An Tianying

Annihilation Star Palace was majestic and imposing, radiating grandeur.

It was like a gigantic beast lying in ambush, quietly crouched in the vast starry sky.

Its main hall was even more magnificent, gilded and resplendent, with carved beams and painted rafters. It exuded an ancient, mysterious aura.

At that moment, the atmosphere inside the hall was grave, like the silence before a storm.

More than ten thousand Ninth Layer Mahayana Realm experts had gathered together, dressed in Saint Artifact battle armor of various colors.

Each one radiated tremendous power, like a drawn sword with its edge fully revealed.

Annihilation Star Lord sat high upon the seat of honor. He wore a black robe, and his expression was cold and stern.

His eyes were as deep as the stars, radiating suffocating pressure.

His gaze swept over the crowd, as sharp as a hawk's, making no one dare meet his eyes.

"Everyone, I have summoned you here this time to discuss launching another attack on Shenwu Star."

His voice was low and powerful, full of authority.

At his words, everyone's spirits lifted.

"Last time, our retreat was a disgrace of the highest order. This grudge must be avenged!"

Someone spoke furiously, his voice filled with resentment.

"Exactly! We swear to follow the Star Lord to the death. We must flatten Shenwu Star!"

Someone else echoed him, fanatical light flashing in his eyes.

Annihilation Star Lord nodded slightly, quite pleased by their reaction.

"If that is the case, does anyone have a good strategy?" he asked in a deep voice.

The main hall immediately fell into a brief silence.

Everyone looked at one another, yet for a moment no one dared speak first.

After all, the shadow of their crushing defeat last time had yet to disperse. No one dared offer a plan
