Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 876: Here for Your Life

Chapter 876: Here for Your Life

Xing Ying thought for a moment. "The inhabitants of the world have a strong stench about them. Could this stench be some form of hypnosis that allows them to control the genetic lifeforms all around?"

Zhang Lie nodded. "At any rate, I'll be able to identify the truth by heading to that world and having a look for myself."

Zhang Lie was very curious about this race that was purported to be able to live in harmony with genetic lifeforms.

Zhang Lie continued, "It's true that the king of the realm of such a large world is very strong."

The eastern king Li Zongming had been one such king, and he was far stronger than kings of ordinary large worlds.

"However, there were dozens of warlords in your party, many of whom already have disaster gene fragments of their own. You might not be a match for the king one on one, but surely you had the numerical advantage?"

Xing Ying chuckled. "We did, but so did they."

"Manpower on the level of kings of the realm?" Even a large world at its peak shouldn't have had access to such potent strength.

Xing Ying shook his head. "Yes, but not in the manner you're thinking."

"What are they, then? Puppets?"

Xing Ying replied, "No—they're genetic lifeforms."

Zhang Lie instantly understood. "Disaster-grade lifeforms!" Only those lifeforms could fight on the level of a king of the realm.

Xing Ying nodded.

"How many of them?"

Xing Ying raised three fingers. "Thirty!"

Zhang Lie's eyes lit up. Thirty disaster-grade lifeforms? This world was a treasure vault!

Ren Kunjing said, "According to our investigations, the king of that world enjoys invading nearby worlds, capturing all the lifeforms there, and bringing them back to his own world."

Zhang Lie nodded. "In other words, these disaster-grade lifeforms came from a few, or even a few dozen, worlds."

This was a true fortune. Zhang Lie had been in search of disaster-grade lifeforms to spur Red Comet's evolution, but he hadn't expected to find such a large group so quickly.

"Now that I know who it was that injured you, I'll set off immediately." Zhang Lie rushed out of the room.

Xing Ying was very touched that Zhang Lie was willing to do so much for them—and with such urgency.

The fact that Zhang Lie was unwilling to wait even a single moment demonstrated just how much he valued them warlords. From then on, Xing Ying swore to himself that he would be a loyal follower to Zhang Lie.

With Ren Kunjing's help, Zhang Lie quickly found the world which Xing Ying and his party had headed towards. He split space and arrived in that world in the blink of an eye.

As Xing Ying had mentioned, the world was filled with lifeforms. Peak-grade ones were everywhere to be seen, and superior-grade ones were more numerous than dogs.

Zhang Lie startled the king of the realm with his space-tearing arrival, but the king of the realm relaxed upon noticing that Zhang Lie was alone. He dispatched a subordinate to figure out what Zhang Lie was doing.

Zhang Lie saw the subordinate from afar. If he weren't mistaken, this was a native inhabitant of this world. Xing Ying's description had been a little off; the inhabitants were like walking beasts, with fierce, inhuman faces, strong, muscular limbs, and a large, sturdy body.

"Who are you?" the alien asked.

Zhang Lie blinked in surprise. "I thought you would bark or yell, but you can speak!" Just like Xing Ying had mentioned, these aliens had a curious stench about them.

Zhang Lie frowned as rainbow light colored his eyes. In front of him, the alien's gaze grew unfocused. His eyes likewise took on a rainbow gleam.

"What race are you?"

The alien replied woodenly, "We're the Shouyin."

"Where's your king?"

Before the alien could reply, a spatial rift formed above him. Zhang Lie smiled as he glanced upward. "It looks like there's no need for me to search for him now, I suppose."

"Friend, don't you know it's quite rude to be controlling my kin?" The Shouyin king had made use of his authority to teleport right in front of Zhang Lie. The Shouyin king likewise seemed to be a bipedal beast, but if his subordinate were somewhere between superior- and peak-grade, he was disaster-grade.

A domineering aura emanated from his body. Pale white lightning forked over his body, and a gigantic pair of wings grew from his back. His limbs were thick and strong, his claws sharp, and his beard wild. His eyes flashed with red light, but he sounded calm and collected.

"Why have you come to this world, friend?"

It looked as though the king of the realm had been paying attention to the interaction between Zhang Lie and his subordinate, but this was only reasonable. After all, even the king of the realm had to be wary of an existence that could shatter space.

If not for the fact that Zhang Lie had displayed his power upon entry to the world, the king of the realm would have struck him the moment Zhang Lie attacked his subordinate. However, after that display of power, the king of the realm was wary of Zhang Lie's strength.

"I'm here for one thing," Zhang Lie replied.

"What's there in this world that you're interested in, friend?"

"Your life."

As Zhang Lie clenched his fists, blue genetic energy gathered and rippled around his arms. He flicked his wrists, spawning a frightening aura in the rapidly darkening skies.

Sweat dripped down the king's forehead as he sensed the magnitude of Zhang Lie's genetic energy. A large fish the size of a whale manifested in the air as the king's face turned ugly. "This is the first time we've met. Has there been a misunderstanding?"

Howling winds filled the air, and the genetic lifeforms in the world all began to shriek and shout as they sensed the frightening genetic energy that Zhang Lie was giving off.

Faced with Zhang Lie's pressure and the storm that his genetic energy had summoned, even the Shouyin king wanted to run away like the genetic lifeforms around him.

However, he was the king of this realm, and it would be terribly embarrassing to do so.

Howling winds swept at his face as lightning continued to fork around his body. More and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie's arms. The genetic energy was so dense around Zhang Lie that the Shouyin king could see it with his own eyes.

As more and more layers of genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie, the Shouyin king could keenly perceive how destructive the resulting attack would be if this unknown assailant were to release it all...
