Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2227 - Number One Beauty of Ebonia

The stronger the nova wildbeasts were, the stronger the ebons would be. The underground world of Ebonia belonged to both of them. Thus, when an underground space like the Oldgod Domain was chosen as the location for the minor reges mundi ranking, many thought it would be a massive advantage for the ebons’ disciples.

“From the ebons’ perspective, their ideal world would be an Ebonia that only had them and the wildbeasts. That fundamental conflict is why the Infinitum Bodhimanda’s history is a history of conflict between the ebons and other races. That was true for the Lin Clan’s era of two reges mundi as well. That’s why Grandfather and the rest are so adamantly against Lin Jie’s group wanting to stand with our historical enemies, the ebons.”

Ebonia’s situation did have certain similarities to Orderia. The difference was that, in the Infinitum Bodhimanda, the victors of duels were kings. The emperor here wasn’t an ebon, but the legendary Yi Daiyan! “The situation here is like if the sun emperor was on the Myriad Solar Sects’ side back then. The celestial orderians alone wouldn’t be able to cut it.”

Thus, Tianming was sure that the waters here were deeper than he could imagine.

“Furthermore, Yi Daiyan and her luxdaemons are all migrants, and Ebonia’s sole totemancer race, which is why they’re rejected by everyone. Even though she’s a rex mundi, she doesn’t have any followers. All of the participating disciples here look down on luxdaemons.” It wouldn’t be wrong to say that people rejected luxdaemons even more than ebons. That was Tianming’s observation.

No one had said anything when the three thousand ebon disciples had descended and arrogantly cut to the front. However, when a hundred-odd luxdaemon youths appeared, he heard quite a bit of mockery coming not only from the Lin Clan, but many others as well.

“They only have a hundred people? Isn’t this the weakest regal clan in history?”

“Even the Lin Clan and their three hundred is enough to crush them.”

“And they were still shameless enough to arrive late.”

Tianming found the situation quite intriguing. Actually, the luxdaemons weren’t late—there were still two hours before the passage was opened. “Historically, the ebons have always had the advantage in conflicts with other powers. However, a middling luxdaemon race produced a rex mundi, yet they’re hated so much.” Didn’t that mean that despite their internal conflicts, Ebonia was still united in its rejection toward outsiders?

Tianming could hear the disdain from the other regal clan disciples. A mere hundred participants really was very few for the clan the current rex mundi was from. But the situation was too complex and there was too much information he lacked, so he couldn’t do any proper analysis. However, that didn’t stop him from looking a few more times, as he was curious about the luxdaemons.

“They really do all have white hair.” The luxdaemons members looked very distinctive. They all had white hair and, in contrast to the ebons, they were all tall with high levels of beauty. Looking around, Tianming saw that they were mostly standard handsome men and beauties with traditionally good looks. They also had long, pointed ears, which gave them a sense of aloofness.

The most special feature of the luxdaemons was their colorful eyes. Each eyeball looked like a rainbow pearl with brilliant colors and shining luster. It made the luxdaemons seem particularly pure and ethereal. With their soft, long, and glossy white hair, along with these colorful eyes.... Tianming could only describe this clan as very beautiful.

He couldn’t resist saying, “If all these youths are already so pretty, Yi Daiyan must be the most spectacularly beautiful person in their race. It’s kind of understandable that Lin Mu lost his mind over such a lady.” If she was really that beautiful, though, just that alone wouldn’t be enough to cause waves, even in this sixth-level nova source world. After all, for higher-level lifeforms, beauty wasn’t only what was on the outside. It also comprised many factors, like talent, power, and bloodline. For example, as Feiling returned to being the Lord of Perpetia, her beauty had transcended what it’d been back in the Vermilion Bird kingdom.

After meeting the ebons, the luxdaemons and Lin Clan geniuses looked much more ordinary.

“Will the rex mundi appear today?” Lin Lele muttered.

“Isn’t she the Lin Clan’s enemy? Why are you so excited to see her?”

“Sure, she’s an enemy. But she’s also Ebonia’s number-one beauty and the most miraculous and strongest legend. I want to see her in person!” Lin Lele said. When an enemy was so strong, the feelings directed toward them would change. Perhaps it was the same case for the feelings of many clans toward the ebons.

“Most beautiful? My Ling’er is the only one that deserves that title.” Tianming’s mouth twitched.

“I’ve seen your wife. She’s amazingly pretty, yes, but she still feels a bit immature compared to Yi Daiyan. There’s a certain flair of a rex mundi that can’t be imitated,” Lin Lele said.

“Heh.” Tianming was definitely curious now. Would she come? Two hours later, he got his answer.

She didn’t come. This event wasn’t worthy of her.

“Although she isn’t here, she’ll probably watch the fight. After all, there are luxdaemon disciples here… and you!” Lin Lele sniggered.

“What does it have to do with me?” Tianming asked.

“Why wouldn’t it? The rex mundi announced before that she’s married and her husband is the deceased Lin Mu. Although she’s only using him as a shield, it also shows she has some weird loyalty to him. And now an illegitimate son pops up and even has white hair. Isn’t it ripe for drama?” Lin Lele gossiped.

“Goddammit!” Still, Tianming wasn’t too worried. Although Li Muyang had told Tianming to be careful of Yi Daiyan, if he was still willing to send his son there, it meant he wasn’t worried Yi Daiyan would erase him for no rhyme or reason, as long as he was careful.

Otherwise, sending him to Ebonia would just be throwing his life away.
