Chapter 342 The Evil Plot of the Wu Ancestor.
The city was in a state of emergency, with every inhabitant in panic.
The rumor about the destruction of the Old Ancestor of the Wu Clan had spread throughout the city like wildfire.
In addition, all the overbearing clans that treated others worse than human beings had all been captured.
Previously, the inner city was filled with an air of supremacy, and those who lived in the outer city were filled with envy and joy for those living there.
But now, they couldn\'t be more glad that they were not living in the inner city.
The inner city had turned into a dead zone where merely flaunting your wealth might be considered taboo.
All the powerful clans in the inner city were dealt with so seriously that many pitied them.
Thus, those living in the lower rungs of the city couldn\'t be more curious about the man who could cause such devastation in the span of three days.
And the perpetrator of all this sat on his throne, casually reading the ancient scroll in his hand.
Reading the content inside the ancient scroll, the calm expression on Su Yen\'s face changed gradually.
"How could they do this?" he muttered in annoyance.
Previously, he did not have the intention of killing those savage, evil men.
But now, he changed his mind.
How could they not have regard for the lives of their fellow humans?
"Bring Wu Bin here right now," he commanded in a cold voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty…" a male voice responded outside the hall in urgency.
Each of the guards could still remember how easily Su Yen had defeated all the Wu ancestors and elders without raising a single finger.
Thus, the guards saw this seemingly extremely young man as a ruthless devil that must not be offended.
A few minutes later, Wu Bin was brought in front of Su Yen.
The previous proud and domineering city lord was gone and was now replaced with a haggard woman.
She looked at the young man on the throne without a change in her expression.
As for thoughts of revenge or anger, they never appeared in her heart.
When the strength between your enemy and you is too massive, like the vastness of the sea, you lose thoughts of revenge and every grievance in your heart.
What could they do if they harbored thoughts of revenge when their opponent was way beyond their mortal understanding?
The feeling each one had standing before Su Yen was like standing before a god. Each of their lives and deaths could be decided on a whim.
Su Yen looked at her and asked in a voice that needed an immediate response.
"Is the record true?" He threw the ancient scroll at her.
With a lifeless expression, Wu Bin looked at the ancient scroll, and a deep sigh escaped from her mouth.
"Yes…" she responded slowly.
Receiving the affirmation from her, Su Yen was so furious that he wished to kill this woman but controlled the anger in his heart.
Who would have expected the Wu Clan was keeping such a huge secret?
At the heart of the city was a tunnel that led outside the Blue Crystal City, but what lay there was something beyond human comprehension.
It was a space beast: the Space Eating Spider.
It was a terrifying beast that lived in the void. The endless void was their domain, and with horrifying space webs, they could capture any prey that existed in the void.
Their space-tearing webs could pass through spatial storms and space gates to locate food.
With the Blue Crystal City floating in the void, it was bound to capture the attention of a Space Eating Spider.
However, instead of finding a way to kill the Space Eating Spider, the upper echelon of the city did not want to die and came up with a horrifying idea.
Sacrifice.
They sacrificed humans to the Space Eating Spider.
Every hundred to thousand people were sacrificed to the beast.
After years of doing these evil deeds, they got on the better side of the Space Eating Spider.
It was then the Wu Ancestor came to an agreement with the beast.
As a space beast that roamed in the void for thousands of years, it had developed consciousness and intelligence.
Thus, it was not different from an adult human in terms of wisdom and reason.
In the Blue Crystal City, there were many spatial transmission arrays that were not working.
The Wu ancestor came to an agreement with the Space Eating Spider to fix the spatial transmission arrays.
His plan was to turn the arrays into bait to lure those unfortunate enough to enter the array and bring them to Blue Crystal City.
With nothing to lose, the spider agreed and fixed the arrays, and from then, humans had been brought into Blue Crystal City.
The array acted randomly, and those unlucky enough to step into the array would find themselves in the city, turned into slaves, and at the end of their lives, used as sacrifices for the Space Eating Spider.
Hundreds of thousands of people had fallen victim, losing their families and loved ones due to the plot of the Wu Ancestor.
Moreover, Su Yen had fallen victim to such a plot, and if not for his terrifying bloodline power, he would have been turned into a plaything of a spoiled brat.
"You all deserve to die…" Su Yen said in a grave voice.
A terrifying pressure erupted from his body and fell on Wu Bin, who screamed in pain.
Crack!
She heard the sound of her bones shattering slowly, grinding to pieces.
Blood seeped from the corners of her eyes, turning them bloody red.
Every nerve in her body was in pain; she wished to die, but death wouldn\'t come.
Previously, she thought nothing could ever move her heart, but now, she realized how wrong she was.
The pain coming from the depths of her soul was something she had never felt in her life. Stay updated through empire
Just as she thought the pain would continue, it disappeared, and she fell to the ground in her pool of blood.
She puked continuously, and what came out were her melted organs.
"Take me to the beast," Su Yen commanded.
