Chapter 14842 Showing Mercy
The purpose of the wanted notice was to find Xiao Lianzhu and use her to blackmail Ling Xiao, making him hesitant to act and allowing the Silent Court to manipulate him.
But he never expected that Ling Xiao's fiancée would be the mayor of the underworld town, the most untouchable being in legend!
This is absolutely suicidal!
"It's a misunderstanding." Lin Hao took a deep breath, suppressing his shock and helplessness, and said in a deep voice.
"This is a misunderstanding."
The person we are after is Ling Xiao's fiancée, Xiao Lianzhu, not you, the mayor of the underworld town. It's just that the two of you share the same name, which has caused a misunderstanding.
"Please calm down, Mayor. Our Silent Court is willing to offer compensation to make amends for today's mistake."
Before she finished speaking, the killing intent in Xiao Lianzhu's eyes suddenly surged, and she raised her hand and flicked her sleeve!
boom……!
An even more terrifying force than before, like a tsunami, swept towards Lin Hao, carrying a world-destroying power.
Lin Hao's expression changed drastically, and he was extremely shocked. Without daring to delay for the slightest, he suddenly drew his sword!
The sword light was dazzling, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, carrying a powerful sword aura, and collided violently with that terrifying force!
boom……!
A deafening roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth, and a violent energy shockwave swept in all directions.
The entire mountain of the Silent Court trembled more and more violently, the cracks in the ground continued to widen, countless pebbles rolled down, and smoke and dust filled the air, blotting out the sun.
Lin Hao felt a tremendous force coming from him, his whole body trembled violently, his blood surged, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His body was like a kite with a broken string, retreating thousands of feet before he could barely stabilize himself.
His hand holding the sword was split open at the base of his thumb, and blood was dripping down the hilt of the sword.
The divine sword in his hand, which had been with him for hundreds of years, endured countless battles, and never been damaged, was now covered with dense cracks that were spreading rapidly, as if it would shatter completely at any moment.
"How is this possible?!" Lin Hao's pupils shrank, his eyes filled with disbelief and shock, and a huge wave of emotions surged in his heart.
He is one of the eight divine envoys of the Silent Extinction Court, the most outstanding existence in the Silent Extinction Court, with unfathomable cultivation. Looking at the entire Chaotic Martial World, he is also a top expert.
But this woman in front of him almost killed him with a casual wave of her hand, and even nearly shattered his natal divine sword.
"Misunderstanding?" Xiao Lianzhu looked down at him, the murderous intent in her eyes growing stronger, her icy voice carrying a chilling edge.
"You issued a warrant for my arrest, used my name to threaten someone you wanted to kill, put him in danger, and left him to face all your schemes and pursuit alone. Now you're telling me it's a misunderstanding?"
A deep chill flashed in her eyes, and her aura grew increasingly cold.
In that instant, she thought of Ling Xiao.
Thinking of that stubborn boy, who always shouldered all the dangers himself, so as not to implicate her, so as to protect her, he faced countless powerful enemies alone, and endured all the pressure and scheming alone.
Thinking of those people who used her name to threaten him, to coerce him, to try to make him bow down, to try to make him submit, to try to make him give up all his principles.
And he never told her, never complained to her, and never even let her sense the slightest danger...
He silently endured everything, just so that she could stay peacefully in the underworld town, unharmed.
“Very good.” Xiao Lianzhu suddenly smiled, a smile that was the most beautiful in the world, breathtakingly beautiful, but her eyes were filled with an icy chill that made people's bones go cold, and her words were like ice picks falling.
"Since you enjoy using my name so much, provoking and acting recklessly in every way, then I'll make sure you remember exactly what the name 'Xiao Lianzhu' means..."
This means you can't afford to offend the heavens!
Before she finished speaking, she slowly raised her hand, a ball of dark, cold energy condensing in her palm, and without hesitation, she struck down with her palm!
Rumble...!
A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth; the terrifying palm force, like Mount Tai pressing down, crashed down on the core area of the Silent Court!
Dozens of majestic buildings collapsed with a crash, bricks and tiles flew everywhere, wood chips flew in all directions, and billowing dust blotted out the sky!
Countless disciples of the Silent Court who had no time to escape were buried by the collapsing buildings amidst their desperate screams. Blood seeped out from the cracks in the rubble, staining the entire ground red.
Those are no ordinary buildings... They are the foundation and heritage painstakingly accumulated by the Silent Extinction Court over hundreds of years, the cultivation technique pavilion, the elixir hall, the armory of divine weapons, and the inheritance tower built by countless predecessors with painstaking efforts...
It contains the Silent Extinction Court's supreme cultivation techniques, a vast amount of elixirs, peerless divine weapons, and secret treasures passed down through generations.
But all of this was reduced to a charred ruin by Xiao Lianzhu's palm strike, leaving no room for redemption!
"No...! My Silent Court! My foundation!"
Zhang Xuanyi's remnant soul howled madly in the distance, its voice shrill and desperate, tears mingling with the slight glint of its soul as it fell, yet it didn't even have the courage to take a step closer...
He could only watch helplessly as the Silent Court, which he had dedicated his life to protecting and to which he had devoted countless efforts, was destroyed bit by bit.
Lin Hao stood there, his face ashen, his knuckles clenched so tightly they turned white, his blood surging, yet he suppressed the urge to attack, not daring to move an inch.
The gap is too big.
It was so outrageous that he didn't even have the right to fight back.
Xiao Lianzhu's strength far exceeded his comprehension, like heaven and earth. If he were to make a rash move, he would only suffer the same fate as Yingfeng, with his soul and spirit annihilated, leaving not even a trace of his soul behind.
Xiao Lianzhu did not stop. She slowly raised her hand again, and in her palm, a power even more terrifying than before, enough to tear the heavens and earth apart and destroy the entire Silent Court, was rapidly gathering.
A dark light swirled around his palm, causing even the surrounding void to distort and tremble slightly.
She's going to destroy this place.
This place that dared to use her name to provoke and threaten Ling Xiao has been completely destroyed, and the Silent Extinction Court has been removed from the Chaotic Martial World!
Just at this critical moment, an urgent voice suddenly rang out, breaking the deathly silence: "Mayor, please show mercy!"
Before the words were finished, the void cracked open again, and another figure slowly walked out. His steps were steady, and he exuded a powerful aura. He was in no way inferior to Lin Hao, and even slightly surpassed him.
It was an old man with white hair and a kind face. He wore a gray Taoist robe and seemed gentle, but his body exuded an unfathomable pressure... He was none other than Chen Sheng, one of the eight divine envoys of the Silent Court!
He strode up to Xiao Lianzhu without hesitation, bowed deeply, his posture extremely humble, and his tone utterly respectful.
“Mayor, today’s events are entirely the fault of my Silent Court. We were blind to your greatness and mistakenly issued the arrest warrant, offending your dignity. We deserve to die.”
Whether you kill us or torture us, we will have no complaints and will willingly accept the punishment.
But please, for the sake of the Holy Temple, show some leniency and leave a way out for the Court of Oblivion, and give us disciples a glimmer of hope.
