Chapter 1888: Chapter 1655: Capture Her
"Lin Mo is back?" Duke Yaoyang heard this and squinted slightly, a cold gleam flickering in his eyes.
Marquis Qi Yuan said, "Lin Mo, this name I’ve heard of before. He’s a genius emerging from the Star Domain of Marquis Xuan Yang, and I heard he beat up the people you placed in the Law Tower."
"Hmph! This guy, I originally didn’t want to deal with him, but he’s always opposing me. If I don’t take him down, others will think I’m afraid of Marquis Xuan Yang and dare not touch his men," Duke Yaoyang snorted coldly.
Lin Mo caused Shao Wenfeng to fail in being selected for the Star Sky Alliance. This was secondary; after all, Duke Yaoyang left the Shao family many years ago, with little attachment. Shao Wenfeng caused trouble and offended Lin Mo, and he didn’t want to care; it was just a minor matter.
But Lin Mo beat the tiger-headed guard of the Law Tower, known almost to everyone in the Boundary General Area, equivalent to a slap to Duke Yaoyang’s face.
This could be tolerated, as Duke Yaoyang was busy preparing for reappointment and going to the Star Domain Battlefield, with no time to bother with Lin Mo.
Unexpectedly, he went directly to Elong Star and killed the Elong Star Lord, cutting off one of Duke Yaoyang’s financial roads.
The Elong Star Lord controlled the Milky Way, bringing countless treasures and wealth to him yearly, but Lin Mo killed him, severing a source of income.
"Lin Mo is back, accompanied by a woman. She only has Star Sea Level strength and is said to be his maid, probably from Earth?" that guard continued. Although there are several Realm Marquis experts governing the Boundary General Area, Duke Yaoyang, backed by a Realm Emperor as his mentor and adept at making friends, holds the greatest power among the Realm Marquis. The others are too busy cultivating to worry about these matters
.
"Alright, you may leave," Duke Yaoyang said.
The guard bowed and exited the drawing room.
"A newly arrived World General, yet so wild! I heard he’s still at Star Domain Level, not officially reaching World General Cultivation?" Marquis Qi Yuan said. "Hmm." Duke Yaoyang nodded, a beauty beside him poured wine. He lifted his cup, took a sip, and said coldly, "This time he stood out in the selection of many geniuses, hard-headed and unyielding. He doesn’t take me seriously; he has the backing of two Realm Kings and thinks with their support, he’s invincible?"
"The two Realm Kings Twelve and Thirteen?" Marquis Qi Yuan had heard some rumors, though he wasn’t sure.
Duke Yaoyang said, "Yes, these two Realm Kings originally have eccentric personalities, but actually became blood-brothers with a junior?"
"Fits their personalities," Marquis Qi Yuan laughed heartily.
"Duke Yaoyang, why not let me handle that Lin Mo?" At this, a youth sitting next to Duke Yaoyang suddenly said.
"You want to handle him?" Duke Yaoyang looked at him.
These youths were the elite of the Boundary General Area and had always had a good relationship with Duke Yaoyang. "Fine, find a chance to give him a lesson. As long as you don’t kill him, I will handle any blame from the Realm Kings; besides, he has the Realm Kings backing him, and I have my mentor, the Lord Realm Emperor, backing me." Duke Yaoyang squinted his eyes, his gaze cold.
"Alright, with Duke Yaoyang’s assurance, I am relieved. These newcomers just need to get a taste of hardship, so they know they need to be low-key here." The youth coldly laughed.
After three rounds of drinks, the guests and host were all delighted.
After sending Marquis Qi Yuan off, only Duke Yaoyang remained in the drawing room.
"Alright, alright, alright!" Duke Yaoyang laughed heartily, "With Marquis Qi Yuan lending me the ’He Yang Heart Protector’, my chances of survival are even greater. As long as I’m cautious, I’ll surely leave the Star Domain Battlefield alive and step into the Realm King Realm."
"In the battlefield, killer techniques aren’t as important as survival techniques!"
Duke Yaoyang had prepared for two years, now finally ready. With Qi Yuan’s ’He Yang Heart Protector’, he could set off.
Swoosh! Duke Yaoyang disappeared from his place, turning into a red light, flying towards a region of the Star Sky Alliance shrouded in white mist. In this region, only some palaces floated, or some tall mountains, all shrouded and obscured by white mist, even divine power couldn’t probe inside. This region was the residence and training grounds of the Realm Emperors and Realm Lords. Duke Yaoyang was very careful, not daring to disturb other Realm Emperors and Realm Kings, flying straight towards a towering blood-colored mountain, the size of an ordinary planet, standing in the starry sky
.
Duke Yaoyang took out a blood-colored token, which immediately emitted a glow wrapping around him, passing through the defensive Array outside the blood-colored mountain, flying inside.
He came to a majestic blood-colored palace, where the blood fog grew thicker, almost turning from vapor to liquid.
"Disciple, Duke Yaoyang, greets Master," Duke Yaoyang entered the palace, immediately landing and striding inside.
The palace was extremely spacious. Suddenly, a blood-colored figure appeared in the air, behind which a monstrous blood-colored giant eagle shadow appeared, exuding an extremely terrifying oppressive force.
"Duke Yaoyang, why have you come to see me?" The blood-colored figure’s voice was deep, speaking calmly.
Duke Yaoyang knew his master was in seclusion, and the blood-colored figure before him was merely an incarnation formed from a trace of his spirit. "Disciple has borrowed the ’He Yang Heart Protector’ from Marquis Qi Yuan and is ready to enter the Star Domain Battlefield at any time," Duke Yaoyang said quickly, "but Qi Yuan wants to try ’Hu Lie Three Thousand’. I wanted to borrow his Ultimate Weapon, but had to agree, I ask Master for forgiveness."
"Wine?" The blood-colored figure mused, "For those who love wine, it is as precious as an Ultimate Weapon, but to me, it’s not too important. Securing an Ultimate Weapon for you is quite worthwhile."
Duke Yaoyang was overjoyed, "Thank you, Master."
As the words fell, suddenly, the terrifying blood-colored giant eagle opened its mouth, emitting an extremely sharp screech. The sound waves spread out visibly, forming blood-colored ripples that could be seen with the naked eye.
Duke Yaoyang’s face changed sharply, unable to react, he was already thrown backward, heavily crashing onto the palace floor like a kite with a broken string.
"Master, master... why..." Duke Yaoyang hurriedly climbed up, blood staining the corner of his mouth, his eyes red. "I didn’t kill you, just destroyed part of your strength so you can enter the Third-level Battlefield," the Golden Cloud Realm Emperor said, "I helped you craft a treasure, taught you some top-tier cultivation methods, and brought out ’Hu Lie Three Thousand’ to exchange for the Ultimate Weapon for you. Do you know why?"
"Master, I do not know," Duke Yaoyang said. "I have spies placed in the Demon Clan, and they’ve heard wind that the Demon Clan has long been nurturing a Holy Daughter, rumored to be the inheritor of the Ice Emperor. I want you to capture her; she might enter the Star Domain Battlefield," the Golden Cloud Realm Emperor said. "Most likely, she’ll head to the Third-level Battlefield, so now I’ve reduced your strength, you can enter the Third-level Star Domain Battlefield. Once you return, I’ll grant you treasure to quickly recover and even elevate a realm." "The Demon Clan’s Holy Daughter, I should capture her?" Duke Yaoyang hesitated.
