Chapter 339 A Sense of Contrast! [Requesting Monthly Tickets...]

Late at night, the Wang family held a family meeting.

All the elders were present to discuss the matter, and their expressions were full of exhaustion.

In just one day, the Wang family was struck by disaster when a demon came knocking on their door.

The current topic is discussing which half of the people should be chosen to meet Bai Ye's KPIs.

The entire secret room was completely silent, and no one spoke to each other, because half of them were also going to be included in the list of those to be executed that Bai Ye had mentioned.

For a moment, the entire room fell into an eerie silence. Speaking at this moment would be tantamount to offending certain people.

"I don't think the family line should be wiped out." At this moment, an elder spoke up, not saying who should die, but that those people should live.

"Wang Teng, the son of the patriarch, has the potential to become an emperor. He is the key to whether our Wang family can rise again in the future. He absolutely cannot be on this list."

Upon hearing this, a resolute look appeared in everyone's eyes.

An elder said, "Wang Xian should not be on the list either. Elder Wang Xian reached the Sendai realm in just over three hundred years. His future achievements are limitless. I am also at the first level of Sendai. I am willing to die in his place."

"Gong Qing." The elder named Wang Xian stared at his friend, who had volunteered to die in his place, with moved eyes.

Next, through mutual recommendations, the list of Sendai-level candidates was quickly finalized, making it easy to handle the younger generation.

Those at the same level, whoever has higher talent and breaks through faster, are not included on the list.

Of course, personal connections and bribes also slightly influenced the outcome, and some impoverished branches of the Wang family were also included on the list.

After a long night of work, a thick list of tens of thousands of people was produced, all of whom were members of the Wang family.

Over the years, the Wang family has expanded and its members are now distributed throughout the Northern Plains.

"So this is it. This is the final list." The elder looked at the long list in his hand and sighed softly, a trace of sorrow flashing in his eyes.

In fact, he was on the list, and he did so voluntarily, just to make room for the stronger members of the Wang family.

Old fogies like him should be swept into the dustbin of history.

Inside the house, Bai Ye was feeling great, extremely great.

For the sake of cultivation and strength, the two of them worked very hard all night, constantly breaking through their limits.

Contrast? What is contrast?

The contrast between Yaochi and Yaoguang Saintess at this moment is striking.

The contrast between their previous haughty and unapproachable demeanor and their current attitude is striking.

The conditions for contrast were perfectly met, successfully satisfying Bai Ye.

In short, the two of them successfully made Bai Ye feel good.

The next day, when Bai Ye walked out of the room humming a little tune, the two women were still sitting cross-legged on the bed with calm expressions, calming down to digest what they had learned the night before.

Feeling the power within the room, which was countless times stronger than yesterday, Ji Ziyue was utterly speechless.

Upon seeing Bai Ye emerge, an elder stepped in front of him and said, "Senior, this is the list we discussed and finalized last night."

"Oh, let me see." Bai Ye took the list and browsed through it. The list contained tens of thousands of names, and when stacked together, it could no longer be called a booklet, but a whole book.

"Where's Wang Teng? I remember your Wang family had someone with the potential to become an emperor, Wang Teng, right?" Bai Ye flipped through the list but couldn't find him.

Upon hearing Bai Ye's question about Wang Teng, the clan elder nervously replied, "Wang Teng is not on the list."

"By the way, are you inside?" Bai Ye asked casually.

"That's right, old man, it's on the first page," the elder said sadly.

"Oh, you're pretty lucky then," Bai Ye said casually. "These next few are the ones who won't die."

"Huh?!?!" The elder's eyes widened in surprise, not expecting such an outcome.

What I initially thought was a death list has turned out to be a list of those who have been reborn.

"Yeah, the main point is to create a sense of contrast, a surprise, right?" Bai Ye said with a smile, tossing the list back to him.

"What a surprise!" Those who originally thought they were immortal were furious, never expecting Bai Ye to pull off such a reversal.

The people who were supposed to be dead came back to life, while the survivors became the dead. This caused everyone's emotions to take a 180-degree turn, like riding a roller coaster.

Even the desperate elders who voluntarily offered themselves as sacrifices and were ready to die found their moods improved.

Looking at the clan elders who were entering the death row as if they had lost their parents.

Even though these people who escaped death knew that laughing at this moment was too ruthless, they couldn't suppress the smiles on their lips and could only freeze with a face that was both crying and laughing.

"No, I'm not having it! I should have survived!"

"You treacherous scoundrel, I swear I will never forgive you!"

……

At that moment, some people couldn't hold back and wanted to fight Bai Ye, but the instant they opened their mouths, a flash of sword energy turned them into ashes.

"What kind of strength do you have to dare to spout nonsense in my house?" Bai Ye sheathed his bone sword, now regarding the entire Wang family as his own residence.

Looking at their tribesmen who had been cut in half, the complex emotions in the hearts of the others were hard to describe.

Bai Ye ignored them and said calmly, "Remember to carry it out. Don't leave a single one alive, especially that Wang Teng. What trash is he, daring to call himself an emperor?"

"Yes, I will do as you command," the elder sighed, his confidence unwavering.

If the list provided by the elders had been followed, all the survivors would have understood that they had been saved at the cost of their spouses, and would have united as one.

But now that Bai Ye has stirred things up, if the process of Bai Ye's selection is exposed, the entire Wang family will soon be divided, and all the survivors will realize that they were originally among those who were abandoned.

In this case, the survivors might feel Stockholm syndrome and be grateful to Bai Ye for giving them a life, and would become even more loyal to him.

"Behind what seems like playful banter lies a deep scheming mind," the Wang family elder thought to himself, feeling a chill run down his spine.

But in reality, Bai Ye was just playing around. He didn't care who was in power. As long as someone could serve him wholeheartedly, that was enough. If not, then get out.

"Senior, just now, the Holy Lords of the Ji Family, Yao Guang Holy Land, and Yao Chi Holy Land came to visit you, wishing to speak with you." An elder spoke as he watched Bai Ye's retreating figure.

"Them? What do they want with me! To hunt me down in person?" Bai Ye asked, then said nonchalantly, "When? I'll go check it out."

"The Moon-Viewing Tower in the Yan Kingdom is not far away. Please come there in three hours to discuss your desire to seek the secret of immortality from you," the elder repeated.

"Okay, I'll be there when the time comes."

Bai Ye waved to Ji Ziyue and asked, "Let's go. Those two are cultivating. Accompany me to stroll around the capital of Yan today. We've been chased for so long, it's been a long time since we've had a normal shopping trip."
