Chapter 1105: Chapter 1105: The Brink of Life and Death
Fang Bai’s smile, when it fell into Han Xingyu’s eyes, caused her heart to involuntarily skip a beat, as she remembered that this seemingly harmless youth had just killed the Purple Flame Sect’s Sect Master Zu Tiangang. Even two early-stage Cosmic Level Experts from Swiftwind Valley had fallen by his hand.
Moreover, Fang Bai’s body seemed to still hold an unsettling aura of evil Qi that hadn’t yet dissipated, a common phenomenon among martial artists after slaughtering in anger.
Han Xingyu shook her head and said with a wry smile, "I’m not pleading on their behalf. It’s just that they have all suffered heavy injuries and it’s very unlikely that they would recover their peak strength. They won’t pose much of a threat now, so there’s no need for killing... Of course, that’s just my personal view. How you treat them, Fang Bai, is still your own decision."
"Elder Han, showing mercy to enemies is cruelty to oneself! Only by completely uprooting them can future troubles be prevented! Fang Bai, I think we can spare the ordinary disciples of the Purple Flame Sect, but the high-ranking ones must be killed," Ge Feng said with determination.
As Ge Feng saw it, if the Purple Flame Sect were likened to a dragon, then the dozen or so Vast Level Experts would be the head of the dragon. By beheading the dragon, the other disciples of the Purple Flame Sect would not be able to make any waves and pose any threat.
If Fang Bai spared the high-ranking members of the Purple Flame Sect, and if any one of them encountered a fortuitous opportunity to recover their strength, it could be a disaster, especially if Fang Bai had already left Bitao Martial Academy. After all, the weakest among the Purple Flame Sect’s higher-ups were early-stage Vast Level Experts, while the strongest person in Bitao Martial Academy, apart from Fang Bai, was Ren Jingbo, the academy head who was only at Desolate Level Perfection and unable to contend with the Purple Flame Sect’s higher-ups.
After Han Xingyu and Ge Feng gave their opinions, they both turned to look at Fang Bai, knowing that the lives of these high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect hung on Fang Bai’s thoughts.
Fang Bai’s gaze swept over the thirteen high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect, who were on their last breath. After a moment’s thought, he finally said, "Originally, I was going to kill all of these people, but what Elder Han has said makes sense... Alright then, I will spare their lives."
Ge Feng, seeing that Fang Bai was actually planning to spare those high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect, became anxious. He opened his mouth, wanting to persuade him otherwise, but then heard Fang Bai continue, "However, their death sentence can be spared, but they cannot escape the punishment for living crimes."
Having said that, Fang Bai walked up to the collapsed bodies of the high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect and lightly tapped each of them, utterly destroying their Qi Sea.
By doing so, the thirteen high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect were now normal people who could no longer cultivate. Unless they consumed an Immortal Pill or Divine Medicine, which could possibly regather their Qi Sea, they would live mediocre lives until the end of their days.
"I have destroyed their Qi Sea; let them live as ordinary people from now on," Fang Bai stated indifferently as he returned to the sides of Ge Feng and Han Xingyu.
Ge Feng was very satisfied with Fang Bai’s way of handling the situation, laughing heartily, "They have kept their lives, and from now on they won’t be able to pose a threat to Bitao Martial Academy. This is the best resolution!"
Han Xingyu let out a quiet sigh, still wearing a bitter smile on her face.
She herself felt that Fang Bai’s treatment of the high-ranking officials of the Purple Flame Sect was the best method, but at the same time, she felt pity for them.
Just imagine, the Purple Flame Sect’s high-ranking officials, who were once esteemed and worshiped, commanding respect and having control over the life and death of numerous beings, had now become the lowest of common people. That massive plummet from heaven to hell, how many could endure it?
Han Xingyu didn’t know how others would react in such a situation, but if it were her, she felt that she certainly wouldn’t have the courage to continue living.
It was unclear how many of those thirteen high-ranking Purple Flame Sect members could surmount the hurdle between life and death.
Fang Bai, by crippling their Qi Sea, hadn’t killed them, but he employed a method even more formidable than killing.
"Disciples of the Purple Flame Sect, listen up. If any of you wish to leave, I won’t make it difficult for you. But remember, from now on, this place belongs to the Bitao Martial Academy. Do not attack the disciples of the Bitao Martial Academy, or I will not be polite. I’ve killed your Sect Master, I wouldn’t mind killing a few more disciples!" Fang Bai said loudly, his gaze sweeping over each disciple of the Purple Flame Sect in the Practice Battle Arena, before continuing, "Of course, if any of you are willing to switch allegiances and join the Bitao Martial Academy, we will welcome you with open arms! I cannot guarantee other things, but if you join the Bitao Martial Academy, your strength will definitely increase faster than it did in the Purple Flame Sect. Advancing from Heaven Level to Desolate Level, from Desolate Level to Vast Level, it’s certainly not a dream!"
Upon hearing Fang Bai’s words, some Purple Flame Sect disciples who had originally planned to leave halted in their tracks, their hearts beginning to burn with excitement.
Most Purple Flame Sect disciples had joined the sect initially because it had the most cultivation resources, the best cultivation environment, and the most profound Martial Arts Techniques in the Thousand Lakes Country.
Although the Bitao Martial Academy was only a fourth-rank sect, with Fang Bai, a Cosmic Level Expert, capable of both Alchemy and Artifact Refining, it was certain that under his leadership, the Bitao Martial Academy would swiftly rise to a third-rank sect without any issue.
Moreover, Fang Bai was young with limitless potential, and with him at its helm, the Bitao Martial Academy had the potential to achieve even more glorious accomplishments in the future.
"If there are any Purple Flame Sect disciples willing to join the Bitao Martial Academy, stand behind Elder Ge."
Seeing that many Purple Flame Sect disciples were tempted, Fang Bai quickly exchanged a glance with Ge Feng and loudly added, "You needn’t worry about reprisal from your former sect members. Once you join the Bitao Martial Academy, you become disciples of our academy, and I will protect you!"
Fang Bai’s words were like a Heart Stabilizing Pill, thoroughly reassuring the Purple Flame Sect disciples present who wished to join the Bitao Martial Academy.
"Senior Fang, I, Zhou Xiong, a disciple of the Purple Flame Sect’s Inner Court, wish to join the Bitao Martial Academy!"
From the group of Purple Flame Sect disciples gathered at the east side of the Stone Platform, a voice boomed like thunder, followed by a strapping big man stepping forward.
That big man possessed the strength of the mid-Desolate Level. Under the watchful eyes of disciples from various sects, he walked proudly up to Ge Feng with a dragon’s stride and a tiger’s bearing, first bowing deeply to Ge Feng, then respectfully taking his place behind him.
Although Elder Ge had the status of an elder, he was also just a mid-Desolate Level Martial Artist, of equal strength to Zhou Xiong, the Purple Flame Sect disciple who had just defected.
Under normal circumstances, Ge Feng and Zhou Xiong would be considered equals, but now Zhou Xiong was giving him a respectful bow, which Ge Feng found somewhat awkward to accept at first. However, after seeing Fang Bai by his side, Ge Feng composed himself and graciously accepted the gesture.
It is human nature to seek benefit and avoid harm.
Following Zhou Xiong’s lead, the majority of the Purple Flame Sect disciples present moved to stand behind Elder Ge, indicating their willingness to join the Bitao Martial Academy.
There were tens of thousands of Purple Flame Sect disciples, and although only about a thousand were present, they were the elite of the sect. Their addition significantly increased the overall strength of the Bitao Martial Academy and was sure to influence many more Purple Flame Sect disciples.
It was foreseeable that in the near future, the majority of the tens of thousands of Purple Flame Sect disciples would turn to the Bitao Martial Academy.
From that point on, the Purple Flame Sect crumbled and disintegrated, leading to its ultimate collapse.
