Chapter 227 Desperate Civilians
"Impossible! If you want blood food, we can discuss it! But I can't agree to occupy the Wild North Province!"
Shen Bei's face looked as ugly as if he had eaten three pounds of feces, and he just shook his head.
At this moment, many people nearby had already rushed to the trial site to watch. When they heard Shen Bei's words, their expressions suddenly froze, and a feeling of despair grew in their hearts!
Blood food can be negotiated, does this mean that we can use their lives to negotiate peace with the demon clan?
Sure enough!
The Martial Palace is going to abandon common people like them again!
In the past ten years, there have been many massacres in the city, and the Martial Palace has turned a blind eye to the demon clan, and the demon clan seems to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with the Martial Palace, only eating civilians and not hurting warriors.
The civilians will not eat it all, but will leave one tenth for seeds, so that the city can continue to reproduce and provide blood food to the demon tribe next year, just like harvesting wheat, harvest one crop and harvest another next year!
This is an unspoken rule that almost everyone knows!
The hearts of the common people have long been chilled!
In the eyes of those bigwigs in the Martial Palace, the lives of ordinary people may really be the same as those of ants!
"Old dog, I don't know who you are, but judging by the clothes you're wearing, you must be a great figure in the Martial Palace! But even so, you have no right to bargain with me, because your Martial Palace is just a dog raised by my demon clan! You humans are just blood food to fill my demon clan's stomachs! My demon clan can do whatever they want!"
Xue Shan restrained his smile and a cold look appeared in his eyes.
"you……"
Shen Bei was a powerful man, his status among the human race was as high as a god, he had never been insulted like this before, his face immediately turned pale, he was so angry that he could not speak.
"What? If you don't accept, feel free to fight my Blood Feather Mountain army! If you don't dare, get out of here!"
Xue Shan didn't care about Shen Bei's anger at all, and his tone was as cold as ice.
"Master, why are you wasting time talking to them? Just start eating! I, Pig Two, am already hungry!"
The pig demon at the demon sect level stared at the large group of human geniuses opposite, with sticky, foul-smelling saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth!
Although it has transformed into a human form, its demonic nature has not changed and it still likes to eat people!
"The Martial Palace has been my demon clan's dogs for so many years, we must give them a chance!" Xue Shan shook his head, then looked at Shen Bei, "I'll give you three breaths, take your Martial Palace people and get out immediately! Otherwise, I will kill you too!"
Some big figures of the demon clan secretly reached an agreement with the Martial Palace, so it did not immediately turn against Shen Bei!
Everyone looked at the people in the Martial Hall, and many of them showed anger and contempt on their faces.
The Martial Palace is high and mighty, admired by thousands of people, yet it actually behaves like this!
What’s the difference between this and the Demon Temple?
In fact, whether it is the Martial Palace or the Demon Suppression Bureau established by the Great Xia Dynasty, their original intention was to protect the human race and resist the demon race, which is fundamentally different from the Demon God Palace!
However, with the long war between humans and demons, the human race has been losing ground and is on the brink of collapse!
There is a serious split within the Martial Palace and the Demon Suppression Bureau. Some important figures believe that sacrificing the lives of civilians to protect warriors is the right way!
Of course, there are also some important figures who have been corrupted by the demons and become traitors to humanity.
Due to the above reasons, in the past few decades, there have been many times when the demons massacred the city, and the Martial Palace and the Demon Suppression Bureau have adopted a laissez-faire attitude!
Shen Bei looked hesitant, struggling internally as to whether he should leave immediately!
He is a selfish person. He started practicing cultivation in order to gain strength, climb to a high position, and enjoy life in this chaotic world!
After a hundred years of hard training, he had achieved it. Now he had everything. He didn't want to die here for a group of people who had nothing to do with him!
But before, they condoned the demon tribe's massacre of the city, all in private. Even if others guessed it, they didn't dare to say anything!
Now we are in the public eye, and if we just leave, we will inevitably be criticized!
"Brother Bei, the demon tribe is too strong, let's retreat first!"
Lin Baimei was much more decisive and spoke to Shen Bei in a low voice.
He had finally climbed to the king realm and didn't want to die here in vain!
The Demon King is at the seventh level. If the five human kings present join forces, they may be able to contain him or even defeat him, buying time for the people in the city to escape. However, there is a high possibility that someone will die, and who knows if it will be him!
"Alright! Ninth Elder, I'll follow your advice and retreat first!"
Shen Bei pretended to be hesitant, glanced at Lin Baimei, and then said in a deep voice.
When he spoke, he deliberately used a trace of Wu Yuan!
The sound spread throughout the entire Huangbei City.
Lin Baimei was stunned. He looked around and found countless pairs of hateful eyes looking at him.
His face darkened.
This bastard Shen Bei actually plotted against him?
Is this something that others can hear?
He was just about to explain and try to make amends when he heard Shen Bei shout, "Everyone in the Martial Hall, follow me and retreat immediately. Break out and seek help. Fight for a chance of survival for Desolate North City!"
The words fell.
Shen Bei didn't care about other people's reactions and turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky!
Lin Baimei glanced at the demons on the opposite side who were ready to make a move, gritted his teeth, and flashed away from the scene.
The rest of the people from the Martial Hall also fled in panic and soon disappeared.
At this point, all the people in the Martial Hall fled, and the demon clan did not stop them!
Everyone present had a dazed look in their eyes, and a sense of inexplicable sadness welled up in their hearts!
When the demons attacked the city, Wu Dian, who was usually high and mighty and worshipped like a god by the common people, was the first to run away!
Breakout?
The demons haven't even taken action yet, how can they break out of the encirclement?
"The remaining three human kings can also leave."
Seeing Wu Dian leave so quickly, Xue Shan had a sneer on his face, and then he looked at Xiao Zhenbei, Qiu Wantian, and Lin Jiansan.
These are the only three people on the field who have a chance to threaten him.
It wanted to end the war without bloodshed, so it was willing to let the three kings go!
Of course, if the other party is ungrateful, it doesn't mind teaching them a lesson and paying some price, and it should be able to keep one or two kings!
At this moment, more and more people from Desolate North City gathered in the trial field, densely packed and bustling. They looked at the only three kings in the field with horror, then bent their knees and knelt on the ground, "Please, don't give up on us!"
There were women holding their one-month-old babies and crying with their heads down, there were old men who looked like candles in the wind, their pupils contracted and they were shivering, and there were children of three or five years old with dim eyes and speechless with fear.
They kowtowed together, using all their strength each time. Soon, many of them had blood on their foreheads. However, they were completely unaware and kept kowtow!
Fear, despair and sadness filled the entire city!
The Wu Dian who was supposed to protect them has already fled, and the only ones they can count on are the three kings in the field!
This is the last guardian angel in their hearts!
What if even they left!
What awaits them will be an inhumane massacre!
Women will be raped, children will be eaten, and men will be tortured and killed!
In just half a day, this magnificent city with a population of millions will be transformed into a living hell, with no one left alive!
Emperor Xia is a wise ruler who cares about the people. After receiving the news, he may send people to support us!
But distant water cannot quench a nearby fire!
When Emperor Xia's men arrived, perhaps no one in the entire city would be left alive!
The danger that Huangbei City was facing at this moment was very similar to that of Xiongwu City back then, no, it was a thousand times more dangerous!
That day, Xiao Chen came out to save the day, but who can stand up today?
But King Zhenbei is still okay. The Sword Immortal Academy is usually looked down upon and despised by them. Will he really stand up to protect them at this time?
"Zhenbei, what should we do now?"
On the stands, Wen Wanrong looked at the hundreds of thousands of people kneeling on the ground and kowtowing continuously, with an expression of pity on her face!
