Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1466: The Mysterious Holy Mansion
"Hoo——"
The heavy atmosphere lingered for quite a while before Ye Xuan exhaled heavily, opened his eyes and asked, "What are the casualties?"
"George and Roger were unfortunately hit in critical areas and are already gone."
Luo Qing walked up to Ye Xuan, sighed and said, "And several from Burton’s group also suffered various injuries. Brode and Char just couldn’t hold on."
Ye Xuan turned his head and saw the corpses of Purgatory’s two Divine Weapons already placed on the grass outside the battle circle.
Burton and the other old guys were also in various states of injury, especially Brode and Char, afflicted with terminal illnesses, were barely clinging to life.
The whole scene was solemn, and nobody uttered unnecessary words.
This is what war is like.
Even though Ye Xuan’s battle plan was perfectly executed, leading hundreds of injured from Purgatory to utterly destroy the grand mercenary alliance of over fourteen hundred, their side still inevitably faced losses.
Such losses were already minimized...
Ye Xuan stepped forward, reached out, and closed the eyes of his two brothers without saying much and then looked over to Brode and Char.
These old fellows, though still alive, had no hope of survival.
Ye Xuan sighed, looking sincerely at the two and said, "In this war, you have repaid Purgatory greatly. You can leave at ease. On this land, no one dares to touch your family."
"Thank you, thank you, Black Emperor!" Brode and Char smiled weakly and said, "Black Emperor, do not blame yourself. Fighting alongside you is the greatest honor of our lives. We were already close to death anyway, to die like this is still not a regret in life!"
Ye Xuan nodded: "Is it painful?"
Brode and Char: "The feeling of bleeding is truly uncomfortable."
Ye Xuan: "I’ll see you on your way."
Brode and Char were overjoyed: "It’s our honor!"
Ye Xuan closed his eyes.
The Dragon Blood Sword trembled slightly.
The two old men left this world with smiles.
Ye Xuan turned around, expressionless, standing tall like an invincible War God. Silent, no one knew what he was thinking.
But everyone could feel that at this moment, Ye Xuan was in pain internally.
It was unnecessary to say more, so he refrained from speaking.
"Take them back to Dragon Blood Castle for a proper burial."
He said softly, lifting his steps towards the limb-less Satan.
Burton and the others were utterly shocked.
The rule on this land was that only the Divine Warriors of Purgatory had the right to be properly buried within a hundred miles of Dragon Blood Castle, yet now, Black Emperor actually intended to bury Brode and Char on Purgatory’s land?
This was the highest honor for them!
For their families, it was also the greatest honor!
"You two brothers, you were remarkable people!" Burton held their bodies, tears streaming down.
Ye Xuan arrived before Satan.
Although Satan had his limbs severed, he was temporarily not dead.
Seeing Ye Xuan appear before him again, the pale-faced Satan twisted his mouth in a reckless laugh: "Hahaha, how does it feel, Black Emperor, losing your brothers and friends must be quite uncomfortable, right?"
Ye Xuan looked at Satan indifferently: "Who made you do this?"
"Does it matter?" Satan sneered, "Purgatory claims righteousness, bringing stability to this land that should have been chaotic for so many years. There are many who want to eradicate you; Satan’s legion is one of them. Isn’t today’s situation rather normal?"
Ye Xuan lifted the Dragon Blood Sword, the tip lightly and slowly tracing across Satan’s body, opening an extremely long blood trail.
But not to kill.
Satan gritted his teeth; this slow and continuous agony was the most brutal punishment!
Ye Xuan continued to lightly trace and ask, "Who made you do this?"
Satan glared at Ye Xuan full of resentment, wanting to make a desperate attempt, yet his physical condition long denied him, leaving him to endure all the pain.
But Satan was a wise man.
He knew, as long as he didn’t speak, with Black Emperor’s methods, he could certainly torture him day by day; as long as Black Emperor wished, he would never die!
"What good is it to say? You can’t do anything!" Satan sneered, "Black Emperor, don’t assume you’re truly invincible in this world, there are those stronger than you, forces more frightening than Purgatory!"
Ye Xuan continued his actions: "Who made you do this?"
"Fuck! Fuck!" Satan cursed, "Black Emperor, you bastard, bastard!"
He was nearly at his limit.
Ye Xuan asked coldly, "Who made you do this?"
Satan finally broke.
"The Holy Mansion, it’s the Holy Mansion!" Satan shouted, "Kill me, Black Emperor, if you are a man, just kill me!"
Ye Xuan asked again, "What kind of force is the Holy Mansion?"
"I don’t know, I’m just their puppet!" Satan yelled, "All I know is their influence spans worldwide, their ambition is enormous! They... they are not something you can provoke!"
Ye Xuan gave the sword a shake.
Satan fell silent forever.
"Holy Mansion..."
Ye Xuan looked up at the sky, eyes narrowing darkly, murderous intent so intense that even eagles cried in fear.
Ye Xuan didn’t know when he had built enmity with the Holy Mansion, maybe it started from Purgatory’s rule over this land, or possibly from events after he returned to Yan Country.
But none of that mattered now.
Because no matter what, that mysterious and subtle Holy Mansion had become his mortal enemy! A fight to the death!
The true nature of the Holy Mansion’s power, their actual strength, remains unclear, but it’s certain that far off in Yanzi City, the Wang Family might have secret ties with the Holy Mansion, the instigators of this war—could they be from the Wang Family?
Wait and see...
Ye Xuan squinted his eyes slightly.
With Satan’s dead, this war had come to its complete end.
Ye Xuan sheathed the Dragon Blood Sword, turned, and walked towards the direction beyond the mountains: "Prepare yourselves, another war awaits us."
Purgatory’s Divine Warriors followed Ye Xuan in formidable formation heading beyond the mountains.
Luo Qing followed closely behind Ye Xuan, hesitating for a long time, yet unable to resist asking: "Brother Black Emperor, what do you mean, there’s another war?"
"The Holy Mansion’s people." Ye Xuan said lightly.
"The ones who started this war?" Luo Qing was dumbfounded: "They’ve come too? Why didn’t they fight with Satan’s legion?"
"The mountain forest is perilous, unsuitable for their battles." Ye Xuan replied, "Stay vigilant and be ready to kill them all."
Luo Qing was full of confusion but did not say more.
If Brother Black Emperor says there’s another war, then surely there is. Just listen to him!
