Chapter 14780 Jiang Xingyun vs. Jiang Muguang
Jiang Xingyun's gaze was like a knife, fixed on the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword in Jiang Muguang's hand, his tone cold and solemn:
"Jiang Muguang, my Silent Extinction Court has no prior grudges or enmities with your Jiang family. Why do you interfere in the affairs of my Silent Extinction Court and try to seize this sword?"
Jiang Muguang toyed with the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword in his hand, a playful smile playing on his lips, and said in a light tone, "Our Jiang family is also unwilling to be enemies with the Silent Extinction Court. After all, the Silent Extinction Court's strength is among the top in the Chaotic Martial World."
"If you do not wish to be our enemy, then please return the treasure of my Silent Court!"
Jiang Xingyun took a step forward, and the pressure around him suddenly surged. "This sword was obtained by Elder Sheng Kushan of my Silent Extinction Court, and it rightfully belongs to my Silent Extinction Court. I beg Elder Jiang not to force me to do something against my will!"
Jiang Muguang suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter full of sarcasm: "Jiang Xingyun, what makes you say that this Demon Lord Black Sky Sword belongs to your Silent Extinction Court?"
Jiang Xingyun frowned and asked in return, "Isn't that right? This sword was obtained by an elder of my Silent Extinction Court, so naturally it belongs to my Silent Extinction Court!"
Jiang Muguang's smile faded, his tone tinged with disdain:
"As far as I know, this item was the natal divine weapon of the Demon Lord Heitian back then, and it does not belong to your Silent Extinction Court!"
Now that the Demon Lord has long since perished, this sword is an unclaimed treasure, open to all the strongest in the world. What right does your Silent Extinction Court have to monopolize it? Is it because you have the backing of the Holy Temple?
Jiang Xingyun fell silent... Jiang Muguang's words were like daggers to the heart.
The Demon Lord Black Sky Sword was never a treasure of the Silent Extinction Court. It was only obtained by chance by Holy Bitter Mountain. Now that Holy Bitter Mountain is dead, the Silent Extinction Court's desire to monopolize this treasure is indeed illegitimate and cannot be refuted.
Seeing this, Jiang Muguang spoke slowly again, his tone carrying a hint of assertiveness:
"If the Demon Lord were still alive, my Jiang family would gladly offer him up without a word of complaint."
"But towards your Silent Court, and other forces... well, my Jiang family won't be so polite! This treasure is meant for someone destined to possess it; its arrival in my hands today is my good fortune!"
The Chiang family!
Ling Xiao, hidden in the shadows, understood perfectly... Although he had heard of the Jiang family before, he did not know their specific background. Now he truly understood the significance of the Jiang family.
Beyond the Realm of Annihilation lies a truly vast and boundless world, and this realm connected to the Realm of Annihilation is called the Realm of Chaotic Martial Arts.
The Chaotic Martial World, just as its name suggests, is utterly chaotic and devoid of any order; it is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak…
In a society where martial prowess reigns supreme, the strong act with tyranny and bully the weak at will, leaving the weak to fend for themselves and risk death at the slightest misstep.
In this world, there are many powerful families, and the Jiang family is one of them, and it is by no means an ordinary family.
The reason why the Jiang family was able to establish itself in the chaotic martial arts world, and even make the Silent Extinction Court wary, was not only because of its profound family foundation, but more importantly, because the Jiang family produced a top-notch Saint Rune Master...
A powerful Saint Rune Master capable of drawing advanced Saint Runes and refining advanced Saint Rune Stones!
In the chaotic martial world, Saint Inscription Masters are already scarce, and High-level Saint Inscription Masters are even rarer. Each one has a significant influence, and even top forces are unwilling to easily offend a High-level Saint Inscription Master.
Of course, a single high-level Saint Rune Master is not enough to make the Silent Court so wary.
What truly made the Silent Court hesitant to act was that this high-level Saint Rune Master from the Jiang family was also an elder of the Saint Rune Academy!
Holy Emblem Academy!
These four words resounded in Ling Xiao's heart like a thunderclap... Although he had never heard of the name of the Holy Rune Academy, he could see the terror of this force from Jiang Xingyun's expression.
The Holy Rune Academy is one of the top forces in the Chaotic Martial World. The Silent Extinction Court would never dare to underestimate it, much less rashly start a war with it.
It should be understood that if the main force of the Holy Hall is in the Chaotic Martial Realm, the Silent Extinction Court will naturally not be afraid of the Holy Rune Academy... The strength of the Holy Hall is not just talk; it is a top-tier force that spans multiple realms, and crushing the Holy Rune Academy is a piece of cake.
However, the main force of the Holy Temple is not here now, and the Silent Court is simply unable to contend with the Holy Rune Academy on its own.
More importantly, the Holy Rune Academy has intricate connections with the former Demon Lord, and is essentially a force personally built by the Demon Lord back then.
The Silent Court belongs to the Holy Temple, which once joined forces with various forces to besiege the Demon Lord. Therefore, the relationship between the Holy Rune Academy and the Silent Court has always been one of irreconcilable enmity.
Jiang Xingyun weighed the matter in his mind for a moment, his expression growing increasingly solemn...
He was well aware of the Jiang family's strength and the terrifying power of the Holy Rune Academy. If he acted rashly, he might not only fail to retrieve the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword, but he might also cause the Silent Extinction Court to completely offend the Jiang family and the Holy Rune Academy, which would be a loss.
In the end, he did not act rashly, and said in a deep voice:
"Jiang Muguang, with your intelligence, you should be able to see that someone is secretly stirring things up! Someone deliberately spread the news of Shengkushan's defection so that various forces could compete for this sword and reap the benefits. You and I are just pawns!"
Jiang Muguang nodded slowly, his tone calm:
"I knew something was amiss, and I knew there was someone behind the scenes manipulating things."
But my Jiang family doesn't care... The person behind that is targeting your Silent Extinction Court, it has nothing to do with my Jiang family. As long as we can obtain the Demon Lord's Black Heaven Sword, even if we are used, it's worth it."
Jiang Xingyun's eyes turned cold as he stared intently at him:
"If you insist on taking this item, it will not only be targeting the Silent Extinction Court, but also stirring up the entire chaotic martial world. In that case, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of more top forces, and your Jiang family will also be dragged into this catastrophe!"
Jiang Muguang smiled slightly, a glint of greed and determination flashing in his eyes: "This treasure is a heaven-defying object, containing the inheritance of the Demon Lord. It's worth the Jiang family's gamble! Even if it brings calamity, the Jiang family will accept it!"
Jiang Xingyun nodded slightly, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes… Since persuasion was useless, then only fists could settle things. He said in a deep voice, “Then there’s no need for further words! Today, either you return this sword, or I will cripple you and reclaim the treasure!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he sprang up, his spiritual power surging wildly around him, and the power of the holy runes empowered his entire body, transforming him into a white streak of light as he charged toward Jiang Muguang.
Holy runes intertwined on his fist, radiating a world-destroying power. With a single punch, the air itself reverberated violently.
A glint of fighting spirit flashed in Jiang Muguang's eyes, and he laughed heartily, "Good! I've long heard of Elder Jiang's exceptional combat prowess and his leadership of the Annihilation Court's Punishment Division. Today, I'd also like to experience your skills firsthand!"
Before he finished speaking, he flashed forward, wielding the Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword, and charged towards Jiang Xingyun. Blood-red patterns lit up on the sword, and faint demonic energy intertwined with the power of holy runes, making it incredibly powerful.
The two charged out at the same time, their figures intertwining and colliding in the air, and an earth-shattering battle erupted instantly!
In the shadows, Ling Xiao concealed his aura and watched the battle quietly, his eyes filled with shock... It must be said that both of them were extremely powerful, both being top experts at the Returning to Truth Realm level. Every collision could unleash earth-shattering power.
