Chapter 222: Chapter 222 What Are You Hanging Around in the Sky For

"What happened?" Bai Yan stared at the falling fire from the sky, burning through the Insect Clan’s deployments on the land.

The horizon, once shrouded by a dark crimson mist brought by the Insect Clan, was torn by this golden streak of light.

It also broke open the blockade surrounding the Mist Continent created by the Insect Clan warships.

"It’s an enemy attack!" A crimson lobster-man swung its massive claws.

Bai Yan frowned, her cold gaze falling on the lobster-man.

Enemy attack?

She felt these disgusting bugs were the real enemy assault.

The Insect Clan, oblivious to her thoughts, had already begun reorganizing Intelligent Worms to rebuild their defenses.

[Didn’t you say your Insect Clan reigns supreme over all creatures?] Bai Yan sought out the Insect Brain. [So even the so-called number one in the universe has enemies you can’t defeat?]

The Insect Brain sneered. [No need for sarcasm; this is a tactic I’ve used before.]

Its gaze fell on the red mist being redeployed by the Intelligent Worms to reinforce their defensive perimeter, an irritability bubbling up inside.

The Mist Continent was located on the outermost edge of the Interstellar World.

The only reason they discovered it was due to the spatial coordinates sent back by Insect Brain 1.0 during its resource planet exploration missions.

But why had the humans from the Interstellar World also found the Mist Continent so quickly?

The Insect Brain wasn’t sure who from the Interstellar World was coming this time.

Just as long as it wasn’t that one—the maniac who kept appearing on the interstellar battlefield.

That would be a nightmare!

Explosions lit up the heavens mostly above the Mist East.

Xiao Jinsheng, hiding 800 meters underground in the Star Stone Mine on the Mist West side, didn’t hear a thing.

She only saw the Heavy Sword, which the Cannibal Flower had been tightly clutching, vanish instantly upon Lou Yan Zhi’s words.

Caicai saw the Heavy Sword disappear and was utterly distraught.

It questioned furiously, "You came here? You’re not in the Thirteen District? Did you come to the Mist Continent?"

"I’m almost there," Lou Yan Zhi replied calmly, even thoughtfully showing Caicai a view outside his spacecraft.

Countless Insect Clan warships swirled around the Mist Continent.

They swiftly and systematically pierced through the outermost layer of mist and began landing in various areas of the continent.

"Do you realize you’re just creating more trouble?" Caicai snapped angrily. "The Mist Continent is already a nightmare, and now you’re here stirring the pot."

"By leaving the Thirteen District, you’re practically pointing everyone toward the Mist Continent!"

"The Mist Continent’s existence isn’t something only you and I know." Lou Yan Zhi explained patiently, "The fact that the Insect Clan abandoned the interstellar battlefront to invade this world proves it holds resources far more valuable than anything in the Interstellar World."

"The unusual behavior of the Insect Clan will surely attract the attention of interstellar forces as well."

"I came because some forces have already set out for the Mist Continent before me."

"Can you confirm which forces?" Caicai asked nervously, "Are they friendly or hostile?"

"Does it matter if they’re good or bad?" Lou Yan Zhi chuckled, "The Mist Continent’s exposure due to the Insect Clan means interstellar forces seeking profit will arrive. Some may act out of humanitarian aid for the Mist Continent, but others will operate like the Insect Clan, aiming to occupy and control."

"Good or bad, right or wrong—they’re all just different standpoints of varying factions."

"Right now, time is the crucial factor."

"The question is whether the first interstellar humans to arrive at the Mist Continent will be allies or enemies."

"Then what are you waiting for, hanging in midair? Get down here already!" Caicai shouted.

Lou Yan Zhi, the lunatic.

Caicai didn’t want him interacting with Xiao Jinsheng.

But now that he was already here, and with the Mist Continent in desperate need of fighting power—

Well, might as well make use of such a beast.

"Don’t worry about me." Lou Yan Zhi’s gaze rested on the virtual screen showing the Insect Clan warships.

He turned to Xiao Jinsheng and smiled. "A pleasure to meet you. I don’t have much to give you."

"So I brought some interstellar specialties."

"Huh?" Xiao Jinsheng was puzzled.

At that moment, the video call with Caicai timed out, the connection abruptly cut.

Reconnecting would cost another fifty thousand points.

Caicai stared at the points it had scraped together with great effort, too stingy to use them.

Nothing could now stop Lou Yan Zhi.

Caicai warned Xiao Jinsheng, "My Host might be here, but don’t get involved with him."

"Wouldn’t that seem impolite?" Xiao Jinsheng asked, confused. "Does he have... certain issues?"

Caicai fell silent before reluctantly explaining, "He doesn’t have any particular issues—he’s just a bit unhinged from killing too many Insect Clan."

"And then... well... to be honest, it’s because..." Caicai hesitated, torn on whether to spill the truth.

"Because of what?" Xiao Jinsheng pressed.

"Because he’s a lunatic," Caicai muttered.

"And I don’t get along with him."

"But you and I get along great."

"I’m worried he’ll channel his hatred of me toward you."

The more Caicai spoke, the more flustered it became.

Noticing Xiao Jinsheng’s horrified expression, it quickly tried to console her. "But don’t worry. I still have control over him."

"You’re Host and System—how could you have such friction?" Xiao Jinsheng was bewildered.

At this, Caicai gave a sheepish laugh. "We’re just fundamentally incompatible. It’s like... bad destiny."

"Anyway, since he’s already here and very useful, you might as well make the most of him."

"Just don’t get too close to him."

Still uneasy, Caicai even warned Chen Yunji, "Make sure to tell everyone else to keep their guard up around my Host."

Noticing Caicai’s unusual behavior, Xiao Jinsheng grew even more curious about its grudge with Lou Yan Zhi.

But seeing that Caicai had no intentions of elaborating, Xiao Jinsheng dismissed her curiosity.

Still, she couldn’t help but worry when she heard Caicai mention the grudge.

"If you have a grudge against him, does that mean he’s a threat to you?" she asked cautiously.

"Not really. He just flies into impotent rage around me." Caicai grinned cheekily.

Xiao Jinsheng was speechless.

She suspected, perhaps, maybe, possibly—she could guess the nature of the conflict between them.

Though she wasn’t sure she’d get the chance to verify it.

And she still didn’t know what Lou Yan Zhi meant by "interstellar specialties."

Her main task remained mining Star Stones.

Using tools to dig them up one by one was far too slow.

Thinking that the Star Stone Mine was a single unified entity, it felt like a waste to shatter it into pieces just to fit it into her Realm.

Since it was whole, could she just absorb it directly into her Realm?

With this idea in mind, Xiao Jinsheng pressed her hands against the glossy surface of the Star Stone Mine, calming herself to perceive its edges.

At her touch, the Star Stone Energy surged madly into her body.

Her Plundering Superpower, along with her Star Level, broke through to Thirteen Stars amidst the intense influx of energy.

For a moment, Xiao Jinsheng’s consciousness plunged into black and white, a pounding resonance echoing through her mind from the Superpower’s enhancement.

It took her some time to settle down from the overwhelming sensation.

When she turned back, Chen Yunji was holding her arm, looking at her with deep concern.

Before she could even process the strange feeling, the Star Stone Mine she had touched was disintegrating directly into colored energy, pouring into her Realm.

In the cramped underground space, the absence of the Star Stone revealed a vast, yawning darkness.

Without the Star Stone’s support, sand and massive rocks came crashing down.

The Star Stone Mine collapsed into an 800-meter deep sinkhole underground.

Before she could be buried alive, Xiao Jinsheng quickly shoved Chen Yunji, Caicai, and the Cannibal Flower into her Realm, while simultaneously pulling out Li.
