Beastmaster of the Ages

ming’s sword, they were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
And while they hesitated, Su Hongyin was beheaded.

“Ah!” Bai Zijin screamed out and looked at Tianming blankly.
She understood this youth the best, and when she saw him slash out three times at Su Hongyin, she knew what he was doing.
Feiling was too important to him, and no one had thought that Tianming would be so furious dealing with an assassin who failed to do her job.

To Tianming, both Wei Jing and Ling’er were his soft spots, and he would lose his rationality if anyone tried touching them.
But right at that moment, the gates were opened.
Many people walked in, and when Tianming looked up, he saw the West Hall King, Wei Ji, who had immediately rushed in when he heard a familiar scream.

When they came in, they saw Su Hongyin’s head falling.
Tianming had even plunged the Grand-Orient Sword onto the ground before their eyes and tossed Su Hongyin’s head over to the West Hall King, saying, “Hold it well and take it away.”

Just like that, a vulnerable youth with crimson eyes looked at the dumbfounded West Hall King.
In that instant, the entire courtyard was enveloped in dead silence.
The West Hall King grabbed onto the head that was still bleeding.
After a brief silence, he exploded.

Four Hall Kings, along with Bai Zifeng, stood before Tianming.
They had never expected that Tianming would be so impulsive, but they could only deal with it since things had already happened.

“Haha.…” Wei Ji smiled and threw the head onto the ground.
Staring at Tianming, he asked, “May I ask why you killed the Supernal Mentor of my clan? If you don’t give me an explanation, I won’t let this matter rest so easily!”

“Explanation? Then let me ask you: why did you send her to assassinate a disciple of my Future Hall?” Bai Mo sneered.

“Future Hall disciple?” Wei Ji narrowed his eyes.

“That’s right.
The descendant of the Li Saint Clan, foster son of Li Wudi, and the bearer of a pentabane.” As Bai Mo spoke, he placed his hand on Tianming’s shoulder.
They had silently changed Su Hongyin’s assassination target, and Tianming understood what they were trying to do.

Assassinating him was more serious than trying to assassinate Ling’er.
After all, she wasn’t one of the Decimo Dao Palace’s disciples.
It looked like they had no thoughts of letting Su Hongyin go to begin with, just that they had never expected Tianming would be so ruthless.

“What rubbish! What evidence do you have?” Wei Ji raged.

“My son is here to protect them, and when Su Hongyin came to assassinate Tianming, she was caught red-handed.
What more evidence do you need? If it wasn’t for my son, Li Shenxiao’s descendant would’ve been killed by her.
Wei Ji, Su Hongyin is just a Supernal Mentor, so why are you getting so emotional? Or was she acting under your orders?” Bai Mo questioned.

Everyone outside could clearly see what had happened in the courtyard.
Wei Ji fell into a long silence.
He naturally couldn’t admit that Su Hongyin was here to kill Feiling, and not Tianming.
If he did, then wouldn’t it be the same as confessing that he was the mastermind?

Bai Mo’s change in the story made Wei Ji deeply furrow his brows.
Honestly speaking, a supernal mentor’s worth was naturally incomparable to a pentabane, but that was his woman! Even until now, he had no idea that Tianming had just returned from the Spiritual Convergence.
In the end, he could only suck it up and rebuke, “Bai Mo, don’t spout nonsense.
The pentabane of the Li Saint Clan will only benefit the Decimo Dao Palace.
I have no idea why Su Hongyin tried to assassinate him, but it had nothing to do with me.”

He came in furiously to question, but could only leave in depression.
Although he had already been prepared for the worst when he came, he’d never expected that Su Hongyin would be directly killed.

“Then we won’t send you off.
Have a safe trip.” Bai Mo waved his hand.
“Furthermore, let everyone know that if anyone tries to assassinate either of the pentabanes from the Li Saint Clan again, Su Hongyin will be their example!”

Wei Ji’s blood was tumbling in his body, but he could only suck it up.
After all, Su Hongyin had failed in her assassination attempt.
He couldn’t even figure out why she would try assassinating Tianming.
He failed to find out about Tianming’s tracks immediately, and no longer had any more chances.

“Don’t be so happy, the four of you.
The Decimo Dao Palace is still not a place where the four of you make the decisions.” Wei Ji smiled as he left.
He was clearly trying to say that he had other Hall Kings standing by his side, and even the Ancient Theocrats.

“You’re right.
The palace lord is the one who makes the decisions here,” replied Bai Mo.

“Haha!” Wei Ji turned around and left.

“West Hall King!” Tianming suddenly shouted out.
When Wei Ji turned around, he met with Tianming’s ferocious gaze.
Tianming said, “Tomorrow is your grandson’s birthday, and I want to give him an unforgettable present.
Please tell him to wait for me in the Evil Suppression Plaza tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Wei Ji sneered and left.
With that, the storm left quicker than it had arrived.

……

After the West Hall’s party left, the courtyard became quiet.
As Tianming gradually calmed down, the scarlet flare in his eyes slowly dissipated and he said, “I’m sorry.
I couldn’t control myself earlier.”

“It’s okay.
It was mainly up to you, anyway.
Su Hongyin is nothing, and if you can vent your anger by killing her, it doesn’t matter to us.
The reason we didn’t kill her is that she’s only the executor, not the mastermind,” said Bao Mo.
Wei Ji was indeed the mastermind, and Tianming wouldn’t forget about him.

“You and your sister will have to fight with these people if you guys want to grow, and they’ll definitely use underhanded methods to deal with you, and those methods will only become crueler over time.
So it doesn’t matter if you kill Su Hongyin; the key conflict is between them and us.
Su Hongyin’s death only placed our conflict on the table, and it doesn’t matter much,” said Bai Mo.

“Thank you, Hall King.” Tianming was sincerely grateful to them.
Their thoughts were similar to his.

“Actually, you and your sister’s matters are trivial.
It’s mainly on Li Wudi.
He’s the person these people are afraid of.
The day your foster father comes, they’ll definitely take it even further.
After all, your foster father is an octabane monster.” Bai Mo and the others laughed.
But what would they think if they knew that Tianming was a decabane.

“Tianming, you’re different from your sister.
Qingyu is a gentle lady, while you ’re someone with passion and drive.
That’s another reason we supported you in killing today.
Your will is strong, and you’re someone worth forging.
We’re all optimistic about you.
Are you confident in suppressing all of the geniuses in the Divine Capital for our Decimo Dao Palace?” asked the South Hall King, Qin Jiufu.

That meant that Tianming only had to beat people up, while these Hall Masters would clean up the mess for him.
So what did he have to be afraid of?

“I’ll thrash them!” Tianming gnashed his teeth.
When he saw Feiling standing by the door looking touched, he vented out all his emotions.

“Wei Wushang, it’s your turn tomorrow!”
