Chapter 14843 The Court of Annihilation Makes a Fool of It
"The Holy Temple?" Xiao Lianzhu raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flashing in her dark eyes. Her tone was calm, yet carried an air of arrogance that looked down upon the world. "Do you think a Holy Temple would make me retract my decision?"
"I dare not." Chen Sheng lowered his head even further, his tone still respectful, but with a touch more determination.
"I am merely stating the facts."
The sanctuary and the underworld town have always kept to themselves, without interfering with each other.
If the mayor were to completely annihilate the Silent Court today, it would be difficult to explain to the Holy Temple, inevitably leading to unnecessary conflicts, which might not be beneficial to the mayor.
Xiao Lianzhu looked at him quietly, remained silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled. The smile was still stunning, but it carried a hint of mockery and disdain: "Are you threatening me?"
"Your subordinate wouldn't dare!" Chen Sheng quickly shook his head, his tone becoming even more respectful. "Your subordinate is merely telling the truth and has no intention of threatening in the slightest. I only ask that the town mayor show mercy."
Xiao Lianzhu didn't speak again, and slowly raised her gaze to the horizon.
There, a faint yet incredibly powerful aura was rapidly approaching, its oppressive force so strong that even she couldn't help but frown slightly...
The aura emanating from that powerful figure from the Holy Temple was clearly that of a strong individual, and they arrived even faster than she had anticipated.
"Interesting." Xiao Lianzhu murmured softly, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes. She then slowly withdrew the power from her palm, and the terrifying pressure that was enough to destroy the Silent Court dissipated.
She turned around, lifted her foot lightly, and stepped into the void, her figure gradually becoming blurred.
"Today, out of respect for the church, I will spare you this time."
The cold, clear voice echoed in the air above the Silent Court, carrying an undeniable air of authority.
"But remember, this is the last time. If anyone dares to use my name to provoke me again, or dares to plot against Lingxiao again, I will uproot the Silent Court and ensure that you are never reincarnated!"
As the sound faded, Xiao Lianzhu's figure also vanished completely into the void, leaving only a faint chill that lingered over the devastated ruins.
Chen Sheng stood there, his back soaked in cold sweat, his clothes clinging tightly to his body, and even his breathing was trembling slightly...
In that instant, he truly felt the threat of death. If Xiao Lianzhu made another move, he and the entire Silent Court would be completely wiped out.
After a long while, he slowly turned around, his gaze sweeping over the desolate and horrific Silent Court before him.
He glanced at Zhang Xuanyi's broken and lifeless remnant soul, then at Lin Hao's bloodstained hands and ashen face, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his voice hoarse and heavy.
"shame."
He spoke slowly, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying endless shame and resentment.
"Today marks the greatest humiliation in the history of my Silent Court!"
Everyone present fell silent.
Lin Hao remained silent, as did the remaining disciples of the Silent Court. No one dared to refute him, nor could anyone refute him...
Being crushed at their doorstep, their foundation destroyed, countless disciples killed or injured, and their court master deposed—this was indeed the most humiliating day in the history of the Silent Court for hundreds of years.
"Zhang Xuanyi." Chen Sheng's gaze turned to the broken remnant soul, his eyes filled with complex emotions: regret, anger, and a hint of determination.
“From this day forward, you are no longer the Lord of the Court of Annihilation. The calamity that has befallen the Court of Annihilation today is all your doing. You are no longer worthy to rule the Court of Annihilation.”
Zhang Xuanyi's remnant soul trembled violently, then gave a bitter smile, a smile full of despair and self-mockery. He did not argue, nor did he plead, but simply nodded slightly: "Okay."
The victor is king, the loser is villain; this has been the way of things since ancient times.
He single-handedly caused this disaster, destroying the entire Silent Court, losing his position as the Court Master, and even becoming a useless soul—all of which are his just deserts.
He didn't say another word. His remnant soul slowly drifted into the distance and gradually disappeared into the dark night. From then on, there was no more Zhang Xuanyi of the Silent Extinction Court.
"Lin Hao."
Chen Sheng withdrew his gaze and looked at Lin Hao, who remained silent to the side, his tone heavy yet firm.
"Right now, we have no time to dwell on the shame."
First, we must retrieve the Demon Lord's Black Sky Sword at all costs; it is our hope for turning the tide in the Silent Court.
Second, immediately recall all the powerful figures who are abroad, no matter where they are or whether they want to return or not, and do everything possible to bring them back to the court.
The Court of Annihilation cannot withstand another blow. We must unite as one to overcome this crisis and wash away today's shame.
Lin Hao nodded slowly, suppressing his shock and resentment, a renewed determination rekindling in his eyes: "I understand."
He paused, a hint of doubt in his voice: "But what about those old acquaintances who were offended by Zhang Xuanyi, or those who left in despair? Will they... come back?"
"Yes." Chen Sheng's gaze was firm, and his tone left no room for doubt.
“They are all from the Silent Court, and the Silent Court is their root. Even if they harbor resentment, they will not sit idly by and watch the Silent Court completely decline, nor will they stand by and watch us be ridiculed by the entire Chaotic Martial World.”
The next day, an explosive piece of news spread like a thunderclap throughout the entire chaotic martial arts world; everyone knew about it…
The Silent Court openly issued a warrant for the arrest of the mayor of a small town in the underworld, but the mayor himself came to crush him, and the court chief Zhang Xuanyi had his cultivation destroyed and his soul scattered.
Dozens of core buildings of the Silent Court were reduced to ruins, countless disciples were killed or injured, and its foundation was completely destroyed!
Even more ridiculous is that the wanted notice that caused the Silent Court to pay a heavy price turned out to be a complete blunder...
The "Xiao Lianzhu" they are after shares the same name as the mayor of the underworld town. To put it bluntly, they are blind to the true nature of a person and have mistaken a tiger for a cat, thus courting their own death!
In an instant, the major forces in the chaotic martial arts world were in an uproar, followed by a chorus of laughter.
The once invincible and powerful Silent Court has now become a laughing stock in the entire chaotic martial arts world, a topic of conversation among various forces, losing all face and prestige.
Meanwhile, deep within the Demon Lord's ruins, swords clashed and waves of energy surged.
The sharp blade energy crisscrossed, cutting through the surrounding void as if it were a tangible substance, leaving behind fine cracks. The ground was covered with blade marks of varying depths, and the air was filled with a strong sense of blade intent and a faint smell of blood.
Ling Xiao stood holding his sword, his body drenched in sweat, his clothes soaked through and clinging tightly to his body, his breathing slightly disordered.
A faint trace of blood still lingered at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes grew even sharper, like a drawn blade, gleaming with unwavering determination…
The bloodthirsty blade in his hand swirled with black light and was surrounded by blood energy. Its blade spirit trembled slightly, clearly indicating that it was also growing rapidly.
Opposite him, the demon spirit stood with her hands behind her back, her expression indifferent, and there was no fluctuation of aura around her, as if the fierce battle just now was nothing more than a casual act to her.
"You have mastered the Blood Sacrifice Symbiosis Blade Dao and the Law of Causality Blade Dao very well, and your application of the moves is becoming more and more fluid, enough to crush strong opponents of the same level."
The demon spirit spoke slowly, his tone calm, yet carrying a subtle hint of approval.
