Tycoon War God

”Hahahahaha...”

Just as everyone was drowning in grief, a woman suddenly burst out laughing.

”Lady Xian, have you gone mad?!”

The Empress Dowager, sunk in sorrow, glared furiously at the woman who was laughing aloud.

The Southern King had fallen; as the Southern King’s woman, she not only wasn’t grieving, she was actually laughing—this woman deserved death!

The others around them also stared at Lady Xian with eyes full of anger.

Quite a few Second Tribulation Powerhouses were already preparing to strike.

At this moment, Lady Xian suddenly twisted her face into a vicious grin and said, ”I’m laughing at that idiot Lin Wudi! He got my husband killed, but his own death isn’t far off!”

Those who had been about to attack all stared at Lady Xian in bewilderment, not understanding what she meant.

The Empress Dowager’s earlier fury shifted into grief.

In her heart she sighed: it seems Lady Xian is too overcome with sorrow and has gone mad; otherwise, how could she spout such wild nonsense?

Lady Xian seemed to notice the look on everyone’s faces and sneered, ”Did you not see just now? That idiot Lin Wudi walked right into the net and entered the Sixth-Level Guiyu!”

”What?”

”Is that true?”

”It did… seem like that!”

Earlier Lin Wudi had suddenly appeared, then suddenly vanished; many people hadn’t noticed where Lin Wudi had gone.

Now, with Lady Xian’s reminder, they suddenly recalled that the place where Lin Wudi disappeared really was the Sixth-Level Guiyu.

”Hahahahaha… serves him right! When Heaven means to destroy someone, it first makes him mad! Lin Wudi is finally getting his retribution!”

”Exactly!”

”Hahaha, Lin Wudi, die!”

”My King, your soul is not yet far—watch as your enemy follows you into death!”

Everyone in the Imperial City seemed to go insane.

A moment ago it had been endless grief.

Now, realizing Lin Wudi had actually entered a Ghost Specter, they all felt a kind of vengeful thrill.

The Sixth-Level Guiyu: facing ten thousand Ghost Charm of the same level, once you enter, death is certain!

Even someone as powerful as the Southern King hadn’t dared step into a Sixth-Level Guiyu while he was alive!

Anyone who entered was doomed to die!

For a time, the Imperial City was filled with a cacophony of cries and laughter.

There was sorrow, and there was wild delight!

In less than half a stick of incense, a cracking sound suddenly rang in everyone’s ears.

Crack!

The sound of shattering boomed like Thunderbolt in the ears of everyone in the Imperial City.

”What’s going on? What sound is that?”

”The direction it came from is the Sixth-Level Guiyu; could it be…”

”Impossible, Lin Wudi is doomed for sure!”

As everyone’s shock and confusion mounted, the Sixth-Level Guiyu suddenly collapsed.

Next, Lin Wudi’s figure appeared in the place where the Sixth-Level Guiyu had been; in his hand was the Ghost Pearl formed from the collapsing and gathering of the Sixth-Level Guiyu!

”This…”

In the Imperial City, whether they had been sobbing or laughing, everyone seemed to be frozen solid, their voices gone.

Only after a long time did sound return.

It was a roar of despair.

”Impossible! How could you possibly come out alive from a Sixth-Level Guiyu! Impossible…”

”No, this isn’t real…”

”Aaahhh…”

”Lin Wudi, I’ll kill you!”

There were those who couldn’t believe it, those who doubted reality itself, and those who crazily launched suicidal charges at Lin Wudi.

Lin Mu paid them no heed; his figure vanished once more.

”Where is he? Where is Lin Wudi?!”

The maddened crowd started searching everywhere.

Smack!

Lady Xian slapped herself hard across the face, then laughed hysterically: ”I must be dreaming—Lin Wudi, the Southern King’s fall, all of it is a dream, it has to be a dream…”

More people, however, were like lost souls, once again sinking into grief.

The Southern King was most likely dead, and Lin Wudi hadn’t died in the Sixth-Level Guiyu either.

Grief once more shrouded the Imperial City.

Crack!

The sound of Ghost Specter collapsing kept ringing out.

Lin Wudi’s figure appeared and disappeared again and again.

At first, there were still people trying to go all out against Lin Wudi.

Later on, everyone could only stare blankly at everything that was happening.

Whether they were stunned by Lin Wudi’s strength, or had been crushed by grief and lost their will, no one knew.

Crack!

Finally, the last Ghost Specter shattered.

Lin Mu rose into the air and disappeared before everyone’s eyes.

The entire Imperial City felt as though it had been abandoned.

The Left Minister and the others were utterly numb.

If Lin Wudi had turned his hand and smashed the entire Imperial City with a single palm, it would have been better than this naked, brutal disregard.

Right now, they were like ants—unable to attract Lin Wudi’s attention in the slightest.

”My King…”

The Left Minister cried out once more in bitter grief, his voice filled with endless desolation.

...

On the fifth day, in the Southern King’s Domain, every Ghost Specter vanished.

On the tenth day, in the Northern King’s Domain, every Ghost Specter vanished.

On the fifteenth day, in the Western King’s Domain, every Ghost Specter vanished.

With his unrivaled strength within the Forbidden Sand Sea, Lin Wudi swept away all Ghost Specter.

The Ghost Specter that had existed for countless ages in the Stone Gate Realm disappeared one after another in his hands.

The people in the Hidden King’s Domain finally learned the result of that battle in the Black Sand Sea.

All Four Hidden Kings had fallen to Lin Wudi.

The people of the Hidden King’s Domain were all faithful believers of the Four Hidden Kings; they had placed all their hopes upon them.

They had dreamed that one day, the Four Hidden Kings would lead them out of the Forbidden Sand Sea and back to the Heavenly Realm.

Now, Lin Wudi’s appearance had shattered everything!

Within the Four Hidden Kings’ Domain, crazed followers were everywhere.

Many Second Thunder Tribulation Practitioners even tracked Lin Wudi, trying to launch suicidal attacks.

Unfortunately, their speed simply couldn’t match Fourth Tribulation Thunder.

Lin Wudi’s movements were unpredictable; wherever there was a Ghost Specter, that was where he appeared.

Usually, by the time those people tried to give chase, Lin Wudi had already crushed the Ghost Specter and vanished without a trace.

In just fifteen days, the Four Hidden Kings’ Domain had become an ocean of sorrow and despair.

...

Flowing Sand River.

Crack!

The Luminous Cup filled with Heavenly Realm wine in the Zai Si Patriarch’s hand was crushed to powder on the spot.

”What did you say?”

His tiger eyes bulged as he stared in disbelief at Qu Ling, who was reporting the intelligence.

Qu Ling’s body trembled uncontrollably under the pressure of a Six-Tribulation Overlord.

”Reporting to Patriarch, right now there are rumors everywhere in the Nanyuan King King’s Domain that Lin Wudi has opened a Spatial Passage, left the Forbidden Sand Sea, and gone to the Heavenly Battlefield!”

Even as she spoke, Qu Ling herself could barely believe it.

Breaking through the spatial barrier in the Forbidden Sand Sea to rush to the Heavenly Battlefield—this was something even an Overlord of the Seventh or Eighth Tribulation couldn’t accomplish.

Perhaps only the legendary Ninth Tribulation could do it!

Lin Wudi was merely a Second Thunder Tribulation Practitioner, yet he supposedly opened a Spatial Passage—this was a message no one could accept.

So at first, she had also assumed it was some smokescreen laid by Lin Wudi or the Eastern Luo King, meant to throw off attention.

But then more and more intel came from other cities.

Every piece of intel pointed to one thing: Lin Wudi really had left!

”Such nerve! How dare he toy with me, the Patriarch!”

The Zai Si Patriarch flew into a mad rage, then suddenly rose into the air, flying toward the Nan Yuan Royal City.

...

At almost the same time, General Wei Chi of the Heavenly Realm Guard and the Hunting Squad Captain of the Heaven’s Mandate Organization both received similar intel.

At first, both of them thought it was nonsense.

If Spatial Passages in the Forbidden Sand Sea were that easy to open, this place would already be a playground for Heavenly Realm Tribulation-Elders—how could so many people have died here?

But more and more intel followed, especially when several groups of former Ten Kings’ subordinates like Fei Yun and Huan Li came over to defect and offered up information.

Only then did they confirm: Lin Wudi had actually escaped!
