The Prodigies War

It was a young man around sixteen to seventeen years old. He had a pair of wings on his back that crackled and glowed like lightning, which was very eye-catching.

“He is an expert of the Lightning Wing Clan, a top clan in the East Victory World,” Miss Le explained to Lin Xun as she recognized the other party with one glance.

At the same time, the teenager cast a look at the pangolin’s corpse on the deck before he turned around to say to Lin Xun and the others, “Greetings, fellow cultivators, I had my eyes on this beast first so I was wondering if you could hand it over.” As he spoke, lightning circulated his wings.

Despite his young age, he already exuded a terrifying might and a remarkable demeanor.

“Are you not demanding too much? Just because you said it’s yours do we have to give it to you?” Lin Xun raised his brows.

“Too much? No, I’m asking very nicely.” The teenager smiled leisurely.

“Then let me tell you, forget it, let alone you, even if your elders come, they can’t persuade me,” Lin Xun stated.

“What do you mean by that?” The young man frowned with discontent, lightning rioting around his body and the space quaking violently.

“Can you not tell that we don’t welcome you here? Quickly leave!” Kou Xing shouted.

“Haha, it seems that I am being too kind. I thought that speaking nicely can solve this matter. Who would have thought that I am dealing with a group of barbarians?” The teenager chuckled, his voice filled with undisguised coldness.

“Barbarians?” Lin Xun also laughed, revealing his pearly white teeth.

The young man said disdainfully, “What? Do you not think so?”

Lin Xun soared into the air, saying, “I’m really curious as to what gave you the courage to be so condescending!”

Boom!

His body glowed brightly as he inched forward toward the teenager.

“I guess you want to die!” The teenager sneered. Without any visible movements from him, a giant, silver lightning bow appeared in his grip.

Swoosh!

An arrow fired across the sky like a bolt of lightning, splitting apart the void with a skyful of fiendish qi.

Lin Xun had no intention of evading. He stretched out his arm and effortlessly caught the arrow, instantly absorbing and refining its terrifying power.

“You…” The teenager’s pupils shrank.

That was the Silver Lightning Bolt Arrow, which could kill great cultivators of the Cyclic Derivation Stage, but his opponent caught it without much of an effort.

Buzz!

Suddenly, Lin Xun flicked his hand and the arrow started flying from his grip, several times faster than it was before, creating an ear-piercing sonic boom. It resembled a giant silver sun, and its force was much more terrifying than before.

This is not good!

The teenager’s hair stood on end. He frantically brought out a blue shield.

With a deafening boom, the blue shield shattered to pieces, shooting a rain of light everywhere. The teenager sustained severe injuries and violently coughed up blood, almost losing his balance and falling into the Boundary River.

“Do you know who I am!?” fumed the teenager, his face livid.

Lin Xun smiled. He was least afraid of such a threat. He sped forward once again, balling his hand into a fist.

To his surprise, the teenager from the Lightning Wing Clan was amazing, superior to ordinary great cultivators of the Cyclic Derivation Stage. With a flap of his lightning wings, he could raise his speed to almost the speed of teleportation.

Unfortunately, he had encountered Lin Xun, a demon god-like figure who stirred up a storm in the West Infinity World and who had single-handedly slaughtered half-step kings in the past. In less than a few breaths, he was utterly defeated and flung onto the ship's deck.

The teenager spurted blood from his mouth and nostrils, almost going berserk with anger. He threatened Lin Xun again and again, but in the end, he tasted the pain of a beating from Lin Xun, almost losing his life.

“Speak, why do you want this beast corpse and what are you doing around here?” questioned Lin Xun.

The teenager was breathing feebly as he glared at Lin Xun with a resentful gaze and said nothing.

Lin Xun resorted to torture and finally forced the teenager to tell the truth.

It turned out that in the depths of this starry light-filled area hid a mystical lake with silvery water flowing in it.

The lake only appeared recently, but it often presented mysterious phenomena, so it had attracted the attention of many experts.

After investigation, experts concluded that at the bottom of the lake sat a piece of Star Debris Meteorite that could shake the world. It was as huge as a small hill, and its body was a brilliant silver shade.

The mysterious vision that appeared in the void came from that Star Debris Meteorite!

However, the meteorite was guarded by a dragon-turtle-like colossal monster. Anyone who dared to approach it would be killed immediately.

It was unknown how many experts died with regret at the hands of the dragon turtle.

“We have been hunting down that starry sky beast to act as bait to lure away the dragon turtle so that we could take the opportunity to snatch away the piece of meteorite it guarded.” The teenager told everything truthfully under torture.

“Bait?” Lin Xun raised his brows.

“Yes, we found that the dragon turtle beast is not interested in anything, but it likes to feast on starry sky beasts like that.” The teenager barely managed to raise his head and said, “I’ve told you everything that I know. You should release me now, right?”

Lin Xun asked, “Do you think there is still a chance for you to live?”

The teenager went stiff for a moment, and then rage gripped him and he roared resentfully, “Despicable, if my young master found out about this, he won’t let you off!”

Pu!

Lin Xun applied force to his palm and ended the other party’s life.

“Even a servant is so powerful. The young master he mentioned is very likely to be Xing Yitian, the leading figure of the younger generation of the Lightning Wing Clan,” Miss Le remarked thoughtfully.

“Is he strong?” asked Lin Xun.

“Very strong.”

Miss Le nodded before continuing, “He is said to be extremely talented. Additionally, he trained under an old monster of the Life Death Stage since he was a child, and he had personally received guidance from a true Saint. He is a well-known figure among the younger generation in the East Victory World.”

“What about compared to Yu Lingkong?”

“I’m not sure. I have just heard some things about him. I don’t know much about him, but he wouldn’t be famous for nothing. If you run into him here, you must be extra careful. Generally speaking, genius figures like him would be guarded by many powerful masters.”

Lin Xun nodded.

They continued deeper into the area.

Half an hour later.

They heard a commotion in the distance.

A group of experts was chasing a giant silvery white bear.

The giant bear was extremely powerful and fierce, and its fur was suffused with dazzling light. It launched a palm strike through the air, shattering the surrounding void.

“Let’s attack together, we must not let it escape. This beast has just swallowed a meteorite that was the size of a palm leaf. It’s an extremely rare treasure. We must hurry, kill it and seize the treasure!” someone roared.

Everyone’s eyes blazed with fighting spirit at the mention of the Star Debris Meteorite.

The higher the grade of the Star Debris Meteorite, the more precious and rare the treasures inside it would be. A top-grade meteorite the size of a palm leaf would no doubt fetch a sky-high price regardless of what treasure it contained!

Roar!

However, to the surprise of the experts, the bear seemed infuriated as it launched a counterattack instead of running away.

The next scene sent a chill into everyone’s hearts. In the blink of an eye, the giant silvery white bear grew several hundreds of feet tall like a towering mountain!

Pu! Pu!

It swung its arm across the universe like an iron pillar, blasting the bodies of several experts into a shower of blood and flesh.

“This is bad! Quickly run!”

“Damn it! How can that beast suddenly become stronger?”

“It deceived us! It deliberately pretended to be weak just now!”

The remaining experts panicked and were in a hurry to escape.

However, the giant bear unleashed an earthshaking roar and began its counterattack.

From a distance, it looked as if a silver mountain was moving. Not a single one of the experts it caught up to managed to survive. All were smashed to smithereens.

In the end, only a handful of experts escaped. The rest lay dead on the river.

With no more opponents, the giant bear transformed itself to the height of the average person and opened its mouth to spit out a silver Star Debris Meteorite.

The giant silvery white bear muttered disdainfully, “Hmph, a bunch of idiots. I can’t believe they are after something that belongs to me, do they want to die?!”

“That guy looks rash and tyrannical, but it turns out to be so cunning,” Miss Le said in surprise. She never imagined that the giant silvery white bear could be so scheming. It unquestionably pretended to be weak just so it could wipe out several people in one go.

“Go, let’s go and take a look.” As Lin Xun spoke, he had already started to act.

“Who is it!?” The giant silver bear became guarded. It opened its mouth and swallowed the Star Debris Meteorite before it widened its eyes and stared ferociously at Lin Xun who was approaching it.

“Are you a starry sky beast or a creature from this world?” Lin Xun studied the bear with great interest.

The bear’s fur was glossy and soft, but it exuded an overbearing aura even from just standing there casually.

“I…”

Just as the giant silvery white bear was about to answer, it rolled its eyes and changed its tone, snorting coldly, “It’s none of your business!”

“If you are a starry sky beast, you will inevitably be killed,” Lin Xun remarked indifferently.

The bear was taken aback for a moment and then said, “What if I’m not?”

“You will still die.”

Lin Xun stroked his chin, staring at its huge bear paws. “I have never tried bear paws before. I wonder how it tastes.”

The giant bear roared aggressively, “So I am going to die either way, is that right?”

“It depends on whether you are going to cooperate or not.” Lin Xun grinned. “For example, hand over the meteorite in your stomach...”

Lin Xun froze before he finished speaking because the giant silvery white bear had swiftly slipped away!

“Hahaha, big idiot! Do you think I’m as stupid as you? If I didn’t sense danger from you, I would have slapped you to death already!”

The uncontrollable laughter of the giant bear rang in the distance, filled with triumph and craftiness.

By the time Lin Xun wanted to chase after it, it had already vanished without a trace.

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips twitched imperceptibly. The speed of the bear also surprised him. It was unbelievably comparable to teleportation.

When he looked into the distance, he noticed Miss Le and the others scrunching up their faces, trying their best to hold back their laughter. Who would have imagined that the mighty Demon God Lin would be tricked by a giant fluffy bear?
