"What do you mean by killing Yu Fei?
Xu Mu, do you think this Old Man is a three-year-old child? Randomly coming up with a name, let alone the Slaughter Domain! "The old man's eyes were gloomy as he shouted.
Wang Lin's expression was calm. He didn't even look at the old man and instead looked at Master Flamespark.
Master Flamespark stared at Wang Lin. The coldness on his face slowly eased and he said, "The Cultivation Alliance does indeed have the Slaughter Realm and the Soul Killer Attendant. However, how can you prove that the Soul Killer Attendant didn't die to your hands?"
After Master Flamespark spoke, the old man beside him no longer spoke.
Wang Lin's face was expressionless as he slapped his bag of holding and the remaining half of the Heavenly Lightning Tree appeared in his hand. There were even arcs of lightning moving around it. Wang Lin threw it at Master Flamespark.
As the thunder rumbled, the branch closed in on Master Flamespark and was caught by his right hand. He carefully looked at it and immediately recognized it as one of the treasures from the Slaughter Realm. With his cultivation level, he immediately felt two forces colliding with it. One was obviously Wang Lin's, and the other was a monstrous killing intent!
"That's right, it's the Slaughter Domain Sword Energy of a vice sovereign of the Slaughter Domain!" Master Flamespark's gaze toward Wang Lin was filled with admiration.
He glanced at the Heaven and Earth Lightning Branch in his hand, then tossed it back to Wang Lin. He smiled and said, "Alright, Xu Mu, you can cultivate here in peace. In a month's time, when the Luo Tian's reinforcements arrive, you can follow them straight into the northern region of the Alliance!"
Wang Lin respectfully cupped his fists and acknowledged.
As Master Flamespark laughed, he meaningfully looked at the big-headed boy in the distance. Then he turned around and left. As for the old man beside him, he quickly followed.
As the two of them walked forward, their figures disappeared into the distance.
Wang Lin's expression was the same as usual, but he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. When he came to the western region of the Alliance and entered the Luo Tian's sphere of influence, he already had a plan in his heart. That was why he took the risk to retrieve the broken branch of the Heavenly Lightning Tree during his battle with Yu Fei. It was all to gain the trust of others.
Among the stars, Master Flamespark's gratification disappeared and was replaced with an expressionless face. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry. The old man beside him suddenly thought of something and said, "Lord, I think this Xu Mu is obviously lying. Moreover, the big-headed boy is also one of the Heaven Celestials, but he is obviously being controlled by Xu Mu!
In my opinion … "
Master Flamespark turned around and coldly looked at the old man. This gaze caused the old man's body to tremble and he swallowed the second half of his words.
After withdrawing his gaze, Master Flamespark walked into the void.
"This Xu Mu … is not simple!
"There are four forces between his eyebrows, but even with my cultivation level, I can only see through one of them. It is obvious that the one I can see through is the weakest!" Master Flamespark pondered as he walked among the stars.
The one force he could see made Master Flamespark dispel his original thoughts. He let out a sigh. He was familiar with that force. To be exact, it was Rosefinch's mark.
Only someone at his cultivation level could see the mark between his eyebrows.
"This Xu Mu wasn't this strange before he returned to the Alliance. It was only after he went missing that something strange appeared … Rosefinch's mark … That person helped me in the past. Forget it!" Master Flamespark shook his head. With one step, he disappeared with the old man.
The news of Xu Mu's return spread in a short period of time. After all, Xu Mu's name was famous across the Luo Tian Continent. Soon, almost all the Luo Tian cultivators knew that Xu Mu had returned.
The most annoyed person was Xu Ting. After he heard the news, he pondered for a moment and then charged out with his team of cultivators. He was looking for a cultivation planet to vent the anger in his heart.
As for Wang Lin, it was the rainy season on the abandoned planet he was on. The rain continued to fall and shrouded a small portion of the planet. From a distance, it looked like the world was divided by the rain. Even one's gaze seemed to distort, as if they couldn't see through the rain.
On the earth, the dust had dissipated and fused with the rain, forming ditches on the ground. As the rain fell, some of the sand was moved forward by the water.
The leaves on the plants gave off the sound of raindrops hitting the ground. The rain flowed down from the edges of the leaves and gathered at the bottom. It was like a line that fell like the milky way.
There were also many fierce beasts that were looking for a place to rest to avoid the rain.
Only some small beasts that liked water would travel through the rain in this continuous rainy season.
Inside the mist, the mountain Wang Lin was on stood straight. At the top of the mountain, the big-headed boy stared at the endless rain and silently pondered.
The restrictive spell on the mountain peak did not specifically stop the rain from falling. As such, the peak of the mountain was also covered in rain. Looking at the rain, Big-head recalled his childhood. At that time, he would always stare blankly at the rain falling from the sky during the rainy season.
He still remembered that when he was banished from his family, it was also a rainy night like this. In a daze, he was pushed out of his home and fell into the muddy water. At that time, he still had a silly smile on his face, but this smile was a bit sad.
As he fell into the muddy water, his clothes were soaked by the rain. Looking at the lightning and the rumbling thunder in the sky, the big-headed boy's heart ached.
He knew that he looked ugly, but in order not to be hated, he always wore a smile on his face. Even when his mother slapped him in annoyance, he still squeezed out a smile. Even when his siblings bullied him, he still smiled.
Even so, the result was still the same. In that rainy night, his smile gradually disappeared and he staggered into the distance with a dazed expression.
His body was very small, as if he could fall at any moment under the rumbling thunder.
The big-headed boy touched his chest and looked at Tashan and Lei Ji in the distance. Then he looked at Wang Lin. For some reason, there was a trace of warmth in his heart.
In his mind, he would never be able to forget that several days ago, when he was about to self-destruct in despair, a pair of hands had pulled him out of that life and death crisis. A figure had occupied the world in front of him.
Lei Ji was also looking at the rain and comprehending his talent. In this relatively quiet environment, he unconsciously thought back to his past.
They were forced to leave Giant Demon Planet with hatred in their hearts. Accompanied by their clansmen, they escaped from Giant Demon Planet and wandered the starry sky in a daze.
At that time, he was very confused. There was a sea of blood in his heart, but he was powerless to do anything.
He had no choice but to go far away. If he was one step late, he would never have the chance to leave Giant Demon Planet.
While confused, he brought his family to Suzaku. At that time, the son of Rosefinch was on Suzaku, and his name was Ye Wuyou. Under Ye Wuyou's leadership, a large number of cultivators gathered around him and began a great battle with the native inhabitants of the planet, the Forsaken Immortal Clan, who were good at using tattoos!
A planet that was originally filled with spiritual energy was turned into a wasteland during this great battle.
Beside Ye Wuyou was a person that Lei Ji didn't like. He remembered that person's name was Situ Nan.
This person was extremely arrogant and his way of doing things was almost demonic.
In comparison, he liked Ye Wuyou more. When the Giant Demon Clan arrived, they were treated with great hospitality by Ye Wuyou. Ye Wuyou didn't hesitate to give a large piece of land to Lei Ji as a gift.
This piece of land wasn't close to the Forsaken Immortal Clan; it was very far away and very safe.
Lei Ji had no way to repay Ye Wuyou, so he could only pick up his axe and kill his way into the Forsaken Immortal Clan. He fought several people and took their heads to repay Ye Wuyou!
Looking back at his past life, Lei Ji felt very regretful. He wasn't like how he looked on the surface; on the contrary, he was very cunning. After tens of thousands of years of experience, he had seen too many things. It was just that he had been imprisoned by Shiyin for too long that his mind was a bit blurry.
It was because he was very cunning that Lei Ji agreed to become Wang Lin's mount without any hesitation. After many secret observations, he realized that if he followed Wang Lin, he might one day return to Giant Demon Planet for revenge!
In particular, during the battle before, when Wang Lin's roar shook his mind, all of his schemes collapsed. The only thing that remained was the will from his ancestor's inheritance that yielded to the will of the person who roared.
It was also at that moment that his decision to follow Wang Lin became firm.
"Just being a mount won't be valued. Everything will depend on my Giant Demon Clan's spells!" Thinking about this, Lei Ji closed his eyes and continued to immerse himself in his own bloodline.
As Wang Lin sat in the lotus position, rain fell from the sky and landed on his body. Slivers of coldness entered his body through the rain as he slowly cultivated. His divine sense spread out with the mountain he was sitting on as the center.
His divine sense split into countless fragments as he tried to merge with the rainwater. However, every time his divine sense entered, the rainwater would fall to the ground and dissipate. At the same time, his divine sense would also spread out.
This cycle repeated itself. The rain seemed to have no resistance to Wang Lin's divine sense, but it was because there was no resistance that the rain fell to the ground and dissipated. This was something Wang Lin couldn't stop.
As his divine sense continued to fuse with the rain, Wang Lin gradually became immersed. Suddenly, he seemed to hear his own comprehension from a long time ago.
"This rain is born in the Heavens and dies in the Earth. The process in between is life. The reason I look at the rain is not at the Heavens or the Earth, nor at the rain itself. I look at the life of the rain …. That is life and death!
Wang Lin's body suddenly trembled and he opened his eyes. He stared at the rain before him and muttered to himself, "I have understood life and death. All that remains is the rain's origin …"
