Chapter 4545: Golden Supre
Xiaopeng obediently stopped imdiately. "Father, what’s wrong?"
Lin Moyu ignored him, raising his head to look at the Bug Stele.
Xiaopeng followed Lin Moyu’s gaze, looking at the vivid, countless bugs on the stele and then he saw the top of the stele.
"There’s soone up there!"
Xiaopeng couldn’t help but cry out in shock!
Seated on the enormous Bug Stele was a person, so small compared to the stele he looked like a speck of dust yet the instant Xiaopeng saw him, a chill ran up his spine.
He couldn’t look away; all his attention was drawn in. Even the existence of the stele itself seed to vanish in comparison.
He beca the absolute center of this stretch of space without rival.
"A Supre!"
Xiaopeng blurted out. The only thing that could give him such a feeling now was a Supre.
If it were just an ordinary top tier perfected expert, Xiaopeng might not win, but wouldn’t be scared.
Only a Supre could make him feel terror.
Lin Moyu said calmly, "The Southern Gold Supre."
He didn’t get Xiaopeng’s reaction; his own soul was so powerful that Supres had beco almost ordinary to him.
Besides, he’d dealt with Supres before, so he hardly felt anything now.
The Gold Supre of the Southern Pole wore a golden robe, styled just like any other Supre, rely differing in color.
Gold Supre turned to look, eting Lin Moyu’s eyes.
In that mont, Gold Supre’s figure appeared to swell in Lin Moyu’s perception. An invisible power wrapped around Lin Moyu.
He didn’t resist; he could sense that this force was no threat his soul gave no warning.
Trusting his soul, Lin Moyu accepted it.
The void seed to twist for an instant, vision blurred and he was suddenly standing right before the Supre.
Across vast distances, an instant had brought him to the top of the Bug Stele.
Lin Moyu put Xiaopeng away and respectfully greeted the Supre. "Lin Moyu of the Central Domain human race greets Gold Supre."
He spoke without humility yet not arrogantly showing respect, but also equality.
"No need for formalities. Please, sit." Gold Supre didn’t care for etiquette, simply gesturing for Lin Moyu to sit.
There was no tea table before him, only the emptiness of the stele’s surface, as if he and the Bug Stele were inseparably entwined.
Lin Moyu had the feeling that this Supre had been sitting there for countless years.
Rembering the conversation between Little Tree and Chaos Child, Lin Moyu suddenly wondered: could this Gold Supre actually be the legendary Golden Sun Sovereign from the old tis?
But if he really was, how had he managed to escape the "Dao’s" pursuit, and even reach the rank of Supre?
Carrying these doubts, Lin Moyu sat and asked tactfully, "Were you waiting for ?"
He couldn’t ask directly; he had to probe from the side, seeking clues from the Supre’s words and expressions.
Gold Supre replied, "I was waiting for the inheritor of the Calamity Will. Is that you?"
Lin Moyu answered, "It seems so. Are you friend or foe to him?"
Gold Supre remained expressionless, impossible to read. "Friend," he said.
Lin Moyu probed further. "Are you planning to kill ?"
Gold Supre responded, "His setup is complete. Killing you would change nothing; another would co. Besides, I need you for sothing. If you do it, I will be neither friend nor foe to him. Fail, and I’ll kill you."
Lin Moyu fell silent, weighing the truth of Gold Supre’s words.
His tone contained no emotion utterly unrevealing but when Lin Moyu listened very carefully, he picked out genuine killing intent. Gold Supre was not joking.
Gold Supre went on: "Don’t think I’m bluffing or that I have any scruple. I know you have Supres behind you more than one, most likely. But what of it? I’m sitting right here. Would they dare to step in?"
"If not for a promise from the Calamity brat back then, he could never have set up his formation here in the first place."
Finally, a thread of feeling showed in Gold Supre’s voice, though slight; Lin Moyu caught it at once.
This was telling. Gold Supre harbored no real respect for the Calamity Supre even if Calamity was a top tier Supre, Gold Supre’s attitude was dismissive.
Most noteworthy: Gold Supre called Calamity Supre "Calamity brat." Supres normally addressed each other as equals even if one had been a Supre earlier, honorifics were standard.
Gold Supre’s casual term showed he was the senior: not just longer lived, but from an older epoch.
It was like how Little Tree and Chaos Child treated Xiaopeng cordial, but always as a junior, until Xiaopeng awakened the Golden Winged Peng bloodline and beca their peer by origin, not strength.
Gold Supre was like that too. A casual remark gave much away.
After a mont, Lin Moyu asked tentatively, "Sovereign?"
Gold Supre’s aura surged, and the void filled with ear piercing insect cries.
Lin Moyu’s soul warned him: this person was dangerous.
So Gold Supre was indeed the Golden Sun Sovereign as Lin Moyu now knew for certain.
Suppressing his shock, Lin Moyu maintained a calm tone. "There’s no need for such a reaction. Are you... afraid?"
Gold Supre’s expression flickered, his eyes crawling with shifting patterns, as if countless insects sward within.
He was a Spirit Bug Person half human, half insect, master of the Bug Stele and the entire bug tribe, the true lord of the Southern Pole.
If angered, he could plunge the whole South into disaster the bug army could flood the Three Domains and Four Extres in blood.
Lin Moyu t his gaze unflinchingly, wholly unafraid.
A few words could never unnerve a Supre; that would an his Dao heart was worthless.
If Gold Supre was acting this way, it could only an he was putting on a show trying to seem easy to deal with.
Well, Lin Moyu would play along.
The colder he stayed, the harder it would be for Gold Supre to read him and the more Lin Moyu could learn.
After a while, Gold Supre composed himself. "How did you know?"
Lin Moyu answered, "Just a guess. I’d heard stories about you living until now and becoming a Supre is remarkable indeed."
Gold Supre replied, "You don’t understand the price I paid."
Lin Moyu said, "Though the price was great, what you gained was even greater. So, what do you want from ? And I’d like to know what promise did Calamity Supre make you in the past?"
Gold Supre said, "You’re truly the inheritor of Calamity brat’s Will. He’s strong, but not worthy of my admiration. I’ve seen stronger ones.
What I really respect is his sches, his resolve, his command of the ga. He told there would be a Will inheritor sent here one day, and that person would be "
