Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

When the voice ”Ye Nan is ready” rang through the communicator, Lord Demigod had already returned to the Yanjing Assembly Site.

He donned a black robe to conceal his figure, and his mask had been changed to another style. Combined with the power of the demigod himself, there was hardly any risk of exposure.

Lord Demigod walked briskly into the inner city zone, heading all the way to Lin Tianxue’s residence. Then he swiftly climbed over the wall and sneaked in without alerting anyone—like returning to his own home with ease.

Moving slowly through the shadows in the courtyard, it didn’t take long for Lord Demigod to arrive at the agreed meeting room with Lin Tianxue. Along with the sound of a crisp knock on the door, when the door opened, Lin Tianxue’s slightly exhausted face appeared.

”Lord Demigod...”

Lin Tianxue’s eyes were red and swollen, as if she had just cried. Seeing this, Lord Demigod gently patted Lin Tianxue’s head and then motioned for her to quickly enter the house.

As soon as he entered, Lord Demigod immediately noticed three distinct life energies.

”Qin Tian, Arthur, Agul... Hmm, these three are sufficient.”

Lord Demigod casually commented; no need to elaborate on the strength of Qin Tian and Arthur, and Agul was also a military powerful expert aligned with Lin Tianxue, ranked Sequence Number 22, similarly an extraordinary Breakthrough Achiever.

These three were Lin Tianxue’s trump cards! Also, they were the three reliable Level 6 Breakthrough Achievers that Lin Tianxue could trust...

Yet, Lin Haifeng’s possession of Level 6 Breakthrough Achievers was several dozens or hundreds of times this number! No wonder Lin Tianxue was terrified upon hearing Lin Haifeng initiate a settlement action, her mind solely occupied with preserving her own life; the disparity in power was simply too immense.

As soon as Lord Demigod entered the room, Lin Tianxue impatiently asked: ”When do we set out?”

”Immediately, start packing things now.”

Lord Demigod replied succinctly, but no sooner had the words been spoken than another voice abruptly chimed in from the side.

”Xiao Xue, stop this nonsense, go apologize to Commander Lin. I believe Commander Lin will forgive you. Don’t tell me about lifetime imprisonment, never seeing Yu Qiong again—I think that’s unlikely!”

Qin Tian gazed at the iron mask of Lord Demigod, his eyes intensely fixed with a gleam of cold light, finding this situation eerily strange.

”Xiao Xue, although Commander Lin governs with an iron hand and a firm grip, he is not without sentimentality. At this point, I believe you should acknowledge your mistakes and apologize. There might be imprisonment, but at most confined to this residence, and perhaps even Yu Qiong will visit you occasionally. Why go through all this trouble, head to the Star of Africa and endure such hardship? Xiao Xue, even a tiger does not prey on its cubs...”

While Qin Tian stared at Lord Demigod, almost bolder than speaking openly about his bad intentions, he persistently advised Lin Tianxue. However, as soon as the phrase ”even a tiger does not prey on its cubs” was spoken, Lord Demigod suddenly scoffed...

Then Lord Demigod turned his head, not even bothering to acknowledge Qin Tian, and spoke to Lin Tianxue: ”Commander Lin’s men are already on the way, but my people will arrive here first. Don’t alert the enemy prematurely, wait until my people arrive and then we will leave. Oh, by the way, Commander Lin’s judgment on you is already out, Black Abyss Prison’s lowest level special suite—not a bad environment, life imprisonment...”

”This is impossible!”

Qin Tian intervened again, his tone filled with distrust towards Lord Demigod, yet this honest advice was only met with Lin Tianxue’s dismissive hand gesture.

”Qin Tian, enough said. Compared to my father, I trust... Lord Demigod more!”

As if making a firm decision, Lin Tianxue’s weary face gradually turned determined. She nodded lightly to Lord Demigod and asked: ”When will your people arrive?”

”I’ll receive a message once they’ve arrived. You start packing, and once the message arrives, we move immediately.”

...

Upon returning to the Heavenly Palace once again, there was no special sentiment. In fact, in recent years, Wen Yu would occasionally venture into the Heavenly Palace, reaping minor benefits, not great ones.

”Lead the way.”

Saying this to Bai beside him, Bai chuckled, then took out a compass-like object from the space ring. With the pointer spinning wildly, a location was locked in no time.

”Here, follow me.”

...

Wen Yu was extremely fast, far outpacing Bai’s speed... Wen Yu didn’t harbor the desire to carry Bai while dashing about, and instead took in the surrounding scenery whilst casually chatting with Bai.

”How is life in the Demon Realm?”

”It’s just as it is. The entire Demon Realm is pungent and emits a sense of decay, like it’s about to perish, although the past few years have not been unfruitful; rather, Ye Nan has gained much, that guy...”

Bai’s tone was drawn out, filled with emotions that seemed both regretful and gratified.

”Ye Nan?”

Wen Yu expressed some surprise.

”Have you not dealt with Ye Nan yet?”

”Deal with Ye Nan? Why would I deal with Ye Nan?”

Bai put on an innocent face, resembling a harmless lamb... Wen Yu didn’t bother delving deeply into this pretentious topic with Bai, and instead brought up another subject.

”Regarding high-level forces of the Demon Tribe... um, do you have any reliable estimates, mainly concerning Level 10 Breakthrough Achievers.”

Upon hearing this question, Bai’s expression immediately grew solemn.

”There are many Level 10 Breakthrough Achievers in the Demon Tribe, although describing them as countless might be exaggerated, truly there are very, very many. I understand your concern: when the Level 10 Level Lock opens... tsk tsk, it would be utter devastation. Even with the power of the former Universe of Immortals and Heroes, nearly getting wiped out in that surge—let me say this, the time it takes for the Level Lock to break open should be postponed as much as possible, the slower the better, especially regarding Level 11 powerful experts. There are quite a few Level 11 powerful Demon Tribe members active—those without authority—I’ve managed to scout three of them... Oh, guess what?”

With this topic, Bai’s smile grew even more exuberant, and despite the lack of individuals around, Bai still acted surreptitiously, whispering secretly to Wen Yu.

”Ye Nan is pretty impressive now, he has contracted a Level 11 Avenging Spirit...”

Wen Yu’s steps halted. Level 11... Tang Haofei had defeated them, and whether Wen Yu can is still an uncertain matter.

”Is there a limitation? I mean, Ye Nan’s abilities must have certain limits, right? Otherwise, if he unleashed a Level 11 Demon Tribe on Earth, hey, the whole world would be his! Hmm, with the Level Lock in place, that would surely be impossible.”

”Hehehehehe...”

Bai emitted a series of peculiar laughs, not denying Wen Yu’s speculation, and instead raised a different topic.

”Are you confident in resolving Da Luo?”

”What do you think?”

”Tsk tsk, Brother Wen Yu, you’re impressive; over the past five years, if talking about changes, yours is the most significant...”
