Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 14350 It’s all a misunderstanding
Water Trick!

The Water Demon of the Overlord Empire has made his move!

This was once a meticulously trained assassination squad of the aquatic tribe. Every member had undergone rigorous training and was skilled at concealing their presence and ruthless in their attacks, making them the best in the assassination world.

This unit had been hiding in the shadows, like a lurking viper, waiting for the best opportunity to strike.

Now, the Water King personally handed this elite force over to Ling Xiao, and at this crucial moment, it has proven invaluable.

They are like a sharp blade hidden in the darkness, delivering a fatal blow when the enemy is most relaxed.

This is not over yet!

Above the sky, the once peaceful space was suddenly distorted by a powerful force, as if an invisible hand had forcibly torn open a huge gash.

The edge of the opening shimmered with an eerie light, as if it were an entrance to another world.

From the crack, the bow of a massive, mountain-like warship slowly emerged.

The warship gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen, resembling a mobile steel fortress and exuding a chilling aura.

Then came the second, the third... one after another, warships emerged from the crack like giant beasts, lined up neatly and imposingly, as if they were going to occupy the entire sky.

Beneath the imposing warship, as if under a dark cloud, tens of thousands of warriors clad in standard silver armor appeared.

The uniformly styled spears or swords in their hands gleamed with a cold, sharp light under the sunlight, like the gaze of death itself.

These soldiers descended from the sky like divine warriors, their synchronized steps resembling the beating of war drums, each step carrying a powerful and awe-inspiring force.

They were arranged in neat, block-like formations, with the distance between each person perfectly measured, as if they had been measured with a ruler.

That overwhelming aura swept towards the members of the Blazing Fire Sect like a raging torrent.

Their auras merged into one, like a vast ocean, their military might overwhelming, completely suppressing the scattered auras of the more than two hundred members of the Blazing Fire Sect.

Faced with this powerful military might, the members of the Blazing Fire Sect were like candles flickering in the wind, teetering on the brink of collapse.

The elite forces of the Overlord Empire have arrived!

The leader was a woman dressed in silver female battle armor.

She moved with a graceful and sturdy air, like a pine tree standing firm against a strong wind, every movement exuding decisiveness and efficiency.

Her face was stunningly beautiful, like a plum blossom blooming in the snow, cold and noble, yet as cold as ice, making people afraid to look directly at her.

She held a long sword, its blade gleaming with a cold, eerie light, seemingly containing boundless killing intent. She was like a female war goddess descending upon the world, exuding an aura of dominance over all.

It was Ji Mingkong!
Upon seeing Ji Mingkong personally leading his army, a hint of surprise flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes.

That surprise was like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, fleeting in an instant, before turning into a faint smile, a smile carrying a hint of relief and approval.

The Batian Empire's army landed, their heavy footsteps sounding like the heartbeat of the earth, causing it to tremble.

Tens of thousands of soldiers moved in perfect unison, as if they were acting as one person.

They knelt on one knee facing Ling Xiao, their knees hitting the ground with a dull thud.

Immediately afterwards, they shouted in unison, their voices like rolling thunder, shaking the heavens:

"Greetings, Emperor Batian!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, their voices rolling like an invisible force, causing ripples to spread across the surrounding space, as if a boulder had been thrown into a calm lake.

This title "Overlord Emperor" is not just a name; it carries immense awe and loyalty, representing their absolute obedience and support for Ling Xiao, the Overlord Emperor.

Ling Xiao's gaze swept over the silver sea of ​​soldiers kneeling on one knee before him, his gaze as warm as the sun shining on every soldier.

He nodded slightly, his movements elegant and composed, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable power:
"Flat body."

"Thank you, Emperor Batian!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers rose up with a thunderous roar, their movements perfectly synchronized, like a single person, as if they were all well-trained and precise machines.

The moment he stood up, it was as if an invisible force surged into the sky, shaking the entire world.

Immediately, their icy gazes were all turned to the group of Blazing Fire Sect experts in the distance.

At this moment, the members of the Blazing Fire Sect had lost their previous arrogance. They were all panicked and their formation was in complete disarray. Under the sharp gaze of the soldiers of the Overlord Empire, they unconsciously shrank back.

The chilling killing intent spread out as if it were a tangible substance, like a layer of cold frost that froze the surrounding air.

The temperature in the air seemed to drop several degrees, making people shiver involuntarily.

As the terrifying military might and chilling killing intent swept over him, the sect leader of the Blazing Fire Sect, True Man Minghuo, felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to his head.

His face changed constantly, sometimes turning ashen, sometimes deathly pale, until finally turning ashen, like a piece of old paper that had been drained of its life force.

He suppressed the surging fear and anger in his heart, and with trembling hands, he cupped his hands towards Ling Xiao, the movement appearing extremely stiff and forced.

His voice was dry and hoarse, like rusty gears turning, as he tried to salvage the almost irreversible situation:
"Ling...Your Majesty the Overlord Emperor!"

"What happened today was all a misunderstanding!"

"Our Blazing Fire Sect was blind and ignorant, like a blind man walking in the night, who mistakenly trespassed into your territory and offended the might of the Overlord Empire!"

“I, Zong Yuan, wish to retreat immediately, like a frightened wild beast, slinking away from this place of trouble.”

"And we will offer a generous gift as an apology. That gift must be extremely rare and can demonstrate the sincerity of our sect."

"From now on, we'll keep to ourselves, you see..."

Before Ling Xiao could speak, Ji Mingkong, standing to the side, frowned slightly, her brows revealing wisdom and decisiveness.

She stepped forward, her steps light yet carrying an undeniable air of authority, and whispered:

"Emperor Batian, Mingkong believes that this place is not suitable for a prolonged battle, let alone an excessive entanglement."

"Although the Blazing Fire Sect suffered a setback at this moment, it is, after all, a local power that has been entrenched here for a long time and has a deep foundation."

“The Sanctuary is our real threat. It is like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.”

"If we get bogged down in a protracted war with the Blazing Fire Sect here, it will be like sinking into a bottomless quagmire. The more we struggle, the deeper we will sink. This could expose our strength and give the Holy Temple an opportunity to take advantage of us, which would only increase the variables and be detrimental to the overall situation."

She was considering the overall strategy of the Hegemon Empire, and every word was carefully thought out to avoid any unforeseen complications and to focus her energy on more important goals.

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible ripple appeared on Ling Xiao's usually calm face, and he remained silent for a moment.

The silence that followed was like the calm before a storm, making the atmosphere in the room even more oppressive.
