Super Martial Era: My Little World

Chapter 388 Suppressing the Heavenly Demon Holy Cult
Inside the Demon Hall of Ten Thousand Demons Mountain of the Heavenly Demon Holy Cult.

"The sect leader has fallen! According to the sect rules, I shall assume the position of sect leader. Do any of you elders have any objections?"

A tall, handsome young man sat in the main seat, looking down at the eight elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect below, and slowly spoke.

The young man's name was Zhang Ping, and he was the vice leader of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect.

Second Elder Leng Nandao coldly said, "Zhang Ping, according to the sect rules, after the sect leader's death, you are only temporarily assuming the position! The sect leader needs to be elected by our elders' council, and as the vice sect leader, you only have one vote!"

The position of leader of the Heavenly Demon Holy Cult signifies immense power and vast resources.

Shen Baimo only advanced to the Human Immortal realm after becoming the leader of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect, thanks to the sect's resources. Most of the elders who competed with him for the leader's position have since turned into piles of bones.

Sixth Elder Feng Zhiyun said calmly, "Second Elder, the position of sect leader should not remain vacant for too long. Since you do not agree to Zhang Ping taking over as sect leader, who do you prefer?"

Leng Nandao declared resolutely, "The selection of the worthy should not be based on kinship! I believe the position of sect leader is rightfully mine!"

Grand Elder Zhong Liyang said calmly, "What a coincidence! I also believe that the position of sect leader is rightfully mine!"

"Stop arguing, everyone! I'll take over the position of sect leader. Who agrees? Who disagrees?"

A calm voice rang out, and Yang Lie appeared in the Demon Hall like a ghost, looking at the high-ranking members of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect present and smiling slightly.

"How dare you trespass on my Heavenly Demon Holy Sect! Die!"

Eight experts from the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect, all possessing the cultivation of Martial Saints, flew out from various corners, unleashing their sword energy to stab at Yang Lie.

Yang Lie said calmly, "The Heavenly Demon Holy Sect does indeed have many loyal followers, but their strength is too weak!"

A terrifying pressure at the level of a human immortal emanated from Yang Lie's body, instantly shattering the eight sword energies. The eight Martial Saints were rendered immobile, as if they were insects frozen in amber.

Yang Lie flicked his finger, and a ripple enveloped the eight Martial Saints. Their heads instantly exploded, turning them into eight headless corpses that fell to the ground.

"Yang Lie, the true disciple of Xianwai Tower!!"

Zhang Ping's face was extremely grim as he spoke each word clearly.

The faces of the eight elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect present turned deathly pale instantly, their eyes flashing with despair.

Human Immortals are terrifyingly powerful and are not even the same species as Great Martial Gods. Unless those Great Martial Gods possess various heaven-defying forbidden artifacts, they have only a tiny chance of defeating a Human Immortal.

Yang Lie smiled slightly and said, "Shen Baimo is dead! Before he passed away, he asked me to take over the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect. I'll ask you one more time, who agrees and who disagrees?"

"Senior Yang, you must be joking..."

The moment Zhang Ping opened his mouth, a sword aura shattered his head. His headless corpse shuddered, fell to the ground, and died.

Yang Lie smiled slightly, sat down in the seat Zhang Ping had previously occupied, and looked at the other eight elders, saying, "Answer me, or die!"

Eighth Elder He Fengyun roared, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, "Yang Lie, the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect is not yours! If an outsider like you tries to forcibly seize my Heavenly Demon Holy Sect, tens of millions of my followers will not agree!"

With a flash of sword light, He Fengyun's head exploded, turning him into a corpse that fell to the ground.

Yang Lie smiled and said, "If tens of millions of believers disagree, then just kill them all, right? What do you say?" "The Lord is right! I support the great Lord Yang Lie as the new Lord of our Heavenly Demon Holy Sect! May the Lord enjoy eternal happiness and live as long as the heavens!"

Leng Nandao suddenly stood up from his seat, then knelt heavily on the ground and bowed deeply, shouting loudly.

The Heavenly Demon Holy Sect is a demonic sect where the strong prey on the weak. Without a powerful background and the ability to humble oneself, it is impossible to rise to the top.

'That spineless coward!! He actually bowed down before me! How despicable!'

Zhong Liyang immediately stood up, knelt heavily on the ground, kowtowed deeply, and shouted loudly, "I firmly support the rule of the Sect Leader! The Sect Leader will surely enjoy eternal bliss, ascend to the Golden Immortal realm, be invincible, and unify the world!!"

"May our Lord enjoy eternal bliss, be invincible under heaven, and unify the universe!!"

The other five elders also prostrated themselves on the ground and shouted loudly.

Of the eight elders, He Fengyun was the most upright and had the most volatile temper. The other seven understood the principle that those who are discerning in times of need are wise, and they were able to bend and stretch, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Yang Lie smiled slightly and said, "Since that's the case, hand over all the immortal artifacts you have!"

The Heavenly Demon Holy Sect possesses an incredibly profound foundation, boasting numerous treasures of celestial artifact level. Among them, the most precious is the Heavenly Demon Holy Sword, followed by the Myriad Bones Demon Sword, another celestial artifact of that caliber.

The vice leader and eight elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect each wielded a demonic weapon of celestial grade. Of course, their power was far inferior to that of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sword.

"Yes! Your Excellency, please accept this! This is my immortal artifact, the Primordial Yin White Bone Sword!"

Zhong Liyang decisively handed a bone demon sword to Yang Lie.

The other six elders also offered up their own immortal artifacts.

Zhong Liyang and his companions knew that if the seven of them joined forces and fought to the death, they would only slightly injure Yang Lie, while they would all perish here. After all, even Shen Baimo, who wielded the Heavenly Demon Holy Sword, had died tragically at Yang Lie's hands; they had absolutely no chance of winning.

Yang Lie looked at Zhong Liyang and the other seven elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect and smiled slightly, "Not bad! Since you are so sensible, I will spare your lives! Remember to serve me well!"

The Heavenly Demon Cult was an immense and well-informed force, possessing vast resources. By subduing the Heavenly Demon Cult, Yang Lie established a powerful foundation in this world.

Of course, Yang Lie knew that the seven elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect had only temporarily submitted to his fierce power and could retaliate at any time. However, as long as he advanced to the Earth Immortal realm, or even the Heavenly Immortal realm, without revealing any flaws, then these seven elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect would obediently work for him.

"Alright! Now I'm going to send those mad immortals in my sect on their way! You may all step back!"

Yang Lie smiled slightly, then turned and left.

The seven elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect finally breathed a sigh of relief, exchanging glances without speaking to each other. They were all masters of scheming and intrigue, and naturally dared not confide in the other elders, for being betrayed would only lead to their deaths.

Zhong Liyang said, "Now that a new leader has been chosen, let's announce it as soon as possible!"

Leng Nandao smiled slightly and said, "That's right! Zhang Ping, Shen Baimo, and He Fengyun are all enemies of the sect leader. We should eliminate their forces as soon as possible to relieve the sect leader's worries!"

"good idea!"

The other elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Sect all agreed. By joining forces to eliminate the three's forces, they could both befriend Yang Lie and expand their own influence.
