Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3074: There Are Rebels in Any Era

A cold smile appeared on Yan Bei’s feathered face, his eyes full of mockery.

His voice was slightly shrill, “I am afraid, how could I not be!”

“I had thought, if you left, this clan leader would have endured it. You’re human, I couldn’t possibly go to the Western Continent to kill you. Plus you have the Beast Emperor flower. Some things should be endured when necessary.”

“But I didn’t expect you wouldn’t leave. Slapping this clan leader’s face once wasn’t enough, you want to do it again?”

“Then this clan leader will oblige you!”

His shrill voice carried anger.

Only now did Lin Moyu understand Yan Bei’s thought process. Although the result was the same as he had guessed, the process was somewhat different.

The human heart is hard to fathom. Even Lin Moyu couldn’t completely guess others’ thoughts.

Yan Bei’s expression was somewhat complex, with hatred, killing intent, and also a hint of hesitation.

He hated Lin Moyu, not only for killing his clansmen but also for slapping his face.

He wanted to kill Lin Moyu, but was also somewhat afraid because of the Beast Emperor flower, afraid the Beast Emperor would come after him.

After all, being able to obtain the Beast Emperor flower meant one was favored by the Beast Emperor. Killing him was equivalent to slapping the Beast Emperor’s face.

He had originally intended to swallow this anger, but Lin Moyu hadn’t left, which was like slapping his face once again.

This made him resolve to kill Lin Moyu and get his hands on the Soul Progenitor Beasts.

Lin Moyu showed no sign of panic, “I’m very curious, how did you come up with this method? Are you sure doing this can deceive the Beast Emperor?”

Yan Bei was also decisive, “Whether it can or not, we’ll know after I kill you. If the Beast Emperor discovers it, this clan leader will die to atone for the crime.”

Lin Moyu shook his head with a smile, “You don’t know the Beast Emperor’s temper. Just your death certainly won’t be enough. Most likely, your entire clan will have to die with you. In the future history of the beast race, your name will surely be infamous.”

What kind of name? Naturally not a good reputation.

If Lin Moyu’s words came true, Yan Bei would be the one who led the Blazing Divine Eagle clan to extinction.

Hearing Lin Moyu speak like this, the fear in Yan Bei’s eyes grew stronger, but his killing intent also increased.

Lin Moyu’s words didn’t make him give up the idea of killing. Instead, they made his resolve firmer.

Yan Bei murmured softly, “They were right. If the Beast Emperor finds out, my death alone is far from enough.”

“However, there are endless spaces here. As long as this clan leader does it cleanly enough, the Beast Emperor won’t know.”

“Even he needs evidence.”

Lin Moyu’s eyes moved slightly. The information he wanted had finally revealed a bit.

Why did he say so much nonsense here with Yan Bei? It was to get some extra information from Yan Bei’s mouth.

Earlier when Yan Bei left, it wasn’t known where he went. After returning, he came directly to find Lin Moyu. At this time, Yan Bei had acquired means to deceive the Beast Emperor.

Yan Bei didn’t have means to deceive the Beast Emperor before, but after going out once, he did.

This indicated that besides Yan Bei, there was someone hiding in the shadows.

And that existence hiding in the shadows was opposed to the Beast Emperor.

Within the beast race, the Beast Emperor had overwhelming power. No one dared to resist him. He was truly a tyrant.

But there would always be some rebels. In any era, in any race, this situation was very normal.

That existence hiding in the shadows might be one person, or it might be a group of people.

It was precisely because Lin Moyu had guessed this point that he deliberately said so much nonsense to Yan Bei, trying to get some information from his mouth.

Now Yan Bei’s inadvertent words had already proved that his guess wasn’t wrong.

Lin Moyu said, “What a pity. You really don’t know how terrifying the Beast Emperor is. You don’t know how vast the abilities of that realm are.”

Yan Bei shook his head, “The Beast Emperor is indeed powerful, but he’s not omniscient. This clan leader’s resolve to kill you is set. You don’t need to keep using the Beast Emperor to threaten me.”

“Considering you’re a human genius, this clan leader will still give you two choices. One is to hand over the Soul Progenitor Beasts, and this clan leader will give you a quick death.”

“Two is that this clan leader will imprison and suppress your soul for ten thousand years, torturing you for ten thousand years.”

Lin Moyu smiled, “We’ve already discussed this topic before. Clan Leader Yan Bei still hasn’t grown a brain!”

Seeing he couldn’t get any more information, Lin Moyu stopped talking and directly provoked Yan Bei with his words.

The phrase “hasn’t grown a brain” made Yan Bei’s anger surge.

He swung his battle blade towards Lin Moyu.

Fierce fire light seemed to tear apart heaven and earth, covering the sky as it bombarded Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu spread his Wings of Time. The wings vibrated violently, carrying him back thousands of meters as if teleporting.

Yan Bei’s blade missed. His face showed no surprise, “You can’t escape!”

A flame mark suddenly appeared on Lin Moyu’s body. Yan Bei had used Soul Lock on Lin Moyu.

Under the lock, his attacks would be hard to dodge.

At this time, Yan Bei swung his second blade, more fierce than the first.

He still hadn’t used the Fire Dao. He knew very well that his Fire Dao wouldn’t be effective against Lin Moyu.

This third-level Dao Venerable Lin Moyu seemed weak, but was very strange.

“Soul Lock?”

Lin Moyu showed disdain, calmly vibrating his Wings of Time slightly. The Soul Lock was instantly severed.

Then Lin Moyu advanced instead of retreating, again avoiding the second blade.

The power of the second blade exploded behind Lin Moyu. The entire space distorted, as if it might collapse at any moment.

The Soul Lock being severed completely exceeded Yan Bei’s imagination.

“How could you possibly sever this clan leader’s Soul Lock!”

He was eighth-level Dao Venerable, while Lin Moyu was only third-level Dao Venerable. They were five levels apart. How could he possibly sever the Soul Lock?

Lin Moyu naturally wouldn’t tell him that he was just this unreasonable.

The ability to sever Soul Locks had been inherited when the former Undead Wings evolved into the Wings of Time Curse.

This ability ignored realm differences. As long as it was a Soul Lock, it could be severed.

Even the Beast Emperor’s Soul Lock could be severed, let alone Yan Bei’s.

Yan Bei didn’t believe his Soul Lock would fail. He locked onto Lin Moyu again, swinging his battle blade, slashing out blade after blade.

The Wings of Time vibrated. Lin Moyu repeatedly severed the Soul Locks, avoiding countless blade edges.

Time became extremely fast for Lin Moyu, giving him enough reaction time. Lin Moyu freely moved through the attacks, without any pressure.

Countless attacks all missed, striking outside the space, creating numerous spatial turbulences.

Under Yan Bei’s disbelieving gaze, Lin Moyu smiled and said, “Clan Leader Yan Bei, do you have any other tricks?”

His tone was extremely mocking, full of disdain, as if saying, your Fire Dao is useless, your ranged attacks are equally useless, you’re simply trash, and eighth-level Dao Venerable trash at that.

Yan Bei’s heart was stung. He felt his face had been slapped again.

He shouted angrily, “Die!”

The battle blade in his hand flew out in response, becoming incredibly huge, then suddenly exploding.

One blade instantly became millions of blades.

The blades rained down towards Lin Moyu. At the same time, Yan Bei transformed into his true form, activating his dao true body.

His true form was a thousand-meter divine eagle. After using his dao true body, his form became even larger, exceeding three thousand meters.

The enormous divine eagle followed the blade rain in attack.

Lin Moyu retreated rapidly, not at all flustered. Instead, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, “Finally coming over!”
