Beastmaster of the Ages

reached Unity.
In the Abyssal Battlefield, you relied on tricks to offend me.
Tomorrow, I will give you a sound beating!”

Offended? In truth, she was just displeased that Li Tianming had defeated her.
Now, however, she was in Unity and had an eight-star beast, the Blizzard Spirit Dragon.
She wouldn’t be satisfied if she didn’t take the opportunity to crush Li Tianming.

“Then it’ll make things meaningless.
I want him to come at me at full strength, so he knows how futile all this is.” Lin Xiaoting sneered.

“Relax, I’ll leave him in one piece for you.
I just want to show Li Tianming who is stronger!” Yueling Ji had trained hard for one whole month just to wipe clean that humiliation.
Else, how could she go to Heaven’s Elysium if she couldn’t even beat someone from the countryside?

“That’ll be fine.” Lin Xiaoting smiled.
All he wanted was for Yueling Ji to not snatch away the prey he wanted to savour slowly.

“There’s no suspense tomorrow.
Li Tianming with his combat prowess of ninth level Spiritsource is just too far from Yueling Ji.”

“Now, husband and wife are fighting over the prey.
Li Tianming will have a miserable end; he’s like a little rabbit in front of them.”

“Husband and wife? Pfffttt…” When they thought of the Gelding Blight, people burst out into laughter again.

“Alright, alright, disperse.
The battle continues tomorrow!” Song Yixue shouted, bringing an official end to the day.

……

After half a month of clear skies, a huge downpour began.
It wasn’t just any heavy rain, but a full-on torrential storm that came with gales and lightning.

The various families of Ignispolis all shut their doors.
Few left the safety of their houses tonight.

This storm was reminiscent of three years ago.

At Lightning Manor.

Lightning Manor was located in a more low-lying area, and water quickly accumulated on the ground.
Lin Xiaoting was kneeling in the downpour, soaked to the bones.
He had been in this position for four hours.

“Vice-inspectors, Lin Xiaoting requests for a meeting.” This was his third time imploring them.
However, no activity could be heard.
By now, his eyes had turned red.

Suddenly, the door opened, causing Lin Xiaoting’s face to light up.

However, the people who came out were instead Yuling Hong, Yueling Xiao and Yueling Ji.

“Don’t waste your time.
Get lost, the inspectors don’t want to see you.
How tactless.” Yueling Ji rolled her eyes, before walking around him to leave.

“Why?” Lin Xiaoting was stupefied.

“You want to ask the inspectors to help you kill Mu Yang to seek justice for Lightning Manor, no?” Yueling Xiao stopped.

“Yes.” Lightning Manor, as of now, only had him who could request to meet the inspectors.

“Don’t indulge in wild fantasies.
Mu Yang isn’t easy to deal with.
It was your Lin Clan that offended him.
They won’t take the risk for you all,” Yuling Xiao said.

“We offended him? Lightning Manor was fighting for your sake!” Lin Xiaoting stared dumbfoundedly at his father-in-law.

“So? Alright, the job’s done, you got the one point for us, thank you very much.
You all can withdraw already.
Just make sure you all act more honest in the future.” Yueling Ji cut in.

Lin Xiaoting paled.

“Come on, you can’t be that naive, can you? Lin Xiaoting, you’re going to Heaven’s Elysium.
You need to mature more.
Be realistic; Lightning Manor is worthless now.” Yueling Ji smiled.

Lin Xiaoting was utterly flummoxed, because these words seemed very familiar to him.
Was this the same girl that had had so many daydreams of him in the past? “You say that, but have you forgotten we’re married…”

“Huh? What joke is that? Lin Xiaoting, who got married to you? In the future, watch your words, lest you lose your life.
I, Yueling Ji, could never have married some genderless thing.
Don’t ruin my reputation.
You have to see reality clearly!” She looked down at him from above.
She had already been thinking of this for quite a while, so it was good to clarify things now.

“Xiaoting, don’t worry.
Our Yueling Clan still maintains its friendship with you all.
Still, let’s forget all about that marriage, okay?” Yueling Xiao consoled as he patted him on the shoulder.

“I understand.” Lin Xiaoting was currently filled with so much humiliation and frustration that it felt like his heart was tearing apart.

And yet, why do their words sound so damn familiar?

“Alright, Lin Xiaoting.
Now that we’ve clarified our relationship, don’t go and try to die in your deathmatch with Li Tianming.
If you want to do so, give me a heads up so I can kill him first.” Yueling Ji smiled.

It didn’t matter that she did so now.
After all, the battle was a deathmatch where losing meant death.
No matter how much grief Lin Xiaoting had, he wouldn’t want to die.
Hence, even if he didn’t want to fight for the Yueling Clan’s sake, he still had to work hard for their sake.

“Lin Xiaoting, you’re a mature person.
You won’t be childish, right? You know when to admit defeat, right?” Yueling Ji used her finger to tap Lin Xiaoting on the head.
Hard.
A clear sound rang out as Lin Xiaoting’s head was forced to the ground.
However, he didn’t move, keeping it lowered as he sniffled.

A streak of lightning lit up the world as brightly as if it were daytime.
For a moment, that girl tapping Lin Xiaoting’s head seemed to be wearing white.
