Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 4448 - Imperator’s Rage

Nobody would’ve expected such a thing to happen amidst the chaos. Lin Xiaoting who had an edge over Tianming not too long ago ended up killed just like that. The sheer power of Tianming’s sword strike was just as difficult to believe in as Lin Xiaoting’s death.

That strike had split the star-filled galaxies and crushed everything beneath it! Such was the ultimate profundity demonstrated by Ninefirm Starfall Exorcism, Universe Skyfall. Tianming had unleashed the ultimate potential of that move, especially when paired with the power of the Three-Eyed Lightning Death Constellation.

The entire capital erupted with wild cheers following Lin Xiaoting’s death. It came mainly from the firemaple invaders. Apart from Li Yanfeng, none of them knew that they were secretly working with sky plunderers. All of them believed that it was merely a coincidence that their imperator’s supernaturally sharp instincts caused them to attack at such an opportune moment. Seeing Lin Xiaoting killed hyped them up even more.

”Holy crap! Lin Xiaoting exploded!”

”The Skyplunder imperial son is too fierce!”

”I thought Lin Xiaoting got much more dangerous after drinking that thing. Who knew that he’d die to a single sword strike?”

”That’s violetblitzians for you. Their thing doesn’t get hard even with a hard stimulant like that.”

The firemaples continued their spirited cheer. Tianming had basically killed the next imperator of the violetblitzians, which struck a heavy blow on their morale. The violetblitzians simply couldn’t believe how things had turned out.

”The imperial son... was killed?!”

”How can that be possible? I was looking forward to his ascension to imperatorhood! I thought we would finally have two imperatores in the same era!”

”The sky plunderers! It’s all their fault! They will never be forgiven!”

”If not for the firemaples messing things up, our imperial son would’ve killed Li Tianming!”

Their hatred and sorrow could do nothing against Tianming in the slightest. He put away his massive swords and turned to Imperator Ji and Imperator Tu. ”Looks like you two have absolute shit tastes in men. Make sure to come back home with me and play your role as wives properly!”

His expression was domineering and cold. Though the marriage was merely for show, Tianming wanted to keep them down and make sure they knew that they were his for the rest of their lives after being wedded to him. Everyone could tell that the cuckold plan no longer had any meaning. The three imperial sons who had seduced the imperatores were all dead. Lin Xiaoting’s death told everyone the price one had to pay to make a cuckold out of Tianming.

”You!” The two female imperatores seemed rather grim at witnessing Lin Xiaoting’s death and hearing Tianming’s words. They had never expected that Lin Xiaoting wouldn’t be Tianming’s match even after using what the Adjudicator had provided. They could feel a powerful threat coming from Tianming’s sword strike themselves. His rate of growth was simply far too insane.

Forget it. As long as the Adjudicator is still around, there would be no more miracles, thought the both of them as they regulated their feelings. Imperator Ji’s expression turned cold and calm once more as she turned to him. ”Li Tianming, the Adjudicator now has justification to wipe out the sky plunderers now that you’ve conspired with the firemaples to kill Lin Xiaoting and trigger a civil war in Violetblitz Starcage!”

”Bullshit,” Tianming said, face filled with disdain. ”Were you blind? Lin Xiaoting came at me and tried to kill me. I don’t care how or why this civil war happened. He came for my life, so I ended his life! Were you expecting me to get killed without resisting?”

Li Tianzi proclaimed, ”What Tianming did was perfectly legitimate self-defense. It had nothing to do with instigating any war.”

”Your excuses won’t matter! The Adjudicator will be the final one to call the shots!” Imperator Ji snapped.

At that moment, the angry roar of an imperator shook the entire capital. Imperator Jian had finally noticed that his son was slain. ”Xiaoting! My Son!”

The massive cosmic god of lightning surged with ultimate hatred and sorrow, causing lots of lightning and thunder to appear. The other violetblitzians resonated with his pain. Not only had they lost their imperial son, they were being attacked by the firemaples from all directions.

Some time in the past, the former imperator had been killed by the firemaples in the very same capital. That day, the imperial son lost his life at Tianming’s hand at Myriadbolt Plaza. Imperator Jian had not just lost his father long ago, but even his son was taken from him! One could only imagine the rage he felt.

”Lin Tianjian!” Tianming called out and laughed at the angry imperator. ”Congratulations! Your son was a shameless temptor of married women. I dealt with him to spare your clan the humiliation of having such a vile person among your ranks for no cost at all. Don’t need to thank me.”

Though the words were in poor taste, they did more than enough mental damage.

”Vile child, you are asking for death!” The mighty imperator was enraged by Tianming’s cheap provocation. From how badly he wanted to kill Tianming, it was clear how dear Lin Xiaoting had been to him.

His son was meant to take after him as the next imperator of the violetblitzians! He had raised Lin Xiaoting painstakingly since his childhood, sculpting his talent, personality and capabilities. Had he the choice, he would’ve died in the place of his son.

It was too bad that he didn’t expect Tianming to be able to triumph over Lin Xiaoting even after he used that mysterious drug. It didn’t help that Tianming mocked him for his loss after all that. How could he possibly endure it?

”Well, you guys can keep fighting your war. I will be leaving with my wives.” Tianming picked up Lin Xiaoting’s cosmic relic, the Kun Sky Myriadsource Blitz, and turned to leave.

”Imperator Ji, Imperator Tu, stop him, please!” Imperator Jian cried out in desperation as Imperator Feng kept him busy.
