With these words, not only were the officials from Canghe County shocked, but also Li Zhihe, the Demon Slayer Director from Qingyun, and Li Qiu, the County Captain, were all visibly changed.
Li Qiu quickly spoke, "County Magistrate Tao, these are nearly twenty thousand lives, and moreover, they have surrendered as prisoners. Throughout history, killing prisoners has been considered inauspicious; this action is inappropriate!"
Now that Wang Xuantian is dead, apart from a few who are still resisting, the rest of the Black Mountain army have laid down their arms and surrendered, accounting for nearly twenty thousand prisoners. This is no small number, not just ten or a hundred people.
Tao Xingzheng was planning to casually kill all twenty thousand prisoners with a single sentence!
