Chapter 2417 - Explain Yourself!

Chapter 2417: Explain Yourself! It was Long Yangjun’s
Heavenly Crystal
!

Don’t act as if I didn’t exist, idiot!

Long Yangjun spat coldly. Dragging the incomplete body, the Heavenly Crystal stabbed the only remaining right arm entirely into the chest of
Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen’s Colossus. Not only was the chest pierced through, but the glittering crystals were also spreading out to all directions like some sort of weird virus!
Song Huanzhen was trapped inside the spiritual residence of the Colossus, surrounded and suppressed by ever-growing crystals, which gave her nowhere to run to at all and were even invading her body!

Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen struggled violently, trying to get rid of the scourge of the Heavenly Crystal. But by the time she finally got rid of the enemy’s boundary, the dozens of metal tentacles from the
Arsonist
had already been extended to her face and were even penetrating into the body through the cracks on the Colossus.
The sucking discs and the sawtooth at the front ends of every metal tentacle had been opened to the maximum. From the dark holes that looked like the throats of vipers, brutal brilliance was beaming out.

Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen’s bloodshot eyes were filled with horror as she exclaimed in desperation,
No—


Immortal Cultivator?

Li Yao sneered and opened fire. Thousands of flames burst out of the Arsonist, burning
Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen as well as her Colossus into nothingness from inside to outside. Even if some of the debris to which the pieces of their remaining souls were attached flew out, it was immediately minced into pieces by Long Yangjun’s crystal blades that followed closely behind.
Under Li Yao and Long Yangjun’s collective attacks, and particularly because of
Moon Devil
Yue Wushuang’s backstabbing,
Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen and her Colossus were obliterated in the blink of an eye, not leaving a single last word behind.
Li Yao and Long Yangjun looked at each other and knew each other well enough to not say anything. Not bothering the small fries who were still resisting stubbornly around, they chased after
Moon Devil
Yue Wushuang at the same time.
After kicking Song Huanzhen at Li Yao and Long Yangjun, Yue Wushuang was given a boost in speed and had run to the entrance of the Great Iron Plants at the edge during the moment the two of them killed Song Huanzhen.
She did not even have the time to take off her Colossus, fearing that Li Yao and Long Yangjun would slash her from her back the moment she took off the Colossus. She simply broke into the mines equipped with a Colossus almost thirty meters tall, leaving deafening noises of collisions from the depths of the mines.

Don’t let her run away!

Li Yao gnashed his teeth and roared,
She is a leader of the reformists and must be a trusted subordinate of Li Linghai and Wuying Qi!

Since Yue Wushuang did not take off the Colossus, it was naturally unsuitable for Li Yao to take off his own, or it would be rather awkward if the enemy suddenly launched a counterattack and left a few bloody holes on his body. The cave he was in was among the spacious ones, but it was still only no more than twenty meters in diameter. A Colossus could only move inside by bending the back. Both fighting and hunting were highly inconvenient.
Thankfully, Xiaoming and Wenwen mobilized tremendous battle puppets to follow Li Yao and run after Yue Wushuang. The features and parameters of the
Moon Devil
were about to be fixed, and the most lethal attack from the back was underway when the
Moon Devil
suddenly came to a halt.

Watch out!

Inside the Heavenly Crystal, Long Yangjun dragged the metal tentacles behind the back of the Arsonist heavily, snatching Li Yao back.
BOOM!
In the next second, a thunderous explosion burst out deep inside the cave. Infinite light and heat raged out like a raging flood. Not only were the two Colossi blown out of the cave at the same time, but the rock stratum several square kilometers around were also collapsed by the explosion too, raising a minor earthquake!

…

Li Yao looked at the collapsed rocks and the dust that was coming at him like tides, stunned.
The explosion of such a high intensity could’ve only been caused by the self-detonation of a Colossus.
He did not expect Yue Wushuang to be as brutal. After discovering that her odds of survival were slim, she was ruthless enough to activate the self-detonation unit on her Colossus, hoping to die together with Li Yao.
No. Considering the cunningness of the she-devil, it was possible that she had escaped from the Colossus in advance like a gecko losing its tail. Although her Colossus had been sacrificed, it was possible that she had escaped and was about to report to Li Linghai and Wuying Qi about the issue.
As the leader of the Tribunal of Extraterrestrial Devils and a central person of the reformists, she was certainly incomparable to
Devilish Abyss
Li Jianyi and
Star Breaker
Song Huanzhen who were simple warriors.
As the three experts in the Divinity Transformation Stage on the Immortal Cultivators’ side died or fled, the short yet brutal battle approached the end.
The collapse of the three Colossi on their own side shattered the determination of all the Immortal Cultivators. Although the crushed soldiers were unwilling to surrender to Li Yao, Long Yangjun, Li Jialing, and even the
humble locals
, they were unable to fight anymore, and so, they escaped to the deeper parts of the underground worlds along the forsaken mines and the natural cracks.
Li Yao did not have high hope for the Immortal Cultivators. They were mostly wounded and short of supplies, and their crystal processors had been seriously sabotaged too. It was very likely that they would lose their way in the caves that were as complicated as mazes, and it was impossible to send the distress calls to the surface of the planet through the rocks that were almost ten thousand meters thick.
Then, after using up the last drop of fuel and the last stream of spiritual energy, they would only be swallowed by the darkness, embracing an ending that was even more miserable than the locals of the place who had been living here for thousands of years.
Right now, furious flames were still burning inside the Great Iron Plants. The magma that spurted out just now had destroyed a lot of important facilities and precious assets too. For the sake of the underground locals in the long term, they had no time to chase after the Immortal Cultivators who were dispersing and fleeing, and they must clean the battlefield and rescue the assets first.
Li Yao made the decision quickly. Xiaoming and Wenwen gradually changed their strategy, turning from the siege and sabotage a moment ago to taking over everything, including the mainframe crystal processors of all the factories in the Great Iron Plants.
As the mainframe crystal processors were compromised one after another, more and more battle puppets took Li Yao’s side. After bowing at the Arsonist courteously in a weird posture, they put down the weapons in their hands and began to clean up the battlefield. All the workers were so confused by what they saw that they could not understand what was going on at all.
After half a month, the Great Iron Plants had finally fallen to the hands of the Cultivators and the underground locals again!
Driving the Heavenly Crystal, Long Yangjun floated in the midair with the anti-gravity rune arrays and observed the compromised battle puppets as well as Li Yao’s
Arsonist
carefully.
Li Yao felt rather embarrassed being watched by her. Scratching the metal tentacles on his head, he struggled to squeeze out a smile.
It’s me. I’m back. What are you looking at?


I know it’s you. I’m checking how I can cut you into pieces and feed you to dogs, but it has occurred to me that you seem to be even stronger now. Incredibly strong. And there’s also this… damn Colossus. It is truly challenging to cut you into pieces right now.

Long Yangjun was silent for a long time. Then, she finally couldn’t hold it back anymore and gnashed her teeth while pointing at the battle puppets that were crawling everywhere on the ground.
Do you not feel that you owe me a good explanation?

…
Half an hour later, the last heavily wounded Immortal Cultivator was tied up by the battle puppets, and the Immortal Cultivators who were capable of running had long escaped. The intense gunshots finally came to an end.
Commanding the spiritual puppets, Xu Zhicheng and the workers ransacked the Great Iron Plants for useful assets in delight. The Immortal Cultivators seemed to have regarded the Great Iron Plants as a temporary transfer station and command center, and abundant military assets had been stored in the place. Right now, all the assets, including the guns, the blades, the standard magazines, the compressed air, and the military synthetic food that contains ultra-high energy, were the trophies of the underground locals right now, enough to meet the needs of twenty towns for a year and a half.
Inside the office that belonged to Li Minghui first and Yue Wushuang later and eventually the underground locals, Long Yangjun bulged her eyes with a most spectacular look on her face, as if she were trying to hold back her laughter, but snorts were still coming from her nostrils. Her face was red, and her tears were almost dropping as she tried not to laugh out loud.

What did you say? Excuse me?

Long Yangjun looked at Li Yao and the two vigorous children next to him.
You said that they are your son and your daughter. This… This… This is really—


Yes, they are exactly my biological children!

Li Yao replied, not exactly in a good temper,
I am a senior more than a hundred years old. Isn’t it perfectly normal to have children? What’s the look on your face anyway?


Forgive me, I’m not saying that you are abnormal. It’s just that I find it hard to associate ‘Vulture Li Yao’ with the role of a father for the time being.

Long Yangjun chuckled again as she looked at Li Yao and the two kids. While laughing, she took a huge step back and said,
Now that you said it, the kids do look a lot like you, but the whole thing still does not sound right. Does your wife know this? No. I should keep away from you. My intuitions tell me that you are a very dangerous vortex!


Your intuitions are right.

Furrowing his eyebrows, Li Yao replied,
But the whole thing is not exactly as you imagined. Or rather, it is a hundred times more dangerous than what you imagined!


Is that so?

Long Yangjun blinked her eyes.
Sorry for my limited imagination, but I can’t think of anything that is more dangerous than you having two children behind Ding Lingdang’s back.


What are you thinking about? They are of course the children of me and Ding Lingdang!

Li Yao did not know how to explain it now.
However, well, they had other experiences before they were born, which made them very special, even more special than you.

Long Yangjun immediately became gloomy.
Hey, hey, hey, you did not tell the ignorant kids certain things that you were not supposed to tell, did you?


First of all, we are not ignorant kids.

Xiaoming stood up and complained.

Secondly, Dad didn’t tell us anything. We analyzed Lady Long’s identity with big data on our own. There is a 95% likelihood that you are from the primeval age, and you are a warrior of the last-generation civilizations.

Wenwen smiled brilliantly at Long Yangjun.
This time, it was Long Yangjun who was rigidified in shock.
