Chapter 401 - 401 Lear Reappears
The man was wearing half a bronze mask. The uncovered part of his face was covered in blood-red runes. The runes seemed to have a life of their own as they jumped and flickered mysteriously.
His eyes were also covered by a black cloth; no one could see his eyes.
“We meet again!” A strange smile appeared on the man’s lips.
“Who on earth are you?” Aloy shouted. She believed that the other party was very dangerous. He was definitely an expert.
“Me?” The man let out a creepy chuckle. “I am the person you have been looking for.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man exposed his face completely. It was Lear!
“You?!” Aloy’s expression changed drastically into a look of great shock.
“What’s wrong? You must be surprised!” Lear smiled devilishly as he looked at Aloy.
Previously, after Lear had turned into a Beastkin, he had made an appearance once but never again after that. He did not expect them to meet again inside the wormhole.
‘But why is he here? Is he stuck here?’ Shen Fei’s eyes shone as he watched Lear.
“Lear, I didn’t expect you to still be alive,” he said in a dangerously low tone.
“That’s right. Of course I’m still alive. Not only that, I’m even stronger than before.” Lear smiled playfully and looked at Aloy. “You should know that I have been waiting for this moment for a long time.”
“There will be a chance to settle the score between us sooner or later,” Shen Fei said coldly.
“No, I shall send you to hell today!” Lear retorted. He waved his arms, and the vital Qi in his body burst out. Then, the spectral chains that bound him exploded, and a terrifying pressure was released from his body.
“These chains limit your strength,” Shen Fei muttered as he stared at the chains that bound Lear.
“You have good eyesight.” Lear snorted coldly. He charged at Shen Fei.
Bang! In the blink of an eye, the two of them clashed. Lear recovered quickly, but Shen Fei was not to be outdone. He even had the upper hand.
Boom! Shen Fei activated the Ultimate Supremacy Technique and unleashed a monstrous power. It was like a volcano erupting. The terrifying fist he shot out turned into a force lightning bolt. It struck Lear’s body and sent him flying.
Lear spat out blood, and his face was pale.
His body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.
“I didn’t expect a trash like you to grow your strength so quickly!” Lear said coldly.
Shen Fei looked at Lear and snorted coldly. “This time, I will definitely kill you with my own hands.”
He walked straight toward Lear.
“You?” Lear looked at Shen Fei with contempt. Suddenly, he roared, “Death Sentence!”
His eyes were filled with killing intent. His entire body was surging with terrifying energy. Then, Lear raised his arms, and a huge black skull appeared above his head. It emitted a terrifying baleful aura, as if the Grim Reaper had descended.
This skull was inscribed with dense runes and very mysterious and obscure words. An aura of death also rippled out from it.
“God of Death, Death Sentence!” Lear shouted again.
In an instant, a series of ear-piercing sounds came from the black skull. It was like the wailing of ghosts combined with the howling of wolves.
“Charge!”
Immediately after, the skull charged toward Shen Fei.
Terrifying explosions erupted throughout the area. In an instant, the black skull devoured all of Shen Fei’s vitality. His entire body was about to be annihilated.
“This time, I will definitely take back what belongs to me!” Lear shouted coldly. His eyes flashed with excitement and bloodlust.
“Uncle, how long are you going to make a fuss?” Aloy looked at Lear and frowned.
“Aloy, don’t be a busybody. This matter has nothing to do with you. This is a grudge between Shen Fei and myself,” Lear said coldly.
“Hmph, I don’t like not being able to repay my debts,” Aloy said coldly.
“In that case, come with me. In the future, the world will be in my hands. This way, you won’t owe Shen Fei any favors.” Lear looked at Aloy and smiled evilly.
“Dream on!” Aloy shouted coldly.
“Then don’t blame me for being cruel.” Lear’s eyes flashed with a cold glint as he stared at Aloy. He took a step forward and was about to make a move when…
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly said, “You dare?”
Shen Fei pulled Aloy behind him and placed one hand in front of Lear.
“Get lost!” Shen Fei shouted.
“Brat, you are courting death!” Lear’s expression turned even colder, and he looked murderous. He coldly shouted, “I’ll kill you today! If I can’t have her, no one can!”
In an instant, a deafening roar came from Lear’s body; a terrifying pressure erupted from his body and enveloped the entire palace ruin.
The entire structure shook.
Shen Fei frowned when he saw this. A cold glint flashed across his eyes.
“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!” He ordered.
Lear snorted disdainfully. “Hmph, you want to use that stupid bird of yours to fight me? I’ve been cultivating all this while. I’ll let you see my new spirit beast.”
Then, a huge Black Eagle appeared in front of everyone. This Black Eagle was hundreds of meters long.
It flapped its wings and hurled a destructive fireball toward the Flame Owl. A cold light flashed in the Flame Owl’s eyes as it also unleashed its Blazing Charge skill. The two fireballs collided.
The flames of both sides surged wildly like a firestorm that filled the sky.
The Black Eagle’s level was above Count level. The Flame Eater Owl had also reached the high Count rank.
The two sides were evenly matched in terms of combat strength, and neither could do anything to the other.
“Black Eagle, suppress it!” Lear shouted coldly.
...
In an instant, endless flames burst out from the Black Eagle’s body.
The Flame Origin Pearl’s power completely erupted inside its body.
It formed a terrifying sea of fire that completely covered the Flame Owl. The raging flames burned its body and the Flame Owl found it hard to withstand the attack.
In an instant, a series of explosions spread throughout the entire palace structure.
When Shen Fei saw this, his expression was extremely solemn.
“Flame Owl, Flaming Bramble Inferno,” Shen Fei once again ordered.
The Flame Owl’s body immediately spawned a slew of fiery brambles with astonishing corrosive power. They pierced through the flames and wrapped around the Black Eagle’s body.
The Black Eagle unleashed endless flames to burn through the Flame Owl’s brambles, but it was useless.
