Beastmaster of the Ages Chapter 1385 - Five Million Yin Chens

Chapter 1385 Five Million Yin Chens

Tianming already thought it was miraculous enough that Xian Xian was able to confuse armies on the battlefield, yet his fifth Primordial Chaos Beast had completely exceeded his expectations.

Sect Master Yun, I need your help, Tianming cordially said.

No way! Yun Tianque said.

Fine. Ill let you have a taste of the pleasure. Ill stop when you agree.

Dont force me to kill myself.

Feel free. I can just switch to Lu Yuanji, its all the same to me. Though itll be a little hard to unite your sect with you gone, Lu Yuanji also has her own form of influence. Ill still be able to use her to my own ends. Not to mention, you promised your children that you were going to take them fishing. Dont forget it.

Are you threatening me with them?

Youre overthinking it. I wont do anything to them, I just think its a shame that a father would break a promise with his children over stubborn pride rather than becoming a brave revolutionary.

Youre shameless!

Whoa! Enough with the flattery!

The bonegnaw ants went to work, causing Yun Tianque to writhe and twitch to the point that his tears uncontrollably flowed and veins pulsed. He clawed at his throat, but he couldnt even cry out in pain. The pain lasted seventeen breaths of time.

I wanted to wait a little bit more, but one pair of the divine trees saplings is already dead. Didnt you feel bad when you heard the cry of the divine tree?

Ugh... ugh.... Even after it all ended, Yun Tianque was still clawing at the ground with his hands, and Tianmings reminder about the divine tree was rubbing salt on the wound. This junior didnt mess around at all and had experienced far more things than those of his age, including three years of struggles and despair at his lowest point.

Yun Tianque took a deep breath and said, Fine, the ore mines are all yours. He closed his eyes and gripped his fists tight.

Thank you, Senior Yun. Dont agonize over it. One day, youll come to thank yourself for having made the right decision. It all turned out as Tianming had planned. No matter how much Yun Tianque wanted to deny it, the situation of his sect, and the divine tree, as well as the threat of the bonegnaw ants gave him no choice but to side with Tianming. His mouth might be stubborn, but his body was quick to learn to fear the pain.

Enough of your brainwashing. Im not buying it, Yun Tianque said.

Youre mistaken. This isnt brainwashing. I was just thinking that if I were your son, Id definitely hope that youre a hero rather than a traitor. If you were the latter, itd leave a bad taste for the rest of my life.

Isnt submitting to you the same as betraying my sect?

Its not the same. The wargodeans and Blueblood Starocean are subjugating you with sheer violence, and theyll make you kneel to them for the rest of your life. However, I only need you to cooperate with me for a time. When the time is right, I will release you. Perhaps we can even be friends.

Youll let me go? How can I trust you? The last thing he wanted was to remain in this nightmare.

It isnt something Im willing to promise yet. Well see how things go. The point is if you dare to revolt against them and stand with me, Ill eventually dare to release you. It depends on how well you do.

Yun Tianque stayed silent.

I still have to thank you. Now, all the mines on the Azurecloud Continent are mine, so Ill be able to increase the body count of my lifebound beast to five million.

When will you show me its main body? Yun Tianque asked, curious as to what kind of monster it was. His imagination was running wild.

Theres no rush. Youll see it one day. In fact, he already had. Even the smallest of bonegnaw ants was just as real as Yin Chens other bodies.

......

The Blueblood Starocean, Empyrean Sword Sect, and wargodeans soon formed perimeters around the thirty-five spots where the saplings had sprouted. The two swordlords left the Azuresoul Sword Mountain to go to the front lines, staring down at the enemies across the border. The entire continent was permeated by killing intent.

There was one thing the two sides shared in common: they each saw the saplings as treasures that they shouldnt destroy no matter what. That was why Tianming was willing to use the saplings to fan the flames of conflict between the two sides. They would be expending their own lives to defend the sapling sites.

There was an additional twist to the plan; Yan Nuxia and her thousands of allies from her sect went to the Empyrean Sword Sect to cause trouble after finding out about the saplings. Long Wanying also applied pressure as the representative of the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect. No matter what, they couldnt be lazy with keeping up the act. It would be most unnatural if they didnt do anything after word of the saplings appearance had spread.

After much arguing and threats, the Group of Celestial Maiden Halls obtained the right to guard two pairs of saplings instead of the half they had originally demanded, not that they had much of a choice. There were only a few thousand of them, while the Empyrean Sword Sect had a hundred and ten thousand swordpupils. The fact that they even got two was thanks to Long Wanyings quick wit in negotiating.

Naturally, she made sure to choose the two pairs that were closer to the sect, which made their assignment safer. There was little chance they would clash with the other side while defending there. All of it was to create the false impression that the Azuresoul Palace was on the Empyrean Sword Sects side. Not to mention, guarding the saplings didnt necessarily mean that they would be given the saplings at the very end, so the Empyrean Sword Sect wasnt too bothered by it. At the very least, they believed that they already had half of the continent under their control, a sentiment that was shared by Li Wushuang and the others on the opposite side.

......

Large numbers of cultivators had gathered around the thirty-five sapling sites for the past two days. Yin Chen reported that Li Wushuang had left with Li Haochen, the Tumulus Pill God, Yun Tianque, and the rest toward the Azuresoul Sword Mountain.

Whatre they going to do here? Long Wanying asked.

Li Haochen broke through to the ninth level and grew greatly in strength. Li Wushuang prevented him from leaving because she couldnt stand the fact that the celestial orderians lost. Now she wants him to fight me in a rematch to regain their lost honor, Tianming nonchalantly said.

Heh. Thats her personality, alright. She never admits her losses, and even if she truly has lost, she disregards all other rules and continues trying to oppress others. Shell stoop to using any underhanded trick in the book, like an obsessed demon who thinks her destiny is to win every single battle she fights.

Only Li Wushuang could pull off something like forcefully dragging her nephew into a rematch for her own lost honor. Her pride as one of the hegemons of the sun ran too deep in her bones.
