Chapter 1274: Rise of the Alien Race

arm and forcibly shoving her in front of Zeng Xiao."Let me go!" Tang Xiaorou struggled with all her might, but it was useless.And Zeng Xiao, sat on the sofa with a playful look on his face, watching...Beidu Center District, Martial Arts Association Hall.

Huixu sat in the study, his head tilted slightly upward, his face grim.

His countenance seemed even more aged.

Zheng Ze stood before the table, his head bowed, his face pale.

Neither of them spoke, and the study was very quiet.

"Teacher, we must make a decision as soon as possible... they won't give us any more time."

After a long silence, Zheng Ze spoke in a hoarse voice.

Huixu leaned back in her chair and sighed heavily.

Zheng Ze looked at Huai Xu's appearance, wanting to speak, but in the end, he closed his mouth again.

He had followed Huixu for so many years, knowing deep down that there was no room for sand in Huixu's eyes, let alone agreeing to this request.

However, reality is very cruel.

If Luo Huai refuses to agree to those guys' demands, then... the lives of all members within the Martial Arts Association will be in great danger.

This is definitely not a simple multiple-choice question. Choosing the wrong answer...comes at a very steep price.

But despite being called a multiple-choice question, there are no choices.

From any angle, Huixu could only agree to their demands, there was no other way.

"When will they be here" Huixu looked up at Zhengze and asked.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow they will come to the guild hall." Zheng Ze's lips were white and dry as he spoke, "If Master doesn't agree, they will unleash a massacre."

Huixu lowered her head, her wrinkled right hand gently tapping on the table.

Zheng Ze said nothing.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the study is incredibly oppressive, making it hard to breathe.

After several more minutes passed, Huixu looked up at Zhengze and said, “I’ve agreed to their requests, but… I will be leaving the Martial Arts Association. You will take over the Martial Arts Association.”

Zheng Ze's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Teacher, this..."

"I cannot serve them. That's my bottom line," Huixu said solemnly.

"Teacher, if you resign, they will definitely attack you… These monsters don't reason at all!" Zheng Ze broke out in a cold sweat and said urgently.

Over the past six months, Zheng Ze has not only heard but also personally witnessed too many examples.

Those monsters were extremely cruel and demanded absolute obedience!

Even a hint of defiance will be met with immediate death!

Zheng Ze knew very well that his teacher was very powerful.

But... the number of them is simply too many.

How many Saint List experts have died at the hands of these monsters during this time!

They are now making an example out of the strongest cultivators, executing them to intimidate the rest.

Zheng Ze didn't want his teacher to be one of them under any circumstances!

So, he had to find a way to change Huai Xu's decision.

"Teacher, let's hold on a little longer. Mr. Fang might be back soon…Let's just hold on a little longer." Zheng Ze said, his voice trembling slightly.

"Brother Fang…"

Huixu's eyes flickered slightly.

Fang Yu... has been missing for almost a year.

For a year, there was no way to contact Fang Yu.

And it was also during this year that major events occurred.

After the resurgence of spiritual energy, the martial arts world in the summer solstice has flourished.

Every day, monsters appear in various regions. The three rankings within the Heaven Peering Bureau always cause a stir whenever they are updated.

This is perhaps the best of times, a period of unprecedented splendor in history.

Many cultivators dream of the Immortal Dao opening, and one day ascending to immortality, leaving their names in history.

However, no one could have anticipated that an extreme and terrifying crisis was lurking in the shadows.

About three months after Fang Yu's disappearance, all regions began to appear with various alien races.

At first, these alien races that appeared before people were not strong, nor were they numerous. They also lacked intelligence.

At that time, many cultivators regarded these extraterrestrial beings as ordinary monsters, not considering them to be a great threat.

Therefore, cultivators in all regions didn't regard this group of alien races as a serious threat and had no intention of specifically dealing with them.

But after just a short month of development, the number of alien races suddenly increased, and there were major anomalies everywhere!

< Inland earthquakes, coastal tsunamis! >

The number of different ethnic groups and their populations in various regions are exploding!

At this time, the alien races that appeared began to develop intelligence.

They are highly intelligent and abnormally strong!

Some savage alien races, directly began their slaughter.

At this time, cultivators from all regions finally realized the arrival of the crisis.

However, it was too late to realize that now.

Most of the alien races have awakened fully, and their power is exceptionally great.

At this time, cultivators from all regions began to unite and work together to resist these alien races.

However, even after the spiritual energy revival, the strength of the martial arts world across the entire region had increased several times over, it was still no match for these deeply unfathomable extraterrestrial beings!

There are just too many of them.

Sometimes one tribe is extinguished, and a new, stronger tribe emerges.

Everlasting and inexhaustible.

Gradually, major regions began to fall, and all cultivators felt fear.

Because the enemy tribes were far too powerful, their methods of killing were extremely brutal.

Despair, utter despair!

The number of outsiders is increasing every day!

Over the course of nearly half a year, cultivators who rose up in rebellion across various regions... at least half have perished. The rest have lost their ability to resist and can only submit to the feet of the alien race, being treated like slaves.

As for the other, more timid cultivators, they directly pledged allegiance to various alien races, serving them.

In this situation, Beidu, as the region with the strongest martial arts foundation, has been holding on tenaciously.

Facing the invasion of foreign races, the martial arts world of Beidu united its forces, stubbornly resisting and barely maintaining the current situation.

However, in the face of near collapse elsewhere, Beidu's resistance seemed pitifully meager.

The last straw that broke the camel's back was the recent betrayal led by Qi Jia from Beidu.

When Qi Family took the lead, those other clans and sects, who were already extremely fearful, all rebelled and defected to the alien race.

The remaining top cultivators, under attack from all sides... suffered heavy casualties.

Then, when there's no other option, surrender one by one.

Either die or submit.

This is not really a choice, no one wants to die.

Thus, the martial arts world of Beidu... just crumbled.

After subjugating all the major factions, those alien creatures turned their attention to the Martial Arts Association, a force that had caused them significant losses.

Today, it is the second time the outsider has delivered a message.

Tomorrow, they will come directly to her door and speak with Huai Xu in person.

If you still refuse, the consequences will be dire.

The Liu family in Beidu from the previous day is a case in point, slaughtered to the last man, their blood dyeing the entire family crimson.

"Teacher, or perhaps you could escape…" Zheng Ze looked at Huai Xu, his face pale. "With your abilities, Teacher, if you wanted to run, these alien creatures might not be able to stop you."

"The battle is lost. Where can we run to" Huixu let out a long sigh, his expression filled with despair and indignation. "Now, the alien races are everywhere, occupying every region under heaven..."

"These outsiders are not all united. You could escape to the mountains and live in seclusion... and still save your life." Zheng Ze said.

Having pondered for a moment in silence, he stood up and slowly walked to the window, gazing out.

Since time immemorial, the skies above Beidu have been a perpetual gray, yet rain has never fallen.

Such weather only adds to the feeling of oppression and fear in one's heart.

In the past, these streets were bustling with activity, but now they are deserted.

After the awakening of a large number of races, both the mortal world and the martial arts world… fell into silence.

especially the secular world.

Even cultivators were treated like slaves, let alone ordinary people who had never practiced cultivation.

Before the alien race, mortals are not even as good as ants.

Those outsiders walk the streets, one out of place could kill countless mortals.

Similar things have happened countless times over the past six months.

"Teacher, Mr. Fang... will definitely come back," Zheng Ze said as he watched Huixu's retreating figure, "When he returns, we will surely be able to counterattack..."

Huixu looked out the window for a long time before turning to Zhengze and saying calmly, "Tomorrow, I will wait for them in the main hall."
