Chapter 41 Getting Strength from Killing

Whoever gets the Chiyou Axe is destined to start a bloody storm, and yet its requirements for recognition are not very strict, which is the scariest part. Many people can meet the conditions.
Ying Yuhua believes that Wei Lie has a great chance of making Chi You's axe recognize him as its master!
"The only condition for Chi You's axe to recognize a master is to have the ambition to dominate the world!"
"The ambition to dominate the world?"
Zhao Qi frowned.
This condition is not too harsh. There are so many ambitious people in the world, especially as chaos is already evident in today's society. It is likely that many people are hiding their aspirations to become the emperor and waiting for their chance.
He sighed softly.
“Only afraid that Duke Dongze will get what he wishes for.”
Zhao Qi and Ying Yuhuan share the same view.
Duke Dongze, controlled by Wei Lie, imposes heavy taxes on the people and squeezes them dry, but the soldiers are all strong and healthy, with no deductions in military preparations.
In the maple forest, a considerable portion of the ordinary soldiers who were trained are ruthless and efficient elite soldiers, who execute orders without hesitation, even if it means killing innocent women and children.
Wei Lie oppressed and disregarded the lives of the people, but he immediately gave a lavish funeral to the soldiers who died under him, feigning sorrow and buying people's hearts.
If such a person claimed to have no ambition, who would believe it?
As a member of the royal family of Great Wei and a regional prince who already ruled a territory, he was still not satisfied. His ambition was evident!
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Wei Lie with his fierce appearance opened his eyes, and his pupils became as dark as two black suns, ready to devour everything. He swept his battle-axe horizontally.
The chain on Chiyou's axe was completely broken, and the axe blade cut through iron like mud.
Hahaha...
Wei Lijie laughed triumphantly, looking up at the sky.
He had succeeded in making the Chiyou's axe recognize him as its master.
"Oh, divine axe, in ancient times you made Chiyou famous!"
Now it's up to you to help me embark on my domination!"
Seeing Wei Lie successfully make Chi You's Axe submit, Mirror Lake's old man, who was being held captive by the soldiers, looked defeated and pained. He still helped King Zhou commit tyranny.
Congratulations to the Eastern Marquis, congratulations to the Eastern Marquis!
Wu Liang's face showed excitement, and the soldiers around him cheered excitedly.
"Silence!"
Wei Lie swiftly waved his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet. The forest became silent immediately. He flashed a cold-blooded look in his eyes, turned to Wu Liang, and slowly gave his order.
"Bring them up. My divine axe has not tasted the taste of blood in thousands of years!"
"Yes."
Wu Liang bowed and accepted the order, waving his hand: "Bring the prisoners!"
Heavy prison carts were pulled into the center of Fenglin.
Wei Lie caressed the axe, which had a black and glossy body like jade, and his cold gaze landed on the prisoner carriages, as if he was looking at a platter of delicious food.
Having long known about the abilities of the Chiyou Axe, he had prepared for everything from the beginning.
He couldn't wait to experience the power of the Chiyou Axe himself.
A group of martial arts experts wearing shackles were pulled off the car by elite soldiers, pressed down in a posture of being about to be executed, and kneeled beside the pond.
In the end, only one huge prison wagon remained still.
Looking at the burly figure in the prison wagon, which was like a bear, the crowd's eyes flashed with fear. The prisoner in the wagon was Shen Hong, the leader of tens of thousands of bandits in Dongze County. He had a penchant for cannibalism and even stopped babies from crying.
那道虎背熊腰的身影，盘坐在囚车里，披头散发低着头，看不清面容，在痛苦的喘息。
他的身上玄黑铁锁链层层绕绕，从头捆到脚，几乎如一个粽子，只露出了脑袋，锁链之上染有干涸血迹，也有一些鲜红的鲜血滴落。
The chain on Shen Hong's body is not an ordinary chain, it is called the Prison Dragon Chain, made of extraterrestrial mysterious iron, even a Martial Saint would have a hard time breaking free from it.
Furthermore, from the outside it just looks like a chain, but the inside has spikes, which, once locked onto the body, will deeply pierce into various acupuncture points.
被锁住的人，莫说行走坐卧，连起身伸展一下肢体都做不到，稍稍一动皮肉就会被剧烈的撕扯开，筋骨都被重创！
便是蛟龙被锁上这套锁链，也只能被老实扔在监牢里，无法逃脱。
Dripping blood on the chain is the result of Shen Hong's recent struggle.
Puff!
Wei Lie sneered and looked at Shen Hong in the prison car, then walked to a row of martial arts masters who were kneeling down and swung his axe to cut them down.
A head was chopped off.
"I feel it!"
Wei Lie lay comfortably on his back, emitting a sound, with the black in his eyes becoming even deeper and more mysterious, as if tainted with a hint of devilishness, and letting out a moan.
A scorching power emanated from the axe, strengthening his muscles, bones and flesh, like steel wrought in a furnace.
"The power of the Chiyou's Axe is truly outstanding, allowing one to become stronger by massacring living creatures!"
Wei Lie swung his axe again and another head fell.
A former martial arts expert is now trapped here, waiting to be slaughtered.
"Wei Lie, you'll have a miserable end!"
"Dong Hou, spare me, spare my life!"
Some people were cursing, some were begging, and some were resentful and unwilling to die so humiliated.
"Wei Lie, is this how a man should behave!
Let me go, let's have a fair fight!"
"Wei Gou, are you afraid?"
"You, a member of the Wei royal family, are not even as good as a eunuch with no balls!"
Ignoring the voice in his ear, Wei Lie swung his axe and quickly killed all the martial arts experts. He resumed his exploration, thoroughly enjoying the explosive increase in his physical strength.
With just one cup of tea, the power of the Chiyou Axe went from Martial Arts Master to almost Martial Arts Grandmaster. It's said that this ability - to gain strength from killing - could shock countless people.
However, as Wei Lie continued to chop down the martial arts experts who were being held down, a considerable portion of the soldiers' gaze towards him began to change, and they furrowed their brows.
Every soldier practiced martial arts, and the strong were the ones who led in the army. As a prince, Wei Lie borrowed the power of his subordinates and oppressed others with force, slaughtering the group of martial arts experts like pigs, which made them very uncomfortable.
Wei Lie opened his eyes and noticed these changes. He had anticipated them with a cold smirk on his face. He raised his axe and pointed it towards the giant prison carriage, shouting out boldly, his voice echoing through the surroundings.
"Release him. Remove his chains."
Today we shall offer the blood of humans and bears as a sacrifice to our sacred axe!
