Chapter 1914 - 1918: Killing Intent Begins to Boil
When the Lord of Heaven was chatting with Number Two.
A voice came from outside.
"Report! Lord of Heaven, the coordinates have been deduced!"
The Lord of Heaven raised his brows instantly, appearing somewhat excited.
However, when he saw the person who entered, his face involuntarily sank.
"Number Five, how come it’s you?"
The Lord of Heaven was a bit puzzled; no matter how short they were on people, it wouldn’t come to having Number Five deliver the message!
"I happened to have a report to make, so I brought the message along!"
Number Five replied with a bowed head.
"Then hurry up and speak."
Number Two, not thinking much, took two steps forward, appearing uncommonly excited.
But the Lord of Heaven didn’t speak, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"Alright, I’ll speak." Number Five nodded.
Yet at this moment.
"Number Two, run!"
The Lord of Heaven’s face suddenly changed dramatically, his entire person breaking a rift in space, arriving beside Number Two in the blink of an eye. With a fierce flick of his sleeve, a forceful gust hurled toward Number Five.
Number Two was terrified by this scene.
What was going on?!
Did the Lord of Heaven attack Number Five?!
And with deadly force?!
What exactly happened?!
However.
In the bewildered gaze of Number Two, she saw Number Five suddenly lift his head, eyes gleaming with a strange red light.
Then!
The next moment!
"Boom!"
In the unbelieving gaze of Number Two, Number Five, whom she had known for thousands of years, actually self-destructed right in front of her!
Yet, at this moment, she was more in a state of stupor than fear!
She was just puzzled as to why Number Five suddenly self-destructed and did not worry about the power of the explosion!
After all, this was the Spirit Realm, and with the Lord of Heaven’s protection, she didn’t believe Number Five’s explosion could harm her!
However!
"Whoosh!"
The most eerie scene in the Spirit Realm appeared!
Accompanying Number Five’s explosion, countless beams of red light flew out from his body, carrying an incomparably tragic aura toward all directions.
Thus, in Number Two’s stunned gaze, she saw that the buildings in the Spirit Realm, which should have been indestructible, were corroded at the first touch of the red light, turning into a gas mixed with bizarre red and green colors!
This scene completely crashed Number Two’s mind!
And at this moment, a large red light bypassed the Lord of Heaven, rushing towards her body.
The Lord of Heaven’s face also changed drastically, reaching out to grab that red light!
But!
This was the Spirit Realm!
Even the Lord of Heaven, who prided himself as the master, had to follow the rules here!
Thus!
The Lord of Heaven missed the red light by a hair’s breadth, watching helplessly as it entered Number Two’s body.
Number Two was dumbfounded, looking down at her belly, which had turned into a giant cavity, her expression exceptionally bizarre!
Fear, despair, disbelief, stupor, doubt, and so on!
Then, she dumbly looked up at the Lord of Heaven and asked dully, "Your Majesty, will I die?!"
The question, it was a genuine question!
Because no one had ever managed to kill them in the Spirit Realm before.
But she also saw the eerie scene of that red light corroding everything!
Thus, she was at a loss, and could only ask the Lord of Heaven, whom she believed to be all-powerful!
Will she die?
And before the Lord of Heaven could answer her, she felt her consciousness begin to fade, the darkness in her eyes growing larger.
"So, it turns out, you can die!"
Number Two said foolishly, with a smile uglier than crying on her face: "You can die!"
"No!"
The always steady and aloof Lord of Heaven suddenly let out the most piercing wail: "Number Two! Number Two! Number Two! No! You won’t die! You won’t!"
The piercing wail was like a lamenting wolf’s howl, shaking the entire Spirit Realm with the Lord of Heaven at its center.
Everyone who heard the Lord of Heaven’s wail, whether Mahayana cultivator or guard resembling an intelligent robot, felt a soul-wrenching sadness!
No one knew what had happened!
And after a long time.
The sound came from within the Lord of Heaven’s palace once more: "Lin Feng! Lin Feng! Lin Feng! I want you dead! I want you dead!"
To the Lord of Heaven, Number Two was special!
This is why he always had the somewhat foolish Number Two by his side, not Number One who came earlier, nor Numbers Three or Four who came later!
And at this moment, the special Number Two had been assassinated by Lin Feng!
This made his once heart of calm waters, after feeling angry twice before, feel sadness!
He wanted to tear Lin Feng apart completely!
However!
At this moment!
"Boom!"
The entire Spirit Realm suddenly erupted with an incomparably loud noise, akin to the firmament collapsing and earth shattering, causing everyone who heard the sound to crouch in pain!
Accompanied by the huge noise was an extremely violent tremor!
If this tremor occurred on the ground, everyone would immediately say it was an earthquake!
However, this was the Spirit Realm!
How could such a thing happen?!
Everyone looked around in bewilderment, not knowing what to do, as if trying to find the source of the vibration!
But, unlike others’ bewilderment, the Lord of Heaven’s expression changed drastically!
He had a very bad suspicion in his heart!
This bad suspicion even suppressed his sadness for Number Two!
Then!
A figure hurriedly flew in, pale, reporting, "Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! A layer of the Spirit Realm has detached from our control! And it has been sealed off; we cannot control it!"
"Boom!"
It was as if a thunder struck directly in the Lord of Heaven’s mind!
A layer of the Spirit Realm detached?!
How is that possible?!
How is that possible?!
After disbelief came overwhelming fury!
This fury was even greater than when Number Two was assassinated by Lin Feng!
If Number Two was a loved one cultivated by the Lord of Heaven over a long time, then the control of the Spirit Realm was his ultimate goal over this long span of time!
The loss of these two had profoundly different impacts on him!
The Lord of Heaven’s breathing began to quicken, his head started to feel dizzy, feeling as if he might faint again!
Who was it?!
Who was it?!
Was it Lin Feng, or Lu Xiaobu?!
Finding the Spirit Realm Layer and stealthily seizing it?!
Good! Good! Good! Good means! Good means!
The Lord of Heaven’s heart ached, his entire being plunged into a bizarre, indescribable state!
This was a state where his worldview, outlook on life, and values were utterly destroyed from start to finish!
He even fell into self-doubt!
After all these years of hard work, laying out across the heavens, what was it all for?!
Now, was his hard work going to be taken away like this?!
Murderous intent started to boil!
