367 Madness
The chief of the Tiandu division had been enjoying his life. Hearing the news, he even suspected that the news was fake.
In his eyes, although the human race had produced Yuchi, who was an anomaly strong enough to kill the previous chief of this branch of the Tiandu division, Andrew, the human race was nowhere as strong.
Yuchi had not led the human race into the battlefield between the myriad races either. Of course, such a thing would not have resulted in anything good either.
Not only would he have to constantly protect the human race from retaliation, but their internal affairs would affect his cultivation as well.
Furthermore, if Yuchi died, the human race would suffer the brunt of the revenge, and would most likely be sent back to the dark ages.

Therefore the strength of one person could never represent an entire race.
As such, such news was completely shocking to him. He looked at his subordinate in disbelief, asking, “Are you sure? This had better not be a joke.”
The subordinate smiled bitterly and knelt on the ground. “Chief, if I’m lying, feel free to punish me however you like, but I can swear that this is the truth.”
Ordinton, who was the current chief of this branch of the Tiandu division, immediately fell silent.
His subordinate anxiously added, “We have a rough understanding of how things went down. The humans were the first to attack the Flor race. Even the Flor race’s emissaries who were sent to negotiate with the humans ended up dead.”
“After that, the humans spent a year leading tens of millions of soldiers into the Flor race’s territory and wiped out their entire population of over 10 million.”
“Some time ago, a member of the Flor race came to our branch of the Tiandu division to ask for help, but by the time he reached us, it was obvious that the Flor race had been wiped out by the humans. We’ve sent people to the scene to take a look, and it’s been devastated. It’s hard to imagine why the humans would do something so outrageous at a time like this. There are even many of them who cooked and ate the corpses of the Flor race.”
Ordinton immediately covered his mouth and almost vomited.
He stared at his subordinate with wide eyes.
The subordinate was also trembling.
“Yes. That place felt no different from hell, perhaps even more terrifying.”
As he recalled the scene, he held back the nausea and disgust he felt.
How could those humans bring themselves to do such a thing?

Then, the subordinate asked, “So, how should we deal with this? The news has already spread to the other races in the regions, and many of them are in the midst of sending emissaries to report this to us, and to each other. Our spies have already confirmed this, so it’s definitely not false.”
“Also, they are planning to band together to punish the human race. There are at least a hundred races with such plans.”
Ordinton felt that everything that had happened was too absurd.
The Tiandu division had never dealt with such an issue, because everyone was aware of the unspoken rules that one should never completely uproot a race.
Killing others in a war was fine, but destroying their homeland and exterminating them was taboo.
Even the stronger races abided by this, and did not go too far when demanding tributes from the smaller races.
The Tiandu division even had a famous quote.
“Every race should enjoy the most basic right to live. No one can interfere with this right to live. Even the smallest race may suddenly shine brightly like a star in the future.”
The quote was fancy, but it conveyed the stance that every race adhered to.
In addition, throughout history, this unspoken rule had been upheld.
Total annihilation was unheard of, and was something that only a very small number of battle-crazy races dared to do.
“How could the human race do such a terrifying thing?”
“Chief, what do we do now?”
With a face full of worry, Ordinton said, “What do we do? This matter is already very clear!”
