Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 658: Chapter 652: Identity Exposed

After a round of conversation and some indirect inquiries, Lin You learned a lot of information about the Divine Domain from Bai Linxue’s mouth.

The Divine Domain, also known as the Godly Realm.

A world that only those above the Divine Level can set foot in.

It is said that this world has an endlessly vast expanse of heaven and earth and history, with various forces scattered everywhere. Demons fill the entire Divine Realm, and the further away from the cities, the more powerful they become, to the extent that even the top experts dare not easily set foot there.

Their Demon Suppression City belongs to a force named the Pantheon, an average-sized city under the Pantheon’s jurisdiction, specifically used as the outermost barrier against demon attacks.

That’s also the origin of the name Demon Suppression City.

And the center of Pantheon’s power is the Pantheon City, the most prosperous place in this region and the place with the largest number of strong individuals.

As for even farther places, Bai Linxue does not know much about them, having only heard a few words in passing from some merchants.

Basically, every year.

The Pantheon sends people to conduct awakening ceremonies in various nearby cities, selecting outstanding lord candidates to join them, managing various territories, and resisting demonic attacks and harassment from different directions.

Overall.

This is a dangerous world of coexistence and confrontation between gods and demons.

To establish a foothold here, one must have enough strength.

Thus, the initial species awakened is absolutely the first major event in life for many young adults.

If the awakening fails.

What awaits them is a lifetime of mediocrity, living out their days as ordinary people.

”According to what you’re saying, it seems like I ruined your major life event?”

Lin You looked peculiar, glancing at Bai Linxue who walked beside him and seemed a bit despondent.

”It’s fine.” Bai Linxue forced a smile, ”Anyway, the chances of a successful awakening were only fifty percent, even without your appearance, I might not have succeeded.”

After finishing, she lowered her head gloomily, and anyone could see her disappointment.

What a kind girl indeed.

Lin You couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

After experiencing too much deceit and life-or-death struggles, he hadn’t encountered such a pure heart for a long time, surprisingly evoking a sense of nostalgia.

It further strengthened his determination to help.

But before doing that, he needs to understand why he can’t mobilize his power.

During their casual conversations.

The two quickly arrived at the western part of the city, into the civilian area. The bustling streets in front of them gradually transformed into winding alleyways, and even the houses became lower and older.

”Yo, isn’t this Linxue girl? Are you off to buy medicine for your dad again today?”

At this moment, several elderly women airing clothes in front of their doors greeted Bai Linxue enthusiastically.

”Linxue is really filial, going out early to buy medicine.”

”Indeed, I wish my wild daughter were as filial as Linxue.”

”Would Bai girl like to come inside for a sit? I still need to thank you for treating my injury last time.”

It was evident that Bai Linxue was well-liked in this civilian area, almost everyone greeted her with smiles.

Bai Linxue responded to each of them, forcefully smiling as if nothing had happened.

But just at this moment.

A loud angry curse suddenly came from afar.

”Old man, if you don’t pay the rent by tomorrow, get out of here. These things will be considered interest!”

”No, don’t! That’s the only thing our family has, you can’t take them away!”

”Get out of the way!”

”Ah—”

The swearing, mixed with a voice of bitter pleading, echoed through all the alleys nearby.

Bai Linxue, who had originally been chatting with the aunties and uncles, changed her expression and immediately ran towards the direction of the voice.

”Dad!”

An anxious cry escaped her lips as they finally arrived at the end of the alley, outside a dilapidated courtyard, seeing an old man lying on the ground tightly holding onto several vicious-looking young men.

On the empty ground nearby, a voluptuous and seductive woman also stood.

”Bai Ruo, let my dad go!”

Bai Linxue changed her previous gentle demeanor and directly shouted in anger, running towards the small courtyard.

Bai Ruo?

The name caught Lin You’s attention who was following her.

Both of them have the surname Bai, could there be some relation?

Before he could think further, the woman named Bai Ruo had already given the answer.

”Yo, isn’t this the Bai family’s illegitimate daughter, Bai Linxue?”

”Back so soon, did the awakening fail?”

With that, a coquettish laugh came from her mouth, filled with contempt.

Bai Linxue glared at her, quickly ran over and helped the old man up.

”Dad, are you okay?”

The old man didn’t answer her, but looked anxiously at the ornate wooden box held by the young men.

”Quick, go and get that box back. It was the only thing your mother left for you when she left, something she wanted me to give you when you came of age!”

”Oh? So this thing was left by that wild woman who I don’t know where she came from? Bring it over, let’s have a look.”

Bai Ruo stretched out her hand, the young men respectfully handed the box to her, and she began to look it over with a playful expression.

Meanwhile, Lin You who had followed from afar, looked peculiar.

Illegitimate daughter, adoptive father, mother leaving, left heirloom...

What kind of protagonist script is this?

Even he, the Savior of All Realms, didn’t have such a melodramatic storyline.

”You’re not allowed to talk about my mother like that! Give me back my mother’s things!” Bai Linxue furiously glared at Bai Ruo.

”What? Are you that protective of the wild woman who abandoned you and left? I’m curious to see what she left for you.”

As Bai Ruo spoke, she placed her hands on the wooden box, ready to open it.

Bai Linxue’s face turned anxious, and she wanted to rush forward to seize it.

But in the next second.

A shadow flickered, and the wooden box in Bai Ruo’s hand instantly disappeared.

”Who!”

Looking at the empty palm, Bai Ruo was startled and immediately scanned the surroundings.

”Second Miss, be careful!”

The servants quickly reacted and immediately surrounded her, guarding her closely.

It was only then.

They finally noticed that beside Bai Linxue and her father, there was an unknown figure holding that wooden box.

”Who are you! Daring to thwart our Bai Family’s business!”

Bai Ruo’s face darkened, her gaze fixed sharply on Lin You.

”Brother Lin!”

Seeing Lin You appear beside her, Bai Linxue was both surprised and delighted.

She hadn’t anticipated his power to be so strong, able to snatch the item from Bai Ruo’s hand.

It’s known.

Once adults reach maturity in the Divine Domain, their power generally attains Quasi-God Level.

Even among the servants accompanying Bai Ruo, their strength is mid-tier within the Quasi-God Level, generally not something a newly awakened Lord can contend with.

”Take it.”

Lin You handed the wooden box to her, his gaze solemnly assessing the servants before him.

Even without fully understanding the power hierarchy of this world, he could feel these individuals were not weak, comparable at least to Emperor Level Middle Stage, with basic attributes definitely surpassing his newly advanced ones.

The choice to intervene was partly to repay Bai Linxue’s favor but also to test the combat skills of people within the Divine Domain for future readiness.

”So you won’t speak? Then let’s show him some might!”

Seeing Lin You outright ignore her, Bai Ruo squinted her eyes and commanded her servants.

Her eyes lacked murderous intent, more amusement as she continuously glanced at the man who suddenly appeared beside Bai Linxue.

The servants exchanged glances, and a man with tattooed arms stepped forward alone.

Huh.

What a show of honorable conduct, not resorting to a group assault initially.

Lin You was slightly surprised.

But quickly, his expression changed.

As beside the tattooed man, suddenly appeared an undead species wielding a scythe.

[Name: Scythe of Death (Legendary)]

[Race: Undead (Hero)]

[Level: Divine Level (Tier 6)]

[Power: 556]

[Constitution: 530]

[Agility: 573]

[Spirit: 573]

[Skills: Slash, Phantomization, Death Declaration, Scythe of Death]

[Exclusive Talent: Soul Hook Chain]

[Introduction: A species bearing the title of Death God; individual combat ability is considerable, and a slight mistake could lead to soul-hooking demise.]

Legendary Species!

Seeing the species information before him, Lin You was even more astonished.

Divine Level he could understand, but what’s the meaning of Tier 6 afterward?

And why were the attributes only over 500 points? Could it be related to the elevation of life tier?

Additionally, aside from the effects of skills, he could apparently see all the information about the opponent’s species!

Mystified, thoughts swarmed his mind as he prepared to summon the Royal Family to respond.

But just then, a voice cried out.

”Halt!”

A man clad in armor appeared riding a scale armored steed, accompanied by a guard squad.

Lin You’s gaze tightened, sensing a dangerous aura from the newcomer.

This person’s strength was absolutely above the Divine Level!

”Brother, why have you returned?”

Bai Ruo looked at the man and his entourage with surprise.

Each carried armor still stained with blood, appearing weathered and clearly having just participated in a battle.

”We’ll settle accounts later!”

The man shot Bai Ruo a stern glance and promptly dismounted, walking straight towards Lin You and the others.

Lin You was startled, realizing the man was heading towards him.

Indeed.

Soon the man arrived in front of him, curiously examining him.

”Brother Bai Zhan.”

Bai Linxue greeted, seemingly having a good relationship with the man.

Bai Zhan smiled, nodding slightly at her, then looked again towards Lin You: ”Presumably, you are the... species summoned during Linxue’s awakening ceremony?”

After speaking, a peculiar expression flashed on his face.

But he quickly cleared his throat, articulating his purpose: ”My father wishes to invite you and Linxue to the mansion for a discussion of important matters, might you oblige?”

”Looking for me?”

Lin You was instinctively guarded, wanting to refuse.

But the next words from the man changed his expression.

”It’s regarding... the Heaven-Reaching Road.” Bai Zhan said, with a voice audible only to the two.

Heaven-Reaching Road!

How could he know about this?

Lin You was greatly alarmed, ready to activate the Time Law to escape at any moment.

Because his origin from the Ten Thousand Realms must never be revealed, especially to the forces behind Mo Tian.

If discovered that the World Core resides with him, what awaits is endless pursuit!
