78: Chapter 78 Orcs can be spared, but goblins? Slaughter them all!

The vassal lords who were fighting below all wore expressions of disbelief when they heard that Xu Xuan had subdued the Orc Sword Saint.

Huh?

“The Sect Master... he actually recruited the Orc Sword Saint.”

Takeshita Asuka was dumbstruck. Wasn't it said that Orcs would rather die than surrender? How was it that in Xu Xuan's hands, this iron-boned Orc Sword Saint had yielded?

The Orc Sword Saint lasted only slightly longer than a 20-minute surrender; he gave in at 30 minutes.

The newly joined vassal lords were filled with shock.

Meanwhile, Jung Jae-soo, that loyal lord, happily raised both hands, his face wearing an expression that said: [My Great Ming is truly invincible; it is my honor to be a dog of Great Ming.]

Jung Jae-soo raised his hands and shouted happily: “The Sect Master is powerful, smida! Even the Orc Sword Saint surrendered! Did you see that? Did you see that?!”

His excited appearance seemed to say, ‘Even the Orc Sword Saint surrendered, so there's no shame in us surrendering either.’

True indeed.

The other lords were very clear about the status of an Orc Sword Saint. Suddenly, they felt that surrendering wasn't so embarrassing; after all, even an Orc Sword Saint had to grovel at the Sect Master's feet.

What was even more delightful was that the Goblin Suicide Squads, who were still launching death charges at them, were suddenly backstabbed!

Two thousand Orc Wolf Cavalry, mounted on worgs and armed with bows, were relentlessly shooting down the Goblins.

Four hundred Heavy Orc Warriors also swung their greatswords, hacking through the Goblins like they were chopping vegetables.

It had to be said, the Goblins were little green-skins, but once sliced open, their meat inside was red. It really felt like a large blade bursting a watermelon, with juice spraying everywhere.

One second the Orcs were allies, and the next, they turned their slaughtering blades toward them.

These Goblins wailed and shrieked for mercy, yet Xu Xuan watched the massacre with indifference.

Beside him, Grand Preceptor Wen, sitting atop the Black Kirin, stroked his long beard and couldn't help but ask, “Great King, these Goblins have surrendered. Why must we wipe them out entirely?”

“Such an inferior race is only fit to become bone meal. With our population about to explode, we need more food, and we are very short on bone meal.”

Hearing this reply, Grand Preceptor Wen was secretly startled.

The Great King was truly ruthless, yet Grand Preceptor Wen strongly agreed with Xu Xuan's reasoning.

These Goblins had low combat power; incorporating them would just be a waste of food. It was better to slaughter them all and burn them to ash. After all, with such a large population, the pressure on food supplies would be immense.

However, Grand Preceptor Wen felt that the Great King seemed particularly hostile toward Goblins, intending to not incorporate a single one—not even one.

As for the reason, Xu Xuan was very clear.

Did you see those Goblins? Every single one of them was male.

The Goblin race would plunder females of other races for... well, that.

After squeezing every bit of value out of them, they would kill them and stew them for soup.

Xu Xuan felt disgusted just looking at such an inhuman monster race.

Firstly, killing Goblins increased the amount of bone meal, which was convenient for farming.

Secondly, Xu Xuan simply hated Goblins and wanted to kill them; there was no other reason needed.

Thus, under the joint strangulation of the Orcs and the Humans, these Goblins were slaughtered to the last one.

Tens of thousands of Goblin corpses piled up like mountains. The scene was like a slaughterhouse as these low-intelligence, evil creatures were all disposed of, and fires were lit to burn them into bone meal.

“Jung Jae-soo, while the enemy army hasn't arrived yet, dispose of these corpses immediately!”

As soon as Xu Xuan's order was given, Jung Jae-soo immediately began mobilizing manpower.

“Hurry up! Everyone, hurry up! The Sect Master said to dispose of the corpses immediately before the Orcs arrive!”

After Jung Jae-soo finished speaking, he looked toward Kim Yong-jun, who was sitting in a corner.

This kid, Kim Yong-jun, had been knocked unconscious by him earlier and dragged back beneath the Floating Island.

This guy stood 1.9 meters tall; he was the scum who relied on his physical advantage to constantly bully his classmates back in high school.

Now that he had fallen into Jung Jae-soo's hands, Jung Jae-soo revealed a sinister smile: “Kim Yong-jun!”

Squatting in the corner, a listless Kim Yong-jun slowly raised his eyelids.

His previous arrogant aura was gone; his eyes were vacant now, and he looked quite dejected.

“Here.”

Kim Yong-jun slowly stood up and walked over to Jung Jae-soo.

Looking at this former bully, Jung Jae-soo suddenly slapped him across the face: “Shiba! Didn't you hear what the Sect Master said? Move it! Dispose of the corpses before the enemy army arrives.”

After receiving the slap, Kim Yong-jun's expression changed drastically.

He was used to lording it over others; back in school, he could lift Jung Jae-soo with one hand and beat him at will.

Now, this scrawny monkey Jung Jae-soo was actually bossing him around?

“Jung Jae-soo, do you want to die?!”

Veins bulging, Kim Yong-jun roared and was about to strike.

Xu Xuan, up on the island, saw this scene clearly.

“Oh? Even after becoming my dog, this Korean named Kim Yong-jun is still so arrogant?”

Just as Kim Yong-jun was about to throw a punch, Xu Xuan muttered under his breath: “Imprisonment.”

[Imprisonment! According to the Vassal Contract, you have issued an immobilization command to the vassal lord Kim Yong-jun; he will be unable to move.]

Seeing Kim Yong-jun raise his fist, about to smash it into Jung Jae-soo's face...

The others around them covered their mouths and gasped.

Most of these Korean lords knew each other and knew that Kim Yong-jun had always been tyrannical, relying on his physical fitness to bully other students since their school days.

But this time?

Times had changed!

Just as Kim Yong-jun's punch was about to land, his body seemed to be hit by a freezing spell, locking him in place.

Jung Jae-soo fearfully used his hands to protect his head. He felt an instinctive fear—a remnant memory of being beaten during his student days; he still dreaded Kim Yong-jun.

However, after waiting for a long time, he realized Kim Yong-jun's fist had not descended.

Only then did Jung Jae-soo slowly open his eyes to look at the situation.

When he saw Kim Yong-jun frozen motionless, Jung Jae-soo immediately looked up at the Floating Island.

“Sect Master!”

Jung Jae-soo's face lit up with joy, as if he had found a righteous official to seek justice for him.

“That 1.9-meter gorilla is Kim Yong-jun, right? Quite arrogant, aren't you, trying to stir up internal strife under my command?”

Xu Xuan spoke very slowly, but every word was saturated with killing intent.

After all... Xu Xuan had truly killed people; he had killed other lords.

The slaughter on the battlefield had already changed his aura. When swept by that gaze that had seen death, everyone couldn't help but shiver, feeling a chill down their spines.

Even Kim Yong-jun, who was used to bullying others, felt his legs begin to tremble uncontrollably under Xu Xuan's piercing gaze.

“Kim Yong-jun, go clear the Goblin corpses now. This is your first warning.”

“If there is a second time, I will assign you to the vanguard suicide squad and let you be the first to charge.”

Every word from Xu Xuan exploded in the minds of the vassal lords. Having signed a vassal agreement without autonomy meant their lives no longer belonged to them!

At this moment, beads of sweat rolled down Kim Yong-jun's forehead; he began to sweat profusely.

The good days for this campus bully were only just beginning!
