Haotian didn't say anything more, and the scene fell silent again.
The only difference is that the power Haotian has accumulated has reached a terrifying level.
Cheng Yao was once again in a frenzy: It's over, it's over, it's over! Is the Human King going to wipe out all seven of us? Heavens, that damned Jian Que, you're the one who deserves to die the most here, why did you have to drag me down with you? I, I, Cheng Yao, will hate your Sword Domain for the rest of my life.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but Cheng Yao felt as if her soul had floated out of her body, and she was so scared that she almost died.
"You guys, why did you agree so quickly all of a sudden? Are you afraid of me, or are you saying one thing to my face and another behind my back?"
The seven people were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat.
Cheng Yao immediately cupped her hands and said, "Your Highness, how could that be? I am willing to swear an oath to Heaven for what I have said. If I break it, may my Dao heart collapse and my cultivation dissipate."
Haotian looked at Cheng Yao and saw that she had made a vow to Heaven, and that she would absolutely agree with and abide by what the Human King's Palace had said.
Then he slowly shifted his gaze to the other people.
Standing behind Haotian, Xiaoqi looked at that white figure and felt like she was about to burst into tears.
She has endured far too much.
The original Xiao Qi would only stand behind his older brothers, hiding from danger, without any strength or presence.
Until the rebellion instigated by the second-in-command of the Sword Domain brought the Human King Palace to the brink of destruction, the Soul-Burning Sword she obtained from her teacher began to tempt her to kill relentlessly, like a demonic chant.
She had to change, transforming from a weak little lamb into a fierce and ruthless wolf. If anyone dared to bully the Human King's Palace, she would bite them with her sword, frightening them until the Human King's Palace could regain its footing.
She did indeed succeed. Perhaps the prestige of the Human King had not dissipated too much, and many people gave face to the Human King's Palace, but there were also those who did not.
Looking at her stunning back view, Xiaoqi sighed that only when she was behind her could she feel truly at ease and relaxed.
"Do you guys have anything else to say? If not, then let's call it a day. It's almost 1 a.m., and we still need to celebrate my holiday properly during the day."
With this, and with Haotian's permission, the council meeting came to an end.
As everyone bowed to Haotian in farewell, Haotian watched quietly.
When Jian Que of the Sword Domain wanted to get up.
"Did I allow you to get up...? Sword Domain."
An immense pressure suddenly pressed down on Jian Que. Upon seeing this, the others had no intention of staying to watch the show. They hurriedly said goodbye and returned to their rooms outside.
Jian Que felt as if he were carrying a mountain on his back, and even his sharp sword intent and swordsmanship were suppressed.
However, this was merely a glance from Haotian.
"Sword Defect is guilty and is willing to atone with his death. I hope the King will spare the innocent people of the Sword Domain lineage."
After Jian Que finished speaking, he reached out to draw his sword.
However, before his hand could even touch it, he instantly felt the pressure emanating from the Dao body rise to another level, a level that made it difficult for him to breathe.
That once melodious voice had now turned icy cold.
"If you try to touch that sword again, I guarantee that any evil person in the Sword Domain will surely die."
Jian Que might be able to hide something from Xiao Qi, but he couldn't do so from Hao Tian.
He doesn't have that ability.
He was an insider of what happened back then, knowing full well that the people of his Sword Domain were the masterminds behind the traitorous plot, yet he did nothing.
All his caution at that time was exposed to Haotian's eyes...
They wanted to test whether the Human King of the Human King Palace still existed, to weaken the Human King Palace's strength, and to use it as a whetstone in an attempt to challenge the First Line of Heaven and break through to a new realm.
Fear, suspicion, cruelty, disregard for the people, and a swordsman whose heart is only for his own way of the sword...
Upper-ranking immortals, true immortals, and the like.
If Haotian hadn't been able to reclaim these powers, his only options would have been to kill him or severely injure him.
Xiaoqi, observing the situation from the side, finally understood.
Jian Que must have known about this at the time, otherwise her teacher wouldn't have treated her that way. In this sky, no human could fool their teacher.
Thinking back to the horrific situation at the time, she already harbored a hidden desire to kill Jian Que.
Sword Fragment, however, has been awaiting judgment from the Human King.
After kneeling there for an unknown amount of time, an incomparably majestic voice rang out…
"Jian Que, formerly known as Jian Wuque, knowing the truth but failing to report it, condoned the persecution of our human race by traitors and alien races, all for the sake of peace of mind and the way of the sword... Today, now that I have returned, I will punish you... strip you of your way of the sword."
Upon hearing this, Jian Que hurriedly raised his head and immediately reached for his sword hilt.
However, a flash of golden light appeared, and Jian Que collapsed to the ground, his sword broken into several pieces.
Haotian broke more than just his sword.
It still has his swordsmanship, his understanding of the sword, his sword intent, and his body's various muscular reactions to the sword.
After all that was done, there were now only two people left: Haotian and Xiaoqi.
Xiao Qi couldn't resist wanting to throw herself into Haotian's arms.
However, Haotian held his head down.
“How old is he? I can’t carry him anymore. Go away and take this kid back to the Sword Domain.”
After saying that, Haotian walked towards the door...
Xiao Qi was left alone, pouting as she looked at Jian Que, who was lying unconscious on the ground.
Sword Defect, Sword Defect, for the sake of the sword path, not only have you lost your eyes, but also your mind. You deserve it, you deserve it.
The moment Haotian stepped out, he witnessed an absolutely shocking scene.
A mature, black-haired woman lay arrogantly on the sofa, while a delicate, green-clad elf was giving her a tender back massage.
She was surrounded by many rare and precious treasures, and people were lining up to give her things.
The group of people who walked out of the council were also queuing up. Among them, Cheng Yao's eyes were filled with despair and helplessness. She stared blankly in the direction of Xiao Hei, her hands clasped blankly at Chen Xi, who also had a blank expression.
Without even thinking, it's obvious at a glance that the dragon has started again.
One of the dragon's greatest hobbies is accumulating wealth.
She must have just threatened and coerced them, then used a little bit of logic to make everyone present 'willingly' give her these rare treasures.
Haotian walked straight to Xiao Hei with a blank expression. Along the way, everyone who saw her was instantly stunned.
She took Xiao Hei's hand directly, and the next moment, they disappeared from the scene.
Along with them, Linglong, Diefang, and the others also disappeared.
Everyone present was stunned for a long, long time, by that fleeting, dreamlike sight.
Xiao Qi also came out, dragging one leg. When she saw the pile of rare treasures that had accumulated into a small mountain, her eyes curved into crescents.
"Don't stop, keep going, I'll hand these over to Lord Black Dragon later."
