427 Accidentally Killing Li Siyu
Shen Fei looked at Lear and said coldly, “Lear, do you have any last words?”
He held a longsword in his hand, and his aura showed that he was ready to execute Lear.
“I’m going to kill you!” Lear roared darkly. He grabbed a sharp blade and rushed at Shen Fei.
Shen Fei raised his hand and smacked Lear to the side. Lear was sent crashing to the ground. He half-knelt as he vomited blood.
“You…!” He glared at Shen Fei.
Lear’s eyes were filled with resentment.
At that moment, the Black Sun floating in the void suddenly shot out a black beam of light. It was like a meteor streaking across the sky, headed toward Lear.
“No…” Lear’s pupils constricted and he despaired. He was struck in the chest by the black light, and blood spurted from his mouth.
“No!” Lear cried, wide-eyed and full of grievances. He wanted to stop the pain, but it was useless.
Li Siyu’s body exploded and died.
Just as they thought that they had dealt with Lear, bursts of laughter suddenly rang out. A wild and derisive cackle came to Shen Fei’s ears.
“Hahaha! Shen Fei, did you think you killed me? No, you killed poor Li Siyu!”
The voice echoed everywhere and Shen Fei looked around to find the speaker. Instead, he found a pile of bones lying beside him. It was Li Siyu’s body, which was destroyed by the Black Sun’s black beam.
Meanwhile, Lear was sitting cross-legged in a nearby clearing. The corners of his mouth curled up into an evil smile as he watched Shen Fei.
“I’m the one who possessed his body while my original body was elsewhere. Unfortunately, you have killed the wrong person.” Lear looked at Shen Fei and laughed contemptuously.
Hearing this, Shen Fei frowned. He actually let the Black Sun kill Li Siyu!
Aloy said to Shen Fei, “Shen Fei, you don’t have to blame yourself…”
“I don’t like killing innocent people,” Shen Fei said lightly.
“Hahaha!!” Lear could not help but laugh when he heard Shen Fei’s words.
Then, his eyes were filled with coldness as he said, “Shen Fei, I never thought that you of all people would have a conscience. But it’s too late anyway, because you have to die.”
Lear’s eyes flashed cruelly. His body immediately erupted with terrifying imperial might. The imperial might was boundless and suppressed everything in sight.
“Imperial might? How is this possible?” Shen Fei stared at Lear in disbelief.
“Nothing is impossible! I’ve long since stepped into the Emperor-tier. It’s just that I’ve been hiding it!” Lear cackled.
“I see. No wonder you still dare to provoke me!” Shen Fei said coldly. He finally understood why Lear had been acting so shamelessly.
“That’s right. You’re indeed very strong, but you’re still not stronger than I am! Before me, you’re still just an ant!” Lear said as he looked at Shen Fei with a haughty attitude.
Shen Fei shook his head. “You just don’t have the qualifications to make me use my full strength to deal with you.”
“Hmph, arrogant.” Lear snorted. His body suddenly shot forward at Shen Fei, and he reared his fist back to punch the younger man.
Shen Fei threw a punch of his own. The two fists collided, and a terrifying boom erupted.
The two of them trembled from the impact and took a few steps back.
“You…!”
Aloy called out to Shen Fei, “Shen Fei, be careful—”
However, she was interrupted by a few sudden explosions.
Lear’s hands had formed a series of mysterious seals as a tactic to launch a direct attack on Shen Fei. The power of each seal triggered a violent explosion in the air.
When Lear was done with the seals, he spread his hands apart and nine phantoms of light appeared; nine light manifestations of imperial might burst forth. They looked like the silhouettes of dragons.
These nine lights were the wills left behind by nine ancient emperors. The nine massive true dragons gathered together. The nine light shadows formed a destructive storm. The storm stretched over the whole area and made everyone feel a sense of suffocating hopelessness. Very quickly, they brought their awesome power crashing down on Shen Fei.
This was the terrifying aspect of an Emperor-tier Beastmaster. Once one stepped into the Emperor tier, their combat strength would increase exponentially.
Facing Lear’s most powerful attack, Shen Fei felt a trace of danger.
“Black Sun, Dark Spirit Intimidation!” he ordered. The Black Sun erupted with dark purple flames at once. The flames roared and raged, burning everything in its path. The scorching heat permeated the surrounding air.
The fire completely destroyed the phantoms of the nine emperor’s souls in one fell swoop. Then, the Black Sun burst out and attacked Lear.
Lear’s expression changed as he hurriedly shouted, “Silver Wolf, block its attack for me!”
Whoosh! A huge silver phantom of a wolf appeared in front of Lear and blocked the attack. The Black Sun shot out and smashed into the Silver Wolf’s body with a massive boom that even distorted the air.
During this exchange, Shen Fei continuously backed away. As for the Silver Wolf, it was sent flying hundreds of meters away. It landed heavily on the ground, but it was mostly fine.
The Silver Wolf was summoned by Lear using a secret technique. It was a demonic beast that he had personally raised. Therefore, it had some of Lear’s bloodline power. This Silver Wolf had the power of a Saint-tier cultivator.
“Silver Wolf, bite it!” Lear shouted.
The Silver Wolf waved its huge wolf claws and charged at the dark purple Black Sun. It opened its bloody mouth and revealed its sharp fangs.
Boom!
The Black Sun and Silver Wolf collided and an earth-shattering boom erupted as endless shockwaves spread out.
The Silver Wolf hurriedly retreated. Its ferocious wolf face was filled with pain. It had been injured by the Black Sun.
“Damned thing! Die! Soul-devouring Art!” Lear shouted coldly. He immediately activated a forbidden secret technique. The mystic Qi in his body was being consumed like mad. In his spiritual core floated three pills. These three pills released a dazzling golden light.
As Lear circulated his forbidden secret technique, the three pills exploded with a majestic aura that surged into the Silver Wolf’s body. Immediately, the wolf’s body burst out with a dazzling silver light. The aura on its body suddenly soared.
In the blink of an eye, the Silver Wolf’s aura increased exponentially. Its aura was even more terrifying than before. The Silver Wolf rushed toward the Black Sun again and fought it fiercely.
Rumble… Soon, the ground began to shake.
Shen Fei’s eyes darkened as he said, “Black Sun, Ancient Prestige!”
Then, the Black Sun shot out. It released a terrifying aftermath that landed on the Silver Wolf.
