Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 63 : Before the tyrant, where is your courage

Far from the barren land, a magnificent bustling city stood proudly, with towering walls surrounding it.

On top of the wall were intimidating guards with cultivation not any less than the Body Building realm stage 3.

Below the towering wall was a massive gate that allowed three carriages to move at the same time.

Merchants and people entered orderly, and when they reached the guards, they showed their tags and paid ten silver to enter.

In the city were magnificent buildings and stores. Thousands of people filled the streets, with various vendors calling out to customers.

Various mouth-watering aromas filled the streets, coming from various restaurants.

Moving further was another towering wall, separating the outer region from the inner region.

Inside the region, the streets were clean, with magnificent buildings on both sides.

Most people in the inner region used carriages, and only a handful of people walked.

And from their clothes, they were only maids or servants of some big clans.

In the western part of the inner region, a breathtaking manor stood alone.

In front of the manor gate were guards with deadly sharp weapons. Their intimidating gaze moved back and forth for any intruder.

The leader of the guards was a warrior at the peak of Body Building realm stage 7.

From this, people would know this was not just any ordinary manor.

Inside the manor, in one of its many courtyards, a woman in purple silk, drenched in cold sweat, was practicing her archery.

Suddenly, her brow twitched, and she stopped firing the arrows. She waved her hand, and a small talisman appeared in her palm.

The talisman was pulsating gently in her palm. The woman frowned, and a slight irritation flashed across her face.

'Why would my useless brother use his emergency talisman,' she thought before sending her consciousness into the pulsating talisman.

'Elder sister, save me! They want to kill me! Elder Bo and everyone has died at their hands... Sobbing... Please, save me... I'll do everything you tell me from now on...

Save me from their hands... Save me! Save...'

The message was cut short at the end, but the expression on her face was unsightly.

She clenched her fist tightly, and the talisman in her palm shattered into pieces.

"Who dares touch my younger brother..." She said in a low voice, but a bone-chilling coldness would make anyone shiver.

****

Eastern Barren Land.

In the Celestial Heavenly Sect, Su Yen sat on his throne and looked at the trembling group in front without any expression on his face.

"I'll ask you a couple of questions, and if your response satisfies me... Hmm... I may not kill you immediately," he said calmly.

Below, Wang Bingwen looked at the young man who was not older than twenty years in shock.

The man who controlled the barren land and billions of people was a young star.

How insane was that?!

It was not only him who was astounded; the twins behind him were left flabbergasted with their mouths slightly ajar.

They thought a person who could make the Barren Land fall into his palm must be an old fogey but not this...

As for the three branch managers, they were not surprised but were praying solemnly in their minds.

They knew how ruthless Su Yen was; his calm and pretty demeanor were just a facade.

He would kill and still be smiling.

He wasn't the compassionate and tyrant of Barren Land for nothing.

Looking at the group, Su Yen was getting impatient.

"So you choose to die right away..." His cold voice sent fright down their spines.

At once, they recovered from their trance and looked at Wang Bingwen.

Wang Bingwen swallowed the lump in his throat forcefully and said with a trembling voice.

"W-e..I-I.. will answer everything you want to know."

The twins rolled their eyes in shock when they saw him stuttering in front of a boy younger than him.

Also, from the Barren Land.

However, Wu Bin and the others weren't surprised. The pressure coming from Su Yen was something no ordinary person could withstand.

Quickly, Wang Bingwen confessed everything to Su Yen without hiding anything.

His instinct was telling him if he were to hide something from Su Yen, he wouldn't hesitate to kill him without batting an eye.

With that, he narrated beyond what was asked of him. The arrogant Wang Bingwen turned into an unstoppable chatterbox.

Even shocking the three branch managers.

Until Su Yen couldn't take it anymore and asked him to stop, did he stop talking.

"Throw them in the prison," he commanded.

After Wang Bingwen and the twins were dragged out of the hall, Su Yen turned to look at the three branch managers and said slowly.

"What should I do with you..." He creased his brow.

Branch manager Yu stepped forward and said respectfully, "Our sins demand you to kill us... But we can be more useful to you."

"Really!" Su Yen looked at her interestingly. "Where can you be more useful than I already have people handling it?"

"It's only one place. Your store business. Even though your clan elder is handling it to the best of her capabilities, she is still losing to the merchant families."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes," she nodded confidently.

"I have decades of teaching and experience in running stores before we were sent here. I can say confidently, if we assist you, the profit--"

Bang!

Branch manager Yu was sent flying by an incredible force and slammed into the wall.

Her chest bone shattered into pieces with the sound resounding inside the hall.

On the floor, she puked blood continuously with a pale face. Her breathing got difficult.

As for Wu Bin and Elder Gong, they were trembling vehemently. Panic gripped their hearts, with their backs drenched in cold sweat.

They knew Su Yen was ruthless, but this was the first time they witnessed it.

"Get up now or never get up again," he said, not caring about the trembling duo on the side.

Branch manager Yu grunted forcefully, blood gushing out of her mouth as she struggled to get on her feet.

Her feet were trembling vehemently as if they couldn't withstand the pressure exacted on them. But with gritted teeth, she managed to maintain her standing.

She raised her head and stared at Su Yen's face, but as the time ticked on, her head grew fuzzy.

Su Yen looked at her for a moment and turned to look at the trembling two.

"Kill those two and take care of her injury."
