Chapter 143: Offer to Turn New
When they came to the city wall, they were immediately able to see lots of cultivators gathering in the open area. They didn’t seem like they were hiding; they just came out in the open and stood there, looking at the city gate.
When they saw someone appear at the city wall, they all immediately looked towards Jiang Hao and Ming Yue.
Their expressions were enough to tell Jiang Hao that these cultivators, who mostly belonged to various sects and clans of the Eastern region, were totally here for him and Ming Yue.
He wasn’t even surprised seeing this many foolish people. This world was literally filled with idiots like these, who could be swayed so easily.
There were almost 2500 cultivators in total. He hadn’t even seen a single cultivator from those three sects; if he were to assume them to be 500 in number, then a total of 3000 cultivators were willing to kill them right now.
It was quite amusing to see that all of these people, enemies and supposed allies alike, had joined together for only a single purpose. Looks like the rewards were truly quite lucrative for them to do the bidding of those three sects.
Jiang Hao wondered if he could sway them with something similar. After all, the treasures in his possession were enough to incite even sects on friendly terms with each other to fight like bitter enemies of generations.
All he had to do was use the Heavenly Lotus Sutra, a Heaven-grade cultivation technique that was almost impossible to exist in a lower realm. It was not something anyone would want to miss.
Even those top sects who had connections to the upper realm didn’t possess it. This went to show that it was not merely a matter of availability but also a matter of strength to hold one.
Jiang Hao shook his head internally. There was no reason to do that. He wasn’t afraid of numbers. In fact, it was better this way. He just hoped that all of them moved together and entered the trap array so that none of them would be able to escape later without teleportation talismans.
He doubted these guys have any of those.
