Translator: 549690339contemporary romance

Su Mingyue gazed up at Lin Zhen swaying in armor on the tree vines, her eyes somewhat blurred by tears, but a glimmer of hope surfaced in her heart.

He was right, a Martial Artist should never cease to fight, how could she just throw in the towel like that? This was irrespective of faith, and had nothing to do with God.

Even if she was betrayed by friends or abandoned by the Deity, she, Su

Mingyue, was still an independent person. How could she not treasure her life?

“Kid, I remember you! It was you who stole the Star Crystal that day, huh, you dared to appear before me, now I can snare all of you!” Hua suddenly recognized Lin Zhen.

“Yes, that’s right, it was me. You two move at the pace of a crawling tortoise. I, an Intermediate War General, evaded your grasp. You two don’t seem to be any big shots in the Crown District. What gives you the right to boast about catching all of us in a net?”

“Stop with the nonsense, kid. You got away once, but you won’t escape today.”

Lin Zhen laughed heartily: “Since I’ve come, I’ve not thought about running. You just wait.”

After saying that, he looked at Su Mingyue: “Su Saintess, rest quickly. I’ll take care of these two rascals. When you have rested, come and back me up.”

Su Mingyue nodded, wiping away tears with her hand, a sense of warmth resided in her heart.

Lin Zhen found that these two, after battling Su Mingyue, were currently at their weakest. He had just finished absorbing a Comet Crystal, so he was pretty much at his peak. He had made great strides to reach the mid-stage of the Four-level War General. He could use these two to get some practice!

“Granddad’s here!”

Lin Zhen leaped down from the vine, lunging at Hua. His shiny silver spear held high in the air, he put his newly developed skills to use – the Lightning River!

Lightning ions flickered on his body; silver arcs jumped on the spear, the spear flash in the air transforming into a towering tidal wave, directly engulfing Hua!

“What a fierce attack!” Hua’s expression changed, this Intermediate War General would be tough to deal with.

Nevertheless, he wasn’t afraid. As a Level Nine Martial General, he was

confident enough to take down Lin Zhen, even though he was also very exhausted.

Channeling the energy in his Dantian, he didn’t use the long sword in his hand, instead, he pulled out a long spear from the Space Ring.

As an Advanced War General, he was proficient in the use of various weapons. Facing a heavy weapon like the long spear, he also used a long spear to combat it.

The act of raising the flame and the clash of the two spears was like the collision of clubs!

“Clang! ”

The deafening noise shook the ears, Hua’s foot twitched slightly, but he still managed to keep standing.

“Silly boy, even if your attack is fierce, you’re bound to be weak afterward. Now watch my counterattack!”

Before he even finished speaking, Lin Zhen’s second attack had already arrived.

Still the towering tidal wave, the attack was inescapable, Hua had no choice but to face it head-on.

After another loud bang, Hua managed to hold on again and was about to retaliate, only to find himself in the devastating situation again. The third wave from behind Lin Zhen had risen and crashed down on him!

“How is this possible? How does this kid have the ability to launch this type of attack three times in a row? Can his Dantian energy supply keep up? This is unscientific!”

Regardless of whether it was scientific, Hua had to endure it. After the third collision, he couldn’t resist the strong impact anymore, falling back a step involuntarily.

Once he took that step back, Lin Zhen’s Lightning River waves came crashing at him one after the other.

Sparkling sparks continuously burst from the weapon, smacking against the tree trunk. Lin Zhen was like a blacksmith, swung the Iron Hammer to beat the iron, one wave after another crashed down. Before the first attack was over, the second was already brewing, and as soon as the second attack landed, the third began to gather.

After enduring more than a dozen times, Hua could no longer stand firm; he stumbled back under the continuous attacks, losing his advantage. It was hard for him to turn the tables under Lin Zhen’s attack. Finally, he couldn’t help but roar: “Lao San, what are you waiting for? Don’t worry about those two, come and save me!”

Only then did Lao San react. He hadn’t expected the powerful Hua to be impervious to the fierce attacks of Lin Zhen, an Intermediate War General. He swiftly picked up his knife and attacked from behind!

The two men attacked from front and back, and the situation finally showed some signs of improvement.

Lin Zhen could no longer launch the Lightning River to attack Hua ferociously. He switched from offense to defense, his shiny silver spear whistling as it spun faster than a windmill. Thousands of spear shadows appeared and disappeared, criss-crossing back and forth, but managed to withstand the joint attacks of the two.

Hua and Lao San couldn’t believe it. With their combined efforts, this measly Intermediate War General should be an easy catch!

The two of them advanced and retreated, sometimes attacking strongly, at times feigning weakness, occasionally attacking together and sometimes using sneaky moves. But no matter how their tactics changed, Lin Zhen stood firm like a mountain, spear in hand, immovable!

Tang Yu and Yingying watched Lin Zhen in astonishment. They couldn’t understand how this young man could have such formidable combat power, managing to withstand the furious attacks of the two Advanced War Generals without retreating even a step.

Would it kill you to retreat a step? How could you be so rigid? Tang Yu muttered in his heart. But Lin Zhen insisted on stubbornly defending his three-square-foot space, not budging an inch!

The clashes were as intense as popping beans. For five minutes, a full five minutes, Hua and Lao San were already exhausted and had to retreat temporarily.

“Brother Hua, look.” Lao San pointed at Lin Zhen’s feet as if he’d discovered a new world.

Hua, panting heavily, looked down to see that Lin Zhen’s feet had sunk five or six centimeters into the tree trunk. Yet, he hadn’t moved an inch.

“We didn’t force him back even half a step? How did he do that?” Hua looked at Lin Zhen in horror.

“Maybe… Maybe we’re just exhausted from the fight.” Lao San suggested uncertainly.

At that moment, Lin Zhen lifted his head and breathed out deeply, “Are you two done? If so, it’s my turn now.”

“Impossible, you still have the energy to attack?”

“Why don’t we test that out? Come, taste my Lightning River once more!”

With a shake of his long spear, the Lightning River roared again, and this time it was aimed at two people, the two Level 9 Martial Generals.

The three resumed their battle, and for a while, Hua and Lao San were even being beaten by Lin Zhen. They were completely at a loss as to how Lin Zhen could launch such high-intensity attacks.

Fortunately, with two of them, they could take turns blocking. If it had been just one of them, they would have already collapsed under such a powerful offense.

The intense fight continued for another five or six minutes. Lin Zhen stepped back, his chest heaving heavily, but he still maintained a defensive stance.

He could not sustain attacks of such intensity indefinitely. Considering that they were two Level 9 Martial Generals, he couldn’t defeat them in one go. He had to maintain his strength for defense until Su Mingyue had recovered, which would then be the time for a real counterattack.

Seeing Lin Zhen once again bracing himself for defense, Hua and Lao San began to feel helpless whilst panting heavily.

This man stood there, giving them the feeling of facing an insurmountable mountain. Their attacks felt like a stormy wind and rain, ineffective against a mountain, as if they were merely scratching an itch for it.

This feeling of despair led to a sense of powerlessness. They shared an understanding and began to consider retreating.

However, the current situation made it difficult for them to simply give up, and they were too exhausted to continue fighting, leaving them in a dilemma.

Such hesitation was fatal. Lin Zhen was currently at the end of his tether, that’s why he created the illusion of being immovable as a mountain to intimidate them. Were they to continue their relentless attack, Lin Zhen might have been defeated.

It was during their moment of hesitation that Su Mingyue stood up.

She had suffered a blow and her Qi was disrupted, leaving her temporarily incapacitated. But Lin Zhen bought her precious ten minutes, and she had recovered somewhat. Even though she was not completely healed, she was now capable of fighting.

“Lin Zhen, thank you. Let’s fight together!” Su Mingyue leaned her soft body against Lin Zhen. Their shoulders touching, she pointed her sword at Hua and Lao San.

Hua and Lao San exchanged a glance, both sensing that something was amiss.

The issue now was not about winning or losing, but about preserving their lives. They couldn’t defeat Lin Zhen alone, let alone the more formidable Su Mingyue. Their defeat was certain.

“Brother Hua, what should we do?” Lao San asked.

“What else can we do? Let’s retreat!”

The two shared an understanding and retreated as one, turning to flee.

“Each of us takes one. We can’t let them escape!” Su Mingyue, preparing to chase Hua, the stronger of the two, said.

“You chase that one. This one’s mine. Remember, we need them alive.” With a leap, Lin Zhen, stepping on his liquid metal shield, charged towards

Hua.

Hua, a Spiritual Mind Master with greater spiritual power than Lin Zhen, was on the verge of disappearing.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Lin Zhen thrust his shimmering silver spear and aimed straight for Hua’s heart.

“Hmph! Useless. Do you really think I’ll just stand here and let you shoot me?” Hua scoffed disdainfully and tried to change direction.

Just then, a powerful suction force came from behind, stopping his forward momentum. To his shock, he was pulled back violently.

Before he comprehended what was happening, the spear had pierced through his body, shattering his heart in one blow!

The Level 9 Martial General, a Late-Stage Golden Mind Master, met a tragic death on the spot!

Lin Zhen approached and before dealing with his spear, he swiftly removed the Space Ring from his adversary’s finger.

“Tsk, tsk! A Level 9 Martial General, a Golden Mind Master, must have a ton of good stuff. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

Given the pressing situation, he quickly pocketed the ring. Then, Lin Zhen pulled out his spear and kicked Hua’s corpse off the tree..
