Most of the Boundless Corporation employees who stayed to work overtime were dumbfounded. Sword Emperor? They had never heard of such a person.
"What are you talking about? I don’t understand at all."
"Exactly. And you’re trespassing at Boundless Corporation, which is against the law."
"You’d better leave now. If you do, we can let bygones be bygones."
These words gave the disciples of the Sea Whale Gang, Iron Palm Gang, and Sea Sand School pause.
These people are all just mortals. Should we really do this? Killing mortals means killing the unarmed and uninvolved.
"What are you hesitating for?" Giant Sea Whale, the Gang Leader of the Sea Whale Gang, roared furiously. "What does killing the innocent matter? If they don’t die, we will!"
The leader of the Sea Sand Gang and the other sect leaders told their disciples the same thing. At the same time, they ordered someone to start a video call. On the other end, connected to a large LCD screen, the Sword Emperor and his retinue were watching.
The Gang Leader of the Sea Whale Gang announced, "The Sword Emperor’s Sword Attendants promised me that as long as we kill Wu Tian’s people and turn against him, the Sword Emperor will protect us and see that justice is done when Wu Tian returns to kill us."
When one sword is drawn, ten thousand swords submit.
To those in the Martial Arts World, this saying was legendary. In their eyes, with the Sword Emperor’s protection, there was no need to fear Wu Tian.
"It seems these people won’t submit to us and stand against Wu Tian."
"Then kill them all!"
Wielding sharp blades, Giant Sea Whale and the others charged at the employees. The thirty-six security guards had also arrived, and a chaotic brawl erupted instantly. But the Sea Whale Gang, Sea Sand Gang, and their allies had the advantage in numbers, and the thirty-six security guards couldn’t protect everyone.
"AH!"
"AH!"
Some employees fell under the flurry of blades swung by the martial artists. Their bodies were hacked and mutilated.
"What... what did we do wrong?"
"I... I can’t die! I can’t die!" one male employee, struck three times and drenched in blood, should have been dead. But he clenched his teeth, driven by an unyielding will to live. "I... I have a wife and kids! My family has no money... If I die... what will happen to them? I... I can’t die!"
Many employees were the same. They gritted their teeth and held on.
The disciples from the minor Jianghu sects were stunned. Even Giant Sea Whale was shaken, never expecting these ordinary mortals to possess such conviction. Slashed multiple times, they still clenched their teeth, refusing to close their eyes.
Their consciousness should have faded into eternal sleep, but they held on, biting their tongues until they bled. They had to stay awake, despite the pain. They knew that if they fell asleep, they would never wake up again. And if they did, what would become of their families?
They were poor people, and Boundless Corporation had given them hope. They couldn’t just vanish, couldn’t just die like this. Their conviction stunned everyone. No one could have imagined that a person could endure one slash, then three or four, and still not die.
The disciples of the Sea Whale Gang grew hesitant. The hands of the disciples from the Sea Sand Gang and other sects, gripping their blades, also began to tremble. They found they could no longer bring themselves to strike the employees.
Giant Sea Whale and the other leaders felt it too, but they were already hardened killers.
"What are you all standing around for?"
"That’s right! In my name as Gang Leader, I command you to kill them! Kill them! Hack them a dozen times! I refuse to believe they won’t die!"
The gang leader’s command was utterly ruthless.

But Giant Sea Whale and the others refused to believe it. Do they think the saying, ’When one sword is drawn, ten thousand swords submit’ is just a joke? Wu Tian might be formidable, but how could he possibly compare to the Sword Emperor?
