Chapter 2676 - 2679: Stirring Chaos in Thunder City, Annihilating the Volcano Tower Master

"Everyone from the Volcano Tower, I've already killed Green Thunder General, why not bring out the person behind you as well."

Having killed Green Thunder General, Ling Xiao coldly looked at the Volcano Tower's Grand Master and Second Master, eyes filled with murderous intent.

No one could believe what they were seeing.

The Thunder Corps, they were the most elite corps of the Chen Dynasty.

Green Thunder General, ranked third among the seven great generals.

Just killed like that?

And it was done on his own turf, killed in a single move.

In the end, not even a complete corpse was left.

The whole process took just a breath or two.

This scene will surely become an unforgettable nightmare for everyone present.

Volcano Tower's Grand Master and Second Master looked utterly grim.

Green Thunder General's strength was superior to the Second Master, although inferior to the Grand Master, his combat prowess was rich.

And yet he was killed in one strike.

The Grand Master felt a chill creep into his heart.

"You're not Ling Xiao! You can't be Ling Xiao! Ling Xiao doesn't have the power to so easily kill Green Thunder General!

Who exactly are you?

Forget it, it doesn't matter who you are, I can tell you, our backing is the Fourteenth Prince, along with a group of royal ancestors.

Those people, you've never seen them, they've never shown themselves either.

But their power far exceeds that of Thunder Venerate and the Fourteenth Prince.

If you offend them, you will definitely have no way out..."

"Are you afraid?"

Ling Xiao glanced at the Grand Master and Second Master with disdain.

His figure suddenly flickered.

Using Wolf Travel Thousand Miles, his body directly pierced through the Second Master.

The Second Master didn't even have time to utter any unnecessary words before being tossed into the air, letting out the most terrifying scream of his life.

Afterward, his body completely turned into a pool of blood, splattering over the Volcano Tower.

Just like Green Thunder General, he left no complete corpse.

The reason for striking down the Second Master was, of course, because Ling Xiao had absolute confidence.

The Second Master's strength was not like the Grand Master, not even like Green Thunder General; killing him was extremely easy.

"I don't care who is behind you, as long as you deceive me, betray me, you will have no good end."

Ling Xiao's voice was cold and scornful.

"Damn it, do you really think this Master will fear you?"

Seeing the Second Master die miserably on the spot.

The Volcano Tower Master was enraged.

He thought himself stronger than Green Thunder General, and he might have a chance to win against Ling Xiao.

So he roared and pounced towards Ling Xiao.

However, this time, before he could approach Ling Xiao, suddenly a huge Golden Crow appeared above Ling Xiao's head.

The Golden Crow wielded its massive claws, mercilessly pinning the Grand Master to the ground.

Under the claws of the Golden Crow, the Grand Master was like a pitiable rabbit.

"No, don't kill me, please don't kill me, I will admit to anything you want!"

As the saying goes, "not shedding tears until seeing the coffin," this must be it.

Xiao Jin's sudden intervention left the Grand Master devoid of confidence, as fear and insecurity completely occupied his heart.

He now only wanted to live, to plead.

"Indeed, we betrayed you, we told the Demon Shadow Sect about you going to the Wisdom Sage King Mansion."

"Why tell them?"

Ling Xiao stared at the Volcano Tower Grand Master, his right eye suddenly emitting an eerie glow.

In that instant, the Grand Master became bewildered.

He just wanted to tell Ling Xiao everything he knew.

"Because the Great Steward of the Demon Shadow Sect in Thunder City is the Purple Thunder General, and Purple Thunder General supports the Fourteenth Prince to inherit the throne!

We guessed you might be that Ling Xiao, so we passed your information to them."

The Grand Master revealed everything he knew, word by word.

However, these words caused the spectators around to change their expressions dramatically.

"The Purple Thunder General of the Chen Dynasty's Thunder Corps, a royal member, actually colludes with the Demon Shadow Sect, and is the Great Steward of the Demon Shadow Sect in Thunder City?"

"Few organizations are recognized as evil paths in the Mysterious World, and the Demon Shadow Sect is undoubtedly one of them.

Specializing in consuming human blood to enhance their cultivation level, utterly wicked.

If it's like the Grand Master says, then Volcano Tower is finished, and so is the Chen Dynasty Royal Family!

They're treating the populace like fools."

"Just the thought of it is terrifying, the Demon Shadow Sect is wreaking havoc across the Chen Dynasty, while the royal family collaborates with them, even backing them as the masterminds.

Just thinking about it gives me chills."

"Indeed terrifying, the Chen Dynasty Royal Family could do something like this, if not for this young hero exposing these things, we'd still be ignorant."

"We absolutely cannot let the Chen Dynasty Royal Family continue like this, the royal family, however strong, needs the people's support; if they cannot bring Purple Thunder General to justice.

We will not agree."

"Let's go, to the Royal City for an explanation!"

Once the truth is exposed, martial artists care not whether you are royalty.

No matter how strong the royal family is, they cannot withstand public opinion.

Even the people of the Seven Great Families feel like they've been kept in the dark, a sense of distrust and crisis.

This led them, along with all the martial artists in Thunder City, to reach a tacit agreement.

Listening to these people's discussions, Ling Xiao sneered to himself.

This was indeed an unexpected delight.

He originally just wanted to stir up trouble in Thunder City, never expecting to stir such a hornet's nest.

Unless the royal family truly executes Purple Thunder General and pins all the blame on him.

Otherwise, not just Thunder City, but even the Chen Dynasty Royal Family wouldn't be able to continue.

The Seven Great Families united, with so many martial artists in the Chen Dynasty, the royal family is just a single tree that can't support the entire forest.

Ling Xiao only needed to stay behind these people, quietly watching the show.

Unlike Ling Xiao's delight, the Volcano Tower Grand Master was now utterly pale.

He knew very well that even if Ling Xiao didn't kill him today, for speaking so much of the truth, he would likely be killed by his masters.

But living meant having a chance to turn the tables.

At worst, the royal family issues an announcement, saying he was coerced and had no choice but to say those things.

All made-up lies.

Compared to an unknown wandering martial artist, more people would still trust the royal family.

Especially the Seven Great Families, who, even if there was a slim possibility, wouldn't want to fall out with the royal family.

Now the problem is to quickly report this matter to the Purple Thunder General and the Fourteenth Prince, letting them decide.

"What are you thinking? Whatever you plan to do, you have no chance!"

Ling Xiao coldly glanced at the Grand Master, then looked at Xiao Jin and said, "Devour his demon core; this guy is not human, but a volcanic rock spirit.

Devouring his demon core will aid your cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin directly tore open the Volcano Tower Grand Master's body, retrieved the demon beast crystal core inside, and swallowed it whole.

Though his cultivation level didn't break through, it made significant progress, moving much closer to the next level.
