Chapter 1947: The Bright Church’s Counterattack

The death of Nolan Hiber signifies the official beginning of Xiao Zheng’s hunting operation.

After obtaining the fifteenth Golden Bone, he immediately headed to his next destination. Located 120 kilometers south of Barton City is Noban City, where a Saint Heir resides, who also possesses a Golden Bone.

This Saint Heir is named Leon Coleman, ranking 18th among the 26 Saint Heirs.

This rank isn’t very high, even somewhat low.

However, those who become Saint Heirs are not weak, let alone being closely guarded by the twelve Holy Temple Knights. Leon Coleman’s resistance is far more intense and bloodthirsty than Nolan Hiber’s.

At the first sign of Xiao Zheng’s attack, he led the temple’s experts in a counterattack.

Though these counterattacks are futile in the face of Xiao Zheng’s overwhelming strength, nonetheless, Leon Coleman left a strong impression on Xiao Zheng. At least this Saint Heir is more courageous than the three previous Saint Heirs who died by his hands, at the very least, he acts like a man.

After killing Leon Coleman, Xiao Zheng acquired the sixteenth Golden Bone from him.

However, he did not hastily implant this Golden Bone into himself but quickly rushed to the next location.

Because now, time is running out for Xiao Zheng.

As his hunting plan progresses, the people of the Bright Church will sooner or later receive news. If the Pope in the Holy Land of the Church responds and subsequently dispatches a vast number of experts to protect the remaining Saint Heirs, it will definitely pose a significant obstacle and uncertainty to his plan.

Thus, Xiao Zheng must kill all ten people on the list before the Bright Church reacts!

Leaving Noban City, he immediately headed to the next location.

The third person on the bloody list soon fell into his hands.

Then the fourth, the fifth...

Xiao Zheng seemed to be completely possessed, continually slaughtering across the European Continent. This frenzied slaughter, although it drained him greatly, undoubtedly yielded enormous gains.

In less than a day, seven people on the bloody list had already died by his hand!

By this time, the news had spread throughout all of Europe!

The world was once again shocked by Xiao Zheng’s insane actions!

In just under a day, killing seven Saint Heirs of the Bright Church, what on earth is he trying to achieve?

Upon hearing this, everyone had the same question in mind.

If they hadn’t been unable to find Xiao Zheng’s whereabouts, someone would have already tried to interview him...

On the other side.

Yacha Mountain Range, Holy Land of the Church.

Pope Charles was once again furious, his anger this time even more intense than before. The aura he released even shattered the Light God Throne!

The entire Yacha Mountain Range could feel his rage!

"Bastard!"

"Damn it!"

"Is our Church filled with nothing but useless idiots? From Arthur to Andrew, you’ve allowed an Oriental martial cultivator to kill eight Saint Heirs of our Church! You’ve completely disgraced the face of our Church!"

Pope Charles’s furious roars echoed in the temple.

Luckily, he didn’t know that Eric and Joshua had also died at Xiao Zheng’s hands, or he might have fainted from anger.

Beneath the shattered Light God Throne was a kneeling crowd.

Among them were Holy Temple Knights, red-robed Elders, as well as White Robed Elders and the Archbishop, all present here.

Faced with Charles’s interrogation, everyone couldn’t help but bury their heads deeply, feeling utterly ashamed.

In fact, they didn’t need Charles to blame them; they already felt humiliated.

After all, Europe had been under the rule of the Bright Church for so many years, and now it was like they had been slapped hard across the face by a Huaxia martial cultivator! The once-powerful Bright Church had become a laughingstock in Europe!

"Your Holiness! I request to personally lead the team to capture the Evil God Xiao Zheng!"

An Archbishop stepped forward from the crowd.

As an Archbishop, like Joshua who died by Xiao Zheng’s hand, he possessed Supreme Realm cultivation.

Upon hearing this, Charles coldly snorted and said, "Not just you, this is such a significant incident in our Church, none of you can escape responsibility! I’m now declaring, everyone is to depart immediately; this time, we must find the Evil God!"

"If we don’t kill him, our Bright Church will never wash away the disgrace he has brought upon us!"

Charles was genuinely enraged this time.

Since he became Pope, he had never felt such intense fury. This was undoubtedly the greatest humiliation the Bright Church had ever faced. As he had just said, if they don’t kill Xiao Zheng, this shame will haunt them forever.

But Xiao Zheng, with his unmatched prowess, having already killed nine Saint Heirs and one Archbishop, is he really so easy to deal with?

The crowd looked at Charles, still in a rage, filled with anxiety.

Though they weren’t optimistic about the plan, they ultimately chose to obey orders. If anyone dared to disobey at this moment, regardless of whether Xiao Zheng would eventually die, those who defied orders would certainly be doomed.

Thus, the experts of the Holy Land set off in a grand parade, marching towards various places on the European Continent!

Even though they hadn’t yet determined Xiao Zheng’s whereabouts and didn’t know who his next target was, it didn’t hinder their actions. The Bright Church had too many experts.

Even if every surviving Saint Heir was surrounded by dozens of experts, there were still more than enough to spare.

The Bright Church’s grand movements also caught the attention of other forces in Europe.

Everyone understood that Xiao Zheng’s actions had finally awakened the ancient giant entrenched on the European Continent. The continent was destined to witness a bloody storm in the coming days.

"Finally, some good drama to watch."

Countless people had the same thought.

However, as the initiator of this chaos, Xiao Zheng was unaware of the external developments. He was currently hurrying to the next location, intending to kill the three remaining Saint Heirs on the bloody list before the Bright Church’s experts arrived.

This battle left Xiao Zheng with no way out.

From the moment he chose to target Arthur, he and the Bright Church were destined to stand on opposing sides!

"No one can stop me from obtaining the Golden Bone!"

"Those who block me shall die!"

Xiao Zheng’s eyes were piercing, his murderous intent soaring to the heavens!
