Chapter 838 Reflect on Yourself

As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of dark, unorthodox law surged from Jiu Yuanzi's palm, which was pressed against the wall. Instantly, the entire Chaos Land trembled as if a devastating earthquake had occurred.

The divine tide surged wildly, engulfing the forbidden area and swallowing all the convicts and laborers who were working, regardless of whether they were carrying blue crystals or not.

They surged out through the tunnels, like countless hungry black snakes that had caught the scent of food, rushing toward the City of Sin from different paths.

If they hadn't been forcibly diverted by countless tunnels, they would have imagined rushing towards the City of Sin like a tsunami.

The tremors in the Chaos Land triggered panic among all living beings. They all rushed to the Blue Crystal Platforms in various places, and took out the Blue Crystals they had treasured to deal with this sudden and intense divine tidal breath, which was so strong that it was a once-in-a-century event.

Priests from various tribes began to offer prayers devoid of divine power, beseeching the local demon gods hidden deep within their hearts to bestow some good fortune and prevent their tribes from being wiped out in this disaster.

In the past, the divine tides would flood the entire Chaos Land, and everyone could only silently endure them until they receded on their own.

If you're lucky, the divine tide will recede quickly; if you're unlucky, it can last for a long time. No one knows how long the divine tide can last under such tremors.

But no one knew that this divine tide did not flow aimlessly throughout the Chaos Land, but instead rushed directly toward the City of Sin Cleansing.

The creatures in the City of Sin remained completely calm in the face of this once-in-a-century tremor, knowing it was a violent eruption of the divine tide, but they were not flustered at all.

This place has strong defenses; the well walls are coated with a thick layer of expensive blue crystal powder, and the cave ceiling is inlaid with hundreds of huge blue crystals.

They usually hide in the cave ceiling, but when the divine tide comes, they open their coverings to reveal themselves. Under the blue glow, they can effectively prevent the divine tide from attacking them.

In terms of resisting the divine tide, besides Chaos City, the strongest is Cleansing City, where the divine tide cannot exert its power at all.

But now, the wall that Jiu Yuanzi was touching was being corroded at a visible rate. Pieces of the wall were turning black and peeling off, and the rotten parts seemed to have come to life, spreading rapidly in all directions.

"What have you done? Let go!" the Lord of the City of Cleansing Sins roared in horror.

Jiu Yuanzi obediently withdrew her hand. "Okay."

But the decay did not stop; instead, it continued to spread in all directions. The solid walls that had stood firm for hundreds of years became as soft as dark chocolate melting at high temperatures, breaking off in large chunks and turning into a molten core that flowed down in all directions.

Jiu Yuanzi floated off the ground, dodging the black wall liquid flowing on the ground, and innocently replied, "I didn't touch the wall, it turned into this by itself. You said it was very sturdy, but it's obviously poor quality, this is a shoddy construction project."

"Lord of the city, help!" The heavily injured and immobile nobles were being submerged in the wall liquid, and they shouted for help with all their might.

The powerful and wealthy who were close to the wall but did not react have been swallowed by the wall liquid, while the creatures that could still breathe desperately tried to climb out, not wanting to be buried in the wall.

At this moment, a group of Sin-Washing City enforcers finally arrived, dragged up the nobles who had not yet been completely swallowed up, and carried them to other safe floors.

Jiu Yuanzi didn't chase after them. She wasn't interested in these useless people. Instead, she wanted to see the Chaos King, but going like that would be too monotonous and boring.

At this moment, the Lord of the City of Sin looked at the wall that was being continuously corroded. Instead of stepping forward to stop the corruption, he took a few steps back to avoid getting the wall liquid on himself.

The black substance on the wall sent shivers down his spine, a tremor running through his very soul. He felt an urge to draw closer to it, to immerse himself in that darkness, and become one of it.

But his consciousness was frantically issuing warnings, preventing his body from moving; even a tiny touch would be fatal. The intense negative energy was causing his body, which already fed on these things, immense pain; every cell in his body was filled with hunger, yearning to lick up these delicacies.

But he really didn't dare. The Chaos King was omnipresent, and if he were discovered, he and his entire clan would perish.

But he felt he was losing control.

"Get out! You can leave now, right now. I don't want to see you." The Lord of Cleansing City roared. He didn't want other beings to see him lose control, especially the Lord of Chaos City.

The Lord of Chaos City said coldly, "We can't leave. The Divine Tide has already gone outside."

"..." The Lord of Cleansing City fell silent. Even he was unwilling to wander around in the Divine Tide, let alone the fact that this Divine Tide was particularly large.

How to do!
What to do now?
His body trembled in the black smoke, and he used all his strength to remain still.

Just as he was about to lose his temper and explode, Jiu Yuanzi suddenly flew over and pressed down on the black, decaying things on the wall. They were like wriggling living things, and they all quickly flew into her hand.

Soon, all the black stuff disappeared, leaving only the molten, cement-like walls and deep, corroded pits. Although they hadn't been penetrated yet, if someone punched the center of the pit, they could break through the sturdy City of Sin.

The Lord of the City of Sin stared blankly at her, almost crying out to stop her from taking those black, evil things away, feeling as if food had been snatched from his mouth.

But I felt relieved that I hadn't lost control, yet also a little lost, feeling empty inside, as if I had lost everything.

The tremors in the Chaos Land ceased, the Divine Tide paused briefly, and then quickly retreated back to the forbidden area, even inexplicably carrying a sense of annoyance at being tricked.

Jiu Yuanzi also sensed the receding of the divine tide outside. After a moment of silence, she said, "The divine tide is really interesting. As long as you put in the effort, it will react immediately. It feels like something that provides a lot of emotional value. I'll try it again."

"Enough!" The Lord of the City of Cleansing Sins immediately stopped her sternly. He didn't want to go through what had just happened again. He could only resist temptation once, and if he did it again, he couldn't guarantee that something bad would happen.

Jiu Yuanzi glanced at him sideways, her face full of displeasure. "So, can you release them now?"

The Lord of the City of Cleansing Sins immediately said, "Release them. I have already sent the executioners to bring them here. But your companions killed all the criminals on the seventh floor, as well as many executioners. You think you can just leave like this?"

"Then you need to reflect on yourself. Why did my companions kill them instead of others?" Jiu Yuanzi said disdainfully. "Is it because you haven't been working hard enough? Did you show any authority when dealing with criminals? Why didn't you run away when you saw others being killed? Have you been properly trained for crisis situations?"

“You don’t take the fact that so many criminals are imprisoned in Sin City seriously. Not only is the defense lax, but you also can’t prevent criminals from escaping and committing violent crimes. If I weren’t a good person, this place would already be a river of blood.”

She said arrogantly, "Consider today a drill. Next time you encounter a similar incident, you'll have some experience to deal with it. I won't charge you for the training; it'll be free. I just think we click."

Lord Xizui was so angry that his eyes turned bloodshot and swelled to more than twice their normal size.

Jiu Yuanzi tilted her head slightly and smiled, "You seemed to really want to eat it just now. How about I give you a bite?"

"..." Two of the Lord of the City of Cleansing's eyes disappeared instantly, and the remaining two red eyes also faded, becoming much softer.

"Not interested, hmph, get lost." He snorted coldly, and the dark figure suddenly shrank into the ground, disappearing instantly and leaving.

Jiu Yuanzi smiled and looked up at the Lord of Chaos City. He decided to leave the guy alone and not give him any.
