Chapter 516: 517: Fleeing Lovers (4th Issue)

Lin Zhen was also filled with a murderous rage, having taken down two Star System Level 3 soldiers with his consecutive shots. Just as he prepared to charge and kill the Scorpion Commander, even risking injury, Feng Qingluan arrived.

Her body emitted a faint fragrance, the scent of a phoenix. Back then, Lin Zhen had felt it more than once from Little Phoenix, and today, he felt it again, causing the boiling blood in his heart to cool down a bit.

“Lin Zhen, we can’t keep fighting! We have to break through and leave this place!”

A soft hand grabbed Lin Zhen’s and quickly flew outward.

Lin Zhen then realized that the only ones still fighting were just the two of them.

That’s right, of the over 20,000 Fire Kirin warriors, only the two of them were still fighting at this time.

It was clearly recorded on the kill list in the Dimensional Universe that there were currently only 504 people still alive.

Among them, 500 were Feng Qingluan’s Qing Luan Society female warriors. They had withdrawn at the beginning of the battle, and the Insect Clan’s target was not them, so they were able to leave safely.

The remaining four people were Lin Zhen, Feng Qingluan, Ye Hua, and Tianci.

Nan Lie was already dead. All the people Lin Zhen had met on Suspended Island were dead without exception!

On the kill list, Feng Qingluan ranked first, followed by Ye Hua in second place, and Tianci in third place. Although Lin Zhen had initially killed very few, he had not been idle in the past few months. With Nan Lie’s death in battle, his current ranking was fourth, and the gap between him, Ye Hua, and Tianci was not significant.

The fifth-ranked one was actually Lan Yuer of the Qing Luan Society. She had not killed many Insect Clan members but had still secured the fifth rank, which showed the severity of this battle.

Especially when Lin Zhen saw that the Mantis Commander and the others had come over, he knew that there must have been a problem. Ye Hua and the others might have escaped, otherwise, if they were still alive, how could their opponents come here?

No matter how strong he and Feng Qingluan were, they could not possibly be an opponent for the Endless Insect Clan army. The only option left was to flee!

“Run!”

Feng Qingluan pulled Lin Zhen along at full speed, her large cleaver forming layers of blade mountains. Within a radius of a hundred meters, blades were everywhere, and whoever dared to block their path or approach them would be cut in half by her!

The Mantis Commander and the others followed in the air, constantly exerting pressure on Feng Qingluan and Lin Zhen.

“Hehe~! Little beauty Qingluan, there’s no need for you to struggle! There are only two of you left in the entire Fire Kirin warrior group, and there are my Insect Clan troops everywhere. Where can the two of you escape?”

Without turning her head, Feng Qingluan coldly threw a sentence: “Less talk, if you guys aren’t convinced, feel free to come down and fight!”

“Hehe! Of course, we will fight, but not here. In bed, I wouldn’t stop even after fighting for three hundred years. Here… let my soldiers wear down your and that brat’s bravery first!”

The Mantis Commander and the others were not eager to fight Lin Zhen and Feng Qingluan immediately. They knew the danger of these two people very well. If they went down recklessly now, they might not only be unable to kill, but they might also be killed by the desperate struggle of the two trapped beasts.

They were in no hurry, showing a demeanor of having everything under control, and followed in the sky.

Feng Qingluan and Lin Zhen had already left the ground and rushed straight into the starry sky. However, within a radius of hundreds of meters, thousands of meters, and tens of thousands of meters, the surroundings were still densely packed with Insect Clans. They surrounded, chased, and blocked them. Feng Qingluan took on most of the pressure in the front, while Lin Zhen took care of the back and eliminated any approaching enemies with a single shot.

Watching the beautiful girl in front gritting her teeth and desperately fighting, an emotion that Lin Zhen had not felt for a long time welled up in his heart.

This was Qing Luan, the number one beauty among the Fire Kirin Empire’s countless people.

She was also the leader of a gang, a female devil who never blinked when killing or chopping people.

Because of this, Lin Zhen once had some aversion to Feng Qingluan, thinking that as a woman, her actions were a bit too much.

But now that he thought about it, as a woman who could rise in the underworld, she must have endured much more, which was even more difficult than men. If she hadn’t acted like that, she might have been gnawed away by others long ago, leaving nothing but bones.

This was also Little Phoenix, the proud, cold, yet warm and lovely little divine bird.

She was inseparably connected to him through blood, his little treasure!

Although Lin Zhen also thought that the nickname “little treasure” seemed a bit inappropriate for a decisively fierce female like Feng Qingluan, he had gotten used to it after spending months together.

He had only felt this way before with An Ning and Yue’er, and now there was her.

Blood was floating in the air, mutilated limbs and severed arms were chaotically swaying in front of him, and the light of swords and blades passed by him. Such a scene was enough to make many men break down, but Qing Luan was used to it and did not care at all.

Her hand kept waving, and in just a short while, the huge cleaver had killed at least over 100,000 Insect Clan members!

At this point, Lin Zhen felt that Qing Luan was already very tired!

“Feng Qingluan! You’ve been arrogant for long enough, just surrender!”

The Locust Commander descended from the sky and bravely charged at them under the cover of more than a dozen Star System Stage Insect Clan members.

Feng Qingluan’s long saber danced frantically, and amidst the continuous collisions, the Star System Stage soldiers fell one after another.

However, the Locust Commander’s single slash grazed her shoulder, causing her to let out a muffled groan.

This slash was not particularly heavy, but it was skillfully executed, making it impossible for Feng Qingluan to continue exerting force with her right hand and preventing her from wielding her giant long saber.

Feng Qingluan could have used her left hand to wield the saber, but she didn’t let go. Instead, she continued to hold Lin Zhen’s hand, unwilling to let go.

Lin Zhen could no longer bear it and reached out, wrapping his arm around Feng Qingluan’s delicate and thin waist.

“Qing Luan, are you crazy? Get on my back, and I’ll carry you the rest of the way!”

Feng Qingluan’s body went limp intermittently. She didn’t remember how many Insect Clan members she had killed, but she was indeed tired and needed to rest.

Lin Zhen’s broad back was the perfect support for her.

A lithe body lay on Lin Zhen’s back, snow-white cheeks resting on his shoulder, long hair draping over his chest like a waterfall. Lin Zhen glanced slightly to the side, and he could see her dazzling eyes that resembled the starry sky and the blood-red mole between her brows.

“You don’t have to move anymore; I’ll carry you the rest of the way.”

As his main body carried her and his clone covered their retreat, Lin Zhen’s main body and clone both underwent armorization!

After armorization, Lin Zhen’s Black Hole Beast bloodline became more distinct, making his body even more majestic and imposing, contrasting the fragile woman behind him.

Seeing the Locust Marshal charging again, Lin Zhen flicked his Yin-Yang Spear and executed the Phantom God Strike!

This was a relentless strike, as Lin Zhen had no way to retreat. No matter who stood in his way, he would crush them!

The Locust Marshal, who had achieved Star System Level 5 strength, couldn’t withstand Lin Zhen’s strike and had his shoulder pierced through!

Crying bitterly to retreat, Lin Zhen deployed his gravitational force and violently pulled the Locust Marshal back!

Three consecutive space slashes disrupted his balance, and Lin Zhen pierced the spear into his back!

“Puff~!”

An Insect Clan member of Star System Level 2 sacrificed himself to take Lin Zhen’s strike, allowing the Locust Marshal to nearly escape.

But he still couldn’t escape. As he crossed paths with Lin Zhen’s main body, Feng Qingluan, on Lin Zhen’s back, swung her left hand and killed the Locust Marshal with a single slash!

Seeing Lin Zhen and Feng Qingluan eliminate the Locust Marshal, the Mantis Commander’s face in the sky turned incredibly grim.

“Dammit! Defying my orders and provoking a fight will only lead to death. You two, don’t rush recklessly. Killing these two is only a matter of time; we shouldn’t suffer unnecessary losses or injuries!”

Scorpion Commander and Beetle Marshal nodded in agreement, as the three great marshals continued to follow from a distance.

“Lin Zhen, do you think I’m amazing?”

Feng Qingluan had exhausted her strength, her body shaking violently, but she still looked at Lin Zhen with a bright smile. Her starry eyes seemed to want a glimpse of Lin Zhen’s heart and forever keep him in her memories.

Lin Zhen’s heart throbbed, forcing a smile: “Of course you’re amazing, Qing Luan. You’re the gang leader, the most formidable woman.”

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~!!!”

Several Insect Clan members appeared on the path before them, and Lin Zhen’s spear flashed like lightning, showing no mercy and striking them down.

A few Insect Clan members followed, and his clone took a few hits during the battle but didn’t care, dealing with the pursuers.

“Ah~~!!”

Feng Qingluan’s groan reached Lin Zhen’s ears, causing his heart to tighten.

“Qing Luan, are you injured?”

Seeing Feng Qingluan’s face turning increasingly pale, Lin Zhen knew something was wrong.

A hand gently supported her curved buttocks, and he could feel the blood flowing down her back.

But at that moment, there was no way to treat her injuries.

Feng Qingluan shook her head weakly, resting her head on Lin Zhen’s cheek: “Lin Zhen, we can’t escape, can we?”

“No! We’ll make it, for sure. This is not our last stop.”

“But I might not make it. Today might be my last stop.”

“No! It won’t be. Qing Luan, hang in there. I’ll take you to the waste disposal site; do you remember that asteroid? The asteroid we discovered cold stones on. I planted a Wutong Tree there for you. You’re a Phoenix, and as long as you reach that tree, you’ll receive excellent treatment! Just hold on!”

“A Wutong Tree!”

Feng Qingluan’s dim eyes suddenly brightened, staring at Lin Zhen’s side profile: “I want to see it. Will you take me there?”

“Yes! We’re going right now!”

Ahead, countless Insect Clan warriors formed a dense insect sea, blocking their path under the marshals’ coordination.

Lin Zhen clenched his teeth, and with a thought, his cloned self charged out.

“Roar~~!!!”

The clone twisted in the air and transformed into a giant Fire Kirin, launching its most potent ability at the endless insect sea ahead.

Innate Devouring!

Lin Zhen’s strength had reached the Peak of Level Nine Constant Star, his clone’s realm comparable to the Star System Stage. None below his realm, or even equal to him, could avoid this move!

In one Innate Devouring, the insect sea instantly cleared a large area!

Tens of thousands of Insect Clan members were wiped out, and unable to avoid attacks while using Innate Devouring, the clone suffered countless blows, becoming heavily injured and being directly withdrawn into Dark Star Space by Lin Zhen.

Seizing the vacuum created by his clone’s sacrifice, Lin Zhen accelerated with Feng Qingluan, charging forward!

Behind them, endless Insect Clan members pursued while the lovers clung to each other up front, running towards the endless starry sky, as if wanting to keep going until the end of time!
