Words:2022Update:22/10/18 08:10:53
Half a month passed.
The Upheaval Alliance's vanguard possessed invisible spaceships and laser guns. As soon as the battle began, they were destined to be swept aside.
"Surrender!"
"Gather the resources!"
"Surrender!"
"Gather the resources!"
That was what the Upheaval Alliance had been doing all this time.
In order to ensure that the vanguard had sufficient numbers, they'd left the defense of the resource zones to the rest of the army of 3.7 million.
However …. Up until now, they still hadn't seen Huo Xie.
"I never would have guessed that guy was hiding so deeply."
Ye Zichen stood in the wilderness and looked out at the forest of vicious beasts. Over the past half month, they'd already broken through three defenses and reached the fifth region of the planet.
It was as if Huo Xie had vanished from the face of the planet.
Nevermind Ye Zichen, he hadn't even seen a single one of Huo Xie's subordinates.
"Han Qing!"
"Yes, sir!"
Han Qing had been assigned to this battle as a follow-up.
They'd conquered a large number of cities and needed Chicano to stay behind to manage them.
Han Qing had been assigned to this task as well.
It's worth mentioning that Han Qing was already at the first layer of the universe, and he'd gained his strength through Chicano's systematic training.
"Have you confirmed the integrity of the investigation?"
"Have you really not seen any of Huo Xie's subordinates?"
"I'm sure."
Han Qing nodded solemnly. "I've already sent people to investigate thoroughly. There really is no one with a flame imprint."
"That's strange."
Ye Zichen frowned.
Based on the speed of their advance and the coordinates Di Zhou had given them, they should've met up with Huo Xie by now.
How could they not have seen any of Huo Xie's subordinates?
He naturally didn't doubt Han Qing's ability to do his job. He was just curious.
"There are still a few more cities we haven't conquered."
"There's only one left!"
Replied Han Qing. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he said, "Reporting to the City Lord, we've conquered the last city as well."
"Let's go take a look!"
There were far fewer cities in the inner regions than in the outer regions.
The size of the cities and the overall strength of the residents were naturally incomparable to the outer regions.
When Ye Zichen's army entered …. The surrounding residents looked at them with dread.
Ye Zichen narrowed his eyes as he walked in the center, then looked at the many children in the city, whose eyes were filled with reverence.
"Don't harm any of the residents."
"I understand."
Han Qing nodded.
"Alright, let's begin the investigation."
Han Qing led the others away. Ye Zichen narrowed his eyes and released the power of the universe.
What surprised him was that … the strongest person in this city was actually a Level Six Nebula.
Maybe in Liujia Town … this kind of power couldn't be resisted. In the fifth district, which was already the core of the planet, how could the strongest person be at the sixth level of the Nebula System?
When they attacked the next area, Ye Xiwen's expression changed.
He had already encountered a Level Seven Nebula cultivator.
It couldn't be that the higher the grade of the region, the weaker the strength of the residents. This was simply impossible.
There was also the number of people in the city.
It seemed to be a little less.
He sat quietly on a house in the town, waiting for Han Qing to return and report to him.
About two hours later … "How is it?"
Ye Zichen quickly called out when he saw Han Qing return.
Han Qing shook his head lightly.
Ye Zichen's gaze darkened.
"Di Jia!"
"What's wrong, boss?"
Di Zhou ran over with the shovel, then subconsciously blanked out when he saw Ye Zichen's gaze. "Boss, I brought this chicken leg myself, I didn't steal it."
"I'm not asking about your chicken leg!"
"Are you sure the coordinates you gave me back then were accurate?"
"Of course!"
Di Zhou nodded vigorously. "The coordinates I gave you are absolutely accurate. Boss …. You can't possibly not trust me, right?"
"It's not that I don't trust you!"
In truth, Ye Zichen didn't even know what to say.
It didn't matter if Di Zhou's coordinates were accurate or not! They'd always surrounded the city. So long as they pushed deeper, they would definitely see Huo Xie.
But up until now! He hadn't seen him! "Daddy, I want daddy!"
At that moment, a young girl in the city clutched her mother's arm and burst into tears.
Several soldiers stood in front of them, conducting a second round of questioning.
Their method of questioning was rather polite.
Perhaps because the girl was relatively young, she was a bit scared, so she started crying.
Ye Zichen leaped down.
When the soldiers saw Ye Zichen, they respectfully greeted him.
"Your Excellency."
"You can leave. Go and check on the others."
The soldiers left. Ye Zichen smiled and squatted down, then gently wiped away the girl's tears.
"Don't be scared."
"Uncles just wanted to see if you were controlled by bad people or not. We're all good people."
Ye Zichen gently pinched the girl's cheeks.
Ye Zichen took out a few sugar balls.
"Here."
The girl stopped crying when she saw Ye Zichen's smile, then reached out to hold the sugar balls.
"Good girl."
Ye Zichen caressed the girl's face, then looked up towards the woman beside her with a smile.
"How old is she?"
"A bit over six," the woman replied rather nervously.
The woman was a little uneasy when she answered. She had never experienced something like this in all her years.
She was just a normal housewife, and was only at the fifth level of the Domain Realm. She was afraid when she saw so many galaxy and universe levels.
"This is a good time," Ye Zichen's tone was very gentle.
Ye Zichen's tone was very gentle. When he saw the girl, he also thought of his future children.
Ye Zichen patted the girl's head, then stood up.
"Where did her daddy go?"
"Uhh …" the woman pursed her lips without saying anything. Ye Zichen smiled when he saw her expression, "You don't have to be so nervous. Everything I said just now was true.
We're good people, we came here to save you. "
The woman continued to purse her lips without saying anything.
Ye Zichen let out a deep sigh, "Let me ask you this. Have you felt that your husband's behavior has been rather strange recently?
Or rather, did he gain some sort of mark on his body? Did his abilities change in any way? "
From start to finish, the woman did not speak.
Suddenly, the girl reached out her hand with a smile, "I know.
"I know. Daddy has a pattern that looks like a flame on his body. Daddy can also set fire!"
"Lil 'Ya!"
The woman yanked the girl.
Ye Zichen's eyes instantly widened, then grabbed the woman's arm.
"Big sis!"
"It's not that I'm trying to scare you, but if you insist on hiding it, you might harm your husband.
Having that flame mark isn't a good thing. It's a method to control the soul. Your husband is actually a puppet right now! "
