Chapter 3010: For Lei Hao's Sake, I Won't Kill You

Lei Hao made his final effort, trying his best to persuade his clansmen.

In his view, these people really didn't need to throw their lives away for Lei Xuan. As for talk of avenging their clansman, it was mostly emotion stirred up by others.

Most beasts weren't very flexible in their thinking. They were straightforward and easily incited.

This kind of thing had happened many times in beast history.

It was precisely because of this that the beast race was suited to the venomous insect raising model. If someone died, they died. No one would lead a group to seek revenge afterwards.

But this time was different.

Mainly for two reasons. First, Lin Moyu had killed a direct descendant of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers.

Although Lei Xuan's status wasn't as high as Lei Hao's and he wasn't an heir, he was undoubtedly a direct descendant.

Secondly, the place where the killing occurred was wrong - it was in the Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers' ancestral grounds.

The ancestral grounds held a special status for many Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan members.

It wasn't that killing wasn't allowed in the ancestral grounds, but a direct descendant dying in the ancestral grounds was something that rarely happened in the past.

Moreover, too many people had witnessed Lin Moyu killing him.

If this matter hadn't spread and no one knew about it, then it would have been fine.

But now that it had spread, if they didn't seek justice for their own people, how would others view the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan?

The whole matter, after a series of changes and incitement, had escalated to an issue of racial face.

Although Lei Hao had persuaded away a quarter of the clan members, that was already because his status was high enough.

The fifteen to sixteen hundred Dao Venerables before him remained unmoved, not one retreating.

Lin Moyu had already seen through this and said to Lei Hao, "Brother Lei, step back. They won't leave. Everyone has their own fate. Perhaps this is their tribulation."

Lei Hao also understood and sighed helplessly, "Alright."

He silently retreated, joining the few hundred Dao Venerables he had persuaded to withdraw to a distance.

These Dao Venerables willing to listen to his persuasion were basically all from his faction. If he came to power in the future, these people would form his core group.

As for others, he really couldn't manage them anymore.

Lin Moyu looked at the more than thousand Dao Venerables brimming with killing intent, "Everyone, I've had some acquaintance with your clan leader. For his sake, I don't want to kill you."

"So, I hope you all don't make a mistake."

Hearing that Lin Moyu had some acquaintance with their clan leader, some of these Dao Venerables showed hesitation.

At this moment, someone shouted loudly, "Don't listen to his nonsense! How could the clan leader know a second-level Dao Venerable human? He killed our direct descendant in our ancestral grounds, making our entire clan lose face. Today we must kill him to avenge our clansman."

"This is our ancestral grounds! Killing our direct descendant in our ancestral grounds is like defecating on our heads!"

"We are a royal clan, how can we tolerate this?"

"Even if the clan leader were here, he would surely approve of our actions."

These words were extremely inflammatory, immediately arousing the anger of the Dao Venerables.

The spectators around also chimed in, "That's right, a direct descendant killed in their own ancestral grounds, they've completely lost face."

"Kill him quickly, the clan's face must be preserved!"

"Over a thousand Dao Venerables against one person, what are you afraid of?"

"Even if he has some puppets, can they withstand this?"

"What ten-thousand-meter forbidden zone? This is simply insulting. This is the ancestral grounds, not his human territory."

Amidst the words of the spectators, the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger Dao Venerables became increasingly agitated.

Their auras rose, Dao Venerable auras intertwining, drawing countless lightning bolts, forming a terrifying pressure sweeping towards Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu regarded the pressure as nothing. He sighed lightly, certain that the beasts' brains didn't work very well.

They relied too much on bloodlines. Advancing by bloodline, they neglected the power of the dao heart.

If this were among humans, not many would follow such incitement.

Because human Dao Venerables tempered their dao hearts step by step, each Dao Venerable had their own thoughts and judgments.

It would be extremely difficult to incite them.

Lin Moyu looked at the large group of Dao Venerables before him, thinking back to when facing a single Dao Venerable felt like facing heaven's might.

But now, facing these fifteen to sixteen hundred Dao Venerables, he could regard them as nothing.

Those Dao Venerables were brimming with killing intent, looking like they were about to attack.

On the other side, Lei Hao's anxiety was evident.

He was truly anxious, not wanting to see his clansmen die here.

But he also truly had no way, unable to persuade them at all.

Lin Moyu saw Lei Hao's expression and sighed lightly, "Fine!"

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and the Number One legion commander flew over, raising his battle blade.

Just when everyone thought the attack was about to begin, space underwent a large-scale distortion.

Terrifying dragon riders appeared between heaven and earth. They bathed in lightning, wearing blood-red armor, tall and majestic.

Each dragon rider emitted the aura of a third-level Dao Venerable.

The Bloody White Bone Dao intertwined on their bodies, converging into a sea.

What was truly terrifying wasn't the dragon riders' aura or combat power, but their number.

Over a hundred thousand dragon riders appeared in the world, a full hundred thousand third-level Dao Venerable dragon riders, forming battle formations, converging their dao into a sea, making heaven and earth solemn.

The entire world fell silent. The previous shouts completely died down at this moment.

Except for the sound of thunder, the whole world quieted down, without a trace of tenderness.

A hundred thousand third-level Dao Venerable dragon riders suppressed the entire scene, making everyone unable to breathe.

Lin Moyu's gaze was solemn, "Lei Hao is my brother. I'm giving him face, so I won't kill you."

"Ten-thousand-meter forbidden zone. Those who enter will die!"

As his words fell, the hundred thousand dragon riders formed into units of a thousand, composing a hundred battle formations, completely enveloping this ten-thousand-meter area.

There wasn't a sound in their movement, like the netherworld passing through. In the blink of an eye, they completed the defense.

It was precisely this behavior that made everyone draw in a cold breath.

What kind of army is most terrifying? It's the kind of army before them.

All orders could be completed instantly, with absolute obedience.

Such commands could even be completed with just a thought.

Everyone had a thought in their hearts - there was no way to fight.

First, in terms of numbers, they were completely overwhelmed. Outnumbered by dozens of times, they had no power to fight back.

Looking at the actions of these dragon riders, all the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger Dao Venerables felt they were facing a terrifying army.

An army could exert combat power several times its own number. With the same number of people, they would have no resistance against a well-trained army.

Not to mention, the number of this army now exceeded theirs by dozens of times.

Without even thinking, if they fought, it would surely be a one-sided crushing defeat.

Lin Moyu looked at the expressions of these Dao Venerables and knew there would be no fight.

Originally, he wouldn't have done this. He would have waited for these Dao Venerables to attack, then released the Dragon Rider Legion to directly kill them and be done with it.

But seeing how difficult it was for Lei Hao, Lin Moyu still didn't deliver the killing blow, giving them a way out.

In this situation, only a fool would come to die.

Lei Hao in the distance cast a grateful look. He wasn't stupid and knew why Lin Moyu did this.

Suddenly, a purple spear rose into the sky. The spear bathed in divine thunder, one becoming ten, ten becoming a thousand, a thousand becoming ten thousand.

Countless purple spears charged towards the Dragon Rider Legion with a boom.
