Chapter 468 - Memorial Service (1/2)

“Boom…”

The goshawk carried the utterly dead lizard over to Ou Yangming and Big Yellow, then he dropped the carca.s.s hard to the ground.

“Master, your martial art is glorious, splendid, and simply unparalleled. The spirit insect couldn’t resist you at all,” the goshawk flattered Ou Yangming without any hesitation.

Big Yellow widened its eyes. It looked at the disintegrated centipede then at the calm Ou Yangming, who was holding a military saber. It felt like he contributed the most in the fight.

Nonetheless, the big yellow dog immediately shook its head and barked.

“Goshawk, which one of your eyes saw that? I was the one that killed the insect!”

The goshawk cast a cold look at Big Yellow. Although it did not say a word, its indifference perfectly expressed its att.i.tude.

‘What do you think you are? How could you have resisted a real spirit beast and kill it when it’s from the upper realm?’

Big Yellow read the goshawk’s mind right away, and it jumped almost 10-meters high. It bared its teeth furiously at the goshawk. If it was not because the spirit bird was not its enemy, it would have attacked it with stone awls by now.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming shook his head slightly. Apart from the fact that Big Yellow seized an advantageous opportunity, it could eliminate the centipede because its natural gift was also an intrinsic restraint against the insect. On top of that, the big yellow dog possessed an impenetrable armor and was a.s.sisted by the young fellow, hence it could slaughter the centipede without any danger. On the contrary, Big Yellow’s best skill did not seem to be effective against the goshawk, and it could be hara.s.sed by the spirit bird’s wind blade instead.

If the goshawk and the big yellow dog were to have a deathmatch, Ou Yangming would not be optimistic about the latter even if he did not consider its disadvantage of having just become a spirit beast.

Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, “The Heavenly Thunderbolts are gone.”

When they turned to look, they noticed that the thunderclouds in the sky had dispersed, and the thin pa.s.sage, which initially seemed to have covered the entire s.p.a.ce, disappeared as well. At the end of the day, only black traces were left behind.

Despite that, they could not help but feel downhearted when they fixed their gazes on the black traces.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow naturally knew who drew the Heavenly Thunderbolts, thus they were dejected. Even though the goshawk did now know Elder Universe, it naturally understood what happened after witnessing everything.

The Insects lured Ou Yangming and his companions away because they wanted to capture him and the goshawk halfway.

Moments ago, the peculiar thin pa.s.sage almost let the Insects complete their mission but just before they succeeded, Elder Universe showed up and used himself to attract the Heavenly Thunderbolts.

Elder Universe’s death was inevitable since the Heavenly Thunderbolts struck, but he clung to a spirit beast when it happened. Therefore, the thunderbolts spotted the lizards and mercilessly zapped both the elder and the insect into fine powder.

“Senior, rest in peace…” Ou Yangming lowered his head and mumbled. He had a fierce look in his eyes, and he made up his mind at that moment. There were no debts without creditors; he would certainly seek justice for Elder Universe if he had the chance to enter the upper realm.

At the very least, the Venerable One that hosted the pa.s.sage would not die a natural death.

The goshawk flapped its wings and asked hesitantly, “When are we going to take a look?”

While the Heavenly Thunderbolts had naturally gone away after they destroyed the Inescapable Trap, the goshawk was still afraid of it. In fact, even Big Yellow looked at that area warily.

The thunderbolts were too powerful, so they stayed away and dared not remain inside the zone when they descended.

Fortunately, an even more formidable aura filled Heaven and Earth at that point, allowing them to escape safely. If that was not the case, even Ou Yangming would have been caught in the disaster.

Though there were no longer signs of the Heavenly Thunderbolts, they were still fearful and did not have the guts to enter the zone. After all, they would regret it if they accidentally drew the thunderbolts again.

Ou Yangming stated after some thought, “Wait here, I’ll go in myself.”

The goshawk was stunned. “Master, that’s not good. How about we wait for 3 days? I’m sure the repercussions will be gone by then.”

Big Yellow nodded in agreement. “Yes, this fella’s finally saying something normal.”

“Senior Universe died to save me. If I can’t even collect his corpse, how can I feel at ease?” Ou Yangming sighed and waved his hand. “Don’t move around.”

As soon as his voice died away, he flashed into the dangerous zone.

The goshawk’s eyelids twitched, and it thought, ‘Struck by the Heavenly Thunderbolts, even if the old fella’s ashes didn’t scatter, he would’ve been completely burnt already. Is the risk worth it…

‘But Master hasn’t arrived at that boundary anyway, so he shouldn’t trigger an irreversible situation even if there are repercussions.’

Big Yellow t.i.tled its head to ponder for a while, then it tipped its toes toward the zone.

The goshawk looked at it but smiled smugly.

‘This little fella is really courting its death..’

Next, Big Yellow arrived somewhere. There was no mark on the spot, but it seemed to have sensed a mighty yet mysterious power. It carefully stretched its leg forward.
