Wen Sheng's cold gaze swept over the forty-one demon kings who were at the half-step demon lord realm. These demon kings could feel the killing intent emanating from Wen Sheng, but it quickly dissipated.

"Although you have committed countless sins against our human race in the mortal realm, as long as you are willing to cooperate with us to obtain enough intelligence, and as long as you can cooperate with us to successfully take over the entire Eight Extremes Star, I am willing to swear to my Dao Heart to ensure the safety of the lives of your forty-one demon kings."

"Although you will lose your freedom in the coming period, I guarantee that you will enjoy the same treatment as the previous prisoners."

"We will take full responsibility for healing your injuries, and I can swear this oath to my Dao Heart."

"I am a cultivator at the Integration Realm. You should be aware of the consequences of breaking your vows of faith."

The forty-one demon kings at the half-step demon lord realm had slight changes in their expressions. They were well aware of the enormous price a cultivator at the Integration stage would have to pay if they broke their Dao Heart Oath.

Hearing Wen Sheng make his vow of Dao Heart, the forty-one cultivators at the half-step Demon Lord realm finally breathed a sigh of relief, believing that Wen Sheng would not lie to them.

However, these demon kings at the half-step demon lord level had no idea that they had fallen into the trap Sun Yi had set for them.

The Lord of the Big Dipper stood behind, a slight smile playing on his lips. Wen Sheng had just suggested that these forty-one demon kings would receive the same treatment as the previous prisoners.

It's not about giving them the same treatment as those demon kings who can drink tea, cultivate, and read books, but rather the same treatment as those who are skinned, dismembered, and have their scales removed.

The Lord of the Big Dipper did not believe that Sun Yi would leave so many top-tier materials unclaimed. The Lord of the Big Dipper could already foresee how miserable the fate of these demon kings would be.

However, the Lord of the Big Dipper saw through it but didn't say anything. Anyway, these demon kings had caused heavy casualties to the human race, so how could the human race let them go easily?

Yang Yuan, the academy master standing nearby, naturally noticed this as well, but he remained calm and composed, as if he knew nothing.

After Wen Sheng finished doing everything as Sun Yi asked, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, I can guarantee your safety. I hope you will fully cooperate with their work from now on."

"Take them away and question them separately. If anyone dares to reveal false information, it won't just be me breaking my oath." Wen Sheng's warning gaze swept over the demon kings.

"Please rest assured, senior, I will cooperate fully."

"Now that we have decided to cooperate, we will never go back on our word."

"let's start!"

……

Wen Sheng waved his hand, and a group of human cultivators at the half-step Void Refinement realm who were in slightly better condition led the group of demon kings to split up and begin asking for information.

After these demon kings were taken away, only Wen Sheng and a group of cultivators with relatively weak auras remained on the spot.

Among them, the nine cultivators who were at the very beginning of the starry sky and were at the half-step Void Refinement Realm were in the worst condition. They were all injured and weak.

"Senior Wensheng, do you really want to protect these demon kings? Countless humans have died at their hands over the years. Are you just going to let it go like this?" Yue Shan of the Five Elements Sect looked at Wensheng with some reluctance.

"Yes, if you ask me, we shouldn't have agreed to those beasts. We should have skinned them alive!" Lin Xuan said coldly, radiating an astonishing killing intent.

"Alas, although these demon kings deserve to die, this is Sect Leader Sun's arrangement." Wen Sheng sighed, though he was actually somewhat unwilling.

"What was Sect Leader Sun thinking? Why would he want to save the lives of these demon kings!" Xingyu from the Tianxing Sect frowned, his heart filled with confusion.

"Uncle Xingyu, you've misunderstood Sect Leader Sun," the Star Lord of the Big Dipper couldn't help but explain to everyone.

"What misunderstanding has Sect Leader Sun had?" Those who were unaware of the situation turned their gaze to the Lord of the Big Dipper, wondering what he meant by those words.

The Lord of the Big Dipper smiled and explained, "This is a trap set by Sect Leader Sun for these demon kings. Senior Wensheng's oath was to ensure their safety, not to prevent them from being skinned alive."

"Instead, we will first extract useful information from them, and then use these top demon kings to quickly take control of the Eight Extremes Star."

"With the assistance of these forty-one top demon kings, we can quickly take control of the entire Eight Extremes Star and completely control it in a short time."

"Once these demon kings are no longer of any use, Sect Leader Sun will definitely skin them alive, remove their scales and teeth. Don't worry, the final fate of these demon kings will be worse than death."

"But didn't Senior Wensheng already promise these demon kings that they could enjoy the same treatment as the previous demon prisoners? I see those prisoners are living very well." Lin Xuan looked at the Lord of the Big Dipper with a puzzled expression, and even Wensheng showed a puzzled expression.

"Hahaha, even you were fooled by the video sent by Sect Leader Sun. Only a few demon kings who were captured before could enjoy this kind of treatment. Most of the captives were skinned alive by the Qingyun Sect."

"Senior Wensheng only promised them the same treatment as the previous prisoners, but he didn't specify what kind of treatment they would receive. So, it won't be considered a breach of his oath, right?"

Upon hearing the explanation from the Lord of the Big Dipper, everyone who was previously unaware of the situation, including Wen Sheng, froze in place, but they immediately understood.

"What a huge pit! Sect Leader Sun is really something!"

"That's right, it won't be considered a breach of oath then!"

"Do these damned demon kings think they're safe once they're taken prisoner? They'll find out soon enough that death is better than life."

"Once they cooperate with us to complete all the work, we'll let them taste the methods of our human race!"

These top experts at the half-step Void Refinement Realm now understood Sun Yi's intentions and how deep the pit he had dug for them was.

They could already foresee how miserable the fate of these demon kings would be, but despite knowing what their end would be, no one felt any sympathy for them; this was the price they had to pay.

Just then, Wensheng received another video call request from Sun Yi. Wensheng quickly pressed the answer button, and the next moment Sun Yi's figure appeared on the smartphone screen.

"Sect Leader Sun, it's all thanks to you that we were able to defeat the demon race." Wen Sheng looked at Sun Yi on the screen and became more and more satisfied with him. He made up his mind that once they returned to the Spirit Realm, he would definitely bring Sun Yi into his faction.

Sun Yi waved his hand with a smile and said, "This is not my achievement alone, but the result of the hard work of all of us."

"Senior Wensheng, how are those demon kings being dealt with?"

"I've already arranged for them to be taken down and questioned about the demon race separately. I believe we'll have results soon. What are your plans for the next step?" Wen Sheng looked at Sun Yi and handed over the decision-making power to him.
