Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A year later, Great Xia Kingdom, Devil Slayers Division.
“Director, there is an urgent letter.”
II
Give it to me.”
Lu Yuan took the envelope from his subordinate and began to read it seriously.
There wasn’t much content in the letter, but the situation described made Lu Yuan frown.
The letter described that the Great Liang Kingdom controlled by the three Devilish Sects had begun a large-scale invasion of the five Righteous Sects.
In the letter, the Great Liang army was divided into three groups.
The three Devilish Sects each led a group of troops and Devil Cultivators to attack the various countries.
The Great Xia Kingdom, which was controlled by the Qingyun Sect, had to face the entire army of Xueyang Sect.
It could be considered a one-on-one battle between Xueyang Sect and Qingyun Sect.
Lu Yuan was actually not surprised that the Great Xia Kingdom would be involved in the conflict between cultivators.
After all, no matter how significant the reason for the battle between the righteous and demonic paths was, ultimately, their reason for fighting was for more resources.
Mortals were naturally within the scope of the resources they fought for.
The appearance of this battle report meant that the Great Xia Kingdom would no longer be facing a pure mortal battle.
Instead, it was a fierce battlefield between cultivators and mortals.
Not long after Lu Yuan received the battle report.
He immediately received an order from the sect.
Although the order was brief, it was very serious.
Lu Yuan was tasked to mobilize the practitioner in the Demon Slayers Department to help the Great Xia Kingdom’s army resist the attack of the devilish army.
He was also told that the battlefield was not limited to the mortal army.
It could even be said that the battlefield that Lu Yuan was about to participate in could be considered one of the less intense ones on the entire battlefield.
The truly intense battlefield was actually the one at the Full Moon Mountain Range, which was located at the border of the six countries.
This was the battlefield of both Righteous and Devil cultivators.
Choosing the Full Moon Mountain Range as the location of the battle was a tacit agreement formed between the righteous and devilish sides over thousands of years.
This was because only by fighting here could they avoid the battle between cultivators and affect the mortals on both sides.
After all, be it the Five Righteous Sects or the Three Devilish Sects, they didn’t want a situation where mortals died on a large scale.
The reason why they would send out mortal armies to attack was not that the army had to do anything. They were sent as a signal.
To let the mortals know that the country they were in…would most likely change a new ruler.
After all, the vast majority of mortals, especially those living in the five Righteous Sects, might not be able to come into contact with the cultivators above them even if they spent their entire lives.
Naturally, they would not know that cultivators were their true rulers.
To let the mortals know that their ruler had changed, starting a war between Empires was undoubtedly the best way to inform them.
Thus, the battle between mortal armies was more of a formality.
This was because the true outcome of the battle would depend on the final outcome of the battle between the cultivators in the Full Moon Mountain Range.
After Lu Yuan understood all this, he also more or less understood his position in this great war between the righteous and devilish path.
The sect asked him to lead the practitioners to join the Great Xia Kingdom’s army.
On the surface, it was to let him join the battle directly.
However, in reality, this was actually a form of protection for him.
This was because the battlefield he was participating in was not the core battlefield of the Righteous and Devilish sides.
Therefore, the enemies that would appear here would at most be cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Compared to the Full Moon Mountain Range, which had elders at the Core Formation stage.
The battlefield that Lu Yuan was going to was undoubtedly much safer. Naturally, it was a form of protection.
Lu Yuan felt that the reason why he was able to get this ‘good errand’ was because he had been able to do so many things.
One reason was that he was the current secretary of the Devil Slayers Division.
The other reason was probably that his master Han Yuanshan was protecting him.
After all, with the addition of the elders, who were at the Core Formation Stage, the battle between the righteous and devilish sects had officially begun.
Judging from the previous battles between the Righteous and Devilish sides, Foundation Establishment cultivators were just cannon fodder in such battles.
At this time, it was undoubtedly impossible for a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Lu Yuan to hide in his sect and escape from the battlefield.
Only by carrying out special missions like what he was doing now could he truly stay away from the main battlefield.
Such a job was certainly not easy to get. Han Yuanshan must have contributed a lot to it.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan’s expression became complicated.
Although his master was usually sharp-tongued and liked to mock him for no reason.
However, in his heart…His master still took good care of him!
Just as Lu Yuan was filled with emotions, Xu Wan’er appeared.
“Young Master, all the practitioners have gathered.”
Lu Yuan was silent for a moment before nodding.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Devil Slayers Division, main hall.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Devil Slayers Division, other than some practitioners who were on missions outside, the remaining practitioners from the headquarters had all gathered here.
With the arrival of Lu Yuan and Xu Wan’er, the practitioners said in unison, “We, the practitioners, pay our respects to Director Green Flame!”
Lu Yuan nodded and then stood in front of the practitioners.
Looking at the black mass of hundreds of practitioners in front of him, Lu Yuan did not immediately tell them the reason for gathering them.
Instead, he said indifferently, “Pass on my orders. Those who meet the above criteria shall step forward.”.
“Those with parents, step forward.”
“Those with wives and children, step forward.”
“The only son in the family, step forward.”
“Those who have wives but no children, step forward.”
“If both father and son are in the office, step forward.”
“Brothers in the army, step forward.”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, more than 200 practitioners walked out after some hesitation.
This group of people made up one-third of the entire practitioner team.
There were even two golden medallion practitioners among them…Shang Yun and Fang Ru.
Lu Yuan looked at these people and said indifferently, “All of you…Hand over your respective practitioner medallions.”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, everyone who stepped out immediately panicked.
Shang Yun looked at Lu Yuan and said anxiously, “Lord Green Flame, handing over the medallions means that we will be removed from our position as a practitioner!”
“Did we do something that made you unhappy? My lord, why are you doing this to us?”
“Shang Yun, I don’t want to repeat myself. Hand over the practitioner medallions,” Lu Yuan replied indifferently.
Seeing Lu Yuan being so unyielding, Shang Yun and Fang Ru hesitated for a moment before handing over their golden medallions.
When even the practitioners with golden medallions were forced to hand over their practitioner medallions, what could practitioners like them, who were not gold medallions, do?
Thus, in a moment of silence, Lu Yuan placed dozens of practitioners’ medallions of various levels in front of him.
Lu Yuan looked at the practitioners’ medallions in front of him and suddenly waved his hand.
In the next second, these medallions were turned into powder in the fierce green flames.
Shang Yun and the others watched as their medallions disappeared in front of their eyes, and their faces revealed reluctant expressions.
This was especially true for many people who had spent most of their lives in the Devil Slayers Department. Without the position of practitioners, they did not know what they could do in the future.
Therefore, in addition to the pain, their eyes were also filled with confusion.
Lu Yuan looked at this group of people who had been stripped of their positions as practitioners and said calmly, “From today onwards, you have nothing to do with the Devil Slayers Department.”
“In the future, the Devil Slayers Division will not issue any more orders to you.”
“All of you…are free.”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, everyone was not happy. Instead, they started crying.
Although they had gained their freedom, they had lost their purpose for living.
Even a great practitioner like Shang Yun couldn’t help but cry.
As for the practitioners who still retained their positions, they also looked sad, feeling as if they were grieving the death of their colleague.
The atmosphere in the Devil Slayers Division instantly became extremely oppressive.
Lu Yuan did not have any intention of comforting them. Instead, he gave his final order. “Those who are not practitioners, leave quickly. You are no longer needed here.”
Shang Yun looked at the indifferent Lu Yuan and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he, who had lived there for most of his life, left the Devil Slayers Division with his wife, Fang Ru.
However, his back looked much older.
Looking at their colleague of many years being reduced to such a state, the Golden-ranked Great Practitioner, Lion-ape, and Iron-ox, were about to say something when they were interrupted by Lu Yuan’s gaze.
Left with no choice, the Liona-pe and Iron-ox could only choose to shut up.
After the sixty-two people left, Lu Yuan looked at the hall that had become much emptier and said coldly, “Everyone, before I tell you the reason for gathering all of you, I have to ask you a question.”
“All of you…Are you ready to face death?”
