Chapter 1679: Taking Over The Broken Star Palace (1)
Shen Yanxiao was quite satisfied with the current situation.
The appearance of Xiu had completely suppressed the flames of the Broken Star Palace. Now, if this battle took place, the Broken Star Palace would undoubtedly be defeated.
But in the face of such a situation, Shen Yanxiao's heart gave birth to another idea.
It was true that there were a lot of morally corrupt scum in the Broken Star Palace, but there were also many innocent people like Su He who had been deceived into the Broken Star Palace.
Should she slaughter the Broken Star Palace in the end or take it for her own use?
This was the question.
Three years later, the Devil Race would return to the world. If Shen Yanxiao were to completely extinguish the Broken Star Palace now, it was estimated that in three years, the whole Radiance Continent would find no more than twenty second stage professionals, and this number was too few.
Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes and took a step forward. She said to the people of the Broken Star Palace, "The Broken Star Palace was indeed once the hall of human heroes, but some changes occurred; the Broken Star Palace has been transformed into a hell by your superiors. I believe that many of you initially joined the Broken Star Palace for the benefit of the Radiance Continent. Now I give you two paths: surrender and pay allegiance to me, and I will let you live; or, continue to resist, and I will kill every last one of you. Three years from now, the Devil Race will return to the surface. Do you want to prove your loyalty to humankind in three years' time, or would you rather go to hell with such a hypocritical organization as the Broken Star Palace? I'm giving you the right to choose."
"Little Xiao?" Tang Nazhi looked at Shen Yanxiao in surprise. He did not expect Shen Yanxiao to say such a thing in such a good situation.
They wanted to slaughter all the members of the Broken Star Palace from the beginning, but now Shen Yanxiao had changed her original intention.
"Little Xiao is right. She also knows that there are still many people who have been deceived by the Broken Star Palace. If we kill them all this time, then three years from now, our alliance will lose part of its strength. The Broken Star Palace has already been defeated. Our only true enemy is the Devil Race." Qi Xia had guessed Shen Yanxiao's thoughts. To tell the truth, he was surprised that she could change her mind in such a short time.
It could be said that the grudge between the Broken Star Palace and Shen Yanxiao was very deep.
The rebellion in the Vermillion Bird Clan, the interception in the Twilight City, and the attack of the four-nation alliance, all of these were the Broken Star Palace's strike on Shen Yanxiao.
If someone else were in her shoes, it was feared that they would have been very anxious to turn the Broken Star Palace to ashes. Who else could be like Shen Yanxiao? Even when the situation was already in her favor, she still remembered the life and death of the Radiance Continent.
Qi Xia vaguely felt that Shen Yanxiao had undergone some changes after she entered the Barren Land.
She no longer only valued personal interests; she had learned to take the overall situation into account.
The transition from a strong person to a real leader was a subtle one, and only a few people could make it well.
A strong person might be able to suppress all sides and make people afraid.
But a successful leader could use their charisma to make the whole race fight for them.
Shen Yanxiao was moving in the direction of a successful leader; she was no longer just an evildoer who charged around violently.
She was going to become a real commander!
Shen Yanxiao's words brought silence to the people of the Broken Star Palace, and the same shock permeated their hearts.
They thought they were already dead this time, but Shen Yanxiao left them a means to survive.
