Sword Shatters Stars

Chapter 140 Annihilation of the Enemy

Amidst the purple lightning, Xiang Meiyan's consciousness blurred, and she lost the initiative to unleash her unstoppable power.

When the light of the purple lightning subsided.

The Thunder God, in his guise as Fang Yuan, and the Winning Fish King, in his capricious form, treated Xiang Meiyan and her three Heavenly Warrior companions like water balls, slapping and bumping them around.

Not long after, they were all killed in succession.

The one Thor had in his mouth also died.

The dense fog, which had spread over a radius of more than ten kilometers, rapidly contracted, contracted...

The thick, dark-colored fog covering the mountains and fields rapidly contracted and gathered, like layers of clouds.

As the dense fog was absorbed back into the Mist Spirit King's body, the depleted Heavenly Martial Power was rapidly recovered.

Once the dense fog had completely dissipated, the Mist Spirit King had only lost one-tenth of his true Heavenly Martial Power.

In other words, the Mist Spirit King can withstand this level of dense fog for quite some time.

Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue felt much more at ease. This was the most important force for the Youlinfeiyue Base to stand firm in the central part of the Dream Continent and fight against the enemy's attack with fewer troops.

The complete annihilation of the twelve Heavenly Warriors, led by the Deputy Commander of the Heavenly Realm, today is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Heavenly Realm organization.

But if Fantian is not satisfied, his next attack will surely be with an even larger force.

As long as the Mist Spirit King's dense fog can last long enough, there's nothing to fear.

As the thick fog dissipated, the surrounding rolling mountains and forests returned to the hazy, rain-shrouded landscape created by the torrential rain.

Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue deactivated their transformations, turning into armadillo kings and tumbling down the cliff into the water.

They saw Lin Qiru, Fang Yuan, and Ren Xing floating up with the small bags that the twelve Heavenly Warriors of the Fantian Organization had packed in the water.

Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue deactivated their transformations, their faces emerging from the water, and they laughed heartily at each other with their three companions.

As expected, this battle was won brilliantly!

"It's such a pity! One hundred and forty layers of Heavenly Power! The Commander and Vice Commander didn't absorb much of it!"

Renxing was very excited. He had absorbed so much martial power in one go. Compared to dealing with mutated beasts, Heavenly Warriors were much easier to deal with!
However, she felt that Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue had made too great a sacrifice.

"In team battles, winning is the most important thing."

Lin Xiufeng also felt it was a pity, but there was nothing he could do. Without the dense fog of the Mist Spirit King, it wouldn't have been so easy.

"We did gain something, too. We absorbed some of the scattered Heavenly Martial Power through the Mist Spirit King's dense fog. There are fourteen layers of it."

Zhao Youyue comforted the capricious boy, saying that this number was a lot under normal circumstances, but it was too few compared to 140 floors.

"I absorbed 150 layers, and Thor bit me to death absorbed more."

Fang Yuan reported on his gains and said with a touch of envy:
"It's a pity that the King of the Snakehead's fangs aren't as manipulable as Thor's. Lin Qiru also absorbed less today. Actually, controlling the enemy's escape was all thanks to you!"

"There are so many! There are forty-eight floors. Since joining the group, my martial arts skills have improved by leaps and bounds, it's like a dream."

Lin Qiru was very satisfied and content. The battle situation was coordinated according to the circumstances, and Thor and Winfish King, who were the main attackers in the water, would definitely absorb the lion's share.

She's best suited to keeping enemies from escaping; there's nothing to complain about.

As Lin Xiufeng said, if the team wins, everyone is good; if they lose, everyone is unlucky.

The group went up to the misty forest mountain range divided by the ring abyss. Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue went to the main base to find Ma Jin, while Fang Yuan and the other two went to the old base to inform everyone that they were safe.

Upon arriving at the main base, Zhao Youyue said she would check everything to confirm everything.

Lin Xiufeng went to Ma Jin's house alone, lifted the cover on the cellar door, then lifted the door panel, and called out:

"never mind."

"Have all the Heavenly Warriors who overturned the heavens retreated?"

Ma Jin was incredulous. Although he thought Lin Xiufeng was confident, he never expected the battle to end so quickly!

"The enemy has been completely wiped out," Lin Xiufeng said with a smile.
“Let’s talk about it when we get up here. Why don’t you go check on Liu Qingqing and tell her to leave quietly?”

"Okay." Ma Jin left the cellar and went to Liu Qingqing's room. Liu Qingqing's clothes were still there.

Ma Jin looked around, lifted the cellar door and went down. Looking at the traces inside, he found another pair of earrings and fell silent for a moment...

Ma Jin had prepared himself mentally beforehand, and even felt that this was a good thing.

Since the Liu Qingqing he loved no longer exists, what happens to this Liu Qingqing is none of his business.

But at that moment, holding those earrings, Ma Jin was suddenly overwhelmed by grief and burst into uncontrollable sobs...

For a moment, only his cries could be heard in the cellar.

Lin Xiufei went into the house and heard crying coming from the cellar. She silently turned around and walked out, closing the door behind her.

Lin Xiufeng decided not to ask about Liu Qingqing's matter. He had already told his comrades that Ma Jin should let Liu Qingqing go, so no one would bring it up again.

As for Ma Jin's crying, he pretended not to know it.

Ma Jin and Liu Qingqing had several wonderful years together…

Lin Xiufeng suddenly remembered something his father had said in a conversation many years ago:

When people are young, they are easily impulsive in love and friendship, and may think that a problem in the moment equals a problem forever.

In reality, he was only in his teens or twenties, and his lifespan was only a fraction of a lifetime.

Even so, how many changes have occurred during this period, and how many things were once thought to be absolutely irreplaceable?

However, as time goes by, it becomes nothing more than a memory, or even forgotten in a corner of memory, covered with a thick layer of dust.

Where do so many things come from that are irreplaceable, and how can eternity be easily defined?

The closest thing to eternity is the emotion bound by blood, which is the underlying nature determined by selfish genes.

Therefore, Lin Xiufeng felt that people like Fang Yuan and Ren Xing, who did not have a normal upbringing with paternal and maternal love, were as if they had lost the only love in their lives that could be defined as eternal.

This is a great misfortune.

Outside the eaves, in the pouring rain, Zhao Youyue walked out of a house, looked at him, and smiled.

"Nobody's here. Is Ma Jin still inside? Should we go to the old base and wait for him?"

"How thoughtful." Lin Xiufeng smiled as he walked into the rain, took Zhao Youyue's hand, and the two of them deliberately swung their arms back and forth as they walked.

Despite the rain, they were filled with laughter and joy.

Back at the old base, the expanded 'Youlin, Feiyue' village of Shanwang Village, more than thirty old members gathered in the restaurant lobby after being reminded by Ma Jin.

The silent atmosphere was instantly broken by the arrival of Lin Xiufeng and Zhao Youyue.

More than thirty veteran members quickly stood up, each with their own distinct feelings, and shouted:

"Greetings, Commander! Greetings, Deputy Commander!"

Lin Xiufeng could tell that many people were feeling uneasy. He also noticed that Fang Yuan remained silent as always, and Lin Qiru never took the initiative to liven up the atmosphere.

As for his stubbornness with a sullen face—

It's easy to guess that, given her willful nature, she never truly forgave the people here, and her forgiveness of Ma Jin was merely a prejudiced one.

Expecting her to give these thirty-odd veteran members a friendly look? That's wishful thinking.

With such a combination, it would be strange if the atmosphere wasn't tense.

Lin Xiufeng realized it was his responsibility; he really should have let Zhao Youyue and the others come together.

"The twelve Heavenly Warriors who invaded—all annihilated!"

"The more than five hundred Heavenly Martial Souls of the Overturning Heaven Organization who control and threaten you will be completely annihilated!"

"Guys—your recent slump is over!"
