Shen Ying was charging forward, but she was a little too late. Yu Heng was already prepared. In a flash, he disappeared. Shen Ying grasped onto air and watched Yu Heng appear in the sky.
Lonemoon and the two others rushed over and looked around to find that all the managers who had been lying on the ground a couple of minutes ago all disappeared. All that was left was the pitch-black water body. What was happening? What was Yu Heng up to?

Those managers…


Are you looking for them?
As if reading their minds, Yu Heng’s face split into a dark grin. Beside him, the 16 managers arose, including the four who had been trapped in the light wall earlier. Some of them were still in a coma. However, every single one of them had a black rope wrapped on their bodies so that they could not move.

Boss!
Tu Zhi began to panic. He looked down and saw the solid rope around his body.
What are you…



Yu Heng did not bother to respond to Tu Zhi. Instead, he kept his gaze locked on Shen Ying as his excitement grew.
Originally, I wanted to find a way to increase my own powers slowly. I never thought that I would attract the legendary monitor. But this is good as well…

Once he finished speaking, he waved his hand at Tu Zhi, who was closest to him. Tu Zhi combusted into red smoke and entered into Yu Heng’s body. The unshakable black aura around Yu Heng slowly became mixed with red.
Tu Zhi did not even have time to scream. With one move from Yu Heng, his body turned into ash – not a single bone was left behind. The aura around Yu Heng got thicker and thicker, and the suppressive force emanating from his body became stronger.
Lonemoon’s heart jumped. He finally understood why Yu Heng kept these 16 managers around him – he had no intention to save them at all.
Shit, he’s sucking in these 16 managers’ powers. We have to stop him!

But there was no time!

Hahaha…
Tu Zhi laughed maniacally. The fear was completely gone from his face. All that was left was deranged greed.
Once I absorb all of them, it’ll be your turn! Once I absorb all of your powers, nobody will be able to stop me!

He became increasingly excited. The black aura around him spread out toward the other managers, whose bodies similarly combusted into fumes that entered Yu Heng’s body. There were red fumes, blue fume, yellow fumes… each of the managers’ powers mixed into the black aura around Yu Heng’s body so that it was now multi-colored.
At the same time, the suppressive force became stronger and stronger. Lonemoon and the others could even feel the defensive force that Shen Ying set up around them losing its powers. It was almost as if they were in danger of being smashed into pieces at any time. They could not even fly out to stop this from happening.

Shit!
Lonemoon cursed under his breath. Those managers had been Tu Zhi’s subordinates, yet he was willing to consume their powers without any hesitation. It looked like this so-called Big Dao Organization was just a cover-up for their combined plots to invade other planes and absorb other managers’ powers for themselves.
They were watching as he absorbed 16 managers’ powers, but they were certain that there were even more before them. Although Lonemoon and Chef had not been afraid when they were fighting the 16 managers at once, they knew they were now no match for Yu Heng alone. Only Shen Ying had a chance to stop him.


But no matter how powerful Shen Ying was, she was only a bit stronger than ordinary managers. Could she really defeat Yu Heng?
Worriedly, Lonemoon turned around.
Shen… Eh?

Shen Ying looked as lazy as usual – no, in fact, she looked even lazier. One would think that she had not even noticed what was happening in front of her in the sky. She picked up a fruit and began to chew on it lazily.
Hearing Lonemoon, she tilted her head and asked,
Huh?

Lonemoon pursed his lips. Was this the time for her to eat fruits?

Hahaha…
Yu Heng was almost done absorbing all the managers’ powers. He looked down at the four of them as if he were looking at their corpses.
It’s your turn.

Lonemoon panicked.
Quick, think! What should we do?
Both he and Yi Qing instinctively moved in front of Shen Ying to defend her.

I’m thinking!
Shen Ying said as she took another bite out of her fruit.
I just have one thing I can’t figure out.


What is it?


Tell me…
She pointed at the person in the air laughing maniacally to himself.
Will he have a tummy ache after consuming so much waste?



Huh?
What kind of stupid question was that?
Grumble…
A strange noise came from the sky, where Yu Heng was. Yu Heng paused mid-attack and turned pale immediately. Then, he bent over and wrapped his arms around his stomach. From his expression, it was obvious that he was in immense pain.
Lonemoon:
…

Yi Qing:
…

Fang Fang:
…

The situation was extremely awkward.

See, didn’t I tell you that he’ll have a stomachache?
Shen Ying asked.
How can this freaking be?!



What’s happening?
Yu Heng’s stomach was aching extremely badly. With a loud crash, his body dropped down from the sky. With his arms still wrapped around his body, Yu Heng rolled around the ground, writing in pain. His arrogant expression was completely wiped from his face and replaced by a pained one.
The few of them took a closer look and found that slash wounds were beginning to appear like cracks on his body. Where his skin split open, they saw different colours, much like the ones they saw earlier when the 16 managers’ bodies combusted into fumes. The coloured fumes seemed to be wanting to escape Yu Heng’s control through these wounds.
Yu Heng looked at his own body in disbelief. Crazed, he screamed,
This is impossible! I’ve already absorbed their powers into my own body! How can they be fighting back! Impossible!
As if suddenly realising something, his head darted back to face Shen Ying.
You! What did you do?

Shen Ying paused. You’re having a stomach ache and you’re blaming me for it?

I didn’t do anything!
She took several steps forward and scanned his body from head to toe.
I think you’re… bloating from eating too much!

Lonemoon:
…

Yi Qing:
…

Fang Fang:
…

Why did the three of them suddenly feel like this logic was making sense to them? Yu Heng had absorbed the powers of 16 managers all at once. Now, his body was having an adverse reaction because it was unable to handle this overconsumption. This was really his own doing.

No… no! I clearly… Ah~
More and more splashes appeared on Yu Heng’s body, each of a different colour. His body now resembled a rainbow. It looked like he was going to explode from this pressure at any moment. Still, he did not take his eyes off of Shen Ying. His gaze turning more hateful, he said,
Do you think you can escape this place after defeating me? Dream on!



He laughed maniacally.
Do you really think that this is all there is to my Big Dao Organization?
He reached out and grabbed at the sky, as if tearing something down.
The next moment, a white beam shot out of the plane tree that carried the entire galaxy. A huge force could be felt throughout the plane. One by one, many figures appeared in the middle of the sky. Each of them carried the aura of a manager, just like Lonemoon’s.
