"Good boys. You all did well."
Yao Jun walked over to Little Thunder and gently stroked his head as he spoke. He also didn't forget to praise Sirius and Little Gray as well, gently stroking their heads as he spoke with a smile. While he was stroking their heads, the kneeling guards and cultivators looked at him like he was a monster.
The three Demonic beasts still had blood on their claws, Little Thunder's jaws were even still clamping down on the head of the old man, blood dripping out between its teeth. But this youth just walked over and started stroking them and praising them.
"Alright, it's time to go back now. You can take him with you."
Yao Jun gave the three Demonic beasts one last pat on the head before he summoned his Demon God's Gate out and called all three back into the gate. The corpse of the old man also disappeared into the gate. Little Thunder and the others could eat the body to slightly strengthen themselves as well as Yao Jun. The same happened when Yao Jun killed one of the two youths after he entered the town, this was just a different way of doing it. Of course, they wouldn't eat any of the old man's treasures, like his interspatial ring.
After he finished with the old man, Yao Jun turned around and walked back to where Guo Luo was. Standing there, he looked at all the kneeling people, whose backs were now completely covered in cold sweat.
"You guys, come over here."
Yao Jun pointed at a few of the kneeling people as he spoke. When his words fell into their ears, they automatically stood up and walked over to where Yao Jun stood, kneeling down on the ground again in front of him.
"Please...sir... please, you have to-"
One of the kneeling men started speaking with a trembling voice, too scared to even raise his head. Before he managed to finish his words, he was interrupted by Yao Jun.
"Quiet."
That single word drilled into the minds of everyone present, forcibly causing them to close their mouths.
"I have seen what you have done to this town and its people, I saw what you were doing mere minutes before I entered this place. Do you really think I will spare you?"
Yao Jun spoke coldly, his eyes emotionlessly looking at the men in front of him. All of the people he pointed out were people he had seen do atrocious things as he was heading towards the mansion. He was certain that there were more people among the other kneeling people that had done atrocious things, but he had not seen them do it, so there was nothing he could do about it.
If he did not know who had done what, the only other option he had was to kill everyone. This was clearly impossible, as he would be no different from those he was killing at that point, so he could only punish those who he knew were guilty.
"The rest of you, except for you, can leave, if I found out you have done the same as these people, I will come for you."
Yao Jun looked at the rest of the kneeling people as he spoke, his eyes cold and emotionless. The kneeling people felt like they had been pardoned by the god of death, quickly standing up and rushing to leave the mansion.
After the rest of the kneeling people left, the only ones left in the hall were Yao Jun, Guo Luo, the nine people he had pointed out, and the old man who had a decent amount of Mental Energy. The reason the old man had not left was obviously because Yao Jun had not allowed him to leave.
Yao Jun made a few swift chops with his sword, beheading five of the kneeling people. After beheading these five people, he quickly took off their interspatial rings before he handed his sword over to Guo Luo.

"You take care of the rest."
Yao Jun pointed at the four people he had left behind as he spoke. He wanted Guo Luo to get used to this as fast as possible, otherwise, there was no telling when something could happen to her because of a moment of needless mercy.
Guo Luo knew what Yao Jun was thinking, so she did not say anything, only giving a strong nod. She said that she would chase him even if he pushed her aside, so how could she falter at this point?
She took a deep breath before she stepped forward and raised the sword. With a quick downward slice, the first head was separated from its body. Another three quick cuts followed, and all that remained were nine headless bodies.
Guo Luo took another deep breath before she handed the sword back to Yao Jun. She once more surprised herself by how easy she found it to kill these people, but she did not dwell on it. This was how things were going to be from now on, finding it easier to kill them would only make it easier on herself.
"You did good. These things did not deserve to live."
Yao Jun took the sword and gently pat Guo Luo on the head, speaking in a soft and gentle voice in an attempt to comfort her. After he comforted her for a short while, he turned to the old man who was still kneeling.
"You. Lead us to the treasury."
Yao Jun's voice rang out again, drilling into the old man's consciousness, forcing him to obey. The old man stood up and started leading Yao Jun and Guo Luo deeper into the mansion. After walking up three flights of stairs, they found themselves in front of a thick metal door covered with a layer of gold.
The door was not locked, allowing them to easily enter the treasury. The treasury was just a large room with shelves lining up in the entire room. Each shelf was stacked with boxes marked with different plaques, each one engraved with whatever was inside the box.
Yao Jun did not waste any time. He gave Guo Luo a three interspatial rings and allowed her to fill them with whatever she needed, while he himself took two interspatial rings. After spending nearly an hour going through the entire treasury, Yao Jun and Guo Luo had taken almost half the items from inside the treasury.
Most of the items they grabbed were Spirit Stones of different grades, as well as some herbs and orbs. Yao Jun took all the herbs, quickly planting them inside his Demon God's Gate. The two of them also found some clothes that they could wear, Yao Jun choosing a blue silk robe decorated with golden lines in the image of a roaring tiger, and Guo Luo choosing a tight-fitting, light yellow qipao.
They did not take any more items from the treasury, leaving them for the townspeople to take. Yao Jun had given them the chance to turn their lives around and live properly, whether or not they would do that, was up to them.
After leaving the treasury, Yao Jun had the old man follow them back to the deserted main hall. Once they reached the hall again, Yao Jun brought out his sword and handed it to Guo Luo, before pointing at the old man.
"I want you to fight him. You can kill now, but you still need to learn how to fight properly, how to react properly while stressed."
After he finished speaking, Yao Jun released the old man from his control and looked at him coldly.
"If you try to run, I will kill you. If you kill her, I will kill you."
