Chapter 1247: Killing a Saint (IV)
The man with a sword on his back looked in the Barren direction with a jerk of shock.
“I thought you wouldn’t do so... You... are more vicious than I knew or could imagine!”
Li Hao had given orders for Lin Hongyu to massacre Divine Nation! A group of powerhouses that were Apexes at their weakest were slaughtering weaklings that weren’t stronger than Mountain and Sea! One hundred people could kill several hundred thousand, if not one million Divine Nation citizens!
Bitterness and blood qi soared to the heavens! Li Hao was much more brutal and ruthless than they’d ever postulated.
Behind the man, the Moon God wheezed with anger, “Damn it, they’ve destroyed the faith of Divine Nation...”
This was an undeserved catastrophe! She was taking the blame for the second generation.
The real Moon God was not as useless or incompetent as the faithful thought her to be. But for the moment, the Moon God in everyone’s hearts was the queen. The queen had lost again and again, lowering her worshippers’ expectations time and time again.
Utter devastation was upon them now! All of the accumulated resentment, dissatisfaction, and despair exploded out of the people. It tipped over in a collapse of their faith.
The man with a sword frowned slightly as well. He’d suffered a lapse in judgment this time. He’d witnessed all of Li Hao’s movements to date, but to order an entire nation to be put to the sword...
This did not fulfill the man’s mental image of a swordsman and was far at odds with the image that Li Hao normally displayed. The young man was quite stony-hearted with this decision—even more so than the Human King!

“Li Hao!” murmured the man. “Moon God, have the second generation run away as quickly as possible. A collapse of faith and the demise of Divine Nation... Although the heavenly will favors her, a conflict between faith and the heavens will appear...”
