Chapter 1499 Primordial Killing Intent
On the battlefield’s rear, a patch of darkness receded like a tide, with Lu Baoyou and Fang Mo’s figures, frozen in time, still standing intact on the ground.
Lu Baoyou was covered in blood, holding a straight knife against Fang Mo’s neck, seemingly about to behead him in the next moment, yet his face showed no expression. Fang Mo stared intently at Lu Baoyou, his thoughts unknown.
Lin Qiye stood before these two, examining them carefully, deep in thought.
When he arrived here with Lingbao Tianzun, these two were already like this, undoubtedly affected by the law of time… but Wang Mian had clearly gone with the other Daxia gods to resist the Black Goat offspring, so it was impossible for him to have come here earlier to freeze time.
Could it be that a future Wang Mian used [Time Thug] to specifically return to this moment to change history?
After much consideration, Lin Qiye could only think of this possibility.
But now he had no control over the law of time and couldn’t release these two from their frozen state. He would probably have to wait for Wang Mian to act.
Just as Lin Qiye was about to move the two to a safe place, a gray figure descended from the sky. Seeing this person, Lin Qiye spoke in surprise:
“Wang Mian? Aren’t you supposed to be at the front line?”
“With the Daxia gods and two Tianzuns taking action, those Black Goat offspring have basically been contained. Whether I’m there or not doesn’t make much difference,” Wang Mian shook his head. “I just returned from time travel. Let me release these two children first.”
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow, “You traveled through time?”
“Yes, in the previous timeline, we came back a bit late, causing many tragedies.” Wang Mian pointed at Lu Baoyou who had his knife against Fang Mo. “In that timeline, this child eventually ambushed Lucifer with his knife, but unfortunately failed and was immediately killed by an enraged Lucifer.
The other child transformed into a white tiger, but before he could act, he was also cut to pieces. Later, Lucifer extracted the white tiger’s soul from his body and used special methods to corrupt it, turning it into His mount, which was very troublesome.”
Listening to Wang Mian’s account, Lin Qiye stared at the two, stunned.
“This child, though violent in temperament, isn’t bad at heart. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have risked his life to ambush the god he serves for the sake of his companion,” Wang Mian couldn’t help but sigh. “Later, after thinking about it, I went back in time by about ten minutes, to before this child attempted to ambush Lucifer, and paused time.
This way, not only could I save the white tiger’s life, but also prevent Lucifer from discovering this child’s betrayal and killing him through the soul contract.”
“I see…” Lin Qiye nodded in sudden understanding. “Thank you!”
“No need for thanks… cough cough… these aren’t just your students, they’re also our younger generation.” A smile appeared on Wang Mian’s aged face.
Wang Mian waved his hand, and as the law of time rippled, the two figures frozen in time continued their actions.
A flash of ruthlessness appeared in Lu Baoyou’s eyes. Just as the straight knife was about to touch Fang Mo’s neck, he suddenly changed direction, throwing it like lightning toward where Lucifer had been in the sky, only to find nothing there.
Looking at the empty sky, Lu Baoyou froze in place.
Equally stunned was Fang Mo in front of him. Although deep down he hadn’t believed Lu Baoyou would actually harm him, when Lu Baoyou changed the direction of his knife, a warmth rose in his heart.
“Master Qiye?!” Having escaped danger, Fang Mo caught sight of Lin Qiye nearby, his eyes showing delight.
Lu Baoyou also came to his senses. Seeing both Wang Mian and Lin Qiye, his expression changed several times, his thoughts unknown.
“Don’t look at me, thank Elder Wang Mian first. If it weren’t for him using his lifespan to save you, you’d both be corpses by now,” Lin Qiye said, pointing at Wang Mian.
“Thank you, Elder Wang Mian,” Fang Mo paused, then sincerely expressed his gratitude.
“Thanks…”
Although reluctant, Lu Baoyou still forced himself to say a word.
Wang Mian smiled without speaking.
“Master Qiye, shouldn’t we head to the battlefield now?” Fang Mo asked.
“You?” Lin Qiye shook his head. “We’ve all returned, why would we need rookies like you on the battlefield?”
“…” Fang Mo couldn’t help but speak up, “Not letting us onto the battlefield again? This is the second time. We can’t just have made two trips for nothing…”
“How many Cthulhu monsters could all of you combined kill?” Lin Qiye smiled. “Don’t worry, the Daxia gods can resolve this crisis… barring any accidents, this should be Daxia’s last battle for the near future.”
Lu Baoyou’s mouth twitched slightly, his eyes clearly showing disappointment.
After dealing with these young Night Watchers who hadn’t yet reached the battlefield, Lin Qiye quickly rushed to the front line with Wang Mian. By now, under the full cleanup operation of the Heavenly Court, the Black Goat offspring had been driven out of the war checkpoint and were retreating beyond the misty border.
Boom—!!
The Heavenly Court manifested outside the mist, pressing down like a mountain at the border of Daxia. Rolling spiritual energy continuously dispersed the stench permeating the battlefield. The divine realm’s origin wrapped around Yuanshi Tianzun’s fingertips as his eyes gazed into the distant void.
In that direction, hundreds of kilometers away from the battlefield, a large mass of fleshy clouds rolled incessantly over the sea surface, with countless eyeballs squirming on it, staring in the direction of the Daxia gods, their intentions unknown.
Of course, this distant scene could only be seen by very few people, such as Yuanshi and Daode Tianzun.
“What is He wary of?” Daode Tianzun stood beside Yuanshi Tianzun, asking with furrowed brows.
“They carry the aura of Earth’s Source. He must be wary of the Ancestral God,” Yuanshi Tianzun calmly replied. On the way to Daxia, Lingbao Tianzun had already told him about their experiences, including the existence of the Ancestral God Temple and Earth’s Source.
Possessing the “anchor” of Earth’s Source, the Daxia gods easily fought their way out of the mist, their strength not diminishing in the slightest, meeting the seemingly endless tide of flesh and blood head-on as they charged straight toward the direction of that fleshy cloud.
“It seems this [Black Goat] isn’t that brave after all,” Daode Tianzun laughed.
“[Black Goat] was never a god skilled in combat. If it were [The Key to the Gate] or [Chaos], even with us three Tianzuns here, we might not be able to stop them,” Yuanshi Tianzun’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Perhaps… this is our opportunity.”
“What do you mean?”
“He originally thought all our Daxia gods had been banished, so He dared to appear actively, intending to take advantage and invade Daxia… but He didn’t expect Lingbao and the others to return at full strength, completely disrupting His plans.
Since now only one [Black Goat] has been resurrected in the Cthulhu system, and has exposed its true form, this is our best chance to kill Him. Otherwise, when the other three pillar gods resurrect, He will certainly be a major threat!”
