Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 15005 Jiang Yijian Appears

The terrifying effects of the Annihilation Death Array made Wu Guang unable to accept the black-robed elder's orders, because once the array was activated, all of them would die; it would be a mutual destruction.

“I know what you’re thinking, but at this point, do you think we have any other choice? Unless Jiang Yijian comes out of seclusion, the Demon Soul Clan will not only destroy us, but also Xiang Ying!”

The old man in black robes spoke calmly, but a resolute glint flashed in his eyes. "The Demon Soul Clan's target is Xiang Ying, and the destruction of the Silent Court. They will not give us any way out. Even if we die, we will drag them down with us. We cannot let them succeed, and we cannot let Xiang Ying's breakthrough be in vain!"

"As long as Xiang Ying and Jiang Yijian are still alive, there is still hope for the Silent Court. Go, carry out the order!"

Wu Guang's lips trembled, his eyes filled with reluctance and unwillingness, but he also knew that what the old man in black robes said was true. They were now in a desperate situation and had no other choice.

"Alright, I understand. I'm willing to die for the Silent Court, to perish together with those Demon Soul Clan scum!"

After speaking, he turned and headed towards the depths of the main hall.

However, at that moment, the unusual activity from the Demon Soul Clan made him stop and look over curiously.

After all, deep down he was still reluctant to activate the Annihilation Death Array. Unless absolutely necessary, who would want to perish together with others? If the Demon Soul Clan withdrew due to internal reasons, that would be even better.

On the Demon Soul Clan's side, the old elder frowned deeply, because the communication jade slip in his hand once again transmitted information: "Clan leader, something bad has happened!"

"What's going on? Can't you see we're about to take over the Silent Court? Can a mere Lingxiao cause any upheaval in our Demon Soul Clan?"

Yelü Tian had no good feelings towards this old retainer. It was this old fellow who had persuaded him to stay before, and now he was acting so startled and overreacting, which was really annoying.

The old elder naturally knew this as well, but he dared not conceal the information. He could only helplessly say, "Ling Xiao led the Thousand Ghost Riders, along with the Black and White Impermanence, and more than a dozen Void Extinction Realm experts to launch a surprise attack on the clan. Clan Chief Yelü Jin perished, and dozens of core experts in the clan were all... all killed!"

At this point, the old temple trembled with fear.

Ling Xiao is just a minor True Realm expert, how could he bring so many experts to attack the Demon Soul Clan? That's a huge miscalculation.

Yelü Tian was completely dumbfounded, as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt, utterly bewildered.

He couldn't believe that Yelü Jin, the patriarch of the Demon Soul Clan, was dead.

Yelü Jin's strength is now no less than his, how could this be!

He never took Ling Xiao seriously from beginning to end; if it weren't for Jia Shi, he wouldn't even remember the name.

In his eyes, this kid was nothing more than a clown who was just a bully pretending to be powerful.

But he just couldn't understand how this clown had become such a major threat to the Demon Soul Clan, not only leading a group of powerful warriors to raid his home but also causing the Demon Soul Clan to suffer heavy losses.

The old elder gritted his teeth and continued, "The clan has suffered heavy losses and its foundation is shaken. Ling Xiao is also looting the clan, emptying its treasure trove and cultivation resources. That guy is trying to uproot our Demon Soul Clan!"

Yelü Tian's face turned pale and then red, and the bone staff in his hand trembled from the force he was using, almost breaking in his hand.

He was furious!

It felt like there was a fire inside me that wanted to burst out. How dare this little bastard!

"Ling Xiao! I will kill you! I will definitely kill you! I will search the ends of the earth for you!"

The old elder looked at Yelü Tian and sighed helplessly: "Lingxiao's side is out of control, and the clan has suffered heavy losses. If we don't go back to support them, I'm afraid the foundation of the Demon Soul Clan will be completely destroyed!"

"Shut up!" Yelü Tian glared at the old elder. "You were the one who told me not to go back to rescue them before, and now you're telling me to go back? What's the point of going back now? We've already killed those who needed to be killed and looted those who needed to be looted. Are we going back to collect their corpses?"

"Never mind him! Kill Xiang Ying first! Today, even if the Demon Soul Clan's lair is razed to the ground, I will kill Xiang Ying and destroy the Silent Court! After I kill her, I will go back and grind that brat Ling Xiao to dust, making him pay a thousandfold price!"

At this moment, Yelü Tian really wanted to kill Ling Xiao, but he also knew that he absolutely could not leave now. The Silent Court was about to be taken down, and there was a chance to kill Xiang Ying. What use would it be to go back now?

The old monk opened his mouth, but dared not say anything.

Yelü Tian was right. At this point, there seemed to be nothing they could do but collect the bodies.

"That's right, it's my fault. So today I'll fight with all my might to take down the Silent Court!" The old elder knew he was in the wrong and had to do something, otherwise he would definitely be scolded to death when he got back.

Yelü Tian ignored the man and, in the next instant, unleashed all his soul power, making the Soul-Devouring Demonic Fire rage to its extreme.

The Soul-Devouring Demonic Flames continued to fall.

One hundred zhang!

Fifty feet!

Thirty zhang!

……

When the Soul-Devouring Demonic Flame was less than ten feet away from the main hall of the Silent Court, Wu Guang sighed, knowing there was little hope. So he went all out to walk inside, attempting to activate the Silent Death Array.

The old man in the black robe closed his eyes, awaiting the final mutual destruction.

Yao Tianji and Jiang Chuan sat there supporting each other. They could feel the intense heat of the Soul-Devouring Demonic Fire, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Once this thing falls, everything here may be reduced to nothing.

However, at that moment, a figure tore through the void and descended from the sky.

The man rode a magnificent, snow-white steed. Its mane was as white as silk, flowing freely in the wind, and its four hooves trod through the misty white clouds, as if it were walking on air.

The moment they appeared, a terrifying sword intent that reached the heavens and the earth pierced through the entire world, causing the heavens and earth to tremble.

"Wu Guang, wait a minute, it seems like he's emerged from seclusion!"

The old man in the black robe was extremely excited.

Wu Guang stopped, looked up at the sky, his eyes also filled with excitement and hope: "Jiang Yijian, you bastard, you actually came out!"

"Senior Jiang Yijian!"

"It's Senior Jiang Yijian!"

"We're saved! Senior Jiang is finally out!"

The entire Silent Court instantly erupted in jubilation, for they knew that once Jiang Yijian emerged from seclusion, the Demon Soul Clan would be the ones to suffer.

They have persevered until now, and finally there is hope.

"Jiang Yijian really knows how to show off. He can just come out, but he has to make such a big fuss!" Yao Tianji said with a wry smile.

"There's nothing we can do. He's really arrogant. He's one of the eight strongest people, and his strength is no less than that of the town mayor. With him involved, we're safe this time, and we won't die."

Jiang Chuan smiled as well.

The Holy Rune Academy also has such a top-tier expert, but unfortunately, like Jiang Yijian, he prefers to wander around. (End of Chapter)
