Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7692
Chapter 7607: Kui
Deep within Prince Yuan’s residence, in a secluded space,
lay a hundred layers of top-tier Dao arrays, sealing it off. These arrays not only defended against attacks from top-tier experts but also isolated all auras, surpassing even the sealing of the Star Realm.
Within this secret chamber, the atmosphere was dim, with only faint starlight illuminating the faces of several people.
An elderly man sat upright, leaning back in his seat, hands resting on the armrests, eyes closed in meditation.
Before him stood a pair of distinguished young men and women.
As the starlight shifted and shone on their faces, it became clear that these three were none other than Prince Yuan, Ji Xuanjing, and Ji Yinyan!
“This Li Tianming, a mere outsider, has dared to offend so many inland forces in the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial War. He’s completely squandered his potential,” Ji Xuanjing said with a cold laugh.
Ji Yinyan also gloated, “Does he really think being selected as a candidate for the Martial Immortal Group assessment means he can rest easy? As long as he hasn’t shaken off his identity as an outsider, he’ll always be someone others can manipulate at will…”
“This time, with Uncle Ba’s intervention, there’s absolutely no chance of failure. Any third-tier Great Ruins Realm expert who drags this little bastard into the Star Boundary will be doomed.” Ji Xuanjing said with an extremely cold gaze.
To this day, his Cosmic God Body is still in a state of nurturing, and the injuries from the four times his origins have been exposed are not so easy to recover from.
Therefore, Ji Xuanjing’s hatred for Li Tianming is also immense; he wishes he could tear Li Tianming to pieces!
Beside him, Ji Yinyan’s hatred was no less intense.
Joining the Republic of the Divine Heaven was such a precious opportunity, yet it was all lost because of Li Tianming’s existence.
Only by directing her hatred towards Li Tianming could she somewhat conceal the fact that she lost to this outsider whom she looked down upon.
“Having offended so many people and caused so much trouble during the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial War, you still dare to swagger around with your mistress. In reality, even if our people hadn’t made a move, the other humiliated inner forces would have,” Ji Yinyan said with a deep, cold smile.
“You brought it on yourself. How can you survive in this world without a powerful backer? You don’t really think that knowing Ji Qingyue for the duration of the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial War makes you your backer, do you?” Ji Xuanjing chuckled.
Both of them were in good spirits, seemingly waiting for some excellent news.
Prince Yuan remained motionless and silent, simply waiting quietly.
Time slowly passed…
However, quite some time had passed, and the news they were hoping for still hadn’t arrived.
“Why hasn’t Uncle Ba’s news come back yet?” Ji Xuanjing frowned slightly.
“That’s unlikely. He’s a powerhouse with the body of a thirty-light-year-old god. He could easily wipe out a mere child under ten thousand years old, let alone a small sect like Li Tianming.” Ji Yinyan’s eyebrows furrowed, a strange feeling welling up inside her.
“Wait a little longer.” Prince Yuan remained seated with his eyes closed, uttering only a few words.
Ji Yinyan and Ji Xuanjing exchanged glances, ultimately suppressing their doubts.
Some time passed, but the news they were waiting for still hadn’t arrived.
The powerhouse known as ‘Uncle Ba’ had vanished without a trace since his attack.
Finally, Prince Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his voice low and deep, “Let’s go see.”
Even with his patience, he couldn’t sit still any longer.
A top-tier expert taking so long to deal with a young man under ten thousand years old like Li Tianming? That was impossible!
Ji Xuanjing and Ji Yinyan dared not say anything more at this moment. They were unsure of Prince Yuan’s thoughts and could only silently follow. Given their
prominent status, they couldn’t simply appear directly while on “business,” as that would draw too much attention.
Thus, three figures vanished from the secret chamber, while three people dressed in black robes quickly appeared on the streets of Fengxu.
Their faces were completely concealed, making them impossible to discern.
Although a few passersby were curious, they didn’t pay much attention. After all, Fengxu was the capital of the Qianfeng Eternal Empire, as well as its administrative center and transportation hub, with countless people coming and going, and many who didn’t want to reveal their identities. They were no exception.
Prince Yuan, the slightly taller figure, frowned slightly as he looked at a certain street. “The residual power of the Annihilation Realm…”
He led the other two slightly smaller figures towards that street.
Finally, Prince Yuan crouched down and touched the ground beneath the Guanzizai Realm.
“It completely disappears here.”
His brows furrowed even more.
Ji Yinyan and Ji Xuanjing looked around carefully, but apart from passing pedestrians, they found no further traces.
There was no sound of battle, nor any sign of fighting; it was as calm as if nothing had happened.
However, the residual power of the Annihilation Realm was real, though so weak as to be almost invisible.
“How is this possible? A powerful figure like Uncle Ba could just vanish without a trace in the Beacon Ruins, as if he had evaporated into thin air?” Ji Xuanjing was somewhat incredulous.
“Could it be that they actually succeeded, but just haven’t had time to send back the message?” Ji Yinyan asked, her tone slightly tense.
However, Prince Yuan shook his head and said slowly, “Most likely, something happened to him.”
“What? But he’s just a disciple of a small sect; how could he possibly have a powerful figure of this level by his side?” Incredulity showed on Ji Xuanjing’s face beneath his black robe.
Ji Yinyan trembled as she said, “And to achieve this, one must have overwhelming strength. To possess the strength to crush a third-tier Great Ruins Light-Year God, what kind of powerhouse would that be?”
“Perhaps this is the truth. There is a powerful figure by his side, even ‘Baili Ba’ is no match for him.” Prince Yuan’s face was also extremely grim.
Baili Ba had actually followed Prince Yuan for a long time, helping him with many things that couldn’t be made public.
And now, such a capable assistant was missing because of Li Tianming, which was naturally hard for Prince Yuan to accept.
Ji Yinyan fell into deep thought. After a long while, she suddenly widened her eyes, “Could it be that the blonde woman by his side is actually the one who is the most deeply hidden, she is the powerful figure by Li Tianming’s side?”
In fact, Prince Yuan knew Li Tianming’s whereabouts in advance, which is why he arranged for Baili Ba to take action. At that time, the only person walking with Li Tianming was Jiang Feiling!
Prince Yuan pondered for a moment, then slowly said, “Very likely.”
“Father, what should we do? Should we send stronger people to deal with him?” Ji Xuanjing asked anxiously.
Faced with this question, Prince Yuan shook his head and said, “If we stir up trouble now, the other side will probably be on guard, and it will be difficult to succeed. We can only stop for now and observe the situation.”
