Chapter 1546: The Domineering Xuan Beast Race
In terms of appearance, that person didn’t look that different from a normal person. However, he was a giant, almost six meters tall. He was also very muscular, and with each step he took, people felt the ground trembling.
This giant had powerful, sharp eyes and dark red hair that stood up like needles. He wore steel hoops on his wrists. As his arms moved, s.p.a.ce rumbled.
“They… they’re experts from the Xuan Beasts!”
The Xuan Beasts were the ancestors of the ancient races. They had once mated with the human race, resulting in the ancient races.
However, later the human race had declined, and the Xuan Beasts had stopped having relations with them. They also rarely interacted with the ancient races, but the ancient races always said that they were the descendants of the Xuan Beasts while rejecting their human ancestry. That resulted in rumors saying that they had a certain relations.h.i.+p.
As for this time, the rumors said that it was the Xuan Beasts that had captured Cloud. It was only thanks to Peng Wansheng’s connection to them that the Xuan Beasts had moved to capture Cloud and force out Long Chen.
Now that this large man appeared, everyone’s heart shook. Did this mean the Xuan Beasts were about to join in on this matter? If that was really the case, then Long Chen’s death was even more a.s.sured.
This expert was a true Xuan Beast. After reaching the tenth rank, Xuan Beasts were able to transform into human form at will. They could also return to their original form whenever they wanted to, such as in battle.
The most powerful aspect of the Xuan Beasts was their terrifyingly powerful physical bodies, as well as their great longevity.
After reaching the tenth rank, they would spend most of their time in human form. After all, humans were the most spiritual of all creatures. In human bodies, they were able to feel a closer connection to the Heavenly Daos.
Before reaching the tenth rank, the Xuan Beasts would cultivate their innate divine abilities. After reaching the tenth rank, they began cultivating the Heavenly Daos, which made their divine abilities even more terrifying. The tenth rank was a dividing line amongst Xuan Beasts.
Behind the large man were another eight experts with intimidating bodies. Although they weren’t as large as the first man, they were still giant compared to humans.
Their Blood Qi looked like it might explode at any moment. Their bodies possessed unimaginable destructive power.
The leader of this group had only just arrived when Peng Wansheng rushed over in front of him, bowing. “Big brother Hu Xiaolin, junior Peng Wansheng greets you.”
This expert was from the Darkwing Devil Tiger race. All the Xuan Beasts of each race had one surname. So the tiger races were all surnamed Hu, and the eagle races were all surnamed Ying.
The ancient races followed the same tradition. Only by acting the same as the Xuan Beasts could they feel a sense of belonging.
Hu Xiaolin’s name had the meaning of a tiger roaring through the forest, scaring away all other beasts. He was the number one junior expert of the Darkwing Devil Tiger race. He truly had the power to be a tiger that intimidated all others.
“Hm, you’re not bad. Once you start to awaken, you can rejoin my Xuan Beasts,” said Hu Xiaolin.
Peng Wansheng was delighted to receive Hu Xiaolin’s praise. “Many thanks! Big brother Xiaolin, come, let me introduce you. These two are-”
Hu Xiaolin waved his hand. “Why does Long Chen’s side have so few people? Are you sure Long Chen will come?”
Clearly, Hu Xiaolin didn’t care about the others and was only willing to speak to Peng Wansheng. One reason was because of his bloodline, while another was because of his potential. As for the others, he didn’t care about them. That was the arrogance of the Xuan Beasts.
Sha Guangyan immediately felt awkward, while Ye Qingkuang was angry but didn’t dare express it.
After all, the one he was facing was a giant man like a steel tower. Even Ye Qingkuang, who specialized in power, was tense. Hu Xiaolin was giving him a feeling of immense pressure.
Peng Wansheng said, “Big brother Xiaolin, don’t worry. Everything’s been arranged. One of those people is even one of the Dragonblood Legion’s members. Since one has come, the rest are certain to come.”
Hu Xiaolin nodded. He suddenly turned to the white-robed man amongst the neutral camp. He indifferently said, “Just now, I heard you shouting from a distance. It was very irritating. I’ll bestow you with death.”
Hu Xiaolin raised a finger. A black light pierced toward the white-robed man.
In that instant, everyone felt their bodies become heavy. It was like s.p.a.ce had frozen, making it so that they couldn’t move.
The black light pierced the white-robed man in the head. He collapsed, his soul dissipating. He was unable to resist at all.
“How can you randomly kill others?!”
The white-robed man’s death immediately provoked the neutral camp’s fury. They all began to shout at Hu Xiaolin.
The white-robed man had had a certain level of fame amongst them. Although he was just a rank nine celestial, his toughness had won him their admiration. But Hu Xiaolin had killed him as soon as he arrived.
“So what if you’re from the Xuan Beasts? Brother Bai Lin never provoked you! All he did was express his viewpoint. Why did you kill him?!”
