Chapter 933: A Murderer Must Pay With His Life, and a Debtor Must Pay His Debts

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although it had only been a day, the suffering was real for the empress.

Fortunately, she finally felt relieved after receiving news from Ren Baqian.

However, he didn’t tell her about his current location.

After all, there were more than a dozen people next to him who were looking at him with all sorts of expressions.

Ren Baqian was only able to use the radio station to communicate back because the honored ones wanted to see the tool that was able to allow him to talk to someone thousands of kilometers away. It didn’t mean that he could tell the empress his current location without hesitation.

Everyone in the hall took a deep breath when they heard the voices of Hong Wu, Tong Zhenye, and the others.

They slapped their thighs in amazement as well.

It was as expected!

It really was true!

To be able to communicate from thousands of kilometers away, the value of this treasure was really too great!

If these were owned by ordinary people, they would definitely be a hidden treasure and wouldn’t be used until the most critical moment.

However, judging from the reaction of the people of Dayao, this was just a common tool that not much attention was paid to.

Ren Baqian briefly said a few words, switched off the radio station, and looked up at them.

“Everyone, let’s talk about proper business now. I believe you will make the right choice for your future!”

They had to choose between taking this opportunity to fight or continue staying like livestock kept in captivity.

Since things had already progressed to this stage, Ren Baqian wasn’t worried about their choice.

In fact, everyone had already made their decision. This was their only opportunity. If they had a choice, who would be willing to be held captive for their entire life? Moreover, these were the top experts who stood above the human race.

Everyone kept quiet and waited for someone to speak.

“I see that you brought someone. I want to take a look at your nation!” An old woman’s voice sounded.

Everyone was surprised, but they immediately lowered their eyes after.

Although this request was abrupt, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed pretty reasonable. Who wouldn’t want to see such a world with their own eyes?

“I refuse!” Ren Baqian looked at her with a forced smile.

“Why?” The old lady looked gloomy.

“You aren’t qualified!” he replied faintly, without sparing any thought for her opinion. “I’m only offering you an opportunity, and you are in no position to make any requests. Even if you make the right decision, you are only doing it for your own sake! What does it have to do with me?”

Everyone was speechless as they pondered over what Ren Baqian said. Although it didn’t sound pleasant, he was right about it. All of this was for their own sake.

The old lady got angry. It had been a long time since anyone spoke to her like this.

After all, even if he rejected her request, what could she do about it? He had already proven that his words were true.

She could probably threaten his life and the empress’s life. However, the Temple of Heaven wouldn’t agree to this, and the first one to object would be Deputy Temple Chief Zong Shang.

This wasn’t the time to fall out with one another.

After taking a few breaths, the old lady calmed her expression and asked, “Will you be able to take us out of this land of exile?”

This was also what everyone else was dying to know.

Since Ren Baqian could come here, it also meant that he could just leave. Everyone suspected that he had a passage from which he could enter and leave the land of exile.

Some of them grew worried and looked intently at his expression. As long as they could leave this land of exile, they would be free to roam around the vast world. Since millions of humans could attain today’s achievements, nobody would have any worries about leaving this place.

However, some of them began to sneer. Such an idea was weak in itself.

“No! I came by accident. I can leave through quantum transmission and can even take a few people with me, but do you want to abandon your entire human race and run away? I have no intention of fulfilling your wish.

I have only one option for you, which is to fight! For yourselves and for the entire human race. Fight with the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the strange races until you leave this place. This is where your value lies. This is where humans can display their value.”

Everyone fell silent for a while before someone asked, “What do you want? What do you want us to do?”

This response had affirmed Ren Baqian’s status.

After all, he came from a superior branch of the human race. He could change all of this and leave at any time.

Ren Baqian grinned.

“Like I said, fight. Fight wars, defeat the heavens, the earth, and the enemies until you trample over their corpses or you get trampled on.

Of course, just like what I’m currently doing, I will give you technology.

The development of science and technology requires time and resources.

The experts of the human race have the potential to compete against the experts of the enemies.

However, before that, I have a request..” Ren Baqian glanced across everyone’s faces in the shadows.

“Cut away your decayed flesh. The objective of the Temple of Heaven is good, but for thousands of years, you have been a tumor of the human race. I hope to see your valuable side contribute to the human race.”

In fact, what he really wanted was to dissolve the Temple of Heaven.

In this land, there was no need for an uncontrolled underground organization with so many experts.

However, Ren Baqian also understood that such a proposal would be almost impossible to achieve. Instead, it would make everyone hostile toward him and wouldn’t be beneficial at all.

As such, he simply buried this idea and then thought of ways to use their differences to instigate a dissolution. The world would change faster and faster and these obsolete people wouldn’t be able to keep up and would be left behind.

After hearing what he said, although everyone had different thoughts, most of them weren’t convinced. However, no one spoke up because their interests weren’t affected.

“Which one of you is Xu Wuming?” Ren Baqian asked.

“I am! Are you asking about me because of what happened in the Yun Nation? I can tell you that I was the one who did it. What do you want with me?” Xu Wuming was a simple, refined, and thin old man who had his sparse hair parted in the middle of his head. When he opened his eyes, his gaze pierced through like a sword, making one’s skin hurt. It was as if he had bred a sword in his eyes.

Ren Baqian had already had a feeling about this man. From the beginning, he was unlike the rest and didn’t show any kind of surprised reaction. He simply sat there quietly, and it was impossible for anyone to overlook this.

“Apart from you, there must be others involved,” Ren Baqian said faintly.

Xu Wuming stayed silent. Although it wasn’t difficult for him to kill Wu Kai, he himself shouldn’t have been the one who killed the ordinary warriors. The traces of weapons left at the scene also explained everything.

“I arranged it!” Wen Xiaosheng said calmly.

Actually, Ren Baqian knew this without him saying it.historical

“Luohua Sect. Was that also your doing?” Ren Baqian asked again.

“It was arranged by the Corpse Dog Hall,” Wen Xiaosheng replied.

Ren Baqian could feel everyone’s eyes on him.

He groaned. This wasn’t an easy feat.

After all, Xu Wuming wasn’t an ordinary person. Even disregarding his strength, he was still a member of the Temple of Heaven and definitely hadn’t orchestrated this series of events by himself. If Ren Baqian were to hound him, how could the others simply sit and watch? Moreover, when in distress, they would definitely sympathize with a like-minded person who was one of their own.

Besides, Wen Xiaosheng and others were also involved.

As for the incident at Luohua Sect, Ren Baqian wasn’t too bothered by it. If this was the only thing that happened, he would simply smile and cast it away.

However, what happened to Wu Kai couldn’t be cast away.

Even if Wu Kai and Xu Wuming were old enemies, according to the novels, shouldn’t they just smile and forget about it or place more importance on current matters?

If Ren Baqian were to say this to the empress.. she would probably smash a brick on his face! Let alone the empress, nobody in the imperial court would agree either.

A tooth for a tooth was the usual custom for the aboriginals.

Since Ren Baqian had been with the aboriginals ever since he arrived in this world, he naturally had to stand by their beliefs.

Even after muttering to himself, he still couldn’t come to a conclusion. In fact, he had already been pondering over this question on Earth.

In any case, this problem still remained unresolved.

Ren Baqian gently closed his eyes and made a final decision.

“A murderer must pay with his life, and a debtor must pay his debts!”

As soon as he made this remark, the hall suddenly erupted like a volcano. Tyrannical auras filled the air.

Everyone from the nearby fishing village stopped in their tracks and looked in the direction of the Sea God Shrine.
