The defensive line at the Imperial Border was deliberately sabotaged, creating an opening through which the pollutants sneaked into the territory.
If it was just such a breach, the pollutants would not be able to enter the border en masse in a short period of time.
Xue Yinzhou secretly discovered a lure device for the pollutants.
This device, within just a few days, had attracted numerous pollutant mutant species to invade the border, becoming the main culprit behind the turmoil among the populace.
Xue Yinzhou held the rhombus-shaped device in his hand and squinted his snake eyes, the silver-purple vertical pupils radiating a chilling aura.
Who did this?
A hostile neighboring country, the rebel army, or domestic traitors could all be the masterminds behind this incident.
But this device is peculiar, never heard of it, even unavailable in the black market; it’s unlikely something an ordinary person could produce.
There is still a small portion of the surveillance on the border defenses that hasn’t been completely destroyed.
After restoring the circuits, Xue Yinzhou investigated the surveillance content and discovered traces of spatial energy fluctuations.
It was Zaxxis’s doing.
Though the surveillance only flashed a few frames, having multiple life-and-death encounters with each other, Xue Yinzhou instantly recognized the shadow’s identity, his expression dangerous, emanating a chilling intent to kill!
In just a few minutes, hundreds of pollutants gathered outside the house, utterly blocking the way, frantically scratching at the windows and iron door, producing a nerve-grating sound.
"Bang!"
Xue Yinzhou clenched his palm vigorously, crushing the lure device, then stepped outside to take care of this group of pollutant mutant species.
In the following month or so, Xue Yinzhou repaired the border defenses and eradicated the pollution mutant species that crossed into the Imperial Border.
Under the tempering of relentless day-and-night battles, his strength surged, breaking through to the Tenth Rank!
Tenth Rank Beastman, mighty and invincible!
This marks the first Tenth Rank in several hundred years since the founding of the Night Glow Empire.
His silver snake form became more elongated and stout, the white scales shimmering with purplish-golden light under the moonlight, with a gold snake-pattern print appearing on his forehead, resembling a snake head ready to bite its tail and intertwining, forming an ouroboros-like mark, with a round object seemingly hidden in the snake’s mouth, emitting a chilling aura under the cold moonlight.
Xue Yinzhou’s aura underwent a monumental change, inducing a cold fear in anyone who beheld him; pollutants with lower intelligence dared not approach recklessly upon sight, shrieking as they fled outward.
It’s a creature’s absolute fear of death!
Xue Yinzhou returned to human form, with a tall and slender physique under the moonlight, like a meticulously carved jade sculpture, the entire person exuding a mysterious and powerful aura, akin to a blood-soaked phantom emerging.
Once the situation at the border was confirmed to be resolved, he initially planned to return to the Imperial City to report to Shen Tang, but for reasons unbeknownst even to himself, he altered his route, heading in another direction.
Throughout world history, only a few Tenth Rank Beastmen have ever appeared, considered to be invincible; Xue Yinzhou’s prowess surpassed Zaxxis’s, recalling past grievances, and it was time for revenge.
As for the traitor Shen Qingli, although Xue Yinzhou had previously wanted to act against her several times, due to Shen Tang’s orders, he had no choice but to let her off.
But facts proved that, as long as this female lived, there would be no peace.
Indeed, Xue Yinzhou even suspected Shen Qingli’s involvement in this incident, the lure device likely given to Zaxxis by her; otherwise, the rebel army, having such powerful equipment, would not have waited until now to use it.
Last time, Shen Tang and Xiao Jin compiled a map after infiltrating the rebel army’s stronghold, sharing it with all Beast Husbands.
Xue Yinzhou followed the path indicated on the map, headed for the rebel army’s stronghold.
A bloody purge was destined!
