Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 756: Rivals in Love

"Killed!" Zhang Lie was taken aback. "Has Warlord Chen Ruiming really perished? What a shame...

No, hold on! He might not be among the strongest warlords of the third realm, but even so, it shouldn't be so easy for Behemoth to kill him, surely!"

Chen Fan sighed. "We trusted the wrong ally. The Blackwind race has been on good terms with the draconians, so when the Mengtai attacked and the Blackwind came to help us, we were very glad. And then..."

Zhang Lie understood what had happened; he had defeated members of the Blackwind race on the battlefield. "And then the Blackwind betrayed you and assassinated Warlord Chen Ruiming, I take it?"

This wasn't something that had happened in Zhang Lie's past life. In some sense, Zhang Lie was partially responsible for the issue.

Chen Fan's face was stony. "None of us expected the Blackwind to betray us at the most crucial moment."

Zhang Lie replied coldly, "The Blackwind will pay with blood for killing a human warlord."

"Destroying a world isn't that easy," Chen Fan cautioned. "Now that we've destroyed the invading forces, they'll surely send even more against us."

Neither Chen Fan nor the rest of the humans took Zhang Lie's words seriously. Even though they had witnessed his strength, they were doubtful of what he could accomplish.

After all, destroying a world was far harder than it seemed, and there were eight worlds allied against them. If there had been just one, Chen Fan would easily have believed that Zhang Lie could take it on, but not eight together at once.

Zhang Lie was just one hunter. Sun Mengmeng was just one hunter. There might be two strong humans around, but there were eight worlds. Even if Zhang Lie could handle three, and Sun Mengmeng could handle one, there would be four remaining.

Chen Fan didn't dare imagine that there were hunters around as strong as Sun Mengmeng; he simply couldn't believe that the other members of Team Zenith were as impressive as Sun Mengmeng.

Chen Fan continued, "It must have been a struggle for all of you to get here so quickly, and you must be tired. Have a good night's rest, and we can talk about avenging Warlord Chen Ruiming later."

The injured draconian sage was slowly walking toward the humans, supported by a few other draconians. He had reverted to his human form and was sizing up Zhang Lie and Sun Mengmeng. "I had hardly expected to find such strength among the humans. You have my gratitude for saving the draconian world, for saving us all!"

The other draconians had likewise canceled their battle transformations. In their usual forms, they were much like the humans, except for the horns on their heads.

Zhang Lie shook his head. "It was only natural for us to help—this is also the human homeworld, after all."

As the spatial rift died away, the rest of Zhang Lie's group rushed over.

The draconian sage, other draconians, and the humans all became visibly nervous—after all, Zhang Lie's retinue was far larger than they had expected.

There were over a hundred aliens from the Milky Way, along with the massive hordes of lifeforms under Zhang Lie's control, forming a black mass in the horizon. The draconians and humans, who were unprepared and defenseless, could hardly help but be anxious.

Zhang Lie waved a hand. "There's no need to worry. The aliens are all my comrades, and the lifeforms under my direct control."

"What?!" Chen Fan and the draconian sage, along with both the human and draconian forces, were shocked by Zhang Lie's words. That veritable army of lifeforms, tens of thousands strong—the weakest among them was a superior-grade lifeform, and those lifeforms alone could easily take down a world by themselves!

No wonder Zhang Lie felt comfortable claiming that he would seek revenge by destroying the invaders' worlds! With such a staggering number of forces, he would be able to accomplish anything.

"Zhang Lie!" Li Qianlin waved at Zhang Lie from the very front of the party. She strode forward and checked his body for any wounds, relaxing when she didn't find any. "When I heard that you were going to brave a spatial rift, I was so frightened—but it seems like you really succeeded!"

Just then, Sun Mengmeng casually walked up to Zhang Lie and took ahold of his wrist. "Zhang Lie, who's this?"

Sun Mengmeng had heard about Zhang Lie crashing Li Qianlin's wedding. After all, the news had taken the entire galaxy by storm.

However, given Sun Mengmeng's understanding of Zhang Lie, there was no way he would simply snatch a woman for no reason whatsoever. Furthermore, Li Qianlin showed no outstanding talent or aptitude for anything; she was just a pretty face.

Sun Mengmeng had the better body, and she felt that they were equally beautiful. In terms of style and poise, she couldn't hope to compare to Li Qianlin, who was a princess by birth, but she was far and away the victor in terms of strength.

Considering all these factors, it was apparent that she, Sun Mengmeng, was the superior candidate.

Li Qianlin glanced at Sun Mengmeng with no small amount of distaste herself. The two women made eye contact, their eyes sparking.

Sun Mengmeng extended a hand. "I'm Sun Mengmeng, Zhang Lie's companion and one of the members of Team Zenith."

Li Qianlin raised an eyebrow. "Zhang Lie's subordinate, then? And here I thought you were someone established in your own right."

Sun Mengmeng asked, "And who are you?"

Li Qianlin smiled sweetly and tugged on Zhang Lie's other wrist. "I'm his wife."

Sun Mengmeng sighed. "Another one of you, then."

Li Qianlin frowned. "What? What do you mean?"

Sun Mengmeng continued, "I've dealt with far too many shameless women like you in the past, calling yourself Zhang Lie's woman, Zhang Lie's wife, Zhang Lie's lover, Zhang Lie's long-lost daughter, Zhang Lie's long-lost sister—such women have only appeared in greater and greater numbers ever since he established the kingdom of Limit."

Li Qianlin pointed at her forehead. "I'm not like those types of people. Don't you see my forehead? This is a mark of marriage conferred by the will of the world itself."

.

Sun Mengmeng shrugged. "I don't care what the will of the world claims. Have you registered your marriage at the world federation's department of civil affairs?"

Li Qianlin gaped. "Department of civil affairs...?"

"Don't you know?" Sun Mengmeng sneered. "If not, then your marriage surely isn't formalized under galactic law. You're claiming to be married under false pretenses—it's a crime that could see you jailed! As long as your marriage isn't recognized by the department of civil affairs, it can hardly be considered a marriage in truth."

Li Qianlin retorted, "In our world, a formal marriage is recognized by the will of the world itself!"

The two rivals in love hated each other at first sight. They began to bicker and feud with each other, while Zhang Lie watched on at a loss for words...
