492: Chapter 492 Fatten Up Before Killing

A playful smile played at the corners of Qin Ge's mouth. "Can you really protect him?"

His figure flickered as he shot toward Lin Yi's direction.

Just as he approached Lin Yi, the man collapsed on the ground burst like a bubble and vanished.

When Qin Ge turned his head, he found that Lin Yi had already appeared beside the Zerg Matriarch, accompanied by an additional Shadow Demon God Realm Expert!

"The two of you actually dare to intrude into my Blue Star?"

Qin Ge narrowed his eyes, his expression exceptionally cold.

The Zerg Matriarch sneered, "It's not just the two of us. How could we two Middle God Realm experts dare to act presumptuously before Young Master Qin and Miss Tantai!?"

As her voice fell, the Evil Eye Clan God Realm Expert and another entity shrouded in black mist, whose aura was remarkably similar to the Lord of Nightmares, descended simultaneously.

"Lord of the Nightmare Demons?"

A look of seriousness appeared on Dantai Qingyue's exquisite face.

One must know that this was a true Upper God Realm expert.

If a conflict broke out on Blue Star, even she wasn't certain she could secure a victory.

Not to mention the aftershocks of such a battle would most likely destroy the entire Blue Star.

"Qin Ge, you are very strong—stronger than this venerable one expected. You and I should not be enemies!"

"As long as we join forces, all the myriad races will bow their heads in submission."

The voice of the Lord of the Nightmare Demons was like demonic music piercing the ears.

His crimson eyes stared eerily at Qin Ge. "As long as you are willing to lend this venerable one a hand, I can promise you a position below only one but above ten thousand."

"Are you finished?" Qin Ge tilted his head, sizing up the Lord of the Nightmare Demons shrouded in black mist, and shook his head. "Just an Incarnation, and yet you dare to talk big when your true body doesn't even dare to enter!?"

He gave Dantai Qingyue a look.

Understanding his intent, Dantai Qingyue struck out with a sword.

The sword light was brilliant.

In an instant, the black mist dissipated into nothingness within the dazzling sword light.

Behind the Zerg Matriarch and the others, a pitch-black vortex channel appeared, swallowing the three God Realm experts along with Lin Yi.

From behind the vortex, a pair of crimson eyes stared fixedly at Qin Ge. "Is this your choice? This venerable one will remember it."

"Soon, you will regret today's ignorance!"

Boom—

As the pitch-black channel exploded, the Zerg Matriarch and the other God Realm experts vanished along with Lin Yi.

Only after confirming that the auras of the Lord of the Nightmare Demons and the other God Realm experts had left Blue Star did Dantai Qingyue look at Qin Ge and say worriedly, "Has this matter been blown too far out of proportion?"

"That Lin Yi isn't even a Demigod Realm. Killing him would have been easy, but now even the Lord of the Nightmare Demons has appeared."

"I'm afraid that from now on, killing Lin Yi will be as difficult as reaching the heavens."

Qin Ge shook his head. "Things are not as simple as you think."

If he had wanted to kill Lin Yi, he would have done so long ago; there was no need to keep wasting time.

But right now, his enemy wasn't the Lord of the Nightmare Demons, nor was it the Upper God Realm Expert of the Thunderwing Humanoid Clan.

It was the terrifying existence behind the scenes manipulating the entire Lingyun Game World.

At least for now, Qin Ge felt there was a high probability he couldn't defeat that mastermind.

How much of a reward could he get for killing a Lin Yi who wasn't even a Demigod Realm?

One must know, he had learned from the Zerg Matriarch that the Lord of the Nightmare Demons had damaged his true body while forcibly breaking through to the Upper God Realm during his recent seclusion.

The main reason he hadn't caused trouble during this time was that the current Lord of the Nightmare Demons couldn't exert his Peak combat power.

He sent Lin Yi over at this time...

...specifically to let the Lord of the Nightmare Demons occupy the nest.

After all, Lin Yi was a Child of Destiny; how could he be so easily subjected to Possession?

At the very least, Lin Yi's consciousness would coexist with the Lord of the Nightmare Demons. If he performed exceptionally, Lin Yi might even reverse-possess the Lord of the Nightmare Demons.

Not even a Demigod Realm, yet possessing an Upper God Realm?

It seemed impossible just thinking about it.

But Lin Yi was a damn Child of Destiny who didn't follow common sense or logic!

Without empowering the enemy, the tiny reward Lin Yi could bring right now wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between Qin Ge's teeth.

Furthermore, he currently didn't possess the means to manifest game cultivation into reality.

With the stubborn nature of a Child of Destiny, even if he tortured Lin Yi beyond recognition, he wouldn't be able to learn the method of manifesting game cultivation from him.

But through the mouth of the Zerg Matriarch, it would be different!

Dantai Qingyue pursed her moist lips, her beautiful eyes fixed on Qin Ge as she frowned. "I always feel like you're hiding something from me."

Logically speaking, their greatest enemy was none other than the Lord of the Nightmare Demons.

Yet just now, during his first encounter with the Lord of the Nightmare Demons, Qin Ge seemed solemn on the surface but didn't actually take him to heart at all.

Could it be that among the myriad races, there was a force even more terrifying than the camp gathered by the Lord of the Nightmare Demons?

How was that possible?

She had never heard of such a terrifying existence!

"Qingyue, don't worry about it."

"Just leave the worrying to me."

Qin Ge wrapped his arms around Dantai Qingyue's slender, jade-like waist and blew a breath of hot air into her ear. "Come, let's go inside. I have some 'intimate' words I want to discuss with you."

...

On the other side, inside the Demon Palace of the Lord of the Nightmare Demons, Lin Yi stared blankly at the palace filled with billowing black Qi, subconsciously swallowing hard.

He had survived?

He had survived at Qin Ge's hands?

Amidst his joy, he started to feel another headache coming on.

After all, he had never even heard of groups like the Zerg Matriarch or the Lord of the Nightmare Demons.

They say the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

But what benefits could he bring to the Lord of the Nightmare Demons?

Without providing benefits, could he, an outsider, truly survive among these terrifying beings?

Pfft!

The Zerg Matriarch, with her yellow-green skin and bloated belly, moved her many small legs beneath her massive abdomen to Lin Yi's side and spat a mouthful of dark green thick liquid onto his arm.

The moment the liquid touched Lin Yi's severed arm, it began to repair the limb at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Zerg Matriarch's massive pupils lowered as she stared at Lin Yi, sneering, "An ant who isn't even in the Demigod Realm actually dared to attempt an assassination on Qin Ge?"

"And you even managed to survive until we arrived?"

The Zerg Matriarch shouted angrily, playing the part of the accuser, "Speak! Are you a spy arranged by Qin Ge!? Did he send you to infiltrate us and scout for information about the Alliance?"

Following the Zerg Matriarch's angry shout, the Shadow Demon race God Realm expert and the Evil Eye Clan God Realm Expert both cast scrutinizing gazes over.

A terrifying pressure descended, making Lin Yi's bones creak and groan.

It felt as if he would be crushed into meat paste by the pressure in the next second.

"I'm innocent! I've been wronged!"

Lin Yi cried out in terror, recounting the entire Karma of his grudge with Qin Ge from start to finish.

He emphasized, "Qin Ge and I share an irreconcilable hatred!"

"I wish I could drink his blood and eat his flesh. How could I possibly be in league with him!?"
