150: surrender?

After all, to ensure the success of this operation, she had specifically brought an Imperial Light Shield Class E starship.

Although this starship was only a planetary-class starship, it should be more than enough to deal with a force within a second-level civilization.

Looking down at the Fenghua Sect members, when they saw the "colossus" suddenly appearing in the sky, they were all so astonished they couldn't close their mouths, their faces filled with surprise and disbelief.

They had never seen such a massive object, brimming with a mysterious aura, and the powerful oppressive feeling that washed over them caused an inexplicable fear to surge in their hearts.

Before this vast and unknown mysterious power, they felt their own insignificance and powerlessness.

"What... what exactly is that thing?"

Among the Fenghua Sect members, someone was the first to utter this sound, filled with fear and doubt.

Not only the disciples of the Fenghua Sect, but even the numerous sect spies lurking on the periphery, silently observing the grand spectacle about to unfold, now harbored the same thoughts, their eyes full of shock and confusion.

"Could this be some powerful magical artifact? But how could there be such a massive magical artifact..."

Xue Yue finally recovered from the shock, his gaze fixed on the colossus in the sky, muttering to himself unconsciously.

At this moment, he already understood a few things in his heart. No wonder the other party had dared to confidently declare yesterday that they would eliminate a top sect. Just this unknown, infinitely mysterious, and powerful colossus in front of him already brought him considerable pressure, making him feel an unprecedented threat.

"Your Excellency, yesterday's words were merely a joke. I hope you, with your magnanimity, can be more understanding..."

Xue Yue knew that the situation was dire at this moment; a slight misstep could lead to the entire Fenghua Sect's eternal damnation.

Thus, he quickly circulated his spiritual energy, flew a bit higher, and shouted loudly towards the starship above.

In his opinion, wasn't it just surrendering and admitting defeat? As long as the lives of everyone in the sect could be preserved, it would at most be a loss of face.

Furthermore, facing this awe-inspiring mysterious giant, anyone would feel apprehension and confusion.

Meanwhile, the spies secretly observing from the periphery, upon hearing the Fenghua Sect Master's words of lightning-fast surrender, immediately erupted into a commotion, all unable to resist complaining.

"Hmph, they kept claiming to be a top sect of the Evil Path? After all that, it turns out they're just a bunch of cowards!"

A spy from The Righteous Sects said with a slight sneer and a look of disdain.

"Hey! You, a spy from the Righteous Faction, not only trespassed into our Evil Path's territory, but now you dare to speak so presumptuously? If you're truly capable, then tell your sect master to go up and fight that colossus!"

Another Evil Path spy nearby, hearing the Righteous Faction spy's mockery, immediately became displeased, his eyes wide, stepping forward, and aggressively questioned him.

"Heh, I heard that your Fenghua Sect was the one who was unconvinced and actively challenged them. Now that you're scared and want to surrender, are people not allowed to talk about it?"

Facing the Evil Path spy's questioning, the Righteous Faction spy showed no weakness, continuing to respond with a mocking expression, his words full of provocation.

"Damn you! If you have the guts, don't leave later. If I don't make you pay with your life here today, I'll take your surname!"

The Evil Path spy was enraged by the Righteous Faction spy's string of taunts, veins bulging on his forehead, his eyes bloodshot, like an enraged beast, he threatened fiercely.

"Oh, how scary! I don't want a son like you, who causes trouble, is cowardly, and is afraid of death..."

The Righteous Faction spy remained relentless, continuing to provoke the Evil Path spy with his acrid words.

This barrage of verbal attacks immediately made the Evil Path spy "red hot"; his face instantly flushed crimson, like a ripe tomato, his hands tightly clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white from the exertion.

If he hadn't still remembered the mission he was here for, he would have undoubtedly drawn the long saber from his waist and charged at the Righteous Faction spy to fight to the death.

And at this moment, Su Xia, in the starship's Command Room, upon hearing Xue Yue's words of surrender, a faint sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She mused to herself that her purpose in coming here was not simply to wander around and show off.

Now, so many "opportunities" to collect orbs (precious items) for the mission were laid out so clearly before her, like ripe fruits waiting to be picked; how could she easily stop?

Moreover, this was an excellent opportunity to weaken the xuanhuan civilization's strength.

Su Xia understood that this xuanhuan civilization, as a second-level civilization, possessed considerable strength and was by no means comparable to the first-level civilizations that could be easily bullied.

That's why she had painstakingly devised a way to stir up conflict between their Righteous and Evil Paths.

After all, if the Righteous and Evil Paths were to unite and resist their group's occupation of this star region, then even if the mission was ultimately completed, their side would inevitably suffer considerable losses.

"Sorry, your people didn't say that yesterday."

Su Xia's lips curled into a cold smile, and through the starship's external broadcast device, her voice, clear and resonant, reached Xue Yue's ears.

Upon hearing this, Xue Yue's brows furrowed tightly, as if he was contemplating something.

A moment later, his spiritual energy suddenly erupted, and his figure flickered, instantly disappearing from his original spot.

In the blink of an eye, he reappeared in the air, but this time, he was holding a man in his hand.

This man was none other than the Effeminate Man from yesterday.

At this moment, the Effeminate Man's face was filled with terror, his eyes brimming with despair and helplessness, as he begged for mercy, tears streaming down his face.

"Sect Master, please spare me. You promised me yesterday!"

He struggled desperately, his hands flailing wildly in the air, his legs kicking continuously, attempting to break free from Xue Yue's iron-like grip and escape.

However, he was merely a minor character in the Qi Transformation Realm; how could he contend with Xue Yue, who had entered the Yiqi Realm? Xue Yue's arm was as steady as a mountain; no matter how the Effeminate Man struggled, he could not budge it in the slightest.

Xue Yue's face was ashen, and he slowly extended his other hand, which, like an iron pincer, firmly gripped the Effeminate Man's head.

Immediately after, his arm muscles instantly bulged, erupting with terrifying strength. With a muffled "thud," the Effeminate Man's head instantly burst open like a watermelon, red and white matter splashing out.

The Effeminate Man, who had been desperately struggling and begging for mercy, instantly fell silent, becoming a headless corpse.
