A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 606 Burial Place
The smug smile on Lin Xi's face vanished completely.

His face was grim as he stared intently at the figures outside the palace gate. How could this be?

He clearly saw them enter the palace with his own eyes, so why are they still standing outside unharmed?

Did they not even come in?
What was that that went in just now...?
Lin Xi never expected that the traps he had painstakingly set up would all fall on those advanced puppets who used illusions.

That's right, the real Shen Tang and her beastmen had long been hiding in the shadows, and all the accompanying beastmen had been taken into her spatial storage. What she put in were just high-level puppets she had meticulously crafted, all for the purpose of uncovering the truth of the whole affair.

Although she didn't know what secret Lin Xi was hiding, anyone with eyes could see that something was wrong with him.

At a time like this, only a fool would follow his lead! Wouldn't that be like jumping into a fire pit?
As expected, Lin Xi was indeed harboring malicious intentions!

Shen Tang stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure and spoke coldly, word by word, "The plan was indeed perfect, but unfortunately you were too impatient and exposed it."

"Your Majesty, what are you saying? I don't understand... There's probably a misunderstanding between us. Please let me explain, okay?" The young man with the snow deer put on that pitiful look again. He bit his lip lightly, his clear and gentle eyes filled with confusion, as he tried to approach her.

Xue Yinzhou, Xiao Jin, and Lu Xiao were already positioned like a shield in front of Shen Tang, watching him warily and coldly. If he dared to take another step forward, he would definitely die a horrible death!

Lin Xi was forced to stop. "Your Majesty, I..."

"Enough! How long are you going to keep up this act? Don't you find it ridiculous?" Shen Tang coldly curled her lips. "You've done all this just to gain my trust, to lure us here, and then to trap us in this pre-arranged cage, turning us into prey to be at your mercy. Isn't that what you wanted?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the palace is probably a ghost town now, filled with vengeful spirits! Just like that small town, why is there not a single living person? Because you killed everyone, making them all the lonely souls you sacrificed to create that monster!"

Shen Tang coldly looked at the mangled limbs left behind after the old emperor's death, and could still vaguely make out their twisted and terrifying appearance.

She clenched her fists tightly, her face filled with barely suppressed anger.

"You killed so many innocent people, not even sparing your own family... Lin Xi, you deserve to die!"

She recalled the moment she saved Lin Xi and felt both angry and ridiculous. She suspected that even that encounter was a carefully planned scheme by him to get close to her and gain her trust!

Even the unusual cold wave that has been ravaging the northern border for so long could very well have been caused by Lin Xi, with the aim of covering up the truth about the disappearance of people, or... hiding an even more terrifying intention!

After all, Lin Xi alone probably couldn't have stirred up such a big storm.

The young man from the snow deer listened quietly to everything, offering no further rebuttal. His gentle, watery eyes grew increasingly cold, as if covered by a blanket of frost.

After Shen Tang finished speaking, instead of becoming angry or embarrassed, he clapped lightly and laughed, "Your Majesty is truly clever. As expected of the person I admire and cherish, you have seen through my little schemes. It's truly embarrassing..."

Now that his plot had been exposed, he was too lazy to pretend anymore and simply admitted it frankly.

He sighed regretfully, "If only Your Majesty weren't the person they were looking for, but alas, there are no 'ifs' in life. Your Majesty is on their death list, so I have no choice but to kill you."

"Otherwise... I really want to spend the rest of my life with Your Majesty."

He looked at her with eyes full of adoration, a gaze that was both familiar and strange, making Shen Tang feel nauseous.

Her voice grew colder, “'Them'? You really are in cahoots with the aliens! Why would you do this, helping a foreign race to harm your own people?”

"Compatriots?" Lin Xi laughed maniacally, covering half her face, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body, and his figure rose and changed shape. "A bunch of lowly people from the lower realms, do they even deserve to be compared to me? They deserve to be sacrificed!"

The dark sky pressed down, and the raging blizzard howled like a vengeful ghost. The noble snow deer, pure white, stood on the glacier, its huge, imposing antlers, as if forged from ice and snow, translucent in color. So beautiful and sacred, yet it was surrounded by a violent and filthy aura!
Once her true form was revealed, Lin Xi's secrets, which she had tried to hide, were exposed.

Shen Tang immediately noticed the red, hand-shaped mark on his back. Just as they had guessed, Lin Xi was indeed a descendant of aliens!

The aliens showed no mercy to the orcs of the Beast World; they came solely to invade.

Judging from the tragic state of the old emperor after his death, I'm afraid the eldest and second princes that Lin Xi mentioned will not have a good ending either!

No wonder there has been almost no news from the Yongdong Empire in recent years; it seems that the empire fell earlier than they imagined.

This is probably the largest stronghold of the aliens!

"Alright, stop arguing. Why waste words with them? Just kill them already!" A middle-aged woman in a black robe walked out impatiently. She was Lin Xi's mother, the Empress of the Empire.

It was this mother and son who stirred up the storm, firmly grasped the Eternal Winter Empire, and turned the entire country into a graveyard on the ice plains!
"Yes, Mother." Lin Xi's voice became respectful.

Its silver deer-like eyes swept coldly over Shen Tang and the others, and it spoke in human language, "If this drags on any longer, the masters above will start to get anxious. Your Majesty should just obediently set off on your journey!"

He no longer suppressed his strength, and the pressure of the Yuan Beast level was released with a roar, causing countless ice blades to condense in the air and attack!

Lu Xiao instantly conjured a wind wall to block the attack, while Xiao Jin was enveloped in surging lightning, forming a protective barrier around his body. He forcefully pierced through the dense offensive and slammed a punch into the two of them!
Lin Xi sneered, but did not move.

A deafening rumble echoed from the ground, and a massive, twisted figure burst forth from the earth—the modified experimental subject.

The experimental subject was covered in hard scales, which actually blocked Xiao Jin's attack!
The oppressive aura it exuded was stronger than anything they had seen in the laboratory before, and its size was much larger and more imposing, like an unshakeable hill. After fusing with the blood of the vampires, these experimental subjects had reached the terrifying level of a Yuan Beast!
Lin Xi's smile grew even gentler. "Let my beloved elder brother keep you company and have some fun."

"Roar--!!"

The test subject's eyes were bloodshot, and it let out a deafening roar, making the surrounding space seem to tremble. It slammed its paw hard at Xiao Jin, instantly smashing him into the ground!

Xiao Jin felt as if all the bones in his body were being crushed, as if he were being pressed down by a mountain!

He gritted his teeth, and lightning suddenly gathered in the sky, striking the test subject like sharp blades!
"boom!"

The experimental subject let out a shrill scream and staggered back several steps.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xiao Jin broke free and threw another punch.

But this monster has amazing defense; even such strong lightning only caused superficial injuries!
When the experimental subject attacked again, Xiao Jin transformed into his black panther form and nimbly dodged the attack. His claws struck the mutated creature at an extremely fast speed, but only managed to cut through the surface defenses, leaving shallow wounds.

Since we can't inflict a major blow in one go, we'll win by sheer numbers.

If it doesn't work the first time, try it a hundred times, ten thousand times, a million times... He doesn't believe this thing will never collapse!
The battle between the two sides caused the heavens and earth to change color.

Lu Xiao wanted to step forward to help, but another experimental subject with an equally terrifying aura crawled out of the ground. It was the Second Prince, who was supposed to be stationed in the fiefdom.

The two sides clashed fiercely once again, and the terrifying energy explosion caused large sections of the surrounding mountains and ice fields to collapse, making the entire space seem about to shatter.

The ground tremors did not stop; instead, they became increasingly violent.

Countless powerful mutants crawled out from underground, forming an encirclement that completely surrounded Shen Tang and his group.

Today, no one can escape.

This is where they met their end!

Here's a follow-up update from last night.
