Chapter 1353: Chapter 6 You… You are… [Please Subscribe to the Official Version]

As long as someone within Wu Ci’s forces can escape and preserve the bloodline of this faction, it doesn’t matter if I die.

“Brother, you died for Wu Ci’s forces, so I will inherit your will and become the new guardian deity of Wu Ci’s forces!”

Huangfu, heavily wounded, recalled his vow made years ago after the death of his most admired brother during a desperate battle.

Back then, to fulfill this dream, he courageously attempted to ascend from the Respect Level to the Semi-permanent Star Level. Against all odds, he succeeded and became the new guardian deity of Wu Ci’s forces, although many doubted him and labeled him the weakest guardian deity in history…

But now, in Wu Ci’s forces’ most perilous moment, this “weakest guardian deity” resolutely stood against an enemy he could barely hope to match.

He was expressing his will with his own death!

Above the starry sky, a glimmer appeared. The Semi-permanent Star Level powerhouse, seemingly poisoned by Huangfu’s blow, suddenly laughed heartily and emerged unscathed before the masses.

“Hahaha… Huangfu, do you really think your poison is flawless? Ridiculous. We’ve long studied your poison. In this technological age, you believe such a trivial toxin can’t be countered?”

Huangfu gazed in shock at the vibrant genius before him, despair creeping into his heart.

He forced a bitter smile. Of course, the enemy faction, endowed with technological prowess and genius-level abilities, would be prepared. After observing his frequent use of poison in previous battles, it was inevitable they’d find a way to neutralize it before attacking.

The Semi-permanent Star Level genius swiftly closed the distance to Huangfu, his attacks quick and fierce.

Though Huangfu could see his opponent’s speed, he had no means to evade. The disparity in raw power between them was far too immense.

A burst of blood splattered through the air.

Devoid of toxin-induced harm, Huangfu was helplessly outmatched by his adversary.

He was once again gravely injured.

“Hold on, we’re about to breach Wu Ci’s star body’s defenses. Let’s let Lord Huangfu witness the destruction of Wu Ci’s forces himself.”

An Erlong Power Semi-permanent Star Level genius suddenly stopped the powerhouse about to kill Huangfu.

“Sounds good. Huangfu, so absurdly loyal to Wu Ci’s forces, even when disrespected by subordinates. Let him see, foolishly, how the faction he’s trying so hard to protect is obliterated.”

The Semi-permanent Star Level powerhouse grinned and agreed.

During their exchange, Huangfu attempted to resist but was entirely suppressed. No matter how he struggled or attacked, there was no chance of breaking free.

In his despairing gaze, a burst of light fractured across Wu Ci’s star body surface.

With its protective shield shattered, Wu Ci’s star body was fully exposed to the wolf-like Erlong Power strong ones.

“Haha, charge!”

The secondary powerhouses roared as they rushed toward the exposed prize without hesitation.

While Wu Ci’s star fired desperate volleys of cannon fire, most of its energy had been depleted defending the shield. The remaining firepower was utterly ineffective against the secondary powerhouses.

After all, the starry sky creatures possessed unique skills, enabling them to dodge the projectiles with ease.

Boom!

A powerhouse breached Wu Ci’s artificial atmosphere, unleashing a terrifying explosion of power upon entry. Below, numerous devices detonated instantaneously with deafening roars.

Within Wu Ci’s forces, weaker Respect Level geniuses suffered serious injuries from the shockwaves. Though the Respect Level and Secondary Level normally differed by only one rank, the attacker was a genius of immense strength, while Wu Ci’s forces were comparatively mediocre, making the vast damage inflicted by mere brainwave power unsurprising.

“Damn it!”

From the starry void, Huangfu watched the chaos unfold. Furious and desperate, he tried to free himself from his Semi-permanent Star opponent’s grasp, but to no avail.

He could only look on helplessly as Wu Ci’s geniuses were wounded, some weaker ones even perishing.

Huangfu’s eyes burned with rage and despair, blood nearly surging from his veins.

He hated his lack of strength and talent. If only he were stronger, Wu Ci’s humiliation at the hands of Erlong Power could have been avoided.

“Hahaha, Huangfu, weren’t you trying to flee? Weren’t you placing your faith in Jia Yan? Do you still believe in him now? Do you still think he’s the High-Level Genius people claim? Let me tell you—after we deal with you, Jia Yan is next. He’s nothing more than another worthless failure like you all.”

Huangfu froze, momentarily stunned. He felt as though all the horrors plaguing Wu Ci’s forces were caused by Jia Yan—the supposed High-Level Genius.

Would he blame Jia Yan for this?

“No! I believe Jia Yan truly is a High-Level Genius. Wait and see! The half-year rendezvous will soon arrive. When Jia Yan returns and learns of Wu Ci’s destruction, your Er Tian forces will meet the exact same fate!”

The Semi-permanent Star powerhouse restraining Huangfu sneered, tightening his grip before delivering another brutal blow.

Huangfu, already devastated, was struck with crushing force. His long body was nearly torn in two, his vitality visibly fading.

Yet in what seemed like the last burst of his life, Huangfu defiantly shouted once more.

“Haha, Er Tian forces! You broke the rules by attacking Wu Ci because you feared us. No matter how I, Huangfu, die today, I’ll wait below for the day when your Er Tian faction suffers the same fate as Wu Ci’s forces!”

“Hmph. Since you’re still spouting nonsense, there’s no point in delaying. Die now!”

The Semi-permanent Star monster’s face twisted with fury, unleashing a final, vicious strike.

Given Huangfu’s current state, this blow would undoubtedly end his life.

Though he recognized the inevitability, his eyes locked onto his opponent’s face—a face he would burn into his memory.

And just then, a voice, calm yet laced with fury, resonated across the battlefield…

“He will not die!”

With those words, a razor-sharp limb emerged slowly from the distorted subspace.

The limb extended from the subspace, suggesting the speaking creature’s body lay just beyond it. Even before seeing him, the surrounding powerhouses—Respect Level, Secondary Level, and even Semi-permanent Star Level—all felt an inexplicable chill run down their spines.

The voice itself affirmed this was no ordinary force.

In mere fractions of a second, the leg struck. It pierced the Semi-permanent Star Level monster attacking Huangfu, targeting his vital back.

A spray of blood burst forth, a vibrant explosion staining the battlefield. The blood belonged to the same arrogant Semi-permanent Star powerhouse now poised for death.

“This…”

The dying monster turned to see his killer, disbelief etched across his face as he met the cold gaze of the dark assailant stepping from the subspace.

“It’s… It’s you!” he stammered, his words cut short as his head slumped lifelessly.

Huangfu, expecting death, was startled by the sudden voice. Moments later, the creature ready to finish him was struck down, leaving him stunned.

Looking up, Huangfu recognized the dark figure emerging from the subspace.

“It’s you?!”

Huangfu gasped in surprise.

“Haha, let’s leave catching up for later. First, let’s clean up these nuisances.”

The newly arrived monster nodded faintly toward Huangfu before turning to the shocked Er Tian monsters frozen in fear.

“You… You’re…”

A Semi-permanent Star Level monster trembled, seemingly recognizing the newcomer, his terror manifesting.

Before he could shout out the name, the dark creature’s sharp limb shot forward with impossible speed, puncturing his body deeply…

“How did he become so terrifying?”

Elsewhere, several Semi-permanent Star Level monsters from the Er Tian forces also recognized the newcomer, but their shock kept them from accepting reality.

“Your Er Tian forces have crossed the line. We negotiated terms, but you’ve slaughtered Wu Ci’s geniuses and sought to annihilate the entire faction. So destroying Er Tian is nothing short of righteous vengeance.”

The dark monster casually strode past another Semi-permanent Star genius.

Without a sound, this terrified Wu Ci force monster was split in two, cleaved cleanly from head to abdomen.

“You… You… You…”

In the mere moments since his arrival, the blackened creature had already slaughtered three Semi-permanent Star Level powerhouses, leaving the remaining two shaken to their cores.

They recognized the terrifying figure too well, but no familiarity bred comfort—only dread.

“Jia Yan! You’ve returned… and your power has become monstrous!”

One of the Er Tian Semi-permanent Star Level strong ones finally stammered out the name of the unrelenting menace.
