Age of Evolution

Chapter 203 - 203: 203: Great Divine Sect

Over the past few years, technology has recovered rapidly, and several satellites have been successfully launched into space, allowing Martial Artists from various Base Cities to connect to the internet. Although the network signal is not as good as it was during the AD era, it is almost the same.

Inside the fighter, two people were drinking face to face, drinking while watching the fighting below through a large screen within the saucer that can connect to satellite signals.

The clothes of these two were somewhat similar, both wearing black robes embroidered with a boundless starry sky, which was the attire exclusive to the top echelon of Gods Clan.

One of them was Gongsun Du, the head of God’s Grace Cathedral in Capital Base City, and the other was Allen, the head of St. Sophia Cathedral in Ice City Base City.

Seeing Lin Zhen and Yue Zhenhua tangled in battle, although they were at a disadvantage, they still stubbornly resisted and occasionally launched fierce counterattacks that Made Yue Zhenhua a little flustered. Gongsun Du slightly nodded.

“Allen, what do you think of this Lin Zhen?”

Allen, in his fifties, took a sip of red wine in his glass: “He’s stronger than Tang

“Hmm, it’s a pity that Tang Yu fell in the Star Fruit Tree. Unfortunately, we still don’t know who the murderer is. We don’t even know if it was a person or an insect.”

Allen thought for a moment: “Important figures in our Gods Clan have soul brands, with their own spiritual power marks on them. Tang Yu’s soul brand shattered a few months ago. Someone must have killed him. He wouldn’t die in the hands of those insects. I’m absolutely sure about that.”

Gongsun Du also nodded: “Indeed, I’ve seen Tang Yu too. I would be the first to not believe that he was killed by insects unless he was seeking death.”

Speaking of this, Gongsun Du suddenly looked at Allen: “Could it be that you have a suspect?”

Allen’s gaze flickered a little: “Tang Yu liked Yue’er.”

“You mean Yue’er? That’s impossible. Men who like Yue’er could probably line up from Ice City to Capital. Moreover, Ming Yue has always been indifferent to any man. Do you think Yue’er would take action just because Tang Yu liked her? Ridiculous.” Gongsun Du dismissed the idea.

“Brother Gongsun, I didn’t say it was Yue’er. That girl is kind-hearted. She wouldn’t even casually kill a bad person, let alone Tang Yu. Of course, it’s impossible for her. But you have to admit one thing. If Yue’er didn’t know Lin Zhen, the only boy she might know was Tang Yu. If Yue’er found her other half in the future, Tang Yu would have had a high possibility, right?”

Gongsun Du thought for a moment and slightly nodded: “Although I don’t quite agree with you, if it is really like that, there would be no other option… So you mean?”

“Yes, I mean him. He has the motive and the ability. Just by his ability to temporarily survive under Yue Zhenhua’s attack, he is a big suspect.”

Gongsun Du looked down only to see Lin Zhen starting to show a bit of fatigue under Yue Zhenhua’s fierce attack, but their fighting location had already changed from the fifth to the third-level platform, almost halfway there.

As long as Lin Zhen persisted through the last three levels, he might have a real chance of escaping under Yue Zhenhua’s attack.

After hearing Allen’s analysis, Gongsun Du also thought it made sense. He was clear about Tang Yu’s abilities, and there were only a few people who could kill him among the students.

According to the news from inside the Star Fruit Tree, Tang Yu had even entered the Sky Dome under Yue Feng’s command. Yue Feng certainly wouldn’t kill his subordinate for no reason. So the person who could kill Tang Yu almost became apparent.

Lin Zhen was the most suspicious, although there was no evidence.

Once you suspect something, you don’t need too much evidence – your belief is the evidence.

Gongsun Du looked at Allen: “Allen, you and I have been old friends. Yue’er and Tang Yu have met since they were children. We even once laughed and talked about the possibility of them getting together when they grew up. But unfortunately, Yue’er didn’t understand, and in the end, it was destined not to happen. I know my disciple. She is stubborn. Once she chooses Lin Zhen, she probably won’t change her mind. If Lin Zhen dies, Yue’er will certainly do something reckless, so you can’t take action.”

Allen poured another glass of red wine, drank it in one gulp, and said to Gongsun Du: “Old brother, I also know the importance of this matter. After all, it’s just my guess, it can’t be taken seriously. But when I think that Tang Yu might have died at his hands, I feel uncomfortable in my heart. I raised him personally, and I believe that Lin Zhen is not worthy of Yue’er.”

With this, Gongsun Du wholeheartedly agreed. Su Mingyue was the one he raised by hand, teaching her martial arts and everything a Saintess should do. He was both a master and a father to her, and Su Mingyue was both a disciple and a daughter to him.

From a young age, Su Mingyue had shown extraordinary talent and was a rare prodigy. Furthermore, as she entered her blooming age, she became even more beautiful. According to Gongsun Du’s inner thoughts, she was a calamity to the nation.

Moreover, Su Mingyue was kind, obedient, and well-behaved ordinarily. Such a disciple and daughter were simply the apple of Gongsun Du’s eye. Now, Lin Zhen, this brat, had snatched her away. The thought of Su Mingyue possibly leaving him and Gods Clan to marry Lin Zhen made him extremely unhappy.

Why should his painstaking effort and resources be taken away by Lin Zhen? This was nothing but daylight robbery, something he couldn’t agree to!

But thinking of Su Mingyue’s stubbornness made Gongsun Du’s head ache. Trying to forcefully stop this might cause trouble.

Seeing the changing expressions on Gongsun Du’s face, Allen suddenly laughed: “Old Brother Gongsun, do you know about the drama inside the Star Fruit Tree in recent days?”

“I know a bit about it,” Gongsun Du nodded. Ye Lanshan had come out and told him most of the details.

“That makes it easy. You do me a favor, and it’s doing you a favor too. If Tang Yu can’t get it, neither should this kid get it easily. That would also give me some satisfaction.”

As he spoke, Allen talked to Gongsun Du for a while, and Gongsun Du thought for a moment before slightly nodding.

“Alright, since Brother Gongsun has agreed, I have nothing else to do, so I’ll take my leave now.”

As he spoke, Allen lifted his foot and disappeared, stepping on the empty air as he moved, quickly disappearing.

As a powerful figure in the Ice City Great Divine Sect, Allen was also a Star Realm expert capable of flying and teleporting.

Gongsun Du sighed and turned to look at Lin Zhen’s side, where the fight with Yue Zhenhua had already reached the first platform below.

As their fight drew closer to the ground, those below who were supporting Lin Zhen began to see hope.

In their view, Lin Zhen was very hard to deal with. If they had fought head-on, Yue Zhenhua might have been able to finish him off within a minute, but this kid was not the type to fight without thinking; he was as slippery as an eel.

Whenever Yue Zhenhua launched a ferocious attack, Lin Zhen would fly and teleport, occasionally dazzling his opponent with a flash of light from his eyes. With the help of that electric current, his speed was not much slower than his own, making it difficult for Yue Zhenhua to land a decisive blow, especially in this downward environment.

Sometimes when Yue Zhenhua attacked fiercely, Lin Zhen would suddenly defend himself tightly. After a series of in tense collisions, Yue Zhenhua still couldn’t bring him down, and Lin Zhen’s defense seemed unbreakable, which gave Yue Zhenhua a headache.

Whenever Yue Zhenhua used his full strength, Lin Zhen would flee. Although Yue Zhenhua managed to land a few blows in the process, they only slightly injured Lin Zhen and were not fatal. Lin Zhen continued to run as fast as a rabbit.

As the two sides fought back and forth, they gradually fought their way down to the first platform below, already not far from the ground, and they could even see the expressions on the faces of the people below.

Su Mingyue tightly clenched her fists, and her heart was filled with joy. Lin Zhen was actually able to escape from Yue Zhenhua’s pursuit.

“Clang clang clang clang!”

After several collisions, Lin Zhen retreated with the help of the force, already only fifty or sixty meters from the ground. There was a turn here, which perfectly covered the crowd, making the stairway suddenly widen.

“Yue Zhenhua, it seems like you don’t have a chance today.” Lin Zhen laughed lightly, with a few sword wounds on his body, but he was still in no serious danger.

“Is that so? I think otherwise. The scenery here is nice, it’ll be a good place to bury your bones.” Yue Zhenhua suddenly rushed over, and in the blink of an eye, a violent wind erupted around Lin Zhen, enveloping him.

“Ah! This is the Wind Element!” Lin Zhen was shocked.

“Hahaha, that’s right. You should know that I also came out of this Star Fruit Tree and absorbed special stargems. I’ve mastered this Wind Element for years but rarely used it in front of others. Now it’s finally come in handy, Lin Zhen! Did you really think you could escape under my attacks? I deliberately led you here, so that just like how you treated Feng’er yesterday, I could make you despair right when you see hope. Letting her die in front of me, and now I want you to die in front of that stinky girl!”

“Become the offering of Gale!”

The hurricane roared wildly, forming a tornado within a hundred meter range inside the staircase. This distance was just the limit of Lin Zhen’s instantaneous movement, which could not exceed more than fifty meters.

His body was immediately sucked into the hurricane, losing control.

The wind spun in circles, like a tornado, and with the airflow, Lin Zhen’s body quickly rose to the top of the sky.

Lin Zhen gripped the Star Weapon Spear, unable to teleport or fly, hoping to use the spear to secure himself to a tree to stabilize his body first.

“Hahaha! Useless! Reverse Cyclone!”

The tornado suddenly changed as the airflow began to rotate in the opposite direction, pulling Lin Zhen’s body towards Yue Zhenhua one loop at a time.

Yue Zhenhua sneered, his sword glowing with a green light as a huge Sword Gang gradually formed.

“Gale Slash! He’s going to use Gale Slash!”

The Gale Slash was an exclusive martial art created by Chen Fenglie, and many sword -wielding martial artists considered it the most difficult sword technique to learn. Yet Yue Zhenhua had also mastered it.

“Lin Zhen, the eye of the hurricane is me. When you get close to me, take my Gale Slash and see if you can still withstand it!”

The people below held their breath watching this scene. Su Mingyue covered her mouth, not daring to breathe, fearing that it would affect Lin Zhen’s state.

Guo MO had always felt that Yue Zhenhua wouldn’t let Lin Zhen run to this level so easily. He didn’t expect that Yue Zhenhua would plan this, letting Lin Zhen die when he was on the verge of hope. This was truly brutal.

However, he too couldn’t intervene at this moment, so he put away the diploma he had earlier prepared to award Lin Zhen, guessing that it wouldn’t be needed.

A Third-Level War God would absolutely be unable to escape from Yue

Zhenhua’s cyclonic airflow, and when Lin Zhen fell, it would be the moment he

faced the Gale Slash..
