In the entire hall, there were only the voices of the Lin family.
Although these people did not dare to say anything because of their nervousness and apprehension, they despised Lin Chong and Lin Sheng.
But now that the Lin family is in power, they can only despise it in their hearts.
"The Lord has arrived!"
Wang Wei gave a loud shout and immediately welcomed Tie Xiao into the Lingwei Hall.
The nerves of everyone in the hall suddenly became tense.
They all turned around and bowed to greet him.
"There's no need to be so nervous. I only need resources and no human lives." Tie Xiao smiled faintly, walked through the empty passage in the center of the crowd, and went straight to the highest chair in the palace.
When everyone heard that Tie Xiao asked for resources, not only were they not angry, but they all became much more relaxed.
Knowing what Tie Xiao Tude was, they were relieved. I'm afraid that this devil has many tricks and can torture them to death even if he doesn't kill them.
On the high seat, Tie Xiao looked down at everyone and said with a smile: "Since the beginning of the conflict between me and the various forces in Daliang, what I have always wanted is cultivation resources. To put it bluntly, it is an open robbery. As long as you are more obedient and generous, I will have nothing. It is necessary to take anyone's life. However, there are too many people who clearly have no strength but are overconfident in their bones, so they die at the hands of me. Some people want to die, but I have no need to be merciful. Do you think what I said makes sense? "
"The Lord's words are reasonable. It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes. If they do not know the current affairs and die unexpectedly, who can we blame? Whenever the Lord opens his mouth, I, the Lin family, will obey!" Lin Zhong hurriedly bowed and shouted.
"The Lin family..." Tie Xiao smiled playfully, "The Lin family is good. Then please ask the Lin family to hand over 10 million Yuan stones. If you don't have enough Yuan stones, you can use spiritual materials of equivalent value to offset the number. Ten million dollars can only be used More cannot be less.”
Lin Zhong's face twitched slightly, ten million yuan stones!
Even if the Lin family is a big family, it would be a big deal to take out such a large amount of Yuan Stone.
Although Lin Zhong had a big head, he still had a smile on his face and said: "The Lin family obeys the order. Lin Sheng, go back and collect the primeval stones and spiritual materials. No matter what, you must gather a sufficient amount and send it to the Lord as soon as possible."
Lin Sheng cupped his fists and said, "Yes. Your Lord, Lin Sheng will leave first."
Tie Xiao nodded.
After Lin Sheng left, Tie Xiao's eyes fell on the faces of the others.
Everyone's face twitched, this Tie Xiao really didn't discredit himself, he just robbed...
Intelligent people came forward one after another and expressed their willingness to hand over tens of millions of yuan.
It cost ten million yuan to keep their family safe. Although it hurt, it was worth it.
The heads of the major families retreated one after another and went home to collect Yuan Stone.
Tie Xiao said calmly: "The men from the Qingtian Division and the Bronze Rhinoceros Guards came out."
Wang Wei and Zhang Duo's eyes trembled. Do they also want to hand over the Yuan Stone?
In a moment of depression, Wang Wei and Zhang Duo, along with the Taoist Realm monks from Qingtian Division and Bronze Rhinoceros Guards, stood up.
Tie Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you have any objections to each of you handing over five million yuan of stone?"
"I have no objection!" Wang Wei was the first to shout.
"I have no objection!"
There were sounds one after another, one after another. It was visible to the naked eye that one was reluctant but had to accept it.
Tie Xiao knew that no one would be willing to do this kind of thing, but as long as these people agreed, it would be fine.
"Then go back and prepare the Yuan Stone. Wang Wei stays." Tie Xiao ordered.
Wang Wei looked happy and quickly responded respectfully: "Yes."
At this time, Tie Xiao turned his attention to those who had been serving as guardians of the imperial city for many years.
"I am not familiar with you, and I don't know what your character is like. Although you claim to be a guardian of the Way, I trust Wang Wei more. Therefore, I plan to extract some of your cultivation as a check and balance. Do you have any objections? "Tie Xiao said lightly.
The expressions of the twelve defenders changed drastically. Tie Xiao wanted to extract their cultivation?
"Honored Lord, since we have surrendered, we will definitely be loyal." A guardian worshiper said hurriedly.
Tie Xiao said lightly: "I am not familiar with you, so how can I trust you? It would be safer to weaken you a little."
The worshiper smiled bitterly and said: "The Lord is so powerful that he can cut into the Void Realm. Why should he care about our cultivation? Although we are in the Dao Realm, in front of the Lord, we can just do whatever we want. There’s something to be said for that!”
Tie Xiao smiled lightly and said: "You are right, you really do not pose any threat in front of me. I want to weaken your strength for the sake of the new Emperor Liang."
The new Liang Huang?
Everyone looked confused.
Tie Xiao captured the imperial city, but he still wants to return the imperial city to the Liang family? Otherwise, why would he still be called Emperor Liang?
Who among the Liang family is Tie Xiao trying to support to be this puppet?
For a moment, everyone began to speculate.
Wang Wei's eyes flashed downward. He had already heard from Tie Xiao that Tie Xiao had no intention of imperial power, but he never expected that the puppet Tie Xiao supported was one of the Liang family members.
"No more words to say, I don't like to be long-winded. If any of you are unwilling, I can only forcefully devour all of your cultivation. If you obey voluntarily, I will keep it for you until you reach the first level of Dao Realm. ." Tie Xiao's eyes turned cold and he threatened.
Is it death, or active submission?
As everyone's faces twitched, they knew exactly what to choose.
"I am willing to offer sacrifices to improve my cultivation!" The man who asked about the realm just now said with tears in his eyes.
When it comes to cultivating the realm, one level requires at least ten years of practice. They are all at the eighth or ninth level. If they suddenly fall to the seventh or eighth level of cultivation, it is equivalent to losing nearly a hundred years of achievements in one fell swoop.
Who doesn’t feel sad and heartbroken!
Tie Xiao didn't say much, he raised his hand to devour the guardian worshiper.
As he opened his palm, a terrifying devouring force instantly enveloped it, and then the power of spiritual energy in the body of the defender surged out and flowed towards Tie Xiao's palm.
The faces of the guardian priests all turned pale, and their eyes were filled with sadness.
Tie Xiao said lightly: "Compared to death, I only lost a little bit of cultivation. You should feel lucky! I was able to keep you all in my mist body before."
When everyone thought about it, it was... at least they survived!
"Thank you Lord for not killing me!"
"There is no need to thank me. There are always gains and losses in life. If you care too much, you will become pessimistic and find it difficult to follow the path. Whether it is life or martial arts, it is good to be alive. As long as you are alive, there is still hope!" Tie Xiao said lightly.
Everyone was astonished. This devil was cruel and ruthless, but he was also trying to kill them?
What kind of temperament does this Tie Xiao have?
Among the twelve defenders, none of them escaped, and all of them were devoured by Tie Xiao. In the end, the cultivation levels of the twelve people all fell to the first level of the Dao Realm.
"Back off." Tie Xiao waved his hand.
Everyone retreated.
"Wang Wei, I promised you that I would give you a top spiritual skill. It's time to fulfill my promise to you now." Tie Xiao smiled slightly.
Wang Wei looked very excited and knelt on his knees and said: "Thank you, Lord!"
Tie Xiao smiled slightly, and a touch of soul consciousness moved through the air and disappeared into Wang Wei's eyebrows.
The moment the information flooded out, Wang Wei's pupils widened, and his face flushed with excitement.
