The strange human with the writhing arm took a step forward and lashed out with his writhing right arm. The tentacles that the arm was composed off grew longer as he lashed out, his right arm acting like a whip as it swung sideways at Tian Zheng. Fang Ying kicked off the branch she was crouching on just as the man swung out his arm, moving so fast that she turned into a blur and appeared atTian Zheng"s side in the blink of an eye. Her red-veined sword appeared in her grasp and swung down at the incoming arm, a red mist sp.a.w.ning in the air around the blade.The sword and the arm collided, the red mist turning into six rice-sized droplets that shot at the arm, two of them piercing cleanly through it while the other four only managed to dig slightly into it. Fang Ying exerted all her might and smashed the arm down into the ground so hard that the earth cracked. She then grabbed onto Tian Zheng"s shoulder and jumped back, putting some distance between him and the strange man. Tian Zheng pointed at the strange man the moment they landed again, warning Fang Ying.
"Junior Sister, thank you for saving me, but we cannot let that man leave here! He is a Void Born, they feed on all types of energy, if he is left alone he could easily end up turning several planets into bony wastelands!"
Li Yang and Zhao Feng jumped down from their hiding place atop the tree while Tian Zheng was warning Fang Ying. Li Yang felt like letting out a sigh at how rapidly Fang Ying had jumped in to save Tian Zheng, but as he knew that this was simply how she was he could only accept it. Fang Ying looked at the two of them as she landed, pushing Tian Zheng back a few steps while giving a light nod of her head.
"Alright, but we"ll be the ones to deal with him. In your current state, you are more likely to be a hindrance than any help."
Tian Zheng wasn"t surprised at seeing Li Yang, but his eyes opened wide when he saw Zhao Feng. As the future patriarch of the Tian clan, how could he not be familiar with the various high-ranking people of the other organizations?
"You... Silver Dragon Prince?"
Zhao Feng turned his head slightly to look at the surprised and confused Tian Zheng. He gave a casual shrug of his shoulders before turning his head back, not going into any details as he spoke.
"Name"s actually Zhao Feng. Now"s not the time for details, just know that these two a.s.sholes are dear friends of mine."

Zhao Feng seemed to suddenly think of something when he turned his head away from Tian Zheng, suddenly turning his head back once more, looking at Fang Ying this time. He smirked slightly and pat Li Yang on the shoulder, both of them ducking under a swipe from the Void Born as Zhao Feng started talking.
"Now that I think about it, you"ve already gotten to hog him for a while, don"t you think it"s about time you share him with the rest of us? You just leave this freakish thing to the two of us, I"ll leave taking care of Tian Zheng to you."
Li Yang raised his arm to file a complaint at how he was spoken about like an item, but he quickly lowered it again when he realized that complaining was pointless. Fang Ying let out a light laugh, gesturing towards Li Yang with her hand.
"Alright, he"s all yours for now. But do remember that I want him back spotless, otherwise I"ll hunt you down for compensation."
Li Yang quietly rolled his eyes as he was lent to someone else, inwardly sighing to himself and wishing that there was at least one person here on his side. Zhao Feng nodded his head with a loud laugh, heavily patting Li Yang on the back as the two of them jumped over another sweep by the Void Born.
"You heard the wifey, you"re mine for now! So let"s go a bit wild here, let me show you that it ain"t just you that"s improved!"
The air beneath the two of them suddenly turned stagnant, giving them a place to temporarily stand. Zhao Feng shot forward almost immediately, moving faster than even Li Yang could by using his law of lightning. The Void Born punched out with his seemingly normal arm, but even it extended as he punched out, something that looked like black worms crawling beneath his skin.
Zhao Feng looked at the incoming fist with a faint smirk, the index finger on his left hand flicking slightly. As his finger flicked, the fist coming for his head suddenly changed direction, the entire arm seemingly breaking as it was forcibly bent to the other side, away from his head. Zhao Feng ran right past the bent arm and reach the Void Born"s front, both arms stretching out and grabbing onto the tattered Tian clan robes that he was wearing.
Zhao Feng"s muscles bulged slightly as he exerted his might and spun around, throwing the Void Born over his shoulder and launching him directly at Li Yang. Li Yang clicked his tongue slightly but still did his part in the battle, his golden sword appearing in his grasp.
He first cut off the extended arm that had just been sweeping underneath them, a golden flame sp.a.w.ning from the cut and starting to quickly eat away at the arm. The Void Born was able to quickly adapt to any energy it came in contact with, something they had already learned while examining the slime earlier. But compared to the crimson flames he used against the slime back then, the Void Born was clearly having a harder time adapting to the golden flames, the entire arm quickly swallowed and turned to ash.
Li Yang quickly changed the direction of his slash after severing the arm, his sword turning upwards and leaving a trail of icy mist in its wake as it cut through the torso of the Void Born. Li Yang utilized the speed of his law of lightning after he cut through the Void Born, his sword turning into a golden blur as it cut through the Void Born time and time again, splitting him into several smaller pieces.
All the pieces were then frozen solid by the ice that was coursing through the sword, the frozen pieces falling to the ground. Li Yang didn"t feel that it was enough with just this so he snapped his fingers and created a small golden sun in front of him, the sun splitting up into several smaller orbs of fire that swallowed the frozen pieces, turning them all to ash. In less than three seconds, the entire Void Born had been cut into small pieces and then turned to ash. Li Yang looked at the ash that was blowing away in the wind, glancing at Zhao Feng.
"Think that did the tri..."
A glooping sound caught his attention and interrupted him before he got to finish his sentence, Li Yang turning his head and looking at a spot a few tens of meters ahead of Zhao Feng. A drop of pale white slime on the ground was wriggling intensely, the land in a ten-meter radius around it dying in less than a second. The slime rose up after the land around it died, once again forming the now nude Void Born, whose hair had now turned golden while his eyes had turned silver. Li Yang clicked his tongue once again, muttering quietly while walking to Zhao Feng"s side.
"Figures that it wouldn"t be that easy. Well, guess we gotta manhandle him for a bit to discover the limits of his regeneration."
