Chapter 69: Settlement After the War

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Demille’s soul was directly devoured by Lin Chen.

[Soul Cultivation +50,000!]

It actually added 50,000 soul cultivation experience points!

This was a pleasant surprise.

If not for Lin Chen’s current level being insufficient and his soul experience being suppressed by half, it would probably be 100,000 experience points!

However, Lin Chen did not regret it.

He wouldn’t keep Demille’s soul.

None of the De Family could live!

Next, Lin Chen cleaned up the battlefield and personally killed Demiga, who was severely injured by Kong Yan.

Moreover, he also devoured Demiga’s soul.

[Soul Cultivation +40,000!]

In addition, killing these two people had also raised Lin Chen to Level 158!

He was only two levels away from Level 160.

However, he was still far from Level 180.

Still, Lin Chen had a place to level up.

After dealing for the matter here, he would move and clear the surrounding Boss nests.

Coupled with the experience in the Trial Tower, it was not difficult to reach the First Rank.

At that time, Lin Chen’s soul cultivation would be much smoother.

Next, Lin Chen cleaned up the spoils of war…

This was the greatest gain!

Storage rings were found on Demille, Demiga, and their sons.

They had all been killed.

Therefore, he could directly take out the things in the storage rings.

The resources were as follows:

Ten million ordinary soul crystals.

Three million intermediate soul crystals.

Six million high-grade soul crystals.

800,000 top-grade soul crystals.

90,000 dazzling soul crystals!

These should be all the assets of the De Clan.

To be honest, these things were not as much as Lin Chen’s.

In addition, Lin Chen also discovered a total of 30 million gold coins.

There were also many equipment… However, the quality of these equipment was not good. Lin Chen asked Zhang Chunlin to put them away and planned to sell them to Winter.

Next, it was naturally time to reward people based on their contributions.

First of all, everyone who participated in resisting the De Family received least 1,000 ordinary soul crystals and 1,000 gold coins.

Then, there would be other rewards for those who worked hard.

Lin Chen spent a total of 300,000 soul crystals and 500,000 gold coins to reward everyone.

Of course, those who wanted to follow Liu Hai and the others naturally did not receive any rewards.

On the contrary, it was time to judge them.

However, at this moment, Lin Chen did not appear. He only said coldly, “I’ve said that if you want to stay, you have to be united. If you can’t do it, you can leave. However, this doesn’t mean that I can tolerate you surrendering to the enemy at the last minute and helping outsiders deal with Sky Moon City! Today, Liu Hai, Wang Shangfang, Liu Yue, and the others will be handed over to the Vice City Lord to judge!”

Lin Chen once again handed the matter of playing the bad cop to Zhang Chunlin.

However, Zhang Chunlin did not have any resistance. On the contrary, he was very excited. He said coldly, “Liu Hai, Wang Shangfang! Do you think I don’t know what you’ve done? In the past two days, you first secretly contacted Dela, then went around lobbying for people to surrender with you… Since you’ve all decided to be outsiders, our Sky Moon City naturally won’t tolerate you!”

“Then let us go…”

Liu Hai, who had just had his mouth unsealed, looked at the corpses of the De Clan on the ground. In addition, Lin Chen could actually defeat Demille, so he was naturally shocked and received a huge impact. He was already in despair.

There was nothing left to live for.

However, Zhang Chunlin’s words ignited a trace of desire to survive…

“Let me go, Zhang Chunlin… We’re classmates!” Wang Shangfang also begged.

“Classmates?”

Zhang Chunlin sneered. “When you were slandering me and the City Lord everywhere, did you think that we were classmates? Also, when you surrendered to Dela and you wanted to instigate the residents of Sky Moon City for him, did you think that we were classmates? And now, you’re telling me that we’re classmates? Hmph! It’s precisely because we’re classmates that you’re even more detestable! Now, I announce the outcome of the punishment of all the traitors today!”

Everyone looked at Zhang Chunlin.

They wondered how he would deal with these traitors.

Zhang Chunlin looked at everyone and waited for three seconds before continuing in a clear voice, “From today onwards, anyone who is unwilling to stay in Sky Moon City can leave on their own. However, if anyone still stays and betrays Sky Moon City, then all of them… will be used to feed the Green Python Bosses outside the city!”

BOOM!

This decision caused a huge commotion in the crowd.

Liu Hai and Wang Shangfang were dumbfounded.

The traitors’ heads were also buzzing.

On the other hand, the other residents were discussing fervently…

“You’re feeding them to a monster?”

Isn’t this too much?!

“It’s not too much! Do you know how they will treat us if we lose today?”

“That’s right, we support the Vice City Lord!”

In fact, the crowd’s thoughts had not completely changed.

There were actually people who felt that Zhang Chunlin’s method of dealing with them was too cruel. It could even be described as excessive…

However, even Liu Quan said, “Let me advise everyone. This is no longer the peaceful era where the countries of the Blue Planet dominate. In this world, if you don’t have the strength, you have no right to talk about human rights! Therefore, if anyone still feels that the punishment is too much, I advise you to leave Sky Moon City now.”

Liu Quan was one of the ten elders of the Dragon Kingdom.

Moreover, he was the controller of the military!

And now, even he stood up and spoke like this.

Who would dare to object?

“Everyone, don’t worry. As long as you are loyal to Sky Moon City and the City Lord, the City Lord will not treat you badly in the future… After defeating the De Family this time, the City Lord is very satisfied with everyone’s performance. Therefore, he will reward you with many things!”

At this moment, Zhang Chunlin came out to give everyone a sweet promise.

However, those traitors did not receive such good treatment.

“They would rather be dogs for the De Family and even offer up their own sisters. Such scum… really doesn’t deserve any sympathy from you! I once told Liu Hai and Wang Shangfang that if they went to the De Family, they could only be slaves for the De Family. If they stayed in Sky Moon City, they would at least still be human!”

Jiang Tingting also spoke.

This time, everyone discussed non-stop.

“What? They surrendered to the De Family to be their slaves?”

“I can’t tolerate them anymore then. I originally thought that they might be excusable, but now… they didn’t want to be proper people and act normally. In the end, they choose to kneel and suck up to outsiders?”

“Let’s just kill them. I really feel disgusted just by looking at these people!”

In fact, all the people of the Dragon Kingdom had a strong sense of unity.

After Jiang Tingting stood up and said those words, many people who thought that Zhang Chunlin had dealt with them too excessively changed their words.

Many people even threw stones at the traitors.

In an instant, the traitors’ heads were bleeding.

“Stop throwing at them. It won’t look good when the time comes. What if the Green Python Boss doesn’t like them?”

Zhang Chunlin stopped everyone.

Then, he immediately ordered, “Everyone, help clean up the corpses. Pull them all to the Green Python Pond to feed the Green Pythons!”

The battlefield was quickly cleaned up by more than a hundred thousand people.

Zhang Chunlin also led the team out of the city and towards the Green Python Pond.

In addition, those that were supposed to mine continued to mine.

At the same time, Liu Mengyao brought Kong Yan and Kong Lin to Sky Moon City.

She was a little worried and talked to Kong Yan for a long time before Kong Yan reluctantly agreed to let her come and take a look.

However, she did not expect the battle to end so quickly.

Liu Mengyao was very happy to see Lin Chen uninjured.

She was so happy that he jumped up.

However, before she could speak to Lin Chen, a few more airships came from the sky.

“Congratulations to City Lord Lin for winning the Sky Moon City’s defense battle… However, isn’t it a little too much for City Lord Lin to exterminate everyone and not leave a single person in the entire De Family? How do you expect me to answer to the parliament and the king?”

Gold Spear’s voice sounded in the sky above Sky Moon City.

“Is the provincial lord here to denounce me?” Lin Chen asked. “In that case, why didn’t the provincial lord stand up when the De Family invaded my Sky Moon City?”

“Haha… City Lord Lin, you’ve misunderstood! Gold Spear greets the two seniors of the Holy Maiden Tribe!”

Gold Spear left the airship.

Lin Chen could see that there were people from the seven families behind him.

The moment he came out, he saw Kong Yan and Kong Lin. His previous attitude instantly changed.

Gold Spear brought his men down from the airship and arrived in front of Lin Chen.

“Greetings, Provincial Lord.”

Lin Chen brought Liu Mengyao to greet him.

“City Lord Lin can be said to be a young hero!”

Gold Spear laughed and explained, “In fact, I was just joking with you just now… I did know about the battle between De Castle and Sky Moon City in advance. However, that was because of the rules. De Castle informed me in advance and did not use any despicable methods during the battle. Then, this battle was a legitimate battle between factions! The kingdom acknowledges such a legal war, including the outcome.”

“Then what does the provincial lord mean by coming here?” Lin Chen was puzzled.

Gold Spear smiled and said, “Since the De Family has fallen, De Castle and all its fiefdoms, as well as many industries, naturally need someone to take over. And according to the rules, their industries should actually be inherited by Sky Moon City, with the kingdom taking another portion… City Lord Lin, shouldn’t we enter the City Lord’s Mansion to have a good talk?”

“Please come in!

II

Hearing this, Lin Chen naturally had no objections.

Gold Spear recognized the result of the war.

Now was the time to divide the benefits.

But how were they going to divide things?

After all, what was left of De Castle should be an empty shell.

Gold Spear sat on the main seat of the City Lord Manor, but this time, Lin Chen sat beside him. With such a seating arrangement, anyone could tell that Gold Spear seemed to be trying to get closer to Lin Chen.

It could even be said that Lin Chen, who had just defeated De Castle, did not cause Gold Spear and the faction behind him to be afraid. Not only that, he was also on the verge of becoming popular.

“The De Family’s fiefdom is a total of 30,000 hectares. City Lord Lin shouldn’t need land because… my thoughts are that City Lord Lin might as well hand over all the territory of the De Clan to the empire this time! Of course, Sky Moon City can waive taxes for half a year and no longer have to pay tribute to the empire during this time. City Lord Lin, do you think this arrangement is acceptable?”

Gold Spear was quite direct.

He wanted to take back all the fiefs of the De Clan.

And the benefit that Sky Moon City received was that they did not have to pay tribute for half a year.

In total, he could save 30 million soul crystals!

This was not a small sum!

Even if he bought land, he could buy 10,000 acres.

It could be said that Gold Spear’s suggestion was very reasonable.

“Lin Chen has no objections!” Lin Chen naturally agreed.

However, after Lin Chen agreed, the expressions of the other seven families changed drastically.

Their faces even darkened.

“The fiefs were exchanged for by our ancestors with illustrious battle merits back then. Can the Imperial Court take it all back with a word now? Today, the De Family had such an outcome. Perhaps one day, it will be our seven families’ turn?”

At this moment, a patriarch stood up with a bad expression.

After saying that, he left!
