Chapter 41: Shocking and Ridiculous Maneuvers!

The Nine Secrets created by the Nine Heavenly Respected Ones can only be comprehended and mastered by those with great luck and extraordinary insight.

Understanding one is already astonishing enough.

Yet three secrets emerging in one person, especially a mere youth, is astounding.

If this got out, the old fellows in the forbidden lands wouldn’t sit still.

Summoning the Emperor’s phenomenon, possessing innate double pupils, and the supreme physique—each alone would make someone a prodigy.

But all together in one person, that left Liu Ruyan speechless!

“A variable born in response to calamity…”

Within Liu Ruyan’s eyes, countless stars spun, as if she were deducing something, but all she saw was chaos.

In the shadows.

“Gasp… How is this kid this strong? Lin old ghost, could he be your Lin family’s first ancestor reincarnated?” Ji Daotian sent a secret message to the Lin family ancestor.

“Get lost!”

Lin Yindao’s mouth twitched, snapping back.

Immediately, both looked down with eyes full of shock.

If anyone here felt no surprise and thought it natural, it was Jiang Luoli and Ji Yue’er.

…

“Brother, are you okay?”

Norlan Tianyan worriedly supported Norlan Wudao.

Norlan Wudao gave him a cold glance.

Can’t you see?

I’m almost dying, and you ask if I’m okay?

How am I supposed to answer?

Do I not care about my dignity?

Norlan Tianyan’s body shook and said nothing, instead turning his wary eyes towards the white-clad figure.

At this moment, Lin Ao Tian looked at them with a peculiar expression.

Huh…

According to regular plot lines, shouldn’t his younger brother come out mocking and threatening me, then foolishly attacking?

Why is it silent now?

I haven’t finished my act; the reward isn’t in hand!

Silence…

Then, Lin Ao Tian calmly looked at the brothers, softly spoke: “Norlan Tianyan, right? Aren’t you avenging your brother?”

Norlan Tianyan’s expression stiffened.

He promptly shook his iron-tower-like head, sincerely saying: “I don’t want to die…”

I might be brash, but I’m not stupid!

Norlan Wudao’s mouth twitched; his breath was weak as he said: “You’ve gotten smarter, brother…” (TLN HAHAHAHAHA WTF with this villain duo)

“It’s thanks to father’s teachings; he said if we encounter an unbeatable opponent, we should yield instead of fighting in vain, right?”

Norlan Wudao: “…”

Makes sense.

I can’t refute it!

But!

Damn it, why didn’t father teach me that too?!

Lin Ao Tian’s expression turned odd, momentarily seeing these Norlan Empire brothers in a new light.

Hmm…

Could my written villain characters be getting smarter?

I remember depicting Norlan Tianyan as arrogant and prideful with no one in sight!

How did he get smart?

Should I take the initiative?

No…

Even though I just defeated Norlan Wudao, I didn’t earn Liu Ruyan’s trust.

It seems trust doesn’t come through such actions.

I need another method.

Should I kill them?

Killing allies isn’t right; I count on them to oppress Ling Feng later.

Hmm… forget it, give the heir of the king some face!

Alright!

Mainly because I can’t beat him right now!

Suddenly.

Space rippled.

A golden-haired elder from the foreign race appeared on the battlefield, his face dark.

He looked at the severely wounded Norlan Wudao, eyes filled with concern.

If not for the Norlan Empire’s rule against bringing powerful clan members for training among humans, he wouldn’t have been suppressed!

Additionally!

Jiang Luoli… her divine body actually matured, stepping into the “Sever-Me” realm!

This information was vital, but more shocking and fearful was the white-clad youth.

The top prodigy of the Norlan Empire couldn’t withstand a glance from him!

What a monstrous talent!

This kid… must not be allowed to live!

“Let’s go!”

The golden-haired elder said in a deep voice.

Norlan Tianyan heavily nodded, supporting Norlan Wudao.

“Heh, leaving already?”

“Weren’t you saying it was boring? It’s just getting interesting, yet you’re leaving? Did you think Lin Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness Ancient Continent is someone you can just meet?”

“Exactly! If not for this ruthless guy, Prince Lin wouldn’t have stood by and watched the younger generation of Tianxuan Continent be bullied!”

“Don’t you know Prince Lin’s time is valuable!”

The Jiang family disciples sneered, coldly shouting, each word flattering Lin Ao Tian.

Lin Ao Tian, with his long hands behind his back, his eyes as calm as water, said nothing.

These Jiang family disciples are good!

Cooperative!

Hmm… not bad, much better than those shock-prone idiots from my Lin family.

Hearing the surrounding sneers.

The golden-haired elder remained silent, suppressing his anger.

Before coming, they were imposing.

Leaving now, like beaten dogs!

“Jiang Luoli, you should discipline your disciples!”

…

The next second.

A peerless figure in white appeared, staring at them arrogantly.

“Discipline?”

“I think they’re right, isn’t it time you paid the price?”

“Is seeing Lin Lang just your whim?”

This statement caused an uproar!

The top player gasped, “Wow~.”

No one expected the Goddess King to say such words.

The elder’s clenched fists creaked, knuckles white.

As someone from the Norlan Empire, he had never faced such humiliation.

“Old Ming, maybe just give it to them… Father said, ‘leave the green hills, no need to worry about firewood…’” Norlan Tianyan whispered.

The elder coldly glanced at him.

Is this what a prince of our Norlan clan should say?

Is this how the clan leader taught you?

Are you messing with me, old man?

Seeing Norlan Wudao’s affirmative look as well.

Damn!

Is this still the same arrogant prince?

Alright, I’ll endure!

He flicked, and a space ring shot out.

Jiang Luoli took the ring, sensing it.

Inside were many exotic treasures, highly valuable.

“Not enough!”

Her cold voice rang.

Everyone sneered at the golden-haired elder.

Whoosh!

Another space ring flew.

“Not enough!”

Whoosh, whoosh!

Two more followed.

Jiang Luoli’s eyes showed satisfaction; these items were tempting even for someone at the “Sever-Me” realm.

But all were for Lin Ao Tian.

She had no intention of keeping any, planning to divert some Jiang family resources to Lin Ao Tian.

No help!

In this life, Lin Lang was far more important to her than the Jiang family!

But!

She didn’t plan to let this foreign elder go so easily.

Although killing wasn’t an option due to certain restrictions.

Letting him walk away without consequence?

No way!

“Still not enough!”

Hearing Jiang Luoli’s voice, the Jiang family disciples were shaken.

Indeed!

The Goddess King is ruthless!

The foreign golden-haired elder’s face turned green.

“Old Ming, I see you have quite a few space rings left, maybe give them too…” Norlan Tianyan said seriously.

Old Ming: “…”
