When a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator unleashed overwhelming aura in a Colossus, the ultimate weapon in the sea of stars, as if he were determined to die together with his opponent crazily, almost nothing could stop him.
Also, when the crazed Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator suddenly turned around and ran away in a sleazy manner after he was determined to die together with his opponent, then … there would be even less forces that could stop him.
It was exactly the case for Li Yao's Tartarean Skeleton.
A second ago, the flames of spiritual energy were raging, bursting out all kinds of dazzling sound and visual effects, as if he were going to die together with Li Lingfeng.
The next second, he turned into a stealthy streak of black brilliance and crawled into the broken hole of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky", fleeing at a high speed!
From perishing together to running away, the switch between bravery and wretchedness was smooth, natural, and impeccable!
Even Li Lingfeng was dumbfounded by the mysterious Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator's action.
He had seen the demeanor of countless Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators in his life. Some were fearless, some were as crazy as devils, some were as magnificent as mountains, some were as vast as oceans, and some were as unstoppable as the scorching sun.
But he had never seen such a sleazy Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator before!
Now that the enemy was running away, Li Lingfeng could only chase after him closely.
But he immediately realized that he was in an extremely awkward predicament, and he could not have been more cautious.
It must be noted that although the mutated prisoner and Li Yao were sabotaging and slaughtering crazily inside "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" just now, it was an enormous metropolis in space that was as complicated as a maze after all. It was impossible for it to be completely destroyed in only half an hour.
At this moment, the main structure of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" was still intact. Although it was slowly falling into the atmosphere, the buffer rune arrays that enshrouded the bloody Flower of the Other Shore had begun to function and flash, spurting out gentle flames of light. Together with the optimal entry and landing trajectory set by the mainframe crystal processor, the odds of a safe landing were very high. At least more than half of the structure was intact.
Right now, a lot of Immortal Cultivators who were far away from the central area were still alive inside the space fortress. Many of them were the descendants of the major families of the Imperium and the leadership of the military, whom Li Lingfeng could not afford to piss off.
They became Li Yao's best shields.
What could Li Lingfeng do?
Fighting Li Yao inside "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky", turning the entire space fortress upside down with the two Colossi, and killing all the Immortal Cultivators who were suspected to be alive by the way?
If that was the case, Li Lingfeng could not bear the overwhelming fury of the families of the Imperium and the fleets of the military at all!
Everybody knew that he was the biggest investor behind the Heavenly Eye Group. Many Immortal Cultivators had come to the Land of Sins for trials, vacations, and business deals only because of him. This place was the core of his social circle and his most important nest outside of the Li family. How could he destroy it in person?
Besides, there were countless advanced facilities and experiment results inside the space fortress, which were all the precious products that he had made after decades of hard work. They were the greatest assets for him to compete for the position of "Kurfürst". How could he possibly destroy the decades of hard work that he had devoted to in order to win the position of "Kurfürst"?
Li Lingfeng's heart was bleeding. No, it was spurting blood.
To this moment, he still could not figure out where Li Yao, the god of slaughter, came from.
Li Yao was obviously not the queen's man. But if he was a Cultivator, how could he boast the strength of the Divinity Transformation Stage and use such advanced Colossi?
Li Lingfeng was truly infuriated with nowhere to vent his fury. His lungs were almost exploding.
Li Lingfeng's awkwardness was the Immortal Cultivators' fleet's awkwardness.
At this moment, a lot of starships of the Immortal Cultivators had already broken free from the chaos and approached "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky". They had not suffered too much damage and were still maintaining their daunting firepower.
However, even if they were fully firing, so what?
A Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator in a Colossus was not so easy to lock onto. It was possible that before they hit Li Yao, "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" would be riddled with holes and all the hostages of the Immortal Cultivators inside would be blown up!
Therefore, they could only watch "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" sinking deeper and deeper into the atmosphere and crashing to the ground irretrievably in a dilemma.
Li Yao, on the other hand, seemed to have seen through their awkwardness. While scampering inside "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky", he sabotaged everything in his way. The "Tartarean Skeleton" was too heavily damaged to have another head-on clash with the "Tempest God", but it was still more than easy for him to go on a rampage inside the space fortress, stomp on a few bug-like Immortal Cultivators, and blow up some of the precise and fragile magical equipment.
Chasing Li Yao, Li Lingfeng could not help but watch the work of his life that was burning furiously and exploding consecutively. The burnt and twisted bodies of countless Immortal Cultivators brushed past his Colossus, only to be blown into smithereens after the collision. He felt like crying but had no tears. He even had the thought of hugging Li Yao and dying together with him.
"Stop right there! Don't run!"
Li Lingfeng's telepathic thoughts were mixed with screams. "Who are you exactly?"
Hiu!
Driving the Tartarean Skeleton to shrink into a cluster, Li Yao happened to dodge the three waves of light balls that Li Lingfeng shot at him. With the blast caused by the explosion of the light balls, he moved horizontally and blew open a secret chamber nearby where a hundred Immortal Cultivators were hiding, allowing them to have a taste of the blast that Li Lingfeng blew out.
Those Immortal Cultivators were not at a high level. Most of them were not battle-type either. It was not hard to imagine the outcome of the competition between the two Colossi.
Without looking back, Li Yao chuckled nonstop. "We are both in the Divinity Transformation Stage. Please, can you say something more profound instead of 'stop right there! Don't run! Who are you?'? How can I possibly stop? How can I possibly tell you who I am? "
"You —"
Watching the hundred Immortal Cultivators being burnt into roasted ducks by the flames of spiritual energy triggered by the two Colossi, Li Lingfeng was so angry that he almost vomited blood again. "I will not let go of you. I will make sure that you die without a burial place and never reincarnate!"
"Look, the same nonsense again. Do you have any constructive topics to talk about?"
Li Yao smiled. "In fact, there is no fundamental conflict of interests between you and me. Besides, violence can't solve any problem. Why can't we just bury the hatchet and have a nice chat peacefully?"
Violence can't solve any problem …
Bury the hatchet …
Let's have a good chat calmly …
Looking at the messy, appalling environment around, Li Lingfeng suddenly felt that he should not continue communicating with the sordid, sordid, and mysterious Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator.
Because he would certainly be infuriated to death if the communication continued!
"Activate your computational ability in the Divinity Transformation Stage and think about it!"
Li Yao, however, transmitted noises to Li Lingfeng's soul incessantly. "My purpose is to blow up 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'. Now that my purpose has been achieved, it is impossible to restore the space fortress to what it used to be even if you cut me into pieces and obliterate my soul! Therefore, I am not necessarily the biggest problem for you right now. Right now, the problem that gives you the greatest headache should be Li Linghai, your biological sister and the queen of the Imperium! "
Li Lingfeng's soul shook, and he bellowed, "What do you know exactly?"
"I know that you stole your biological sister's child!"
Li Yao chuckled. "That Li Jialing must be Li Linghai's biological son and your biological nephew, but he is definitely not His Majesty's biological son. I don't need to lie to you at all. It's a fact!"
"It's impossible!"
Instead of responding directly, Li Lingfeng bellowed, "You can't be the queen's subordinate. You couldn't have learned everything from her!"
"Yes. Of course, I didn't learn everything from the queen, because even the queen might not know the whole truth, did she?"
Li Yao said quickly, "However, it doesn't matter where I learned everything exactly. What matters is whether or not it is possible for me to disclose the secret to the public and make you suffer the queen's overwhelming wrath!"
"This … This is a great scandal for the queen. Once it is disclosed, I'm afraid that the queen will be condemned and doomed for eternity!"
Li Lingfeng sneered nonstop. "As the queen of the Imperium of True Human Beings, she should be the mother of the world, but she secretly gave birth to a bastard outside. Once such a thing is exposed, the Li family will be the first to hunt her down. What makes her think that she can deal with me?
"You are too naïve if you want to blackmail me with such a thing!"
"I'll be the naïve one if I believe your bulls * it!"
Li Yao chuckled weirdly. "If you think about it for a moment, you will realize that it has been more than ten years since you stole Li Jialing and refined him in secret. If you really wanted to kill your sister or defend the reputation of the Li family, you would've handed the boy over to the leader and the elders of the Li family and let them decide what to do with him. In order to protect the greatest interests of the Li family, they naturally would've killed Li Jialing mercilessly in the first place!
"After all, the queen is your biological sister and a member of the Li family. Her scandal is the Li family's scandal. Once such a thing is exposed, it will be a heavy blow for the Li family, too. How can the Li family tolerate Li Jialing?
"But Li Jialing has been alive and kicking to this day. He has also received your refinements and been raised into a highly-dangerous super warrior by you. I assume that you did it behind the leader and the elders of the Li family, didn't you?
"Yes, that must be the case. Otherwise, the Li family would've had all kinds of secret arts and techniques that could've been used to refine Li Jialing. Why would you bother to send him to Manjusaka for strengthening?
"Therefore, you have your own plan in the matter, too. You are trying to blackmail your sister with Li Jialing for a certain purpose, which may not be in the best interest of the Li family as a whole.
