His palm was burning with a layer of white flames, but it didn't give off any heat. It was just like how the frost hand didn't give off any cold power.
Lin Yun indifferently looked at Dephew, who was being grabbed by the huge hand. There was no trace of emotion on his face, he didn't even seem angry.
At this time, Harren finally killed another Beastman Warlord in the distance. As the last Beastman Warlord fled, Harren didn't bother chasing after it and shouted before flying over, "Hurry up and attack!"
He shouted, "Lord Merlin, please be lenient!"
Hören turned into a black ray of light as he flew across the battlefield, releasing berserk mana and knocking away all the Beastmen trying to block his way. He didn't stop, his face full of worry and worry.
Hören landed a few dozen meters away from Lin Yun. Just as he was about to walk over, Lin Yun expressionlessly looked at him, the mana emitted by his body flickering like flames.
Seeing this scene, Hören's heart suddenly jumped and he stopped. He didn't dare to get too close to Lin Yun at this time.
A worried expression could be seen on Hören 'face.
'Merlin is definitely angry this time. The calmer he seems, the angrier he is. I'm afraid he's really determined to get rid of that idiot Dephew. If I get any closer, he might think that I'm going to attack him.'
'The fighting power Merlin just displayed is already on par with me. If we fight, it's still unknown who will win. Moreover, Merlin hasn't even used that wheel-shaped True Spirit Magic Tool …'
Hören looked into the distance. Anderfa was still controlling the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to keep releasing a flood of spells. The berserk elemental storm was like a four-colored python that kept pressuring the Beastman army. He simply didn't care about what was happening over here.
As for Dephew, he wasn't having a good time. His Runic Shield had been crushed, and his body was in the grasp of that lifelike hand of ice.
The others didn't feel any heat or frost, but Dephew's complexion was incomparably pale. Mana surged from his body, but he couldn't break free from the Frost Hand. The surrounding elemental power had been thoroughly expelled, and he wanted to cast a spell, but he couldn't even release the most basic Mana Shield.
A layer of frost slowly covered Dephew's eyebrows and hair, making him look like a traveler walking on a windy and snowy night. The surface of his body was slowly covered in frost.
Harren shouted anxiously from dozens of meters away with a conflicted look on his face.
"Lord Merlin, have mercy! Don't be impulsive!"
Lin Yun remained expressionless, not moving in the slightest. It was as if he hadn't heard Hören.
Seeing that Lin Yun didn't immediately kill Dephew, Hören relaxed a bit. After some deliberation, he used a negotiating tone to persuade Lin Yun.
"Lord Merlin, I saw what happened this time. Dephew acted excessively. As an ally, he actually did such a thing. You don't need to make a move, I won't let him off. It's not just me, the Black Tower absolutely won't allow anyone to do such a thing and harm our Black Tower's reputation.
"Thus, rest assured, I'll definitely give you a satisfactory explanation, and the Black Tower will also give you a satisfactory explanation."
Hören had a solemn expression. He didn't try to persuade Lin Yun to let Dephew off and instead admitted Dephew's wrongdoings. Although his words implied that he would severely punish Dephew, he wouldn't kill him.
He expressed the same meaning, but his words were completely different. At least it gave people the feeling that he was standing on Lin Yun's side.
Lin Yun didn't react, but he also didn't immediately get rid of Dephew.
Hören faintly sighed in relief. Since he didn't immediately get rid of Dephew, there was still room for discussion.
"Lord Merlin, to tell you the truth, I want to tear that idiot Dephew to shreds, but I can't do that. There are many things you might not be aware of.
"Dephew is targeting you because the person you suppressed before has the same teacher as Dephew, and their teacher is a Heaven Rank powerhouse of the Black Tower's Holy Land." If nothing unexpected happens, the Black Tower's Holy Land will dispatch a Heaven Rank powerhouse to support the Raging Flame Plane's war, and that person is almost certainly Dephew's teacher.
"That idiot Dephew did so many stupid things, no one can protect him. He'll definitely suffer a cruel punishment after returning to the Black Tower's Holy Land. Even if he doesn't die, he'll still die.
"After all, we are allies, and we are at a crucial time like the general attack on the Raging Flame Plane. We are at a complete disadvantage in our bet with the Odin Kingdom. Harming an ally is definitely a huge taboo.
"He is already finished, and even his teacher can't protect him from punishment.
"But Lord Merlin, if you kill him, the result will be completely different. His teacher is a very protective person and might not care that much.
"Throwing your life away for someone who is already finished isn't worth it.
"Our three forces have formed an alliance, and the Cloud Tower is watching from the side. With so many people, it's impossible to hide and disappear. If this matter isn't handled well, I believe that the Cloud Tower definitely won't let go of such an opportunity to attack the Black Tower.
"Thus, Lord Merlin, you don't need to worry. I can guarantee you that Dephew will never appear in front of you again. What awaits him is a cruel punishment."
Hören spoke in an unhurried tone, giving the feeling that he was doing it for his own good, not showing the slightest bit of anxiousness.
When Lin Yun heard this, he couldn't help feeling that Hören's words were reasonable.
Indeed, this wasn't any other time. They were allies, and they were fighting the Raging Flame Beastman army. It was unknown whether they could win or not.
Moreover, in the bet with the Odin Kingdom, the Andalusia Kingdom had always been at a disadvantage.
At such a crucial time, Dephew actually trapped his ally, and the commander of his ally at that. This was too vile. If the Black Tower didn't ruthlessly punish Dephew, it wouldn't just give Lin Yun a satisfactory explanation, but also everyone in the Andalusia Kingdom. The Black Tower's reputation would be thoroughly ruined, and no one would dare to cooperate with the Black Tower in the future.
Especially since it wasn't just the Black Tower, the Cloud Tower was also here. The Cloud Tower and the Black Tower hadn't been very harmonious, and the conflict between the Black Tower and the Cloud Tower's Holy Land was even greater.
If the Black Tower didn't handle this matter well, there would be no need for Lin Yun to say anything. The Cloud Tower definitely wouldn't let go of this weakness that the Black Tower had personally handed over to them.
Even if it was a special period and they could cooperate temporarily, this weakness would be used to deal a fatal blow to the Black Tower at the right time.
If they won, this weakness would make the Black Tower lose a large part of their benefits. If they lost, most of the blame would be placed on the Black Tower. When the time came, everyone would be furious, and the Black Tower would naturally make all the forces of the Andalusia Kingdom retreat to the opposite side.
As an opponent on par with the Black Tower, the Cloud Tower could definitely do this.
For the sake of a guy that the Black Tower would inevitably ruthlessly punish, putting himself in extreme danger while facing a Heaven Rank powerhouse, no smart person would do such a thing.
Lin Yun also felt that Hören's words made sense.
And just as Lin Yun frowned and pondered, and Hören's heart finally calmed down, the frozen Dephew sneered at Lin Yun and shouted, "Mafa Merlin, my teacher should have already arrived in the Raging Flame Plane.
I advise you to let go of me and I'll let bygones be bygones. I'll act as if nothing happened as long as you let go of my junior apprentice brother.
"I can also tell my teacher about you suppressing my teacher's disciple. As long as you let go of my junior apprentice brother, I'll let bygones be bygones.
"Hurry up and let go of me, otherwise, as long as my teacher appears, he'll make you die miserably. Not only you, but your family will also be ruthlessly retaliated."
'Hmpf, that idiot Mafa Merlin dared to kill me. If not for Hören's reminder, I would have forgotten that my teacher should have already arrived in the Raging Flame Plane. That guy dared to make a move against me, my teacher definitely wouldn't let him off.
'Just you wait, I'll let you be arrogant for now, but once my teacher arrives, I'll definitely return the humiliation you gave me a thousandfold! I'll make you die miserably.
'In any case, we're at war with the Raging Flame Beastmen, so no one would dare to say anything if Mafa Merlin died.
'And that Hören actually dared to speak up for an outsider and still wants to punish me. Just you wait, once my teacher arrives, I'll immediately make you a soldier!'
Dephew was shivering from the cold, and his complexion had turned blue. His mana had become cryptic due to the freezing power, and his eyebrows and hair had turned white, but he still had a proud sneer on his face.
He had truly been afraid earlier and had thought that Lin Yun was going to kill him, but after hearing Hören's words, Dephew became fearless and felt that Lin Yun wouldn't dare to kill him.
Hören's expression greatly changed when he heard Dephew's words, and he fiercely glared at Dephew, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Now, Hören wished he could directly choke Dephew to death.
'Idiot!
I managed to calm Merlin down with great difficulty, yet he still dares to provoke Merlin. Does he really think that Merlin, whose courage is even greater than a Dragon's, would know fear?
'Damn, he is courting death, and he doesn't want to die fast enough!'
Hören opened his mouth and promptly tried to persuade Dephew.
"Lord Merlin …"
But while Hören was anxiously stamping his feet, Lin Yun had already shifted his line of sight and indifferently glanced at Dephew.
In the next moment, the pale-white flames on the lifelike ice palm that was holding Dephew suddenly rose sharply.
In an instant, the seemingly gentle white flames wrapped around Dephew, and the terrifying ice aura was like a volcanic eruption. It was as if a gate leading to the depths of the Ice Plane had been opened.
