456: Chapter 0433 – The Power of a Father’s Love!_1 456: Chapter 0433 – The Power of a Father’s Love!_1 The reason Lv Zhong chose to assist Xu Xinyan was threefold.

Firstly, he recognized Xu Xinyan’s exceptional aptitude – she was naturally attuned to both light and fire.

Secondly, Lv Zhong harbored intentions of nurturing a proxy within this apocalyptic world.

Lastly, he was moved by compassion, the desire to do something for humanity in this dire world.

Setting up a role model could bring boundless hope to human beings in the post-apocalyptic world.

As long as hope remains, it could stimulate the infinite potential of humans.

Furthermore, Xu Xinyan was beautiful, and as she grew stronger, she would become even more attractive!

Being both a prized goddess and a peerless powerhouse, the positive energy she could bring to humanity definitely surpassed all imaginations.

Even if the Lv Zhong’s Insect Army successfully quelled the world’s disasters, it may not garner human gratitude.

However, if a highly influential figure emerged among humans, it could create an immeasurable impact in their hearts.

*************

A middle-aged man with a child in his arms fell to the ground in terror.

The intense pain almost made him pass out.

A large amount of fresh blood spurted from his right leg, which was gripped by a massive black Armored Beetle.

Sweat trickled down his face, but his expression was not one of pain – it held profound regret and an intense affection.

Looking at the child whom he was desperately protecting, his heart was filled with helplessness, grief, and extreme anger.

“Crack…”

The giant Armored Beetle, with its gaping maw, snapped off the man’s right leg with its formidable biting strength.

Moreover, the Armored Beetle continued to chew on the man’s right leg, spewing fresh blood around and causing his leg bones to creak.

Mockingly looking at the middle-aged man, a hint of disdain and ridicule seemed to flash in the Armored Beetle’s compound eyes as it continued chewing the man’s leg and intimidating him.

If the middle-aged man attempted to flee, it would bite off his head in a flash.

About two minutes later, the Armored Beetle had devoured the man’s right leg, then turned its murderous, bloodthirsty compound eyes on the man and the child in his arms.

A sense of boundless despair welled up in the middle-aged man’s heart.

He regretted not being a strong warrior, regretted not having the power to protect his child.

Even in his boundless despair, the middle-aged man dared not do anything, dared not move.

“Why?

Why must heaven bring down such catastrophe?” A silent scream echoed in the man’s mind.

“Chirp…”

In the face of the man’s extreme despair, the giant Armored Beetle advanced to within a meter of him.

He could even smell the putrid stench from its mouthparts.

“Am I going to die?” murmured the middle-aged man, glancing at the one-year-old child in his arms, his eyes filled with deep affection and reluctance to part.

Next, a resolute look appeared on his face.

If he does not burst forth in his silence, he will perish in his silence!

If he’s going to die anyway, might as well unleash all the anger in his heart and vent the pent-up frustrations and resentment accumulated since the end of the world!

With these thoughts in mind, the middle-aged man suddenly made an astonishing decision: He gently put his child aside and stretched out his left hand towards the Armored Beetle’s jaws.

Seeing this, the Armored Beetle hesitated for a moment before decisively biting down on the man’s left hand.

An intense wave of pain surged, yet the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and endured it.

In his eyes, however, flashed a hint of mad killing intent.

At some point, a high-quality steel dagger had appeared in his right hand.

The potential of life suddenly erupted!

The middle-aged man suddenly unleashed a strength and potential he had never been able to reach before!

In an instant, the high-quality steel dagger in the man’s right hand, with unparalleled precision and an unparalleled force, fiercely stabbed into one compound eye of the Armored Beetle.

“Roar——”

The black Armored Beetle shrieked in pain.

It never expected that the seemingly weak human in front of it would dare to resist, let alone land a fatal blow when it was at its most complacent.

Infinite fury rose within the Armored Beetle.

It let go of the man’s left arm, opened its mouthparts, and lunged towards the man’s head.

However, amidst extreme despair and anger, the middle-aged man erupted with decades’ worth of hidden potential and combat experience.

His right hand, gripping the dagger, launched an even stronger attack, thrusting the dagger once more into the beetle.

Stabbing from the eye into the brain, this was a severe, fatal hit!

“Roar…”

The Armored Beetle howled once more, but this blow had robbed it of most of its strength.

However, even a starved camel is still bigger than a horse!

Not only had the man’s right leg been bitten off, but his left hand had also met the same fate.

The reason he was able to make such a powerful attack in his final moment of life was due to his boundless love for his child, which enabled him to burn up his own life and accomplish this extraordinary turnaround!

However, his strength was fleeting due to his severe injuries and massive blood loss.

Additionally, the Armored Beetle had a strong vitality.

Most importantly, the dagger in the man’s right hand was too short.

Had it been six to seven centimeters longer, he could have instantly killed the Armored Beetle.

Nevertheless, even though this impact was severe, the Armored Beetle wouldn’t live much longer.

Even if it killed the middle-aged man with a last-ditch, retaliatory strike, he would feel it was worth it.

“Roar…” With a painful scream, the Armored Beetle suddenly lifted one of its steel-like forelegs and viciously pierced the man’s chest.

The frenzied Armored Beetle lifted the middle-aged man with its forelegs, preparing to throw him high into the sky and strike him down with great force.

The man’s right hand still tightly gripped the dagger, and during this whole process, he managed to pull out the dagger along with an eyeball the size of a fist.

“Just a little bit more, just a little bit more…” Severely injured by the Armored Beetle’s retaliatory attack, the middle-aged man was filled with regret.

“Ah, my child, Daddy really doesn’t want to leave you…”

Despite his regret and reluctance, the middle-aged man’s life force gradually weakened.

He was no longer able to protect his child…

“Swoosh——”

A gleam of silver light flashed across the dark sky, piercing straight through the Giant Armored Beetle’s head.

Following that, the silver flash swiftly spun in mid-air before it charged at the foreleg of the gigantic Armored Beetle that had pierced the middle-aged man’s chest.

Suddenly, the insect’s leg, as robust as pure steel, was severed effortlessly.

Just as the middle-aged man was about to fall to the ground, a powerful hand caught him.

At that moment, the middle-aged man noticed a pair of golden boys and girls, like celestial beings descending from the Immortal World, appearing before him.

The one supporting him was nothing more than a young man in his early twenties.

Evolvers!

These two were definitely powerful Evolvers!

Excitement flashed in the middle-aged man’s eyes.

If he could entrust his child to these two…

Thinking of this, the weak man hurriedly looked towards his child.

This…

This was the love of parents for their child!

“Child…

My child…” The middle-aged man calls out weakly.

Understanding what the middle-aged man wanted to do, Xu Xinyan walked over to the child, bent down, and picked him up.

The child, quite curious, blinked his pretty eyes at Xu Xinyan, showing no signs of fear.

“Brother Zhong, this child…”

As she held the child up to Lv Zhong, Xu Xinyan’s eyes welled up.

She looked at Lv Zhong, pausing mid-sentence.

“He should take care of his own child!” Lv Zhong said indifferently.

After saying this, he glanced at Xu Xinyan, his aura proud and dominant.

“As long as I’m here, he won’t die!”

“Oh!” Xu Xinyan obediently responded.

**********************

Inside a nearby house, Lv Zhong was treating the middle-aged man, while Xu Xinyan shook with fear as she stood guard outside the door.

Lv Zhong didn’t really need her to stand guard.

However, to train her, he dispatched her to witness the cruelty of the apocalypse firsthand.

Glancing back, Xu Xinyan was somewhat curious about how Lv Zhong was going to cure a dying man.

After all, the man’s left hand and right leg were severed and there was even a large hole near his heart.

Even before the end of the world, such a patient would be difficult to save.

However, Xu Xinyan no longer had the spare time to ponder how Lv Zhong was going to cure the middle-aged man.

Five zombies were currently charging at her with terrifying roars.

Over seven days, Xu Xinyan had seen countless zombies, but she had only watched them from her house through a telescope and never encountered them personally.

For the first time ever, she was confronting five zombies face to face, her heart tensing up instinctively, almost prompting her to flee into Lv Zhong’s room.

But Lv Zhong had once stated that no one should disturb him while he was treating someone.

Otherwise, not only would the patient die, but even Lv Zhong himself could get into trouble.

Recalling Lv Zhong’s stern expression when he said that, Xu Xinyan forced herself to quell the urge to run.

No matter what, she had to protect Lv Zhong!

For Lv Zhong’s sake, she had to be strong!

In a split second, determination and strength filled Xu Xinyan.

“Roar…”

One of the zombies let out a wolf-like shriek, stretching out its claws and charging towards Xu Xinyan like a bolt of lightning.

Such fast speed!

“First order!

This zombie has evolved!” Xu Xinyan’s heart tightened, her hand gripping the Ancient Tang Dynasty Sword swung down on the zombie’s head.

To truly kill a zombie, you had to destroy its head!

“Bang…”

Wherever the sword went, the charging zombie was killed by Xu Xinyan in an instant.

After personally killing a zombie, Xu Xinyan’s anxiety and discomfort cleared up suddenly.

In that moment, Xu Xinyan’s confidence rose.

The five zombies that had come were all of the First Order Beginner strength, while she was of First Order Peak cultivation.

With this in mind, Xu Xinyan moved forward and cleanly killed the other four zombies with lightning speed.

Suppressing her discomfort and nausea, Xu Xinyan used her sword to open the heads of the five zombies and discovered five red, jelly-like energy chunks.

However, these energy crystals were even softer than the energy crystal from the giant bird and had much less energy.

“So this is what allows humans to evolve.

It seems the prospects for humanity may not be as bleak as imagined!” Shaking slightly, Xu Xinyan collected the five energy crystals, her eyes gaining a touch of liveliness.

“Sss…”

Suddenly, a strange noise reached her ears, and Xu Xinyan quickly turned her head.

Instantly, she felt her scalp tingle.

At this moment, more than a hundred zombies had appeared outside the door of the house, and the strongest zombie was of the Second Order Beginner level.

This zombie was even more powerful than her.

Xu Xinyan gasped, a sense of unease bubbling up in her heart.

She was not worried about her own safety.

However, her “Brother Zhong” was currently at a critical moment of saving the middle-aged man.

If he was disturbed, he could very likely suffer backlash!

After all, Xu Xinyan had watched numerous films and read many novels before the end of the world.

To save a dying man, even the master of martial arts in films might over-exert and be vulnerable to energy backlash!

“What should I do?”

Facing more than a hundred zombies, even including a Second Order zombie, Xu Xinyan’s heart sank to rock bottom.
