Chapter 489: Tang Family Surrenders

Zhao Mu ignored Gong Bailian's cute behavior and looked around the Heaven-Swallowing Furnace carefully, thinking about how to deal with it.

The Taotie inheritance is extremely evil. If it spreads out, it is unknown how many people will be killed.

But after all, it is a high-level inheritance. If it is destroyed like this, it is really a pity.

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Mu finally decided to take the Heaven-Swallowing Furnace back to the Demon Sect and give it to Iron Man Andre to expand the inheritance database.

Any inheritance has its merits. If you can remove its dross and keep its essence, it can still be used.

At this moment, several figures stumbled over.

It was Tang Zhen, Tang Yaqing, and Tang Lunhai, three senior members of the Tang family.

The moment they saw the ancestor defeated, the three of them were completely scared, knowing that the Tang family's ten thousand years of foundation collapsed today and was completely finished.

It's not that they don't want to escape, it's just that the city defense formation has completely blocked Lanqing City. Now even a fly can't fly out, and they are really desperate.

So the three of them discussed and decided to come to Zhao Mu to surrender in exchange for a glimmer of hope.

"Master Zhao, we have long disliked that old thing Tang Tiangao. Who would like to let their lives be in the hands of others? It's really that the old thief is too strong. We are powerless to resist. Now Master Zhao will eliminate the old thief for us. You are our reborn parents!"

Tang Zhen cried with snot and tears.

The beautiful Tang Yaqing also cried with tears in her eyes, and kept saying nice things.

Tang Lunhai winked and seemed to want to squeeze out some tears, but he really didn't have the acting skills, so he could only kneel on the ground with his head down and said nothing.

Zhao Mu frowned slightly and said, "Let me ask you, besides Tang Tiangao, has anyone else in the Tang family practiced the Taotie inheritance?"

"Absolutely not! That old thief Tang Tiangao regards the Taotie inheritance as more important than his life. Before today, I didn't even know what evil skills that old thief practiced. Our Tang family mainly practices the legitimate immortal cultivation methods, and studies the art of hidden weapons, puppet machines, and poisonous poisons. If Sect Master Zhao doesn't mind, I am willing to lead the Tang family to surrender to the Shengyuan Demon Sect, and from now on, under your wise leadership, I will turn over a new leaf and become a new person!"

Tang Zhi was really anxious. He knew very well that if the Tang family wanted to survive this disaster, they could only join the Demon Sect and surrender to Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu may not kill the Tang family, but as long as the news of Tang Tiangao's cultivation of the evil inheritance spreads, the Tang family will immediately become the public enemy of the cultivation world. At that time, the Tang family will become the target of public criticism, and destruction is a matter of time.

Zhao Mu's immortal eyes moved, and he basically confirmed that what Tang Zhen said was true.

This is also in line with Tang Tiangao's character. A cautious person like him must regard the inheritance of Taotie as extremely important. How could he cultivate competitors for himself?

The Tang family must have done a lot of bad things, but the culprit is still Tang Tiangao alone. Strictly speaking, the Tang family is also a victim.

It is not impossible to bring the Tang family under the command of the Demon Sect.

But Tang Zhen's words still lack some weight.

Zhao Mu cast his eyes not far away.

Tang Zhi is there.

As the strongest and most experienced person in the Tang family, Tang Zhi's words can represent the overall will of the Tang family.

Tang Zhen also saw Tang Zhi, and without saying anything, he rushed over and hugged Tang Zhi's thigh: "Uncle, the Tang family cannot fall!"

Tang Zhi naturally understood what Tang Zhen meant. He was just asking him to make the decision and represent the Tang family to join the Shengyuan Demon Sect.

"Don't cry, I already understand your thoughts. If the ancestor really passed away, the Tang family would need to find a backer. Shengyuan Demon Sect is indeed the most suitable choice at the moment. Don't worry, although Zhao Mu and I have personal grievances, I will not sit idly by when the family is in the limelight."

Hearing Tang Zhi's words, Tang Zhen immediately felt relieved and let go of his hand.

After a while, Tang Zhi came to Zhao Mu.

"Master Zhao, can we fight? If you win, the Tang family will obey your orders from now on, including me."

"If you want to fight, then let's fight."

Zhao Mu had an indifferent attitude. How could he not see that this fight was nothing more than Tang Zhi trying to find a way out for himself. There is still a difference between surrendering after defeat and surrendering without fighting.

A murderous intention suddenly rose.

The two did not move, but their sword intent had already broken through the sky.

The wind in Lanqing City seemed to have become sharper.

Crack.

Cracks appeared in Tang Zhi's sword intent.

His pupils trembled, and then he restrained his voice and bowed to Zhao Mu: "I lost."

The people around looked at each other, completely confused about what had just happened.

It's not that the fight hasn't started yet, why did Tang Zhi admit defeat?

Is it that Tang Zhi's challenge to Zhao Mu is just an excuse, and he really just wants to find a suitable excuse for the Tang family to submit to the Shengyuan Demon Sect?

But just when everyone thought so, Tang Zhi suddenly spurted blood, and his body burst into sword scars so deep that the bones could be seen. The next second, he fell straight down, and blood gushed out like a spring.

"Integrating the infinite law into the sword intent has a pretty good effect."

Zhao Mu nodded with satisfaction and turned to enter the city lord's mansion.

Tang Zhi, Tang Yaqing, and Tang Lunhai rushed to Tang Zhi.

"Uncle, you can't die!"

The Tang family now has only this one Tianren realm strongman left. If Tang Zhi died, even if the Tang family could still join the Shengyuan Demon Sect, the level of attention they received would definitely be far less than the situation where there was a Tianren sitting in charge.

Tang Zhen and the other two were so anxious that their eyes turned red.

"It's okay, Master Zhao didn't kill him."

Tang Zhi slowly opened his eyes while lying in a pool of blood, but his eyes were as calm as ever.

After this battle, he finally understood the gap between himself and Zhao Mu.

This is the real human genius!

If the human race can still usher in new glory, it must be under the leadership of Zhao Mu!

A few days later.

Zhao Mu had returned to Shengyuan Demon Sect with the Heaven-Swallowing Furnace. At the same time, the news that Tang Tiangao, the ancestor of the Tang family, was defeated and captured also spread throughout the Xianwu Continent.

However, this matter did not cause widespread discussion.

Except for a few old antiques, most practitioners knew very little about the ancestor of the Tang family, and they didn't even know what his specific cultivation level was.

On the contrary, after hearing the news that Tang Zhi joined Shengyuan Demon Sect, the Sword God Qu Liu came to the Demon Sect in person.

There are not many strong people with top sword talents among the human race. Qu Liu knew that Tang Zhi was definitely one of them.

But when he saw Tang Zhi wrapped in bandages and completely wounded by the sword intent, he was still very surprised.

When he learned that this was done by Zhao Mu, Sword God Qu Liu was even more surprised.

The last time he saw Zhao Mu was in the dangerous land, and it hasn't been long since then.

How come this kid's strength has grown so much again.

Such a domineering and sharp sword intent, although it is permeated with the power of the law, is also shocking enough.

At his growth rate, I'm afraid that in a few years, his title of Sword God will change hands.
