Chapter 562 The Last Mercy
Chapter 562 The Last Mercy
"It's over, it's all over." Feng Zhongzheng and others came over and saw the glorious Dao Sect reduced to ruins. Feng Zhongzheng was filled with grief, "Hundreds of years, hundreds of years of Dao Sect heritage, gone, all gone!"
"You, you are not worthy of being Haotian. This is the Dao Sect, the number one sect in Jiuzhou and even the entire world."
"For all these years, you've never cared about the Dao Sect, and now you've come and destroyed it. You... Oh, God, hundreds of years of hard work..."
Feng Zhongzheng knelt amidst the ruins, grief-stricken. Up ahead, over a hundred Daoist sect members had gathered, their faces grim.
He sat on the ruins during the day, holding the golden "Haotian Book" in his hands, his face calm.
Feng Zhongzheng's eyes were filled with tears. He ignored the burning pain on both sides of his face and looked at Bai Tian with resentment. He shouted, "Is this the result you want? Why do you want to destroy our Taoist sect?"
Bai Tian didn't answer, but just calmly flipped through the Haotian Book.
Feng Zhongzheng became more and more angry. He stood up and said indignantly: "Who are you, Haotian? You are not worthy!"
"Yes, the Dao Sect is indeed no longer under the control of the Sect Master. Yes, our power surpasses that of Emperor Tian, and we did not ascend according to your so-called ascension plan..."
"Even if we are wrong, you can just kill us. Why destroy the Dao Sect? Hundreds of years of hard work, it is the symbol of Kyushu."
"Do you know what chaos the Nine Provinces will be like without the Dao Sect? By then, there will be many families in the Nine Provinces, and the Kingdom of Heaven will be destroyed!"
Feng Zhongzheng became more and more excited as he spoke, and pointed at Bai Tian and cursed him again.
The people around didn't dare to agree, but it could be seen from their expressions that they also hated the daytime.
There was no ripple during the day, just letting the wind roar.
Bai Tian waited until Feng Zhongzheng was tired of spraying before closing the Haotian Book. Then he slowly raised his head. He first glanced at everyone, then set his eyes on Ying Ye: "You think so too?"
Ying Ye opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly thought of the "solution" he had just mentioned during the day. His heart trembled suddenly and his face became even paler.
Ying Ye suppressed his pounding heart and said in a low voice, "Haotian, you want to help the Kingdom of Heaven and drive us away... no, you want to kill us completely, right?"
Bai Tian smiled a little: "I'm quite relieved that there are still smart people here."
After receiving the response, Yingye's heart sank and he laughed miserably: "I understand, hehe..."
"In fact, the source of our power is irrelevant to you. Even if it didn't matter, you would find a reason to send us away and then destroy the Dao Sect!"
"I knew it, I knew it. For so many years, the Dao Sect has been suppressing the Heavenly Kingdom. Dealing with the Dao Sect is the most important thing for the Heavenly Kingdom right now!"
"You destroy the Dao Sect and force all its members to return to the Kingdom of Heaven. Ideally, we can then establish the family cultivation we desire. Then, the Kingdom of Heaven can use this as an excuse to cleanse them..."
"What a cruel calculation, so cruel, so cruel!"
The more he spoke, the more anxious Ying Ye became, and his legs even felt a little weak.
Feng Zhongzheng and the others also understood, and they all felt a chill run down their spines. No wonder they had destroyed the Taoist buildings first, just to make the biggest noise possible, so that everyone would immediately believe that the Taoist sect was gone.
The wind was weighing on my heart, and my voice was particularly gloomy: "If Heaven wants to deal with us, just say so directly. Why bother asking you to come in person!"
"Because he is Haotian!" Ying Ye's voice trembled a little. "He is Haotian. It is natural for him to destroy the Dao Sect! Moreover, only if he takes action can everyone in Jiuzhou be convinced."
"I've said it before, the Kingdom of Heaven will take action against the Dao Sect sooner or later, oh, sooner or later!"
His lips were trembling in the wind as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips he didn't know how to say them, so he could only stare with grief and anger.
Ying Ye knelt on the ground, trembling: "Haotian, give the Dao Sect a chance to live. The Dao Sect has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it shouldn't die like this."
Bai Tian was still very calm, gently stroking the Haotian Book in his hand, and said indifferently: "What was the goal when the Dao Sect was founded?"
Everyone was stunned. What did this mean?
Bai Tian lowered his head and said, "When I wrote this book, I discussed this issue with Cang Jie. The original goal of Taoism was to spread the teachings, but later it became more about inheritance."
"But since Cangjie's death, what has been passed down by the Daoist sect? What has been passed down in terms of teachings?"
"To co-opt evil techniques and sacrifice others' lives to improve one's own cultivation? Or, to control power and toy with all living beings?"
After these words were spoken, Ying Ye and others dared not say a word.
Bai Tian slowly stood up and sighed softly, "What a pity! The Dao sect that once dared to explore has long since disappeared with the death of Cang Jie."
"When you believe that Taoism is superior to Heaven, it is time for Taoism to die."
"So, let's go. Leave Jiuzhou and find a place suitable for you to play around. Jiuzhou Dao Sect ends from now on. This is my greatest forgiveness to you."
"As for you so-called strong ones, go and ascend."
Feng Zhongzheng gritted his teeth and said, "Without the Dao Sect in Jiuzhou, it will surely be suppressed by other countries..."
"Over the years, which attack has the Taoist sect blocked for the Kingdom of Heaven?" Bai Tian suddenly turned his head.
Feng Zhongzheng opened his mouth and explained the whole story.
Bai Tian smiled. "So, even you know that since Cang Jie's death, the Dao Sect has been a burden. Not only has it failed to help the Heavenly Kingdom, but it has repeatedly hindered it."
"When Nancheng in the south rose up in rebellion, you were plotting how to suppress Emperor Ku. It was you who instigated the secession of Beiming in the north. Oh, and the recent decline of the Zhou Kingdom in recent years must have been your doing as well."
Feng Zhongzheng and others lowered their heads, not daring to look at Bai Tian.
Bai Tian kept smiling: "Power, control of the world. If you have such ambitions, why did you join the Taoist sect? If the Taoist sect is all like this, why not create a country that you can toy with?"
No one dared to respond. Everyone lowered their heads, with different expressions.
Bai Tian sighed again: "Let it end. This is my last act of mercy. Jiuzhou Daomen and Haotian will become history from now on. That's all I have to say."
He really gave them enough face, otherwise he wouldn't bother to say more.
According to what is recorded in the Haotian Book, the Taoist sect has really been doing nothing in recent years!
Allowing them to leave alive was already the greatest kindness he could show during the day. As for the subsequent calculations, it can still be said that he deserved it!
Feng Zhongzheng was still very unwilling and wanted to say something, but Ying Ye said bitterly: "So, the Dao Sect now has only one way left, leaving Jiuzhou."
There are actually two paths: leaving Kyushu, or being completely destroyed...
Bai Tian did not respond, but stood there quietly. He seemed so cold, so cold that the air around him was stagnant.
Ying Ye sighed, stood up, looked at the Taoist disciples behind him, and said loudly: "Jiuzhou Taoist Sect, disperse. You, leave Jiuzhou as soon as possible and never come back..."
Feng Zhongzheng said gloomily, "Why?! They are all from Jiuzhou, why should they leave? I don't believe that if the Dao Sect is gone, we can't stay in Jiuzhou..."
Bai Tian suddenly raised his head and asked, "Are you sure you want to stay? Are you sure?"
That sharp look made Feng Zhongzheng's heart skip a beat and his back feel cold. However, he still firmly believed that Haotian could not really kill him in public.
So, Feng Zhongzheng nodded resolutely: "I will stay in Jiuzhou..."
