God of Destruction Chapter 111: Ling Mei's First Step
Ling Mei stood on the balcony of her pavilion, gazing at the starry night sky. Her mind was filled with images of her meeting with Zhi Hao. His sharp words, his cold demeanor yet full of power, and his calculating gaze made her feel both intimidated and captivated."I have to do this," she muttered to herself, trying to gather her courage. Patriarch Ling had entrusted her with the task of approaching Zhi Hao and ensuring the success of the alliance.The following day, Ling Mei began preparing her first step. With the help of her personal maid, she decided to send a private invitation to Zhi Hao, asking him to meet her in the bamboo garden at the edge of Linggau City. The place was quiet and beautiful, far from the bustle of the clan—a location she hoped would make their conversation more personal.The message was delivered by a messenger of the Ling Clan and was received directly by one of the Black. Zhi Hao, who was reviewing documents about the Ling Clan's weaponry at his residence,
God of Destruction Chapter 112: Web of Intrigue and Preparation
On the other side, at the Ling Clan's residence, Patriarch Ling stood in front of a large window, gazing out at the tranquil garden below. His eyes were vacant, yet his mind was filled with plans and concerns. The sky, tinged with red, seemed to reflect the pressure he was feeling.Ling Mei approached with light steps, but there was tension in her expression. She carried a cup of tea for her father and placed it on the small table beside him."How was your meeting with Zhi Hao?" Patriarch Ling asked without turning, his voice low yet full of attention.Ling Mei sat in the chair near him, adjusting the folds of her long skirt before answering. "He’s clever and hard to read. But I feel he hasn’t completely closed himself off from our approach."Patriarch Ling chuckled softly, but there was no humor in his tone. "Of course. A man like Zhi Hao won't be easily trapped. He plays at a different level, and that makes him dangerous."He took a sip from his teacup, then continued, "However, tim
God of Destruction Chapter 113: Intrigue Behind the Shadows
The mysterious man unrolled another small scroll, revealing a document detailing secret transactions. The writing on the paper recorded the shipment of weapons and hidden agreements between the Grey Sky Sect and several small clans in the region. He grinned. "I got this from an informant in the black market. This is proof that the Grey Sky Sect has a contract to supply weapons to the Ling Clan and other clans. If this document reaches Zhi Hao, he'll definitely use it to expose the Ling Clan's betrayal."The younger man sitting across from him, still sharp but appearing less experienced, chuckled softly. "You're truly crafty. With this, Zhi Hao will shift his focus to destroying the Ling Clan while we remain in the shadows."The mysterious man nodded slowly, his eyes gleaming with the calculation of a well-thought-out plan. "And that’s just the beginning. If Zhi Hao and the Ling Clan destroy each other, we only need to wait for the right moment to swoop in and take what's left."The yo
God of Destruction Bab 114: Moves in the Shadows
The following day, Linggau City was shrouded in an invisible tension. Rumors of a potential conflict between the Ling Clan and the Huai Clan spread quickly, leaving merchants and ordinary citizens anxious about their safety. Behind the scenes, Zhi Hao continued to maneuver his pieces, unseen by anyone.In a secluded tea house at the edge of the city, Black 1 sat at one of the tables, conversing with a nervous informant."The Huai Clan has started deploying small forces along the border. They're preparing for something, but Patriarch Ling doesn't seem fully aware of it yet," the informant said in a low voice.Black 1 gave a slight nod. "Keep watching. Make sure we know their every move. Zhi Hao wants this information on time."The informant hurried away, leaving Black 1, who soon melted into the bustling market crowd. He knew Zhi Hao's next steps would be pivotal.Meanwhile, at the Ling Clan residence, Patriarch Ling felt pressure mounting from all sides. Reports about the Huai Clan's
God of Destruction Chapter 115: Shadows Behind the Chaos
The dark night enveloped Linggau City. In a luxurious inn on the outskirts, the mysterious man sat in a dimly lit room. Several documents were scattered on the table before him. He gazed at them calmly, lifting his teacup and taking a sip.A plain-looking man entered the room quietly and bowed respectfully. "Everything is going according to plan, sir. Zhi Hao continues to pressure the Ling and Huai Clans. Tensions between them are escalating."The mysterious man placed his cup down and nodded slowly. "Good. Has the document reached Zhi Hao?"The man nodded. "Yes, sir. An anonymous courier managed to slip it into one of his frequent haunts. He must have read it by now."The mysterious man smirked, his eyes gleaming coldly. "Zhi Hao will see it as a golden opportunity. He’ll use the document to humiliate the Ling Clan and possibly provoke direct conflict with the Gray Sky Sect. In the process, he’ll expend considerable resources and energy.""And if he succeeds?" the man asked cautiousl
God of Destruction Chapter 116: The Hunt Begins
That night, Zhi Hao prepared his next move. Calm and composed, he stood in a dimly lit room at his temporary base, illuminated only by the faint glow of a small lantern. Before him lay a map of Linggau City, marked with strategic annotations.Black 5 returned from his reconnaissance, bowing respectfully before speaking. "Master, the hooded man appears to have connections with the shadow group from the West. They’ve been using the teahouse on the city outskirts as a temporary meeting place, but their movements are swift and difficult to track."Zhi Hao didn’t respond immediately, his sharp gaze fixed on the map. "How many people did you see?""At least seven, including the hooded man. Four looked like seasoned mercenaries, while the other two seemed to be intermediaries or messengers."Zhi Hao nodded slowly, then shifted his gaze to a burly man standing in the corner—He Lian, one of his combat commanders. "He Lian, assemble the team. We begin the operation tonight."He Lian grinned bro
God of Destruction Chapter 117: The Hunt for the Eastern Shadow
The man in the black hood lay sprawled on the floor of the cave, his body trembling from the agony he had just endured. Black 5 stood beside him, twirling a small silver needle between his fingers, a cold smirk on his face.“You thought you could toy with my master and walk away unscathed?” Black 5 said in a low, menacing voice. He crouched down, slowly pressing the needle into the man’s shoulder, sending sharp pain coursing through his body.“Aaagh!” the hooded man screamed, his body arching in agony.Black 4 stood nearby, arms crossed, his expression unyielding. “You’ll talk eventually. We’ve got plenty of time. But for you, every second will feel like an eternity.”Zhi Hao stood a short distance away, his piercing gaze fixed on the man. He raised his hand slightly, signaling Black 5 to continue.Black 5 chuckled darkly. “You know this is just the beginning, right?” He pressed the needle into the man’s knee this time, twisting it slowly. “This pain won’t kill you, but you’ll wish it
God of Destruction Chapter 118: Traces Behind the Shadows
In mere seconds, they moved like shadows. Black 5 attacked the guard on the left with swift precision, striking his neck and causing him to collapse without making a sound. He Lian fired an arrow at the guard on the right, dropping him to the ground.Zhi Hao darted into the center of the camp, his sword gleaming as he slashed at a guard attempting to resist. “Don’t let anyone escape!” he shouted.A few guards tried to flee, but Black 3 and Black 5 intercepted them with ease. Within moments, the camp fell silent, leaving only one trembling man encircled at the center.Zhi Hao approached the man, his sharp gaze piercing through him. “Who sent you? What are you planning here?”The man shook his head, his body trembling in fear. “I... I’m just a guard... I don’t know anything!”Black 5, already losing patience, kicked the man, sending him sprawling to the ground. “Do you think we’ll believe that nonsense? Speak up before I break your arms!”The man sobbed in terror. “Alright! Alright! I’l

His eyes gleamed gold, his hair flowing wildly as raging energy surged around him.First Disciple, Ham Ra, narrowed his eyes. “So, you’ve truly taken over his body?”Qianlong stared at him sharply. “I had no choice. If I let you live any longer, this world will be destroyed sooner than it should be.”Ham Ra scoffed and raised his hands.

Xuan Ji shouted.Without hesitation, the three of them charged at once.BOOM!Tie Shan swung his giant sword from the front, creating a shockwave that shattered the ground around him.At the same time, Rin moved like a shadow, circling to Zhi Hao's left with incredible speed, her dagger aimed at his vital points.Meanwhile, Xuan Ji stayed at the back, forming a complex seal with his hands before unleashing the Deadly Shadow Technique—a dark energy attack capable of paralyzing an opponent instantly.Their coordination was flawless.There was no escape.But Zhi Hao simply stood still.Until—WHOOSH!In a fraction of a second before their attacks landed, Zhi Hao vanished.Tie Shan's eyes widened. “What—?

Yet, standing before them, Zhi Hao remained unmoved, his expression calm, as if completely unaffected.Tie Shan, impatient, stepped forward, swinging his massive sword into the ground with a thunderous boom. “I don’t care who you are!

Chapter 197: The Turning Point of Battle
Black 4 dropped to one knee, his sword embedded in the ground as his only support. His breaths were ragged, wounds multiplying across his body. Blood dripped onto the earth, mixing with dust and scattered leaves.Around him, enemies still stood. Some were wounded, some had fallen, but those remaining still far outnumbered what he could handle in his current state.The man in the purple robe stepped forward, his face filled with satisfaction. “Enough. You’ve lasted longer than I expected. But this is the end.”He raised his hand, giving the final signal. Several men prepared to lunge, their weapons gleaming under the moonlight.Black 4 exhaled. Was this really the end?But before the attack could land—WHOOSH!A shadow streaked through the air. A flash of silver sliced through the darkness, and in an instant—SLASH!Two men fell silently, blood spraying from their wounds.The purple-robed man’s eyes widened. “What—?”The figure landed in front of Black 4, standing tall with an aura tha

Explosions echoed through the forest. Trees trembled, leaves scattered, and the ground quaked from the overwhelming clash of energy.Black 4 stood amidst the swirling dust, his sword still vibrating from the force of his last attack. His breathing was slightly labored, but his eyes burned with determination. In front of him, the man in the purple robe remained standing, only having taken a slight step back.The man smirked. "You're strong. But... are you strong enough to survive alone?"Black 4 said nothing. He already knew the answer—because he truly was alone.Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, Zhi Hao sat silently in his headquarters. Ling Xue and Black 3 stood nearby, awaiting his orders. One thing was clear—no allies were coming to their aid.Ling Xue sighed. "They're all just watching."Black 3 clenched his fists. "Cowards. They're waiting until one side weakens before deciding who to support."Zhi Hao closed his eyes briefly, then gave a faint smile. "It doesn't matter.
Chapter 195: The Arrival of the Heaven-Shattering Codex Hunters
Night descended with a tense silence. The air felt heavier than usual, as if carrying an ominous premonition lurking within the darkness.Standing on his balcony, Zhi Hao gazed at the dimly shining moon. His sharp eyes reflected the swirling thoughts in his mind.Black 3 appeared behind him, speaking in a low voice. "They've made their move."Zhi Hao nodded slowly. "As expected. After today's incident in the arena, they can no longer afford to wait."Black 3 handed him a small piece of paper. "A message from Ling Xue. She has traced the individuals targeting the Heaven-Shattering Codex. They’ve entered the city in small groups, scattering to avoid drawing attention."Zhi Hao read the message and then folded it back. "They're careful, but they've overlooked one thing."Black 3 raised an eyebrow. "What's that?"Elsewhere, in a secluded inn at the city's outskirts, a group of figures sat around a wooden table. The flickering lantern light cast shifting shadows on the walls.At the center
Chapter 194: Chaos in the Arena
The midday sky stretched vast, thin clouds drifting lazily, while below, the Zhi family’s training arena bustled with dozens of people practicing. Some engaged in sparring duels, while others focused on breathing techniques to enhance their energy.Yet, amidst the seemingly ordinary atmosphere, tension slowly crept in.In the main stands, Zhi Hao sat calmly, accompanied by Black 3 and several elders. He observed the ongoing duels with a neutral expression, but his mind was working swiftly.“Any movements?” he asked quietly.Black 3 nodded. “Ling Xue successfully thwarted their kidnapping attempt last night. Black 4 also reported an encounter with a group of assassins at the border before managing to escape.”Zhi Hao tapped his chair’s armrest with his fingers, his gaze sharp. “They’re getting bolder.”Before Black 3 could respond, a loud noise suddenly echoed from the center of the arena.Boom!The ground trembled as one of the disciples was sent flying, landing harshly after being st
Chapter 193: Secrets Behind the Shadows
The sharp sound of swords slicing through the air echoed in the dark forest. The man in the purple robe felt a chilling presence as Black 4's blade neared his neck.However, just before the sword could strike, the robed man's body suddenly dissolved into shadows and vanished.Srak!Black 4’s blade sliced through nothing but empty air."Shadow techniques as well?!"Before he could react, a whisper came from behind him."You're fast, but I'm far more accustomed to the darkness."Black 4 immediately leaped forward, dodging a counterattack that nearly pierced his back. He twisted midair, landed on a tree trunk, and propelled himself back to the ground in a defensive stance.From within the shadows, the robed figure emerged once more, his eyes gleaming with intrigue."You're more interesting than I expected. I thought Shadow Fang only had ordinary assassins, but it seems I was mistaken."Black 4 remained silent, his eyes scanning for an opening.The man smirked. "Unfortunately, I don't hav
Chapter 192: Traces in the Darkness
Deep within the dark forest, Black 4 stood still, his sharp eyes scanning the hooded figures now surrounding him. Moonlight filtered through the gaps in the trees, glinting off the blade of his slowly unsheathed sword."You think you can stop me?" His voice was low but carried immense pressure.One of the hooded figures stepped forward. "You don’t have to struggle. Give us information about Zhi Hao, and we will spare your life."Black 4 smirked coldly. "You think I would betray the Young Master?"Without warning, he lunged forward, his sword slicing through the darkness. Srak! A sharp sound echoed as one of the hooded figures fell before they could react.The others immediately sprang into action, drawing their weapons. Some wielded daggers, while others unleashed energy attacks from a distance.Black 4 dodged nimbly, leaping back before twisting in mid-air. His sword danced, reflecting the moonlight as he swiftly took down another opponent.But just as he prepared for the next strike
