Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2769 - Secured



Chapter 2769 - Secured

Yuan Yu hadn’t immediately left, and had now lost his chance.

"Stop!!" Yuan Feng’s group of five, as well as their nascent spirit beasts, all had horrified expressions on their faces, their hearts pounding. They stood behind Zi Zhen, almost scared silly. Everyone understood that, if Yuan Yu died there, all of them would lose their heads! It might even drag in nine generations of their families!

Who didn't know that Yuan Yu was the most favored offspring of their rex mundi?

The five fifth-level cosmic cartographer experts were all trembling harder than ever. Even Etherean Yuan Yin was still a bit dazed. She had never expected that Yuan Yu, who was lawless in the Nascentis Mundus, would start to cry and beg for mercy in the blink of an eye.

"We can spare his life, but you all stay away first." Tianming walked in from the cave entrance.

"Who?" Yuan Feng and the others only noticed him then. Someone wanted to make a move when they saw that his level seemed low, but before they could act, Yuan Yu's painful cry cut off their thoughts.

"Stay away," Tianming said.

"Go!" Yuan Feng observed for a moment. He found that Zi Zhen wasn't speaking. Apparently, this young man was the decision maker, so they had to obediently listen and retreat.

Zi Zhen was controlling Yuan Yu. In fact, her control was already terrifying. It wouldn't be a problem to take the order fragment, but Tianming wanted insurance. Without saying a word, he came to Yuan Yu, holding the Grand-Orient Sword.

"Who... are... you?" Yuan Yu found it incredible to see someone of the same age group as him.

Tianming didn't respond to him. Instead, the Grand-Orient Sword plunged into his body and started injecting the Imperial Sword Prison into him. The sword-shaped heavenly patterns surged into his astrons and cosmic charts, eliciting another round of screaming and struggles.

"Stop!"

"He's the young master of our realm of Nascentis Mundus, the son of our rex mundi!”

"Let him go, we can discuss things!"

Yuan Yu being captured was their biggest disadvantage. The five elders were desperate and pale, but they didn't dare to approach and could only shout.

"Don't worry, we only want money, not lives. Obediently cooperate, and you'll only suffer a bit," Tianming said as the Imperial Sword Prison continued pouring into Yuan Yu's body.

At that moment, Yuan Feng and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, believing what Tianming said. If they really wanted to kill Yuan Yu, it wouldn't be so complicated. Zi Zhen was probably able to shatter his two cosmic charts with a punch.

"Speak! What do you want?" Yuan Feng asked with a serious expression.

Tianming, while infusing the Imperial Sword Prison, made Yuan Yu's body turn gold and black. He straightforwardly said, "The grade-three order fragment."

When those words came out, the nascent mediums all took a cold breath.

"How do you know about the order fragment?" Yuan Yu widened his eyes. For a smooth transaction in the Xenoabyss, it had to be kept quite confidential. The only possibility of it leaking was that, among the ten elders, one was an insider for Tianming.

"Don't worry so much. Now that your life is in our hands, when the order fragment arrives, just hand it over to me and everything will be over. We'll amicably part ways," Tianming said.

"How do you know the order fragment will arrive later?" Yuan Feng's brows furrowed even more. Actually, no matter how one put it, losing the order fragment was better than Yuan Yu losing his life. If the order fragment was gone, they could buy another one. But if Yuan Yu died, everyone would lose.

So, after the initial panic, the six of them were much calmer.

Tianming didn't bother saying anything more. He concentrated on spreading the cosmic impulse all over Yuan Yu's body. His current opponent was more difficult to control than Gu Chunhan, as his physique and talent were much stronger.

"I know who you are!" Yuan Yu suddenly exclaimed.

"Hmm?"

"You’re Li Tianming! The person wanted by the New Shrine!" Yuan Yu gritted his teeth. Three hundred million walking soulstones!

"Oh? The news spread so fast?" Tianming said.

"We have transmission stones, so of course it's fast," Yuan Yu said.

It seemed that the outworlders in this Ninth District were more well-informed.

"You offended the New Shrine, so you...." Yuan Yu wanted to gloat.

"What about me?" Tianming asked with a smile.

Yuan Yu suddenly clenched his teeth and closed his mouth. No matter how bad Tianming's situation was, his own situation was even worse now. He didn't dare to say that Tianming's life would soon be over.

Yuan Feng had already communicated with Yuan Long. Four of the others continued toward the cave to bring the order fragment back, while one returned to the astralscape to call for reinforcements. They would now do their best to delay as long as possible.

However, the situation was unsolvable for them because they couldn't get stronger people to come in.

Tianming knew that they were deliberately delaying, thanks to Yin Chen. "I advise you to act quickly. The stuff I just infused into him will take effect in half an hour. When that happens, if I don’t get the order fragment, he’ll lose his life on the spot," he said.

"Oh?" Yuan Yu still didn't believe it.

Tianming sneered. He didn't do anything as Yuan Yu watched his seventh heptastar organ shatter and turn into scattered astrons, leaving him feeling empty for a moment.

"I believe it! I believe it!" He screamed and quickly said to Yuan Feng, "Let Yuan Long come faster. I don't want this order fragment anymore! Don't complicate things!"

"Yes!" With those words, Yuan Feng could rest assured and abandon the order fragment. He urged the others, and not long after, they returned with the order fragment. Apart from the one who had gone back to report, there were a total of nine fifth-level cosmic cartographers who just stood there, not daring to act.

Tianming had smoothly obtained a grade-three order fragment. To be honest, because the opponents were outworlders, he’d thought his chances wouldn’t be great and had just come to try his luck. But unexpectedly, after Zi Zhen had recovered from her illness, the situation had become thrilling.

"So this is a grade-three order fragment...." A grade-one order fragment was somewhat similar to a hexagonal card. This order fragment, on the other hand, was like three hexagonal cards stuck together, making it three dimensional. A light circulated on it, indescribably strange.

It was worth a billion soulstones! Tianming only glanced at it a few times, feeling a deep sense of emotion, but he still put it away.

"Release him!" Yuan Feng said.

"Don't worry, we came to make friends. The gift has been accepted, so of course we'll return the person to you." At that point, he smiled and continued, "But if, after we release the person, any of you still wants some excitement, this young master might suddenly die. Don't blame me."

"When will you lift what you planted just now?" Yuan Feng asked through clenched teeth.

"After we safely leave, it’ll naturally be lifted. Rest assured, from the beginning, I said we were only after wealth, not lives. Hehe." With the hostage in hand, the other side had no bargaining power and could only pray that Tianming wouldn’t go crazy.
