Chapter 566: 567: Avenger

Ever since the six Evil Stars fell on the White Magnolia, Ye Hua seemed like an ant on a hot frying pan.

Now he was certain of one thing: he was definitely no match for Lin Zhen.

Moreover, Lin Zhen was ruthless and didn’t seem to be afraid of offending anyone. Unlike what Tianci thought, Ye Hua didn’t feel at ease just because he was the son of a World King.

Instead, he felt that Lin Zhen would not care about the title of the Mechanical World King and give him any face, and perhaps the next moment, Lin Zhen would suddenly come to kill him.

“No! I can’t just sit here and wait for death. I need to find a safe place, at least where Lin Zhen would not dare to act rashly.”

Such a place was not hard to find – he could go to Tianci. There, Lord Tianfang would be present, and Lin Zhen would definitely not dare to barge in.

*********

On a planet of the Mingyue Empire, where Luo Gou lived alone.

The sky was filled with dark clouds, as lightning and thunder roared.

Golden snakes weaved through the clouds, and the rolling dark clouds formed a huge funnel-shaped vortex.

Lying on a rocking chair, Luo Gou closed his eyes, and the vortex formed by the clouds spun around him as the core.

Boom!

A rolling thunder sounded in the sky, and Luo Gou slowly opened his eyes.

Countless lightning bolts descended from the sky and bombarded his body, wrapping him in a layer of electric light.

It seemed that his Star Power was surging, and the heaven and earth trembled as if he was about to break through.

“Six Evil Stars, return my soul!”

Suddenly, Luo Gou raised his hands high, and a mysterious blue star shone in the sky, with six relatively smaller stars slowly revolving around it.

These seven stars were the seven Evil Stars.

Luo Gou took out a white scroll and swiftly unfurled it towards the sky.

The seven Evil Stars seemed to be attracted by the scroll. They rotated in the air for a while and then embedded themselves onto the star map one after another.

A ladle-shaped star map appeared.

“Hahaha…hahaha…hahaha~!!”

Luo Gou laughed loudly, “It’s finally done. My six brothers, if you were not dead, this Beidou Evil Star Map would never have succeeded.”

“With this map, my Lifebound Evil Star can transform into the Dark Star. As long as I refine this map, I won’t have to suppress my Star Power anymore and can break through to become a Domain King.”

“For so many years, I have been waiting for this star map. Now I finally have this opportunity. I should thank Lin Zhen, who killed you, so that I could obtain the star map successfully.”

“It is said that when the seven Evil Stars light up one by one, they will greatly enhance the strength of the Martial Artists. By then, I will no longer need to look at anyone’s face. I will definitely become the strongest Domain King, and even the strongest World King in the future!”

Luo Gou laughed for a while, then put away the star map.

“But before that, I have to get rid of Lin Zhen. Because without killing him to avenge you, it’s really hard to control the evil energy of the six Evil Stars. Dispersing your resentment and evil energy will make my breakthrough smoother.”

With his mouth open wide, Luo Gou sucked in all the dark clouds and thunder in the sky into his abdomen. Suddenly, the sky on the entire planet was clear and bright, as if the doomsday scene had never happened before.

Luo Gou activated the Dimensional Universe. If he wanted to find Lin Zhen, he had to go to the Fire Kirin Empire first and find Lord Tianfang there. He was the only person Luo Gou knew in the Fire Kirin Empire, whom he had met when he had frozen Lin Zhen’s account in the arena.

After talking with Lord Tianfang, he enthusiastically welcomed Luo Gou’s arrival. As for Luo Gou, Lord Tianfang knew him too well.

Because when Lord Tianfang was still in the Star System Stage, he had witnessed Luo Gou’s skills. Back then, he was not even a match for one of Luo Gou’s hands, and he knew that Luo Gou could have advanced to the Domain King long ago, but he had been suppressing his breakthrough for thousands of years. Once Luo Gou broke through, as a second-level Domain King, Lord Tianfang wouldn’t have the confidence to face him.

Therefore, in front of Luo Gou, Lord Tianfang did not dare to be arrogant and warmly invited Luo Gou to come, promising to find out Lin Zhen’s whereabouts.

After disconnecting the Dimensional Universe communication, a dark spaceship appeared above Luo Gou’s head. He teleported in, and the spaceship left the Mingyue Empire, heading straight for the Fire Kirin.

*********

Lin Zhen’s spaceship slowly flew out of the wormhole and arrived near the Kirin Holy Star.

The spaceship stayed there for a while, and Lin Zhen finally resisted the urge to go to the Chaotic Star River immediately.

He always had a thought in his heart that after truly reviving Little Phoenix, if she asked what happened to the people who had harmed her, he would be speechless.

So far, there were only two people Lin Zhen was determined to kill: Tianci and Ye Hua.

Lin Zhen was not a fool, and he could easily deduce those two were involved in many incidents related to him, especially the plot against Little Phoenix. Lin Zhen would never let them go.

The spaceship landed on the Kirin Holy Star, and Lin Zhen’s first target was the Mixed World King’s mansion. Now that the Mixed World King was not there, it was the perfect time to get rid of Ye Hua.

But when Lin Zhen arrived here, he found only a few servants. After using Soul Lock to ask one of them, he learned that Ye Hua had packed up some things and left yesterday to look for Tianci.

Lin Zhen knew he had arrived too late. Ye Hua had a keen sense of danger and had left home to find Tianci after seeing the six evil stars in trouble. With Lord Tianfang there, Lin Zhen would definitely not get a good outcome if he went to their house rashly.

Lin Zhen knew the stakes. He had to seek revenge on Tianci and Ye Hua while also guarding against them coming after him. After all, Tianci’s father was a World King, and Luo Gou must be difficult to deal with too, since Ji Du praised him so highly.

“First, I need to temporarily close the Dimensional Universe system, leaving no trace for anyone to find me.”

Lin Zhen had already communicated with his family, warning them to be careful.

“Chris, shut down the Dimensional Universe communication system.”

After Chris complied, the Dimensional Universe system was shut down, making it impossible for anyone to locate Lin Zhen through it.

Lin Zhen also shut down the communication system of his Permanent Crystal Battleship, effectively disappearing from the world.

Having disconnected communication with everyone, Lin Zhen quietly went to the mountain peak near Lord Tianfang’s villa to check on their defenses.

The place was heavily guarded, with strict security checks including scanning, searching, and Star Power detection.

Moreover, there was an energy shield covering the entire mountain peak, making it impossible to teleport in.

“Infiltrating this place won’t be easy.”

After assessing the situation, Lin Zhen knew it would be difficult to get in.

Some guards even mentioned that they were on high alert during this special period, in case Lin Zhen tried to sneak in.

After checking the place out, Lin Zhen left the mountain peak area. He wouldn’t be deterred by this small difficulty. He had to enter Lord Tianfang’s residence, but he needed to come up with a good plan.

********

At Lord Tianfang’s residence, Ye Hua and Tianci lived together.

Ye Hua had been there for five days and finally let his guard down.

“I’m finally safe, Tianci, my dear brother. As long as Lin Zhen isn’t dead, I’ll stay here with you. You mustn’t find me annoying.”

Tianci would never dare to snub Ye Hua. He laughed and said, “How could I? You can stay as long as you like. I’m more than happy to be in the company of a national idol.”

“National idol, my ass! It’s useless! If Lin Zhen comes to kill me, who can protect me? In critical moments, I can’t rely on anyone but my fists.”

Ye Hua sat up, glanced at the roof and asked, “Tianci, where do you think Lin Zhen will go after returning from the White Magnolia? ”

Tianci shrugged, “How should I know? One possibility is that he comes to kill us; the other… I don’t know what plot Lin Zhen has been brewing with all the money he’s been making over the years.”

At this moment, Ye Hua revealed a sinister smile, “I know.”

“You know? Hurry and tell me! We know Luo Gou is coming to kill Lin Zhen, but he doesn’t know Lin Zhen’s whereabouts. Now that Lin Zhen has closed both the Dimensional Universe and battleship’s communication, we must provide Luo Gou with information when he arrives.”

Ye Hua then became serious, “I obtained the information by chance. You know, I previously inherited my father’s wealth, which enabled me to advance to a nine-star supreme customer. This allowed me to access a lot of information. At that time… I looked up information about Phoenix, because back then… ”

Tianci nodded, understanding that Ye Hua once had a crush on Feng Qingluan.

“Guess what I found out?”

“What?”

“Information about Phoenix Nirvana! Tianci, there’s a chance for Feng Qingluan to be resurrected!”

“She can be resurrected? That’s surprising. But even if she can be resurrected, it shouldn’t be that simple, right?”

Ye Hua snorted coldly, “It requires a flame power stronger than that of Feng Qingluan. Although I don’t know how he plans to upgrade the flame with the money he earned, it must be related to Feng Qingluan’s resurrection.”

Tianci listened to Ye Hua’s words and nodded repeatedly, “Your analysis makes a lot of sense. I’ll inform my father right away and have him relay the information to Luo Gou, so he can kill Lin Zhen in the Chaotic Star River.”

Upon saying that, Tianci contacted his father, Lord Tianfang.

At that moment, the ground suddenly shook!

Boom boom boom~!

Several houses in the courtyard collapsed.

“An earthquake? Damn! My father insists on living in these brick and stone houses, saying metal houses aren’t fit for humans and resemble cages. But these houses are so fragile, they need repairs after every earthquake.”

“Someone! Call the renovation team and tighten the security checks. Do not allow Lin Zhen to sneak in!”
