554: Chapter 554 The Abandoned Demonwood Clan

The experts of the Sea Race did not accept their fate. Although their strongest power had fallen, their living environment had made them extremely proud.

Even if they died in battle, it was impossible for them to submit to anyone else!

Of course, since they wouldn't submit, their only option was to die in battle.

Swish!

Countless Sea Race experts soared into the sky from the sea's surface. The densely packed Sea Race members resembled a galaxy, acting like an injustice against the heavens, going against the natural order!

At the same time, a giant palm the size of a planet pierced through space and time, descending from the heavens!

The one who attacked was none other than Fang Bai!

That giant palm was wrapped in endless power of thunder, carrying an aura capable of destroying all living beings!

Facing reality, that single palm strike brought utter despair to the Sea Race!

The leading Tenth-Tier Experts felt the power within that giant palm; their pupils constricted, revealing sheer terror!

Only then did they realize that having more numbers was useless!

The scythe of the Grim Reaper was instantly suspended over their heads!

Run!

Those Tenth-Tier Experts no longer had the heart to fight; they turned around and fled!

However, the aura of a Tenth Order Peak was enough to lock onto all living things!

“No!!!”

At this moment, they didn't even have time for regret as that giant hand crashed down!

The leading Tenth-Tier Experts and a group of high-tier combatants tried to resist, but it was completely futile!

Whether they were Tenth Rank or Ninth Rank, they all turned into fly ash and vanished in an instant!

The giant palm pressed down on the entire sea region, and the whole planet shook!

As the power dissipated, a gargantuan crater appeared in the area!

The Sea Race was completely extinct, and the seawater had been entirely evaporated!

What was originally a sea region now didn't have a single drop of water left!

Total annihilation!

In one move!

Fang Bai remained expressionless, accepting the system's feedback baptism. He felt no sorrow for killing billions of beings; instead, he was incredibly indifferent.

Are you kidding? You were going to attack me, and I'm supposed to be polite to you?

That wouldn't be very Fang Bai-like.

“They deserved it,” Fei Qianqiu commented indifferently.

He wasn't a good person himself and understood that only slaughter could put an end to all wars.

Fang Bai's aura was a bit stronger than before!

Unfortunately, there weren't many Tenth Rank existences among these experts, so they didn't provide him with much help.

With the extinction of the Sea Race, the matters here had come to an end.

Fei Qianqiu and Fang Bai arrived at the Yao Mu Clan.

Even knowing that the Quasi-Saint expert Demon Wood was still alive, the two were not afraid at all.

They were only afraid that Demon Wood wouldn't be there.

Of course, Demon Wood had already fled. Currently, within the Yao Mu Clan, people were in a state of panic.

However, compared to the other powers, the Yao Mu Clan's preserved strength was still relatively strong.

There were actually three Tenth Rank experts remaining!

The leader among them had even reached the Tenth Order Late Stage!

Moreover, he was an acquaintance of Fang Bai—the Young Patriarch of the Yao Mu Clan, Yao Yuan!

At this moment, the remaining group of experts from the Yao Mu Clan gathered together, their expressions extremely solemn.

Yao Yuan, the leader, spoke up: “Everyone, what are your thoughts on this situation?”

A Tenth Rank old man said in a deep voice: “I believe our strength is insufficient to oppose Fei Qianqiu. I'm afraid we can only surrender.”

As soon as he spoke, he gained the support of some of the demons.

“While Elder Li makes a good point, everyone must not forget that the Patriarch has not yet fallen. Our clan still has a Quasi-Saint Realm expert!” another old man spoke up.

Elder Li sneered: “Elder Fan, what you said is as good as saying nothing. Everyone knows the Patriarch is still alive, but the problem is he hasn't shown his face until now! We... have been abandoned!”

Saying the Patriarch ran away sounded a bit harsh, but the reality was indeed that they had been abandoned.

At this moment, all the experts of the Yao Mu Clan looked toward Yao Yuan.

After all, Yao Yuan was the son of Demon Wood.

“Young Patriarch, what should we do now?” Elder Li asked in a heavy tone.

Yao Yuan was silent for a moment before saying: “Everyone, we are not Fei Qianqiu's match.”

Everyone sighed.

The meaning was already very clear. If they fought, there was a high probability they would be completely wiped out. If they didn't fight, their only option was to surrender.

“Young Patriarch, the Patriarch... can you really not contact him?” an elder inquired.

Everyone also looked at Yao Yuan, their eyes filled with hope.

Yao Yuan smiled bitterly: “If I could contact him, we wouldn't be in such a passive position. My father...”

He understood his father; if it came down to a life-or-death moment, the other party wouldn't show any sentimentality.

Even if he was his biological son.

Of course, if he were in Demon Wood's position, he would also flee.

Having finally cultivated to the Quasi-Saint Realm, why would he seek death?

Wouldn't it be better to find a place to hide and develop quietly?

Although it was a bit sad, it had to be said that he, the biological son, had been given up on.

Yao Yuan was also feeling extremely regretful at this moment.

Damn it! If I had known, I wouldn't have come back. It would have been better to just leave. Now that I've come back to clean up this mess, I don't even know if I can survive...

Taking a deep breath, Yao Yuan looked at everyone and said: “Everyone, there are only two paths before us. We will vote to decide: fight or surrender.”

“Those who agree to fight to the death, raise your hands.”

The group of 'people' looked at each other with strange expressions.

Although they were known as the head of the Seven Great Powers, who wouldn't be afraid of death when facing such a powerful enemy?

Seeing that no one raised their hand, Yao Yuan said indifferently: “Then we can only surrender.”

...

By the time Fei Qianqiu and Fang Bai arrived, Yao Yuan had already been waiting for a long time with a group of clansmen.

Fang Bai looked at the group of Yao Mu Clan experts and was about to speak when suddenly Yao Yuan took a step forward and gave a slight bow: “My Yao Mu Clan is willing to surrender.”

Surrender!

The words Fang Bai was about to say got stuck in his throat.

He had originally thought the Yao Mu Clan would be tougher than the Sea Race, but he didn't expect them to kneel so magnificently...

Fei Qianqiu stared at Yao Yuan and the others, then nodded: “Very well.”

“However... you must hand over all your resources!”

This last sentence came from Fang Bai's mouth.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the Yao Mu Clan members changed slightly.

Hand over the resources!

The foundation of their Yao Mu Clan was substantial; they even had a complete source vein!

This was the key factor in their clan's dominance over the Dark Night Star Domain. Handing over the source vein now was equivalent to announcing their decline...

But there was no other way. After all, they were the losers and had no right to negotiate terms.

Yao Yuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded: “Understood.”

He then opened his hand, and a storage ring flew toward Fang Bai... or rather, toward Fei Qianqiu beside him.

Fang Bai: “...”

Fei Qianqiu scanned it with his divine sense and saw the source vein inside the storage ring, his expression shifting.

If the Dark Night Star Domain was to reorganize itself now, that source vein was an indispensable and vital resource; it was the foundation of power.

Fei Qianqiu looked at Fang Bai, who chuckled: “This source vein should go to Senior.”

Fei Qianqiu heard this and then slowly said: “I can't let you lose out either. How about this...”

He waved his hand, and in an instant, from the direction of the Yao Mu Clan's treasury, streaks of light flew over. Those were all the treasures of the Yao Mu Clan...

Yao Mu Clan: “...”
