Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Thanks to the Human Emperor Network, the virtual world and reality were linked to a certain extent.

Since the two newcomers hadn’t concealed their information, Lin Moyu could immediately see their names.

”Jiang Jiyuan, Jiang Jiyue.”

”Brother and sister, judging by their names.”

Both were 4th tier Transcendent Gods, and their striking resemblance only confirmed his guess.

Although humanity stood united against external enemies, schemes and betrayals still happened from time to time.

Lin Moyu remained cautious.

The siblings stopped about a hundred meters away.

Jiang Jiyuan released a soul-echo, ”Junior Brother Lin, are you here for Starfire Metal?”

Lin Moyu nodded, ”Yes. Is there something you need, Senior Brother Jiang?”

Jiang Jiyuan smiled kindly, ”Junior Brother Lin, you’re only a 1st tier Transcendent God. Continuing any further will be extremely dangerous.”

”Whether it’s the Starfire itself or the Starfire Beasts, either one could kill you.”

Lin Moyu couldn’t tell whether the warning came from genuine concern or hidden motives.

Still, the man had shown courtesy, and he had no desire to make unnecessary enemies.

”Thank you for the warning, Senior Brother Jiang. I have my own means of protecting myself.”

Jiang Jiyuan chuckled, forcing a smile, ”There is indeed Starfire Metal below, but it’s guarded by a Starfire Beast.”

”Although it’s only at the 4th tier Transcendent God realm, it’s even stronger than ordinary 4th tier Transcendent Gods. Even my sister and I can only fight it to a standstill.”

”Junior Brother Lin, if you are willing to assist us, we may be able to obtain the Starfire Metal.”

A faint glint flashed across Lin Moyu’s eyes, ”I’m only a 1st tier Transcendent God. What help could I possibly offer?”

Jiang Jiyuan smiled, ”I possess a formation that requires three people to activate.”

”It combines the strength of all three participants, allowing us to unleash an attack comparable to a 5th tier Transcendent God.”

”That should be enough to kill the Starfire Beast—or at the very least, severely injure it.”

He quickly added, ”The Starfire Metal it’s guarding weighs at least fifty catties. My sister and I are only here to complete a mission and need just ten catties.”

Lin Moyu silently studied him, trying to determine whether he was telling the truth.

Jiang Jiyue wasn’t as breathtaking as Gu Qingxuan, nor could she compare with Lin Moyu’s wives, but she was still an undeniably beautiful woman.

She had remained silent the entire time.

Now, however, she suddenly spoke, ”Why are you hesitating so much? Are you even a man?”

Her voice was sharp and fiery, carrying all the arrogance of a pampered young miss.

”Jiyue, watch your tongue!” Jiang Jiyuan immediately scolded her.

Jiang Jiyue snorted, ”Did I say anything wrong? Our Jiang Family’s reputation speaks for itself. Why would we stoop to harming him?”

”Look at him. He obviously doesn’t trust us.”

Lin Moyu murmured, ”The Jiang Family?”

He genuinely had never heard of them.

Jiang Jiyue lifted her chin proudly, ”The God King Jiang Family of Inhabited Star System No. 100 in the Vermilion Bird Starfield.”

”Ask anyone across the surrounding starfield. You’ll know exactly what kind of reputation our Jiang Family has.”

”Jiyue, enough!” Jiang Jiyuan glared at her before turning back to Lin Moyu and cupping his fist, ”Junior Brother Lin, I’m truly sorry. My sister has a quick temper. Please don’t take offense.”

”If you’re unwilling to cooperate, we won’t force you.”

It wasn’t fear that made Lin Moyu hesitate.

With his current defenses, even ordinary 1st tier and 2nd tier True Gods posed little threat.

He had simply been weighing a few possibilities.

Ironically, Jiang Jiyue’s outburst put him more at ease.

Jiang Jiyuan was calm and reserved, making it difficult to discern his true intentions.

His sister, however, wore her emotions openly.

From her reaction, Lin Moyu could tell she wasn’t particularly scheming. Everything she had said came from genuine indignation.

Smiling faintly, Lin Moyu said, ”I was distracted by something else just now. My apologies.”

”I’ll accept your invitation, Senior Brother Jiang. As for the Starfire Metal, I’ll only take ten catties after we’re done.”

Delight flickered across Jiang Jiyuan’s eyes, ”Excellent. My sister and I will each take ten catties. Everything else will belong to you, Junior Brother Lin.”

”There are probably a few things you don’t know yet. Besides being used to complete the mission, Starfire Metal has other uses.”

Lin Moyu looked slightly surprised, ”It can be used for forging weapons?”

Jiang Jiyuan smiled. ”Far more than that. Let’s deal with the Starfire Beast first. Once it’s over, I’ll explain everything.”

He deliberately left Lin Moyu in suspense, but Lin Moyu didn’t press the matter.

Led by Jiang Jiyuan, the three of them flew toward the planet.

The closer they drew, the more the temperature soared.

Even for Transcendent Gods, the scorching environment, well over ten thousand degrees, was unpleasant.

A jade hairpin nestled in Jiang Jiyue’s raven-black hair formed a barrier that kept the heat at bay.

Around Jiang Jiyuan, surging law served the same purpose.

Lin Moyu, however, remained completely unfazed.

He neither activated any defensive measures nor showed the slightest sign of discomfort.

Immune to all fire element damage, he regarded the blazing heat as little more than a mild annoyance.

Jiang Jiyuan stole a glance at him, surprise flickering across his face.

”Is something the matter?” Lin Moyu asked.

Jiang Jiyuan shook his head, ”Junior Brother Lin, you truly are no ordinary person.”

”What makes you say that?”

”A 1st tier Transcendent God with level two authority...”

Lin Moyu recalled Jin Feng making the same observation.

Apparently, possessing level two authority while remaining only a 1st tier Transcendent God was highly unusual.

Still, there was nothing he could do about it.

Realm advancement depended on law comprehension, not simply willing himself to break through. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

He was still some distance from the 2nd tier Transcendent God realm, and unless an unexpected opportunity presented itself, it would take time.

He merely smiled without replying, and Jiang Jiyuan tactfully let the matter drop.

Jiang Jiyue, however, frowned, ”How did you manage it?”

Lin Moyu ignored the question.

Jiang Jiyuan immediately reprimanded her. ”Jiyue, don’t pry into other people’s private matters.”

She snorted, ”I was only asking. What’s the big deal?”

No one who reached the Transcendent God realm could be truly young.

Lin Moyu estimated Jiang Jiyue was at least a century old, yet she behaved like an impulsive teenager.

He felt he had been far more mature and composed at eighteen.

Looking apologetic, Jiang Jiyuan said, ”I’m truly sorry. My sister has been spoiled by our family. Ever since she was born, she’s done little besides cultivating at home and has had very little contact with the outside world...”

Lin Moyu smiled, indicating he understood.

If her temperament remained unchecked, she would inevitably offend the wrong person someday.

Of course, that wasn’t his concern.

She wasn’t his sister, and it wasn’t his place to lecture her.

Under Jiang Jiyuan’s guidance, the trio soon reached the location of the Starfire Metal.

It lay within a ruined valley.

A faint crimson glow seeped from its depths, and Lin Moyu could clearly sense a dense concentration of the law of fire.

Jiang Jiyuan pointed toward the valley, ”The Starfire Metal is inside, and so is the Starfire Beast.”

”Once we enter, I’ll activate this formation plate. It has three nodes, and each of us only needs to stand on one. The formation will automatically merge our powers into a single force.”

”When fully activated, it can unleash an attack comparable to that of a 5th tier Transcendent God.”

As he spoke, he produced a palm-sized jade plate engraved with intricate formation marks.

It was Lin Moyu’s first time seeing a formation plate, and he examined it with open curiosity.

Jiang Jiyue let out a derisive snort, ”What a bumpkin. Don’t tell me you’ve never even seen a formation plate before.”

”Jiyue!” Jiang Jiyuan barked, ”If you keep acting like this, I won’t bring you with me next time.”

His stern tone made her flinch, and she immediately fell silent.

Jiang Jiyuan turned to Lin Moyu once more, ”My apologies.”

Lin Moyu looked at Jiang Jiyue for a long moment before speaking calmly, ”Let this be the last time.”

Though his voice remained even, an unmistakable chill accompanied his words.

He had no intention of killing her, but if she continued provoking him, he wouldn’t mind teaching her a lesson.

Jiang Jiyue bristled, ready to retort, but one look from Jiang Jiyuan silenced her.

She could only puff out her cheeks and huff in frustration.
