CH 47

Right now, Hoover’s eyes were wide open.

He could tell that Lin Lei didn’t want to kill him.

Because there was no deep feud between the two of them at all. Malina and the others, the people who had provoked Lin Lei, had all been killed already.

But now, because of Lin Leis locking technique, Hoover wasn’t even able to open his mouth.

In this moment of desperation, Hoover could only keep his eyes wide open, hoping that Lin Lei would understand what he meant.

He had surrendered!

He was done!

As long as you let me live, anything was fine!

But right now, Lin Lei didn’t understand what Hoover meant.

“Do you hate me that much? Is that why your eyes are so wide open?”

Lin Lei frowned.

To be honest, Lin Lei had no intention of killing Hoover.

Although Lin Lei didn’t mind killing one more, Hoover hadn’t participated in the hunting competition that had just attacked Alice.

There was indeed no deep feud between the two of them.

In the end, Hoover had merely acted arrogantly in front of Lin Lei. Lin Lei didn’t want to kill someone innocent just because.

But now, seeing how much Hoover hated him, it was obvious that he was extremely unconvinced.

Lin Lei did not want to keep an enemy who hated him this deeply alive in this world.

“You really are making things difficult for me.”

Lin Lei shook his head helplessly. He had already killed quite a few people today, and now, he didn’t mind adding Hoover to the list.

With that in mind, Lin Lei stomped down viciously in Hoover’s direction once more.

Bang!

Seeing the enormous foot coming towards him, Hoover’s heart was on the verge of collapse!

How was he about to die? He had yet to use all of the life-saving techniques his clan had taught him!

But right now, no matter how hard Hoover urged the mageforce in his body, he was unable to break free from the binding of the locking spell.

Seeing that terrifying foot charge towards him, Hoover’s heart couldn’t help but fill with despair!

Boom!

The eldest son of the Duke of Rose, the supreme genius Hoover, one in a thousand.

Today, he had died!

Even his soul had been destroyed by Lin Lei’s terrifying foot.

Everyone in the northernmost region, upon seeing this scene, was stunned.

The eldest son of the Rose Duke, Hoover, had actually been trampled to death by Lin Lei with a single kick!?

This was too exaggerated!

Countless people looked at each other. They could all sense the mocking look in each other’s eyes.

Hoover should be the first person in the history of the empire to be trampled to death by someone, as the eldest son of a noble Magus clan.

They had thought that when Lin Lei and Hoover met, a world-shaking battle would break out. They hadn’t imagined that this would be the case.

But right now, everyone was thinking about something. Hoover was the true successor to the patriarch of the Rose clan.

He was different from the ruthless kids like Malina. He was one who’d be in charge of the Rose clan and future Duke!

If Lin Lei had only killed Malina and his group, perhaps because of Lin Lei’s power as a half-step sage, these members of the noble Magus clan would have considered the bigger picture. They didn’t want to get too tangled up with Lin Lei.

But after killing Hoover, things were different!

The Rose clan had spent countless amounts of blood, sweat, and money to nurture a supreme genius!

If he was killed by Lin Lei just like that, it would probably be impossible for the Rose clan to swallow this humiliation!

If they didn’t wipe Lin Lei out of the empire, then wouldn’t the Rose clan, which had existed for tens of thousands of years, become the world’s laughingstock?

It must be understood that the minimum requirement for a Magus clan to become a Magus clan was to have a sage-level expert!

And right at this moment, Lin Lei slowly closed his eyes.

Following Hoover’s death, the final barrier leading to the sage-level was shattered.

It had been three years since he had transmigrated!

Lin Lei was finally about to break through to the sage level!

The heavens and earth suddenly darkened. Within Lin Lei’s body, the boundless mageforce was like a dam that had been released, surging wildly.

The aura within his body continued to rise, and in the end, it reached its limit!

But this wasn’t the end. After reaching the limit of his mageforce, the entire mageforce circuit began to change.

A higher level of insight slowly appeared!

Lin Lei stood there in the center of the world.

In this moment, he was the center of this world!

“From today onwards.”

“I am the sage.”

Lin Lei said slowly.

In the next moment, the world began to tremble.

The surrounding earth began to crack, and the skies began to fill with countless ancient, cryptic words.

Right now, it was as though they were celebrating Lin Lei’s achievement as a sage!

An indomitable aura of sharpness suddenly exploded forth from Lin Lei’s body, sweeping through the entire northernmost region!

Astral energy spread out in all directions, and in the sky, the illusory image of a dragon appeared.

Everyone stared in shock at this scene.

At this moment, all of the loose cultivators who trained in sword techniques, the longswords at their waists or at their backs, suddenly began to emit a buzzing sound.

It was as though they were bowing in Lin Lei’s direction.

The sovereign of the sword had been born!

Countless people, upon seeing this, were incomparably shocked, and they cried out,

“That elite actually broke through to the sage level!”

“In our Belagaroa Empire, we’re going to have another sage level elite!”

“A sage level elite is someone who can establish his own Magus clan. Even the imperial family will give him the title of nobility he wants!”

“Now that this mysterious elite has advanced to the sage-level, the Rose family had only lost a candidate. Who cares if he dies! I’m afraid the Rose family won’t even dare to say a thing!”

An intense light rose from the horizon, dyeing the entire sky a brilliant golden color.

It was as if everyone was in heaven.

The powerful mageforce in the world gathered and finally condensed into raindrops!

The raindrops fell. The originally barren land of the far north was now being transformed into a fertile land!

Countless natural treasures were slowly growing in the soil.

The pure mageforce condensed into raindrops and fell on the bodies of countless freelance martial artists. They instantly began to help them recover from their injuries and slowly increased their strength.

“I, Spencer Wilbur, thank you, Lord Sage, for your gift!”

An old man that was covered in wounds and had been on the verge of death was healed by the mageforce raindrops, and had in fact recovered once more.

He couldn’t help but feel incomparably shocked. He prostrated himself respectfully on the ground, then called out to Lin Lei in the sky.

As though he had become a flock of sheep, the countless loose cultivators behind him all knelt down in the direction of Lin Lei, shouting loudly.

“I, Spencer Wilbur, thank you, Lord Sage, for your gift!”

“I, Alec Angelo, thank you, Lord Sage, for your gift!”

“I, Priestley Leonard, thank you, Lord Sage, for your gift!”

For a moment, praises for Lin Lei rang out through the heavens!
