Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Soul Search, Judgment—Great Xia Does Not Need Sinners; Those Who Break the Law Shall Pay With Their Lives!

In each pair of sharp eyes, a calm and determined light flickered.

Their steps were steady and powerful, akin to moving mountains, giving an unshakeable sense of oppression.

The aura of cultivation was all above the Seventh Grade Grandmaster Level, and the powerful surges of Qi Blood roared like tides.

Forming an invisible barrier of pressure, it enveloped the heads of all these prodigies.

Besides, every Great Xia Law Enforcement Squad Martial Artist exuded a unique aura.

It originated from the fusion of iron and blood, like the hardening fierceness hammered out in a forge, or the valiant spirit tempered in the frontier battlefield.

That aura was deep and intense, silently recounting their countless moments on the edge of life and death.

With flesh and blood, they opposed the endless slaughter of Exotic Beast tides.

Their gazes were as deep as an abyss, like ancient rocks hardened by storms, resolute and stern.

Each scar imprinted on their skin was a badge of bloody battle, silently narrating tales of life and death struggles.

The unyielding will seemed like a sharp sword honed in life and death duels, pointing towards the heavens, fearless and dauntless.

This atmosphere permeated around, forming an indescribable deterrent force.

Making everything around seem small and pale in the face of this aura of iron and blood courage.

Witnessing this scene, the fear deep within the prodigies from the Mainline Human Race surged like a tide.

Their legs shook uncontrollably, their faces pale as paper.

In their eyes, undisguisable terror and unease were evident.

It was as if the chilling cold from Great Xia’s Martial Artists could pierce through bone, striking straight to the soul. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

At this moment, these prodigies were like fledgling birds leaving the nest for the first time, facing unknown yet fierce enemies, their anxiety and panic magnified infinitely.

Every heartbeat was as intense as a drumbeat, echoing within their chests, reminding them of their perilous situation.

Compared to the Great Xia Martial Artists seasoned in battle and accustomed to killing, the life experiences of these Mainline Human Race prodigies seemed too immature.

The life and death battles they had experienced seemed more akin to child’s play, not worth mentioning.

The Great Xia Martial Artists bore the marks of time and war on their bodies, the steadiness and decisiveness honed through trials, unattainable for these greenhouse flowers.

Just like buds nurtured carefully, having never weathered storm and rain, or endured the baptism of harsh winters and scorching summers.

When the real storm comes, they are shocked to find themselves so powerless to withstand the fierce external impact.

Soon after, in the following time, Great Xia Martial Artists, weapon in hand, approached with cold gazes, starting to capture and detain, clean the battlefield.

Although those Great Xia Martial Artists strode with long steps, heads held high, presenting an unguarded posture,

in reality, their deep eyes hid sharp eagle-like vigilance, constantly perceiving every surrounding movement.

In that seemingly calm environment, an undercurrent surged.

Should any prodigy from the Mainline Human Race move slightly, whether attempting a sneak attack or plotting secretly, nothing could escape their keen senses.

Behind those Great Xia Martial Artists, an invisible giant net silently spread wide, ready to deliver a thunderous blow.

And that blow was no small matter, surely a killer technique honed through countless life-and-death trials.

Once launched, like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, it would instantly penetrate the enemy’s heart, leaving no room for counterattack.

That swiftness and ferocity were not only in their powerful strength.

But also in the precise timing and the lessons of combat experiences.

Enough to let any with a trace of luck perish in an instant to the underworld.

In fact, were it not for the Great Xia high-ups temporarily considering these people a part of the Human Race and preparing to act, no captives would be left.

After all, simply looking at their usual approach to evil cultists, wiping them out utterly, and their extermination of various Exotic Beasts shows Great Xia’s usual method of operation.

As long as they can be killed, there’s absolutely no mercy.

Before long, all Mainline Human Race prodigies were dispersed of their Qi Blood, losing any ability to fight.

It’s also at this time that the many Great Xia Law Enforcement Squad Martial Artists slightly relaxed their vigilance a bit.

Their stern expressions softened somewhat.

While escorting and cleaning the battlefield, they chatted casually.

"I really didn’t expect Lord Dongfang came from behind, forcefully mastering the Sunflower Manual to a level even higher than that Heavenly Human Transformation Ninth Grade powerhouse."

"Yes! Moving like a ghost! That local Ninth Grade was dumbstruck! Completely not expecting such speed!"

"These rookies actually surrendered directly! Truly a bunch of greenhouse flowers! Today’s Martial Artists are just not as good as the previous ones!"

"Our younger generation of Great Xia is still capable, just that these so-called Mainline Human Race juniors are disgraceful!"

"Bah! How dare they call themselves Mainline? Just a bunch of backward natives ruled by Noble Sects! No different from those Small Secret Realms! At most, the place is many times bigger!"

"..."

On the side, the detained Mainline prodigies heard these words, their faces showing expressions of astonishment, grief, or anger.

But at this moment, having become prisoners, whatever mental activities they had could no longer affect the harsh reality.

At present, all they could do was pray that Great Xia wouldn’t kill them, grasping at that last chance of survival.

From the start of the battle to its end, the entire process took less than ten minutes.

Thus, an exploration team from a certain faction of the Mainline Human Race was completely captured and taken away.

Besides, almost simultaneously, similar battles appeared near dozens of cities.

Great Xia would either not act, but once they did, it was with thunderous force.

In an instant, exploration teams dispatched by the Mainline Human Race were already ninety percent vanquished.

The remaining one or two could only flee like stray dogs and hide frantically.

As for later, the Three Giants of Great Xia had long been prepared.

Basically, the leading Eighth Grade Grandmaster, Ninth Grade Peak, would surely undergo interrogation with the Soul-Searching and Soul-Seizing Hand technique.

Firstly, to extract more information, and secondly, to indirectly assess how those prodigy disciples should be dealt with.

Although Great Xia didn’t care about the cultivation of these people, it’s still good to consider other aspects.

For those prodigies, they’d all be judged in accordance with the past Great Xia laws.

Those who maliciously oppressed ordinary people, resulting in deaths or injuries, were all sentenced to death.

Even if the victims were from the Mainline Human Race, Great Xia avenged them too.

As for imprisonment years, labor reform, exterminating Exotic Beasts to offset penalties,

they’ve long been abolished now.

For breaching Great Xia laws, there is only one outcome, and that is death.

No matter the severity, only death can atone!
