Chapter 149: A Confession Just Like That?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A perfection Evolver!
Wang Ye was overjoyed by Song Shirui’s breakthrough.
He had tried countless methods to deal with the naive woman, and he was almost about to give up…
He did not expect that an unintentional move would be the final push she needed.
Hu!” Fire Pheonix’s flames covered the sky.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Wang Ye’s ability burst out instantly. While blocking the flames, the blade light mercilessly fell towards Fire Phoenix.
Stage 2 of the Nine Qi Saber Control Technique, Double Qi Penetration!
The sharp attack pierced through the flame binding. Two blade lights formed an ‘X’ at the front and back of Fire Phoenix, blocking her flame attack.
Bang! Bang!
It was just saber energy, but it was already extremely taxing for Fire Phoenix to block it.
The flame shield was extinguished as if a strong wind was blowing at it, especially since the stage 2 saber energy was as majestic as a mountain.
Even after most of the saber energy’s power had been used up, it still swept fiercely toward her fire rod. The ability collided violently with the saber energy, and she was blown away with a bang!
“How is he so strong?!” The fear in Fire Phoenix’s heart grew.
What should she do? What should she do now?
Could they still win?
On this side, Song Shirui’s breakthrough freed Hidden Black and caused Gilbert to lose his advantage.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The stealthy Hidden Black caused a lot of trouble for Gilbert.
At the same time, Song Shirui’s indomitable aura and continuous heavy attacks were not easy to block even if he was a perfection level 3 Evolver.
Still, he was confident against a perfection level 2 genetic warrior and a perfection level 1 genetic warrior who had just broken through.
Suddenly, a shiver ran down his spine, and his expression changed.
Wang Ye!
A fear of being dominated crept onto him, and his heart trembled.
He was the most terrifying!
Bang! Bang!
He quickly changed his form and blocked Wang Ye’s attacks.
At this moment, Fire Phoenix’s rain of flames descended, covering the sky and the earth. Wang Ye’s ability net appeared and blocked it instantly.
The attack instantly erupted!
Ignoring Fire Pheonix’s attack, Wang Ye went straight for Gilbert.
He would kill one first!
Explosive Spell!
All the cells in his body were activated crazily, and his combat energy surged out.
It was difficult to control the sudden burst of majestic stage 3 combat energy.
Blade light condensed as Wang Ye used the Dual-blade Style. His blade technique was stronger than Gilbert’s, and his attack speed was faster. It was a perfect restraint!
“This is too terrifying!” There was blood between Gilbert’s teeth, and his actions were limited as he found it difficult to defend himself.
Chi, chi, chi!
The Meteor Descent Saber Technique was quickly executed.
Each slash was stronger than the last. Its speed increased explosively, and its power was stacked layer by layer.
The Golden Horn Sabers shone with a golden light as they suppressed Gilbert’s defense.
The latter’s expression became increasingly unsightly. Even though Fire Pheonix’s attacks came one after another, Wang Ye’s attack speed was too terrifying!
It was too late!
Descent! Destruction
The sixth and seventh saber strikes erupted. Wang Ye gave up all his defenses.
He had to make it quick!
Even though he was engulfed in flames, Wang Ye was fearless.
Combat energy surrounded him, and the fire made him look like a God of War. Under the blades, Gilbert’s face was filled with fear.
This mercenary who had once roamed the African continent felt fear.
Having killed countless people, he was very clear about the current situation. He was close to death.
He didn’t want to die. He still wanted to live!
Gilbert was hysterical, and his pitch-black face was filled with malevolence. His eyes were bloodshot, and his bulged.
Combat energy exploded from his entire body, but Wang Ye’s attack had also reached its peak!
The eighth slash, Shattering Stars!
The terrifying power of the blade shattered Gilbert’s combat energy counterattack.
The Golden Horn Saber in his right hand followed, and the saber energy shattered the remaining blades of Gilbert.
The power of the nine moves combined into one, and the combat energy exploded at this moment!
The ninth blade, Meteor Explosion!
Boom!
The terrifying force was accompanied by a sea of fire that instantly burned Gilbert.
His shrill voice echoed in the sky above the wilderness. The bright moonlight illuminated his face of unwillingness and pain. He recalled his life filled with slaughter and blood.
For money, for survival, for profit, he had embarked on a path of no return.
He had no choice. Death was the final destination for every mercenary.
At least he was once glorious.
Boom!
Flames engulfed Gilbert.
Wang Ye floated, surrounded by a sea of flames. The layers of flames lit up the sky.
At the last moment, Fire Phoenix had abandoned Gilbert and set up this endless sea of fire as an obstacle, escaping without a trace.
“You followed the wrong person.” Wang Ye looked at the dying Gilbert.
He fought until the last moment. Unfortunately, Fire Phoenix did not treat him as her comrade.
If Fire Phoenix did her best to protect him, with her ability, this would still be a… one-sided battle, but perhaps, he could die with more dignity.
“She escaped.” Hidden Black appeared beside him with his face covered.
“That’s normal. She’s always been extremely selfish and careful.” Wang Ye had a thorough understanding of Fire Phoenix.
This ambitious woman was manipulative and very protective of herself. Many higher-ups had the same personality.
“What do we do?” Hidden Black said concisely.
Wang Ye calmly said, “Make a statement immediately. Tell them everything about today’s battle. At the same time, announce the death of Arthur and Gilbert. Also, strongly condemn Fire Phoenix for abandoning her companions. 1 want her reputation to be ruined!”
“Alright.”
*

The forums of the Blue Planet Alliance community, the Nine Provinces Alliance, and Huaxia exploded at the same time.
[Fire Phoenix, Arthur, and Gilbert ambushed Wang Ye!]
[Arthur, Gilbert died in battle! Fire Phoenix abandoned her comrades and fled alone!]
[Hidden Black: Strongly denounce the character of the leader of the Lone Rangers, Fire Phoenix. Immediately leave the Lone Ranger faction and the Blue Planet Alliance to join the Nine Provinces Alliance.]
One post after another appeared, shocking everyone.
An unprecedented battle between perfection Evolvers!
There were even photos of the battlefield, showing Arthur’s tragic death, Gilbert’s corpse in the sea of fire, and… Wang Ye who was like a God who had descended to the mortal world.
He was too strong!
“Fire Phoenix is so despicable. Three perfection Evolvers ambushed Wang Ye.
How could they do such a thing?”
“In the end, she even abandoned her companions and ran away alone. She’s extremely shameless! Are the Lone Rangers blind to choose such an old witch as their leader? She has no sense of responsibility and is afraid of death!”
“Shouldn’t the main focus be on Wang Ye? He’s the third on the combat power ranking, yet he beat the second! Moreover, it was a one against three. He’s just too strong. He had just become a perfection Evolver not long ago! How did he cultivate?”
“It’s easy-peasy lemon squeezy. This is all part of God Ye’s routine. We’re already used to it!”
“That’s right, Fire Phoenix underestimated God Ye too much. Demonic Awakening would give her a thumbs up for her stupidity and ignorance.”
Fire Phoenix’s reputation was ruined!
The Lone Ranger faction that was already unstable scattered, and even the Blue Planet Alliance suffered a heavy blow, starting a new wave of withdrawal.
Other than the White Eagle Federation and the notorious Evolvers who remained in the Blue Planet Alliance, the other neutral Evolvers, including those from the Unicorn Alliances, all left.
Hidden Black, who had abandoned the dark and turned to the light, attracted praise.
Although he withdrew from the Lone Ranger faction, he gained the support of many Lone Ranger Organizations that hoped that he could be like Wang Ye and reorganize the chaotic Lone Ranger Organizations.
“The Lone Ranger Organizations are mixed, some good and some bad. Reorganization is not recommended, but you can secretly recruit some reputable ones,” Wang Ye said to Hidden Black.
“Understood.” Hidden Black responded.
Wang Ye nodded.
There was no need to say so much to Hidden Black. He was a smart person who knew how to avoid disadvantages. He understood the general trend and respected the strong.
Seeing Hidden Black leave, Song Shirui’s eyes were still filled with confusion. She looked at Wang Ye and asked, “Is he really one of us?”
“What else could he be?” Wang Ye asked.
“Why did he join us?” Song Shirui was extremely confused.
Wang Ye looked in the direction where Hidden Black disappeared. “Two days after I defeated Arthur and established the Nine Provinces Alliance, Hidden Black took the initiative to contact me, hoping to join the Nine Provinces Alliance. I was the one who asked him to continue staying in the Lone Ranger faction and see what Fire Phoenix would do next.”
“…How did you know that the bitch would target you?” Song Shirui was shocked.
It turned out that Wang Ye had long made arrangements!
“Because I’m the pillar of the Nine Provinces Alliance and Huaxia. Once I die, their predicament is solved,” Wang Ye said. “In addition, I’ve risen to third place on the combat power ranking, right below Fire Phoenix, which makes her feel extremely uncomfortable. She’s under a lot of pressure. She’s afraid that I’ll jump and press her down at any time.”
“She’s a woman with monstrous power and is high above everyone else. Under such circumstances, she must hate me to the core. It’s normal for her to want to do something.” Wang Ye shrugged. “I just didn’t expect her to be so ruthless. She can’t win me over, so she just made a move.”
“What about Arthur?” Song Shirui understood a little.
“He was Fire Phoenix’s pawn from the beginning,” Wang Ye said with a laugh. “Although his disguise was quite convincing, it was a pity that he didn’t know that Hidden Black had joined me long ago. Their plan was exposed from the beginning.”
Song Shirui’s eyes flickered as she stared at Wang Ye. “Although 1 don’t know what’s going on, you’re really amazing!”
“Is that so? I have even more amazing things that you haven’t seen. How does it feel to break through?” Wang Ye asked with a smile.
“It’s great! I can’t believe this is my body!” Song Shirui’s face was full of excitement and disbelief. “It’s like entering a new world. I can sense my surroundings clearly, and my power is flowing out endlessly!”
“This is a perfection gene.” Wang Ye nodded. “Try to control your body and blend into the world. Then you can fly.”
“I don’t want to do it now.” Song Shirui shook her head gently.
Wang Ye was surprised. “Then what do you want to do now?”
Song Shirui’s eyes flashed with memories as she muttered to herself, “Xiao Ye, do you know that the moment you protected me today… I thought of so many things. 1 was so afraid. I was afraid of losing you. 1 was afraid that the nightmare would happen again. I was afraid that my world would sink again…”
Good heavens, was she confessing just like that?
Keep going!
Wang Ye nodded lightly and looked straight at Song Shirui.
“I broke through.” Song Shirui looked at Wang Ye and did not hide the emotions in her eyes. “It’s all thanks to you. You gave me strength and courage! It was also you who pulled me out of the abyss and gave me a new life. You gave me everything, so I want to give you everything I have.”
A flush appeared on Song Shirui’s tight face. Her chest rose and fell rapidly as she took off her combat suit.
“Tonight, I’m yours..”
