Chapter 14429 You guys... Keep it up...

Ling Xiao also slowly shook his head, the action carrying a hint of disdain and stubbornness, his tone clearly laced with sarcasm, as if mocking the naivety of the Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord: "No, I have never underestimated you."

On the contrary, I know better than anyone that your Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary is very strong, stronger than imagined, extremely strong, far exceeding the limits I can currently contend with.

You have a profound foundation, numerous experts, and a multitude of magical treasures; your strength is far beyond what I can currently contend with.

but……"

He paused abruptly, as if he had suddenly realized something crucial. His gaze, like two sharp swords, was fixed on Tianyuan Saint Master, his eyes filled with inquiry and doubt. He asked the question that had been nagging at him: "What I don't understand is why you are so determined to target her."
Logically speaking, isn't your goal that legendary treasure?
That treasure is said to possess the power to change the world; if you obtain it, the hegemony of your Heavenly Abyss Holy Hall will be just around the corner.

Furthermore, haven't you always wanted to devour the origin of the Overlord Empire in order to strengthen your own power?
She has always ignored external conflicts, quietly staying in her own world, never actively provoking you, and seemingly unrelated to your goals. Why are you so fixated on her?

The Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord looked at Ling Xiao with a superior and condescending gaze, as if looking at an unenlightened child. His eyes seemed to say, "You don't understand the cruelty of this world yet."

He spoke slowly, his voice deep and powerful: "Don't you understand even now?"
Ling Xiao, you yourself do not pose a real threat to the hegemony of my Tianyuan Holy Hall for the time being.

Although you have some potential, you are only just beginning to show your talent. Your threat lies in the future, and you need time to grow.

If given enough time, you might truly become a formidable rival to my Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary, but that's a matter for the future.

But the one behind you is different…”

His tone became serious, as if every word carried immense weight, and his eyes revealed deep apprehension: "Her very existence is an uncertain and enormous danger."

This danger, unlike yours, doesn't need time to brew; it's hidden right now, right before our eyes, like a sharp blade hanging over the head of my Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary, ready to fall at any moment and bring us utter destruction.

Without removing this thorn, I cannot be at ease, and my Heavenly Abyss Holy Hall army will find it difficult to truly conquer this world and completely control it.

do you understand? "

Ling Xiao's originally tense brows twitched slightly, as if pricked by something sharp. A strange expression appeared on his previously calm face, and his tone was a mix of self-deprecation and teasing: "I pose no threat?"

Those words really hurt.

"Thinking back on my journey, Ling Xiao, I've endured countless hardships and dangers, teetering on the brink of life and death. I thought that with my own efforts and talent, I could make a name for myself in this world. I never imagined that in your eyes, I would be so worthless, not even worthy of being a threat."

The Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord's face was calm as still water, his eyes without the slightest ripple, as if he were stating something perfectly ordinary: "It is not that I look down on you, but that is simply the truth."

Your potential is great, but that threat is like a seed buried deep in the soil, which may only take root, sprout, and grow into a towering tree in the distant future.

She is like a bomb with a lit fuse; her threat could explode at any moment, shattering the situation we have painstakingly built.

We must prioritize clearing away the obstacles in front of us; otherwise, everything will come to naught.

Ling Xiao slowly turned his gaze to Tianyuan Saint Lord, his eyes becoming somewhat complicated, like a deep lake, unfathomable, and even faintly carrying a trace of... pity.

He spoke softly, his voice tinged with a hint of probing: "Do you... really understand her strength?"

She is far more complex than you imagine; her power is unfathomable, like the vast universe. What you see is perhaps just the tip of the iceberg.

If you act rashly, you will likely pay a heavy price.

The Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord stood with his hands behind his back. Although his projected form was illusory, it still exuded endless majesty, like an unshakeable mountain.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and asked in return, "Then... do you really understand the strength of my Heavenly Abyss Sanctuary?"
My Tianyuan Holy Hall has accumulated over countless years, boasting numerous masters, a multitude of magical treasures, and even the mysterious inheritance of ancient secret techniques.

"Our power is enough to overturn this world; how can you say we cannot deal with her threat?"

Ling Xiao remained silent for a moment, his expression somewhat inscrutable, sometimes frowning, sometimes flashing his eyes, as if he were pondering something important.

In the end, he simply said, "Well then... good luck to you!"
I hope you can truly resolve all of this smoothly, just as you wish.

The voice was so calm and even, yet it seemed to contain endless profound meaning.

After saying that, he said no more, lightly touched the ground with his feet, and turned to leave like a lithe eagle.

That resolute figure seemed to declare to the world that he would not easily give in, and that he would brave any danger, even if it meant facing mountains of knives and seas of fire.

"Ling Xiao!"

The voice of the Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord rang out again, like a resounding bell, carrying a certainty of declaration, echoing in the air: "You know absolutely nothing about Heavenly Abyss, or the power possessed by my Heavenly Abyss Holy Temple!"

We have the ambition to control the world and the strength to crush everything.

Before long, you will despairingly realize how ignorant and ridiculous all your resistance and persistence are in the face of absolute power!

By then, you will deeply regret what you have done today!

Ling Xiao paused slightly as he left, his movement as if time had frozen in an instant, or as if he had hesitated briefly over some emotion in his heart.

He didn't turn around, but simply gazed silently at the endless sky, that deep and mysterious firmament, as if it held all the answers and unknowns of the world.

He took a deep breath and responded in a nonchalant yet meaningful tone:

"You guys... keep it up."

These four simple words, spoken by him, seemed to carry an immense weight.

His tone contained mockery of the challenges Tianyuan Temple was about to face, indifference to the final outcome of the conflict, and a sense of acceptance of the unknown fate.

It was as if, in his eyes, all of this was nothing more than an insignificant farce, and he was merely a passerby in this farce.

As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling light flashed by, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky or lightning tearing through the darkness.

His figure had disappeared into the vast sea of ​​stars, leaving only emptiness and silence.
