Chapter 589: Chapter 490: Two World Kings

Zhu Lingshan took the knife from Lin Zhen’s hand, still somewhat hesitant.

At this moment, the white-haired World King in front spoke: “Martial Artists act without hesitation; constantly worrying about consequences will only limit achievements. Staying true to the original essence of martial arts is the key.”

Lin Zhen glanced at the World King and nodded at Zhu Lingshan: “Go ahead.”

Zhu Lingshan’s eyes became firm, thinking about the harm Sun Liang and Zhu Xiaodie had done to her; she no longer had any scruples and walked forward.

“Sun Liang! You deserve this knife!”

“Puff!”

The knife fell, a flash of fire, and Sun Liang’s arm fell to the ground.

Sun Liang had always been quite arrogant, assuming that even if his arm fell off, it would grow back, so he pretended to be calm and didn’t care.

But after the blade fell, a wisp of flame erupted from the blade, a deep cyan flame that quickly burned the wound!

Sun Liang immediately screamed, trying to put out the fire, but the fire was like a devilish flame that couldn’t be extinguished. It seemed to quickly spread on his body.

The White-Haired King looked at Lin Zhen: “You can’t kill people in the queue area, that’s enough.”

Lin Zhen nodded, raised his hand, and the fire slowly went out.

Although the flame was extinguished, Sun Liang’s arm tissue had been completely destroyed, losing its regenerative ability under the powerful flame.

This wound would not recover without decades or even a hundred years of healing.

“Ahh~! My arm is destroyed, I have no hand!”

Sun Liang screamed loudly, Zhu Xiaodie looked at his appearance, couldn’t help but step back, and already had the intention to leave him.

Seeing Zhu Xiaodie’s reaction, Sun Liang grabbed her angrily: “You little bitch! Just because my hand is gone, you want to dump me, right? If it wasn’t for you, would I have taken this knife willingly? You owe me for the rest of your life and can’t leave me for even a step!”

Although it was Lin Zhen and Zhu Lingshan who hurt him, he didn’t have the courage to confront Lin Zhen, so he directed all his anger at his woman.

Zhu Xiaodie’s eyes rolled back as she was choked but dared not retort. After all, Sun Liang was still a Star System Stage expert. Even though he had become crippled, he was still beyond her.

However, she had already secretly decided that once Sun Liang’s strength was heavily damaged, and she advanced to the Star System Stage, she would find an opportunity to get rid of him.

Both the scumbag and the cheap woman continued to tangle and left. They probably wouldn’t try to break through the Heavenly Gate again.

Watching the pair leave, Zhu Lingshan was in a daze for a while, and suddenly felt her eyes getting moist.

Lin Zhen took the knife from Zhu Lingshan’s hand: “No need to feel guilty. Treat people the way they deserve. To deal with people like this, you need to be ruthless, or they’ll take you for granted.”

“Thank you, young brother. I don’t even know your name yet.”

“Lin Zhen, from the Fire Kirin.”

After briefly introducing himself, Lin Zhen pointed to the white-haired World King: “I think you should also thank this senior. He also spoke up for you. Otherwise, things might not have gone so smoothly.”

Zhu Lingshan immediately expressed her gratitude. She knew that the World King had helped her, whether it was because of Lin Zhen or not. She needed to show her appreciation.

The World King casually waved his hand at Zhu Lingshan: “It’s a small matter and not worth mentioning. Girl, you can go about your business; I’ll chat with this young man.”

Zhu Lingshan hesitated for a moment, then her gaze fell on Lin Zhen.

In her view, Lin Zhen was strong, handsome, and kind. She was also beautiful and charming. If the two spent time together, they might end up together. Moreover, Lin Zhen had helped her, she really didn’t want to leave.

The white-haired World King laughed: “Young lady, one must know their own worth. You may be a talented woman, but you don’t compare to the elite. Stop daydreaming about this man; being able to meet him today is your destiny. Just be a good friend.”

Lin Zhen also smiled at Zhu Lingshan: “Let’s add each other as Dimensional Universe friends. In the future, we can get together. I’ll meet you with my three wives.”

Zhu Lingshan’s face darkened for a moment, but she quickly adjusted.

Indeed, Lin Zhen was able to reach 400,000 kilometers on his first attempt to break through the Heavenly Gate. He was destined for greatness and wasn’t someone she could match up to.

Though she didn’t mind Lin Zhen having three wives, she couldn’t help feeling a bit upset. She left Lin Zhen’s Dimensional Universe contact information, and if they had a chance to meet in the future, she wanted to see what kind of outstanding women his wives really were.

After they had added each other as friends, Zhu Lingshan left. She had to cultivate. It is still unknown whether she can break through the Heavenly Gate with more than 800 years left.

After Zhu Lingshan left, the World King greeted Lin Zhen, “Come, come, come, little brother, sit down, let’s have a chat.”

“Hehe, okay, then let’s chat with the senior.”

Lin Zhen directly sat next to the World King and asked, “What should I call the senior?”

“I am Si Renjie, others call me Gale World King.”

“Senior Si, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Coincidentally, the first martial arts school I joined was named Gale too.”

“Haha, I also thought you looked like a good guy. I just heard that you are from the Fire Kirin?”

“Yes, I come from the Fire Kirin Empire, and the Sagittarius Star Nebula is actually where my hometown is located.”

“Well, I came from the Haiya Empire, and the Fire Kirin, I’ve been there once before. There is an old friend here called Tian Haoyu, he is the emperor here, do you know him?”

“It turns out that Senior knows our emperor. Of course, I know him. Speaking of which, I am a Fire Kirin Duke, but I haven’t enjoyed any duke treatment these years. I should really have a talk with Emperor Tian Haoyu.”

“Hahaha! Alright, let’s bring him over then.”

Si Renjie was straightforward and actually found Tian Haoyu through the Dimensional Universe.

As the local snake, Tian Haoyu naturally occupied a front-row seat and quickly ran over.

“Old Si, what’s the hurry in calling me over? You know, if I leave for too long, my seat is likely to be taken by someone else.”

“What’s the rush? I’m letting you meet someone you know. Take a look, do you know this little brother?”

Tian Haoyu glanced and was suddenly stunned, “Lin Zhen! You’re actually with Brother Si? How did you get to know him?”

“Are you playing dumb as an emperor? Didn’t you see Lin Zhen just breaking through the Heavenly Gate? Forty-two thousand kilometers, that’s displayed on the first screen on the left side, isn’t that right here with me?”

Tian Haoyu nodded, “Yes, yes, Lin Zhen burst through the Heavenly Gate just now. Lin Zhen, you don’t know how excited I was just now. I told the World King beside me that this person comes from our empire. It made the surrounding kings quite envious. Hehe! You have really brought face to the empire!”

Speaking of which, he suddenly said, “Did Old Si blackmail you of your money? You really shouldn’t have paid for a seat here. You have my Dimensional Universe Number. Would I charge you if you came to me? Let’s break through as many times as we want. Old Si, hurry up and spit out the money you blackmailed from Lin Zhen.”

“Hey! Hey! Hey! I didn’t blackmail him, after all, I didn’t know Lin Zhen before. I only charged him three billion. Tian Haoyu, your place charges up to five billion, right? Mine is the cheapest.”

“Ah! You dare to secretly lower the price? No wonder the business has been getting less and less lately. No, you have to compensate me.”

Looking at the two World Kings bickering like children, Lin Zhen laughed heartily, feeling much more cheerful.

World Kings are also human. In the eyes of others, they are high above, but in front of their peers, they are no different from ordinary people.

Lin Zhen certainly would not ask Si Renjie for the money back. That’s a separate matter.

They joked for a while, then Tian Haoyu simply swapped seats with the World King next to Gale World King. Several people sat together and told Lin Zhen not to leave, so he stayed there to cultivate.

Lin Zhen naturally couldn’t ask for anything better. Being with two World Kings was not only extremely safe but also very beneficial for cultivation. After all, their experience and strength were not something Lin Zhen could compare with.

Tian Haoyu suddenly said to Lin Zhen, “Lin Zhen, tell me the truth. When you broke through the Heavenly Gate just now, did you deliberately hide your strength? I feel like you could have gone up a bit more.”

Si Renjie nodded repeatedly, “That’s right, I also have this feeling. Although he doesn’t seem to have any flaws, if you observe carefully, when he broke through the 400,000 kilometers, his forward speed dropped a bit abruptly. At that time, I was just suspicious, but now that you mention it, I think it’s really possible.”

Tian Haoyu added, “Old Si, you don’t know how talented this kid is. During the war between our empire and the Demon Insect Empire, he single-handedly killed over a hundred million demon insects, many of them at the Star System Stage and even Tier Nine Star System. I knew then that he must have more cards up his sleeve.”

Looking at the two detailed analysis of the World Kings, Lin Zhen smiled bitterly, “Can you two seniors leave me some privacy? In any case, I just want to say, I can’t break through the Heavenly Gate now, so… it’s better to hide my clumsiness behind my poor performance. I hope you two can understand.”

The two World King powerhouses looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.

They initially only had a little suspicion, but they didn’t expect Lin Zhen to admit it generously.

Breaking through the Heavenly Gate for the first time, 400,000 kilometers wasn’t even his limit. That means, Lin Zhen could at least break through 500,000 kilometers!

Tian Haoyu sighed, “Lin, my brother, everyone knows the difficulty of breaking through the Heavenly Gate. No one dares to say that they can break through for sure. But now, I can guarantee that as long as you have some more time to cultivate, you will be able to surpass the Heavenly Gate and go to the Original World.”

“I can guarantee it too. Lin Zhen has great potential. Hey, brother, are you planning to break through the Heavenly Gate in the Black Hole Period? That’s a bit too shocking.”

Si Renjie thought for a moment before saying, “Lin Zhen, however, you also have a competitor from the Sorcerer Empire, Ke Xiangnan, who is also in the Black Hole Period. He broke through 510,000 kilometers for the first time, and if nothing goes wrong, he will definitely go to the Original World.”

Tian Haoyu also nodded, his face a little heavy, “Lin Zhen, Ke Xiangnan is just like you and me, with the Fire Kirin Bloodline. If we all go to the Original World, we will still be the same race, so the competition between you two… might be fierce!”
