Chapter 757: Chapter 240: The Ancestral Lion Revives
“As far as I know, Tai’e has been a Demigod for a long ti, hasn’t he?”
“But those beastn have Heavenly Gods.”
“So what?” Lu Hong looked indifferently at Eferot, “Tai’e has already reached the level of Demigod. If one wanted to kill him, they would definitely deploy the power of a Heavenly God Level. Do you think the two of us, unable to even surpass the late Third Transition, could rescue him?”
“He is your father too. Aren’t you a follower of War God? Please beg the War God to bring him back. I beg you …”
Listening to Eferot’s desperate plea, Lu Hong slowly closed his eyes and said solemnly, “The War God has already left and returned to the Era of the Gods. There is no existence of War God here anymore!”
“What?! Then… the Saint Master of the pig clan just now… ”
“Yes, that was all his own speculation. I also played along for survival, rounding up his guesses.”
Hearing Lu Hong’s words, Eferot collapsed, sitting down despondently.
Lu Hong sighed, put his hand on the other’s shoulder and said, “All we can do now is to try our best to survive. Don’t think about the rest for now. Only when you possess enough power, there will be a possibility of discussing further.”
Eferot, as the designated heir of the Beastman Empire, had his growth been very smooth his whole life; hardly facing any challenging situations. However, upon the ancient beastn’s transition to the modern era, his status plumted considerably, having been sent to the remote Northern Three Towns. Before Lionheart God had left, no one had bothered him, but recently, he had suffered imnse humiliation. Watching the humans he protected, his own guards, die tragically at the hands of his enemies, yet being powerless to help—that feeling truly frustrated Eferot and struck a significant blow to his heart.
Luckily, Eferot wasn’t just a decoration sheltered in a greenhouse. Through Lu Hong’s persuasion, Eferot quickly understood the truth of this world—the Heavenly God Realm would beco his ultimate goal. If his father were killed… the day he stepped into the God Realm would also be the ti for these ancient beastn to pay their debts!
“Let’s go, I’ll go to the Star Sea with you.”
“Okay.” As he spoke, Lu Hong further inquired, “Do you know where there might be interstellar warships or sothing of that sort? Just the two of us cannot cross the deadly zone separating the Star Sea and the Star Realm.”
“There should be so in the Seven Floating Worlds. When those ancient beastn defeated the Eagle Alliance, they once asked us about the use of those large iron pieces. They are mostly stored in the Seven Floating Worlds. We can go there and procure one.”
Having said that, the two set off, leaving the Northern Border and heading toward the main dinsion of the previously conquered Eagle Alliance. With the waist card given by Zhu Wujie, no beastman dared block their way throughout the journey, and Lu Hong understood why the card needed no engravings or patterns to prove its authenticity—the stench it emitted explained everything.
Any normal beastman, upon slling the scent from the waist card, would wave their hands and turn away, not wanting to speak any further with Lu Hong.
Thus, the two of them getting an interstellar warship from the Seven Floating Worlds was not a difficult task.
While Eferot and Lu Hong were heading to the Star Realm, Tai’e also encountered assassination by equally powerful beings.
Three Demigod-level ancient beastn surrounded the small courtyard where Tai’e lived.
Confronted with the palpable intent to kill, the despondent Tai’e finally showed a hint of spirit and smirked—what, Lionheart God has only been gone a few years, and you can’t wait to make your move?
The ones who ca to kill Tai’e were none other than individuals from the Yin Snake, Fallen Wolf, and Blood Pattern Tiger clans, powerful beings left in the modern era.
These individuals, compared to the Blood Pattern Tiger clan, also didn’t have it easy. They had to rely on so more powerful Heavenly Gods of beast races to gain the right to survive.
As for why the three gods didn’t take their clan mbers with them when they left, it was partly because the Goddess of Destiny closed the portal too quickly, and partly because being in the Heavenly God Realm ant that the sense of clan wasn’t very strong. Most tis, clan mbers were rely tools for them, just like how Lionheart treated Tai’e—initially promising not to interfere with Tai’e’s position but then relegating him to a corner and ignoring him, even though Tai’e was a mber of their clan who had entered the Demigod stage and had a high chance of becoming a Heavenly God.
Under Tai’e’s watchful gaze, the three beastn approached the small courtyard. The leading Yin Snake clansman bowed to Tai’e, then said, “Lord Tai’e, we have no choice. Our master has issued a death order to end the bloodline of Lionheart in the Star Sea. We have to comply, and we hope you won’t bla us.”
“Each for their master; I understand.” Tai’e stood up, a regal aura of a lion slowly pressing down from the sky.
This pressure had already reached the brink of breaking through the realm. The three exchanged looks, shocked by Tai’e’s talents. Their beastn clan had to fight bloodily just to find a chance to break through, while this Tai’e had been silently cultivating to the peak of Demigod in this dilapidated courtyard all these years? Terrifying!
Although the three also possessed Demigod-level strength, compared to a fully exerting Tai’e, they were still far behind. But this battle was unavoidable.
With gritted teeth, they shouted, “Kill!”
Three people attacked Tai’e simultaneously, from three different directions.
However, Tai’e simply issued a Lionheart’s Roar, which sent the three of them flying.
Then, he transford into a golden teor, slamming heavily into the abdon of a degenerate Wolf Clan mber, causing him nearly to vomit out his dinner from the previous night.
Before he could react, a golden iron fist smashed his head to pieces.
At the sa ti, a Shadow Snake Clan mber spat out purple poison which turned into several chains, twining around Tai’e.
Facing the toxins perating his skin, Tai’e couldn’t be bothered; he grabbed the chains and pulled with great force, flinging the Shadow Snake Clan mber high into the air.
Golden Magic Power surged again, striking at the enemy through the air.
At that mont, the Bloodstripe Tiger Clan mber also moved, his body surging with violent qi and blood, transforming into his true form—a giant tiger, and charged toward Tai’e’s side.
Tai’e rely spun around with a kick, sending him flying into a pile of broken rocks from the shattered wall.
The Shadow Snake Clan mber was also killed by Tai’e’s golden Magic Power in the sa mont, turning into a bloody rain that filled the sky.
Fatal strike. It was an outright instant kill.
Having dealt with these three Demigod warriors, Tai’e glanced indifferently at a nearby lurking will and said, “Lionheart royalty, unrivaled among equals. Didn’t you know that? If you want to kill , you’ll have to do it yourselves.”
These words brought a mont of silence, followed by a deep response from a Heavenly God, “As you wish!”
Just as the voice faded, an earth-colored long spear hurtled toward Tai’e.
The seemingly regular spear throw caused Tai’e’s heart to race as if he sensed the odor of death.
Faced with a strike from a Heavenly God, Tai’e activated Lion King’s Descent, gathered all his Magic Power, and delivered his strongest punch—the Lion King Fist.
As the spear collided with the fist, the fierce impact nearly flattened everything within a hundred-mile radius, and Tai’e vaporized half of his body under the force of the blow.
“Is the gap…really that wide?”
Tai’e knelt on the ground, an expression of bitterness erging: “Eferot, are you…still alive?”
“He should be dead by now, and it’s ti for you to join him,” another spear was said to follow, piercing directly toward him.
Just as the spear was about to penetrate Tai’e’s forehead, a golden arm grabbed it.
With a slight force, the spear completely shattered, disappearing without a trace.
That arm, appearing to belong to a Lionheart, confused Tai’e. Perhaps a Lionheart had broken through to the God Realm?
The Beastman Heavenly God who launched the spear skill also panicked slightly, muttering, “Who are you?!”
“? Heh, you bully a mber of my Lionheart clan and then ask who I am? Just because you are at a higher realm, you bully others?”
As the Gold light dissipated, Tai’e was utterly baffled: “The…the Fourth Ancestor?!”
The Heavenly God known as the Fourth Ancestor gently patted Tai’e’s forehead, “Hey, nicely said—say it again.”
“Fourth Ancestor, how… how are you still alive?”
The Fourth Ancestor chuckled, correcting him, “To be precise, you should ask why I’ve resurrected, not why I’m alive.”
