For these powerhouses, including the numerous powerhouses from any other force.
The vast majority of them are actually outsiders who joined this force.
Joining a certain force is simply because they basically have no attachments in this world.
Relying on their own skills and realm, joining a sect can give them stability, because generally speaking, truly powerful sects don't easily engage in wars.
And then they can also receive a considerable salary.
Basically, they just cultivate properly in the sect.
If the sect needs to fight, then logically and emotionally, they definitely have to take action.
But, if faced with immense pressure, and at the same time their sect leader is already dead.
Is there still a need to risk their lives?
Just like the current situation.
The Heavenly Profound Emperor is dead.
Xu Fengqiu has attacked.
Yes, it seems that Xu Fengqiu has a huge disadvantage.
It's somewhat defying the heavens for an Eternal First Divine Sect to dare to fight them.
However, Xu Fengqiu himself has sealed this place off.
Does that mean he doesn't want anyone to escape?
Where does he get his confidence?
Regardless of where he gets his confidence, he seems to have this ability.
Then, their spokesperson, the extremely powerful Supreme Immortal Emperor, Martial Limit Immortal Emperor, was instantly killed by Xu Fengqiu in front of them.
This further shattered the last line of defense in their hearts.
Xu Fengqiu then said: "Among you, this Emperor knows that the vast majority of you actually don't have much of a relationship with the Heavenly Profound Empire's royal family, you just joined the royal family and became members of the royal family, a portion of you are indeed confidants of the Heavenly Profound Emperor, and there are indeed some who once fought to establish the empire."
"Except for these two groups of people, for the others, if you want to live, this Emperor will give you a chance to live, either leave, or join the Eternal First Divine Sect."
Xu Fengqiu's words also made those people very tempted.
Because the Supreme Immortal Emperor was killed by Xu Fengqiu like an ant.
To take a step back, Xu Fengqiu might not be able to kill all of them, but he can at least kill a large portion.
"Hmph! Don't listen to his Xu Fengqiu's words, everyone!"
A royal family powerhouse stood out.
He was someone who had fought alongside the Heavenly Profound Emperor to establish the empire.
He was an elder of the royal family.
He then continued to say: "He is just trying to sow discord among us, to shake our morale, the reason why he wants to do this is because he doesn't have the confidence to deal with us, he can only use this method to shake us."
There is some truth to it.
But…
For these people, they actually don't really want to fight anymore.
The Heavenly Profound Emperor is dead.
Could it be that they should continue to follow these other powerhouses who fought to establish the empire with the Heavenly Profound Emperor?
To be honest, there's really no need.
It doesn't make much sense.
Moreover, they are also uneasy now.
If they can win, then it doesn't really matter.
But now, the Heavenly Profound Empire's royal family is basically already dilapidated.
Even if they don't fight today, I'm afraid there will be many people who will withdraw.
Therefore…
Xu Fengqiu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Whoosh—
He directly rushed towards that Immortal Emperor.
Even the Supreme Immortal Emperor was instantly killed by Xu Fengqiu, so what more could be said about him?
That powerhouse's pupils also shrank.
No, is this Xu Fengqiu really just a reckless man?
Are you really just taking action without hesitation?
"Attack!"
However, apart from those in the royal family who had a good relationship with the Heavenly Profound Emperor, or even those who were the Heavenly Profound Emperor's confidants, they seemed to have taken some action.
Everyone else seemed to be unmoved at this moment.
Then the result was also very obvious.
That powerhouse didn't dare to clash with Xu Fengqiu's power at all.
He couldn't outrun Xu Fengqiu either.
And since Xu Fengqiu had already revealed the Law of Power, then he could use the Law of Power without any scruples.
Swish—
Just a flash of cold light, Xu Fengqiu rushed over.
That powerhouse had no choice, he could only use all his skills to resist.
He also tried to use spiritual tools and other means to restrict Xu Fengqiu in the middle.
However, they basically had no effect on Xu Fengqiu!
What made him most desperate was.
So many royal family powerhouses, they were actually just staring blankly.
There were a few of them who looked like they wanted to attack but didn't dare to attack.
Then…
Without any obstruction.
Xu Fengqiu killed him.
Xu Fengqiu's gaze then swept over everyone.
"This Emperor will only give you ten breaths of time to consider."
Xu Fengqiu said indifferently with his hands behind his back.
As soon as Xu Fengqiu's voice fell, an old man stood out.
"This old man has already stayed in this royal family for a long enough time, the contributions that should be made have already been made, at this moment, this old man's withdrawal can be considered as having a clear conscience."
When one person takes the lead to stand out, then there will be a continuous stream of people.
Then, more and more people also stood out: "Yes, this old man is also in this situation."
"Yes, we joined the royal family because of the Heavenly Profound Emperor, since the Heavenly Profound Emperor has fallen, then what is the point of us staying in this royal family?"
"That's right, that's right."
"… …"
And those who had a better relationship with the Heavenly Profound Emperor couldn't help but twitch their mouths when they heard these words.
Joined the royal family for the sake of the Heavenly Profound Emperor?
Then, the Heavenly Profound Emperor was killed by Xu Fengqiu, and now the murderer is right in front of your eyes.
Shouldn't you be saying that you want to kill Xu Fengqiu to avenge the Heavenly Profound Emperor?
Instead, you are saying that since he is already dead, there is no need to stay?
"Hmph! A bunch of ingrates, a bunch of ingrates!"
Another royal family powerhouse pointed at them and roared angrily.
"His Majesty treated you well, how are you treating him?"
Since there is now someone who has emerged and is criticizing them so much, then this contradiction has also been directly intensified.
Originally, some people were still relatively guilty.
But now, they also directly stood out and said:
"Yes, His Majesty did treat us well, but didn't we do what we should have done? Didn't we do anything? Each of us also has a clear conscience! Joining the royal family is because we want stability, and because the Heavenly Profound Royal Family is a divine-level force, then wouldn't it be the same if we joined any divine-level force?"
"His Majesty treated us well, but it's not to the extent that other sects can't compare, right? He only did what he should have done, we all have a clear conscience!"
"Yes, the only thing we can do is to ask Sect Leader Xu to spare the lives of the several princes and princesses, if they can be preserved, wouldn't that mean that we have an even clearer conscience towards His Majesty?"
"That's right! What else do you want us to do? Risk our lives? No problem, but today is different from the past."
"… …"
"You! !"
Some people close to the Heavenly Profound Emperor were also furious, but to be honest, there was no reason to refute.
