Chapter 561 - 561: Filth

Lynx glared at Lucifer, rubbing his chin. He still didn't believe that these people were simply there to see the summoning. 

However, if that was the case, it didn't matter. What he was really here for was to talk to Lucifer and get him to leave, but the appearance of others made that difficult, especially since they were supporting Lucifer, who himself was plenty strong. 

He had seen Lucifer in action, and that guy was certainly as strong as a High Beast. He didn't know what was going to be the outcome of his last attack, but he had faith that he would have won against Lucifer. Still, that didn't mean he was weak. 

"Fine. I'll allow them to stay with Gon, but one of my men will also stay with them. And when they see the summoning, they must leave the city. This outsider actually fought me."

" I can't allow him to stay in the city! Think of it as my mercy that I'm allowing him to stay here for a few more days."

Lynx walked inside the house, leaving Lucifer behind. Lucifer also followed him to see if Gon was fine. 

As he entered the room, he found Salazar standing in the middle of the room. He had a sharp sword in his hand, which was covered in blood. The blood was dripping from his blood, still fresh. 

Near his feet, a body was lying, cut in two halves. 

Seeing the body, Lynx's lips opened slightly. The one who had died was none other than Ro, who was sent here to take Gon.

Even though Ro wasn't as strong as him but for him to die so fast? That didn't make sense. Just what had happened here?

He glared at Salazar. "You killed him? That's enough of your playing around! I don't care who comes to stop me! I will kill you two today!"

Lynx jumped forward, getting back to his Thunder Lion form. 

"Is that so?" Salazar muttered, slowing down time. Even Lynx was caught in time, moving extremely slowly. He didn't realize. For him, he was running at his ordinary speed. 

Lucifer was left out of the domain since he was standing in the back, but he realized what was happening as he saw Lynx's slow speed. 

"I've had enough playing around as well. Feeling weak and useless in battles all this time, but not anymore. I don't care who you are anymore; I won't step back!"

Salazar jumped towards Lynx, holding the sharp sword firmly. He lowered his sword, thrusting it inside the back of the Thunder Lion.

"Argh." Even though he stabbed the sword, he felt a current pass through the sword into his body. Fortunately, because of the slowed time, it was also not that extreme yet. Before it could get far, he pulled out the sword and jumped back.

"Argh!" Lynx groaned in pain as his back started bleeding. 

"Die!" He roared. A wave of lightning energy came out of his body, flying in all directions. 

Salazar ran outside, taking Lucifer with him to avoid the energy wave. 

Boom~

The house exploded into smithereens. Its pieces flew far and wide. 

Fortunately, Lucifer and Salazar were already outside now. 

"W-what happened suddenly?" Deon exclaimed, seeing the house explode. 

"He attacked us after I got inside," Lucifer openly lied as he looked at the Golden Rhino with an amused smile on his face. "Looks like your friend doesn't respect your words. So much for the leader of this part of the town."

Lynx stepped out of the lightning storm that followed him, looking as threatening as before. 

"Lynx! What are you doing! Are you ignoring my decision!" Deon roared, glaring at Lynx. 

"To hell with your commands! Today I shall kill this bastard! If you want to fight me to death for a stranger, then so be it! But just remember, it won't end well for you either!" Lynx raged as well. 

He had already compromised in the past to let Lucifer go free, but after his trusted man was killed, he lost his mind in anger.

"See? It looks like I overestimated the Golden Rhino clan. When people don't even listen to them in their own area, just how weak they must be," Lucifer mockingly stated. "Don't worry though. You can hide behind me! I'll protect you!"

"Y-you!" Deon's face turned red. He didn't know why Lynx was behaving like this, but he knew it was about his self-respect. He couldn't let it go. Even if it was bad to start a battle between two High Beast clans, it was the need of the hour. 

"Lynx! If I had done the same in your part of the town, you would've done the same and stopped me! I will do the same. Treat this as my last warning to you! If you don't stop now, you shall understand the true meaning of wrath!" Deon warned one last time. 

Lynx didn't listen and jumped towards Lucifer. 

"That's it! You're dead!" Deon also turned to his Golden Rhino form as he ran towards the Lynx. 

Lucifer remained in the back, smirking. This was perfect. The one clan that didn't want him to stay here was going against another Clan that wasn't close to him. Meanwhile, the Snow Wolf Clan and the Phoenix Clan stayed back. 

However, even Hun wanted to get in the battle. He believed Lynx had gone crazy. He took a step forward, only to be stopped by Lucifer. 

"Stay out of it."

The Thunder Lion started clashing with the Golden Rhino. Since the two were High Beasts with immense strength, their clash continued for quite some time. 

The lightning of Lynx wasn't able to penetrate the golden defense of Deon. Similarly, because of the slow speed and not as high of an offensive power, Deon wasn't able to gravely wound the Thunder Lion either.

"I knew you Golden Rhinos were bastards too! Even after what he did, you will support him! Today I shall clean this city of all the filth!" the Thunder Lion roared, calling forth the Thunder Sun again. 

"The only filth I see here is you!" Deon raged, roaring wildly. A Golden Sun appeared in the sky right beside the Thunder Sun, hitting it before it could fall. 

Boom~

Another massive explosion took place in the sky, unlike nothing before. It was as if two powerful missiles had clashed with each other 

Even though the explosion took place in the sky, the destruction spread far and wide. 

Just the powerful wind coming from the explosion itself was enough to destroy many houses, let alone the explosive power of the explosion, the fire, the golden wave, and the lightning that spread far and wide.
