass!"

Jiang Han threw the jade stone back to Yin Qi, saying, "Take a look yourself, what's inside?"

Yin Qi took the jade stone and sensed it, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, he said, "Made a mistake, made a mistake..."

"Buzz ~"

Another jade stone appeared in his hand, exactly the same as the previous one. He sensed it and said, "This time it's correct, how about... you release a few thousand more?"

"I can give you a few thousand corpses, do you want them?"

Jiang Han coldly said, "If you play any more tricks, next time I won't be killing a few thousand, but tens of thousands, hurry up!"

"Alright!"

Yin Qi sighed, throwing the jade stone over, and Jiang Han grabbed it again.

After grabbing it, he sensed it immediately. When he sensed a soul sealed inside, and the aura of the soul was unusually familiar, his whole body trembled with excitement.

"Buzz ~"

At this moment, the space around Jiang Han suddenly fluctuated, and a figure appeared out of thin air.

His eyes shone brightly, and two beams of light instantly entered Jiang Han's soul, instantly sealing Jiang Han's soul.

This figure's hand reached out like lightning, grabbing Jiang Han's neck.

Light shone on his hand, and countless powerful mana surged in, sealing Jiang Han's physical body as well.

"Hoo hoo!"

Yin Qi breathed a sigh of relief. He had been stalling so hard, and a few thousand clansmen had died because of it. Tong Youniao had finally arrived.

It was because he had just sensed Tong Youniao's aura that he had thrown the jade stone sealing Ye Wanqiu's soul to Jiang Han, otherwise he would not have done such a foolish thing.

If Jiang Han obtained the jade stone, he would definitely escape immediately, and it would be very troublesome to pursue him at that time.

Tong Youniao looked very much like a bird, his whole body covered in feathers, with wings on his back, and his nose like an eagle's beak.

He lifted Jiang Han up, glanced at him a few times, and looked at Yin Qi, saying, "Yin Qi, just this little thing has turned Tianyin Continent upside down. Is your Tianyin race even capable?"
