Chapter 108

Li Yang looked up abruptly and saw a scene that left her speechless.

On the dim horizon, grayish-white iron filings flew everywhere as countless mechs charged toward them like wheels.

Directly in front of him was a bright bald head.

This is not an exaggerated metaphor, but an objective adjective.

The bald head was incredibly bright, like a small Sun radiating light.

Li Yang looked closely and realized that there was a golden halo floating behind the bald head.

"What the hell!" Without thinking, Li Yang turned and ran.

The bald man seemed to have seen Li Yang too, and shouted, "Don't come to save me, you have to protect yourself!"

Li Yang: "..." How presumptuous of him! Who would want to save him! The point is, he couldn't save him anyway!

Even if Li Yang had a high Spirit Points and maxed out his mental power again, it would be impossible for him to control so many mechs at once.

There are at least three or four hundred of them.

What did that bald guy do? Did he stir up trouble in the mech nest?!

What surprised Li Yang was that this bald man was actually quite kind.

Instead of running towards Li Yang, he noticed Li Yang and, disregarding his own safety, abruptly changed direction.

This was to avoid leading these mechs towards Li Yang, at the cost of him getting closer to the mechs.

Li Yang gritted her teeth and concentrated all her mental energy.

Originally, she wouldn't have bothered with this inexplicable bald man, but since he changed direction, Li Yang now had a chance to help him.

The bald man turned at just the right angle, exposing the mecha's flank to Li Yang.

Even with Li Yang's high Spirit Points, it's impossible for him to control so many mechs.

But she can control several of them, and because of the curve, she can control several in the center of the mech.

Li Yang was very experienced with these mechs. Once they were under control, they would look for opportunities to self-destruct, or even crash into the mechs next to them.

If a domino effect occurs.

It might save this bald guy's life.

Li Yang acted decisively, holding nothing back and unleashing almost all of her mental energy as she instantly pounced on the ten nearest mechs.

These ten mechs are located in the middle of the unit.

When the Spirit Optical Fiber covered them, the ten mechs visibly paused for a moment.

This was the first time Li Yang had ever tried covering so many mechs; she felt like her Spirit Sea was about to burst.

A cacophony of sounds assaulted the air, accompanied by a profound sense of sorrow and despair; one could even faintly hear someone wailing and weeping.

"Fellow Daoist!" Lianxin's voice steadied Li Yang's composure.

The mechs covered in the psychic beams also began to go berserk.

There were many mechs around them, but now they stopped paying attention to the bald man in front of them and instead rammed into the mechs next to them.

Bang bang bang!

The series of impacts threw the mechs into chaos.

These Masterless Sword were already in a state of frenzy, but the mechs covered by the Spirit Optical Fiber were clearly even more insane.

Li Yang hadn't expected them to be so lethal.

Each mech crashed into about three or four... These ten mechs caused damage to at least sixty or seventy...

The repeated explosions triggered a chain reaction, causing a massive explosion.

Li Yang quickly looked at the bald head in front of her.

The bald man was quick-witted; he had already taken advantage of the chaos to Concealment and disappear.

Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Not daring to be careless, she quietly activated her Hidden Shadow and quickly moved away from the area.

Although many mechs had fallen, the area was also teeming with mechs, so she dared not go and collect the materials.

Li Yang ran straight for several hundred meters before finding a solid wall to lean against, preparing to recover his mental strength.

"Thank you for your help Star Master!" A deep male voice rang out, and the bald man had also arrived.

The golden halo behind his head disappeared, and he no longer resembled a shining Sun.

After the light faded, Li Yang was able to see his face clearly.

He had handsome features, a long neck, and a string of dark purple Buddhist beads hanging from his collarbone. His clothes hung loosely, and he was drenched in sweat from running, his open collar soaked through.

Li Yang recognized him at a glance.

Isn't this the one she saw outside the Treasure Pavilion back then...?

Li Yang called out, "Master Chen?"

Master Chen also saw Li Yang's face clearly. He paused for a moment, clearly remembering something, and said, "You're a student of the Department of the Nature Department?"

Outside the Treasure Pavilion, the Agronomy Department students were observing him, and he was also taking notice of these young people.

He had a good relationship with Song Menjiao had introduced them to him in his Spirit Sea: "These are all newcomers from the Nature Department, all promising talents, extremely outstanding."

Unfortunately, he hadn't Central Capital for a long time and was unaware of the situation there, not even knowing that a Heavenly Fortune Bearer had emerged from the Nature Department.

However, upon hearing that he was a newcomer from the Nature Department, he couldn't help but take a closer look.

After all, 28 years ago, he was a minor student in the Department of the Nature Department.

Later, the Nature Department declined, and he was relegated back to the Pill Department. And then...

After carefully examining the person in front of him and confirming that he was indeed Master Chen, Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless, they are ultimately Huaxia.

It is fate that we met at the Sword Tomb.

Besides, this person isn't a bad person. Just because of his sudden braking and turning, Li Yang is willing to befriend him.

"I am the Star Wielders of the Huaxia Nature Department, my name is Li Yang."

"I am the Star Bearer of the Chinese Elixir Department, my Dharma name is Qingchen."

The name "Qingchen" sounded familiar to Li Yang.

It turns out that "Master Chen" was a respectful title Song Menjiao.

His Buddhist name is Qingchen...

A thought struck Li Yang, and he asked again, "May I ask, Master Chen, what are the two characters in Qingchen?"

Qingchen didn't know why she asked this, but she patiently explained, "It's the 'Qing' in 'sweeping away dust,' and the 'Chen' in 'sweeping away dust.'"

Li Yang: "..."

Saying it only once is enough; there's no need to repeat it twice.

It turned out to be "Qing" instead of "Qing". Li Yang cautiously asked again, "Excuse me, what is your surname?"

Qingchen smiled and said, "I'm an orphan, I don't even know my own surname."

Upon hearing this, Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief. So he was an orphan; it seemed he wasn't Professor Li's son.

At least she didn't have to say "I'm never going to see you again" in this Death Domain.

Chapter 108

The place where the two were hiding was relatively safe. After introducing themselves to each other, they asked the question almost simultaneously.

Why are you being chased by so many monsters?

Why weren't you hunted down by the Masterless Sword?

Both of them were taken aback for a moment.

What Li Yang wanted to know was, how did Qingchen manage to provoke so many mechs?

Qingchen was curious about how Li Yang managed to avoid being chased by so many mechs.

Although neither of them answered the other's question, both had a vague idea of what was going on.

Li Yang realized that Qingchen didn't know how to detonate the mechs, so after arriving in the Death Domain, he was chased around by them. There were a lot of mechs in the Death Domain. At first, only one or two might have attacked him, but once he started running, he dragged a large number of them along like a train.

Qingchen also realized that Li Yang might have a way to avoid the mecha, either because she had some means of hiding or because she had the ability to destroy the mecha.

Logically, the former is more likely, but when Qingchen thought about how this person was Heavenly Fortune Bearer One of the Nature Department, he felt that it might be the latter.

Even though Qingchen had never returned to Central Capital, he knew that the Nature Department had produced a Heavenly Fortune Bearer.

It's highly likely that it's the girl in front of me.

This is Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer...

Even someone at the Fourth Grade Realm should not be underestimated!

Qingchen asked, "Do you have a way to deal with this Masterless Sword?"

The phrase "Masterless Sword" reveals that Qingchen's understanding of the Sword Tomb far surpasses that of others.

Li Yang didn't rush to answer the question, but instead asked in return, "How did you get to the Sword Tomb? The lieutenant general who escorted us Sword Tomb said that Huaxia only has two slots this time."

There's Li Yang, Jiang Yuqing, and logically there shouldn't be a third.

Qingchen smiled and said, "Spots for the Sword Tomb are very hard to come by; you can't get them through normal channels. I sneaked in."

Li Yang asked in surprise, "They can even sneak in?" If she had known there was such a way, she would have brought Lin Zhaoqin and the others in with her!

However, Li Yang soon realized that this method of sneaking in was probably not very reliable.

If it were true, Lin Zhaoqin and other scions of prominent families would surely know.

Sure enough, Qingchen's next sentence was. "Yes, they sneaked in from other Realm Domain."

Li Yang: "..."

Qingchen: "Our Huaxia Realm Domain only has two slots, I can't possibly steal yours, so..."

Li Yang understood and spoke up for him, "Did you steal a spot from another Realm Domain?"

Qingchen: "How can a monk accuse me of robbery? I was merely begging for alms."

Li Yang: "..." You call this begging for alms? You're not going to kill the person you're begging for!

Li Yang paused for a moment, then asked seriously, "Can you tell which Realm Domain you were begging from?"

She explained further, "I want to know in advance, so that if I'm being hunted down, I'll know why."

Since Li Yang and Qingchen are currently together, they are essentially in the same boat.

At least we need to know who the enemy is.

Qingchen nodded. "That makes sense, I definitely need to tell you."

He paused for a moment and then said, "That Realm Domain has a grudge against our Huaxia Heavenly Palace. It's called Bone Peach, and there are sentient beings in that Realm Domain, which are peach trees. They call themselves the Bone Peach Clan."

Li Yang: "..." What a small world! It's the Bone Peach Clan again.

Li Yang hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Does the Bone Peach Clan produce peaches?"

Qingchen: "Yes, otherwise why would they be called the Bone Peach Clan?"
