Chapter 12989 You Coward
"The strongest being? If she really joins the Holy Temple, then our road will be even more difficult. After all, I am a demon cultivator now, and the situation between me and the Holy Temple has long been a life-and-death struggle."

An indescribable complex emotion was revealed in Jin Yan's words. He shook his head slightly, as if regretting the Demon Sect's former glory and fall.

"Bai Ze Continent, this vast land is full of strong people, but when it comes to the strongest, in the hearts of many people, the glory belongs to the Demon Sect. The Demon Sect, a name that once made the whole continent tremble. They have many strong people and their skills are strange and unpredictable, almost becoming a synonym for strength."

"However, as you said, the reason why the Demon Sect fell from the altar was not because their power declined, but because they touched those things that even the Holy Temple regarded as taboos."

"Those beings are like giant beasts hiding in the dark. They may not show their true colors on weekdays, but once they feel threatened, they will show their despairing power. The Demon Sect was attacked by the Holy Temple because they tried to challenge these taboos, and they were almost destroyed in the end."

Having said this, Jin Yan's eyes became profound, as if he could penetrate the barriers of time and space and see the distant past.

"I really don't know much about the specifics. These are just a few words my father occasionally mentioned when he was drunk. But I can feel the awe and uneasiness in his tone when he talked about this. He said that there really seems to be some kind of unimaginable power above the temple. Even the Demon Sect in its heyday cannot contend with that kind of power."

"Imagine what kind of existence it is? It can easily defeat the Demon Sect and make the entire continent tremble. It may not be known for its military strength, but its influence and deterrence are enough to make any force afraid."

"This Bai Ze continent is far more profound and complex than we imagined, and the Holy Temple is only one of the many forces on this continent. There may be even greater shadows hidden behind it."

A playful smile appeared on Ling Xiao's lips, and his eyes were shining with anticipation and excitement for unknown challenges.

"There are so many secrets and powers hidden deep in the Bai Ze Continent. It makes people want to explore it. In the future, the three of us brothers must work together to uncover these mysteries and find out who is in the holy temple. Such a journey makes people excited just thinking about it."

His words were full of longing and determination for the future, as if he had already seen the moment when he and his brothers would stand on the top of the continent and overlook all living beings.

Then he stood up and straightened his clothes. His calm demeanor seemed as if he was about to embark on a relaxing and enjoyable outing rather than a dangerous adventure.

"Let's go, Jin Yan, we've rested enough, it's time to add fuel to the Jiang family's fire and let them feel our presence." Ling Xiao's voice was low and powerful, revealing an unquestionable firmness.

When Jin Yan heard this, a hint of excitement immediately flashed in his eyes. He stood up, his whole body filled with strength and fighting spirit.

"Let's go! Let those guys from the Jiang family see that we are not easy to mess with!" His voice was full of confidence and heroism, as if he couldn't wait to compete with the Jiang family again.

However, in his excitement, Ling Xiao did not forget to remind Jin Yan to stay vigilant.

"Remember, Jin Yan, although we are quite powerful, the Jiang family has already known our intentions and will definitely strengthen their defenses. The next action will only be more dangerous than before. We must always keep a clear head and not be careless."

Ling Xiao's words were full of care and concern for his brothers. He knew that in this journey full of unknowns and dangers, only by supporting each other could they go further. And Jin Yan was one of his most trusted partners.

Jin Yan smiled slightly when he heard this, his eyes gleaming with confidence. "Don't worry, Boss. Although I am usually careless, I will never fail to deliver at a critical moment. Even if we are really surrounded by the Jiang family, I have a way to escape and I promise not to be a burden to you."

After that, the two smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding and trust were silently conveyed at this moment. Then, they separated and headed towards the Jiang family, ready to bring an unprecedented shock to this family again.

The atmosphere in the Jiang family mansion was so heavy that it almost froze. Every breath of air seemed to carry a heavy pressure. The faces of the clan members were full of tension and anxiety, and their eyes flashed with fear and uneasiness from time to time.

They either held their weapons tightly or pressed against the wall, their muscles tense, as if ready to deal with unknown threats at any time.

This state of high mental tension has lasted for a whole hour. Even for experienced warriors, it is a great test. The physical exhaustion and mental tension make them feel exhausted.

The surroundings were quiet, with only the occasional heavy breathing and the sound of weapons colliding, breaking the dead silence. However, just when the repression reached its peak and everyone was about to reach their psychological limit and relax, something unexpected happened.

A tiny crack appeared in the void without any warning, and then a dazzling fire suddenly shot out from the crack like an angry dragon emerging from the sea, cutting through the night sky and rushing towards the Jiang family with destructive force.

The flames contained scorching heat and violent energy, as if they could devour everything and reduce it to nothing.

There was a loud bang, deafening, and the flames instantly came into contact with the buildings, trees and even the people in the Jiang family's territory, causing an earth-shattering explosion.

Wherever the fire passed, everything was destroyed. There was only billowing smoke and raging flames, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of burnt and blood.

In the face of this sudden disaster, even the warriors with the fastest reactions could hardly escape this fatal blow. More than a dozen figures struggled in the flames for a moment before turning into ashes and disappearing into nothingness.

"Ah——!" Jiang Lianheng witnessed this scene with his eyes wide open and roared heart-wrenchingly. He waved the sword in his hand angrily but could only point it weakly at the sky. There was nothing there except blazing flames and diffuse smoke.

"You bastard, Ling Xiao! You are a coward, come out and fight if you have the guts! Hiding in the dark and attacking, what kind of hero are you! How can we, the Jiang family, be afraid of a villain like you!"

His voice was filled with grief and helplessness, both hatred for the enemy and worry about the fate of the family. At this moment, he seemed no longer the high and mighty young master of the family, but an ordinary person filled with anger and despair.
