Beastmaster of the Ages

”It’s really repulsive, but now that we know the truth, we can do something about it. First, we’ll stage a rescue operation and catch them off guard. Then, we’ll leverage this information to seize the high ground and get the other starcages on our side!” Being calmer than Mu Qingqing, Tianming talked her through her jumbled thoughts.

”Yes, I understand.” She looked at him. ”Then what should we do now? Head for Violetmoon Chaos Star Ruin?”

Tianming shrugged. ”The Chaos Star Ruin must be heavily protected. We don’t have to take unnecessary risks. Let’s return to Nullity and inform Imperator Skyplunder. He can order his forces to decimate them while rescuing the captives. We’ll get our revenge! They were the first to commit these atrocities, so our retaliation is justified!”

”Okay!” Overcome with worry, Mu Qingqing couldn’t hold back the tears.

Seeing how anxious they were, Zi Zhen said, ”Go rescue them, I’m leaving.”

”How’s the power conversion going?” Tianming asked.

”I think I’ll be able to enter the Realm of Chaos soon. Hope I’m not in the way?” Zi Zhen pursed her lips.

”Then hurry up and cut the crap!”

Grabbing Yueling Momo’s cosmic-god essence, Tianming left the pathway and returned with Mu Qingqing. Shortly afterwards, they arrived at Skyplunder Capital and entered Plunderlord Palace.

Li Muyang and Wei Jing were both in the palace, as was Li Tianzi. Upon seeing Tianming, Wei Jing greeted him gently and smiled. “Weren’t you having fun in the Dongshen Arena? What brings you back?”

Her gaze landed on Mu Qingqing’s red-rimmed eyes and her own demeanor shifted to one of grave concern. Staring at Tianming, she asked, ”Did you bully Qingqing?”

”No, Mother. We have news about my brother and the others!” Mu Qingqing quickly explained.

Upon hearing this, both Li Muyang and Li Tianzi looked over. Calming herself down, Mu Qingqing relayed everything Yueling Momo had just said.

BANG!

Li Tianzi slammed his fist into the wall, and the entire palace trembled from the force of his anger.

”It’s outrageous!” Anger surged beneath his icy gaze.

”Gather our men and rescue them,” Li Muyang ordered.

”What about those bastards?” Li Tianzi asked, his voice heavy.

”Do as you please,” Li Muyang replied.

Li Tianzi grasped the full meaning behind those three words instantly.

He said, ”I estimate about 200 million heavencosmic gods are stationed in Violetmoon Chaos Star Ruin. We’ll cause quite a stir if we mobilize the troops from here, so the plan is to pull three hundred million heavencosmic gods from two nearby fortresses and attack.”

His words indicated a large-scale war.

”That’s a bit risky.” Li Muyang frowned.

”Father, speed is critical in war. If they catch on before we act, they’ll silence us, erase all evidence, and make it look like we started the conflict,” Li Tianzi said solemnly.

Determining the rightful party relied entirely on evidence. Nullity was currently the victim, but their losses would be significant if they were falsely accused.

”I’ll leave it to you,” Li Muyang said, his voice deep.

Tianming interjected, ”Since it’s risky, why not lead the operation yourself?”

”He can’t leave Nullity.” Li Tianzi glared at Tianming before turning to Mu Qingqing. ”Don’t worry, we’ll go right away.”

”Thank you, Big Brother.” Mu Qingqing couldn’t help but feel anxious. She glanced at Tianming, the unspoken words heavy on her mind.

”I’ll go with you. I can help,” said Tianming.

Li Tianzi paused mid-stride, turned, and stared meaningfully at Tianming. “Yes, that insect of yours is pretty good.”

Seeing this, Wei Jing seemed quite pleased. ”About time you brothers worked together,” she said.

”Goodbye, Father, Mother.”

After leaving, Li Tianzi gathered about twenty primocosmic gods, each tens of thousands of meters tall. They constituted his main combat force. Among them was a middle-aged man named Mu Changfeng who was Mu Qingqing’s uncle. He towered at a staggering 60,000 meters, possessing astonishing combat power

”You brought the news, Imperial Son?” Mu Changfeng asked, somewhat surprised.

”Do you think I’m not good enough?” Tianming smiled.

”I wouldn’t dare, I’m just a little surprised. We practically searched the entire Inverse Battlefield,” Mu Changfeng said sheepishly.

”You’ve searched the battlefield, and–” Li Tianzi was suddenly interrupted by Tianming.

”We’ll talk when we get there.”

Li Tianzi only alluded to their whereabouts without providing a specific location. The others fell silent.

The moment he reached the Inverse Battlefield, Li Tianzi immediately mobilized all forces from two nearby fortresses, completely disregarding the Chaos Star Ruins. Once assembled, the 300-million-strong army marched towards the Violetmoon Chaos Star Ruin.

In front of the vast army, Tianming turned to Li Tianzi and said, ”I’ve looked into it. There are more enemies in that Chaos Star Ruin than we thought, 100 million violetblitzians and 150 million from Yueling Starcage. It’s going to be hard to pull off a huge win with just the forces you have now.”

”I know.” Staring intently at Tianming, Li Tianzi asked, ”So how can you help?”
