New King

Sword Demon Ato stared at Angel Yan, his eyes blazing with hatred. A thousand years ago, Angel Yan had led the Left-Wing Guard in slaughtering his family, friends, and comrades. Many of his comrades had never been resurrected.

"Hey, Ato, keep it simple and finish her with one slash, then go back. If you try anything funny, I'll show you why flowers are black." The Sacred Domain opened, and Su Xinghe looked at Ato with a kindly smile. If Ato dared to do anything out of line, he'd cut him down.

"You could do that yourself, so why do you have to make Ato stab me? Do you have nothing better to do, or did I offend you? That doesn't make sense either. We've barely even met." Angel Yan suddenly realized that Su Xinghe could handle something as simple as stabbing her himself.

"Hey, so you can think after all. Took you long enough to figure it out. Forget it. Ato, go back and tell Liangbing to do as she sees fit. Whether it's Mars or somewhere beyond Earth, I want her to keep a low profile for now."

Ato glanced at Su Xinghe. Not long ago, his queen had told him that if he ever ran into Su Xinghe, he should flee immediately. Facing him was much the same as facing Holy Keisha.

He really wanted to test out the power he'd gained after upgrading, but when faced with a powerhouse like this, he ultimately chose to run. He slipped through a wormhole faster than anyone.

[Initiate Celestial Book Database. Construct Solar Flare Furnace!]

Angel Yan looked at the Solar Flare Furnace with curiosity. She knew it was Lieyang technology, but this was her first time seeing one.

[Detected that you have been struck by a Solar Flare. Activating Sub-biological Engine. Why did Holy Keisha equip you and Zhixin with Sub-biological Engines?]

"Angel Civilization is still developing. Enixide hasn't grown up yet, so Zhixin and I need to ensure the growth of both the Angel Civilization and Enixide during this period."

[Correct. Even with the Sub-biological Engine activated, you cannot escape the Solar Flare Furnace. If you have not escaped within three minutes of activation, you are expected to lose your life.]

"Go ahead and activate it. She's one of us, so it's fine."

[Activation complete. Welcome, Left-Wing Guardian Angel Yan.]

"Done. Do you have enough energy? If so, inherit Keisha's armory and the Holy Knowledge Treasury, and get ready for the coronation."

As soon as Angel Yan activated the Void Engine, Su Xinghe removed the Solar Flare Furnace. If she kept burning any longer, Angel Yan would really turn into roast goose.

"I have enough energy to inherit Holy Keisha's Knowledge Treasury, but I can't do it here."

"Although Queen Keisha made some special arrangements for Enixide, under the current circumstances, she is still the Angel Civilization's heir. I can't show myself in front of her for now."

"Right. We need to leave Freyzer first, then begin the inheritance process."

Angel Yan shot into the sky. She'd been thrust into the role of queen and had no choice but to accept it. Now she had to hurry back and issue emergency orders for the other angels to prepare their defenses.

She didn't know when the Triangular Bodies and the Scum Hua Ye would return, but Su Xinghe had indeed told her that after Holy Keisha's fall, these people would emerge.

She didn't know how he knew all this, but she figured Holy Keisha must have told him.

[Reconnecting to the Angel Communication Network. Inheriting Holy Keisha's permissions.]

[I am the former Holy Left Wing Guard, Angel Yan. Now that Holy Keisha has fallen, I will urgently assume Queen Holy Keisha's position and become the new leader of the Angel Civilization.]

[Chase, Moy, from this moment on, you will serve as my left and right guards. Angels on Earth, assemble immediately and return to the Angel Civilization.]

"Xinyue Squad and Guard Legion, you don't need to move. Stay on Earth and wait for me. I'll be back soon. Before long, you'll face the enemy from ten thousand years ago."

"The other angels may return to the Angel Civilization with the new Angel Queen, Angel Yan, and assist Skybase King Hexi in defending Heavenly City."

On Earth, Angel Leng stood in the back garden. When Holy Keisha had fallen, she'd wanted to take her legion to help, but Xinyue had stopped her, saying only that it was a plan they'd arranged in advance.

Now she was saying they'd soon face the enemy from ten thousand years ago, which left Angel Leng even more bewildered. After all, she wasn't Angel Yan and had no access to many of the Angel Civilization's secrets.

"From ten thousand years ago? At this point, it has to be either the Triangular Bodies or Hua Ye. You young ones have never faced enemies like them."

"It's a shame about Liangbing. If she came back, everything would be much easier to handle."

"I, King Hexi, can hold Heavenly City alone. I can suppress the Triangular Bodies and Hua Ye, but it would still be a lot of pressure. His Highness the Prince is backed by the Shenhe Civilization, so it's difficult for him to get involved in the Angel Internal conflict. And the Great Clock is in Death God Karl's hands. Things will be difficult in the future, so be prepared."

"Hua Ye!" Angel Leng finally understood. The enemy from ten thousand years ago was none other than Hua Ye, the King of the Heavenly Palace. Though shocked, she soon thought of a problem: Hua Ye had been suppressed by Queen Holy Keisha for ten thousand years, and his technology hadn't advanced much. Most of his forces were still First Generation Super Soldiers. Without Death God Karl's help, they couldn't defeat the Angel Civilization as it stood now.

And since Hua Ye was willing to help Morgana, he'd certainly help Hua Ye. Anyone could see that.

"Xinyue, what do we do now? Stay on Earth?"

"Only a few Taotie Civilization fleets remain in Huaxia. We've helped take down two waves, and the remaining Xiong Bing Lian can handle them. Otherwise, once His Highness the Prince returns, we could ask to go back to Angel City and prepare for battle."

"Don't rush. Skybase King, His Highness the Prince, and Queen Holy Keisha know a lot that we don't. We'll wait here for His Highness the Prince to return and see what he plans to do next. Queen Holy Keisha changed Angel Yan's order of succession, so Heavenly City's defenses will be stronger than originally planned. At this stage, even without Queen Holy Keisha, our Angel Civilization is still the strongest civilization in the universe." Xinyue reassured Angel Leng. As a veteran, she knew that the more tense things got, the less they should act rashly. Their queen hadn't moved yet, so they couldn't know what the next step was.

"Well said. For a long time to come, Hua Ye and the Triangular Bodies will be the most powerful enemies we face. Hua Ye is the first test subject in Death God Karl's research into the Void."

"But the Angel Civilization has its own advantages. Used properly, the nine defensive systems can wipe out a million enemy troops. All we have to do now is wait here on Earth. Liangbing is here, and given Hua Ye's nature, he'll definitely come looking for her first."
