"Compared to the previous War Chief Hoolay, my strength is not that great. But my brain is countless times better than that captured guy. This guy's swordsmanship is no less than that woman's back then, but now he's still being subdued by my poison."

As he thought this, a grin spread across his face, making his already ferocious wolf-like features even more terrifying.

While Ji Yuan was engaged in battle with Angqin, Buli Ren's Beast-ships, after suffering heavy casualties, rushed to the Celestial Ark Alliance's Star Skiff and engaged in a brutal close-quarters battle with the Star Skiff piloted by the Xianzhou pilots.

These Beast-ships, as expected of warships with their own consciousness, possessed extremely strong close-combat capabilities. From the very beginning of the battle, the Xianzhou were at a disadvantage. It wasn't until the veteran aviators on the Star Skiff adapted to fighting the Beast-ships that the battle situation stabilized somewhat.

However, the number of people on Buli Ren's side was simply too large, and soon those elite flying warriors were besieged by Beast-ships that outnumbered them by more than ten times.

Even the ship that Fu Xuan was on was being attacked by the Beast-ships.

Fortunately, although Qingni lacked battlefield experience, her talent was truly exceptional. She piloted the Star Skiff, weaving back and forth among the Beast-ships, giving them almost no chance to make contact with Star Skiff.

"Well done!"

Fu Xuan clenched his fist and said excitedly.

However, she glanced at the current battle situation and gave the next order with a serious expression.

"Next, everyone retreat towards Flowing Cloud Ferry. The Cloud Knights below is ready."

She then ordered the remaining Star Skiff to begin a slow retreat. The novice pilots retreated first, followed by the experienced veterans, and they retreated steadily towards Flowing Cloud Ferry.

Seeing that they could enter Flowing Cloud Ferry, the Beast-ships were not in a hurry to act.

Fu Xuan wanted to use the Cloud Knights for defense, and the Buli Ren did the same. They were Buli Ren Beast-ships, completely detached from the battlefield. They could only passively wait, which was very unpleasant for them.

It would be better to go to the ground and have a good fight with the Cloud Knights.

Before descending to Flowing Cloud Ferry, Fu Xuan looked at Ji Yuan, who was Buli Ren, and silently prayed for him.

Ji Yuan, you must come back safely.

This time you've returned victorious, and I, I will make you...

Fu Xuan silently recited it in his heart.

The Star Skiff slowly descended onto Flowing Cloud Ferry, followed closely by the Beast-ships. Fu Xuan and the others emerged from the Star Skiff and quickly arrived at the rear of the Cloud Knights formation.

Inside the Beast-ships, the Buli Ren had no intention of letting the flying warriors go. Before the Beast-ships even landed, they jumped out of the air to attack the flying warriors. Several of the slower flying warriors were about to be caught by the Buli Ren.

Just then, an arrow flew through the sky, landing precisely in the midst of the Buli Ren's group. Taking advantage of the explosion, the flying warriors all ran behind the Cloud Knights. Qingni looked up and saw that it was her mother, Yukong, who had just fired the arrow.

Seeing his daughter looking at him, Yukong glared at her fiercely.

Qingni immediately put on a fawning smile.

Qingque walked to Fu Xuan's side and reached out to support her.

"Fu Xuan, we have already arranged for the Cloud Knights to make their deployment. Please rest for a while, and we will hold them off for a bit."

"Yes, I understand."

Fu Xuan nodded.

At this time, the Cloud Knights was already engaged in battle with the Buli Ren.

The Cloud Knights and the Buli Ren had fought countless battles. Which Cloud Knights hadn't lost relatives and friends at the hands of the Buli Ren? When the two sides met, they were like enemies meeting, their eyes filled with hatred. Almost as soon as the battle started, the two sides were locked in a fierce struggle.

At this moment, in the outer battlefield.

Angqin maintained control of the battle with Ji Yuan.

After realizing that Ji Yuan had not noticed his release of poison, he began to try his best to control his fighting style.

I can't let him escape too quickly; I need to capture him and humiliate him severely.

Angqin thought to himself.

On the other side, seeing Angqin do this, Ji Yuan was happy to cooperate. Angqin didn't want him to escape, and Ji Yuan didn't want Angqin to escape either.

At the start of the battle, it would be quite good to take down the enemy's leader first.

After fighting for a while, Angqin felt that it was about time.

He swung his claws to force Ji Yuan away, then grinned and said, "Kid, you're finished."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, you've already fallen for my..." Angqin was about to speak sarcastically, but at that moment he suddenly felt an extreme fear of Ji Yuan in front of him. He couldn't lift his hands at all, and his legs were trembling with fear.

Isn't this his own "Wolf Venom" effect?

How could this happen to me?

Buli Ren should be immune to Wolf Venom.

Angqin was greatly shocked.

Seeing that Angqin had lost all will to fight, Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile and explain, "I told you, I also plan to use you as material for biological experiments. You don't think I'm lying, do you? My teachers, besides the previous generation of Luofu Sword Champion Jingliu, also include Ms. Ruan Mei from the Genius Society. By the way, I'm also a member of the Genius Society."

They received Angqin's "Wolf Venom," then made a slight modification to make it a poison specifically effective against Buli Ren. They then used it to poison Angqin, leaving him no chance to escape.

Angqin was completely stunned.

Who exactly is this kid?!

No, he has to escape.

At the very least, you should stay with your main group.

Despite her severe physical discomfort, Angqin tried to appear ready to perish together with Ji Yuan in order to facilitate her escape.

Just then, a streak of flames came rapidly from a distance.

This is...

Before Angqin could even think, a colossal river of fire that stretched across the universe separated him from the other Buli Ren.

Amidst this river of flames, a tall mecha figure appeared.

"Ji Yuan, am I not late?"

Chapter 227 The Living Planet [Rahu] Arrives! [First Update]

"You're not late, you've come at the right time. This leader of the Buli Ren was just about to escape, and your arrival has made it impossible for him to escape now."

When Ji Yuan saw Sam, oh, Firefly, coming over, a happy expression involuntarily appeared on his face.

"Fine, if this guy runs away, I'll change my surname to yours."

"Firefly said confidently."

"Huh? Oh, oh..."

Ji Yuan was taken aback by Firefly's words at first, then quickly realized what she meant. Firefly wasn't from the Celestial Ark Native. In the Celestial Ark Native, wives don't need to change their surnames after marriage, whereas in many other places, wives do. That's what Firefly meant.

Angqin listened to Ji Yuan and Firefly's flirtatious banter from the side, feeling no anger at all, but rather an overwhelming sense of fear.

Where did this mech come from? And its strength is at the level of Emanator. Let alone being poisoned now, even if I were at my full strength, I might not be a match for this guy.

Because of the poisoning, Zhan Angqin with fear and dared not fight Sam. He looked into the distance, wanting to escape quickly. He moved swiftly, heading towards the distance.

Seeing his actions, Firefly snorted disdainfully.

"Trying to escape? You're dreaming."

As she spoke, she brought her right hand together in a chopstick shape and swung it at the fleeing Angqin. The strike transformed into a blade of fiery energy. Before Angqin had even flown a few kilometers, the flames pierced through his body.

The scorching flames engulfed Angqin's body, instantly extinguishing the last vestiges of his resistance. Firefly didn't stop; she reached out, forming a giant energy hand that flew to grab Angqin and pulled him back.

Seeing that Firefly had pulled Angqin over, Ji Yuan raised his long sword and thrust it at Angqin's chest.

The longsword pierced Angqin's body, and then Ji Yuan infused it with ice-attribute energy. In an instant, this leader of the Buli Ren was killed by Ji Yuan.

Angqin, who possessed the power of Path of Abundance, Buli Ren not so easily killed by Ji Yuan. However, Ji Yuan had a genuine Emanator of Abundance by his side. When Firefly captured Angqin, she had already used her immortal power to sever Angqin's Abundance. With Ji Yuan's follow-up sword strike, Angqin was naturally killed instantly.

Ji Yuan then beheaded Angqin and put the head away.

Taking advantage of the moment, Firefly removed her helmet from the Sam mech, revealing her strikingly beautiful face. Below was the steel mech, and above it was a pretty young girl; the contrast created a unique and captivating aesthetic.

Seeing that he had finished, Firefly stroked her chin and asked him, "The battle here is over. If we take the head of Buli Ren back, can we resolve things here?"

"It might be possible for ordinary forces, but these Buli Ren are all lunatics, so it's hard to say. Moreover..." Ji Yuan then revealed a cruel smile, "We should also take this opportunity to kill more Abundance Followers."

The Celestial Ark Native have always had only one goal: to eliminate any Abundance Fiends from the universe. Believing in the Path of Abundance is fine, but if you plunder other races for the sake of longevity through the Path of Abundance, then in the eyes of the Celestial Ark Native, there is only certain death. Ji Yuan has no intention of letting any of the Abundance Followers who have come this time go.

Ji Yuan said to Firefly, "Let's tell the Cloud Knights this good news first to boost their morale. Also, Firefly, we plan to use the Imaginary Collapse Pulse attack later. If there is Buli Ren attack before it is launched, help us hold that position."

Upon hearing about this trivial matter, Firefly immediately patted the steel chest of the mecha and assured it:

"That's for sure. Don't worry, with me here, no one can harm the Imaginary Pulse Collapse device."

Having finished their discussion, Ji Yuan and Firefly, carrying Angqin's head, quickly headed towards the Luofu Starfaring Vessel. Firefly was incredibly fast; after Sam's steel hand grabbed Ji Yuan's hand, it transformed into a streak of fire and arrived outside the Luofu Starfaring Vessel. However, once outside the Xianzhou, the two of them stopped.

At this moment, the outer perimeter of the Luofu Starfaring Vessel was already blocked by the army of Buli Ren, and Ji Yuan and Firefly could only see a huge wall of Beast-ships.

Seeing this, Firefly turned to Ji Yuan and said somewhat boastfully, "Ji Yuan, come here, watch me take care of these guys."

"Uh-huh."

Ji Yuan waited on the sidelines to see how Firefly would perform.

With one hand still gripping Ji Yuan, Firefly Ying extended the other towards the Beast-ships, gathering flames from Zhang Xin. After a few seconds of charging, a sea of flames erupted towards the Beast-ships. In the blink of an eye, the raging fire reduced the Buli Ren Beast-ships to ashes.

A huge gap appeared in the Beast-ships. Seeing this, Firefly laughed and pulled Ji Yuan into the Luofu Starfaring Vessel. As they rushed into the Luofu Starfaring Vessel, Buli Ren outside couldn't react at all and could only watch as Ji Yuan and Firefly rushed in.

The two descended from the sky and arrived at Flowing Cloud Ferry. The once bustling port had now become a battlefield of carnage. The Cloud Knights of Luofu and the Buli Ren were locked in combat, and the corpses of both Cloud Knights and Buli Ren could be seen everywhere in Flowing Cloud Ferry. However, upon closer observation, Ji Yuan discovered that the number of Buli Ren who had fallen on the battlefield was significantly smaller than that of the Cloud Knights.

Clearly, Fu Xuan's command played a significant role on the battlefield of Flowing Cloud Ferry.

Ignoring the battlefield for the time being, Ji Yuan said to Firefly, "Firefly, I have already had someone prepare the Imaginary Pulse Collapse device for launch. You go and keep watch over there for a while. I'll go check on the front lines."

"Um."

Ji Yuan and Firefly parted ways. Ji Yuan gave the map to Firefly, so Firefly could find the place directly.

Ji Yuan rushed to Fu Xuan's side. Beside Fu Xuan were Yanqing, Sushang, and other members of the Cloud Knights, as well as Xueyi, a member of the Ten-Lords Commission. Ji Yuan scanned the surroundings and could see Xueyi's younger sister, Xueyi Hanya, secretly protecting her in a corner.

"Ji Yuan, it's so good that you're alright."

Seeing Ji Yuan return, Fu Xuan visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation was critical just now, forcing them to retreat to Flowing Cloud Ferry. Ji Yuan, who was outside Flowing Cloud Ferry, was in great danger. Now that he saw Ji Yuan return safely, Fu Xuan was clearly relieved.

"Not only did they return safely." Upon hearing Fu Xuan's words, Ji Yuan took out the head of Angqin's Buli Ren, Ang Qin, from his stored items. "Lord Diviner, I have already severed the head of Bu Liren's Buli Ren, Angqin."

"What!?"

Fu Xuan, Qingque, and Yanqing were utterly shocked.

How did they manage to get Buli Ren's head so easily?

This leader is too easy to kill.

The previous war chief Hoolay, had only been in the Prison of Deep Seclusion for a short time, and now the new war chief is gone.

Sushang asked curiously, "Brother, how did you do that?"

Fu Xuan also agreed, "Yes, although Buli Ren's leader is not the Emanator of Abundance, the Abundance Power within him is quite abundant. Killing him will not be an easy task."

"Yes..." Ji Yuan nodded, and then roughly recounted his experience fighting Angqin Fu Xuan and the others.

When they heard that Angqin actually planned to use biological toxins to poison Ji Yuan, Fu Xuan and the others showed an extremely speechless expression.

Sushang couldn't help but say, "I suddenly feel like I'm actually quite smart."

When Ji Yuan later mentioned that the appearance of Firefly had also extinguished Angqin's last hope, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

Fu Xuan then asked Ji Yuan, "No wonder. By the way, Ji Yuan, where is Lady Firefly?"

Unless there is an adversarial relationship, one should try to maintain some respect for those at the rank of Emanator.

Ji Yuan replied, "I had already arranged for the Imaginary Collapse Pulse to be assembled, but I was worried that Buli Ren attack over there, so I asked Firefly to keep an eye on that area for me."

Hearing Ji Yuan's arrangement, Fu Xuan said speechlessly, "Only someone like you could casually order around an Emanator like this."

Even if Firefly's Emanator ability was created by Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei working together, it still seems a bit outrageous.
