The news that Lin Shen repelled the Thunder Kunpeng with a single finger spread quickly within the academy.
However, the majority of people did not believe this claim, thinking it was rely a rumor.
"Rumors are stopped by the wise," a saying that the students of the Supre Academy abide by thoroughly.
Apart from a very few individuals, most thought soone had exaggerated, and Lin Shen wasn't that formidable.
Even the event where Lin Shen defeated Di Esi was spoken of as having another side to the story.
Of course, there was indeed more to it.
Lin Shen didn't care about these things. After Lou Ran personally escorted them back to their hotel and was about to leave, Lin Shen approached Lou Ran.
"Teacher Lou Ran, can I talk to you for a mont?" Lin Shen called out to Lou Ran.
"What is it?" Lou Ran was sowhat surprised and wondered why Lin Shen would seek her out.
Lin Shen hesitated for a mont before asking, "Do you know a Taiger Person nad Demon Bone?"
"You an Demon Master Demon Bone?" Lou Ran's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she stared at Lin Shen.
"It seems you know him. Are you friends or foes with him?" Lin Shen didn't answer her and continued to ask.
"What exactly do you want to know?" Lou Ran stared at Lin Shen.
Seeing that Lou Ran wasn't willing to answer and to prevent any misunderstanding, Lin Shen said, "I encountered him before, and he asked to deliver a ssage to the Supre Clan's Lou Ran. I guess that would be you, right?"
"What ssage?" Lou Ran frowned and asked.
"He only said one thing, to ask you, does the original pact still hold?" Lin Shen relayed the original words to Lou Ran and then added, "He said no matter what your answer is, to let him know. Of course, I made no promises, so it's also fine if you choose not to respond."
"If you see Demon Master Demon Bone again, tell him that the original pact no longer holds," Lou Ran replied, surprising Lin Shen.
Lin Shen nodded and turned to leave.
"Aren't you curious about my relationship with Demon Bone?" Lou Ran's voice ca from behind. Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire
"I'm just passing a ssage. Whatever relationship you two have, I'm not interested," Lin Shen shook his head.
"Demon Bone has earned the title of Demon Master because he has the ability to turn decay into a miraculous state, such that any student he teaches, no matter how diocre their talent, can transform from a diocrity into a genius. It's almost like magic, which is why he has the title of Demon Master."
Hearing Lou Ran speak, Lin Shen stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at her.
Lou Ran continued, "I too have studied under Demon Bone for a while. At that ti, my talent was not good, one might even say it was poor, and I could only pin my sole hope on Demon Bone, to beseech him as my teacher and accept his guidance."
"Others only know that Demon Master Demon Bone can turn a diocrity into a genius, but they don't know that learning from him also cos with a price. Every student who studies with Demon Master Demon Bone must do three tasks for him, whatever he asks, even if it's sothing monuntal, even if it ans killing one's own parents, it must be done."
"Did no one refuse him when he made such impolite demands?" Lin Shen furrowed his brow and asked.
"It's difficult to refuse because he left weaknesses in every student. Whether teaching them moves or modifying their bodies, he always has a trick up his sleeve. No matter how strong the student becos, he can easily destroy them." Lou Ran continued, "The Evolution Skill I practice also originates from Demon Bone, so it definitely has flaws. The agreent he ntioned is about completing three tasks for him when becoming his disciple. I've already helped him twice, and him sending you to ans he wants this last favor."
"What does he want you to do for him?" Lin Shen pondered before asking.
"I don't know, but it can't be anything good," Lou Ran said coldly. "Demon Bone is extrely cunning and has committed many evil acts. He even betrayed his own Taiger brethren, causing the deaths of countless Taiger People. What good can co from it? I'm not going to help him with anything anymore. Tell him that the next ti you see him."
"Understood," Lin Shen nodded, but couldn't help asking curiously, "You ntioned that Demon Bone would even betray his own kind and has caused the deaths of many Taiger People. What happened exactly?"
"Just search for the Demonic Dyed Star incident, and you'll know," Lou Ran did not answer Lin Shen but left him with these words before walking away.
Following Lou Ran's instructions, Lin Shen searched for information on the Demonic Dyed Star incident and found plenty of it. He skimd through the details, and it was truly shocking.
Demon Bone had gained control of a planet inhabited by a humanoid lifeform known as the Demonic Dyed.
For many years, Demon Bone lived on Demonic Dyed Star, guiding and educating its inhabitants, helping them transition from primitive society and integrate into the interstellar community.
However, in the end, Demon Bone annihilated the entire Demonic Dyed race, not sparing even a single infant.
The whole Demonic Dyed Star was slaughtered to the extent that rivers ran with blood. Not a single one of the billions of Demonic Dyed survived, and those who investigated later were so horrified by the grueso scene that they were psychologically traumatized upon their return.
It's not unusual for Immortal beings to destroy planets; there have been incidents where Immortals accidentally destroyed life-bearing planets before. But blowing up a planet and personally killing billions of its inhabitants are entirely different concepts. Soone like that, Lou Ran would rather be disloyal and faithless than help again, and that was actually quite normal.
Lin Shen wouldn't have helped him either. No one wants to see a genocide occur, so Lin Shen could understand Lou Ran's position.
He just hadn't expected the Demon Master, Demon Bone, to be such a terrifying individual—not only an Immortal, but also a cruel murderer who had wiped out a race of billions.
Until now, Lin Shen had believed that the Demon Master, Demon Bone, was at most a Nirvana Being.
After returning to the hotel, Lin Shen t with Tian Yunxiang to discuss going back to Sky Pinnacle Star.
He had assud Tian Yunxiang would not readily agree to return, but, surprisingly, she did not argue this ti and directly consented to go back to Sky Pinnacle Star, which seed very unusual.
Worried that she had agreed only superficially and might sneak away again, Lin Shen had the four Ye Xing won take turns watching her.
However, by the ti Lin Shen and the others boarded the spacecraft the next day, Tian Yunxiang had caused no trouble at all and obediently followed him onto the craft.
Lin Shen was greatly surprised, confused as to why Tian Yunxiang suddenly beca so easy to talk to.
"Never mind, whatever the reason, this is good news." Lin Shen was in high spirits as everyone returned smoothly to Sky Pinnacle Star. Tian Yunxiang cooperated unexpectedly well throughout the journey, not even bickering with Lin Shen, which he found sowhat unbelievable.
"Lin Shen, your Finger Skill is very strong; I'd like to learn it too. Teach when we get a chance." Before heading back to the Imperial Palace on Sky Pinnacle Star, Tian Yunxiang suddenly turned around and spoke soft words to Lin Shen then departed.
"Must have taken the wrong dicine," Lin Shen thought, not interested in dealing with this Prince.
