"I heard that a branch of the Xue Na family is located within Luoselite City. I'd like to ask City Lord Demir to dispatch the city lord's army to escort the clan members of the Xue Na family branch out of the city," Bert said directly.
The Xue Na family provoking the Four Divine Beast families was an unforgivable crime.
The annihilation of the Xue Na family was a certainty. The main branch had Mr. Mel, Mr. Spark, Koder, and Komo, the patriarchs and elders, so there would be no problem there.
As for the other elders, their task was to go their separate ways and exterminate the Xue Na family's bloodline in other parts of Red Maple Prefecture.
He was in charge of Luoselite City.
For him, being assigned here was quite fortunate. This Lewan, who had some Azure Dragon Clan bloodline, was somewhat related to the Four Divine Beast families. Using him, he quickly confirmed the whereabouts of the Xue Na family branch members.
Especially from Lewan's words, he learned that this branch seemed to be a very important one. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the qualifications to guard the Ice Snow Mountain.
Upon hearing Bert's words, Demir's brows furrowed. "Elder Bert, I'm afraid I cannot agree to this matter. As the City Lord of Luoselite City, I must abide by the rules of the Sovereign God. Even as City Lord, I cannot act recklessly."
The City Lord had the authority to expel or even kill those who violated the city's rules, but doing so without reason was not a good thing for them. Moreover, he didn't want any involvement with the Four Divine Beast families. Even if he could help, he wanted to avoid this trouble.
Bert showed no surprise at Demir's words and let out a disdainful laugh. "Very well, then I'll trouble the City Lord to inform the Xue Na family clan members that I, Bert, will be staying at the Ice Snow Mountain for three days. If no one appears after three days, I will level the entire snow mountain to the ground."
After speaking, Bert looked at the High God subordinates behind him. "Half of the men stay, and the other half will accompany me to the Ice Snow Mountain!"
Then, Bert looked at Lewan. "You stay too."
"Yes, sir."
Lewan dared not refuse. Although he feared Demir, since Bert had left nearly half of the High God powerhouses, he felt somewhat emboldened.
Afterward, Bert led the other group and flew out of the lake.
Seeing the High Gods scattered around the outskirts of Luoselite City, Demir's expression was unreadable.
"City Lord."
Lille spoke softly.
"Let's go, back to the city."
Demir's voice held some anger, but he didn't say much more.
"Sir, should I go and deal with this Bert?"
Kakqi said cautiously beside Lota.
He didn't say this because he wanted to help the Xue Na family. It was because Lota's next planned travel destination was this Ice Snow Mountain. It was said that the mountain was also a volcano, constantly in a state of ice and fire.
Therefore, Lota planned to explore it.
He hadn't even started his exploration yet, and Bert wanted to level the Ice Snow Mountain to the ground?
In Kakqi's opinion, Bert was provoking the Overlord. Even if Bert himself didn't know it, it didn't matter. There was never a saying in this world that ignorance was no excuse.
Lota's face showed no change in expression as he looked in the direction Bert and his group had flown away, lost in thought.
A moment later, Lota's voice was devoid of emotion. "Kill them."
Lota had killed countless lives on his journey from an ordinary person to an Overlord. It was only after he became a Sovereign God that he rarely took action. However, that didn't mean he had never acted.
It was just that most of the time, Morit acted on his behalf.
Although he had awakened the System and wanted to rely on "Linley" to obtain System rewards, it didn't mean he would do nothing.
He just wanted to do as he pleased.
If the matters between Leiding and the others didn't involve him, he wouldn't intervene to change anything, willing to wait for Linley to grow.
But if something truly involved him during this period, he wouldn't mind changing the future.
Just like he had Morit guide Leilin before.
To him, even if his actions caused "Linley" to be unable to be born, and the future "Earth Memory" to change, it wouldn't have much impact on him. After all, he stood at the pinnacle of this world and had his hometown in the Material Plane. Even if he didn't break through or transcend, it wouldn't matter.
Therefore, killing a Four Divine Beast family elder who might affect him was merely a matter of a word for Lota.
It wasn't that Lota looked down on Leiding and the other four. Their combined strength might be considerable, but the true Overlords in this world were still the eleven Sovereign Gods.
Only they could truly be called Overlords!
In Luoselite City, within the City Lord's Mansion.
"Bert."
Demir's eyes also held some anger. Although Bert's words were not coercive, anyone could see that Bert completely disregarded him, the City Lord.
"City Lord."
Lille, seeing Demir's displeased expression, spoke more cautiously. "What do we do next?"
Regarding the Four Divine Beast families targeting the Xue Na family, although some powerhouses had heard some rumors, it hadn't spread completely. Lille was only a Six-star Devil and naturally didn't know about this matter yet.
But even without knowing, he could tell from Bert's words that the Four Divine Beast families might be dealing with the Xue Na family.
To him, both sides were colossal entities.
Demir snorted and then said directly, "Go and tell Hilla what Bert said."
He paused, then continued, "Remember, do not involve Luoselite City in their affairs."
Although Demir had some dissatisfaction with Bert, he didn't dare to provoke the Four Divine Beast Family because of it. The power of the Four Divine Beast Family had been proven over countless years.
Even though he was the City Lord, if he truly angered the strong individuals of the Four Divine Beast Family, they would have countless ways to kill him.
He couldn't possibly go against the Four Divine Beast Family for the sake of Hilla and her ilk. The Xue Na Family could only blame themselves for provoking the Four Divine Beast Family.
Lille sighed inwardly upon hearing Demir's words but didn't say much. He simply acknowledged the order and then walked out of the City Lord's Mansion.
Ice Snow Mountain was also a very famous place in Red Maple Prefecture. Besides the special environment of perpetual ice and fire, the most important thing was...
A super strong individual who once shook Hell was born here: Xena!
Any Asura who ventured across planes would be famous, even gaining great renown in other planes.
It was precisely because Xena, a powerful Asura-level strong individual, was born here that the natives of Ice Snow Mountain were very proud. Many even claimed to have the bloodline of the Xue Na Family.
Even though Xena was no longer on Ice Snow Mountain, the place remained under the control of the Xue Na Family.
For countless years, no one had dared to fight or fly on Ice Snow Mountain.
Houses constructed from ice and snow were built on Ice Snow Mountain, resembling a small urban area.
However, this small city relied entirely on the strong individuals on Ice Snow Mountain for its existence and was not protected by the Sovereign God. Even if it were destroyed, no one would care.
Despite this, living here was safer than outside.
After all, no one dared to cause trouble here; even bandits would avoid the area of Ice Snow Mountain when they appeared.
Suddenly, a spiritual sense swept across Ice Snow Mountain. Many High Gods on Ice Snow Mountain became alert and began to investigate the situation.
Although spiritual senses occasionally swept by, this one lingered over Ice Snow Mountain, clearly not a casual scan.
"Who is it!"
A white-haired elder from Ice Snow Mountain immediately soared into the sky.
Following him, more than a dozen High God strong individuals also flew out from behind the elder.
However, the expressions of these dozen or so people quickly turned grim, because within their spiritual sense, hundreds of High God strong individuals were flying towards Ice Snow Mountain.
Even facing so many High Gods, they weren't worried. The other side had more people, but they didn't believe any High God would dare to cause trouble on Ice Snow Mountain. Even the City Lord of Luoselite City, a powerful Seven-star Devil strong individual, gave them face.
"It's just these few guys."
Bert didn't respond to the elder. After scanning Ice Snow Mountain with his spiritual sense, he couldn't help but frown. "It seems Lewan was right; most of the Xue Na Family members are living within Luoselite City."
"Elder, should we kill these guys first?"
A High God behind Bert spoke directly.
Bert looked at Ice Snow Mountain and chuckled, "No rush. Let's capture these guys first. If the people in Luoselite City don't come out, then we'll execute these people."
"Yes."
This High God dared not defy Bert's orders.
"If there's any resistance, just kill them," Bert added.
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, the High God immediately led the High Gods behind him to charge towards Ice Snow Mountain.
Seeing that these High Gods were not responding and were flying towards Ice Snow Mountain at an even faster speed, the dozen or so High Gods on Ice Snow Mountain immediately changed their expressions. The elder at the forefront directly transmitted his voice, "Who are you people? Do you know this is the Xue Na Family's territory!"
"Hahaha, the Xue Na Family?"
The leading High God burst into laughter, his tone filled with disdain. "We're looking for you! Attack, whoever dares to resist, kill without mercy!"
The others, receiving the High God's command, scattered around Ice Snow Mountain to capture other life forms residing there.
To them, annihilating the Xue Na Family wasn't just about killing their strong individuals, but about completely eradicating their bloodline. It didn't matter if there were other life forms among them who weren't part of the Xue Na Family.
The expressions of these dozen or so High Gods changed drastically. They wanted to resist but were completely outmatched.
The strongest among them was only a Five-star Fiend, yet each of the hundreds of High Gods who descended seemed to possess strength exceeding that of a Five-star Fiend.
This was an unimaginable situation for them.
What kind of immense power could gather hundreds of strong individuals exceeding the Five-star Fiend level?!
As for the other life forms on Ice Snow Mountain, under the divine domains of these High Gods, they couldn't even muster the will to resist.
Even some talented Mid Gods who could barely withstand the divine domains were easily captured or killed.
In just a moment, the entire Ice Snow Mountain was under the control of the High Gods brought by Bert. Not a single God-level being could escape. As for the Saint Domains on Ice Snow Mountain, they were all annihilated under the High Gods' unreserved domain abilities.
For Bert, the only trouble with this mission was how to kill the Xue Na Family members hiding in Luoselite City.
If they didn't appear even after he destroyed Ice Snow Mountain, he would have to challenge Demir for the City Lord's position. Once he replaced Demir as City Lord, he could easily deal with those hiding in the city.
However, this method seemed too time-consuming for him.
As Bert was contemplating, a red streak of light suddenly flashed across the sky at an extremely terrifying speed. Even Bert couldn't react in time.
By the time Bert reacted, the streak of light had already formed a figure in front of him.
The person who arrived was Kakqi's Life Divine Clone.
"Get out of Red Maple Prefecture and don't come back for a hundred thousand years!"
Kakqi didn't attack directly, but spoke coldly.
A hundred thousand years was enough time for an Overlord to travel the Ice Snow Mountain.
Although he believed killing Bert wouldn't be a problem, it would be less troublesome if the other party retreated voluntarily.
"Who are you?! How dare you interfere in the affairs of my Four Divine Beast Family?!"
Seeing Kakqi appear, Bert didn't reveal his identity and immediately spoke aggressively, his face showing anger. However, due to Kakqi's "terrifying" speed earlier, he didn't attack immediately.
Bert couldn't help but wonder, was this also a strong person from the Xue Na Family?
Seeing that Bert didn't retreat immediately, Kakqi said no more. A long whip appeared in his hand. "Since you won't leave, then die."
Before he became an Overlord's Emissary, he wouldn't have feared the Four Divine Beast Family, but he wouldn't have treated an Elder of the Four Divine Beast Family like this. But now, things were different.
Kakqi didn't hide his strength. As he swung his long whip, cracks actually appeared in space.
Then, Kakqi's long whip grew longer in the wind and swung towards Bert.
Bert instantly felt a powerful spatial binding force. With his current strength, he couldn't break free for a moment!
Bert hadn't expected Kakqi to attack so suddenly, especially when he felt the binding force around him. His expression changed drastically!
What powerful confinement force!
Shocked, Bert didn't dare to hesitate and directly activated the Sovereign Power within him!
