"You... you’re going to commit murder? You want to annihilate Fusang? You..." The Chief Minister’s face was aghast, unwilling to believe that Wu Tian truly intended to carry out such a heaven-defying act.
It took a long while for him to come to his senses. "No, no, no, this is impossible! In this day and age, who talks about annihilating a country? This era..."
"No matter the era, you will die and Fusang will fall. This is destiny."
As his words fell, Wu Tian’s claw shot out.
SHRRK!
Before the Chief Minister could even react, Wu Tian seized one of his arms. With a single tug, he ripped it clean off, meridians and all. A heart-rending agony ripped through him, forcing a horrific scream from his lips.
"Fusang is guilty, and none bear more guilt than you." A cold, chilling smile curled Wu Tian’s lips. He looked like an Asura emerging from Hell as he proclaimed, "You deserve to suffer death by a thousand cuts!"
"No, you can’t..." the Chief Minister shouted.
But with a flick of Wu Tian’s finger, a streak of Blood Glow shot out. As if it had a mind of its own, it began hacking away at the Chief Minister.
One slash, then another.
"Ahhh..."
The Chief Minister’s pain was a fate worse than death. The agony was so severe that he could not even faint. He could clearly feel his own flesh being brutally flayed from his body, a horrific torment that made his eyes stream with tears and his face twist into a grotesque mask.
"No!"
"Let me go! Let me go... I was wrong!"
"I won’t do it again!"
The Chief Minister screamed miserably, finally collapsing to his knees before Wu Tian. But the pain was too much to bear, and he fell to the ground, writhing in agony.
Watching the live broadcast, the leaders of various nations were aghast. The Chief Minister was, for all intents and purposes, the "leader" of Fusang. Yet Wu Tian dared to treat the Counselor of Fusang this way?
"He’s too arrogant."
"He is, but you have to admit, this Wu Tian is truly terrifying."
"Should a person like him even be allowed to exist on this planet?"
Many leaders pondered this question, their brows furrowed in deep thought. A tree that stands above the forest will be destroyed by the wind.
...
"No! I was wrong!"
"I admit it, Fusang was wrong! We were worse than pigs and dogs to invade the Dragon Country out of greed all those years ago!"
"Our Fusang soldiers aren’t human! For our own ambitions, we became despicable and shameless, stopping at nothing in battle!"
"We men of Fusang are beasts! When we invaded the Dragon Country, we didn’t even spare seven-year-old girls!"
"We Fusang people aren’t human! Even after being recognized as a defeated nation, we’ve always dreamed of conquering the Dragon Country again!"
"I’m not human either! I’ve been unscrupulous in pursuit of my goals!"
Slice by slice, the Chief Minister’s flesh was flayed from his bones. Blood flowed freely, and strips of flesh peeled away from his body. Unable to bear such anguish, the Chief Minister thrashed on the ground, begging Wu Tian for mercy. "Our Fusang ancestors were beasts! They were truly beasts... Now... can you spare me now?"
"You are only speaking the truth. Why should I spare you for that?"
To escape the torture, the Chief Minister slandered his ancestors in the most degrading way possible, but Wu Tian had no intention of letting him off so easily.
The Blood Glow worked quickly, reducing the Chief Minister to a bloody skeleton amidst his own screams. Blood stained the earth crimson. Flesh and viscera were carved away and left in a nauseating pile on the ground.
"The Emperor of Fusang and the Chief Minister are both dead. Next, it’s time to make the people of Fusang abandon all hope, acknowledge that their nation is destroyed, and accept that this island now belongs to the Dragon Country!"
"As long as the sun does not go out, Fusang will not perish!"
"As long as the sun does not go out, Fusang will not perish!"
"..."
The Fusang Self-Defense Force, 270,000 strong, arrived at the Beihai Grand Path, shouting their defiant cry. From a distance, Wu Tian could already hear their words.
"Fusang will perish today!"
Using his sheath as a sword, Wu Tian said, "Qiao’er, let’s fight side-by-side once more."
"Okay!" Qiao’er immediately responded.
One man and one sword sheath walked toward the 270,000 soldiers of the Self-Defense Force as the entire world watched.
「Yang City.」
Murong Yezi, Qin Yuhan, the little one, and Little Kirin were all watching the live broadcast. The Kunpeng in the washbasin was also jumping vigorously, catching a glimpse of the broadcast with each leap, having long since lost count of how many times it had jumped.
Qin Yuhan parted her lips slightly and asked, "Sweetheart, do you think your dad can do it?"
When it came to the Martial Path, Qin Yuhan was still an amateur. This time, for Wu Tian’s sake, she swallowed her pride to ask her daughter.
The little one turned around and chuckled. "Of course he can. You have to remember whose dad he is."
Qin Yuhan knew her daughter’s intuition was the legendary "super-intuition." Since the little one said so, Wu Tian would definitely be fine. Murong Yezi also felt her worries ease.
...
Meanwhile, heads of state from various countries quickly summoned the foremost experts of their nation’s Martial Arts World, all asking the same question: "Do you think Wu Tian can possibly stand against the 270,000 troops of the Fusang Self-Defense Force?"
