Chapter 172 Immortal Cultivators Put Down The Rebellion
Just as a group of refugees arrived in Xiaowan Village, everyone in the village was trembling with fear.
Previously, the villagers of Xiaowan Village had gathered to drive away scattered refugees, but they didn't dare to confront over two thousand refugees, especially since these refugees were all young and strong.
Therefore, in the fearful situation of countless people in Xiaowan Village, most of the villagers could only hide in their homes.
Some villagers fled to the mountains.
However, this group of refugees came specifically for the She family, so not a single member of the She family managed to escape.
It wasn't until the She residence was surrounded that the people inside realized they were trapped!
"Xiaojun, what should we do? What should we do?"
At this moment, in Li Xiaojun's home, She Shirun and She Shihan were like ants on a hot pan.
They paced back and forth in the courtyard, occasionally casting worried glances in the direction of the She family.
Just now, the refugees surrounded the She family, and they witnessed it too!
But with so many refugees outside, they didn't dare to go out.
Moreover, the two of them were so beautiful that if any refugee developed improper intentions, they wouldn't even be able to resist.
So even though they were worried, they didn't dare to go out and take a look.
Li Xiaojun had actually noticed the situation with this group of refugees a long time ago.
However, he hadn't paid much attention to it before.
He didn't expect that this group of refugees would surround his father-in-law's house today.
Li Xiaojun used his divine sense to observe the situation inside his father-in-law's house.
If his father-in-law wasn't in any immediate danger, he decided not to intervene.
Because this group of refugee soldiers had a certain order. For example, although they had already looted several landlords' houses, they had never harmed anyone.
Today, if his father-in-law cooperated obediently, he would surely be safe too.
"Shirun, Shihan, take the children and go into the cellar. I'll go out and take a look," Li Xiaojun instructed She Shirun and She Shihan.
Since his father-in-law's house was in trouble, he definitely had to go and see. Even if it was just for show in front of She Shirun and She Shihan.
"Xiaojun, don't go, it's dangerous." She Shirun grabbed Li Xiaojun's hand.
"It's fine, I'm just going to take a look." Li Xiaojun reassured his wife.
In the end, Li Xiaojun still left.
To reassure his wife and daughters, he also hid them in the cellar.
Although Li Xiaojun had the ability to ensure the safety of his wife and daughters, he still had to put on a show.
After leaving home, Li Xiaojun quickly arrived at his father-in-law's house.
However, he remained invisible, and no one could see him.
He casually walked into the crowd of refugee soldiers, who were completely unaware of his presence, and then arrived in front of the She residence.
At this moment, She Rujie was negotiating with the leader of the refugees in the front yard of the She residence.
Li Xiaojun paused for a moment. His father-in-law's intention was to give the refugees all the food in the house, except for a small portion for themselves.
However, this group of refugees couldn't harm anyone in his father-in-law's residence.
After listening to She Rujie's words, the leader of the refugees stated that as long as the She family provided food, he wouldn't harm anyone in the She family.
Furthermore, they wouldn't take any other belongings from the She family.
Li Xiaojun quietly watched the scene unfold beside the crowd. Neither side noticed that there was someone next to them, spectating.
Under Li Xiaojun's observation, the She family quickly reached an agreement with the leader of the refugees.
Next, She Rujie had the servants in the residence help the refugees move the food.
The leader of the refugees indeed kept his word and didn't harm anyone in the She family, apart from taking the food.
Two hours later, all the food in the She family had been taken away by the refugees.
Fortunately, the leader of the refugees was somewhat righteous and left some food for the She family.
However, Li Xiaojun knew that his father-in-law had hidden a lot of food elsewhere, which most people didn't know about.
Even if the refugees took all the food from the She family, they wouldn't let the She family starve.
The refugees left Xiaowan Village.
However, Li Xiaojun became interested in the leader of these refugees.
A young man in his twenties suddenly became the leader of the refugees, controlling the life and death of countless people, yet he could control his own desires, which was remarkable.
In the history of the Earth, weren't all peasant uprisings filled with rivers of blood?
The peasant armies that turned into rebels not only robbed fellow peasants, but also killed the wealthy landlords they hated, violated their wives and daughters, and so on.
But this peasant army, apart from gathering food, refrained from killing anyone.
Moreover, after observing for some time, Li Xiaojun also discovered that this peasant uprising army had almost no training!
In addition, the rebel leader also gave many refugees political lessons, telling them not to bully fellow peasants.
Although this group of rebels had only over two thousand people, they already had the appearance of an army.
However, this world is cruel.
Even a two-thousand-strong army cannot compare to a cultivator at the Foundation Building Stage.
Just as a group of rebels robbed the She family's food and distributed it to more refugees at their base.
A group of cultivators who came down from the state capital arrived, riding on a flying boat, with only dozens of people.
But all of them were cultivators, with the lowest cultivation level being at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining, and the leader was even a cultivator at the Foundation Building Stage.
"Look, it's an immortal master."
"The immortal master is here, we're done for!"
"Run!"
On the flying boat, the cultivators calmly floated in the air, scanning all the panicked refugees below.
Below, a group of refugees were in a state of panic.
Facing cultivators, ordinary people had no power to resist, which was why the refugees were panicking!
They rebelled, and the imperial court sent cultivators to suppress them.
Below, the rebel leader, surrounded by a group of subordinates, looked at the Foundation Building Stage cultivator flying in the sky with a desperate expression.
He had long anticipated that when he led the refugees in rebellion, there would eventually be a day like this.
But if he didn't rebel, countless people would starve to death. Even if given another chance, he would still choose to lead everyone in rebellion.
The Ascension Divine Dynasty had stood for hundreds of thousands of years and couldn't be overthrown by ordinary people.
Even if a group of mortals were powerful, they couldn't overthrow a force controlled by cultivators!
This was also the reason why the Ascension Divine Dynasty could inherit for hundreds of thousands of years!
"Who is the leader of the rebel army?" The leader of the cultivators on the flying boat asked indifferently.
"I am the leader of the rebel army. If the immortal master wants to kill someone, just kill me. The others were all coerced by me," the rebel leader pushed aside the protection of the people around him and stepped forward to speak to the cultivators in the sky.
He hoped to exchange his own life for the chance for everyone else to survive.
Upon hearing the rebel leader's words, the cultivators in the sky showed a disdainful expression.
"Daring to rebel, all of you will die, not a single one will survive," the leader of the Foundation Building Stage cultivators said indifferently.
"We are not rebelling. We only took some food from the landlords and distributed it to the starving people. We haven't killed anyone. Does that count as rebellion?"
"Rebellion is rebellion. If you rebel, you must be prepared to die."
"Enough talk, let's deal with these people and go back." At this moment, another Foundation Building Stage cultivator said indifferently.
"Alright, let's get started then."
