Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7889
Chapter 7805: Mysterious Giant Beast?
“Remember, to outsiders, you are all my offspring, but you know the truth in your hearts,” the Chaos Demon Emperor sneered.
Hun Sha glanced up, then pressed his advantage, “Father, since he has made such a reckless choice, shouldn’t we sever our father-son relationship? He betrayed Lord Han and chose the Great Wall of the Martial Immortal North Crown, which might affect your relationship with Lord Han. If we sever ties, it can be said that he acted on his own.”
“That’s not urgent. Perhaps we’ll need him in the future. If he really causes some trouble, I can still cut ties with him then,” the Chaos Demon Emperor chuckled.
In short, he only used Hun Qing without giving him any benefits.
When he was useful, he still treated Hun Qing as a son; when he was no longer needed, he cut him off completely.
This approach could only be described as truly treating Hun Qing as an outsider.
Perhaps before, he still had some thoughts of taking back Hun Qing and giving him some benefits, but because of Hun Qing’s current decision, the Chaos Demon Emperor’s views had changed.
“That’s true. Let’s squeeze every last drop out of him first. He’s been surviving for so long under the guise of the Chaotic Demon Royal Family; we can’t let him get rid of it so easily.” Hun Sha nodded, sneering, “By the time I rise to the top of the Republic of the Divine Heaven, he’ll probably still be a mere soldier, destined to die far from home at the hands of foreign races. Those foreign races are no joke…”
In truth, even with the status of a Ten Thousand Battles Scholar, Hun Sha wasn’t at ease.
The throne was only truly secure when it was in his own hands. To compete with Hun Qing after he had grown up?
Hun Sha didn’t want that.
Hun Qing, after all, possessed a bloodline of ancestral reversion; Hun Sha felt a sense of dread just from a glance—a suppression stemming from his demonic bloodline.
Even without the convenience of the Ten Thousand Battles Scholar status, Hun Qing’s talent was so high that if he got lucky outside, someone might take a liking to him.
If Hun Qing had other opportunities then, Hun Sha might still be unable to control him.
Therefore, adding fuel to the fire between Hun Qing and the Chaotic Demon Emperor was a safeguard Hun Sha had secured for himself.
The Chaos Demon Emperor was clearly disappointed in Hun Qing as well. Even without these words, he wouldn’t have focused his attention on Hun Qing anymore.
…
Myriad Realms Ruins.
Inspector Han received a message as soon as he arrived at the Myriad Realms Eternal Empire.
“Lord Han, Hun Qing ignored the benefits you offered and went to the Great Wall of the Martial Immortal Northern Crown. That brat is ungrateful and doesn’t respect you at all!” A figure on the communication star tower said indignantly.
“It doesn’t matter. He’ll regret it in the future. I don’t need him.” Inspector Han said indifferently.
He seemed genuinely uninterested in Hun Qing’s whereabouts.
After all, he was an inspector of the inner borders, wielding immense power there, and had a greater advantage when selecting geniuses in the Myriad Sects Emperor War.
The other end of the communication star tower was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Inspector Han’s reaction.
However, he couldn’t care less about anything else and continued, “Lord Han, the top scholar Li Tianming also went…”
Inspector Han’s eyes flickered slightly, showing some surprise.
“I know.”
After saying that, he directly ended the communication.
“Unexpectedly, there’s this twist. This woman must be furious. Someone as arrogant as her probably didn’t think Li Tianming would leave until the Ancient Martial Immortal approached him,” Inspector Han sneered.
For Inspector Han, Li Tianming’s decision not to follow Inspector Liu was a good thing. In terms of the
grudge between him and Inspector Liu, the Great Wall of the Northern Corona of the Martial Immortal was certainly inferior to the Republic of the Divine Heaven. With
fewer potential ‘seeds’ to cultivate, and someone who wanted to destroy him making a foolish decision, he was indeed happy.
Admittedly, the Great Wall of the Northern Corona of the Martial Immortal offered opportunities for advancement to those without connections.
However, very few could truly carve out their own path.
The Great Wall of the Northern Corona of the Martial Immortal might have a higher ceiling, but the Republic of the Divine Heaven had a higher and more stable floor!
This was why some people, knowing that a powerful background was required to enter the Republic of the Divine Heaven, still chose to try.
As soon as Inspector Han finished delivering the message, a figure rushed over.
“Your subordinate, Wan Jing, greets Lord Han!”
The newcomer was none other than the elegant and refined Emperor Wan Jing, whose imperial majesty was undiminished.
“Hmm.” Inspector Han nodded and said, “Come with me to see the crime scene of that thief.”
“Yes!” Emperor Wan Jing nodded emphatically.
Neither of them had any attendants with them, and they quickly left Wan Jing Ruins together, arriving at the Wan Jing Divine Treasure Mine.
The two places were very close, and it only took a short time.
“…”
Inspector Han stood with his hands behind his back, silently surveying the scene.
This area, which should have been filled with Divine Treasure Mine and guarded by countless Divine Treasure Army soldiers, was now riddled with holes.
Many buildings made of Divine Treasure Stone had become ruins, and large areas of Divine Treasure Mine in the form of mines had been gnawed into pits.
This destruction was random and did not resemble a purposeful plunder of Divine Treasure Mine at all; rather, it looked like vegetable leaves being gnawed by insects.
Most importantly, due to the damage to the camp, the Divine Treasure Army had been significantly reduced. Although patrols were present in most areas after the redeployment, they appeared scattered and disorganized.
“How many Divine Treasure Army soldiers were lost?” Inspector Han asked calmly.
“Reporting to Lord Han, that murderer is ruthless; over a hundred million Divine Treasure Army soldiers have likely disappeared, most likely dead…” Emperor Wanjing’s eyes were red with anger, and his body trembled slightly as he spoke.
An army is an indispensable part of a nation; losing over a hundred million Divine Treasure Army soldiers is a devastating loss, impacting national strength.
Following Emperor Wanjing, Inspector Han personally inspected the area.
However, he found no suspicious traces.
It was as if the Divine Treasure Stones and the Divine Treasure Army soldiers had all evaporated on the spot.
Xiao Jiu’s Dark Universe could conceal traces of power, but the gaps in the chewed-up Divine Treasure Stones couldn’t be hidden.
Inspector Han stroked a section of a building missing a corner, his brow furrowed.
Then, based on what he saw, he slowly said, “The other party is likely not human, but a gigantic beast with the ability to conceal itself.”
“A beast? But where did this beast come from?” The Heavenly Emperor of Myriad Realms was somewhat bewildered.
“Perhaps it is some kind of special beast. Since it is so obsessed with the Divine Treasure Stone, it is very likely to reappear. I will wait here for a while and call for reinforcements.” Inspector Han said calmly, “Perhaps I alone can capture it, but it is after all strange. Without setting up a net, it will be difficult to make it reveal its true form.”
“Understood, Lord Han. Since you’ve made this decision, please come to the military camp. I’ll prepare a welcoming feast for you, guaranteed to satisfy you,” the Emperor of Myriad Realms said meaningfully.
Inspector Han glanced at him indifferently and remained silent.
The Emperor of Myriad Realms knew this was tacit agreement.
Therefore, he immediately began preparations.
Remembering his seventh son, who had been partying every night in the military camp and was now missing, the Emperor of Myriad Realms first went to inquire about the location of his ‘beauty warehouse.’
Since there were plenty available, and besides, the person was dead, why not use them…
