Looking at Sumari, who was pierced through the chest by a long spear and pinned firmly to the spatial barrier, barely clinging to life, Ye Chen stepped forward and pulled the spear out.
With the support gone, Sumari collapsed limply to the ground.
Lying on the ground, feeling his life rapidly slipping away, a trace of fear rose in Sumari's heart.
He didn't want to die!
Struggling to lift his head, Sumari looked at A Zhui and Yan, his voice weak: "You can't kill me. I want to see He Xi."
Hearing this, Angel Yan's brow furrowed slightly.
Just then, Ye Chen, hearing Sumari's words, swung his long spear, instantly piercing through Sumari's forehead.
Sumari's words came to an abrupt halt, the light in his eyes fading instantly.
If this guy hadn't mentioned He Xi, Ye Chen had almost forgotten that he had some ambiguous relationship with her.
Thanks to Sumari's reminder, good—Ye Chen was even less inclined to let him live.
Otherwise, who knew what other trouble might arise.
Angel Yan, seeing Ye Chen suddenly kill Sumari, said with some "surprise": "Kid, why did you suddenly kill him? I wanted to hear what else he had to say."
Hearing this, Ye Chen looked at the gossipy Angel Yan and said bluntly: "Isn't He Xi the Heavenly Base King of your Angel Civilization? Knowing too much gossip about a king isn't good for a little angel like you.
So, killing him now is for your own good. You should be thanking me..."
Seeing Ye Chen's expression of "it's all for you, you can't handle too much gossip," Angel Yan couldn't help but laugh: "Heh, I don't believe you for a second. You're just worried he might have some connection with the Heavenly Base King and survive."
Exposed by Angel Yan, Ye Chen didn't care and instead asked: "What? Do you want this celestial scum to live?"
"Celestial scum—everyone wants them dead!"
"Then it's settled. Since we both don't want him alive, we can't let him talk. Otherwise, I doubt you'd be able to do it."
Hearing this, Angel Yan opened her mouth but fell silent.
Because Ye Chen was right. She knew her own nature.
If Sumari really had some connection with He Xi, given her personality, she wouldn't have killed him on the spot.
Once the matter involved the Heavenly Base King, she would have to bring Sumari back for the Heavenly Base King to decide.
That was also why Angel Yan had done nothing when Ye Chen acted. Otherwise, with her strength, stopping Ye Chen from killing Sumari would have been easy.
But she made no move at all. The meaning behind that was obvious.
Seeing Angel Yan's silence, Ye Chen smiled inwardly and didn't bother exposing her little scheme.
Did she really think he hadn't noticed? When Yan heard Sumari mention He Xi, her brow instinctively furrowed. Clearly, she didn't want Sumari to continue speaking.
Silver Chain City.
The figures of Ye Chen and the other two descended from the sky. After killing Sumari, they had rushed over quickly.
Looking at the city's scene of corpses strewn everywhere, the sounds of sorrowful weeping, and the medical rescue personnel coming and going.
"Letting that bastard die so easily was too good for him."
Looking at the scene below, Ye Chen's killing intent boiled. This was the first time since founding his empire that someone had slaughtered his people in a city.
The people below, seeing Ye Chen among the three descending from the sky, hurriedly tried to bow.
Seeing this, Ye Chen waved his hand, using the Star Gravitation to stop their bows: "Focus on rescuing first."
Then Ye Chen walked through the crowd, observing the dead. Most had been instantly killed by flying blades piercing through vital organs like the chest.
Some, though their internal organs were damaged, hadn't died on the spot, only falling into a temporary state of suspended animation.
But those in suspended animation would die if not treated in time, and even if saved, most would be crippled.
Summoning a medical worker, Ye Chen exchanged a few bottles of Life Water from the Devouring Starry Sky system and said: "Find a bucket, pour these bottles in, and give it to those in suspended animation."
"Understood!"
Hearing this, the medical worker respectfully took the bottles with both hands, as if receiving a treasure.
Then he found a clean bucket, filled it with water, and began diluting the Life Water.
The Life Water was a vibrant emerald green, full of vitality. It was a technological creation from the Devouring Starry Sky world, capable of regenerating severed limbs.
It was an excellent healing item.
As the Life Water was poured into the bucket, a wave of life energy spread out. The nearby medical workers, breathing it in, felt their spirits lift and their bodies relax.
Old scars from past injuries quickly faded under this aura.
After handing the bottles of Life Water to the medical worker, Ye Chen used Star Gravitation to locate all those in suspended animation.
In an instant, among the dense corpses of Feng Hong District, one "corpse" after another flew into the air, rapidly converging toward Ye Chen's position.
Seeing this, the families of the deceased, spotting their loved ones among the floating bodies, had a glimmer of hope rise in their eyes.
Especially those whose relatives had been declared unsalvageable by the medical staff—hope rekindled in their hearts.
Gently lowering those in suspended animation, Ye Chen looked at the hopeful eyes of the surrounding families, sighed softly, and then reached out with a grab.
The already diluted Life Water not far away flew out, then split into clusters, which Ye Chen infused into the bodies of these feigned-dead individuals.
After his auxiliary refinement, the effects of the Life Water quickly took hold within their bodies, as surging vitality merged into the damaged organs and began rapid repair.
Finally, the remaining vitality integrated into other parts of the body, making it foreseeable that these people's lifespans would increase by a notch.
This was because the Life Water was the raw material for the Longevity Liquid No. 3 now used by the Yanhuang Empire.
Ever since Ye Chen had concocted the diluted gene repair fluid over a hundred years ago and named it Longevity Liquid to reward those with merit, he had later exchanged several items with different effects from the system.
Based on the degree of lifespan extension, Ye Chen categorized these potions as the Longevity Liquid series, specifically used for rewards.
In the distance, Angel Yan stood on a rooftop, glanced at the diluted Life Water in the bucket, secretly drew a drop, and began to analyze its composition.
Ten seconds later.
"It can only match 99.9% of the elemental substances—there's one element that can't be detected?!"
