Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 692: Chapter 686: Sensation and Reunion

”Look, they’re back!”

Outside the nearest city to the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

The dozen or so lords who had escaped from Lin You’s grasp quickly traversed the wilderness and returned here, immediately drawing the attention of the lords.

After all, when they set out, they had gathered more than twenty quasi-god level powerhouses. Such a grand scale was bound to attract considerable attention.

Some were even waiting on the city walls, eager to see the result of their mission.

However.

When they got a good look at those lords, they were all stunned.

”What happened? Why are there so few of them left?”

”Could it be that the others haven’t returned yet?”

”No, look at them. They seem to be injured!”

”Truly injured! And badly so!”

”Could it be that the mission failed?”

Exclamations arose on the city walls, and the lords looked in shock at the returning dozen figures.

Except for the two Level 10 Quasi-Gods, the others were all seriously injured, their clothes tattered, covered in blood, and looked extremely miserable.

Even a fool could see.

Their capture plan had failed!

The moment they reached this conclusion, everyone was astounded.

More than twenty quasi-god level powerhouses had gone to capture a lower realm lord, yet failed, losing so many in the process.

Could it really be as the rumors said, that there was a Tier Thirteen demon in the opposing territory?

Immediately.

Many who were familiar with those lords rushed forward to inquire about the specifics.

But the answer they received was that they had been severely wounded by that lower realm lord, and there wasn’t even a Tier Thirteen demon!

Boom!

In an instant, the entire city, inside and out, was in uproar.

”That lower realm lord actually drove back over twenty quasi-gods alone!?”

”And over ten died? How is that possible!”

”Even Level 10 Quasi-Gods were no match. This is too terrifying, right?”

”Is he really only Tier Twelve?”

To know, the team this time included two Level 10 Quasi-Gods leading, yet they lost to the opposing lord alone, without encountering a Tier Thirteen demon.

This news was simply unbelievable to the lords.

When representatives sent by various major powers received the news, they immediately relayed it back, causing another sensation.

Only now did they realize they had previously underestimated the strength of that lower realm lord, attributing everything to the Demon Race.

But now they found.

The very strength of that lower realm lord had already reached a level that made them wary.

No wonder the Pantheon failed to capture him despite multiple attempts; they finally understood now.

This also sparked another topic that suddenly became popular.

It was the statement Lin You had made earlier about establishing a trade city outside the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

It seemed...

Not to be baseless?

Some lords had even started secretly preparing supplies, hoping to see if they could earn some crystal stones.

In any case.

Because of Lin You’s appearance, the Eastern Divine Domain had become restless, with many sensing an unusual aura.

It was feared that in no time, something big was going to happen in the Divine Domain.

...

At this time.

In a city a bit farther from the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

Three figures gathered in a secluded courtyard, having also heard the news circulating outside.

”Do you think the lower realm lord they’re talking about might be our Lin You from the realm?”

The first to speak was a tall man sitting on the left-hand side, his expression mixed with suspicion and uncertainty.

If Lin You were here, he would definitely recognize the identities of these people at a glance.

They were the Dragon Abyss and Celestial Vault emperors from their Primordial Realm, with the third being Youluo Emperor, whom they had met once during the Life Realm Origin Conference and who had a close relationship with Xiang Yue Emperor.

Their strength was considered mid to upper level among the Ten Thousand Realms, having survived the chaos of space with some luck.

Subsequently hunted by the Pantheon, they eventually gathered here, hidden in this city under secret identities.

They initially planned to find a chance to escape the Pantheon’s sphere of influence, but the news concerning Lin You they suddenly received today disrupted all their plans.

”It should be right. Coming from the lower realm and being hunted by the Pantheon, it must be him,” Celestial Vault whispered.

”But the news says he killed over a dozen Tier Twelve lords alone. Isn’t that too exaggerated?” Dragon Abyss was filled with shock.

He wasn’t weak even back in the Ten Thousand Realms.

Upon arriving in the Divine Domain, he directly reached the Level 7 Quasi-God stage.

Yet even so, he wasn’t confident of successfully killing a Tier Twelve lord.

After being in this world for so long, he’d only managed to acquire one Legendary Species.

Lin You had just ascended to Tier Twelve not long ago, so how could he possess such terrifying strength?

”Have you forgotten, before the Ten Thousand Realms perished, his power was even stronger than Mo Tian’s, although he borrowed our Divine Format, the average person couldn’t withstand that power,” Youluo suddenly interjected.

”Indeed.” Celestial Vault nodded at these words.

”The first time I met that kid, he was only Tier Eight, and in no time, he had reached the same level as us. I’m even beginning to suspect if he’s the Main God’s illegitimate child placed in the Ten Thousand Realms, now even associating with the Demon Race.”

”Regardless of whether he is or isn’t, having someone from the Ten Thousand Realms who can confront the Pantheon head-on is ultimately a good thing.”

Youluo’s face was solemn; she did not show her usual seductive demeanor when facing her own people.

”That’s true,” Dragon Abyss agreed, ”So, should we go and find him?”

”Go, why not? Haven’t we been hunted down by the Pantheon enough during this period?”

”Exactly, so many comrades were slaughtered by them for us to escape; I can’t swallow this anger!”

With a ”bang,” Youluo slammed a fist onto the stone table beside her, fully displaying a fierce aura.

Thinking about the Pantheon’s actions towards them, sparing them neither in the Ten Thousand Realms nor in the Divine Domain, she was filled with evil qi, wanting to tear those people to pieces.

Celestial Vault was no exception.

Earlier, to cover their escape, several of his friends also fell into the Pantheon’s hands, their souls drained.

This vendetta must be avenged, no matter what!

The appearance of Lin You gave them hope for revenge, so it was impossible for them to remain indifferent.

Thus, after a discussion, the three immediately changed plans and set off for the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm where Lin You was located.

...

Entrance to the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

In the vast cyclone where the blood qi was the thinnest.

After tidying up the battlefield, Lin You quickly led the plants back to the territory and began to tally the battle’s spoils.

One must admit.

These Lords came just in time.

Just when he was troubled by the lack of crystal stones to buy resources, they eagerly came over to deliver crystal stones, solving his urgent needs.

He counted; this time he had killed a total of 13 Lords.

No matter how poor, each one could at least spare two or three thousand, totaling over thirty thousand crystal stones, which should be enough for him to acquire the next batch of resources sent by the Lords.

Initially, he planned to absorb them all to enhance his strength.

But it couldn’t be helped.

The Demon Leader was pressing too hard.

Especially after tasting the benefits of the last batch of resources, they quickly came over asking him to collect more; these were not enough even for their subordinates.

[Would you like to use the ”Resource Treasure Pearl (Tier Twelve)”?]

Just after taking out the 13 treasure pearls, a prompt sounded in his ear.

”Use them all.”

[Congratulations, you’ve gained the following resources:]

[Tier Twelve Crystal Stones x45087]

[Tier Eleven Crystal Stones x7900]

[Tier Ten Crystal Stones x1010]

[Legendary Species Token Fragment x2]

...

Forty-five thousand?

Lin You’s gaze was astonished; this was more than he had expected.

Plus the few thousand he deliberately saved from before, now he had exactly fifty thousand Tier Twelve crystal stones.

As for the crystal stones below Tier Twelve, due to their low energy content, they were not much help to Tier Twelve Lords.

So hardly any were kept; the 13 Lords together barely reached ten thousand.

After organizing the spoils, he then got up and went to the World Tree, spending over a thousand crystal stones to replenish the lost species.

Then he brought the species outside to continue improving the surroundings of his territory.

Until the afternoon, the peace in his territory was suddenly disrupted by several unexpected guests.

”Lin You, it really is you!”

A familiar call came from the distant sky.

Lin You, who was instructing the Elf Elders to plant trees, stopped his actions and looked up in puzzlement.

When he recognized the three figures riding flying mounts, his gaze suddenly brightened.

”Dragon Abyss Emperor, Celestial Vault Emperor, Youluo Emperor! How is it you all??”

Indeed.

The ones rushing over from afar were none other than these three Great Emperors of the Ten Thousand Realms.

Two of them were even from their Primordial Realm!

He hadn’t expected his disseminated messages to show results so quickly; after just two days, three Great Emperors had found him.

The task at hand was immediately dropped, and he hurriedly went to welcome them with Lingxi and Shadowless.

”Royal Family!”

The three just landed, and seeing the species beside him, their expressions changed.

Back in the Ten Thousand Realms, their contact with Lin You wasn’t much, so they hadn’t noticed the species by his side.

But coming to the Divine Domain and learning about the complete species system, they now understood how terrifying the Royal Family was.

And Lin You’s species turned out to be the Royal Family!

This was something they hadn’t anticipated at all.

After the shock, they finally understood why Lin You could kill so many Tier Twelve Lords.

”No wonder....”

Celestial Vault muttered softly, a look of sudden realization on his face.

Dragon Abyss and Youluo also had vibrating gazes, staring intently at the two Royal Families beside Lin You.

Compared to them, the legendary species by their side seemed quite inferior.

However, having once been dominators of a realm, they quickly regained their composure, flipping off their mounts to the ground and joining Lin You.
