Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2321 - Dongshen Zhuojun

Above the Oldgod Domain, the mountains and rivers were covered by dark clouds all year round. Black nova source swept across, forming various storms. However, under the enrichment of the nova source, the powerful ebons had built all kinds of formations and astralships so that the dark world would never be completely devoid of light. On the contrary, the colorful lights made Ebonia even more beautiful. In a sense, Ebonia’s darkness made for the perfect backdrop. Only with darkness could there be beauty.

The area around the Infinitum Stele wasn't very lively; in fact, it was rather chaotic. Because of the change in the Oldgod Domain, more elders and experts had come to study what was happening. Under the Infinitum Stele were all kinds of top-level astralships, even ether-class ones like the Firmament. That kind of astralship had terrifying destructive capabilities. The Firmament’s nova source was ten thousand times the volume of the Kilostar Capital’s nova source, and of higher quality at that. If Ebonia didn’t prohibit astralship battles, their astralships would definitely be a nightmare to all in the cosmos.

Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue's astralship landed next to the Firmament like an enormous sword being thrust into the ground, somewhat resembling the Infinitum Stele. Domineering and commanding, it was a giant black sword with a huge carving of a saber-toothed tiger’s head on the hilt. Within, Lin Xiao, Dongshen Yue, Feiling, Moran, and Xiaoxiao were all nervously waiting. When they saw that Tianming had safely reappeared in another place after gathering all six walnuts, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ling'er.” Xiaoxiao gently pulled at her arm and said, "Don't worry. I said it long ago. He’s not only cunning, but also lucky. He’ll live a long life."

"Yeah." Feiling pursed her red lips, her worried gaze finally easing up a little.

"That’s right!" Both Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue couldn't help but laugh.

"He’s my grandson, alright. He’s a capable young man, and he’s proved this old woman wrong again."

At first, she had thought it would be enough to train Tianming's women well. But now, Tianming had broken through several times in the Oldgod Domain. He was clearly still a twelfth-level stellaminor, but he could kill Lin Jianxing, who was a second astral phaser. It hadn’t taken Tianming very long to overtake the girls. Over the past two years or so, they had progressed extremely fast, but were still far behind compared to him, especially Moran. With her current cultivation level, Tianming’s prime wonder could crush both of her divine wonders even if they were at their strongest. Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue were very clear in their hearts about who among their grandson, his wife, and two concubines were more powerful.

"He’s definitely a descendant of the Lin Clan, just like me in my younger days!" the confident Lin Xiao said.

"Bullshit! Feng'er is like me, decisive in killing! That Lin Jianxing insulted him so many times. He’s finally gotten his just reward! I’d like to see the faces of the third branch at this moment. I wonder if that horse-faced son of a bitch Lin Yun is vomiting blood now," Dongshen Yue sneered. She was one to repay debts of vengeance and gratitude both, and she had long been unhappy with Lin Yun.

"Well, we shouldn't be killing each other no matter what..." Lin Xiao sighed.

"Go away!" Dongshen Yue kicked him to the ground and cursed, "Go be a saint elsewhere! That bastard Lin Jianxing’s been trying to kill Feng’er. Would you rather our grandson died instead of him?"

The three girls in the back watched Dongshen Yue beat up Lin Xiao and were all dumbfounded. After some time, Dongshen Yue turned around, leading the bruised Lin Xiao to the girls. "Little beauties, don't learn from me. If all three of you are as feisty as me, my grandson won’t be able to take it!"

"So you know you’re feisty?" Lin Xiao asked, aggrieved.

In any case, their dangling hearts had found solid ground because of Tianming's show of strength. They began paying attention to all of the changes in the bees’ nest

......

A little while later.

"Aunt, it's me."

A group of people approached. Dongshen Yue turned around to see an imposing middle-aged expert leading them. He had long, curly hair and was wearing a dark yellow robe. His ears curved like snakes and he had deep eyes. His elegance transcended the world. As he drew closer, Feiling and the others sensed an immense pressure coming from him.

Dongshen Yue's eyes lit up when she saw him. "Jun, you’re growing stronger and stronger. You’ll soon surpass your father and become the number one expert in our Grandnorth Dongshen Clan. With your strength then, you’d be in the top three in the Lin Clan."

"Aunt, I've recently made some progress," said the middle-aged man, Dongshen Zhuojun.

"Grandaunt!" Behind the middle-aged man, a girl dressed in pale yellow appeared. Without saying a word, she jumped on Dongshen Yue, kissed her on the face several times, then started crying. "I thought I’d never see you again!"

"Why are you crying? It's unacceptable behavior. You should learn from my granddaughters-in-law." Dongshen Yue smacked her on the head.

Dongshen Xiaoli froze for a moment, then cried even harder.

"You’ve forgotten about me now that you have granddaughters-in-law!"

"It's good that you’re still alive. Let's go." Pushing her aside, Dongshen Yue turned to Dongsheng Zhuojun. "You’ve brought Xiaoli back. Now you should return to Mount Taia as soon as possible. They’ll need you there."

"Yes, but there’s still disciples in other rooms who might be able to leave. I’ll wait here—Father’s overseeing matters at home," Dongshen Zhuojun said.

"You must be careful on the road back," Dongshen Yue reminded him.

"Don't worry, Aunt, I managed to control it." Dongshen Zhuojun whispered in her ear.

“Good, good! You’ve taken over and the student has surpassed the master. You’re our future." Dongshen Yue was overjoyed.

At that moment, members of the Mundus Enforcers went to see Lin Lingxiao in the Firmament, just next to them. Lin Linglin had already returned.

"What is it?" Lin Lingxiao asked as soon as he emerged from the enormous gold sword.

"A dead disciple of the Swordgod Lin Clan has come back to life. Our people are bringing him here,” The Mundus Enforcers reported.

"What do you mean?" Lin Lingxiao was stunned.

"He died in the nest, but was still alive when he returned to the Oldgod Domain. His heptastar organs are all there, but his lifebound beasts are all dead. He’s still unconscious at the moment."

"How is that possible!" Lin Xiao, who had overheard their conversation, thought it was inconceivable.

"Who is it?" Lin Lingxiao asked.

"Lin Jianxing."

......

In a dark place far away, a man and a woman shrouded in white fog had been staring at the gold and black swords for a long time, their six-fingered hands faintly visible.
