Shen Bai said pensively, "I'm a simple man. Everything you're saying is too sophisticated for me to understand."
His reasoning was simple.
The Forbidden Land had its own rules, and his goal was to shatter them all.
As for the rest, Shen Bai couldn't be bothered.
"Where is the control core for the City Lord's Mansion?" Shen Bai asked.
The City Lord was already beyond saving. Under the destructive power of Shen Bai's Sword Qi, he was only managing to cling to life for a few more moments.
The City Lord gave a bitter smile. "It's right inside the City Lord's Mansion. My study has a secret passage that leads directly to the control core. You want to destroy it?"
"Molten Rock City will be destroyed."
"But perhaps that's for the best. We're all living a lie anyway. It might be better if everything is destroyed."
With those words, the City Lord could hold on no longer. He disintegrated into a cloud of ash, from head to toe.
Once the ash settled, nothing at all remained.
