The door closed gently, but still made a sound.
Darkness could not obstruct Lin Zhen’s sight, and he clearly saw Brother
Guang sitting up from the bed and asking in a low voice, “Who’s there?”
Lin Zhen raised his hand and lit the oil lamp in Brother Guang’s tree hole, then sat slowly on Brother Guang’s chair.
“It’s me.”
“Lin Zhen!” Brother Guang was first startled, then asked, “What are you doing here again?”
“Settling the accounts from two years ago. Don’t tell me you don’t know about it, pretending to be ignorant is useless, Zhang Sicheng already told me everything.”
Hearing this, Brother Guang sneered, “Lin Zhen, as expected, you wouldn’t just let it go. I’m surprised you could bear it for two years. I should have taken care of you long ago. But you’re too naive. What happened between me and Zhang Sicheng was just a transaction and had nothing to do with anything else, there’s no grudge between us. Can’t you just let go of that?”
Lin Zhen walked toward Brother Guang, “Since I came, doesn’t it represent my attitude? Tell me everything about the Sky Dome and the Beehive.”
Although Lin Zhen was determined, Brother Guang was not afraid. Sitting there, he said to Lin Zhen, “Wasn’t what I said during the day clear enough? I am Sky Dome’s person. Everything I do here is watched, and I’ve reported the situation here. If something happens to me, you, Lin Zhen, will be the prime suspect. Do you dare to cause me trouble?”
“So what if I cause trouble?” asked Lin Zhen.
“That won’t end well! By that time, your little girlfriend might be implicated.” Brother Guang believed that he had found Lin Zhen’s weak spot.
Lin Zhen sneered, “If you’re in trouble, then my girlfriend gets implicated? I don’t really believe that.”
“You can try it.” Brother Guang hardened his scalp and said, now he was getting a little worried that Lin Zhen might take a desperate risk.
Lin Zhen moved closer, “During the day, I also mentioned to you, you’ve been in the Ant Nest for so many years, gathered so much good stuff. Where is everything? 1–land it over, and I’ll spare your life.”
“You’re dreaming! Do you really think you’re invincible at the peak of Level Nine? Don’t you know about compressing dantian qi? I’m a strong one with three layers of compressed dantian qi, the first in the entire Ant Nest. What are the grounds for you to challenge me?”
“I rely on this!”
Suddenly, Lin Zhen burst forth, his long hair flying up. Golden light flickered in his eyes, and within it, a hint of dark gold circulated. A mental shock rushed straight into Brother Guang’s mind!
“Soul Lock!”
Before Brother Guang had a chance to react, he felt a tearing pain in his mind, an unstoppable force rushing straight to his soul!
“Ah! You’re actually about to advance to the Dark Gold level… What is this…? It’s so painful!”
Brother Guang held his head with both hands, rolling and howling in pain on the ground, making a mess of the room.
He desperately tried to expel the soul-deep pain, but how could Lin Zhen give him such an opportunity? The surging Dark Gold level spiritual power directly locked onto his soul.
“Hissing! What is this… Ah! If I get in trouble… Sky Dome won’t let you go… Ah!
Stop it! I’ll give you money, all my money!”
“It’s useless. I claimed your money long ago. Daring to plot against Ming Yue, your death is well deserved!”
“No! I can’t die! If I die, you will be in trouble, too!”
“I’m not telling you to die, just live as if you were dead!”
As Lin Zhen spoke, his spiritual power strengthened further, finally breaking through Brother Guang’s mental resistance!
After five minutes, Lin Zhen was sweating on the top of his head, but after the five minutes, Brother Guang’s struggle ceased.
“Phew! That was difficult, using Soul Lock for the first time, it has some immature parts in the technique. If I could practice more, it wouldn’t be so tiring. Thankfully, I wasn’t impulsive in the morning, otherwise, it would be more troublesome.”
Lin Zhen sat down again and looked at Brother Guang lying on the ground,
“Get up, answer what I ask.”
Brother Guang climbed up from the ground, looked at Lin Zhen, then bowed his head obediently.
He had no change in his own consciousness, but whatever Lin Zhen asked, he would definitely answer without any reservations.
That’s because Lin Zhen’s spiritual imprint was already on his soul. As long as Lin Zhen wouldn’t free him, he would be a puppet for his whole life, never having the slightest intention to resist Lin Zhen.
“After being taken to the Sky Dome, Su Saintess was once very desperate and tried to escape multiple times, but she was always caught by her senior sister. It was not until the Little Overlord took a liking to her that Su Saintess had no choice but to rely on her senior sister for survival.”
“Little Overlord’s strength is powerful, it’s rumored that he has already compressed his dantian qi eight times. There are countless War Generals in the Sky Dome who have compressed their dantian qi….”
“I heard she’s been working hard in the Sky Dome, always able to obtain Constant Star Crystals, and has been compressing her Dantian gas for more than a year now, making significant progress in her strength…”
“Lin Zhen, you need to hurry up. As far as I know, Little Overlord Yue Feng seems to want to marry Su Mingyue, and it’s only because Su Mingyue’s sister is stopping him that he hasn’t made a move yet. However, Su Mingyue’s sister can’t stay in the Star Fruit Tree for much longer, maybe not even a year. When that time comes, no one will be able to stop Yue Feng…”
As Brother Guang spoke, Lin Zhen listened, feeling a series of sharp pains in his heart. His longing for Su Mingyue had never stopped over these two years, but he never let it show in front of others.
“Give me your assets.” Lin Zhen issued another command.
Brother Guang obediently handed over a Space Ring to Lin Zhen. He originally used the Marching Stone, but many students had started wearing Space Rings over the past two years, and he got one as well from his collection in the Ant Nest.
Lin Zhen opened the ring and looked inside, overjoyed.
There were many bank cards inside, and Brother Guang had even recorded the passwords for each of them. These were all given to him by other Martial Artists, and he had planned on using them after leaving the nest, but now they fell into Lin Zhen’s hands.
What Lin Zhen lacked now was cash. When asking Brother Guang, he said there were about 30 billion in cash in these bank cards. Advanced War Generals who could come to the God Generals Training Camp were all wealthy, and Brother Guang had earned a lot as well.
Zhang Sicheng alone accounted for more than 20 billion in total wealth. It could be said that more than half of the things here belonged to him, ultimately falling into Lin Zhen’s hands, which could be considered karma.
In addition to bank cards, there were many other items like weapons, combat suits, and even Dark Energy Stones, worth over 5 billion in total.
It wasn’t until a full hour later that Lin Zhen left Brother Guang’s room.
Brother Guang still looked no different from a normal person, and his actions remained unchanged. Unless a Dark Gold Level Spiritual Mind Master carefully investigated and found abnormalities, no one could see through it.
Lin Zhen had gotten all the information he wanted and had given Brother
Guang all the necessary instructions. Ma Mingxing and Sun Tie could continue to stay in the Ant Nest and enjoy the Star Crystals that Brother Guang collected daily.
This guy had absorbed all the Star Crystals for himself, but despite this, his Realm progress wasn’t fast because he never went to the edge of life and death experiences, and his strength wasn’t strong enough to be easily captured by Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen was satisfied with his actions this time. According to Brother Guang, the total value of these items exceeded 30 billion, which, combined with Lin Zhen’s 10 billion, was almost enough to buy the vitality elixirs for his parents.
Having dealt with Brother Guang’s matters, Lin Zhen left the Ant Nest again.
In the dark night, Lin Zhen moved slowly, even staying in one place for two days in the middle to consolidate his newly promoted Spiritual Power.
On the third day, Lin Zhen returned to the tree hole where Li Changying was hiding.
After three days of rest, Li Changying’s injuries had completely healed. They were all superficial wounds, which were nothing to him.
He waited anxiously here, not daring to leave rashly, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Zhen arriving: “Lin Zhen, you finally came. If you hadn’t come back, I might have gone to the Ant Nest to find you.”
“I was delayed by something on the way, and it just so happened to give you time to recover. This time when we go to the Beehive, I need a healthy Northwestern God of War.”
Li Changying patted his chest, “I definitely have no problem. Now that I’m with you, and Jiang Huai and the others will come in a few days, I will definitely make those arrogant people in the Beehive pay the price!”
“And then?” Lin Zhen asked.
Li Changying was momentarily stunned: “What do you mean, ‘and then’?” “After dealing with those people, what’s next?”
Li Changying thought for a while: “Isn’t it just cultivating, compressing
Dantian gas, and then advancing to the War God and leaving this place?”
Lin Zhen smiled: “The Martial Artists inside the Star Fruit Tree must feel that the Star Crystal collection is unreasonable, right?”
“Of course, as far as I know, both Beehive and Ant Nest have people collecting
Star Crystals, and these people are actually from the Sky Dome. The entire Star Fruit Tree is controlled by them, and no one can resist.”
Lin Zhen turned and looked into Li Changying’s eyes: “Since everyone feels that it’s not fair, why don’t we overthrow the rule of the Sky Dome and let Martial
Artists in the Star Fruit Tree return to a fair competition? What do you think?”
Upon hearing Lin Zhen’s earth-shattering words, Li Changying’s mouth opened and closed a few times, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
He dared to compete with someone in the Beehive because he was oppressed too much and had no choice but to resist. He had never even thought of truly overthrowing the Beehive’s rule, nor did he think he could do it.
But now Lin Zhen was telling him to overthrow the Sky Dome. Even though Li Changying was known as the Northwestern God of War, he was still too shocked to speak. That was the Sky Dome, the place that had ruled the Star Fruit Tree for hundreds of years, with countless Martial Artists compressing their Dantian gas inside. How could it be overthrown?
Lin Zhen smiled: “If the Northwestern God of War is too afraid, then we’ll part ways. I can do this on my own.”
With that, Lin Zhen turned around and walked away. When he left the tree hole, a gust of wind blew, and his clothes fluttered, giving off a tragic heroic aura, as if he would never return from his lofty aspirations.
Li Changying’s face flushed, feeling the blood rushing to his head. He blurted out uncontrollably: “Alright! Lin Zhen, I admire your boldness so much that I feel ashamed, and I worship you to death.. From now on, you are my idol, and
I’m with you till the end!”
