Chapter 721 - 721 707 Ling Bos Surrender

Chapter 721: Chapter 707: Ling Bo’s Surrender Chapter 721: Chapter 707: Ling Bo’s Surrender San Gui really had surrendered, like a whipped dog. Ye Chen had given orders that those who surrendered must not be killed. What else could Li Mo do but to have him captured and held?

Li Mo went to see Ye Chen and said, “I didn’t expect Zun Yu and Ming Bei to suddenly attack. Our people didn’t arrive in time, Zhao Kun lacks experience, and they managed to escape with Gui Lang.”

Ye Chen didn’t blame him. He just nodded slightly and headed towards the city gate.

Li Mo added, “However, not many of them have escaped. We can track them down. They have nowhere to run.”

By now, the New City Sect had virtually taken control of the Wastelands.

But Ye Chen said, “No rush. Call Shi Mu and Shen Bai for me first.”

Immediately, Li Mo went out to fetch them.

Kong Sha was leading the cleanup of the battlefield.

Ye Chen continued towards the top of the city walls. The city gates had already been flung open. He saw Jiang Zhuge and asked, “How’s the situation?”

Jiang Zhuge replied, “Sect Leader was right. There are no real fighters left in the city.” After several waves of attacks, he had successfully repelled those attempting to take back the city gate.

“Who’s in charge of defending the city, Ling Bo?”

“Ah, Sect Leader knows about him too.”

“Didn’t you mention him before, saying if it hadn’t been for him, Big Beard would no longer be the big boss of the dark lands.”

“Is Big Beard dead?”

“Yuan Menhai killed him with a single slap.”

Jiang Zhuge was taken aback by this news and exclaimed, “I had never expected Yuan Menhai to be so ruthless.” By now, he also knew that Yuan Menhai, Tan Gao, Luo Hai were all dead.

“Hmm, certainly ruthless indeed.”

“Perhaps I should lead a team in, give me an hour, and I can take out Ling Bo.”

“Haven’t you killed enough already? Too many people have died today.” Ye Chen knew that Ling Bo was a gifted individual.

“Sect Leader wishes to recruit Ling Bo.”

“Ah, he’s not someone who must die. After all, the most hateful ones are already dead.”

Hearing that, Jiang Zhuge nodded.

Li Mo arrived with Shi Mu and Shen Bai.

Shi Mu spoke, “Zun Yu won’t have gotten far. If we pursue him now, there’s still a chance we can catch him.”

“Take your time with that, return first and organize a fast horse team. Don’t let Gui Lang return to Bishui City, otherwise, we’ll have another battle on our hands.” Ye Chen made the suggestion.

Shi Mu quickly understood and said, “That’s right, there’s likely hardly anyone left in Bishui City.”

“Exactly. Once you block all the rat holes, where else can they go!”

Shi Mu nodded and said, “Indeed, I’ll go right away.”

“Go with Li Yue, I’ve already prepared fast horses for you.”

Shi Mu quickly left the scene.

Ye Chen then told Li Mo, “Li Mo, find out where Gui Lang, Zun Yu, and Ming Bei have run off to. If there are any updates, immediately report back to me.”

“Understood.”

“See if they’re sticking together, or acting separately.”

After hearing this, Li Mo too, left.

Shen Bai came to congratulate Ye Chen, “Congratulations, Sect Leader, the Wastelands will be belong to the New City Sect in the future.”

Ye Chen chuckled and said, “Not necessarily. We still need to help each other manage the Wastelands well in the future.”

Shen Bai smiled and asked, “Did Sect Leader call for me for a specific reason?”

“I heard that you have some connections with Ling Bo.”

“Yes, I do.”

“Could you help me persuade him to surrender to the New City Sect?”

Shen Bai turned to look at him.

Ye Chen continued, “We’ve been killing all day. What’s the point of more killing?” There seems to be no necessity for a fight to the death anymore.

“Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

“Thank you so much.”

“Don’t mention it.”

Ling Bo had charged for a while but failed to retake the city gate. He retreated. The news of Yuan Menhai, Tan Gao, and Luo Hai’s death and Zun Yu, Ming Bei, leading a small group to escape reached him.

He didn’t know what to do next, or what kind of fate awaited him. He knew the New City Sect’s hatred for the Third Demon—the enmity over a slain wife and the resentment over a broken city. It wasn’t taken lightly.

Some people were stirring up trouble, talking about surrendering. Others suggested seizing the people in the city. If they didn’t let them out, they would kill the civilians and make a clean break.

With just over a hundred of them, there was no chance of bargaining. Perhaps seizing people was an opportunity, but if they did that, they would completely lose their way out; moreover, the ones they would seize were innocent. He didn’t know what to do. The New City Sect people hadn’t attacked.

It seemed that the New City Sect people didn’t want to kill too many civilians, so they hadn’t recklessly stormed in.

While growing increasingly anxious, he suddenly received news that Shen Bai was requesting an audience.

Knowing that Shen Bai had also participated in this crusade, Ling Bo, who was on good terms with Shen Bai, instantly stood up and called out, “Quickly, bring him in.” It seemed he had already guessed the purpose of the visit.

Shen Bai had already stepped in and straight away said, “Brother Ling Bo, how are you?”.

“Hehehe, don’t you see if I’m doing well or not!” Ling Bo laughed.

“Yuan Menhai has already died, Zun Yu has escaped with a small group of people. Do you plan to stay here and do nothing?”

These words were asked knowingly.

“Did the Sect Leader of the New City Sect send you?” Ling Bo asked.

“Who else would dare to sneak in and see you clandestinely?”

“Does he plan to kill us all?”

Shen Bai said, “No, the Sect Leader of the New City Sect isn’t a butcher. He said that he’s tired of killing and doesn’t want to do it anymore.”

“So, is he going to let us go?”

“He wants to invite you to join the New City Sect.”

Ling Bo paused in disbelief, “Are you joking with me? Would he let me join the New City Sect?”

“Yes, he wants you to join the New City Sect. Apart from those who died, everyone outside has surrendered. They might join the New City Sect. Yuan Menhai is already dead, the Third Demon is no longer around, and those few people that Zun Yu took with him can only run for their lives. There’s no need to sacrifice for the people of the Third Demon.”

Shen Bai continued, “Brother Ling Bo, you’re talented. With your help, the bearded man has been a leader in the dark zone for many years. It’s a pity that the bearded man was ruthless and merited death due to his plundering and burning, but you had no choice. The Sect Leader of the New City Sect knows all this, so he wants to pull you into the new city sect.”

Ling Bo asked, “What about the bearded man now?”

“He’s already been killed by Yuan Menhai.”

Ling Bo shivered.

“The prime culprit is already dead. No more innocent people should die. Join the New City Sect. To be honest, even I want to join. The New City Sect, is destined to be the master of the Wastelands. Everything has been finalized. No one else should die innocently.”

Ling Bo asked, “What about the men who follow me?”

“If they’re willing, they can certainly pledge allegiance to the New City Sect, but if not, they can leave. The people of the New City Sect won’t do anything to them.” Shen Bai continued, “The Wastelands need rest and recuperation.

As far as I know, you can trust Sect Leader Ye. Don’t worry that he will trick you. He wouldn’t do such a thing. Even when he chose to fight Yuan Menhai, he tried to avoid harming the citizens of Sky Domain City, which is rare.

In the future, the Wastelands will be the New City Sect’s territory. You can achieve great things in the future. Many people want to join but don’t have the chance. You should seize this opportunity. The opportunity shouldn’t be missed.

What can you do now? Can you escape if you try to? If you take the people in the city hostage and demand they let you go, will you end up on the run like Zunyu and his men? Face the facts and look ahead. The future is still beautiful.”

Ling Bo nodded and said, “Alright, I surrender.”

At first, he was worried and unsure what kind of person Ye Chen was. However, after hearing what Shen Bai had said, he gained some confidence.

“That’s great. Brother Ling Bo, your decision is absolutely correct,”

Guo Yuyun had only just managed to recall his two monsters.

Unknowingly, dusk had already fallen. Hearing that Ye Chen wanted Ling Bo and his men to surrender, he couldn’t believe it and rushed in to confirm the news.

“Monkey, I heard you asked Ling Bo and his men to surrender?”

“Yes, why?” Ye Chen drank a sip of wine and asked curiously.

“How can you let them surrender?”

“Do you mean we should kill them all?”

“They’ve committed countless atrocities, shouldn’t we eliminate them?”

“Then you go and kill them, how does that sound?”

Yun’er glared at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen laughed, and continued, “The main culprit, Yuan Menhai, is already dead. We don’t necessarily have to kill everyone to solve the problem. If you push Ling bo into a corner, what if he takes the citizens hostage?”

Yun’er looked at Ye Chen, “Isn’t that too lenient?”

“Girl, you can’t be so ruthless. You really won’t be able to get married.”

A foot came kicking over, but Ye Chen dodged it.

Ye Chen continued, “Many people are compelled to follow Yuan Menhai. They only committed those atrocities because they were acting under orders. Actually, Ling Bo hasn’t done anything bad. Anyway, it’s pointless to discuss this now. The key point is, enough people have died in the Wastelands. We shouldn’t let any more people die. What’s wrong with everyone getting along?”

“What about Zun Yu, Ming Bei, and Gui Lang?”

After listening, Ye Chen was silent for a while and said, “I think they must have fled. They probably won’t dare to stay in the Wastelands anymore.”

“So that’s it?” Yun’er asked.

“What do you think we should do?”

“Track them. We’ll deal with them, especially that Ming Bei and Gui Lang. They’re really bad.”

“We’ll figure it out slowly.”

While they were talking, Shen Bai brought Ling Bo and a few other influential people to them from the other side.

Ye Chen also stood up and went forward to greet them.

As soon as Ling Bo came, he knelt down on the ground and said, “Ling Bo pays respect to the Sect Leader. I will work like an ox and a horse for the Sect Leader in the future.”
