Chapter 238: Chapter 215: Huo Zhanting, Farewell to Yu Lan
"You’re finally awake."
"If you didn’t wake up soon, I was preparing to die right along with you."
Her soul, which had been drifting unmoored in the void, had just landed.
At this moment, Yu Lan was still in a daze, not yet fully lucid.
Suddenly hearing Ye Moyun’s voice, she tilted her head. Her amber eyes stared at him, vacant and unfocused. At the sight, Ye Moyun’s heart instantly began to pound. He looked away, a little uncomfortable.
"Where is this?"
A moment later, Yu Lan’s confused voice sounded.
"But I thought I..."
’Didn’t I already turn to dust?’
The instant after she asked, a deafening explosion echoed from not far away.
Immediately after, the room she was in began to shake violently, as if the world were ending.
’Oh.’
’So we were hit by a shell.’
Yu Lan still hadn’t quite processed what was happening when she saw Ye Moyun’s expression, which had brightened upon her awakening, instantly turn ashen.
"These damn mad dogs!"
"Once they get a hold of you, they never let go."
With that, he strode to his feet, opened the door, and rushed out.
It was followed by a few sharp reprimands from outside, ordering people to take cover.
After a few more seconds, the door opened again.
A hint of apology flashed in Ye Moyun’s amethyst eyes.
"Sorry, I didn’t expect Belina to contact anyone else."
"The Dark Planet sent another elite squad over."
"If it weren’t for the protective shield you were wearing blocking the blow at the critical moment, I’m afraid you’d really be gone by now."
Yu Lan raised an eyebrow slightly, clearly not having expected that.
She raised a hand and gently touched her neck. Sure enough, the necklace Shen Zueran had given her had turned to fine dust.
Ye Moyun continued to ramble:
"You really scared me back then. I never would have thought you’d do something like that."
"I thought you would at least have Yu Wenzhou send you away."
Ye Moyun could hardly describe the shock he felt seeing that scene.
He knew he would remember that scene for the rest of his life.
After quickly ordering his men to flee in the Starship, he had slipped away.
Ye Moyun’s greatest talent since he was a child was finding things.
Among a multitude of options, he could always find the most important and correct one.
This was also the reason he chose to cooperate with Yu Lan.
Following the guidance of fate, he had smoothly gotten one step ahead of everyone else and found Yu Lan first.
However, when he found her, the beautiful young female’s condition was not good; it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she was on the verge of death.
But strangely, her wounds were rapidly repairing and healing themselves at an incredible speed.
’So this is the ability of a 3S-level female?’
’Not only can they heal others, but they can also heal themselves.’
The thought flashed through Ye Moyun’s mind.
Just then, the Starship was rocked by another explosion—BOOM—and began to shake violently.
Immediately after, Huo Zhanting’s familiar, cold, and ruthless voice rang out:
"All of you, die."
Yu Lan’s eyes widened in shock.
Ye Moyun spread his hands helplessly.
"Ever since yesterday, when your Beast Husband, Huo Zhanting, and the others arrived on White Sand Star."
"They split up and immediately began a massive, grid-by-grid search, not missing a single inch. Like mad dogs, they’re risking their lives to annihilate the Dark Night Star Thief Group."
"I imagine their next step after wiping out the Star Thief Group will be to send troops to attack the Dark Planet."
As Ye Moyun spoke, his gaze remained fixed on Yu Lan’s face, constantly observing her expression.
’Hearing that her Beast Husbands are desperately avenging her against their enemies after her "death" should make her at least a little happy, right?’
But unexpectedly, Yu Lan just frowned, her face a clear picture of worry.
"Have they not been resting at all?"
"They must be exhausted."
"What?"
Ye Moyun was dumbfounded.
He stared at Yu Lan in astonishment.
’Seriously?’
’His Starship is being torn apart by Huo Zhanting and the others in retaliation right now.’
’Several 3S-levels working together... there’s no way he can fight back.’
Ye Moyun sighed.
At that exact moment, the Starship was hit by another shell and began to shake violently and uncontrollably.
The reinforced steel ceiling began to buckle downwards, and the sounds of Star Thieves crying and fleeing came from outside the door.
Ye Moyun held out a hand.
"May I? I’m getting you out of here now."
"This Starship is about to be torn to pieces by your Beast Husbands."
"You didn’t wake up just to become a tragic fugitive lover with me, did you?"
Ye Moyun couldn’t help but imagine Huo Zhanting’s First Legion clearing the wreckage only to find him and Yu Lan embracing.
’Wouldn’t that be enough to make those men die of rage?’
At the thought, Ye Moyun couldn’t help but let out a low chuckle.
A strange light glinted in his amethyst eyes.
Though his words were a polite inquiry, he didn’t actually wait for Yu Lan’s answer.
He shot out a large hand, wrapped his arm firmly around Yu Lan’s waist, and, holding the beautiful young female, leaped straight out of the room’s window.
The First Legion, which had been relentlessly attacking the Dark Night Star Thief Group, spotted Ye Moyun’s escape in that instant and immediately reported it:
"Marshal, the leader of the Dark Night Star Thief Group, Ye Moyun, just escaped through a window."
At that, the lion of a man standing in command, shrouded in deep fury and drowned in hatred, snapped his head up.
His bloodshot golden eyes fixed on Ye Moyun, who was fleeing further and further from the battle.
His sharp eyes narrowed. In that moment, a cold, grim aura washed over them, like a storm about to break.
"Just a little rat."
"Trying to escape!"
"We’ll see if I allow it."
Huo Zhanting shot to his feet, and in the next instant, the Golden Lion appeared with formidable might.
A cold, ruthless, and chilling voice sounded:
"You all continue attacking the Starship. I’ll take care of him."
With that, the Golden Lion pushed its speed to the absolute limit, chasing after Ye Moyun like a madman.
’Revenge, revenge, revenge.’
’The people on that Starship are just small fry.’
’Ye Moyun gave all the orders.’
’He deserves to die!’
’The Dark Planet, Belina, and Louisa—they all deserve to die!’
The blood-red hue in the Golden Lion’s beastly eyes grew deeper.
His head began to throb again.
It was as if thousands of steel needles were simultaneously stabbing and hammering inside his brain.
It had been like this ever since the day he heard that Yu Lan had vanished for the sake of White Sand Star.
Perhaps his own death was approaching fast.
But it didn’t matter. Before he died, he would personally eliminate everyone who had ever harmed Lanlan.
’Definitely!’
The Golden Lion relentlessly pursued Ye Moyun, letting out continuous, hoarse roars of fury.
Ye Moyun ran with Yu Lan in his arms, his heart trembling in fear.
"He’s a madman."
"A complete madman."
"This fighting style... he’s literally burning his life force."
"When you’re both 3S-level, and there isn’t a huge gap in talent or strength,"
"it all comes down to who’s more vicious, more skilled, and who’s more willing to throw their life away."
"And right now, Huo Zhanting has completely thrown his life away."
’Huo Zhanting might not care about his life, but he, Ye Moyun, would like to live a few more years.’
"Princess Yu Lan, that’s a Desolate Star up ahead. There’s no one there. When we get there, I’ll put you down, and you can explain things to Marshal Huo for me, alright?"
