It was like a fated encounter!
Dian Wei and Er 'Lai were stunned when they saw the other party.
They had the same body shape, the same black armor, and the same double halberds in their hands. Only their faces were slightly different.
However, everything else, even their auras, seemed to be the same!
Anyone who looked from the side would probably misunderstand the two of them as twin brothers!
However, Er 'Lai was the only son of Senior Official Fei Lian, a general of Great Shang, how could he have twin brothers?!
At this moment, Grand Preceptor Wen and the others were also stunned.
What was going on?
Only Ye Chen and Lu Bu had smiles on their faces.
The two of them naturally understood what was going on!
Gu Zhi 'Er' Lai met Gu Zhi 'Er' Lai!
It had to be said that this was an extremely interesting matter!
The title Cao Cao gave Dian Wei was not wrong.
There was no relationship between the two of them, but their appearances and auras were very similar!
However, after being summoned by the system, Dian Wei had entered the path through martial arts and directly possessed the cultivation of a Primordial Immortal.
Er 'Lai, on the other hand, had only reached the True Immortal fleshly body level not long ago.
Gu Zhi Er 'Lai had surpassed Gu Zhi Er' Lai!
It had to be said that this was a pity.
Otherwise, if the two of them were at the same realm, who knew who would be stronger?
Ye Chen shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his heart. He said calmly,"This is Dian Wei, a brave warrior who came to join the merchants. I have already conferred him the title of our Great Shang's general, Battle Maniac.”
Dian Wei?
Everyone was startled. They immediately cupped their hands towards Dian Wei and said,"Greetings, General Dian Wei!"
They naturally wouldn't doubt Ye Chen's judgment. In Great Shang, those who could be conferred the title of General were not ordinary people!
Furthermore, he was a general with a title!
"Dian Wei…"
Er 'Lai muttered in a low voice, his gaze still fixed on Dian Wei.
For some reason, he had a strange feeling that the king's new general, Zhan Kuang, seemed to have some kind of connection with him.
However, he had never seen anyone who looked so similar to him before…
After a moment of silence, Er 'Lai shook his head and thought that he had sensed wrongly.
After all, the world was so big that there were all kinds of wonders!
Weren't Zheng Lun and Chen Qi very similar?
However, the two of them were not related at all. They were only apprenticed to West Kunlun's Daoist Master Du 'e!
Thinking of this, Er 'Lai suppressed the emotions in his heart and also cupped his hands towards Dian Wei."Er 'Lai greets General Dian Wei!"
Dian Wei also suppressed his thoughts and grinned. He cupped his hands and returned the greeting."Greetings, General Er 'Lai, and my fellow colleagues!”
After greeting each other, everyone looked at Ye Chen.
Wen Zhong cupped his hands and said," Your Majesty, the remaining members of the Jiuli Race are all under your control. How do you want to deal with them?"”
Ye Chen was silent for a moment before he said,"Let's go back and take a look first!"”
"Yes!"
Wen Zhong nodded. He then looked at Lu Xiong and Er 'Lai and said,"Generals, you will lead the army and rush over. The King and I will fly first.”
"Yes, Grand Preceptor!"
Lu Xiong and Er 'Lai cupped their hands and accepted the order.
Soon after, Ye Chen and the others mounted their mounts and headed back toward the Jiuli Tribe.
Everyone here was extraordinary. Even Ye Chen had the Purple Jade Kylin as a means of transportation, so his speed was naturally not ordinary.
In less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Ye Chen once again saw the Jiuli Tribe surrounded by mountains.
However, the Nine Li Tribe was in a mess. Countless houses had collapsed or were buried by the mountains. It was no longer the paradise it had been before.
The remaining members of the Jiuli Tribe were all gathered in the center of the tribe, surrounded by the Shang army.
Lei Kai, Zheng Lun, Chen Qi, Ji Li, and Yu Qing each led an army and guarded a direction.
When they saw Ye Chen and the others return, the generals went forward and bowed.
After another round of pleasantries, Ye Chen looked straight at the Jiuli clansmen in the middle.
At first glance, most of them were wearing animal skins, like primitive people who had yet to develop. Their gazes were filled with hatred when they looked at Ye Chen and the others!
In terms of numbers, there were probably no less than 200,000 people, and most of them were the elderly, women, and children!
Almost all the warriors of the Jiuli Race had died in this battle. Because of this, Great Shang had lost tens of thousands of soldiers, especially the 3,000 elite Flying Tiger Army led by Lei Kai. They had all been wiped out, and only Lei Kai had escaped.
Therefore, Ye Chen had never felt that the Jiuli Tribe was innocent or pitiful!
Those who are not of our race must have different hearts!
Although the Jiuli Race had the bloodline of the Human Race, they claimed to be descendants of Chiyou. Naturally, they did not have any feelings for the Human Race!
Moreover, he had already chosen to destroy the Jiuli Race.
Then it was even more impossible for him to be soft-hearted and let the Jiuli Race off!
The seventy-two allied armies had already dispersed.
He could use this opportunity to completely destroy the Jiuli Race and let the vassals of the world take this as a warning!
Ye Chen's eyes turned cold as he thought of this. He looked at the pairs of eyes filled with hatred and said indifferently,""Do it! No one will be spared in Jiuli!"
" King?!"
Wen Zhong and the others were instantly shocked!
Leave no one alive?
This was a complete extermination!
No one expected Ye Chen to be so cold.
This was hundreds of thousands of people!
For a moment, not only the Great Shang soldiers, but even the Jiuli Race was in an uproar.
They also did not expect Ye Chen to make such a decision!
Panic and fear appeared on many people's faces. Some of them were indignant and aggressive, shouting things like " Kill them all! Fight!"
No one could face death calmly!
Even though the leaders of the Jiuli Race had died in battle and most of their warriors had been killed, they wanted to live on more than to hate each other.
Upon seeing this scene, the expressions of Wen Zhong and the others changed slightly.
Although most of these Jiuli survivors were old, weak, women, and children, if they really decided to exterminate their entire clan, they would definitely not bow their necks and be killed. If these hundreds of thousands of people fought back before they died, the Shang army would also lose many people!
Wen Zhong stepped forward and cupped his hands. Moreover, the Jiuli Tribe is already on the verge of being crippled. The rest of them are no longer a threat to our dynasty. If we kill too many people, it will harm the peace of the world. Your Majesty, please consider it carefully!”
"Your Majesty, please consider it carefully!"
The other generals also went forward to persuade him.
Ye Chen was unmoved. His expression was indifferent as he said,"There's no need to say anything else. I've made up my mind! Since the Jiuli remnants dared to rebel against the human race, they had to be prepared to suffer the consequences!”
The generals 'expressions froze. They sighed softly when they saw Ye Chen's cold expression.
The fate of the Jiuli Clan seemed to have been decided by Ye Chen's words…
"Respected Great Merchant Emperor…"
All of a sudden, just as the atmosphere was getting tense, an old voice rang out from the direction of the people from the Jiuli Race.
This voice was not loud, but at this moment, many people in the Nine Li Clan stopped talking and turned to look at a certain spot in the crowd.
Ye Chen and the others also turned around and saw an old figure wrapped in a black robe walking out shakily from the crowd.
Many of the Jiuli Tribe members bowed respectfully when they saw the old figure.
"Who are you?" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes.”
The old woman ignored the salutations of the Jiuli Tribe members. Her wrinkled face revealed a respectful expression as she slowly knelt down toward Ye Chen and bowed."I am the High Priest of the Jiuli Race. Greetings, Your Majesty! I wish the Human Emperor a long life and that Great Shang will not decline for all eternity!”
" I am here to represent the entire Jiuli Race and offer my sincerest repentance to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will be merciful and have mercy on my race. Please give my race a way out. I am willing to offer the precious treasure of my Jiuli Race to Your Majesty!”
After saying that, the High Priest's expression was sorrowful as he prostrated himself on the ground.
The surroundings were silent.
When the other members of the Jiuli Tribe saw the High Priest's reaction, many of them looked furious. They wanted to say something but stopped.
However, when he saw the Shang soldiers glaring at him, he stopped in his tracks and looked down.
A treasure of the Jiuli Clan?
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and reevaluated the High Priest of the Jiuli Tribe.
Name: Li Ming
[Identity: High Priest of the Jiuli Race]
[Constitution: Prophet's Holy Body]
[Cultivation Technique: None]
[Cultivation: None]
[Magic Weapon: Lianyao Flask]
Loyalty: 0
…
Demon Purification Gourd?
Ye Chen's eyes moved and he was shocked.
The Devil Refining Gourd was one of the Primordial Divine Artifacts. It contained a chaotic space that could refine all the violent and evil Qi in the world. It was the nemesis of almost all demons!
But wasn't this item with Nüwa?
Why was he in the Jiuli Race?
Ye Chen's heart was filled with shock.
Legend had it that the Devil Refining Gourd was a rare treasure that Goddess Nvywa had created based on the Divine Weapon, the Creation Immortal Cauldron. It contained the Qi of Creation. After countless years of nurturing, its essence was probably not inferior to that of a Spiritual Treasure!
However, this divine weapon had always been in the hands of Goddess Nvywa. Why was it in the hands of the Jiuli Race now?!
At this moment, the High Priestess saw that Ye Chen did not speak for a long time. After a moment of silence, she took out an ancient, pitch-black small pot. The small pot was only the size of a normal gourd. It was wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. There were dense and strange patterns engraved on it, and it was filled with an ancient and heavy aura.
The High Priest respectfully raised the small pot above his head and said,""Esteemed Human Emperor, this item is the holy item of our Jiuli Tribe, the Jiuli Pot. I am willing to offer this item to Your Majesty. I hope that Your Majesty can forgive the sins of our Jiuli Tribe!”
[Devil Refining Gourd: A Postnatal spiritual treasure. It is refined from the Primordial Spirit Stones and the Qi of Creation. It contains the world in the gourd. It can absorb all things in the world and refine evil Qi.]
Ye Chen's gaze focused on the small pot. His True Eye automatically scanned the small pot's information.
"It really is the Devil Refining Gourd…"
Ye Chen's eyes flashed.
Although Ye Chen did not know why this magic treasure was in the hands of the Jiuli Race, he was tempted!
There was no doubt about the preciousness of a Postnatal spirit treasure!
" But is it worth it to pardon the Jiuli tribe for such a treasure…"
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes.
To be honest, he didn't think much of the Jiuli Race, who was almost crippled, and he wasn't worried that they would do anything to him.
The reason why he insisted on exterminating the Jiuli Race was firstly because of the system's mission, and secondly because he was the Great Merchant Emperor. In the face of a traitor, he had to show the dignity and aura of a human emperor. He had to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys and let the world see the outcome of a traitor.
However, Ye Chen hesitated when he saw the Devil Refining Gourd.
Although he could choose to destroy the Jiuli Race first and then take the Devil Refining Gourd, he was not afraid.
However, the nature of the Nine Li Clan taking it out was different from him taking it out himself!
Moreover, if the High Priest had not mentioned it, he would not have known that the Jiuli Race had such a divine weapon!
Now, in order to save the Jiuli Clan, the High Priest had taken the initiative to take out the Devil Refining Gourd.
If he killed her now and took the Devil Refining Gourd by force, he would definitely cause karma.
Moreover, to be honest, he disdained to do so!
Unless he didn't want this magic treasure!
However, if he didn't want the treasure that he had obtained, was there something wrong with his brain?
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment.
But after a moment, his eyes suddenly flashed." The system only requested to destroy the Jiuli Race, but it didn't seem to say that it must kill all the people of the Jiuli Race…"
