Chapter 486 — The Most Miserable Demigod in History

The Beast-Taming Craftsman Page 5 of 5

Yun'an gradually came to, and the instant it woke, agonizing pain surged through its body. "ROAR!!!" It let out a heart-rending scream. It suddenly realized that its city-sized bulk had been dismantled and wrenched down to a mere ten-odd meters, its body pocked and cratered, its power feeble to the extreme. It was as if it had been stripped bare, bound helplessly by enormous technological chains one after another. Yun'an struggled with all its might, but its current strength would not permit it to break free. Shi Jin, the Martial Emperor, and the beasts one and all regarded the Yun'an before them. Shi Jin and the others were fine, but the Martial Emperor was utterly silent, feeling only that Yun'an was the most wretched demigod of all—his battle to slay the Manghu demigod back then had been harder fought than this. This time, viewing it from Yun'an's perspective, he felt Yun'an had been raided out of nowhere; the whole affair was thoroughly miserable. All thanks to Shi Jin.

"ROAR!!! (I, I surrender!!!)" At this point Yun'an had completely lost the domineering air it once had as king of the Yun race—and no wonder, for its formerly respectable will level had been purified by Susu down to the very bottom rung. Yun'an was now a complete weakling; whether it even had the courage to self-detonate was another question entirely. It stared at the Martial Emperor and Shi Jin in utter terror.

"I ask, you answer," Shi Qi said to Yun'an. "Were you sent to Blue Star by the Abyss race?" "You come from the starry sky, correct."

This was the question Shi Jin most wanted answered. Yunxuan's power and the power of the Abyssal Sea came from the same source—the Abyssal Sea's inheritance traced back to the Mythic Era, and that alone might be excused. But Yun'an had descended upon Blue Star ten thousand years ago, and it was hard not to suspect that it was an advance force dispatched to Blue Star ahead of time by the abyssal evil god race. Had the East not possessed a Martial Emperor then, and had Yun'an been left to develop unchecked, it would have been fully capable of building up a great power like the Abyssal Sea or the Shenyuan City. "Abyss race? No, never," Yun Kuang denied at once, begging for mercy, which made Shi Jin frown.

"I—I came here fleeing disaster."

"The planet I was on was invaded by the Cosmic Overlord Legion. I was still an egg at the time, cast out into the starry void to escape, and I drifted by accident to this planet." "I was wrong—it was Blue Star that took me in. Now I only want to be a good beast and protect Blue Star!"

Susu: Nn! (Hmph!)

The Martial Emperor and Shi Jin: Ha.

Shi Shuo was instantly dumbstruck. Holy crap—Yun'an had fled to Blue Star as a refugee, what the hell was that? And what the hell was a Cosmic Overlord?
