A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 597: Counterattack with an Army

Tian Lin slowly stood up, dusted off his sleeves, and swept his gaze across the entire room, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth. "Today is truly a good day... a good day to choose a new successor."

He said those words almost as if they were squeezed out from between his teeth, chilling and sinister.

But when his gaze fell on the three kings, he suddenly smiled and said, "The three kings are all gathered here, and the hall is full of guests. Everyone who is supposed to come has come, which saves me the trouble of inviting them one by one."

"If we defeat the three kings today, the entire Cloud Peak Empire will be unified once again! And I will be the rightful new emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

Everyone stared at Tian Lin as if he were a madman, and some even wondered if he had completely lost his mind.

The Azure Sky King roared, "You want to betray your country!"

Tian Lin looked at her coldly.

Once upon a time, the Azure Sky King was his most beloved mother.

But now...

He closed his eyes and let out a long sigh of frustration.

Twenty years of kinship and upbringing meant that even though the King of the Azure Sky was exceptionally strict with him, he couldn't deny that he genuinely cared for him. Even when his father beast committed a heinous crime, she still protected him.

But! He absolutely could not tolerate anyone standing above him and taking away everything that should belong to him!
Ambition took over, the last trace of warmth in his eyes vanished, replaced by a venomous glint, and he slowly spoke, "Mother, it's too late for you to say this. There's no turning back now."

"Today, you will also become a stepping stone on my path to the throne."

Anyone who blocks his path must die!

The Sky King seemed to sway, and his face turned deathly pale.

King Rift sneered from the side, "I never thought you'd end up like this, getting overthrown by your own son."

Tens of millions of soldiers surrounded Tian Lin, but he remained motionless. His aura suddenly changed, and his powerful supernatural abilities burst forth like sharp blades. Orcs who were nearby were instantly thrown away, spitting out blood.

The clothes ripped apart with a crack, and Tian Lin let out a sharp shriek, instantly transforming into his true form and soaring into the sky. His enormous dark golden wings were wrapped with strange black and red patterns, and his ferocity and killing intent surged forth.

The blood mist surrounding him pressed down like dark clouds, creating an extreme sense of oppression that shocked everyone in the audience.

Peak of the tenth rank!

Tian Lin, who was considered a cripple by everyone, not only recovered his strength but also awakened the bloodline of the Golden-feathered Roc, breaking through to the terrifying peak of the tenth rank in one fell swoop!

How can it be? ?
In the end what happened?
The Azure Sky Queen was filled with complex and indescribable emotions. She should have been happy at this moment, but the other party had come to rebel.

Someone shouted to dissuade him, "Since His Highness Tianlin has awakened his bloodline, the competition is meaningless. You can rightfully take over as the successor. Why bother with this unnecessary thing!"

The Azure Sky King, suppressing his grief, tried to awaken the last shred of his conscience, saying, "We were mother and son, and I am unwilling to fight you. As long as you stop, I will forgive and forget, and the throne will still be yours."

Tian Lin simply looked at them coldly, his condescending contempt as if he were looking at ants.

"Ha, what I want is not just a vassal king, but the entire Cloud Peak Empire, to bow down and submit to me!"

He was even willing to betray his mother for this.

He knew his mother, the queen, all too well.

She could kill his father, so she could certainly kill this rebellious son.

From the moment he took that step, he knew there was no turning back.

To become king, or to become a martyr!
not to mention……

He looked at his former relatives and friends, but there was no affection in his eyes, as if he were looking at a group of strangers. "I already know my background, and I am not one of you at all."

"I will join them, and you will only be stepping stones for me."

No one present understood what he was saying.

Tian Lin merely sneered, "Indeed, a dying man doesn't need to know too much."

The crowd was furious. What kind of nonsense was this? What did they take them for?

Even if he awakens his bloodline and breaks through to the peak of the tenth rank, so what? With the three kings still alive, and thousands of brave and skilled winged warriors, does he really think he can overthrow the empire by himself? That's utterly delusional!

This competition, which was aborted midway, instantly turned into a battlefield for suppressing the rebels.

The three kings attacked simultaneously.

Suppressing her heartache, the Azure Sky Queen's eyes hardened with icy battle intent. Tian Lin was no longer her son, but her enemy! She would no longer hold back!
Tian Lin was young and had limited troops, so he should have been unable to withstand the combined forces of the three kings. However, for some reason, the strength of his soldiers had also greatly improved, and they were able to fight the elite troops of the three kings to a standstill for a time.

Lu Xiao wanted to step forward to help, but Shen Tang stopped him, saying, "Wait, I don't think things are that simple."

Shen Tang frowned as she stared at the sudden outbreak of battle.

She had anticipated that Tian Lin would not stay still, but she did not expect him to rebel so quickly. She also did not expect that he would fully recover from his injuries and break through to a higher realm. It would not be an exaggeration to call him a chosen one.

But is it really that simple?

Shen Tang stared blankly at the blood-red markings on Tian Lin's body, her fists clenching tightly as her face turned pale.

Having had contact with Necro, she knew all too well that this was clearly the power of the vampires!

Now that Necro is dead, the vampires are exterminated, and the treasure vault has been stolen... it's obvious who was behind all of this.

It was those aliens.

Others might not understand, but she understood it all.

Tianlin secretly colluded with aliens and obtained a potion they developed using vampire power. This not only restored his body and awakened his bloodline, but also allowed him to cultivate an invincible elite force.

In the past, the alien potions were not yet perfect and could only be considered semi-finished products.

Now, the potion developed by pure-blooded vampires is even more powerful, capable of turning a cripple who has lost all his superpowers into a top-tier powerhouse in the beast world. This is terrifying!

A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through Shen Tang's mind.

They can cultivate one strong person, and they can cultivate a second, a third... or even more!
Moreover, the power of pure-blooded vampires is mysterious and powerful, far beyond imagination. Could they cultivate strong individuals who surpass the tenth rank and reach an even higher "Primal Beast Rank"?
A chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and Shen Tang's blood almost froze. Although the previous agents posed a threat, they were not enough to cause despair, because their numbers were limited and their strength seemed to be restricted to within the tenth rank.

Now she and her beastmen are stronger and no longer fear the agents; all they need to do is completely eliminate them.

But at this moment, Shen Tang suddenly felt fear—the agent hiding behind the scenes was likely already at the tenth level, reaching the unparalleled Yuan Beast level!

They absolutely have the ability!
Tian Lin dared to openly rebel against the Three Kings, so he must have more than just this much strength; he must have other plans.

Never act rashly!
Lu Xiao had obviously thought of this as well, his expression turned serious, and he slowly sat back down.

Lure the enemy deep into our territory, then trap them like turtles in a jar.

Now is not the time for him to make a move.

On the battlefield, Tianlin and his subordinates fought tenaciously, but they were no match for the three kings. They quickly showed signs of weakness and retreated in defeat.

Just when everyone thought the battle would end quickly.

A sudden change occurred!

The second prince and the third princess, who should have been in the trial grounds, suddenly appeared and were locked in a huge transparent "bottle," with only a few traitorous winged beastmen holding them tightly with their claws above them.

The Azure Sky King roared and flapped its wings to rush forward, trying to save the two children.

But the next second, an invisible net descended upon her, trapping her within it.

Despite being at the peak of the tenth rank, her sharp blade couldn't even break through this net!

Almost simultaneously, the other two kings and several high-ranking generals were also trapped in the same invisible net, an energy barrier condensing and sealing them all inside.

Three peak-level tenth-tier Feather Kings are trapped at the same time!

The army was instantly leaderless and dared not launch another attack.

The scene instantly descended into chaos, with everyone at a loss for what to do.

Just then, in a corner where no one was paying attention, Shen Tang moved.

Her figure vanished instantly, reappearing beside the Third Princess and taking her hand.

The next second, the two of them disappeared together.

When they reappeared, they had returned to a safe zone heavily guarded by troops.

Before anyone could react, she appeared beside the second prince as if he were alone, and took him away in the same manner. She then rescued the third prince and other trapped generals.

The barrier that trapped the three kings was no match for her!
The crowd snapped out of their shock, their faces filled with disbelief.

How did she suddenly appear? Spatial abilities?

No, there were space-type beastmen on site, but no one could move freely anywhere like her.

Moreover, how could she come and go freely when even the Three Kings at the peak of the tenth rank couldn't break through the energy barrier?
Even the usually arrogant King of Rift looked at Shen Tang with surprise after being rescued, his heart filled with turmoil.

The energy barrier created by the aliens is indeed difficult to break through. Shen Tang has suffered several times before. Even for a Yuan Beast level beastman, it is extremely difficult to break through it immediately!
But! Since the system upgrade, she has been able to ignore this barrier.

This world.

Nothing can hold her back right now!
"You bitch!" Enraged that his plan had been exposed, Tian Lin charged at her, his claws wrapped in wind blades that seemed capable of tearing through rocks as he thrust them straight at her.

The audience gasped, as if they could already foresee the gruesome death of the female.

Even if she has special abilities to pass through barriers, so what? Tian Lin is at the peak of the tenth rank, one of the top combatants in the world. How could she possibly stop him?
If the foreign emperor were to die here, relations between the two countries would inevitably deteriorate rapidly, and might even trigger a war.

A sinister, almost human-like smile spread across Tian Lin's hawk-like face. "Die!"

Even the Azure Sky King, who wanted to rush to the rescue, was a step too late.

Lu Xiao, who should have been the most anxious, remained calm and even had a faint smile on his lips.

Just as the female master broke through to the Yuan Beast level, she hadn't yet had a chance to show off her skills.

Let this younger brother be the whetstone for the female master.

What happened next surprised everyone: Tian Lin's attack suddenly stopped half a meter away from her.

It was as if we were being blocked by an invisible wall.

The slender, tall figure behind the wall remained motionless, not even flinching, so calm and collected, as if she didn't take him seriously at all!
Enraged by her attitude, Tianlin let out a sharp cry, gathering even greater power, and the sturdy barrier shattered in response.

But the moment the barrier shattered, it transformed into thousands of sharp blades, which then stabbed at him!

"what--!"

"boom!"

Tian Lin only had time to let out a scream before countless sharp blades slashed across his body, ripping his feathers and leaving his flesh covered in blood. He was thrown hundreds of meters by the force and crashed heavily into the mountain rocks, where the falling rubble buried him.

Shen Tang didn't even move a hand from beginning to end; he just stared indifferently at his defeated opponent.

"The victor is king, the loser is villain; you've lost."

The entire hall was deathly silent, as if in a dream!
Tian Lin... a peak tenth-tier expert, was defeated by Shen Tang just like that?
Just how terrifying is her strength?!

The battle was swift, fierce, and exhilarating. The crowd below the stage went from shock to admiration. King Liekong's gaze was fixed on Shen Tang, and even his usually icy face could not hide his shock, his heart filled with turmoil.

King Rift had heard of Shen Tang's name, but he didn't pay much attention to him and even looked down on the young monarch. He was also too lazy to join the alliance.

But she never expected that Shen Tang was so strong.

She is definitely above the three kings!

Could she be the legendary—

Elemental Beast Rank!
