Chapter 920: Was There A Feud Between Them?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The fire clones struck the level-5 cosmic system state insectoid’s sh.e.l.l.
Even without the spirit force barrier, its sh.e.l.l was very st.u.r.dy.
The fire clones charged and self-destructed. Only then did the cracks slowly begin to manifest.
When all fifteen fire clones had self-destructed, that sh.e.l.l crumbled. Green fluid gushed out from the cracks.
At this moment, Lin Ling went to the insectoid’s broken leg. Her spear struck the sh.e.l.l with shard winds.
‘Crack….’
The spirit force spear penetrated the insectoid’s body as violent winds and spirit force exploded inside the insect.
‘Rumble!’
The power tore apart the insectoid’s organs. Only then did it recover from its paralyzed state.
“Hssss!”
The insectoid wanted to counterattack, but its chi became extremely weak after taking such a heavy blow.
Lin Ling’s spirit force surged as Demonic Flames burned from her spear.
The demonic flames exploded inside the insectoid’s body.
The power within crippled it once again.
The insectoid twitched and then died on the spot.
Lin Ling breathed out. Her face was pale.
It was a level-5 cosmic system state after all. It wasn’t easy to kill it despite knowing its weakness.
In order to kill this insectoid, she had used all her power.
The end result was not bad. She was pleased with it.
Even without Ze, they could accomplish a feat.
Liu Zhiyun looked at the body with bewilderment.
‘Did they… really kill it?’
These three little girls were only peak star states, but they killed a level-5 cosmic system state insectoid together?!
That pink-haired girl helped as well, but she was only a level-1 cosmic system state herself.
‘What kind of monsters are these people?!’
They were too terrifying.
Even the prodigies of the Elf Race weren’t this absurd.
Lin Ling, Lu Li, and Alice went to where Qiuyue Hesha was. Their faces were pale.
They used up a lot of energy to kill that level-5 cosmic system state insectoid.
Qiuyue Hesha helped the three a little bit and kept supporting Nangong Jing.
She looked at the three girls. “Rest for a while. We can only stall this insectoid right now.”
Lin Ling noticed that Nangong Jing’s and Qiuyue Hesha’s chi became weaker while the insectoid’s chi remained consistently powerful.
“How long can you stall it?”
Qiuyue Hesha replied firmly, “Until Little brother Lu Ze finishes his cultivation!”
The other three nodded firmly.
“We’ll rest for a moment and help you out soon.”
Liu Zhiyun looked at the battle between Nangong Jing, Qiuyue Hesha, and the insectoid.
Just the shockwaves alone gave him gooseb.u.mps.
Why did things become like this?
He finally reached the cosmic system state and returned. Yet, he couldn’t even help this time.
After some silence, Liu Zhiyun remembered there was still an insectoid tide.
‘Yes, if he couldn’t help here, he should go there!’
‘Great!’
Liu Zhiyun went to where the girls were and smiled. “Um, little girls, I can’t help much here, so I’ll leave and help guard the planet Shenwu instead.”
The girls nodded.
Lin Ling said, “Go, we’ll handle things here.”
They didn’t comment on it, but there was indeed nothing Liu Zhiyun could help with here.
Liu Zhiyun nodded and took off with his fiery wings.
…
Outside planet Shenwu, the battle raged on.
The star states fought further away while the planetary states and below insectoids charged at the planet’s defense line.
Explosions and clashes happened everywhere.
Blood dripped.
The s.p.a.ce became distorted.
The spirit force cannons from the planet shot out terrifying spirit force rays.
The battle was very intense.
Zhihuang Guild adventurers were among the partic.i.p.ants in the battle.
The two vice leaders were all high-level star states.
The five senior captains each had star state power.
The medium and minor captains were planetary states.
The ordinary members were mortal evolution states.
This overall line-up was much stronger than the other adventure guilds in the void s.p.a.ce.
Of course, the situation outside the Milky Way was completely different. The risk was much higher.
At this point, a flame shot across the s.p.a.ce and went to the star state battlefield.
The red flames swept the entire battlefield.
All the star state insectoids were turned to dust before they could struggle.
The difference between an ordinary peak star state and a level-1 cosmic system state was worlds apart.
The human star states looked at the direction of the flame.
“A cosmic system state?”
“Who is it?”
“Guild Leader? He’s back!”
Liu Zhiyun walked out from the fire waves. His handsome face had a smile.
He said nothing, but he felt validated after seeing the shocked expressions on those star states’ faces.
He was completely beaten to the ground in front of those monsters earlier.
Now, he found his confidence again.
He remembered that he was also a cosmic system state!
The black-haired woman asked, “Guild Leader, why did you come back? Where are those cosmic system state insectoids?”
Liu Zhiyun: “…”
‘Out of all the possible questions, why did she ask this?’
Liu Zhiyun faked a cough. “There is only one remaining cosmic system state insectoid…”
“What? Only one left!”
The star states smiled.
The gray-haired man beamed. “You must have helped a lot, Guild Leader!”
The other guild members felt proud.
Their guild leader was a cosmic system state.
Liu Zhiyun’s mouth twitched.
‘Is there a feud between him and his vice guild leaders?’
‘Did they need to pour salt on his wound?’
Liu Zhiyun laughed dryly. “Don’t get too excited. That remaining cosmic system state insectoid’s cultivation is at level-7 cosmic system state. I’m no match for it. I can’t help, so I can only return here.”
Liu Zhiyun didn’t plan to hide anything. The people would know the truth sooner or later.
Everyone’s smile stiffened.
Zuoqiu Xunshuang exclaimed, “A level-7 cosmic system state?”
It was her daughter and those girls fighting the monster right now. She became worried.
When Liu Zhiyun saw Zuoqiu Xunshuang, he was taken aback. He looked at her in disbelief. “You are the little girl’s… Zuoqiu? You’re a peak star state already?”
Zuoqiu Xunshuang laughed. Lu Ze gave her a share of the red orbs, so she progressed fast as well.
In just seven months, she reached the peak of the star state.
However, her foundation wasn’t as stable as Jing Jing’s and the other girls’. She needed a few months before she could reach the cosmic system state.
She had a great son-in-law!
