Chapter 420: Chapter 418 Yishenmali, This is All Your Fault

Wei Tianyang could not restore her, so he could only withdraw.

Zhao Ling was half-dead, and her physical wounds still needed medical attention. He put a dark golden light shield on her mutilated body and left with Baphomet.

The torrential rain suddenly stopped, and the ground beneath Wang Ye’s feet turned into a muddy quagmire, ankle-deep. The soldiers hiding in the factory also came out, supporting the wounded, as everyone searched for missing people using searchlights.

"You saw that just now, didn’t you? Wang Ye?!" The veteran was somewhat excited.

Wang Ye nodded. It was hard not to see it, really, especially since the brief battle of just over ten seconds was earth-shattering, not only deafening but even the ground trembled.

It was the first time he deeply understood what it meant to "command the wind and rain."

"That must have been our Trinity! So impressive! Took out the monster immediately upon appearing!" the veteran said with a laugh.

At that moment, many different voices came through the communication channel.

Ground troops had witnessed the existence of a giant and saw the fall of the monster; many were cheering, but many others remained silent.

Wang Ye did the same; he didn’t join in the cheering and instead sent his coordinates. He had two wounded to look after, and he did not believe that the black giant was the Trinity of Dayin.

Tanks and armored vehicles quickly breached the ruined walls and found them.

Then, Li Suyuan contacted Wang Ye, "Yezi, you’re still alive."

"Li Suyuan?!" Wang Ye was startled; he had already mentally prepared himself.

"Surprised? We took a group of civilians and hid in the subway tunnels, barely managing to save our lives—it was really close! Thankfully, the Trinity came." Li Suyuan chuckled.

"The rescue operation will start soon, right? The air force lost more than a dozen fighter jets, and I saw that troops are being dispatched to search for pilots," Wang Ye said.

"To be honest... it’s not safe to stay in Fengrao City anymore, it could collapse at any time; we need to evacuate the people inside," suggested Li Suyuan.

"Let’s see what the Commander-in-chief decides," Wang Ye responded.

After the communication ended, the wounded got into the armored vehicles, and Wang Ye with the remaining people joined a rescue team heading for the ruins, hoping to find his mother among the fleeing crowd.

The Commander-in-chief, stationed over a hundred kilometers away at the command center, was closely monitoring the situation. As soon as the monster was eliminated, he hurriedly made a secure long-distance call to Venerable Qin.

Contrasting with the humid, dark atmosphere of Dayin, Venerable Qin was taking refuge in a property in Libitelli.

The estate, built halfway up the mountain, bright and clean with room temperatures controlled by central air conditioning. Last time, to escape Wei Tianyang, she had already moved a lot of exquisite porcelain and furniture from Dayin; this time, she had taken another batch by train.

Outside and inside the estate, the Superpower Special Department soldiers served as guards and bodyguards, with over 400 in a triangular formation, 120 in double-triangle formations, and 20 Trinities patrolling the estate. They comprised all of Dayin’s superpower soldiers, capable of annihilating a nation’s army, kept close by Venerable Qin to protect herself.

Moreover, Zhao Ling’s accumulated 40 years’ worth of three major naval fleets had been relocated from the national port along with Venerable Qin to Libitelli. They patrolled international waters, guarding against enemies Venerable Qin imagined.

It was currently afternoon in Libitelli, and Venerable Qin was gently sipping tea.

At that moment, Li Lianhua rushed into the room, reporting excitedly, "Venerable Qin! Venerable Qin! Great news! Great news~"

"Really? Did they actually kill her?!" Venerable Qin was delighted.

"Was it false?!" Li Lianhua bent forward laughing.

Venerable Qin clenched her left fist and smacked it into her right palm, "Heh! And I thought we’d have to ask the Westerners for help!"

But her smile quickly vanished, turning to slight annoyance, "That’s to be expected! That bitch Zhao Ling always acting so arrogant. So, the stuff the Foreign Affairs Bureau came up with is genuinely powerful..."

"Venerable Qin... it really wasn’t by rockets or cannons, you know!" Li Lianhua hastily added.

"Oh? Then how? What? Did Loliya send someone to help?" Venerable Qin asked.

Li Lianhua shook his head, holding back his words.

Venerable Qin raised her little hand and slapped his back, pouting as she said, "Speak up! Don’t keep hiding things!"

"The military reported that the satellite captured Wei Tianyang..." Li Lianhua cautiously said.

Venerable Qin’s expression instantly turned unsightly.

She stood up and paced back and forth in the room then, after a while, looked up and asked, "Is he still in Fengrao City?"

"After he killed Zhao Ling, he left," Li Lianhua said.

"He left..." Venerable Qin still seemed uneasy.

"He hasn’t shown himself for many years, and there’s no contact from the United Council. In this humble servant’s opinion... there’s no need for concern," Li Lianhua said.

"If he came to seek revenge against Zhao Ling..." Venerable Qin said.

"Zhao Ling brought this upon himself. With his great powers, he surely understands this," Li Lianhua said.

Venerable Qin’s eyes flickered as the corners of her mouth gradually lifted.

Seeing that Venerable Qin’s attitude was still wavering, Lin Lianhua suddenly flapped her sleeves loudly, knelt on one knee, placed one hand on her hip, the other touching the ground, bowed her head and said loudly,

"Now that the Emperor Zhao Ling is dead, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day! Looking at the current situation within the country, only Venerable Qin is fit for the responsibility of Emperor! Please, Venerable Qin, consider the dynasty of Dayin and the millions of Yin people!"

Venerable Qin burst into laughter, helping Li Lianhua to his feet, seeing his righteous demeanor.

"Venerable Qin!" Li Lianhua bowed.

"Ah! After all these years, with so many people coming and going, it is still you who are most caring! Most loyal! Zhao Ling lost all the decrees of our ancestors! Now, we can slowly start collecting them one by one!" Venerable Qin declared authoritatively.

Meanwhile, in Heisai State.

At the top floor of Pei Guode Hotel, Zhao Ling had been cleaned up.

Rada Gan brought a doctor from the black market to stitch up her wounds, inserted a feeding tube in her mouth, and her broken body was wrapped up like a zongzi.

Wei Tianyang cradled her, gently placing her between a small pile of soft blankets and feather pillows by the window, perfectly positioned to see a sliver of the sky through the window.

Baphomet lay nearby, silently watching.

Zhao Ling’s eyes were lifeless as she stared at the ceiling; she no longer spoke, as if all her beliefs and dignity had been burnt to ashes, leaving only a lingering, broken body.

Wei Tianyang tenderly stroked her cheek, touching her fragmented body, trying to bring her physical pleasure, but she showed no reaction.

"She is already dead on a subjective level," Baphomet said.

"Her heart beats with mine; no one can hurt her anymore," Wei Tianyang said.

"What she needs is not what you can give," Baphomet shook his head.

Wei Tianyang also sighed; at this moment, he felt an odd sensation behind him.

He turned his head and saw Yaha standing in the doorway, half his face visible, staring at him.

"Yaha?" Wei Tianyang said.

"This is all your fault, Yishenmali," Yaha said.
