𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒈𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓, 𝑳𝒆𝒕’𝒔 𝑻𝒂𝒍𝒌 𝑨𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆
Lisa’s roar finally made the members of the Flaming Red Squad move away. They immediately retreated from the long table and out of Bian’s attack range.
Throughout the whole process, the Undead Lord propped his chin with one hand and looked at Lisa’s actions without saying a word.
Lisa finally understood that the Undead Lord really wanted her to fight Bian. If she did not take action, he would really let the members of the Flaming Red Squad die under Bian’s hands.
Even she was not Bian’s opponent, let alone the teenagers of the Flaming Red Squad.
Lisa could not watch her naughty brat be torn apart by Bian under her nose.
“Jeon Lisa, be careful!” Mingye suddenly stood up. When he saw Lisa and Bian confronting each other, the pores all over his body tightened nervously.
Bian frantically pounced on Lisa. Lisa immediately jumped up from the table and the arrow in her hand flew towards Bian’s eyes like lightning.
The rough wooden bow and arrows could not cause any harm to the rough and thick-skinned Bian. The arrows could only infuriate him again and again.
While she was jumping away, she had to keep Bian’s attention on her. If Bian’s attention was shifted towards the members of the Flaming Red Squad, even Zhanye, the strongest member of the squad, would not be able to dodge even a single blow from Bian. Only death awaited them once Bian attacked them.
In such a situation, her movements were greatly restricted. The massive difference in strength between Bian and Lisa also pressured Lisa until she could not breathe. She could only rely on her speed to constantly dodge and retreat, continuously attracting Bian’s attention with the bow in her hand.
Bian’s every attack was explosive. Almost all the tables and chairs in the banquet hall had been smashed into dust by Bian’s sharp claws, even the walls had caved in from Bian’s impact.
The Flaming Red Squad stared nervously at Lisa.
It was not that they did not want to take action, but they knew that with their strength, they could not even protect themselves in front of Bian. If they rushed forward, they would only disturb Lisa’s momentum and drag her down.
They could only stand aside and look on helplessly as their Boss continued to tangle with Bian in order to save their lives.
At this moment, resentment towards the Undead Lord rose in the hearts of every member of the Flaming Red Squad.
They did not understand why the Undead Lord would attack them at the banquet when they were the ones who were invited, then forcing their Boss to fight a savage beast to the death in order to save them.
Lisa’s grace in giving them a new lease of life had finally overcome their awe of the Undead Lord. They secretly clenched their fists, wishing that they had not won this competition.
If they knew that the result would be this, they would rather lose!
Bian’s attacks were so powerful that Lisa did not dare to let him approach her at all. The only thing she could rely on was her speed and agility.
But she knew that this situation would not last long. Endurance was a big weakness of an undead. Although their recoverability was strong, she had no chance to breathe in the face of Bian’s continuous attacks.
As time passed, Lisa could clearly feel that her physical strength was rapidly depleting, her speed gradually slowing down, and the distance between her and Bian was getting closer bit by bit.
With Lisa’s speed reduced, Bian directly forced her into a corner!
“No!” When Mingye saw that Lisa was in a desperate situation, the nerves he tried to suppress finally collapsed. He suddenly got up and wanted to rush to Lisa.
The Undead Lord suddenly took action and sent Mingye flying with a palm strike.
“Who dares to interfere?” The cold eyes of the Undead Lord swept across everyone in the hall. The Flaming Red Squad, who were ready to pounce on Bian and fight to the death to save Lisa, stood stiffly in place.
The pressure of the Undead Lord made them unable to even move their fingers.
Kehr frowned. He really didn’t understand why the Undead Lord wanted Lisa to die!
He was the one who discovered Lisa. He was the one who noticed Lisa’s talent and recommended her to Deathfire Academy. It could be said that Kehr had a hand in Lisa’s development. He had always wanted to push this girl, who was very much to his liking, to a better position so that her teachings could be spread to more undead.
But he never thought that the result of recommending Lisa to the Undead Lord would be like this!
Lisa held her breath and stared at Bian. Taotie was restless in her body and about to rush out at any time.
Should she expose her identity or take a gamble?
Lisa’s head spun rapidly in a very short time.
All of a sudden, she opened her mouth.
“Is it just to kill innocent people?”
Lisa’s words echoed in the silent hall.
Bian’s heavy breathing was like pieces of soldering iron hitting the ground.
But a strange scene happened. Bian, who was ready to tear Lisa apart, suddenly stopped his claws. Although his bloodshot eyes were still crazy, there was a trace of struggle.
“Everything has a soul. Who can judge right and wrong? It is a sin to deprive others of their lives without permission.” Lisa tried hard to restrain her expression and maintain a calm appearance.
Bian’s movements became a little stiff, and his forward posture suddenly converged. He sat on the floor and stared at Lisa’s small face with bloodshot eyes.
“It’s a sin.” A deep voice suddenly came out of Bian’s mouth. The blood vessels in his eyes gradually faded, but they were still red.
Bian’s blurted out words stunned all the undeads in the hall.
Holy smokes!
The beast spoke!
“You destroyed someone else’s property.” Lisa pointed to the debris behind Bian with a taut face.
A frown appeared on Bian’s hideous face.
“You almost killed an innocent teenager.” Lisa pointed to the member of the Flaming Red Squad she had saved before.
Bian’s frown became more vivid.
Taotie, who was originally clamoring in Lisa’s body to come out and fight to the death with his brother to protect his master, instantly calmed down.
The grumpy Bian calmed down. He seemed to be thinking about the crimes Lisa had accused him of.
The fight finally stopped, and all the members of the Flaming Red Squad breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though they did not understand why their Boss’ baffling words had caused the cruel beast to stop all its attacks, but… everything was good as long as the beast stopped!!
It turned out that in addition to taming undeads, their Boss also mastered beast taming skills!
The Undead Lord looked silently at Lisa, who had calmed Bian down, his cold eyes flashing with an unfathomable look.
“I won’t compensate for anything.” Bian was silent for a long time before he squeezed out such a sentence from his huge mouth.
“…”
The eyes of all the undeads in the hall popped out.
Holy smokes!
What on earth was going on?
Where was the promised battle between life and death?
What about fighting to the end?
Why did he suddenly mention compensation?
None of the undeads present could accept such a twist.
As for Taotie who crouched in Lisa’s body, he was currently worshiping his master’s “beast taming” skill. He realized that even though his fourth brother’s mind was not clear, Lisa could still talk some sense into him!
“Master, master! How did you do it?!” Taotie simply wanted to hug his master’s thigh and wag his tail.
Lisa secretly rolled her eyes. Did Taotie have to sound so excited?
“You taught me.”
Taotie, who was happily wagging his tail, felt dizzy.
“I taught you?”
“Yes.”
“When did I teach you to tame my fourth brother?”
“You told me that Bian is so upright that he doesn’t even recognize his own family when acting out those acts of righteousness. This shows that his nature is deeply rooted within him. Just like you, even if you are tortured to death, as long as it involves eating, you will immediately react.” Lisa’s method of dealing with Bian was actually inferred from the characteristics of Taotie and Yazi.
Taotie was a glutton. No matter when, his ultimate goal was to eat. Even after being imprisoned by elves for so many years, he did not think about taking revenge on the elves in the cage. Instead, he thought about how to get something more to eat.
Yazi was bloodthirsty. Even though he had signed a contract with Haruto, he did not restrain himself in the slightest. During the beast tide, he was besieged by demon beasts and fell into a bitter fight. However, he only felt excitement and glee, and the bloodlust in his heart was completely released.
It could be inferred that all of Taotie’s brothers had their own weird quirks, which had been deeply embedded in their bones and could never be erased. Whether they were conscious or not, their essence was buried deep in their hearts. Once touched, they would immediately react.
Lisa grasped Bian’s upright nature and liked to judge right and wrong, trying to stimulate Bian’s awakening with such words.
As a result, Lisa made the right bet!
“…” Taotie felt that something was wrong, but Lisa’s words made him unable to refute!
That was right. Eating was the most important thing for him!
Taotie, who had fallen into Lisa’s thoughts, instantly felt that he was extremely smart.
He could actually teach his master to tame his fourth brother!
Oh, oh, what a sense of accomplishment!
Taotie, who was filled with thoughts of “I can’t beat you, but I can tame you”, was rolling around in Lisa’s heart lake.
Bian looked at Lisa arrogantly, but there was a faint trace of guilt on his hideous face.
It was as if he had realized that he had been doing something wrong.
The battle ended in such a dramatic way.
The Undead Lord suddenly stood up and snapped his fingers. Immediately after, a huge iron cage fell from the ceiling and directly imprisoned Bian again. Bian, who was being watched in the cage, went berserk again, and his eyes that had just recovered became crazy again.
Dozens of skeleton soldiers quickly came in from the door, tied up the cage with huge chains, and dragged the cage out of the hall.
Everything that happened just now was like a dream. The Flaming Red Squad even wondered if they were still asleep.
Bian was taken away, and the skeleton soldiers came to clean the hall. A moment later, except for the broken table, the banquet hall was as neat as if nothing had happened.
However, everyone who witnessed the entire sequence of events was dumbfounded.
The Undead Lord looked at Lisa and slowly opened his mouth.
“Jeon Lisa.”
“Yes.” Lisa’s expression was serious. In fact, she had already cursed the eighteen generations of the Undead Lord in her heart.
“Tell me how you tamed Bian.” The Undead Lord looked at Lisa indifferently with a calm appearance. He did not have the slightest guilty conscience about threatening Lisa and the Flaming Red Squad into a dead end.
Lisa secretly gritted her teeth and forcefully suppressed the urge to slap him. She calmly said, “Each of the good sons of the Dragon God has their own nature they cannot suppress.”
A trace of emotion finally appeared on the Undead Lord’s nearly paralyzed face.
“Go on.”
“A tiger’s body and a dragon’s head. That huge beast should be the legendary Bian. Bian is eager for justice and speaks up for justice. I am merely guiding it according to its nature,” Lisa’s answer was filled with half-truths and half-lies.
Even though she was curious as to why such an “upright” beast would say the words “I won’t compensate for anything”…
The Undead Lord listened quietly without any reaction.
On the other hand, the frightened members of the Flaming Red Squad cast amazed looks at Lisa.
Their Boss was indeed the most powerful! She could even discover the enemy’s weakness in such a crisis!
Boss! Please let us hug your thighs!
Kehr was also surprised that Lisa could guess Bian’s identity and grasp his weakness. Even he could not tell that the beast just now was Bian, one of the nine sons of the Dragon God.
In fact…
If not for Taotie, Lisa would not have discovered Bian’s identity so quickly.
In terms of the nature of the nine dragon sons, Lisa already knew it like the back of her hand!
The dining table was broken, so they could no longer eat. The Undead Lord motioned for the others to leave.
Just as Lisa was about to leave, she was suddenly stopped by the Undead Lord.
“Jeon Lisa, you stay.”
“…” Lisa suddenly felt a dark cloud hovering over her head.
After the beast incident, the Flaming Red Squad was very worried about Lisa’s safety, but how could they with their identities fight against the Undead Lord? No matter how unwilling they were, they could only be forcibly taken away by Kehr.
“There’s no point in you staying there. My Lord… will not make things difficult for Jeon Lisa.” It was not easy to bring a group of unwilling teenagers out of the palace. Kehr tried to comfort them, but even he himself felt very uncertain.
The Undead Lord’s attitude against Lisa was obvious, but he did not understand why the Undead Lord was so against Lisa.
They should not have met before.
“We won’t leave. We’ll wait here for the Boss.” Zhanye suddenly showed his stubborn side. He stood at the entrance of the palace and refused to leave.
All the members of the Flaming Red Squad also stood by his side.
Sal passed by with Fengling with an expression of watching a good show.
However, Fengling unexpectedly walked away from Sal and automatically stood with the Flaming Red Squad.
Sal looked at Fengling in surprise.
Fengling, under the complicated gaze of the members of the Flaming Red Squad, said expressionlessly, “I am now a member of the Flaming Red Squad.”
In the banquet hall, only Lisa and the Undead Lord remained.
Lisa secretly paid attention to the movements of the Undead Lord.
The protagonist of this banquet was clearly the Flaming Red Squad, but Lisa noticed that the attention of the Undead Lord seemed to be directed at her, as if she was the protagonist and the Flaming Red Squad was the foil.
Lisa still remembered that when she confronted Bian, Mingye seemed to want to stop her, but the result was…
He was sent flying by his father!
Lisa suddenly felt that it was not a big deal for the Undead Lord to use Bian to kill her.
When Mingye left, he was carried out by Kehr! It could be imagined how hard the Undead Lord had slapped him just now.
Lisa was curious as to what she had done wrong for the Undead Lord to dislike her so much.
Not only did he not like her, but he also wanted to kill the Flaming Red Squad.
This guy’s logic did not make sense at all.
So her final conclusion was…
The Undead Lord was a madman!
Furthermore, he was a madman who loved murder and blood.
It was as if the selection competition was a form of entertainment for him. The banquet just now was probably, in his mind, an enjoyable dinner.
Right now, she was alone in the hall with this lunatic…
The Undead Lord suddenly got up and turned to another exit of the hall.
Lisa blinked and stared at that cold back.
“Follow me,” the Undead Lord said coldly.
Lisa could only get up and follow him. She didn’t know what kind of inhumane “activities” the Undead Lord had arranged for him. Lisa, who had personally experienced the “horrifying recreational activities” of the Undead Lord, felt that her heart was really very strong. After almost being played to death, she could still follow this lord of the Undead race with such a calm mind.
Passing through the long corridor, the lights in the corridor became dimmer and dimmer. The skeleton soldiers standing on both sides were like statues. They did not even breathe as they stood upright. Only their two black eyes flickered with a dark green light.
Gloomy, terrifying…
If it were someone else who was timid, they would have gone crazy from fright after staying in this palace for a day.
But the Undead Lord liked this dark gothic style.
She did not know how long she had walked. The corridor was long and winding. Lisa even drew a map in her mind. According to the route she had taken before, she should be at the end of the palace. Moreover, she discovered that after passing through a stone door, the stairs under her feet began to extend underground.
From beginning to end, the Undead Lord only said the word “keep up”. After that… he did not even look back at Lisa.
“Master, be careful. This guy is not a good man,” Taotie carefully said.
Lisa was speechless.
First of all, the Undead Lord was not a human being at all, okay?
Secondly, although Taotie had suffered under Bian’s claws before, Bian was still Taotie’s brother. It would be strange if Taotie was happy to see his brother being kept as a pet by the Undead Lord.
If it were not for Lisa, the foodie Taotie would have jumped out to save his brother.
Evidently, Taotie disliked the Undead Lord.
𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒅
Passing through the long corridor, Lisa’s eyes only reflected the Undead Lord’s back. She did not know where he was taking her.
The journey seemed endless. Finally, the Undead Lord stopped in front of a dark door.
The moment the door was pushed open, a powerful divine aura swept through the room.
The strong divine aura made Lisa’s whole body tingle.
Suddenly, the Undead Lord turned around, grabbed Lisa, and threw her into the room.
After a moment of dizziness, Lisa barely managed to steady herself. The divine aura that surged from all directions made her body ache.
Amid the acute pain, Lisa finally saw what was in the room.
With one glance, she was stunned on the spot.
The huge room was empty, with only a dazzling sword hanging in the air chained down by countless chains.
The divine aura in the entire room came from that long sword.
This aura made Lisa feel so familiar.
“Jeon Lisa, who on earth are you?” The Undead Lord was shrouded in a faint gray mist, and a trace of ferocity appeared on his gloomy and handsome face.
Lisa could not stand under the divine aura. She half-knelt on the ground in pain as beads of sweat continuously rolled down her forehead.
“All purebred undeads who enter this room will die in an instant. Jeon Lisa, you are not an undead. Who are you?” The Undead Lord created a boundary around himself with his death energy. He slowly walked into the room and the door closed behind him.
Lisa clenched her teeth tightly. The pain all over her body reminded her of when she was thrown into Jungkook’s arms in her undead state.
In the blink of an eye, a black mist flew out of Lisa’s body and condensed into a tall figure in mid-air, rushing towards the Undead Lord at lightning speed!
“Taotie…” Lisa trembled in pain. She could clearly feel the divine aura burning her skin bit by bit, and the death energy in her body broke out at this moment, constantly accelerating her recovery speed. On one side was burning pain, and on the other side was endless rapid recovery. Lisa’s pain seemed to never end.
Taotie and the Undead Lord fought directly. Although Taotie had been promoted to a Holy Beast, the difference in strength between him and the Undead Lord was still huge. Before long, Taotie was defeated and knocked to the ground by the Undead Lord.
The moment he fell to the ground, Taotie dragged his severely injured body to Lisa’s side, but his furious eyes on his bloody face were fixed on the Undead Lord.
“A holy beast? It is impossible for an undead to sign a contract with a magical beast. The only ones who can sign a contract with magical beasts are humans. Are you a human?” The Undead Lord no longer cared about Taotie. He just looked at Lisa with his pair of eyes.
Lisa almost fainted from the pain all over her body. She could only bite the tip of her tongue repeatedly and force herself to stay awake.
Lisa finally understood why the Undead Lord had repeatedly targeted her.
Because from the very beginning, he had already discovered that she was not an undead. Everything he did was just to force out her true identity step by step.
But when did the Undead Lord notice her abnormality?
She had been working hard to hide herself, even secretly watching the matches of the Flaming Red Squad.
Lisa had been trying to reduce her presence. Even when she went to the competition venue, she would hide in the crowd after disguising herself.
She was afraid that the Undead Lord would notice her abnormality. This was the first time she had appeared in front of the Undead Lord. She thought that the Undead Lord would not discover her identity in this short meeting with him.
However, man plans but God directs.
Lisa did not know what went wrong for her to be exposed so quickly.
After receiving no response from Lisa, the Undead Lord was not angry. There was no expression on his cold face. He just looked at Lisa coldly.
“But how can humans have the smell of the God race?”
The words of the Undead Lord were like lightning striking Lisa’s heart, erasing the pain all over her body in a short time.
“Interesting. You can sign a contract with a holy beast, but you can also appear as an undead, and you even have the smell of the God race hidden in your body. What exactly are you? A mixed-race?” For the first time, a smile blossomed on the face of the Undead Lord. That smile was like a red spider lily spreading on the edge of the blood pool of death. It was beautiful, but it gave off an extremely gloomy aura.
Lisa almost passed out from the pain. Taotie looked nervously at the Undead Lord. Although he knew that he was not the opponent of the other party, he would never allow the Undead Lord to hurt Lisa.
“Don’t even think about touching her.” Taotie clenched his teeth and forcefully suppressed the blood in his throat.
The Undead Lord glanced at Taotie and said in a gloomy tone, “Taotie, right? I won’t kill you. I will lock you up with your brothers.”
There was no trace of emotion in the eyes of the Undead Lord. They were as cold as a cold lake.
Taotie looked angrily at the Undead Lord.
The Undead Lord raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to Lisa.
Taotie struggled to pounce on the Undead Lord, but was kicked away mercilessly.
The Undead Lord grabbed Lisa’s collar and picked her up.
Lisa felt pain all over her body.
The other hand of the Undead Lord grabbed Lisa’s chin and forced her face up.
“Do you see that sword?” The voice of the Undead Lord suddenly dropped a notch, and his cold voice was like a gust of cold wind.
Lisa was in so much pain that she could not keep her mind calm, but she did not want to show weakness in front of the Undead Lord. She bit her lips hard and forced herself to stay awake.
The shining sword that tied up by black chains hung in mid-air. A sacred aura that enticed people kept emanating from the sword.
Layer after layer of chains could not block its light.
“The first divine weapon of the God race, it possesses the power to protect the God race. It can cut open space and tear apart barriers.” The voice of the Undead Lord slowly sounded in Lisa’s ears. It was unknown whether he was talking to Lisa or himself.
“There was a rumor that there was a divine stone that descended together with the Lord God and Satan when heaven and earth were just born. The divine stone was divided into two pieces. One half was taken away by Satan to be forged into the Night Magic Blade with the power to devour souls. The other half was taken away by the Lord God to be the first divine weapon to protect the God race.” The Undead Lord suddenly paused and looked at Lisa.
“Do you recognize it?” The Undead Lord narrowed his eyes and looked at Lisa.
Lisa breathed heavily and tried to squeeze out a few words from her teeth.
“I… don’t…”
Even though Lisa was in so much pain that she wanted to die, she could vaguely sense a familiar aura slowly integrating into her body. The source of this power was the sharp sword hanging high above.
The Undead Lord raised his eyebrows slightly, apparently not satisfied with Lisa’s answer.
“Then let me tell you what this divine sword is called.” The Undead Lord paused for a moment and said with a smile, “It is called the Asura’s Blade, the divine weapon of the number one War God of the God race.”
Lisa was shocked.
The word ‘Asura’ exploded in her mind like a bomb.
“It’s strange. You clearly don’t recognize the Asura’s Blade, but why do you have the aura of the War God on you?” The Undead Lord lowered his head and smelled Lisa’s neck.
“When Mingye came back, I already knew something had gone wrong. Why was there the aura of the God race in my son’s body, and why did this aura feel so familiar? Hasn’t the War God been frozen for a long time? It wasn’t until Satan found me and told me that the War God has returned and is living in a human experimental body that possesses the characteristics of several races and a faint aura of the god race that made me realize you are the vessel where the War God resides.” The Undead Lord issued a low laugh from his throat.
As soon as Mingye returned, the Undead Lord had already noticed that he was carrying a trace of godly aura, which evoked the deep memories of the Undead Lord.
In a distant battlefield, the owner of this aura once brought to the Undead Lord memories of near destruction. This was an aura he would never forget in his life.
Another contact with this aura made the inner emotions of the Undead Lord explode completely.
Doubts and shock intertwined.
It wasn’t until Satan reappeared that all the answers were revealed.
Lisa stared at the Undead Lord in disbelief. Sure enough, Satan had really come into contact with him, and the intelligence of the Undead Lord was far beyond Lisa’s expectations. With just that little clue, he could actually reveal the truth of the whole matter.
The IQ of the Undead Lord was absolutely the highest among all the rulers Lisa had ever seen!
Unfortunately, she was not in the mood to praise the other party’s intelligence. Her body was in so much pain that it was about to explode, and the attitude of the Undead Lord…
It made Lisa feel that she was doomed!
“Where is the War God? Let him out, or I don’t mind tearing your limbs and digging him out myself.” The voice of the Undead Lord was so soft that it made people’s hair stand on end.
Lisa gasped.
“What? You still don’t want to come out by yourself? Then I can only do it myself.” The Undead Lord chuckled and reached out a hand to Lisa’s chest.
His slender fingers cruelly pierced into the flesh between Lisa’s chest.
The pain of her flesh being pierced made Lisa want to die. She wanted to faint several times, but the Undead Lord kept pouring his death energy into her body, forcing her to stay awake.
Even Lisa could not bear to be tortured with a clear mind.
Just as Lisa thought that she was about to be torn apart…
A loud sound suddenly sounded from outside the door. The Asura’s Blade hanging high in the air released an ear-piercing sword cry at this moment!
𝒀𝒂𝒌𝒔𝒉𝒂
The locked door suddenly burst open, and a suffocating divine aura assaulted their faces. The brilliance of Asura was once again released.
Before the Undead Lord could react, he felt a powerful force sending him flying, and Lisa, whom he was restraining, was forcibly taken away by the source of that force.
A fiery red figure followed closely behind. The moment the tall figure touched Lisa, he directly sent her into the arms of that red figure.
“Vermilion Bird, open the boundary.” The cold voice was mixed with suppressed anger.
“Master!” The moment Vermilion Bird received Lisa, he used his flames to create a small boundary to isolate Lisa from the divine aura outside.
The acute pain finally ended and Lisa could finally breathe.
When Vermilion Bird saw the bone-deep wound on Lisa’s chest, his scarlet eyes turned blood-red in an instant.
“Save Taotie…” Lisa gritted her teeth and whispered.
“Dragon God!” Vermilion Bird hugged Lisa and shouted.
The Dragon God rushed to the unconscious Taotie.
On the other side, the Undead Lord was forcibly sent flying. When he came back to his senses and saw who was attacking him, his cold eyes flashed with a blazing light for the first time.
“War God… You’re not dead… You’re really still alive! Hahaha!” The Undead Lord, who was vomiting blood, had no time to care about the blood in his mouth. He stared at the figure standing in front of him.
He was so tall, so awe-inspiring, and exuded indifference from head to toe. Even so, he was still incomparably noble.
But beneath the surface indifference, the Undead Lord also felt the anger that was being restrained with great effort.
Jungkook stood coldly in front of the Undead Lord, his golden eyes narrowed slightly.
“I knew it… You won’t die so easily… Satan has reappeared in the world. You must still be alive. I was right. You have also appeared.” A crazy smile appeared on the handsome face of the Undead Lord. He did not seem to feel the killing intent of the other party at all.
“Yaksha, that’s enough.” Jungkook looked at the Undead Lord coldly, and he called out an unfamiliar name.
But because of this one word, the smile on the face of the Undead Lord faded in an instant, replaced by ferocious anger!
“Yaksha? I am no longer Yaksha! How ridiculous!” The Undead Lord laughed coldly, his eyes full of disgust for this word.
“The Lord God lied to me! He said that he would let me lead the Undead race to follow the God race! I am a god! I listened to the Lord God and willingly gave up the body of the God race and came to the Howling Abyss as the Undead Lord! But what did I get? The Lord God lied to me! He abandoned the Undead race! He banished me to this barren land forever!” The more the Undead Lord spoke, the crazier he became. His eyes were full of hatred.
And what he said completely stunned the Dragon God who was treating Taotie.
When he first entered the God race, he had heard of this name.
Yaksha…
Back then, he was born with Asura in the god race. He was a powerful superior god second only to Asura.
When the previous War God fell, Asura, who was still called Jeon Jungkook, competed with Yaksha for the position of War God.
Yaksha was defeated by Jungkook, and the latter succeeded as Asura, the War God.
Jungkook climbed to the peak of the God race, and the defeated Yaksha suddenly disappeared.
There was once a legend among the gods that without Jungkook, Yaksha would become the strongest god under the Lord God.
However, it was precisely because of Jungkook that countless powerful superior gods of the god race were suppressed, including the Dragon God and Yaksha.
They were powerful, but Jungkook’s strength had completely overwhelmed them.
Jungkook could already fight Satan. It must be known that before the emergence of Jungkook, the previous War Gods were not Satan’s opponents. Satan and the Lord God came to this world together. Before Jungkook took the position of War God, no superior god could defeat him except the Lord God.
Jungkook was the strongest among all the gods.
It was also because of him in the last war between gods and devils that they could defeat the alliance between devils and undeads after the Lord God disappeared.
Without Jungkook to fight against Satan, they would have long been wiped out.
Yaksha, who was slightly inferior to Jungkook, was naturally not weak.
After Yaksha was defeated, he suddenly disappeared. The whole God race was asking around about his whereabouts, but no one could be sure where he went.
The Dragon God did not expect that the Undead Lord was Yaksha!
And Yaksha becoming the Undead Lord was actually arranged by the Lord God!
It had been a long time since Jungkook succeeded the War God. At that time, the Dragon God had yet to be born in the Qianlong Continent. He had never seen Yaksha at all, let alone associate this powerful god with the Undead Lord.
When the Dragon God became a superior god, the Undead race had become one of the most unpopular races.
The Dragon God still remembered that when the Lord God mentioned the Undead race, his expression was always very complicated. Many superior gods had proposed to send troops to dispose of the Undead race, but the Lord God had never allowed it.
The Dragon God did not understand this reason before, but now it seemed that the answer was obvious.
The Undead Lord was the leader chosen by the Lord God himself for the Undead race, but no one knew what happened later that led to the current situation of the race.
The Undead Lord vented his anger and disappointment. Because of the arrangement of the Lord God, he willingly gave up his noble status as a superior god. Because of the arrangement of the Lord God, he was willing to be reduced to an undead without a heartbeat.
But in the end, he got nothing.
Not long afterwards, he was completely abandoned by the Lord God in the Howling Abyss and could no longer get any news from the Lord God. He had no idea what he was going to do.
He could only wait bitterly for the Lord God’s next instructions to arrive.
But after waiting for a long time, there was still no news.
Yaksha’s heart fell into an icehouse bit by bit.
Ultimately, he became the real Undead Lord and led the Undead race to stand in the camp of the devils.
“Jeon Jungkook… No, I should call you Asura. Looking at the current me, are you particularly disgusted? Haha! The former superior god has been reduced to an undead! Haha! Is there anything more ridiculous than this?” Yaksha roared at Jungkook, shouting out the tens of millions of years of injustice and grievances.
Jungkook just quietly looked at Yaksha, who was venting his anger and grievances, and gave no response.
“War God…” The Dragon God looked at the silent Jungkook.
The voice of the Undead Lord issued a series of gloomy laughter.
Suddenly, Jungkook reached out and grabbed the neck of the Undead Lord, lifting him up from the ground and pressing him against the wall.
A powerful hand cracked the wall behind the Undead Lord.
“This has nothing to do with me.” Jungkook calmly watched the twisted smile on Yaksha’s face disappear bit by bit.
Jungkook tightened his grip. If it were not for the fact that undeads did not need to breathe, Yaksha would have already stopped breathing. Even then, his throat was about to be broken.
The Undead Lord, who could easily defeat Taotie, was so powerless in the face of Jungkook.
Those who were second would always be second.
“War God! Don’t kill him…” Seeing that Jungkook was about to strangle Yaksha to death, the Dragon God immediately shouted.
Jungkook had no intention of letting go. He tightened his grip. Yaksha’s face was deathly pale, but he did not struggle in the slightest. He just looked at Jungkook with his eyes full of mockery.
It was as if he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Lisa’s injuries had recovered to a certain extent. She was shocked when she saw Jungkook choking Yaksha!
“Jungkook! Don’t kill him!”
Jungkook stopped the moment Lisa spoke. He slowly released his hand and looked at Yaksha coldly.
If Taotie had not informed Vermilion Bird of the danger in the first instant, they would not have arrived in such a short time. At the thought that Lisa would have died if he had come a little later, he wanted to turn Yaksha into ashes.
Yaksha slumped against the wall and sat on the ground with a huge sneer on his handsome face. He suddenly laughed, and his laughter was creepy.
“Asura, why didn’t you kill me?” At this moment, Yaksha had laughed enough. He looked at Jungkook with a defeated face.
“I’ve always kept the Asura’s Blade for you. As long as you use it, you can kill me cleanly. I almost killed that experimental subject. Won’t you kill me? Even if you don’t kill me, I will still attack her. Devils will come back to the world soon, and I will continue to lead the Undead race to join the camp of the devils. If you kill me, everything will end.” Yaksha leaned against the wall with a twisted smile on his handsome face.
Jungkook did not even look at Yaksha.
Lisa stood up with Vermilion Bird’s help. The identity of the Undead Lord surprised her, even though she did not know what the word ‘Yaksha’ meant.
But the superior gods…
Why did the Lord God arrange for a superior god to lead the Undead race?
Why should they completely eliminate the Undead race?
“The Undead Lord? Or should I call you Yaksha?” Lisa looked calmly at Yaksha, who had almost killed her just now.
Yaksha coldly pursed his lips, seemingly not intending to pay any attention to Lisa.
Lisa did not care about Yaksha’s silence. She raised her head and looked at the constantly trembling Asura’s Blade.
“You kept this sword because you hoped that one day Jungkook would use it to end your ridiculous life. From the very beginning, when you knew that Jungkook was still here, you never thought of hurting him. You thought of using him to understand yourself, didn’t you?” Lisa now understood that everything Yaksha had done before was to infuriate Jungkook and make him kill him.
He wanted to die, so he did not need any reason to do anything.
Yaksha was silent. The smile on his face melted quietly like the snow in spring. He did not dare to look into Lisa’s penetrating eyes, so he turned his head away.
Lisa sighed. “The reason why you feel resentful and aggrieved is because you think that the Lord God has abandoned you. Therefore, you act recklessly. You think that as long as you rebel with the Undead race, the Lord God will be forced out. Unfortunately… he has disappeared.”
Yaksha remained silent, but his clenched fist hanging by his sides revealed his inner turmoil.
His silence confirmed Lisa’s guess.
Lisa had already found the situation odd. Yaksha’s strength should be about the same or even higher than the Dragon God, but when Jungkook attacked, he did not resist at all. Under his twisted smile, there was even a trace of relief and expectation.
Jungkook was very strong. Lisa had seen the scene of Jungkook beating up the Dragon God like a punching bag. The Dragon God had almost no room to fight back, but this did not mean that he could not put up a fight at all.
The moment Jungkook attacked, Yaksha even removed the death energy around him, allowing the divine aura in the room to cause scars on his skin.
This was clearly a move to seek death.
His previous roars were merely to vent his indignation over the years and to stimulate Jungkook to kill him.
Lisa suddenly felt that Yaksha was like the Undead race, created by the Lord God and abandoned by him. He was like a child full of expectations that his parents would guide him to grow up, but in the blink of an eye, he found that not only did his parents abandon him, but they even wanted to kill him.
No one could accept such a difference.
“He shouldn’t have lied to me.” Yaksha squeezed these words out of his teeth. These short words completely revealed the sadness in his heart.
“I can be an undead, I can give up my identity as a god, but… but why did he abandon me? If he didn’t want to accept the Undead race, why did he let me come here? Why did he give me hope and just left me with despair?” Yaksha’s eyes were bloodshot as he punched the ground under him.
Blood flowed from his palm and sprinkled on the cold floor. Just like the trace of hope in his heart back then, it flowed out bit by bit, leaving only hatred and despair.
“The Lord God didn’t give up on the Undead race… He didn’t. Many times, many superior gods proposed to destroy the Undead race, but it was the Lord God who came forward to stop them, but the resurrection spell of the Undead race was just too evil!” The Dragon God looked at Yaksha with a complicated expression. He felt that Yaksha was both hateful and pitiful.
“Where on earth did the Lord God go?” Yaksha looked up and asked.
“I don’t know… No one knows where he went.” The Dragon God answered honestly. The disappearance of the Lord God was the greatest mystery in the world.
“I have only been a god for a short time, and I like to cause trouble. I am often beaten up by the War God. The Lord God told me that when he saw me like this, he missed a superior god named Yaksha. He did not abandon you. Although I don’t know why he no longer contacted you, he always has a place for you in his heart.” The Dragon God tried hard to speak for the Lord God. A large part of his knowledge of Yaksha came from the Lord God.
Yaksha was slightly stunned, and a trace of surprise appeared on his pale face.
He still remembered that when he was still in the God race, he often sparred with Jungkook. Every time the Lord God saw him, he would laugh.
“So what? I am already an undead. I have brought the Undead race to stand on the same side as the devils. My hands are stained with the blood of gods. Nothing can go back.” Yaksha leaned against the wall and laughed at his muddle-headedness.
He yearned for the God race, but he would never be accepted by them again. He had even become the target of hatred of many races, the lord of undeads…
“So what if they are undeads? I have never understood why the Lord God abandoned the Undead race, but I believe that as long as undeads no longer disobey the will of the dead and turn them into mindless puppets, the Undead race will become the most popular race.” Lisa looked at Yaksha. During this period of time in the Howling Abyss, she could clearly feel that undeads were not much different from other races.
They also had joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.
They also yearned for light, hoping that they could be accepted by the gods.
Yaksha looked at Lisa in surprise. From the beginning, he only regarded Lisa as a chess piece of Jungkook, but such a chess piece said something that made his heart beat faster.
Being accepted by gods was the wish of Yaksha and every single undead.
But after a moment of excitement, Yaksha once again showed a look of despair.
“The Lord God is missing and the God race has fallen. Who will accept undeads? In the end, we are just an abandoned race.”
Lisa suddenly pointed at Jungkook.
“Jungkook can! You all know that the most powerful god other than the Lord God is Jungkook. He was also the one who led the God race against the Devil race in the war between gods and devils. As long as you guarantee that undeads will no longer resurrect the dead as puppets, Jungkook can accept you on behalf of the God race.”
It was very simple to find a representative for the God race!
With the disappearance of the Lord God, Jungkook was the strongest superior god.
After all, right now, there were only three gods left…
Baekhyun was her brother, so there was no reason not to support his brother-in-law.
The Dragon God was Jungkook’s sandbag. If he dared to object, he would beat him to death!
Lisa’s proposal stunned Yaksha. He was stunned for a long time before he looked up at Jungkook with a cold face.
Jungkook was still expressionless and as cold as ice.
Lisa turned her head and blinked her clear eyes. She acted cute without any moral principles.
Jungkook glanced at Lisa and turned to the stunned Yaksha.
“If you can ensure that undeads will abide by the agreement, on behalf of the God race, I will accept the existence of undeads. Undeads will enjoy the same right to live as other races.” Jungkook’s voice was not loud, and his tone did not fluctuate in the slightest.
But every word was like a soldering iron that burned Yaksha’s soul.
Yaksha, who had been suppressed for tens of millions of years, finally burst into tears at this moment.
Like a child, he curled himself into a ball and buried his face in his hands as he choked.
He could not remember how long he had been looking forward to this, hoping that he could get the approval of the God race again. He thought he would never have such an opportunity in his life.
When he turned to Satan, he thought that he would be an enemy of the God race for the rest of his life.
Unexpectedly, hope finally arrived.
Lisa silently looked at Yaksha who had lost control of his emotions and could not help but feel sad.
Who could associate the cold and cruel Undead Lord with the curled figure in front of them?
That Lord God was really good at torturing people. Where did he go in the end? Why did he suddenly disappear?
𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒈 𝑷𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝑯𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝑼𝒔𝒆 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒊𝒓 𝑩𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌
After obtaining Jungkook’s approval, Yaksha was excited for a long time before he finally recovered his calm.
Despair and madness faded from his eyes, leaving only a trace of indifference.
In terms of temperament, Yaksha and Jungkook gave off a somewhat similar feeling, but Yaksha’s coldness showed more hostility, while Jungkook’s indifference was directed towards everyone.
“I will change the Undead race, Jeon Jungkook. I know you will never break your promise.” Yaksha sorted out his emotions and stood up. His handsome face once again revealed the domineering aura of a lord.
He called him Jeon Jungkook, not Asura.
Jungkook glanced at Yaksha indifferently.
“Prepare a room.”
Yaksha looked at the still weak Lisa and naturally understood Jungkook’s intention. He turned around and walked towards the door. Halfway there, he suddenly stopped and turned around.
A ball of death energy brewed in his palm, and the Dragon God’s face suddenly changed.
The moment the death energy exploded, the Dragon God subconsciously rushed up.
However, the death energy ball did not attack anyone. It only destroyed the chains binding the Asura’s Blade.
“I will return what belongs to you,” Yaksha said and left directly.
The shining Asura’s Blade finally broke free. It slowly fell from the air and floated beside Jungkook.
Jungkook held the Asura’s Blade in one hand and gripped the divine weapon that symbolized the identity of the War God.
The long Asura’s Blade entered Jungkook’s palm bit by bit and gradually disappeared.
The Dragon God was still ready to attack. He thought Yaksha wanted to go back on his words, but it seemed that he was thinking too much…
Yaksha soon arranged a room, and a skeleton soldier led everyone there.
The skeleton soldiers had no ability to think and only acted according to the orders of the Undead Lord. If it were any other undeads, they would probably flee in the first instant when they felt the divine aura of the Dragon God and Jungkook.
Vermilion Bird and the Dragon God went into Lisa’s room and placed her on the bed with Taotie. Vermilion Bird consciously ran to look through the potions in Lisa’s interspatial ring and pulled out all the useful ones before feeding them to the two wounded people lying on the bed.
“If I were the War God, I would have killed Yaksha.” The Dragon God crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. Looking at Lisa’s condition, he could not help but sigh.
The ability of Jungkook to restrain himself for a certain unscrupulous thief was honestly insane.
It was a miracle that a certain unscrupulous thief could suppress her killing intent and let Yaksha live after she was almost torn into two by Yaksha!
God knew how terrifying Jungkook’s surging killing intent was when he rushed into the room.
Lisa laid on the bed and obediently enjoyed Vermilion Bird’s care.
“Jungkook is not you,” Lisa suddenly said.
“What do you mean?” The Dragon God felt that Lisa’s words were getting more and more profound.
Lisa looked at the Dragon God and blinked her eyes.
“He’s not as simple as you.”
The Dragon God looked at Lisa doubtfully. Simple…
It should be a compliment, right?
But why did he not feel that Lisa was not praising him when he looked at her expression?
“Jungkook may want to kill Yaksha, but without Yaksha, the Undead race will lose their lord, and Yaksha is the only link we have that can reach a settlement with the Undead race. If he dies, the Undead race will certainly stand on the side of the Devil race.” Looking at the Dragon God’s confused face, Lisa could only explain more bluntly.
It was not difficult for Jungkook to kill Yaksha. What was difficult was what the undeads would do once Yaksha was killed.
Yaksha was once a god, and he had always yearned to return to the God race. Under his leadership, undeads would return to the right path.
If it were not for the fact that the Lord God had suddenly cut off contact with Yaksha and disappeared not long after, undeads would have gone along very well with other races.
“I see.” The Dragon God nodded, finally understanding everything.
“Hmph, if it weren’t for that, he would have died long ago.” Vermilion Bird sneered. The thought of Yaksha almost killing Lisa made him want to tear Yaksha into pieces.
Lisa broke into laughter. All in all, she sympathized with Yaksha. He had been tormented so badly. Although he held the highest position of the Undead race, he wanted to die with all his heart.
“Where on earth did the Lord God go? He actually disappeared after causing so much trouble.” Lisa was speechless at the Lord God she had never met before. If he had not disappeared, the devils would not have been so bold as to attack other races, gods would not have been wiped out, and undeads would not have cooperated with devils.
All this chaos basically started from the disappearance of the Lord God.
“I don’t know.” The Dragon God shrugged his shoulders.
After their relationship with Yaksha eased, Lisa and the others stayed in the palace to rest.
The Flaming Red Squad waited outside the palace for a day and a night until they received the news that Lisa would stay in the palace temporarily. As for the specific reason, they did not know.
Without seeing Lisa, the members of the Flaming Red Squad were unwilling to leave. The incident in the banquet hall had left a huge scar on them. They were afraid that the Undead Lord would harm Lisa again, so they simply stood guard outside the palace.
If not for their lack of strength, they would probably dare to force their way in.
Lisa only learned the next day that the members of the Flaming Red Squad were still waiting outside the palace, and she immediately left the palace.
When Zhanye and a group of teenagers saw Lisa, they immediately went towards her, their faces full of worry.
“Boss, are you alright?”
“Boss, did the Undead Lord make things difficult for you?”
Lisa felt warm in the face of these naughty brats’ concerns. She looked at the nervous teenagers with a smile.
“I’m fine. I just have some things to do for the time being and can’t leave yet. You can go back first. I’ll come back to you later.” She still had to stay here. Yaksha had sent someone to bring a message last night saying that he had a lot to say to Jungkook.
The teenagers looked at Lisa suspiciously. They looked at Lisa from head to toe. After ensuring that Lisa was really fine, they left with complicated feelings.
During Lisa’s absence, the training of the Flaming Red Squad would be temporarily handed over to Kehr to supervise until Lisa returned.
Yaksha came to Lisa’s room that night, and Jungkook sat there with an indifferent expression.
The Dragon God, who was staying in another room, quickly ran over.
Right now, Yaksha’s cold aura had faded, only his cold expression remained unchanged.
In this state, Lisa no longer felt scared of him. Yaksha, whose heart was relieved, was getting more and more similar to Jungkook.
From the mouth of the Dragon God, Lisa heard a lot about Yaksha. She also knew that as early as when Yaksha was still a god, he had fought a lot with Jungkook.
In the words of the Dragon God, Yaksha and Jungkook had a real… love-hate relationship!
Yaksha could be said to have been born with Jungkook in the God race. From the moment they became aware of their surroundings, the two of them had been maintaining… the pattern of love and hate.
Yaksha and Jungkook’s talents were top-notch in the God race. The outstanding Yaksha often provoked Jungkook, who he deemed to be gifted. Sparring with each other had become a daily occurrence for them.
Yaksha was once like the Dragon God. Because he was unconvinced by the strength of Jungkook, he repeatedly challenged him, and after being abused, he became more and more courageous…
It was not until they fought for the position of War God that the two of them completely cut off contact.
Lisa could not help but feel emotional about this… pattern of bamboo and horse.
The Dragon God, on the other hand, was very happy, because he finally found a fellow who was as miserable as him and was also similarly abused by Jungkook. The Dragon God felt that he and Yaksha shared a common language, so as soon as Yaksha came, the Dragon God came to seek an alliance.
But…
Yaksha expressionlessly glanced at the Dragon God who was trying to make his presence known in front of him, and then focused his eyes on Jungkook.
He completely ignored the Dragon God’s goodwill.
The scene in the room was very strange. Lisa sat cross-legged on the bed with Vermillion Bird and Taotie lying on her thighs.
The Dragon God bit his handkerchief and looked at Yaksha who ignored him. Yaksha looked at Jungkook with a paralyzed face, while Jungkook sat on the chair with his legs crossed and his ten fingers clasped in front of his chest. He looked at Lisa sitting on the bed with a cold yet gentle expression.
“Sit down and let’s talk,” Lisa said to clear the awkward atmosphere.
“Satan came to me some time ago.” Yaksha confessed. After getting Jungkook’s approval, Yaksha decided to bring the Undead race into Lisa’s alliance. This was not only his wish, but also the wish of all undeads.
“Satan really came to see you? Then you…” The Dragon God looked at Yaksha with a doubtful expression.
“I have already asked someone to prepare a ceremony in a few days. At that time, Jungkook will come forward as the representative of the God race and announce that the God race has accepted the Undead race again,” Yaksha said expressionlessly.
His action would show that he chose to refuse Satan’s invitation.
The Dragon God breathed a sigh of relief.
“Yes.” Jungkook nodded.
“The Devil race will soon reappear, and the God race has fallen. Even if we don’t cooperate with the Devil race, the Devil race won’t mind our absence at all.” Yaksha, as a former ally of the Devil race, was the clearest about the strength of the Devil race. When the God race was still there, with the exception of the Lord God, the other superior gods were still present. Even so, the God race still had to pay a heavy price for victory.
Now that the God race was almost extinct, it was not so easy to fight against the Devil race.
“Are the devils that powerful? They must have suffered a lot in the war between gods and devils.” The Dragon God had died very early in the war, so he was not clear about the situation of the Devil Race at all.
Yaksha shook his head and said, “Many of the devil generals have survived. Of the twelve devil generals, there are still seven left. Although they were seriously injured back then, after such a long time, they have more or less recovered.”
The expressions of everyone in the room immediately became solemn.
The devil generals of the Devil Race were as strong as the superior gods of the God race. At present, the God race only had three superior gods, while the Devil Race had seven…
“And I also heard from Satan that the positions of the five dead devil generals have been replaced by new devils.” Yaksha once again threw out even more despairing news.
