“Be still . ” Shen released his hand, which was holding Adam, and his right foot stepped forward .

It was clearly just one step . And yet, his figure instantly disappeared . In the next instant, both he and Adam had reappeared far ahead .

One step . In merely one step, he had covered one tenth of the length of the jade white passageway .

Tian Lie stared with widened eyes into the distance as he focused on the small and near imperceptible figure that was far away from them . The figure gradually increased in size before finally appearing before the palace gate .

Earlier, Zero had flown the three of them over at high speed in order to make it through the jade white passageway and arrive before the gate of the Longevity Palace .

But Shen… … he had only taken 10 steps .

Just 10 steps!

Even after Shen had stepped into the Longevity Palace, Nicole remained stuck in mid-air .

“As expected, you came . I failed to make it in time . I was just a little bit off,” said Zero calmly as he observed the incoming Shen .

Despite the crestfallen nature of his words, no emotions could be detected within Zero’s voice .

“No one may take that which belongs to me . ” Shen smiled and slowly walked toward the centre of the guard rails .

Without making any other moves on Shen’s part, Nicole’s body suddenly fell to the ground . She had fallen in the opposite direction of her jump .

“Shen!” Earlier, Shen’s power had restricted her body’s ability to move . She could not even open her mouth . After she fell to the ground, Shen retracted the shackles and Nicole quickly jumped up . With a shout, she charged at Shen .



Her Floater instantly covered her entire body and she took on the military Angel form .

“Eh?” Since his arrival, Shen had not bothered to give Nicole even a glance . Only now did he notice Nicole’s military mech armour . “Floating Angel?”

He stretched out his right hand and the several blasts of light that Nicole fired at him were all blocked by a thin layer of golden light, which had appeared a few metres before Shen . As for Nicole, her figure suddenly fell to the ground, incapable of moving again .

“I was wondering how you managed to find someone else . Unexpectedly, you found an Angel . As I recall… … didn’t you send away all the people within Zero City? Those that I did not kill, anyways . ” Shen glanced at Zero, who was standing beside the guard rails .  

“They entered after that,” Zero answered calmly . “Thanks to the two of them, I was able to come up with a plan to stop you from obtaining the authority . Unfortunately, it has failed . ”

“Excellent . You are able to accept the reality of the situation . ” Shen nodded before turning to face Tian Lie . He smiled and said, “It has been a while since our last meeting . Unexpectedly, we would meet here, my friend . ”

“I am here for you . ” Tian Lie grinned . “Still, there is no need to thank me . ”

“For me? No need to thank you?” Shen was slightly taken aback .

“If not for your sake, why would I try everything to get into this damned place?”  Tian Lie reached out with his hand to rub his bald head . “Back then, you said that if you ever encounter a problem you cannot resolve, you want me to go to that Romania instance dungeon and find help . Although those two… … fellows weren’t willing to come out, they did give me a way to enter Zero City . ”

Hearing Tian Lie’s words, Shen’s brows furrowed lightly . However, they quickly returned to their normal state . Then, he smiled and said, “How unexpected, you still remember that . Getting the method to enter Zero City from those two fellows was probably not easy . ”

“What else can I do? You have disappeared for so long now . Do you know what has happened to Thorned Flower Guild?” Tian Lie rolled his eyes . “It’s becoming a dog-eat-dog situation as all of them wants to seize your position . Their fight is so horrible, you can practically see brain matter scattered all over . Although I am no longer a member of Thorned Flower Guild, I am at least still your friend . If I had found out that you had died, I could just wipe my hands off these matters . However, your state was unknown… … thus, I had to come over and check it out . ”

“Thorned Flower Guild?” Shen’s face broke into a smile . “Something like that… for the present me, they are no longer important . Let them do whatever they want . However…”

His face suddenly took on a serious countenance . “For you to remember my words and come look for me, I am thankful . Thank you, Tian Lie . ”

“Like I said, there is no need to thank me . Besides, from the way I see it…” Tian Lie looked at Adam, whom Shen was now holding onto . “You don’t appear to be in need of help, do you?”

“At present, I no longer need it . However, this act of friendship… I will remember this . ” Shen sent a sincere nod toward Tian Lie .



“Well, if you put it that way, me asking a show of face from you now shouldn’t be too much, right?” Tian Lie laughed out .

“What show of face? Out with it . ” Shen smiled at Tian Lie and nodded his head . “As long as it has nothing to do with the Oddity?”

“Oddity?” Tian Lie glanced at the black dot within the chaotic maelstrom in the centre of the guard rails . “The Hell do I care about that? I am talking about this stupid girl . Although she really wants to kill you… … in this world, the number of people who wants to kill you is probably in the thousands . There is no point in dealing with her . If you really care about my act of friendship, then let her go . ”

“Just a minor Angel . What’s the big deal? Even if you hadn’t asked me, I myself have no interest in killing her . Once I am done with my matters, I will send her out . ” Shen waved his hand carelessly . “Though… … I am feeling curious . How did you end up with her? Did you forget your previous nickname?”

“You know as well, I don’t kill females . ” Tian Lie shrugged . “Besides… … this stupid girl is too weak . Killing her is pointless . ”

“Is that so…” Shen cast a profound gaze at Tian Lie before giving a meaningful smile . “Fine, I won’t probe your private affairs . I believe… … you will not probe mine either, right?”

“Naturally . The only reason I came to Zero City is to confirm whether or not you are still alive and if you need any help . ” Tian Lie spread his hands . “Currently, the first is confirmed . As for the second… … it doesn’t seem like you need my help for anything . Then, if there is nothing else, I will bring this girl with me and leave . ”


“I don’t think you have any way of leaving right now . ” Shen shook his head . “In order to send you two out, I will first need to obtain the Oddity . ”

“There is no need . ” Tian Lie waved his hand carelessly . “That fellow said before . As long as we want to, he will immediately send us out of Zero City . Well, send us out . ”

He snapped his fingers at Zero, who turned to look at Tian Lie before slowly shaking his head . “I refuse . ”

“Re… refuse?” Tian Lie furrowed his brows . “You mean… … you are going back on your words?”

“Yes . ” Zero nodded frankly .

“Why?” Tian Lie’s frown deepened . “Shen is already here . There is no longer any chance for this little girl to obtain your core or Oddity or whatever you call it . As for me… … I never had any intention of snatching it from Shen . What reason do you have for keeping us here?”

“As long as you two remain, there remains a chance to turn the situation around,” replied Zero calmly . “Due to the rules, I am incapable of doing anything to stop him myself . However, by letting you two leave right now, even that last chance of change will not exist . ”

“You brain dead fellow! What chance of change is there?” Tian Lie frowned . Letting his temper get the better of him, he slammed down on the guard rail beside him and said, “This little girl can no longer move . As for me, there is no chance I will go disrupt Shen’s matters . Do you think there is any point in keeping us here besides wasting our time?”



“Maybe… … there is . ”

A voice rang out, reverberating around them .

However, the one who had spoken up was neither Zero nor Shen . Naturally, it was also not Nicole, who was lying on the floor, incapable of moving at all .

The voice contained a slight hoarseness, sounding like an old man . However, a somewhat youthful atmosphere permeated the voice .

Tian Lie’s eyes darted around a few times and he froze .

The voice… … he had heard the voice before .

Not just that, he had heard it only not too long ago .

The owner of the voice was the pale-looking man in the third stage, Chris .

Tian Lie looked around a few times but was incapable of finding him at all . And yet, judging by the voice, he should have been close by .

“Chris? You are not dead yet? What are you doing here?” Even Shen revealed a slight frown . “Where is your master?”

“Master? I am the only one here . Although, it sounded as though you really want to meet him, Sir Shen . ” Chris’ voice drifted about . However, there was no way to figure out where he was .

A flicker flashed across Shen’s face . Ignoring Chris, he quickly walked toward the guard rails while pointing at it with his right hand . A portion of the guard rails was instantly incinerated to reveal a gap, enough for one .

Shen’s next step will bring him into the centre of the guard rails, into that chaotic maelstrom .

However, it was at that moment that Shen’s foot suddenly stopped, seemingly frozen .

There was only one more step between him and the chaotic maelstrom . However, Shen did not continue onward . Instead, he asked with an emotionless face . “He… … what did he give you?”

“Since you stopped moving, you’ve probably guessed it, no?” Chris’ ghostly cackle echoed around Shen . “You can go ahead and try it . Go do what you want to do . Perhaps… … I may not be able to kill you with this . ”

Shen scoffed and did not reply . Instead, his right foot slowly descended .  

This time, however, the expression on his face had changed . It had become like a sapper . One who knew that the area before him was a minefield as he carefully scanned around for danger .

At that moment, a ripple suddenly emerged in front of him .

The thing creating the ripple was not air . Rather, it was space .

The space before Shen suddenly twisted, swelling forward . It was like a needle was being pushed into a tightly woven fabric, causing that part of the fabric to bulge outward .

Seeing the spatial ripple, Shen’s face – for the first time ever – showed an apprehensive expression .

His right foot, which had almost stepped into the chaotic maelstrom, rapidly retracted .

Likewise, Shen’s figure swiftly backed away .

The ripple did not stop expanding . Instead, the rate of expansion grew at a faster rate .

Next, light erupted, covering everyone’s line of sight .

However, unlike the other types of light that they had seen before, this one was… … very slow .

Tian Lie and Nicole could see the tip of the light piercing its way out from the ripple, bit by bit, as it shot toward Shen’s chest .

At the same time, the rate at which Shen was backing away had also become slow .

That was… an arrow . An arrow of light!
