Ling Tian Sword God-Chapter 597 - 595: The Crisis of the Saintess Hall_1

"An assortment of rabble, foolishly attempting to rebel against me, the Sect Leader."

Xie Zhiqiu seemed to have anticipated this incident. A sneer appeared on his face as he said, "Today, as I emerge from seclusion, my first major task is to slaughter that rabble. As for Xia Yunxin, I want to turn her into my female slave, serving me day and night. Everyone, immediately, right now, set off with me, without any delay. It's good that so many are present today. I'll show you all how I wipe out these ignorant rebels!"

Hearing these words, many changed their expressions, struck by his arrogant tone and overbearing behavior!

The Saintess Hall has deep roots. Even Sikong Yi in the past didn't attempt to annex the Saintess Hall. Yet, this Xie Zhiqiu talks openly about annihilating them and executing them; his ferocity is unparalleled.

He even wants to turn Saintess Xia Yunxin into a female slave. It seems Xie Zhiqiu's ambition is immense. It's impossible to gauge.

This isn't a joke, but an outrageous statement made in front of so many people. If Xie Zhiqiu fails to fulfill that, it will be like slapping his own face, which will inevitably lead to unrest among the people.

"Do you all find me overbearing?" Xie Zhiqiu looked around. "That's right. As the Sect Leader, and soon to be the most powerful leader of the Saint Witch Religion, my dignity cannot be violated. However, the Saintess Hall once defied me. That kid, Ling Chen, even nearly succeeded in his plot against me."

"This is exactly why the Saintess Hall is destined to perish. Let me be upfront: sooner or later, I will turn Ling Chen's head into a wine cup and hang his body from a tree for all of you to see the consequence of defying me."

When he arrived at the Saint Witch Religion this time, he had made all the necessary preparations. With his cultivation breaking through to the Sky Apex Realm, even if Ling Chen had inherited the legacy of the Red Sky Sword Saint, he would not be able to cultivate faster than him, who has successfully seized the body of a Saint to cultivate.

However, he didn't expect Ling Chen to not be within the Saint Witch Religion. But that doesn't matter. Once he has fully taken control of the Saint Witch Religion and unified the entire Demon Way, dealing with a lone wolf like Ling Chen should be a piece of cake.

He then turned his gaze to the Heartbroken Elder. "Very good, Heartbroken Elder, you've actually come to greet me. It seems you know how to adapt to the circumstances, a wise move that has spared your Sadness Hall from destruction."

Heartbroken Elder and the elders and deacons from Sadness Hall were all in an awkward situation, but they didn't dare to say much. Who dared to act against the domineering Xie Zhiqiu? Who dared to voice any defiance?

They just had to swallow their pride for the time being and submit to Xie Zhiqiu.

"Sect Leader, all the Demon Path Sects have assembled. Only Myriad Beasts Sect and a few of its affiliated sects have not come," the Black Holy Envoy reported to Xie Zhiqiu.

"The Elder of Myriad Beasts? Does this guy dare to overlook me?"

Xie Zhiqiu squinted his eyes. "Forget it, I have no time to deal with him right now. But his absence is an unforgivable offense. After annihilating the Saintess Hall, the Myriad Beasts Sect will be next. He is skilled at taming Exotic Beasts and can be of use to me. Once the Myriad Beasts Sect is annihilated, I will imprison him and have him breed Exotic Beasts for me."

HISS!

As soon as these words were spoken, many Demon Way Experts sucked in a breath. The Elder of Myriad Beasts was, after all, a prominent figure in the Demon Path. His qualifications were on par with Sikong Yi and certainly not inferior to Xia Yunxin. Yet, Xie Zhiqiu publicly announced his intention to capture the Elder of Myriad Beasts and force him to serve as a beast keeper. This was simply audacious, unabashed, and incredibly imprudent.

"Sect Leader, since your divine power is now at its peak, what are we waiting for? Let's go and wipe out the Saintess Hall now," Xuanjizi stepped forward, laughing, and said. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Good! Let's go to Saintess Peak then," Xie Zhiqiu said casually. "Since all the power of the Saintess Hall is assembled around Saintess Peak, we might as well wipe them all out in one go and settle things once and for all. Let's go, let's annihilate them together. Those who follow me will prosper; those who resist me will perish."

"Sect Leader, we are all here to witness your great achievements in eliminating the Saintess Hall," the Demon Elder stepped forward, smiling, and said. "According to our spies, the Saintess Hall has already set up a tightly knitted array formation around Saintess Peak, specifically to defend against your attack. Moreover, they seem to be waiting for some reinforcements."

"Reinforcements?" Xie Zhiqiu snorted. "No reinforcements can save them! In this small Five Kingdoms' Martial World, no one can be my opponent."

In terms of his cultivation, there are very few people across the entire Tianyuan Continent who can surpass him, let alone this tiny Five Kingdoms where there isn't even a single Saint. The so-called giants of the Martial World are like chickens and dogs in his eyes, hardly worth mentioning.

"I'll personally bring down the Saintess Hall and show you what a peerless method is. After that, all the Demon Path Sects must disband and join the Saint Witch Religion."

Upon hearing these words, the faces of many leaders of the Demon Path Sects changed slightly, their expressions unsightly. Even though their sects were small, they were still established decades or even centuries ago. Yet, surprisingly, Xie Zhiqiu's ambition was so immense that he intended to annex all Demonic Powers.

"Set off!"

Moving swiftly, Xie Zhiqiu landed on the back of one of the Skywind Hawks and rapidly soared into the sky.

"Set off immediately, flatten Saintess Hall!"

The Demon Way Experts at Skypiercing Peak shouted loudly one after another before rapidly taking off towards Saintess Hall.

In a massive surge, thousands of strong practitioners, like ants, rushed forward. The spectacle was terrifying.

「Saintess Peak.」

Under Xia Yunxin's arrangement, the entire Saintess Peak was heavily fortified. Around Saintess Hall, there were protective Array Formations left by Liu Xiling, so they only needed a little improvement to create solid defenses.

The towering Saintess Peak was enveloped by a solemn aura, protecting the mountain peak like a Golden Bell.

In the Saintess Hall, Xia Yunxin said to Elder Beiming and other key figures of Saintess Hall, "In a moment, everyone should perform their duties and stick to your positions. Relying on this Great Formation, we can hold our ground for at least several days."

"Hmm. Once the Great Formation is broken, all of us will be in danger. We must hold on no matter what," Elder Beiming commented.

Just as their words had barely left their lips, they were met with a sudden and deafening battle cry from outside.

"They're here!"

All the key figures of Saintess Hall tensed up.

Xie Zhiqiu, Black-robed, Xuanjizi, Demon Elder, and others arrived at the periphery of Saintess Peak.

"Indeed, they've already set up a tightly knitted array formation," Xuanjizi said solemnly.

Black-robed nodded. "Such a precise and sophisticated Great Formation can't possibly be set up by the current Saintess Hall. I suspect it's a legacy left by the previous Saintess, Liu Xiling."

"Liu Xiling? This could be a bit troublesome," the Demon Elder frowned.

"Is that so? In my eyes, it's nothing of consequence!" Xie Zhiqiu retorted with a cold smirk. Then, he launched his attack. An extremely cruel energy was released from his body, causing everyone around him to feel dizzy and disoriented.

With a mere swipe of his hand in the air, a huge bloody claw, tens of feet long and wide, materialized in front of Xie Zhiqiu and forcefully smashed onto the Great Formation, leaving five clear claw marks on the golden formation!
