Half a step into the Heavenly King realm!
Upon seeing the sudden appearance of a person, Kaiyin's expression completely changed. Although he was proud of his strength, he knew that in front of someone at the Half-step Heavenly King realm, his own power was utterly inadequate.
This was a being only one level weaker than the Fallen Angel, someone who would undoubtedly be an Eight-winged Angel in their Bright Divine Hall.
Even though the Fallen Angel had instantly defeated Quik before, an Eight-winged Angel was still beyond his ability to handle.
"People of the Bright Divine Hall, you deserve to die!"
Lin Feng harbored no goodwill towards the Bright Divine Hall. He glanced at the members of the Bright Divine Hall and declared, "Show no mercy!"
"We obey Heavenly King Lin's command!!"
As Lin Feng's voice fell, the numerous experts from the Underworld Hall behind him struck out in unison. Wang Zhantian's expression was icy. Though he remained silent, his actions spoke volumes as he severely wounded a War God realm expert.
"Wang Zhantian, you dare touch me!"
Kaiyin spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at the rapidly approaching Wang Zhantian. However, with a hiss, blood splattered. Kaiyin, already heavily wounded by Lin Feng, had an arm severed by Wang Zhantian, bleeding profusely.
But Wang Zhantian clearly gave him no chance to catch his breath. "Touch you? What if I kill you!"
"For killing my own sister, I'll make your entire Bright Divine Hall pay with their lives!!"
Hiss~
In Kaiyin's disbelieving gaze, his throat was directly slit by Wang Zhantian's blade. With intense unwillingness, his consciousness dispersed, ending his life.
Kaiyin thus became the first Saint Envoy of the Dark Angels, one of the hidden forces of the Bright Papacy, to fall. And he would undoubtedly not be the last.
Several minutes later.
The cold wind howled. Wang Zhantian and Lin Feng stood in the field, breathing in the thick scent of blood. They looked towards the distant imperial capital's beautiful scenery, their clothes billowing as if moved by a breeze. "Xiao Feng, call me big brother from now on."
"Let the title of Military Lord be in the past."
Wang Zhantian sighed. "Also, let me tell you something. I will no longer be the Military Lord of the Imperial Capital soon. When it comes to avenging Yuyan, count me in."
"Hmm, this!?"
Hearing Wang Zhantian's words, Lin Feng couldn't help but look at him in surprise. "Big brother, you..."
Before Lin Feng could finish, Wang Zhantian raised his hand to stop him. "I have already consulted my father and the elders about this matter. In fact..."
As he spoke, Wang Zhantian reminisced, "Years ago, when Yuyan was attacked, I already wanted to abdicate. But at that time, the imperial capital was in turmoil and the situation was unstable. I simply couldn't find a suitable successor, so I couldn't seek revenge with all my might. Now, Long Aotian has all the capabilities to be the Military Lord of the Imperial Capital. Handing it over to him will be a form of liberation for me."
"Speaking of which..."
"Whether for public or private reasons, I must thank Ye Xuan. Otherwise, even if I knew the killer, I'm afraid I would have been powerless."
At this point, the gratitude in Wang Zhantian's eyes was unreserved.
"Xiao Feng, I have one more thing."
Wang Zhantian pondered for a moment, a look of resolve appearing in his eyes.
"Please, big brother, tell me."
Lin Feng, hearing Wang Zhantian's suddenly solemn tone, also became more attentive.
"It's like this."
Wang Zhantian continued, his eyes gleaming. "I wonder if your Underworld Hall is short-handed. If possible, I'd like to..."
"Join the Underworld Hall!!"
Boom!!!
Hearing Wang Zhantian's words, Lin Feng's pupils suddenly constricted. "Big brother, are you... sure!?"
"Hahaha, of course!"
Wang Zhantian laughed heartily, waving his hand. "After stepping down as the Military Lord of the Imperial Capital, my mission is to avenge Yuyan. I can't let you bear the burden of Yuyan's revenge alone while my Wang family stands by!"
"Although father hasn't said it, if he knew, he would certainly be comforted."
"This matter... is of great importance, I still need to contact the Hall Master."
Lin Feng took a deep breath, calming his emotions, and then directly dialed Hall Master Ye Xuan's number.
"Hello, Hall Master."
"I have something I need to report to you, about the Military Lord of the Imperial Capital..."
"Okay, really!"
"I understand!!"
A moment later, Lin Feng hung up the phone, a slight smile playing on his lips. He then took a deep breath and looked at his big brother, Wang Zhantian, who rarely showed a hint of nervousness and anticipation. Lin Feng then widened his smile. "The Hall Master said, if big brother truly has this intention, from today onwards, you will be the fifth Heavenly King of the Underworld Hall!"
"En!"
"The fifth Heavenly King, that sounds quite good, hehe... From now on, won't I be the War Heavenly King of the Underworld Hall?"
Wang Zhantian had to admit, he was a bit excited at this moment. Not for any other reason, but because if he were in the Underworld Hall, he could confront the Bright Divine Hall as quickly as possible. "I want to see what kind of monstrous forces are behind the Bright Divine Hall!"
"Big brother, you... should think it through carefully."
Lin Feng saw Wang Zhantian's expression and reminded him, as this was no trivial matter.
"Don't worry, no need to consider. I know the importance of this."
The two spoke for a long time. Lin Feng then led his team away, leaving the stunned experts of the Imperial Capital's War Department looking at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock.
Who am I? Where am I?
What did they just hear? Their Military Lord was going to step down, and he was going to join the Underworld Hall? This... it was madness! What earth-shattering secret had they stumbled upon?
Wang Zhantian, however, didn't seem to have much to say about it.
He glanced at the shocked crowd. "You all heard. From now on, I am no longer your Military Lord. Your new Military Lord will be Long Aotian, and he will also be the fifth Heavenly King of the Underworld Hall."
"Now, I need to offer a token of allegiance to the Underworld Hall. Let's destroy the Song family of the Imperial Capital!"
"Are you willing to go with me?"
Destroy the Song family!!!
Hearing this audacious plan, thousands of War Department experts were simultaneously shocked. But then, they all bowed. "We are willing!"
"We are willing to see our Military Lord off with this!"
The imposing aura of thousands of experts surged around them, their resounding shouts scattering the clouds in the sky.
"Very good!"
Hearing the unified shouts of thousands of people, Wang Zhantian felt a surge of emotion. A large portion of these people were his old subordinates who had followed him through thick and thin for many years. This would likely be their last mission together.
Therefore, even though the Song family was already in ruins, they would still give their all!
"Let's go!!!"
With a wave of his hand, Wang Zhantian took the lead, charging towards the Song family manor in the Imperial Capital. This time, their objective was to uproot the lineage of Song Mingxuan and his son!
Meanwhile, Song Mingxuan and his son of the Song family were unaware that their lives were rapidly entering their final countdown. Song Tian would never know that his schemes were as transparent as glass to someone like Wang Zhantian, and the Song family's destruction was imminent.
