Chapter 454 Strange Beasts of the Stars
However, they didn't know if the other side had any backup plans, since they had just been tricked by them. So Zhang Ze led his men to stop these people and let Chen Xingheng take Gu Qing away first.
Chen Xingheng didn't refuse; he was willing to pay any price, as long as Gu Qing wasn't hurt. He rode the white tiger, weaving through the meteorites.
Meanwhile, a thousand kilometers away from them, a large number of star insect beasts were being drawn towards them by the energy they emitted.
Although the God of Wealth is only at the beginner level (3S), the difference in level means that his subordinates cannot stop him even if they want to.
After escaping for an endless distance, just as they were about to reach their spaceship, the white tiger crashed into a transparent shield.
As the ripples from the impact revealed the form of the octopus, the God of Wealth behind him also showed his glittering golden appearance. "Don't go, let's have a good talk."
Chen Xingheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Let us leave, and Black Domain will drop the warrant for your arrest."
He held up an index finger and waved it in front of his eyes. "This offer won't sway me. After all, I've never been interested in the Black Domain."
You know I'm only interested in credits and rare resources. You've been with me for half a month, eating and drinking my things and consuming a lot of my resources."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You stole several of my spatial buttons, which represent most of my wealth. I only ate a few of your fruits, and you still have the nerve to talk back."
Gu Qing is utterly incompetent; if she were, she'd want to strangle him. She was perfectly fine staying at home when he dragged her here, and now he's trying to blackmail her.
"Hmph! What's the use of saying all that? Now that you're in my hands, I have the upper hand, so you have to accept my arrangements."
Chen Xingheng covered Gu Qing's face with his hand and turned her head away, disliking her arguing with that person.
"Just tell me what you want!" His displeasure was evident in his words.
Gu Qingzhi snuggled into his arms and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Heh! It's simple, I just want the woman in your arms to save my life. Hey, don't refuse, I'm not stupid. How could I not investigate before taking action?"
"The only purifier in the entire interstellar space capable of external purification—you're one of her husbands, aren't you!"
Then, his tone became somewhat somber, "The final fate of us fighters is to become mad beasts and be strangled."
If that day ever comes, I hope Master Gu will step in.
Chen Xingheng pressed down on Gu Qing, who was about to get up and agree, and nodded. "Okay, as long as Qingqing is still capable at that time, she won't stand idly by."
At this moment, the two people's spiritual bodies suddenly emitted a sharp crack. The two quickly went on alert, but the alien beast in the distance was already within sight.
Everyone knows that once this thing comes, anything with energy will become its food, or it will escape beyond their perception, or it will simply kill them all.
But despite their high level, they were no match for hordes of alien beasts from the stars.
"Damn it, are you a jinx? Ever since I met you, nothing good has happened to me. Now I can't even summon any alien beasts from the stars. I will definitely avoid you like the plague if I ever see you again."
The God of Wealth's tone was unpleasant, but his subordinates acted swiftly, immediately summoning a mecha and getting inside.
They quickly rejoined the group from before, but those people were in a much worse state, each bearing serious injuries.
At this point, they didn't care about the energy consumption and all boarded the mechs.
"Boss, we'll block your way and take your wife away first."
Looking at their severe injuries, Chen Xingheng finally couldn't help but close his eyes and throw Gu Qing into the arms of the God of Wealth.
“You take her away, and I’ll hold off the others, but I’m afraid we won’t be able to.”
"What are you pretending for, kid? You think you can hold them off? You're not planning to self-destruct to buy us time, are you?"
As soon as the God of Wealth finished speaking, Gu Qing, who had come to her senses, cried out in anguish, "Xingheng, no!"
Chen Xingheng glanced back at her, truly heartbroken! The girl he cherished so dearly. But what could he do? If his actions could secure a chance for her survival, then even dying for her would be worthwhile!
He turned around ruthlessly, holding the short sword Gu Qing had given him, and channeled his supernatural power into the nearly 10-meter-long, mantis-like creature as he fought it.
The God of Wealth grabbed Gu Qing's protective suit and ran rapidly into the distance. The Empire's twelve knights were also ordered to hold them off, while Prince Ali rode his spiritual form in another direction.
Chen Xingheng, along with his men and twelve knights, used all their skills to block these strange beasts.
