The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 1281 - 1282: The Predator Behind (7th Update)
The words of the leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race awakened his companions; their pupils contained divine light, condensed information, and rushed out, dashing towards the void in all directions.
This scene allowed the leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race to breathe a sigh of relief.
So much divine light carrying information flew out at incredible speeds; the opponent should not be able to intercept them.
In one breath, the divine light born from the pupils would escape into the void, leave this sealed world, and convey the information back.
Intercepting them is simply impossible.
But it was precisely when this supposedly unstoppable divine light was soaring into the air that it suddenly halted, as if some invisible force had immobilized them. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
However, the divine light was only held in place for a very short time — just two or three breaths — before it escaped into the void.
Seeing the divine light finally shake off its shackles and slip into the void, these people also breathed a sigh of relief.
The leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race also turned his gaze towards Lin Qian’s direction, looking quite smug, "So what if you won this battle? In the end, it is us who prevails."
"Danger needs to be strangled in its cradle before it grows. You’ve buried your Empire’s future yourself, hahaha..."
Accompanied by his laughter, his companions also laughed, their expressions filled with pride, as if they had Lin Qian completely cornered.
After laughing, the leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race noticed that Lin Qian’s face lacked the anger he had expected, instead, Lin Qian was looking at him with a half-smile.
In the sky, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master descended simultaneously, arriving beside Lin Qian: "Your Majesty, the task has been completed."
Lin Qian nodded, appearing very satisfied.
For some reason, the leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race felt uneasy: "What do you mean?"
"Originally, I intended to intercept your divine light, but then thought, if I did, it might catch your attention," Lin Qian said with a smile. "Why not alter the information in your divine light and send misinformation back instead; wouldn’t that be more advantageous?"
"So, the message your divine light is carrying back will report that you suffered an ambush from those transcendent forces, resulting in your defeat."
"Additionally, the matters concerning Flame Gold Clan and Cold Earth Clan have also been blamed on those transcendent forces."
"Thanks to you, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to shift focus so easily and keep the Huaxia Empire in a secretive state," Lin Qian’s words made their spines chill.
Although his smile seemed gentle, in reality, it was the smile of a demon.
"Ah ah!" The leading Eight-Pupil Divine Race, overwhelmed with anger, spat out fresh blood, his eyes glazed over, lifeless.
He obliterated his own soul, seeking only death.
Because at this moment, they had completely lost, handing countless benefits to the enemy, even helping confuse their own kind.
As the saying goes, the more you do, the more you err; and he could only atone for his mistakes with his death to find some inner solace.
The others, feeling as if they’ve fallen into an ice cellar, still unwilling to admit defeat, resisted desperately.
"Kill!" Bai Qi couldn’t hold back any longer, stepped forward, unleashed his strength, and the God-Slaying Scythe transformed into a blood-red whirlwind, shredding the opponents to pieces.
On the other side, Sun Wukong was also itching to fight, striking down one enemy after another, taking away the lives of four.
In a flash, the minister who sacrificed himself to summon reinforcements had completely perished.
The residual soul of the minister closed his four eyes, unable to bear witnessing such a scene.
Why did it turn out this way, how did it turn out this way?
At this moment, the minister’s residual soul roared inside, unable to believe what he had experienced.
The Huaxia Empire, mysterious and unpredictable, the young Human Clan Master, with tactics as high as the sky, was impossible to grasp, completely having controlled them from start to finish with no chance for retaliation.
"You all may withdraw now." Standing in the void, Lin Qian spoke with hands behind his back.
Everyone nodded, kneeled on one knee to show respect.
In the next moment, their figures vanished from the spot, the puppet bodies returning to the Xuanhuan Star.
Only a thousand elite guards remained, alongside Han Xin and Yang Jian.
They were to continue fighting in this Star Domain and completely take over Boundary Country.
Outside, Wei Ziliang looked anxious and worried because he clearly saw Yang Huanwen and others charging onto the warship where Lin Qian was, and then the enormous void warship vanished without a trace, causing great amazement.
However, Nezha beside him reassured that there was no problem, and the majesty was safe, which slightly eased his concerns.
The slaughtering on the main star was settled by the sixth day of Lin Qian’s disappearance.
Wei Ziliang still waited in the void, anticipating Lin Qian’s return.
Although Nezha, Bai Qi, and others kept assuring him everything was fine, he couldn’t help but worry, waiting alone.
Until a month after Lin Qian’s disappearance, the previously vanished warship reappeared in the void.
Lin Qian, along with Han Xin and Yang Jian, still stood on that warship’s deck, but there were now a thousand guards beside them, clad in golden armor, escorting on both sides.
Seeing Lin Qian’s appearance brought Wei Ziliang great peace of mind, and he rushed forward: "Young Master, you really scared me."
Lin Qian was aware of Wei Ziliang guarding outside.
Sun Wukong and others had their true bodies on Xuanhuan Star, controlling two puppet bodies simultaneously, one outside, one inside the sealed world, aware of the situation outside.
"In future, if Empire’s forces report I’m fine, there’s no need for concern; they are connected with me in soul communication," Lin Qian chuckled twice, explaining, "If they say all is well, then it’s fine."
Wei Ziliang nodded, yet remained stubborn in this aspect, "Even so, I must keep watch; it’s better to be safe than sorry!"
His words were firm and resolute.
Lin Qian felt a warmth inside, understanding his concern, and nodded: "Alright, I won’t say any more."
"By the way, what just happened?" Filled with curiosity, Wei Ziliang couldn’t help but ask.
Thus, Lin Qian, having leisure, narrated the events one by one: "Inside the sealed world..."
After listening, Wei Ziliang was also dumbfounded.
He felt anxious when hearing about the minister sacrificing himself to summon reinforcements, thinking it would be perilous, never expecting the subsequent developments to be so effortless.
"This is truly... If the Master knew, I fear he wouldn’t believe it, right?" Wei Ziliang gasped, finding his young master increasingly incomprehensible.
"Next, let’s see if the treasure vault on the main star will surprise me."
