Chapter 12466
Chapter 12466
If it's just crickets chirping behind your back, you can brag about it however you want.
But in front of the Five Saints, none of them dared to utter such a word.
Especially since this is the most murderous Saint.
Stared at by the Killing Saint's cold eyes, Xia Haotian swallowed hard and forced himself to say, "Lord Killing Saint, please calm down. I misspoke just now, it was my fault."
"A slip of the tongue?"
The Killing Saint nodded, then suddenly waved his hand casually.
The next second, Xia Haotian's head slowly fell off, and in the blink of an eye, he was completely lifeless, dead beyond any doubt.
The powerful figures from all the prominent families felt their eyelids twitch violently, their faces filled with undisguised horror.
This is the head of the Xia family!
Even though their glory days are over, they were still a first-rate family. How could they just disappear so easily?
The Killing Saint said calmly, "If you can slip up with your mouth, then I can slip up with my hand. You two carry a message to the Xia family for me, and tell them to change their patriarch."
Everyone immediately responded in unison, no longer daring to harbor any suspicion.
If they could kill Xia Haotian so easily, they could also kill them so easily, and make each of their families change their heads.
Only at this moment did everyone finally recall the fear they had felt back then.
The Five Sages of the Aristocratic Families were chosen not through a simple vote, but through mutual agreement and mutual support.
They fought their way out of there!
Especially the first generation of the Five Saints, the most casualties were the masters of the major families.
Now that peace has prevailed for so long, they have all forgotten the fear of being dominated in the past.
The Killing Saint glanced at the entire audience: "We, the Five Saints of this generation, do not like killing, but that does not mean we will not kill. If anyone thinks they can take on the challenge, I welcome them anytime."
"We dare not, please forgive us for killing the Holy One."
Everyone immediately kowtowed to the ground, not daring to lift their heads even slightly.
If someone were to say something like, "You're holding your head too high," you'd be truly furious when you die.
Amidst their fear, everyone was also utterly shocked.
From their perspective, it's really incomprehensible.
The killing of the saints as a warning to others, if it was only aimed at their private collusion and the emergence of a united front against the five saints, while not entirely unreasonable, was still a bit too harsh.
Moreover, the feeling they got from killing the saint was not just a warning, but also a way to end the society.
Does the Emperor of the End really have that much influence?
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense. You know what to do next."
No one dared to utter a single unnecessary word, and they hurriedly sent messages to their respective subordinates.
Around the headquarters of the Termination Society.
Those powerful family experts who had been hiding among the crowd, ready to make their move at any moment, immediately retreated upon receiving the order.
This scene naturally did not escape Lin Yi's notice.
Li Tianguo and the others were all surprised.
No one understands the ways of these aristocratic families better than them. To create such a grand spectacle requires a tremendous amount of resources and effort, especially considering the risk of being purged by the Five Saints of the aristocratic families.
Open the bow without turning back the arrow.
They must recover from this blow; they will not give up easily!
How could it suddenly quit on its own?
Lin Yi was well aware of this.
The Demon-Slaying Squad's intimidating presence is undeniable; the Five Saints of the Aristocratic Families, if they don't want to completely sever ties, would never rashly attack them.
Even if they were to actually take action, they would never resort to manipulating the public.
They knew very well that this approach might be useful against ordinary experts, but using it against a four-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect expert was pure comedy.
Moreover, according to Liu Aozhi, the current focus of the Five Saints of the Aristocratic Family is the quota for the Three-Zhang Dharma Image.
It's impossible to create unnecessary complications at this time.
With the powerful figures from the aristocratic families backing down, Ji Ruxin, the core initiator of this public opinion offensive, was immediately put in an awkward position.
She is indeed a saint.
But she herself was well aware that without the help of powerful families, the chances of her leading this group of people to succeed were very slim.
"Justice will prevail!"
Ji Ruxin shouted slogans to boost morale, then suddenly said loudly, "Brothers of the Termination Society, look at the people standing in front of you!"
"These are all your fellow villagers, your brothers and sisters, your relatives and friends!"
"Can you really bear to watch them suffer like this and remain indifferent?"
"Brothers of the End Society, justice will surely prevail over evil, and fairness can never yield to injustice!"
"If you are still upright people, make your choices and take action!"
After some incitement, quite a few people on the End Society actually responded.
Many of them were highly skilled individuals assigned to the first line of defense.
As a result, the defense line collapsed instantly.
Moreover, several core members of the Termination Committee are also echoing this sentiment internally.
"Miss Ji is right!"
"We must never forget our roots. Though we are in the Termination Society, our hearts are still those of Tianjun!"
"That's right! We can't just stand by and watch it go astray. As members of the Termination Society, we can't just watch it go astray. We have a responsibility to bring it back to the right path!"
The whole scene immediately descended into chaos.
The hearts of Lü Bukui and his companions sank to the bottom.
The situation is completely out of control.
The people who just spoke are all core members who have joined the track development team, and in theory, they are already a community of shared interests.
I never expected that even they would openly betray us!
Lin Yi watched this scene with great interest: "Miss Ji has made quite thorough preparations."
Ji Ruxin said with righteous indignation: "Emperor of the End, please don't misunderstand. I never resort to tricks and schemes, and justice never needs tricks and schemes. This is just the most natural thing: the will of the people."
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Just believe it yourself."
The sudden gathering of 100,000 people, the planting of so many spies within the End Council, and the cooperation of numerous powerful families all contributed to this success.
If someone hadn't made specific preparations beforehand, they would probably have been stunned by this whole series of punches.
However, now that the experts from the powerful families have withdrawn, it means that the opposing side has directly lost its decisive military force and no longer has the capital to deliver the final blow.
Even so, it's more than enough to make a mess of the situation.
The other party's original intention was to overthrow the Termination Society and then incorporate it, but now that intention is destined to fail, and they can only settle for second best.
Lin Yi said in a low voice, "Miss Ji, if you want to turn this place into a mess and stuff mud into my crotch, your actions are rather despicable."
Ji Ruxin's eyes flickered, but then her expression hardened: "This is the process of justice!"
"The Emperor of the End thinks so badly of it, shouldn't he reflect on whether he's positioned himself wrongly and has stepped onto the opposite side of justice?"
Lin Yi found it amusing: "Trying to debate with me? Don't you realize that this is gambling with people's lives? Or do you think I'm a pushover who will always back down?"
