Chapter 70: Don’t Hurt Him!
A gyrfalcon had its wing shot through.
A leopardās hind leg was broken.
A banded krait had its scales knocked off.
There was even a lion of the same clan whose legs went weak from the roar. The innate bloodline suppression and kingly aura of the Huangtaizi forced him to prostrate on the ground, lacking even the courage to step forward and fight.
In just a few short minutes, the majestic lion ended the battle.
With a clear goal, it galloped toward the crystal station of Zhongyang Cheng, which was flickering with dazzling light. As long as it could ignite all the quantum energy cannons inside, the planet would explode and disintegrate into ashes in an instant.
(Big brother!)
Hua Rong arrived. Knowing his strength was no match and unable to stop him, he reached out to activate a restriction to prevent him from escaping and harming others. However… the restriction that was usually easy to set up showed no response today, no matter how many times he tried.
It seemed to be suppressed by an even more powerful force.
Within a hundred-mile radius, only one art of restriction could exist at a time.
How could this be?
On Zhongyang Xing, besides him, only General Asilan mastered this technique and could easily suppress him. Now that the Zhanshen had fallen, there was no reason for it to fail!
He immediately used his Zhandouli to issue an order.
[Emergency broadcast of the Central Department news: A Xiongxing with SS-grade Zhandouli has suffered a mental collapse and entered the city in beast form. All citizens are to take temporary shelter in their homes, close all windows and doors, and are forbidden from going outside.]
[Ordering the White Lion Legion and the War Wolf Anti-Terrorist Elites to track and stand by. You must use sedatives to control him and bring him back to the palace.]
[Remember, you are forbidden from using any thermal weapons to harm him!]
“Yes!”
The Imperial Order was issued. Inside and outside Zhongyang Cheng, and across the entire Xingwang, things instantly reached a boiling point.
[An SS-grade Xiongxing? Besides the fallen General Asilan, where is there another SS-grade Xiongxing in the Empire?]
[Could it be the legendary Huangtaizi who was captured by the enemy as a child, came back with a mental collapse, and has been imprisoned in the East Palace?]
[Heavens! Thatās the eldest son of the Lion King lineage. With the innate power of the double pupils, the damage he could cause while frenzied is immeasurable!]
[What do I do? Iām outside right now. Is it too late to hide?]
[Thereās no hiding. The Zhandouli of an SS-grade Xiongxing can pull down mountains and uproot strongholds. Zhongyang Cheng is in trouble!]
[The Empire has lost its Zhanshen. No one can contend with him. Weāll have to use thermal weapons, right? But the range of damage caused by that would also be huge…]
“This is bad! This is bad!”
“The Huangtaizi has completely collapsed mentally and escaped the East Palace! He has already injured several princes and is harming people all over Zhongyang Cheng!”
Inside the Imperial City, guards were urgently relaying messages.
“What?” Hearing this, Su Miantangās heart suddenly sank. “How could Da Jinmao…”
Clearly, before she left, his state was getting better and better. His constitution was strong, his emotions were stable, and he was almost ready to enter the laboratory for treatment.
How could he have suddenly collapsed completely?
According to the historical records of Zhongyang Xing, there had never been a case where a beastman who completely lost their mind to the beast could return to normal.
He…
“Susu, wait for me here.”
Asilan placed a shield on her and spread his wings, flying toward Zhongyang Cheng.
“Hey!”
In just an instant, he vanished without a trace.
Su Miantang wanted to urgently summon a flight craft, but she didn’t have a Guangnao in her hand. She could only board the magnetic levitation board that Kaiselin had just used and fly in the direction he had gone.
“Aaahā”
“Help! Help!”
“A lion! Itās a huge lion…”
In Zhongyang Cheng, waves of terrified screams echoed alongside the chaotic crowd running and crashing into things. The scene was extremely disordered.
When the figure of General Asilan appeared in the sky, almost everyone went silent at the same time. First, they were shocked into speechlessness, and then they wept with joy.
“The Shangjiang! Itās the Shangjiang!”
“Heās not dead! Heās not dead!”
“Great! The protector of Zhongyang Xing has returned!”
“The Shoushen has manifested! He resurrected the Shangjiang! Hahahaha…”
A terrifying aura suddenly blanketed the area. The newcomer had set a restriction across tens of thousands of meters; there was no escape. The lion looked up, staring at him with a murderous glint in its eyes.
(You dare block me!)
It immediately activated the power of its double pupils.
Asilan dodged to the side.
So, this was the other SS-grade Xiongxing his father often spoke ofāthe Huangtaizi imprisoned in the East Palace.
Innate double pupil power.
He really wanted to see just how powerful it was.
Flapping his wings, he lured the beast into a deserted mountain valley.
A battle between two SS-grade Xiongxing was unprecedented on this planet. The powerful strength of both sides caused dust to billow and the ground to shake. Red, scorching flames and sharp blue light entangled, collided, and exploded in the air, erupting in rays of light that stung the eyes.
The light traveled tens of thousands of miles. Fred and Enzuo, who had just finished a military mission and were returning, saw it and were shocked.
How could a battle with such destructive power be happening on the planet?
And…
Fred picked up the long-range telescope.
“How is this possible?”
“Those bursts of red flame… is that General Asilan?!”
In the valley, there was an incredibly bold marmot Xiongxing influencer. For the sake of traffic, he didn’t hesitate to risk his life, crouching behind a rock to start a livestream.
Unfortunately, nothing could be seen in the frame except for the blinding light.
[The Shangjiang must win! The Shangjiang must win!]
[As expected of the Empireās protector. He always steps forward in the people’s darkest hour.]
[The noble Huangtaizi, an SS-grade Xiongxing, has actually turned into a beast and is fighting a hero of the state. Itās too tragic. If only he were still normal…]
[This is a contest between equals. Iām so worried theyāll both be destroyed.]
[May the Shoushen protect the Zhanshen. He must be safe. we can’t afford to lose him again!]
[Youāre overthinking it. Even if they are the same grade, their combat experience is completely different. Not to mention the Huangtaizi has already become a wild beast.]
General Asilan had practiced martial arts since childhood under the old Marshal of the national army. He entered the barracks at fourteen and participated in brutal interstellar wars hundreds of times. He was already an invincible War God. Meanwhile, the Huangtaizi, though possessing noble blood and extraordinary talent, had been trapped and tortured in laboratories and prisons for decades. He had no combat experience and quickly fell into a disadvantage.
“So this is the famous Lion King?”
“Innate double pupil power?”
The corners of Asilanās lips curled, his mockery self-evident.
“Pathetic.”
“Shangjiang!”
“General, please do not hurt my sonā”
At the base of the valley, Wanghou Zhanni arrived in a panic. Seeing her son covered in wounds, her heart ached so much she could barely stand.
“Wanghou.”
“He has already turned into a beast. If he lives on, he will only harm the planet.”
A ball of raging flame gradually brewed in Asilanās palm, intending to end it with a single strike.
“No!”
“Yin’er…”
“Lanlan, don’t hurt Da Jinmao!”
At that moment, a clear, pleasant voice suddenly rang out, echoing through the mountains and forests.
