Chapter 13860 The Horror of the Demon Sea
Finally, the red-robed chief priest slowly bowed and performed a great salute.
His movements were stiff and slow, as if this simple action had consumed all his strength.
Upon seeing this, several other powerful men from the Holy Temple followed suit and bowed in greeting.
Then, the red-robed chief priest stood up and fixed his eyes on Ling Xiao, his eyes filled with warning and threat: "Don't forget the agreement between us!"
"If you dare to disobey, my temple will never let you go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared in an instant like a ghost, leaving only a faint breeze floating gently in the air.
Ling Xiao looked in the direction the other party left, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
He slowly turned around and said in a deep voice to the warriors of the Zubatian Empire: "This is by no means something to be proud of. On the contrary, it is our sorrow!"
His voice was low and sad, as if it was a cry from the bottom of his heart, "It's only because we are not strong enough that we can only kneel down."
"This kneeling is a humiliation to our Tyrant Empire and a blasphemy to the souls of those fallen heroes!"
He paused for a moment, and glanced at every warrior present, his eyes full of determination and resoluteness: "But I promise you here that one day, I will make them pay back the blood debt owed by the Holy Temple with interest!"
"I will make those who have hurt us pay a price ten or a hundred times more painful than this!"
"Before that day comes, we must endure hardships, practice hard, and constantly improve our strength."
"One day, we will make the Tyrant Empire stand tall on top of the world again, and make those who once looked down on us tremble in fear!"
When the warriors heard this, flames of hatred and hope ignited in their eyes.
They clenched their fists and let out deep roars, as if declaring their determination to the world.
In this land full of grief and hope, the Tyrant Empire is about to embark on a thorny yet extremely determined road to rise.
The warriors lined up neatly, all eyes focused on Ling Xiao.
They stand as tall as pine trees. Although they have experienced the baptism of war and have scars of varying depths on their bodies, their eyes are full of admiration and trust at this moment.
That gaze was like a blazing flame, burning with admiration and expectation for Ling Xiao.
They firmly believed that this heroic and imposing man before them would be able to do what he said and lead the Tyrant Empire to a bright future.
Ling Xiao was wearing a black suit and a cloak embroidered with golden cloud patterns, which fluttered in the wind.
He had a stern face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his eyes showed determination and courage.
He raised his head slightly, glanced at everyone, and said in a loud and steady voice: "If the Tyrant Empire wants to gain a foothold in this chaotic world, it must rely on you to practice hard."
"In this chaotic world, the strong prey on the weak, and strength is respected."
"Only if you continue to improve your strength can you survive in the cruel competition."
"Your future is the future of the Tyrant Empire!"
"If you are strong, the Tyrant Empire will be strong; if you prosper, the Tyrant Empire will prosper!"
As the emperor of the Tyrant Empire, he bears the heaviest responsibility for the rise and fall of the empire.
From the moment he took on this heavy responsibility, he was fully aware of the mission he was carrying.
For countless days and nights, he reviewed memorials under candlelight, devoting all his energy to the development of the empire; in countless battles, he led the charge, using his flesh and blood to build a solid line of defense for the empire.
He secretly made up his mind to lead the Tyrant Empire to glory, let the flag of the Tyrant Empire fly high on this continent, and let every citizen of the Tyrant Empire live a stable and prosperous life.
After everyone left, Chongtian quickly walked to Lingxiao's side.
Chongtian was dressed in white, with an elegant yet heroic temperament.
He frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Junior brother, do you know why the red-robed head priest gave in?"
"He has always been sinister and ruthless, and is not someone who compromises easily. It is really puzzling that he behaved so abnormally today."
Ling Xiao folded his hands across his chest, tilted his head slightly, and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he slowly said: "It is probably related to the Demon Sea."
"Now that the threat from the Demon Sea is approaching, all major forces are feeling unprecedented pressure."
“Although the Great Town Holy Hall is powerful, I’m afraid it will be powerless against the sea of demons.”
"The Red Robe Priest may have made this concession in the hope that he could use our strength to jointly deal with the crisis in the Demon Sea."
Chongtian nodded, his expression becoming increasingly serious.
He knew very well how terrifying the Demon Sea was. It was a sea area full of unknowns and dangers. Rumor had it that there were countless terrifying creatures hidden there. If one was not careful, one would end up in an irretrievable situation.
He said in a low voice: "Su Rou lowered her voice and said mysteriously that they are more eager to eliminate the great threat of the Demon Sea than to get rid of you."
"In their eyes, you are just a small problem. As long as the Tianyuan Holy Hall is willing to take action, you will definitely die. But the Demon Sea is different. It is the real concern of the Holy Hall."
“Once the Demon Sea erupts, the entire continent will fall into chaos, and the foundation of the Holy Temple will be shaken.”
"He knows in his heart that the Demon Sea is full of dangers. It is impossible to succeed relying on the Holy Temple and other forces alone."
"And you may be the key to his goal."
"After all, you are very powerful and have considerable influence in this chaotic world."
Ling Xiao smiled slightly, with a hint of curiosity and confidence in his smile.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Now that you mention it, I am even more interested. What is hidden in this sea of demons?"
"Is it really that scary? It can even make the great town cathedral so fearful."
"In my life, Ling Xiao has never been afraid of challenges. I want to personally venture into this sea of demons and find out whether it is a dragon's lair or a tiger's den."
Chongtian's face turned pale in an instant, as if he recalled something terrible.
His voice trembled slightly, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes: "No one can explain it clearly."
"Last time, a force formed a team to enter. That force was quite famous on the mainland, and there were many experts among them."
"They stepped into the Demon Sea with full confidence, but they didn't expect that they would never be able to return intact."
"In the end, only one person escaped. He was still mad and kept muttering 'taboo' and 'destruction'..."
"That scene is still horrifying when I think back on it."
"It is said that when the man was awake, he only said that there was endless darkness and terror inside, as if it was another world, full of evil power. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed up completely."
Ling Xiao listened to Chongtian's description, but there was no sign of retreat in his eyes. (End of this chapter)
