Chapter 14300 Eradication
General Chen snorted coldly, a slight upturn of his lips revealing a hint of disdain, and shook his head, saying, "Of course I know what I'm talking about. The Holy Temple is powerful and simply cannot be confronted by the Overlord Empire."
Look at this battle, we suffered heavy losses, so many brothers lost their lives, and so many families were torn apart.
If it weren't for the Tyrant Emperor's insistence on making an enemy of the Holy Temple, how could we have suffered such a huge loss?
We could have lived a peaceful life in our secluded corner; why did we have to provoke such a powerful being?
Ji Mingkong stared directly at him without backing down, his eyes filled with anger and disdain: "General Chen!"
I respect you as a senior figure, highly respected in the empire, but please understand that what you are questioning at this moment is the very foundation of the Overlord Empire, a belief forged by countless predecessors with their blood and lives.
If you are unwilling to serve the Overlord Empire, you are free to leave, and we will not stop you.
Instead of colluding with the Abyss Sanctuary here, attempting to undermine the unity of the Empire and push it into an abyss of no return!
General Chen's expression changed several times. His originally rosy face turned as red as a pig's liver, as if he had been stung by the word "collusion".
A flicker of panic crossed his eyes, but it quickly hardened again, like a wild beast that had been provoked.
He stopped looking at Ji Mingkong and instead looked at the crowd in the room, his eyes filled with a seductive light, and said loudly, "Everyone!"
My Overlord Empire has a long history of thousands of years, and many talented people have emerged. How could it be without people?
This so-called Overlord Emperor has been neglecting affairs for years and knows very little about the actual situation of the empire, yet he wants us to work for him and fulfill his unrealistic ambitions.
Are you willing?
We should think about our own future, not blindly follow one person's orders and lead the empire into danger!
"I don't want to!"
Among the crowd, a burly man with a fierce face started shouting at the top of his lungs. His voice was like thunder, particularly jarring in the silent hall.
His face was filled with an almost manic excitement, as if he felt he had done something incredibly important.
Immediately afterwards, several people who were close to General Chen also chimed in, their voices rising and falling, echoing in the hall, trying to create a grand atmosphere.
Hearing the noisy commotion, Ling Xiao's lips curled up slightly, and he actually laughed.
But that smile was as cold as the winter wind, and his eyes were full of disdain and mockery, as if he were watching a group of fools directing and acting in an absurd farce.
Immediately, his expression hardened, a sharp killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he slowly waved his hand.
The movement seemed casual, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.
The moment he waved his hand, it seemed as if an invisible force surged within the hall.
Several extremely dim, almost blending-into-shadowy streaks of light flashed past from the corner of the main hall without warning!
The dark light was like a ghost, moving so fast that it was almost impossible to catch, leaving only faint afterimages.
laugh!
Sizzle... Immediately afterwards, several soft yet chilling sounds of sharp blades cutting through each other rang out. The sound was like a sharp blade slicing through soft silk, yet it carried a chilling coldness that made people shudder.
The next moment, time seemed to freeze.
The anger and doubt on General Chen's face froze instantly, his eyes wide open as if he couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.
A head shot into the sky, trailing a streak of blood, tracing a strange arc through the air.
Warm blood splattered on the smooth, jade-like ground, like strange red flowers in bloom, a shocking sight!
The men who were shouting along with him also met the same fate at almost the same time.
Their bodies lay limply in pools of blood, like rag dolls with their skeletons removed. Blood gushed from their wounds, quickly pooling into puddles on the ground.
The whole audience was shocked!
Everyone was shocked; their already tense nerves snapped completely at that moment.
They retreated, staggering as if something terrible was chasing them.
Fear and disbelief were written on everyone's faces. Their eyes were fixed on the headless corpse as it slowly fell, as if they had witnessed the most terrifying thing in the world.
Ling Xiao looked indifferently at the corpses scattered on the ground, his eyes showing no pity or emotion, as if those people were nothing more than a few insignificant ants.
He said coldly, "You seem to have misunderstood something. The Batian Empire exists because of me, not because of the Batian Empire!"
This Overlord Empire was founded by me, and it is through countless brothers fighting bloody battles that we have achieved today's glory.
You guys are really something, secretly colluding with the enemy and daring to rebel in front of me. Heh, do you really think my blade isn't sharp enough?
Do you still think I wouldn't dare kill you?
Those who took action were naturally the demon generals he had carefully cultivated.
These demon generals were elites he had painstakingly selected from thousands of people, using countless efforts and resources.
They have undergone brutal training and honing, and each of them possesses formidable strength and absolute loyalty.
The Thirteen Demon Generals have been restored.
After this period of training and growth, their strength has made a qualitative leap.
Moreover, even the weakest one has reached the peak of the Cangyue Realm, making him almost invincible among those of the same realm.
The strong ones, like Meng Haoqing, have already broken through to the Great Sun Realm.
The Great Sun Realm is a realm that countless cultivators dream of, possessing world-destroying power.
With his strength, he is enough to rank among the top in this Overlord Empire.
Killing a few good-for-nothings is a piece of cake for them.
It's as easy as crushing a few ants; it doesn't require much effort at all.
A sense of turmoil surged through everyone's hearts, and the feeling of immense shock overwhelmed them completely.
Their eyes widened, their faces filled with horror and disbelief, their mouths slightly open, but no sound came out.
They never expected that Ling Xiao had such a terrifying force hidden around him.
This force is like a giant beast hidden in the darkness, silent most of the time, but once it strikes, it is as powerful as thunder, catching people completely off guard.
Previously, the Water Tribe's Water Ghost Guard, which they had given to Ling Xiao, had already inspired awe in everyone.
Each of the Water Ghost Guards possessed unique skills, and their combat prowess in the water was astonishing. Like ghosts, they appeared and disappeared unpredictably, making them impossible to guard against.
But now it seems that this suddenly appearing force is even more terrifying than the Water Ghost Guard.
They were ruthless and incredibly fast, like death gods from hell, vanishing instantly wherever they went.
In the main hall, Ling Xiao's expression was cold and stern. He no longer looked at the bloodied corpse lying on the ground, as if it were nothing more than a pile of insignificant trash.
