Chapter 580 Summoning: Part 2
Pei Lin looked at the reply, and calmed down, as she pretended to continue chatting with her best friend, Orphis. Pei Lin looked at the reply, and calmed down, as she pretended to continue chatting with her best friend, Orphis as she quickened her pace a little and slowly passed through the Corpsedemon.
The middle-aged woman moved quietly with the flow of people, but her lips kept on opening and closing slightly without anyone noticing.
“Did you find that b*tch?” She could not help but resentfully grumble.
“She should be close by, but there are too many people here, and it won’t be easy for us to make a move here.” A male voice came from the earpiece in the woman’s ears.
“That little b*itch, she dared to release my son’s exclusive fodder! When I catch her, I’ll flay her skin off, and rub salt all over her! I’ll make her life so painful that she wished she was dead!”
The resentment and anger in the voice of the middle-aged woman, pressured even the man on the otherside of the earpiece.
“Up to you, the Yeshi clan has already fallen, and that brat is no longer the mistress she was. Up to you to deal with her as you please when you capture her.” The man calmly said.
Suddenly the middle-aged woman’s eyes lit up as she saw a young girl in sunglasses in the distance that was standing before a stall to buy food.
Without a word, she closed in with an irrepressible viciousness in her eyes.
“Leave this place.” — Holy Light Shines Upon You.
On the other hand, a message suddenly appeared in Pei Lin’s vision.
She frozed for a moment. She had just taken a picture and sent it to her master a moment ago, and for her master to send such a message back.
That had her stunned for a moment.
In any case, she still believed her master.
This was because she and her Master, Holy Light was a world apart, and as there were no conflict of interest, he would not do anything to harm her for no reason.
“I’m a little tired, let’s go back.” She suddenly said.
“Tired?” Orphis was slightly dumbfounded.
The other three person too were a little surprised, but everyone seemed to go along with it.
Pei Lin was looked high upon in their circle, so her words carried some weight.
“If you’re tired then let’s go back. Pei Lin might have been worn out with her training for the past few days.” The girl of the couple smiled as she said.
“Then let’s go back then.” Master Zheng nodded as well. He actually did not mind if he actually came here or not, while he may look cold on the surface, no one knew that his heart was completely head over heels for Orphis.
But he masquaraded that very well, and no one could see or sense anything.
“Then let’s go back and get something cooling.” Orphis suggested with a smile.
Pei Lin and the rest quicky turned around and walked towards the direction they had came from.
And that was fortutiously the completely opposite direction of that middle-aged woman.
….
….
Holyspirit Palace.
Lin Sheng looked calmly at the few people before him.
“The Sin Dragon Matriarch and the Giant King brothers had returned to their own Hidden Realms. I need them to give me an explanation for their desertion.”
Inside the great hall, the Night Lord, the Steel Lord, Adolf, the Centaur Lord were all present.
Nurgana and Khadula both stood behind Lin Sheng on both sides.
“What explanation? The Sin Dragon Matriarch had fled the battle, and did not contribute anything during the critical moments of the Holy Sanctum! She deserves nothing but death!” The Steel Lord sneered.
“Same goes for the Giant King brothers. They must be given the greatest of admonitions and punishments, or else history will repeat itself.” The Centaur Lord also said with righteously indignation. “Especially when I was fighting alone for so long without any reinforcements, that feeling…”
“Holy Emperor, how about I go in your stead then.” The Night Lord volunteered. “Tenko Kasumi is needed to hold fort in the Holy City, things will be much more manageable if I personally go there myself. After all, there are more than one Palatinate in the Sin Dragon Matriarch’s camp.”
“Since when have you become so diligent?” The King of Steel wondered.
“What I hate the most in my life are traitors!” The Night Lord spat coldly.
“Then I shall leave that to you.” Lin Sheng had no reason to reject. He then habitually tapped the armrest of his throne, and drew everyone’s attention with a crisp tap.
“I will need you to focus on dealing with the aftermath at the Fairy King’s end.” He looked at Adolf.
“Don’t worry, master.” Adolf said with a firm expression.
The Fairy King had fallen in battle for the Holy City, and in any case, fair treatment must be given to the Fairy Kingdom.
Moreoever, the Fairy Kingdom are already holding the election for a sucessor to the Fairy Kingdom’s throne, and by then the new Fairy King will come to the holy city, and take the place of the former Fairy King.
“Alright, the matter with the traitors with be left to the Night Lord. And I’ve summoned all of you here for another important plan.” Lin Sheng said calmly.
“Another important plan?” Aside from Nurgana, everyone else was surprised.
Now that the Holy City had unified everything, and was without equal, there was no one left to fight against the Holy Sanctum. With such power, what was there that Lin Sheng, the Holy Emperor would need to pay such grim attention to?
Lin Sheng looked indifferent.
“In this plan, Khadula will be the vanguard, and will go ahead for reconnaissance, and follow up with the Sanctum Guards that will be mobilized.”
Lin Sheng clenched the armrest.
“Forsake mercy, forsake pity, we shall attain peace through our determination. And everyone, I shall need your strength…”
“Our strength is yours!”
“Our strength is yours!”
Everyone bowed down in salute.
….
….
The Corpsedemon World.
Daywalker Council.
The white moon hung over the sky.
At the peak of a majestic snowy mountain, a silver fortress stood in the middle of the whiteness.
Giant white birds flew around the fortress, and let out low, and long wails from time to time.
A side exit on the right side of the castle.
A large white-robed man with a plush cloak held a walking stick as he trudged through the snow step by step.
He was very old and had just left the castle. His stamina was not like what he used to be, and felt a little tired.
For a Corpsedemon this was something impossible.
“Byron, you think your proposal would go through?” A snow-white long-haired girl suddenly appeared in the snow.
Not only the girl’s hair was wide, even her eyebrows and iris were white.
“Unlikely.” The white-robed man shook his head slightly. “The Daywalker Council had been ruling the day for far too long, and all of the clans had turned into their own interest groups. It won’t be easy trying to get them to change their ways.”
“But you had made great progress this time.” The white woman said calmly.
“That was because of the chain reactions following the Dursha Massacre.” The old man shook his head. “Also, why did Pei Shangyu suddenly chose to support me? Did you managed to learn the truth?”
“His daughter had been attacked, and perhaps he suspect that it was the doing of the radicals.” The white girl shrugged.
I heard that it was done by the Genesis-level Corpsedemons, and it was also because it was done by the lowest-level Corpsedemon that it did not attract much attention.” The girl shook her head. “You should know very well that at this sensitive period that a Line-level Corpsedemon and above would be looked at by many.”
“You are right… this is a fortuitous event.” The old man smiled.
To have another councillor support him was indeed something congratulatory.
But while the status of a councillor is high, but that did not mean they were the strongest. They were only representatives of the large interest groups behind them.
And the strongest ones, were still the Omnia-level Corpsedemon.
