Chapter 688: 691: Capture the First Hero Flag!

When Lin Zhen encountered Liang Chen, the Nan Liang Forum went silent.

Honestly speaking, if Lin Zhen hadn’t appeared out of nowhere this time, Liang Chen’s performance would have been pretty good.

His ranking in the 39th Eastern battle zone is within the top hundred. If not eliminated later, he would have had a chance to obtain a Qi of Divine Transformation.

Moreover, Liang Chen even made a breakthrough in the Divine Punishment Star, becoming a Third Level Domain King.

His cultivation speed was already incredibly fast, and his Star Power was close to three million, making him an absolute genius among Domain Kings.

However, when compared to Lin Zhen, he seemed a little inadequate.

Moreover, it’s rumored that there were some grudges between Lin Zhen and Liang Chen. People from other countries might not know about it, but it had been spread with great detail on the Nan Liang Forum.

Just a moment ago, an article suddenly appeared.

The content of the article was titled: “Hero or Scum? Discussing the Character of Lin Zhen, the Holder of the Hero Banner of Nan Liang – Part One.”

This article was obvious the work of someone with a hidden agenda, not only was it automatically pinned to the top of the forum after appearing, but its content was also extremely detailed.

The main idea was that Lin Zhen, a martial artist from the New World, had been acting shamelessly and deceitfully since arriving in the Original World, causing many people harm and committing countless evils.

The poster did not list all the evidence at once, but only released one piece first.

The first piece of evidence was about the incident between Lin Zhen and Liang Chen.

Lin Zhen’s strength was outstanding, but he deliberately showed weakness to lure the Crown Prince Liang Chen to challenge him repeatedly on his stage. In this way, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost a lot of money, and it was even said that Crown Princess Ning Qingxuan lost thirty billion because of it!

The evidence was quite convincing, including Ning Qingxuan’s money transfer records to Liang Chen and his challenge records. Under their detailed arrangement, it became clear that Lin Zhen had tricked Liang Chen into losing money.

This news confirmed the rumor that indeed there was enmity between Lin Zhen and Liang Chen!

Now that Lin Zhen had encountered Liang Chen on Divine Punishment Star, he would definitely show no mercy and eliminate him.

Someone immediately commented: “If Lin Zhen eliminates Liang Chen, it proves that he is very despicable. Liang Chen is our Crown Prince and the pride of the people of Nan Liang. Moreover, his strength won’t even affect Lin Zhen. If Lin Zhen deals with him, I won’t admire him no matter how good his results are!”

“That’s right! I support the above. Lin Zhen, there are countless opponents in the Divine Punishment Star, do you really want to deal with Liang Chen?”

“I support the above!”

“Enough with the chatter, watch the situation closely. Maybe Lin Zhen won’t take action.”

“Whether he takes action or not, Lin Zhen caused the Crown Princess to lose money, and I can’t forgive him for that. My goddess is so pitiful.”

Although there were a lot of people discussing, many more people were still focusing on Lin Zhen, wanting to see what choice he would make.

Lin Zhen didn’t expect that the first person he would encounter in the 39th zone would be Liang Chen.

With a long sword in his hand, the young man was running quickly in one direction, likely toward the teleportation array in the center of the city.

When Lin Zhen appeared, Liang Chen almost bumped into him headfirst.

Coming to a sudden stop, Liang Chen looked at Lin Zhen and almost dropped his jaw.

“Lin… Lin Zhen!”

Seeing Liang Chen, Lin Zhen furrowed his brows slightly. If it were before, he wouldn’t have hesitated to take action, but now, Liang Chen was someone Ning Qingxuan had asked him to take care of, and Lin Zhen didn’t want to hurt him.

Furthermore, deep down in Lin Zhen’s heart, there was still a little bit of guilt towards Liang Chen for the losses he had caused him on his stage.

Moreover, when Lin Zhen looked at Liang Chen’s mentality now, he kind of felt like he was looking at a younger generation – Xuan’er’s foster son.

“What are you in such a hurry for? It’s not necessary to rush like this to go to another battle zone.”

When Liang Chen saw Lin Zhen, his eyes spewed fire: “Lin Zhen! How did you, a bastard, come here? Did you deliberately come to kill me? I knew you wouldn’t be kind-hearted. Even with such a good ranking you’ve obtained, you still came all the way from far away just to deal with me. Do you really think I’m a soft persimmon to pinch? Today I’ll fight you!”

With that, Liang Chen fiercely threw himself at Lin Zhen, and his longsword quickly stabbed.

Lin Zhen frowned. Liang Chen’s Star Power was not weak at all, having exceeded two million, but it was nothing compared to his 7 million Star Power.

A large power difference brought a lot of suppressive force. In addition, Lin Zhen still had many other tricks up his sleeve.

He directly used Time Deceleration, slowing down Liang Chen’s movements like a snail.

Lin Zhen kicked him in the butt, making Liang Chen land face down: “Do you think you’re even qualified to fight me now?”

Liang Chen fell to the ground in an extremely embarrassing way, eating a mouthful of dirt, but he still rolled over and jumped up: “Even if I die today, I’ll fight you…”

“Plop!”

Lin Zhen swiftly moved in and kicked him again, knocking him to the ground once more: “You better behave!”

Unexpectedly, Liang Chen showed an expression of sudden realization on the ground: “Ok, Lin Zhen, I get it now. You want to abuse me, don’t you? Let me tell you, I won’t give you that chance even if I die. When I get out of here, I’ll tell my mother what happened so she can seek revenge for me!”

“Tell your mother… You think I want to abuse you?” Lin Zhen’s face turned a bit cloudy, this kid’s brain seemed to have some problems.

“Don’t even think about it. Anyway, I’m blocked by you right now, and there’s still a Hero Banner chasing me from behind. I won’t survive. Even if I die, I will cover you with my snot!”

As she spoke, Liang Chen seemed to really want to flick Lin Zhen’s nose. Lin Zhen felt disgusted and kicked the boy far away again with one foot.

This kick only strengthened Liang Chen’s belief that Lin Zhen was going to abuse him. He put on a desperate and tragic look.

However, Lin Zhen didn’t pay any attention to him and instead turned towards the direction Liang Chen had run from.

Now that killing the same zone wouldn’t earn points, there was still a hero flag that wanted to kill him, which undoubtedly meant they had a grudge.

Since he encountered it, Lin Zhen couldn’t just ignore it.

As expected, a figure quickly approached from that direction.

This person was also a Spiritual Mind Master, stepping on a flying sword under his feet, his speed was very fast as he flew over in a streak of light.

As he was about to get close, Lin Zhen glimpsed his chest.

East 39, a red hero flag.

Although he didn’t know how this person ranked in the 39th battle zone, it didn’t matter. Since they had met, Lin Zhen couldn’t hold back.

Lin Zhen covered the distance of three steps within two steps and quickly met the oncoming person.

This hero flag was originally hunting Liang Chen, but when he saw Lin Zhen, his eyes lit up.

“Hahaha! I didn’t expect to find a hero flag intruder here! This is great! But you haven’t even managed to deal with that waste Liang Chen, and you still dare to challenge me. It seems that the 68th zone is a garbage area. Die!”

This Martial Artist’s mind moved, and three flying daggers were launched first.

Lin Zhen snorted coldly and activated Time acceleration, instantly rushing to the front of the Spiritual Mind Master.

The Phantom Light Sword appeared in his hand, Taiyuan!

No need to use spiritual power or other assistance, Time Acceleration combined with Taiyuan Sword Skill was already an incredibly powerful killing force!

A streak of lightning tore the sky, and a long spatial rift appeared in the 39th zone, the heavens seemed to have cracked like the earth, and this hero flag was the first to bear the brunt!

“Puff~~!!”

The body of the Spiritual Mind Master continued to fly forward for a while before a jet of blood shot out, then a green light rose, and the person disappeared from the Divine Punishment Star.

With a single sword swing, Lin Zhen’s points jumped again, from 1700s to 1600s.

“It was only a regular hero flag, not many points!”

At the same time, a message was played in the dimensional universe.

“In the Eastern Continent’s 39th battle zone, the holder of the ninth hero flag, Lin Erhu, was killed by the holder of the Eastern Continent’s 68th battle zone third hero flag, Lin Zhen!”

“Congratulations to Lin Zhen for being the first martial artist to kill a hero flag on the Divine Punishment Star. After the end of the Divine Punishment Star, you will receive a separate reward.”

This message was played three times in a row, leaving Lin Zhen stunned.

He was the first!

It could also be considered luck since he was the first to leave by teleportation from the swimming pool and immediately encountered Liang Chen upon arriving here. This hero flag happened to be hunting Liang Chen, and Lin Zhen ran into it.

This event had a huge element of luck. Lin Zhen was quite happy, feeling that he was still favored by the heavens. He also found Liang Chen much more pleasing to the eye now.

Just as Lin Zhen’s broadcast finished, the second one arrived: “Western Continent’s 19th battle zone number one hero flag holder, Chou Yueshan, was killed by the Western Continent’s 6th battle zone number one hero flag holder, Qin Jianfeng!”

The message only played once before it ended. It seems that only Lin Zhen’s first kill received three repetitions.

However, in terms of actual value, Lin Zhen’s kill couldn’t compare with Qin Jianfeng’s. Qin defeated a number one hero flag, while Lin Zhen only happened to kill a number nine hero flag along the way. The difference was too great.

“I stole Qin Jianfeng’s number one spot. Maybe he’ll hold a grudge against me for this.”

Then another message arrived, the third kill was by a person named Boston.

The fourth kill was by Feng Qingluan, which made Lin Zhen overjoyed. Was Little Phoenix responding to him this way?

The fifth kill was by Jun Mo, a person Lin Zhen knew from the Phoenix Clan’s Young Clan Leader.

Afterwards, a series of messages came one after another, as hero flags were continuously eliminated.

Qin Jianfeng even quickly killed his second hero flag, displaying his formidable strength.

Lin Zhen watched for a while, then suddenly turned around, kicked Liang Chen with a flying foot, making him tumble: “Are you done sneaking around like this? I’m telling you, kid, if you keep making these little moves, I’ll really abuse you.”

Seeing that he couldn’t resist, Liang Chen immediately resorted to his old tactic, “If you dare to do this to me, Lin Zhen, I’ll tell my mother!”

Lin Zhen squatted down beside Liang Chen, looked into his eyes, and said, “Why not tell your father? Isn’t your father the Emperor?”

“Uh… They are husband and wife, what’s the difference?” Liang Chen felt that Lin Zhen wasn’t catching the main point of his words. Didn’t he hear the threat in his statement?

It was then that Lin Zhen revealed a smile that was confusing to the people of Nan Liang: “Then if your father and mother get divorced one day, who will you choose to tell? Hmm…?”</p
