Beastmaster of the Ages

”Naturally inferior?” Lord Yue’s moon-white eyes gazed at the woman he had pursued for his whole life. They once had the deepest understanding for one another, spending many a lonely night accompanying one another, yet since when did her face start to look so foreign to him? Did she go insane, or did he? She had once loved him and seen kunlan primalwingers as equals, yet she would go so far to call them ’naturally inferior’ just to please the wonderians.

Only when she completely turned against him did he realize how shamelessness can completely warp the beauty of a woman. No matter how beautiful her face, it would no longer be able to stop his heart from giving out. What was most laughable was how she didn’t doubt a single of her own words and didn’t think she could be wrong in the least. What else was there left to say? Lord Yue’s flaming rage towards her and the Mi Shens was just washed away by the sorrow he felt.

”Lord Yue, please take care of Empress Xia and make sure she doesn’t leave the Grand Xia Guard Formation. You should be capable of that, right?” Tianming said.

Lord Yue was stunned. He had thought that he was here to die as cannon fodder, yet the assignment given to him was that easy. He accepted the mission, though he still had his doubts. ”No problem. I understand her.”

”Pope, deal with Mi Shen Gamma. Same thing, keep him in the formation. There’s no need to defeat him,” Tianming said to Tian Jue.

He humphed with a smile. ”Those dogshit wonderians are three persons in one, and you only asked me to take on a third of a person? I’ll kill him and show you what true divine wonders are capable of!”

Lord Yue somewhat envied the pope’s charisma. Though he was a Grand Xia imperial just like Empress Xia, his mindset was completely different, being a rash but decisive person who went with his gut. Empress Xia, on the other hand, feigned rationality from her ivory tower but didn’t have a spine to back it up. Still, Lord Yue wondered who would deal with Mi Shen Alpha and Beta. Those two were no joke and they wouldn’t just let Gamma be isolated.

Lord Yue’s doubts aside, the four imperial-class fighters on the other side seemed troubled. They knew that the key to taking down the formation was defeating Tianming. Talking too much might squander this rare encounter!

Mi Shen Alpha was the most centered of his brothers, being the eldest. ”I need each of you to hold one back while I deal with Li Tianming!” The four gigantic cosmic gods made their move.

”Even though I led you on a path of success, you jumped into the drain at the most crucial moment! Now, all you have waiting for you is death. Don’t blame me for being heartless! It’s all your choice!” Empress Xia said, charging at Lord Yue.

He looked at her coldly as a pair of moon-white primalwings emerged from his back. Like two galaxies, they glowed brightly even against the flaming backdrop of the formation. Without another word, he flapped his wings and flew away from the main battlefield.

”Trying to run?” Empress Xia’s middlekin astrons flared up as her imperial-class divine wonder emerged, forming into many mechanical phoenixes of flame that flew in Lord Yue’s direction. This was the highest-tier divine wonder to be passed down in Grand Xia, the Grand Xia sky phoenix wonder! She looked like the empress she was truly meant to be. The wondermancers of Grand Xia cheered wildly at the sight of the phoenix-filled sky.

”Kill him!”

”That kunlan primalwinger is a joke! Their entire kind is inferior to the bone!”

”Their legacy and culture passed down from their ancient ancestor are totally rotten!”

”How dare they resist the divine wondersky race? They really went out of their way to get others killed! When will they finally realize how foolish and pathetic they are?”

The cosmic gods of Grand Xia had never liked Lord Yue. When they saw the former lovers engaged in a fight to the death, the men of Grand Xia finally felt relieved. Soon, blasts of moonlight clashed with the phoenixes and shook the hearts of the spectators.

”Over there!” Tian Jue pointed at the three Mi Shens and laughed. ”You three infertile birth defects, I will take all of you on! That Empress Xia’s head is filled with nothing like bullshit. She doesn’t know that you’re nothing but imperfect fragments of our ancestor! How embarrassing of her to hold you three in such high regard!”

The pope’s words drew the hate of all wonderians. He had called them birth defects! Any wonderian that dared to comment on that aspect of Mi Shen was dead; it was a huge taboo. Mi Shen couldn’t endure being called infertile the most. The triplets were all men, and according to the customs and taboos of wonderians, only natural-born husbands and wives could procreate, and their children would also be twins of opposite genders. However, those that were born as siblings of the same gender couldn’t do the same. Being unable to procreate with one’s own race made it even less likely that they could procreate with other races. The wonderians were, after all, far more isolated from other races compared to others, a sign that they were defective fragments that had split off from one person.

The Mi Shens’ rage turned their eyes flaming white, honing their killing intent without compromising their reason. They were still aware that Tianming was their main goal.

”Let me!” Mi Shen Gamma roared as his body crashed through countless word prisons while he flew towards the pope.

”Whoa, you’re doing this for real?” Tian Jue yelped before turning tail to flee towards where the rest of the wonderians were gathered. With his divine wonder deployed, he was like a wild beast on a stampede through the crowd!

The two marshal-tier fights drew incredible attention from the rest on the battlefield, shaking the normal cosmic gods to the core. Tianming had two billion ghouls, the astralguard formation, and ninety million cosmic gods while the wonderians had three hundred million units. The resulting clash was not even at all, with the wonderians being at a severe disadvantage! The longer they remained in the formation, the more their forces would be drained. On the other hand, Tianming ensured that the Tian Jiu Cult’s troops were in the rear to prevent their numbers from dwindling. Mi Shen and Empress Xia knew that they had no choice but to brave the ghouls and formation while the rest of the army that made it out would just sit and watch, feigning ignorance! Once Tianming was dead, this problem would be solved.
