Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“d.a.m.n, these old things…”
Lin Bei couldn’t help but curse in his heart. He couldn’t help but think of the foreign troops that he had encountered previously. Those people had sworn to die and refused to submit. As long as they met the enemy, they would fight to the death and rivers of blood would flow.
Compared to those soldiers, these people in front of him… were actually so afraid of death.
He really did not know what the soldiers who had been bathed in blood on the battlefield would think when they found out what their commanders were like.
However, this was not something Lin Bei needed to consider.
In his opinion, these people being able to cooperate so well had helped him a lot. In this way, the work that would have taken an entire day to complete might only take two hours.
Such efficiency was gratifying.
On the other side, Xiahou Mingyi, who was standing in the void, was playing with the green flames in his hand with his head lowered. From the flames, there was a trembling wail.
“Lord Xia Hou! I… I’m just a small fry. Please let me off! I… I’ll definitely be at your service in the future!”
A terrified shout came from the green flames.
“A small fry? Hehe… You’re not a small fry. On the contrary, you were a big shot to me in the past. Also, the term ‘small fry’ really doesn’t suit you. Instead, you’re just a villain.”
Xiahou Mingyi sneered and exerted a little force with his palm. The green flames were immediately compressed until they deformed, as though they would explode at any moment. “By the way, you said you wanted to serve me?” “Yes! I’m willing to serve you!”
An anxious shout came from the green flames.
“Hehe, I think we should forget it. Don’t you know how you climbed to this position? If I remember correctly, when you framed me back then, what were you already? Hmm… I remember that you already had 38 masters, right? Now that more than ten thousand eras have pa.s.sed, how many masters do you have? A hundred? Or a thousand? Ten thousand?”
Xiahou Mingyi sneered repeatedly. He did not care about the pleas for mercy coming from the green flames.
Compared to that detestable thief, the traitor in his hand was the existence he hated the most!
If not for this person, he would not have been framed. Not only had he lost his true love, but he had also been thrown into the h.e.l.lfire Abyss for more than ten thousand eras. If not for his fortuitous encounter and gritted his teeth to survive the crisis, he would probably be on the verge of death.
Therefore, the current him only wanted this despicable person to suffer a fate worse than death and suffer more pain than he had in the past 10,000 eras!
“No! You can’t do this! I’m one of the commanders a.s.signed to the front line! If you treat me like this, your crimes will be unforgivable and you will be punished by the Heavenly Star Academy! Xiahou Mingyi, I advise you to consider it carefully and not be stubborn! There’s no benefit for you to be ruthless to me!”
Seeing that begging for mercy was futile, the green flame immediately changed the topic and berated sternly, “Also, you don’t want Mantuo to be exiled by the Luosha race because of you, right?”
“Are you threatening me?”
When Xiahou Mingyi heard that, his expression sank. A purple-black flame suddenly shot out from his hand. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the green flame had been devoured.
“Ahhhh—!!!”
A mournful wail sounded from the flames, but Xiahou Mingyi did not kill him. When the green flames were devoured to the size of a walnut, he slowly stopped. He looked indifferently at the swaying green fireball in his hand and said coldly, “What did you say just now? I didn’t hear you clearly. Please say it again.”
“I… I was wrong! Lord Xia Hou, I… I won’t dare to do it again! Please, let me live!”
“Oh? Let you live?”
Xiahou Mingyi sneered when he heard that. Then, he said indifferently, “Then tell me, why should I let you live? Just because… you are born rebellious?”
“No! It’s not like that! Believe me! I… I have many secrets that no one knows! If you’re willing to let me live, I’m willing to tell you all these secrets to help you!”
“Secrets?”
Xiahou Mingyi narrowed his eyes when he heard that. He raised his chin and said indifferently, “Continue. What secret do you know?”
“I know a lot of secrets! Among them, the information about the world fragments is useful to you!”
An excited voice came from the green flames. “With your current strength, if you can devour the world fragments and obtain the power of the world inside, you will definitely improve and become even stronger!”
“World fragment?”
When Xiahou Mingyi heard that, a glint flashed in his eyes. The other party’s words tempted him.
He had seen information about the world fragments in ancient books. It was indeed a rare treasure of the world, but the problem was that according to the books, it was impossible to devour and refine the world fragment without special methods.
Could it be that… this guy had a way to help people devour world fragments?
With this in mind, Xiahou Mingyi’s eyes flickered as he stared at the swaying green flames in his hand. He said in a deep voice, “Tell me about the world fragment..”
