Chapter 0731: Want to Keep Me?

“Elder Del!” Bota turned to an old man with silver hair beside him.

This silver-haired old man was Del, an elder of the Lei Peng clan who always followed Bota’s lead.

“Yes, Great Elder Bota!” Del stepped forward respectfully.

“Take some men to that Silver Fox clan branch and wipe out everyone there!” Bota ordered.

After responding respectfully, Del left the hall. Nearby, the servant who had reported to Bota opened his mouth to mention leaving the Hongmeng Thunder Beast at that branch. He hadn’t informed Bota about this earlier, but considering Elder Del’s strength, he decided not to say anything.

After leaving the hall, Del randomly selected a few servants from the Lei Peng clan and headed toward the Silver Fox clan branch.

In Del’s view, going there in person to destroy that branch was a trivial task—no matter how many men he brought, it wouldn’t make a difference.

A few days later, Del arrived at the Silver Fox clan branch with those servants.

Standing in front of the building, which emitted a faint silver glow, Del mocked himself, “In a moment, this place will become ruins! What a pity!”

A servant from the Lei Peng clan behind him said obsequiously, “There’s nothing to pity. It’s an honor for the people of that branch to be reduced to ruins at Elder Del’s hands!”

Del laughed harshly, his voice shrill and unpleasant. “Well said! I like hearing that!” Then he laughed even more unrestrainedly.

“Which idiot is laughing outside?” At that moment, a calm voice came from inside the hall. It wasn’t loud, but it made Del and the others look grim.

Under their gaze, a burly middle-aged man slowly walked out of the hall, accompanied by five women from the Silver Fox clan.

This burly man was the Hongmeng Thunder Beast, who was guarding the branch.

Upon seeing the Hongmeng Thunder Beast, Del’s eyes narrowed as he suppressed his anger. He sensed a dangerous aura from it.

“A Supreme Divine Warrior?!” Del thought to himself. Only another Supreme Divine Warrior could put pressure on him.

However, while Del recognized the Hongmeng Thunder Beast as a Supreme Divine Warrior, the servants from the Lei Peng clan couldn’t tell. The servant who had flattered Del earlier, upon hearing the Hongmeng Thunder Beast’s words, immediately snapped, “Kid, you’re seeking death!” Then he flew at the Hongmeng Thunder Beast.

This servant was quite powerful, a dominant force among the strong, practicing the laws of water. With this strike, space howled as the power of the Water God was channeled, causing the air currents to condense into ink-like crystals that surged toward the Hongmeng Thunder Beast like an unstoppable force. This servant was so eager to act before the others that he naturally wanted to show off his strength and loyalty in front of their Elder Del. After all, such opportunities to impress the elders were rare. The Hongmeng Thunder Beast stood there, looking at the servant from the Thunder Roc clan rushing at it as if it were a little sheep charging forward. A little sheep?! The Hongmeng Thunder Beast raised its right hand, and in the horrified eyes of the servants from the Thunder Roc clan, it reached into the void, causing the overwhelming power of the Water God to collapse instantly. Then, it lifted the servant with one hand. Everything happened so fast that Del was too late to stop it. “You?!” Del’s expression changed, and his gaze turned cold as he said, “You must not be from the Silver Fox clan. I advise you to stay out of our Thunder Roc clan’s affairs and release this man!” Del naturally recognized the elder of the Silver Fox clan. Thinking of the five people who had traveled with Goddess Livia, he guessed that this burly middle-aged man must be one of them?! Hearing this, the Hongmeng Thunder Beast glanced at Del and sneered, “All idiots alike!” Then it turned to look at the terrified servant from the Thunder Roc clan in its hand and said, “Release him? Then I’ll release you now!” With that, it indeed threw the servant back. Del was stunned, not expecting the other party to actually release him?! But before he could react further, a terrifying golden-red lightning burst from within the servant’s body, instantly turning him into a charred corpse! When the servant crashed back beside Del, his corpse disintegrated. The space around them froze for a moment. Del looked at the servant from the Thunder Roc clan not far away, unable to process what had happened. Once he recovered, he turned to face the Hongmeng Thunder Beast’s mocking gaze, filled with rage. His face twisted in fury—this was the first time anyone had dared to kill a servant from his Thunder Roc clan right in front of him! It was also the first time someone had ignored the existence of the Thunder Roc clan and treated his words as nonsense! “You dare kill a servant from my Thunder Roc clan?!” Del said, each word strained between his teeth.

There are three thousand Hongmeng races, and the attendants within each race hold a high status within their own tribes, second only to the elders!
“Kill them if you want to! Can’t you see?!” The Hongmeng Thunder Beast’s voice was deep and indifferent. “What? Do you want to avenge your attendant?!” With that, it looked down at Del with a mocking gaze.
This enraged Del to the point of madness, especially the mocking look from the Hongmeng Thunder Beast, which made his blood surge rapidly. Yet, the beast’s strength forced him to suppress his anger.
The pressure emanating from the Hongmeng Thunder Beast made him realize it was at least as strong as him. Del took a deep breath and slowly said, “Let’s go!” Since things were no longer under his control, he had no choice but to retreat first.
After speaking, he waved his hand, ready to leave with the other attendants.
“Who said you can leave?!” Just as they were about to leave, the Hongmeng Thunder Beast’s voice rang out. In an instant, it appeared in front of them, blocking their path.
Seeing this, Del’s expression turned extremely ugly. Filled with rage, he laughed, “Though you’re stronger than me, you’re still just a Supreme God. Want to keep me? Hehe, ridiculous!”
The Hongmeng Thunder Beast sneered in response, “Whether it’s ridiculous or not, you’ll find out soon!” With that, it transformed back into its true form.
……
Meanwhile, the Yellow Dragon, who was traveling with Livia, received the jade talisman sent by the Hongmeng Thunder Beast. With a sweep of his divine sense, he understood what had happened. At the same time, Livia also received a message from the five women of the Silver Fox tribe.
