306: What kind of master would take in a piece of trash as a subordinate?

The Devouring Curse Demon Marshal's head exploded like a watermelon smashed by a heavy hammer.

Red and white matter mixed with shards of hard bone armor splattered in all directions.

His headless corpse sank deep into the ground, twitched violently twice, and then fell silent.

[Ding! Killed Eighth-Rank Demonic Evil 'Devouring Curse Demon Marshal', obtained 49,521 points!]

The System's notification sounded clearly in Chen Nian's mind.

But he didn't even twitch an eyebrow, as if he had just casually brushed away a speck of dust.

This scene of extreme bloody violence was like a final death knell.

Striking hard against the hearts of the dozens of Demonic Evils remaining in the altar's core area!

Extreme fear, like ice water poured over their heads, instantly drowned all their lingering hopes.

Even the Lord Demon Marshal couldn't survive a single move in the opponent's hands.

What chance of survival did they, mere Cadres and foot soldiers, have?

For a moment, the remaining Demonic Evils were so terrified that their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

But they immediately remembered their companions who had been insta-killed just now for being too noisy.

They quickly covered their mouths tightly, forcing all their fear and wails back down their throats.

All of them knelt on the ground, pressing their heads firmly against the cold, viscous floor covered in the flesh and blood of their companions.

Their bodies trembled violently from extreme fear.

But they didn't even have the courage to look up at that demon-god-like figure.

The entire altar core instantly fell into a suffocating silence.

There was only the faint sound of blood flowing slowly and the uncontrollable, slight chattering of the Demonic Evils' teeth.

Chen Nian slowly withdrew his hand, his gaze calmly sweeping over the crowd of Demonic Evils kneeling on the ground in various states of disgrace.

His eyes were indifferent without a single ripple, as if he were looking at a pile of worthless trash.

He just smiled contemptuously and spoke flatly.

"Hmm, you shouldn't be forgotten either."

"He should have finished saying everything that needed to be said; I assume you have nothing more to add?"

Chen Nian paused for a few seconds, his gaze sweeping over the Demonic Evils prostrate on the ground and shivering.

It seemed they truly had nothing to add.

"Then you can go and die."

Hearing this, the Demonic Evils snapped their heads up, their faces instantly draining of color, filled with extreme terror and despair!

"No... My Lord! Spare our lives!"

"We don't know anything! We really don't know anything!"

"Please! Give us a way to live! I am willing to serve you as my master!"

Pleas for mercy rose one after another, but Chen Nian only looked at them playfully, without a trace of pity in his eyes.

"Serve me as your master?"

"No need. Whose Lord would take trash as subordinates?"

"Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

Having finished, he simply waved his hand casually.

"Swish swish swish swish swish—!!!"

Thousands of extremely condensed Blood-colored Silk Threads instantly erupted!

These threads were as thin as hair, yet sharp enough to slice through space.

At this moment, like a rainstorm of death, they flew towards the kneeling Demonic Evils, slashing rapidly!

"Puchi! Puchi! Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!"

The sound of blades cutting through flesh was so dense it made one's scalp tingle!

These Demonic Evils kneeling on the ground didn't even have time to stand before their bodies were instantly sliced into countless pieces by the crisscrossing Blood-colored Silk Threads!

Heads rolled, limbs were severed, and torsos were neatly divided into palm-sized chunks of meat!

Red, white, green, black... internal organs, blood, and bone fragments of various colors mixed together.

As if crushed by an invisible giant hand and then splattered out!

Viscous foul blood surged wildly from countless incisions like fountains.

Instantly, the ground around the altar was completely soaked, forming a viscous pool of blood!

[Ding! Killed Fifth-Rank Demonic Evil, obtained 12,117 points!]

[Ding! Killed Fifth-Rank Demonic Evil, obtained 19,327 points!]

[Ding! Killed Sixth-Tier Demonic Evil, obtained 25,552 points!]

[Ding! Killed Seventh-Tier Demon, obtained 36,891 points!]

...The System's notifications flooded Chen Nian's mind, and the point values surged once again.

But this was only the beginning.

Seeing their companions harvested in swaths like wheat, some of the quicker-reacting Demonic Evils finally broke down completely!

"Run! Run fast!"

"Scatter and flee! Save whoever can!"

"He's only one person! It's impossible for him to chase everyone at the same time!"

The remaining dozens of Demonic Evils let out desperate roars, fleeing for their lives in all directions like hornets from a disturbed nest!

They some turned into black smoke, trying to vanish into the shadows.

Some flapped their wings, flying towards the sky.

Some crashed directly into the rock walls, trying to break through the mountain to escape!

The scene instantly became chaotic to the extreme!

However, Chen Nian just shook his head helplessly, as if watching a group of ignorant children making a fuss.

He whispered to himself, his voice tinged with disappointment:

"Even at the end, have you still not recognized reality?"

"If you had stayed still, I could have given you a quick end."

"However, if you want to run, I don't mind." The corners of Chen Nian's mouth curled into a playful arc. "Otherwise, it would be too boring."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand again and gave a gentle wave toward the Demonic Evils scattering in all directions.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Several beams of extremely condensed, eerie green energy emitting an aura of annihilation erupted from Chen Nian's palm!

These beams seemed to possess a life of their own.

Drawing strange arcs in the air.

They shot accurately toward the fleeing Demonic Evils!

"No—!!"

"Quick, get out of the way!!"

The targeted Demonic Evils let out shrill screams, desperately channeling their Evil Energy to try to dodge or block.

However, in the face of Nether Shock's speed that surpassed thought, all struggle was futile!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Deafening explosions rang out one after another!

The green energy exploded violently!

The Demonic Evils within the blast radius, whether Fifth-Rank, Sixth-Tier, or Seventh-Order.

Their bodies were instantly blown to pieces, annihilated into the most basic particles!

Not even a speck of residue was left behind!

Even if they weren't hit directly, any Demonic Evil caught in the shockwave had their body instantly torn to shreds!

Flesh and blood flew, and bone fragments splattered!

Viscous foul blood gushed out like fountains!

[Ding! Killed Fifth-Rank Demonic Evil, obtained 12,117 points!]

[Ding! Killed Fifth-Rank Demonic Evil, obtained 16,679 points!]

[Ding! Killed Sixth-Tier Demonic Evil, obtained 21,891 points!]

[Ding! Killed Seventh-Tier Demon, obtained 35,552 points!]

...Another wave of points arrived.

The surviving Demonic Evils were scared until their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering by this terrifying sight, and no longer dared to flee.

Crying and wailing, they scrambled back to kneel on the ground, frantically kowtowing toward Chen Nian.

"My Lord! My Lord, spare our lives! We were wrong! We won't run anymore!"

A Seventh-Tier Demon shaped like a giant lizard and covered in bone armor wept with snot and tears.

His forehead hit the ground with muffled "thud-thud" sounds:

"We are willing to talk! We know more! We know the specific layout of all the defensive outposts on the outskirts of Soul Burial Valley! We know the weak points of the energy nodes!"

Another Demonic Evil with wings on its back and a head like a vulture also lay prostrate on the ground, its voice hoarse:

"Yes, yes, yes! We can lead the way! We can help you avoid all the traps! We only ask that you spare our lives!"

"As long as you don't kill us, we are willing to do anything! Sign a Soul Contract! Be your slaves forever!"

Other Demonic Evils chimed in one after another, acting in disgraceful ways.

They poured out everything they knew, didn't know, and even fabricated information, just hoping to trade it for a sliver of a chance at life.

However, Chen Nian just smiled contemptuously and shook his head.

"No need."

His tone was flat without a single ripple, yet it carried a chill that could freeze one's Soul:

"Everything that needs to be known, I already know."

"As for what defenses or what traps."

Chen Nian's smile became increasingly cruel and playful:

"Do you think those things are actually useful against me?"

"You all just need to die obediently."
