Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 882 A Chance To Live In Vain

The Commander of the Zhan kingdom watched the monster in front of him with tense eyes. Elder Guo too stood with him, not wanting to make a move until the commander did. The commander was stronger than him, and if even he was waiting, then his running might only spoil things.

Lin Wu on the other hand, was watching them with an entertained look on his face. Of course, to the humans, it was no less than horrifying.

"Oh? So the language hasn't changed, it seems. Good! That'll make things easier." Lin Wu continued his act.

p ~gulp~

The commander swallowed his saliva, trying to build of some courage to speak once more.

"W-what reward are you offering us?" The commander inquired, his legs shaking like no tomorrow.

"Ah! A cooperative human, right from the start! This is rare. The last time I tried to talk, the humans simply attacked or ran away." Lin Wu spoke. "Pity they only listened after I ate three kingdoms~" he added.

Elder Guo clenched his hands under his sleeves and tried his best to not make a reaction on his face. He could clearly tell that the monster in front of him wasn't lying or joking. It had truly done that!

The commander kept his earlier expression and waited for Lin Wu to finish his words.

"The reward, yes… you two can get a reward. I offer you two… the chance to live." Lin Wu stated.

The eyes of both men widened at this.

This was quite literally the thing that they were desiring the most right now.

"J-just like that?" Elder Guo spoke for the first time.

"Of course not." Lin Wu said, making the two men flinch. "There is a condition, of course."

"A-and what's that?" The commander asked.

"You two will bring me to your kingdom. Or whatever power you belong to." Lin Wu replied.

"Might I ask why?" The commander asked carefully, watching Lin Wu's every move.

He knew that this was a risky question, but it was one he needed to know.

"Well you see… after being sealed down there for over a hundred thousand years, I'm rather famished. While I'd go and find something to eat anyway, I'd much rather be guided to a feast." Lin Wu explained, only inciting a greater terror in the two men.

"You want to eat our people?" The commander asked, his expression turning serious.

"What else do you think I'd do?" Lin Wu replied.

"There are beasts in the forest and a lot of others things to eat. Why do you want to eat humans?" The commander questioned, knowing that there was no turning back after this.

"Oh? I never said that I wasn't going to eat them. All the beasts plants and more, from this point to wherever your people are merely part of the meal. A multi-course meal… Yes, that's what you humans call it." Lin Wu answered the worst way he could for the two men.

The commander gritted his teeth and lightly moved his hand.

"RUN ELDER GUO! I'LL HOLD IT BACK! INFORM THE KINGDOMS!" The commander yelled while slapping away elder Guo with a skill.

<strong>~BOOM~</strong>

A large palm imprint condensed in the air, that sent Elder Guo flying at great speed. Though the man was also injured in it, which was not really that could be cared for right now.

"Tch~ Not obedient anymore… ~Sigh~ A hunt would be a good way to start the meal I suppose." Lin Wu said as he opened his mouth wide.

Tens of tentacles grew out from it, all targeting the commander of the Zhan kingdom.

~SHUA~ SHUA~ SHUA~

'SO FAST!' The commander could barely track the movement of the tentacles that were coming towards him.

He used every ounce of his power to dodge the incoming tentacle, and still got nicked in several places by the sharp teeth that were on each individual tentacle.

"Futile effort. You should just walk into my mouth and make things easier for yourself, you know?" Lin Wu spoke in a casual tone.

The tentacles continued to chase the commander around, not letting him go past a certain radius.

"I won't let you harm our people! The Long clan will not let you do that!" The commander shouted.

"The Long clan? HAHAHA! So those snakes built a nest on this world, too?" Lin Wu laughed out loud before slowing his attacks and glaring at the commander. "You know, back when I was last awake, the main branch of the Long clan in the Immortal Realm had to tremble before me!" He said, much to the man's shock.

While he could understand the words that Lin Wu was speaking, they were simply too shocking.

'The monster said it was awake over a hundred thousand years ago… the Long clan didn't even exist back then. But it still knows… and Immortal realm? It's not from here?' There were hundreds of questions appearing in the commander's mind, but none of them were to be answered today.

~SLICK~

A moment's lapse was all that was needed for the commander to make a mistake.

~COUGH!~

The commander spat out a mouthful of blood and watched the long tentacle that was poking out of his stomach. He could feel his strength being drained by the second and darkness creeping about his vision.

"Please… warn… them… Elder… Guo…" The commander said with difficult before gazing at Lin Wu.

~HUU~

Talking a deep breath that only made him bleed more, the commander let out a loud yell.

"I won't let you do as you please! DIE!" The commander said as he detonated his Dao Shell as well as his Nascent soul.

A great energy wave spread from his as his body broke down rapidly from the overwhelming energy.

~GULP~

But before the explosion could happen, a vast abyss consumed him in entirety.

"Mmm… Spicy~" This was of course, none other than Lin Wu's mouth swallowing the commander as well as the entire explosion whole.

Having done this, Lin Wu looked around for a few seconds before disappearing back down.

But all this had not gone unnoticed. Standing a few kilometers away, a group of people were left utterly terrified.
