#507 - Chapter 507 Waiting for an Impossible Answer
Seeing the Master leave, Hongyu's subordinates also chose what they wanted.
Before long, miserable screams echoed throughout the Deer Joy Pavilion.
Two hours later, Hongyu and the others emerged, looking refreshed and energetic.
"Master, what should we do with these cauldrons?"
Hearing the question, Hongyu turned back to look at the cauldrons below, still bleeding and on the verge of death.
"Pour some Spirit Restoration Soup on them; they can still be used." Hongyu's words were devoid of any emotion.
"But Master, if we pour this Spirit Restoration Soup, it will ruin their foundations, causing them unbearable pain, and they won't be able to reincarnate after death. Isn't this method a bit too much?"
One of the subordinates couldn't bear it and said.
"What do you know? Only in this way can every drop of essence and blood in their bodies be used by us. We've been exploited by Ye Kong for so many years."
"We can't let go of even a sliver of opportunity for improvement."
Hongyu clenched his fist tightly, thinking of Fa's sword.
"Yes!"
The others didn't dare to argue any further and hurriedly took the Spirit Restoration Soup down.
Before long, the cauldrons, who were just on the verge of death, miraculously recovered. Their skin was even more hydrated than before, like seductive flower petals waiting to be picked.
Seeing this, Hongyu waved his hand.
Instantly, the entire Deer Joy Pavilion was filled with blush-inducing moans again.
A full four hours later, night fell.
The moonlight was deathly pale, and the swirling clouds were tinged with an eerie blood color, pressing heavily on people's hearts.
"Caw, caw, caw ~ ~"
The wind picked up, and a large flock of crows startled into flight, adding to the desolation and oppression of the night.
Hongyu and the others leisurely got up from the bodies of the cauldrons, who were deader than dead, looking calm and composed.
"Drag them out and feed them to our Savage Bull." Hongyu said.
"But, that bull belongs to Ye Kong." A subordinate retorted in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter; it has to be Ye Kong's. This Savage Bull will eat such miserable wronged souls, and when Ye Kong comes to find trouble with us."
"We'll let his good bull deal with him!"
Hongyu smiled sinisterly, laughed madly, and grinned evilly.
"Master is wise." The subordinates seized the opportunity to flatter him.
An incense stick's time later, Hongyu led his subordinates to another continent.
"By the order of Heaven and Earth, and the command of the Law King, a new law is hereby announced to the people: All cultivators in the Immortal Realm are forbidden from voluntarily becoming cauldrons."
"Those who violate this law will be punished with the most severe punishment in the Immortal Realm. We hope that the people will supervise each other and restore a pure world to the Immortal Realm. By decree!"
A literate cultivator read the notice on the wall aloud.
The people were overjoyed upon hearing this.
However, no one noticed the trickery involved.
Voluntarily? Who would abandon the bright path and voluntarily walk this dark and gloomy road?
"Master is brilliant. This move not only helps the Law King with his affairs but also benefits us. Most importantly, it's a revenge against Ye Kong."
"It's truly wonderful!"
"That's right; those ignorant people were still grateful!"
After this incident, Hongyu's subordinates were completely convinced by Hongyu.
They secretly regarded Hongyu as a role model for their careers and a compass for their advancement.
逍遥 Peak, Ye Kong, who was absorbing the spiritual power of the Immortal Realm, suddenly felt a tremor in his body.
"Not good, Hongyu and the others are out." Ye Kong instantly realized that there was a problem with Hongyu and the others.
He immediately left 逍遥 Peak, summoned his Spirit Boat, and tore through the realm to leave.
"Those ignorant people ~ ~" Hongyu, thinking of his actions just now, was very pleased with himself and was bragging when he received a palm strike to the face.
"How dare you! You dare to hit me!"
Hongyu was instantly enraged, and his entire body surged with spiritual power, forming a huge fireball that he threw forward.
"Heh, in such a short time, you've made quite a bit of progress!" Ye Kong coldly smiled as he caught the fireball, the smile not reaching his eyes.
"You, this ~ ~" Seeing that it was Ye Kong, Hongyu instantly sobered up, and dense beads of cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
"What? Not convinced?" Ye Kong took another step forward, staring at Hongyu.
"Master, we just absorbed so much energy. There are so many of us; we should be able to defeat this Ye Kong. Why don't we fight him!" One of Hongyu's subordinates, who greatly admired him, couldn't stand surrendering without a fight and urged Hongyu on.
"That's right, then we'll kill this Ye Kong and take back our freedom!" Hongyu gritted his back teeth, but before he could even make an attacking move, his jaw dropped in fright.
Ye Kong had already heard their conversation. He wouldn't tolerate this group of misfits. He casually threw the fireball in his hand, and it accurately hit the head of the subordinate who had been urging Hongyu on.
A blue flame first burned a small spot on the person's head, then spread throughout the person's skull with lightning speed.
Accompanied by the foul odor emanating from the air, the person's head was burned to ashes.
In less than the blink of an eye, the person was completely burned to nothing, not even leaving behind any ash.
Even more terrifyingly, Hongyu could see that a wisp of the person's soul that had escaped was also caught up by the fire and burned completely.
In a short moment, the air was clean, as if this person had never existed in the world.
Even more terrifyingly, as this person's life faded away, their memories of this person were also being erased bit by bit, until they became a blank slate.
"This ~ ~" Hongyu's scalp tingled. He moved his mouth and had just uttered a word when one of his subordinates next to him burst into flames.
His death was exactly the same as the previous person's, and no memories were left behind.
"Ye Kong!" Hongyu's mind was a bit chaotic, but more than that, he was furious. He was unwilling.
But as soon as he said the words, two of his subordinates next to him immediately burst into flames, died, faded away, and disappeared!
"Master, we'll go back with you! We won't run away anymore." Finally, someone was scared out of their wits and knelt at Ye Kong's feet, weeping bitterly.
"Master, I won't dare anymore. We'll go back with you!" All of Hongyu's subordinates knelt down; they didn't want to die.
Although they didn't have freedom, at least they were alive.
Hongyu bit his lower lip tightly, still hesitating.
Ye Kong didn't say anything, leisurely watching Hongyu, which made Hongyu feel extremely frightened and uneasy.
Seeing Ye Kong raise his index finger, Hongyu could no longer hold on. He knelt down with a "plop" and said.
"Master, this sinful slave will never dare again. This sinful slave will go back now."
Hongyu was scared out of his wits.
"Very good. After you go back, graze the cattle well."
"When the male Savage Bull you are grazing gives birth to a small Savage Bull one day, you will be freed." Ye Kong smiled.
Hongyu and the others' faces turned pale upon hearing this.
Letting a male Savage Bull give birth to a small Savage Bull, wasn't that a fantasy? How was that possible?
"What? Not convinced?" Ye Kong leisurely looked at Hongyu.
"The sinful slaves wouldn't dare." Hongyu no longer had the arrogance he had before. His head was almost buried in the dirt, and his group of subordinates had already been scared out of their wits.
"Very good." Ye Kong walked away with his hands behind his back.
And Hongyu and the others were sent back to their original place by a gust of wind from the ground.
"You, just live without hope; death is too easy for you." Ye Kong's voice echoed in the air.
