Su Heng tilted his head and engaged in a staring contest with Li Hongxiu.
Although Li Hongxiu said nothing, he had an epiphany.
Holding up the last piece of at left on the plate in front of him, he sniffed it gently, which further confird his earlier speculation.
"Is this Henos!?"
Su Heng's first thought was actually that it tasted pretty good.
Then the second thought, was that it was such a waste.
With Henos's strength being quite formidable, coupled with that special talent that could shield one's perception, reversing the situation in such a war might not be possible, but self-preservation was certainly more than enough. After escaping from Su Heng's den of dragons and tigers, only to end up with such a fate upon returning ho, there must have been so twists and turns.
Li Hongxiu seed to perceive Su Heng's thoughts and said imdiately, "It's said that he was betrayed by a close one and ambushed, leading to his demise and disappearance."
There's also the Great Clan Chief of the Descenders fighting a great battle with Tajadon; it seems to be related to this matter as well."
"In that case, keep investigating this matter." Su Heng thought for a mont, gave the order, and then carefully preserved the remaining piece of at with ice and placed it into his storage space.
Henos had a trait that was isolated from the Divine Plague, and such a lineage might prove to be of great use in the future.
Su Heng always wanted to replicate this kind of lineage and preserve it.
Now that Henos was dead.
The little bit left was rely a case of trying to save a dead horse as though it were alive.
After dealing with this, Su Heng wasted no ti and imdiately set about post-war reconstruction efforts.
He first t with the remaining high-ranking mbers of the Dark Army, those willing to submit were implanted with spirit control, and he didn't bother to argue with those harboring hidden sches, proceeding directly to execution. The Dark Army was internally divided into different factions; so specialized in airborne raids, so preferred fast raids, while others were best at frontal assaults.
To reduce the difficulty of command, Su Heng disrupted the original camps and reford them into ten different battle groups for integration and training.
The Dark Army inherently worshiped the strong, coupled with the blessings of the immortality bestowed on Su Heng and his clear reward and punishnt system.
Commanding such an army was not difficult.
Even within a relatively short period, the entire Dark Army had been reford into Su Heng's private forces.
Having resolved this most troubleso issue, Su Heng started to establish a unified governnt.
For thousands of years, the West Continent and the Eastern Continent had been in a state of separation, with few people even aware of each other's existence. But now, with the Mythical Battlefield that fell in the deep sea having been removed by Su Heng, the bridge between the two continents was reopened, initiating mutual contact.
Such contact inevitably started with sharp conflicts.
The people of the West Continent spread the Divine Plague within the Zhou Dynasty; had it not been for Su Heng's efforts, it would have been the end of the nation and its people.
And on the West Continent, people were full of resentnt. The spreading of the Divine Plague had nothing to do with these commoners, yet you ca forth and began a massacre without a word. Those of the Dark Army were not as ruthless as you lot. If it were not for Su Heng reigning supre and restraining all, these people would definitely start fighting again.
It was a troubleso issue, but Su Heng's way of solving problems was straightforward.
First, he eradicated all physical evidence related to the Divine Plague and the massacre, then issued a prohibition, forbidding anyone from ntioning it.
The first offense is seen as ignorance and daring, punished rely by cutting off the tongue. The second offense leads to the amputation of both hands. If there's a third ti, it's regarded as a deliberate provocation of the Demon Dragon's Majesty, resulting in the execution of the nine kinships.
Of course, such an order certainly could not be issued by Su Heng.
Making Li Hongxiu suffer a bit more, she could carry the infamy.
After handling this matter, Su Heng convened the remaining Descenders at the Central Temple of the West Continent.
The Great Clan Chief was already dead, and no matter what, it had beco a fait accompli. Moreover, in a sense, the murderer of the Great Clan Chief was the one who died by Su Heng's hand, the latter even had a favor upon them.
These Descenders ekly chose to cooperate, none of them continued to resist. Su Heng did not trouble them; besides their skills on the battlefield, these Descenders were also scientists, Biological Alchemists, holding many forbidden sciences from the Federation Era. They would still play an important role in the reconstruction of the West Continent and the venture into the Star Sea.
The only one subjected to execution was Indra.
For the other Descenders, Indra was the greatest traitor, indirectly causing the death of their leader.
For Su Heng, on one hand, Indra had disrupted his plans, and on the other, called upon the people of the Dark Army with malicious intent.
Although the impact on Su Heng in the end was minimal, wrongdoings must be punished.
Indra confessed to his cris without denial, with no argunt to make.
He only asked that he be sentenced to death by fire, as his loved one Agni had perished in the atomic blaze capable of propelling starships. Su Heng nodded, fulfilling Indra's last wish. As the orange-yellow flas engulfed him, Indra did not even scream, but instead showed a look of relief on his face.
