Chapter 22 - The Great Demon King

The six of them followed the sound, and two more figures appeared behind Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang.

One of them had delicate features, fair skin, and elegant air about him.

The young lady beside him was dressed in purple. She was extremely beautiful, and her eyes were like the starry sky.

It looked like they had walked out of an ancient painting.

Lin Yu's eyes widened as he looked at Zhang Yuze and Gao Yang, as well as the miserable state of their pet beasts.

In his shock, he was silent for a moment.

"I'm sorry I'm late..." He apologized immediately.

Gao Yang's eyes widened as he asked excitedly, "You succeeded?"

Lin Yu nodded. "Thank you for your hard work. Everything went smoothly. Xiaozi also breaks into stage five."

Hearing Lin Yu's answer, the two of them were stunned.

Lin Yu touched his nose. He could understand.

Xiaozi's advancement was indeed a little faster.

Previously, she had just broken through to stage four. This time, she had already broken through to stage five. This speed was really too fast.

But Lin Yu had no choice. That mushroom offered too much and was worthy of a hundred-year-old item...

"Lin Yu, you have to be careful." Zhang Yuze realized that it was not the time to chat. "There are six of them, and their pet beasts are..."

Lin Yu waved his hand and interrupted him. He smiled and said, "Leave the rest to me."

He turned his head to look at the six people who had just regained their senses.

"A Beastmaster? Was that a pet beast? They really have accomplices."

"Hey, does this black sky have anything to do with you?" one of them couldn't help but ask.

"Are you kidding me?" Someone next to him immediately chimed in. "Is this something that can be done by human power?"

At the very least, it was impossible for junior Beastmasters and pet beasts at the origin birth realm to do so.

"You guess." Lin Yu's hands were behind his back as he floated forward like a ghost.

After Xiaozi had successfully completed devouring, he also received spiritual power feedback, and now he felt very light.

"Stop pretending." One of them gritted his teeth. "Moonrat, Moonlight Blade!"

On the small crescent moon in the sky, the yellow light gathered again.

"I won't let you guys go so smoothly this time..." Lin Yu said inwardly as he snapped his fingers with a smile on his face.

Xiaozi flew up and floated in the air with her wings spread open.

An intimidating aura was released.

"Another fifth-stage pet beast? When did fifth-stage pet beasts become commonplace?" The other side couldn't help but curse.

Xiaozi's fingers pressed in the air as if she was playing the zither.

The pitch-black sky rippled like a wave, devouring the holy crescent moon that was emitting a bright yellow light.

Not only that, but even the snowflakes that filled the sky had also disappeared.

The night swallowed the moon and the snow.

This strange scene caused the pupils of the six people to shrink to the size of a pinhole, and they all gasped.

At this time, no matter how stupid they were, they should have realized that this was Lin Yu's doing.

"Come on! We've already defeated two stage-five ones just now. What's there to be afraid of?" One of them cheered.

All at once, everyone was commanding their pet beasts to attack.

Lin Yu smiled as he looked at the six pet beasts that were coming at him.

"Shadowtouch."

A dark shadow emerged from under Xiaozi's feet, from midair to the ground, and then quickly expanded.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Smooth tentacles that seemed to be made of ink shot out from the black water.

All the pet beasts were suspended in the air.

"What kind of hell is this?" One of the people on the other side swallowed and shouted, "Pearl Otter, use Pearl Bomb!"

The Pearl Otter immediately gave up struggling. It raised its hands, and some pearl-like energy crystals appeared on them.

It made a shooting gesture, and the pearls in the sky poured down on Xiaozi like rain.

Xiaozi revealed a sneer and slowly landed.

The black water on the ground rippled, and more black tentacles that were thinner than before crawled out.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

As if they were accelerating, all the tentacles were waving consciously, surrounding and protecting Xiaozi.

All the pearls were smacked back, causing snow to fly around the six of them.

"A pearl the size of rice dares to compete with the bright moon? I'll start with you..." Lin Yu lazily pointed at the Pearl Otter.

"I'll show you what a real bomb is!" Lin Yu said inwardly.

Xiaozi understood her master's intention. She spread out her hands, and her back twisted.

Black, shiny grapes the size of a fist appeared, shining with a refreshing luster.

Corrosive Magic Grape!

Under her control, black meteors streaked across the sky and fell toward the enemy.

"Quickly dodge!" the six people on the opposite side shouted.

However, it was to no avail.

All the pet beasts under the control of the Shadowtouch could only watch as the devil grapes descended.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

It was the sound of the magic grapes hitting the pet beasts.

Black ripples spread out.

The Pearl Otter was the first to be hit, and three magic grapes hit it.

The surface of its body contracted and expanded repeatedly, and its fur flew in all directions.

In the end, it rolled its eyes and was blown away.

"It's better to use your pearls to make a pearl necklace..." Lin Yu licked his lips.

The Beastmaster was dumbfounded at this sight.

He felt insulted, but Lin Yu seemed to be telling the truth...

The other pet beasts were not any better. Each one of them was hit by a magic grape and was blown up.

However, they were temporarily free from the control of the tentacles.

"Dark Metal Poison Hook!"

"Flying Snow!"

"Moon-tearing Claw!"

...

One by one, the pet beasts stood up and charged again. However, they were soon in a daze.

"Where's the enemy?"

Xiaozi had already flown into the air. A black and purple energy ball was floating on the tip of her right finger, and a naughty smile appeared on her face.

Dark Bomb!

As the Dark Bomb spun, it kept expanding.

"Disappear, Saiyan... Ahem, you pet beasts!" Lin Yu coughed.

Xiaozi grabbed the Dark Bomb and pressed it down.

"Boom!"

A blackish-purple semi-circular energy fluctuation spread out on the ground.

It was like a deafening thunderclap, and the entire earth was shaking.

The pet beasts were all sent flying more than ten meters high as if they were fried food.

Everyone in the other party swallowed, and their eyelids were twitching.
