Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 199: The Army Approaches, Qin Family Submits!

Chapter 199: Chapter 199: The Army Approaches, Qin Family Submits!

"I am Qin Ye. May I ask which member of the Cyan Yang Divine Court you are?"

Outside the Qin King City, Qin Ye looked at the tens of thousands of Cyan Yang Divine Court cultivators, his eyebrows twitching uncontrollably. Among the cultivators in sight, the weakest could rival Refining Organ cultivators. Most of them had stepped into the Dragon Transformation realm, and some of their auras made him feel a surge of fear.

Clearly,

these cultivators had reached the level of Daoist and were top-tier experts in the entire Ancient Wilderness.

Some Sect Masters of major sects and Elders of the Sacred Lands were merely of the Daoist level.

As for the leader of the group, the hidden yet formidable aura made Qin Ye’s heart tremble violently.

"True Monarch!"

How could Qin Ye ever forget this aura?

"I am Xu Bo, the Young Master of the Xu Family from the Cyan Yang Divine Court. I hope Patriarch Qin hasn’t forgotten the promise made to the Divine Court. The three-day mark has now approached, and the Qin Family should provide a satisfying response to the Divine Court!"

Xu Bo looked at Qin Ye with indifferent eyes, as if ready to annihilate him at the utterance of a single refusal.

After breaking through to the Lower Sixth Tier, Xu Bo’s strength had advanced substantially. While not on par with people like Gu Fang or Zhang Ming, he still belonged to the elite group at the pinnacle.

Throughout the entire Cyan Yang Divine Court, those who could reach the Sixth Tier were extremely limited.

To Xu Bo, Qin Ye’s Fourth Tier Dragon Transformation peak strength was no more significant than an ant.

If not for orders from the Cyan Yang Divine Court to focus mainly on subduing Qin King City, Xu Bo would have already led the other cultivators to obliterate the city.

Decades ago, many Xu Family cultivators had perished at the hands of the Ancient Wilderness, a blood feud that Xu Bo had not forgotten.

However, with the fall of the Three Great Sacred Lands, the old enmity had somewhat diminished. Now, under Divine Court’s orders, Xu Bo dared not defy.

Despite the Xu Family’s strength, they were not powerful enough to challenge the entire Divine Court.

If Qin Ye chose to surrender, they would proceed with capturing Qin King City. If not, the army would purge the city in blood.

Truthfully,

Xu Bo hoped Qin Ye would refuse.

This way, he could annihilate Qin King City entirely.

Regardless of vengeance, the resources within Qin King City were extraordinary. If the city were destroyed, the Xu Family would undoubtedly gain significant benefits.

Although the Qin Family only had Fourth Tier Dragon Transformation cultivators, it was an established power standing for hundreds, if not thousands, of years, possessing considerable assets as a city controller.

While Xu Bo was contemplating, Qin Ye, opposite him, had a shifting expression, hesitantly saying, "I welcome the Cyan Yang Divine Court, but as it involves the entire Qin Family, I alone cannot decide.

So I hope Young Master Xu can extend some patience, allowing me to consult with the other Qin Family members. By then, I will certainly provide a satisfying answer to Young Master Xu!"

At these words,

Xu Bo’s eyes grew cold: "Qin Ye, there’s no need to delay. I didn’t come here to negotiate, but to give you a command.

Today, the Qin Family must either submit or be uprooted with the entire Qin King City; there is no third option."

"Young Master Xu..."

Qin Ye’s expression changed drastically. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Just as he intended to speak, Xu Bo interrupted, "I have no fear in telling you, half a day ago, the Celestial Yang and Tai Xu Two Great Sacred Lands were annihilated. The Ancient Wilderness Three Great Sacred Lands are now history, with only our Cyan Yang Divine Court reigning supreme.

Anyone opposing the Cyan Yang Divine Court will meet a terrible end. I hope Patriarch Qin doesn’t make a grave mistake!"

"What!"

Qin Ye and the Qin Family elders behind him were visibly stunned upon hearing these words.

The Celestial Yang and Tai Xu Two Great Sacred Lands were destroyed?

How many days has it been?

Although these two sacred lands were not equal to the Ancient Wilderness Sacred Land, they had immense foundations. To annihilate them in mere days was utterly shocking.

Truthfully,

Qin Ye couldn’t believe the Cyan Yang Divine Court could wipe out the Two Great Sacred Lands in such a short time, but the imminent threat left him no choice but to act.

Anyone with eyes could see that if the Qin Family refused, the Cyan Yang Divine Court would indeed destroy Qin King City.

As Qin Ye pondered silently, Xu Bo spoke again: "I give you one-quarter of an hour to consider carefully. If you can’t provide a satisfactory answer by then, Qin King City will have no reason to exist."

Such words showed utter disregard for the Qin Family, causing many of its cultivators to glare angrily, wanting nothing more than to charge at Xu Bo.

Yet none acted rashly, as Xu Bo’s terrifying aura left them with no courage to move.

A True Monarch!

Before the Longevity Shackles had dissipated, he was a pinnacle existence in the Ancient Wilderness.

Even now, with the shackles gone, he remained unrivaled.

After all,

no sage-level experts had appeared in the Ancient Wilderness up to this point, with the only one proving the Dao, Gu Tiangang, having already fallen.

Time slowly passed; the city exterior fell into an eerie silence as many cultivators inside Qin King City watched anxiously on behalf of the Qin Family.

They feared the Qin Family might recklessly decide to fight Cyan Yang Divine Court to the death, in which case Qin King City would be doomed.

"The time is up. It seems Patriarch Qin has decided to fight to the bitter end. In that case, I will fulfill your wish!"

A quarter-hour later, Xu Bo slowly spoke, as a True Monarch’s aura of the Sixth Tier spread, causing a slight tremor in the surrounding space.

Just as he raised his right hand, ready to order Qin King City’s destruction, Qin Ye finally couldn’t withstand the pressure and hastily said, "The Qin Family is willing to submit!"

As these words were spoken,

all auras ceased instantly.

Xu Bo’s gaze was indifferent as he coldly said, "Those who understand the times are wise. Since Patriarch Qin is willing to submit, from today on, Qin King City will be under Cyan Yang Divine Court’s control.

Additionally, with the army’s expenditures, I hope the Qin Family can contribute a million jin of Spirit Stones as military funding."

A million jin of Spirit Stones!

Qin Ye’s heart trembled. He wanted to refuse, but upon meeting Xu Bo’s indifferent eyes, he swallowed his words hard.

"Yes!"

With difficulty, Qin Ye squeezed out a word, his heart bleeding internally.

A million jin of Spirit Stones!

This was essentially stripping the Qin Family’s foundation bare.

But Qin Ye dared not refuse; when under a roof, one must bow their head. If he dared to object with a single word, the Qin Family might face extermination instantly.

Seeing his agreement, Xu Bo smiled contentedly: "Patriarch Qin is straightforward. Your willingness to provide a million jin of Spirit Stones will be reported. The Divine Court will not forget the Qin Family’s contribution."

"This is what the Qin Family ought to do."

With a forced smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, Qin Ye’s heart still bled internally.
