Chapter 552: Chapter 553: The New Team

Taking advantage of Xuan Jiang’s severe injuries, Lin Zhen showed no courtesy and directly used Soul Lock.

Xuan Jiang’s mind was in a trance, and Lin Zhen succeeded with one strike.

Even for Lin Zhen with his Cui Mang Early Stage spiritual power, it was still a bit difficult to lock the soul of a super-strong Soul Lock Star System Level 9, but it finally worked.

Since it worked, Xuan Jiang no longer had a chance to rebound.

“Xuan Jiang has met his master!”

After Lin Zhen successfully locked Xuan Jiang’s soul, he instantly became the most loyal subordinates in the world.

“How much money is in your bank account?” Lin Zhen’s first question was about money. He had killed so many people without gaining much, which made him a bit depressed.

“Master, most of the money in my account is for Five ghosts and Ying Huo. They rule the Sixty-eight Districts, and many of their incomes belong to them. As for me, I have about 600 billion.”

“All right, not bad.”

Lin Zhen was delighted. The 600 billion was the biggest gain he had ever robbed from others.

“Leave one billion for yourself and transfer the rest to me.”

Xuan Jiang quickly and without complaint transferred 600 billion Cosmic Crystals to Lin Zhen’s card.

Lin Zhen originally had more than 100 billion in his hands. With this, he finally broke the 200 billion mark, making great progress towards achieving his 500 billion goal.

“Master, I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Now that something has happened here, the Five ghosts will definitely take action against you. Their strength is much stronger than mine. Although you are powerful in battle, there is no certainty that you can win against the Five ghosts.”

“Oh, how much Star Power does he have?” Lin Zhen asked.

“Each of the Seven Great Evil Stars in the arena has a Star Power of more than 15,000. That’s why I told the Master to be careful.”

Lin Zhen nodded. His current strength already crushed most of the Star Systems Stage, but there were always some super geniuses in the world. According to Xuan Jiang’s words, Lin Zhen’s chances of winning against the Five ghosts were not great.

It’s better to go back to the Kirin Holy Star first. Lin Zhen had acquired many Hearts of Star Plants from here, and his Dark Star could continue to advance.

Glancing at the injured Xuan Jiang, Lin Zhen was not worried at all. He must have his own way of recovering.

“Alright, you go back where you came from. If anyone asks, just say you escaped from under my hands. Don’t reveal any clues, understand?”

“Yes, Master. I will go back and make sure nobody notices.”

“Don’t forget to continue logging in to the arena. I may need you later.”

After promising, Xuan Jiang immediately boarded the spaceship and left.

Lin Zhen did not stay at Mount Sumeru any longer, as there was nothing worth a second glance. He quickly left from the entrance and did not encounter the Five ghosts.

After leaving the mountain, Lin Zhen drove the spaceship into the air, quickly entered the Parallel Universe, and headed straight for the Kirin Holy Star.

********

“Lin Zhen has gone back to the Kirin Holy Star? Xuan Jiang is missing!”

Ye Hua angrily smashed the crystal cup in his hand to the ground, breaking it to pieces.

“Useless! They call themselves Arena Gods but are just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags!”

Like an angry lion, he paced back and forth in the room, making Tianci’s eyes dizzy.

“Ye Hua, I suggest you calm down. Lin Zhen going back to the Kirin Holy Star doesn’t mean he disappeared. He will show up sooner or later, so you don’t need to be so anxious.”

“How can I not be anxious? That kid is wandering around outside while I can’t do anything to him. If Xuan Jiang can’t beat him, who else can I find?”

As Ye Hua spoke, he glanced at Tianci: “Right, isn’t your father a high-ranking official in the arena and a Domain King level expert? Why not let him take care of Lin Zhen?”

Tianci shook his head helplessly: “I’ve talked to him, but my father won’t do it. He said Lin Zhen hadn’t done anything harmful to me, so there’s no need to take action.”

“Hmph! Lin Zhen’s being cunning. He knows he can’t mess with you easily now, so he’s holding back. Once he’s strong enough, let’s see if he’ll let you go.”

Tianci nodded: “I think you’re right, so I came to discuss with you. However, in my opinion, this matter is not difficult. When Lin Zhen returns to the arena, he’s sure to violate the interests of the Seven Great Evil Stars. At that time, all we have to do is add fuel to the fire, and they will naturally start causing trouble for Lin Zhen.”

Ye Hua gradually calmed down: “You have a point. Lin Zhen won’t be at peace when he returns. I guess he will appear in the arena soon. As long as he offends the Seven Great Evil Stars, his death won’t be far off. The seven of them teamed up, and they have killed Domain Kings.”

*********

This time Ye Hua was not wrong. After Lin Zhen returned to the Kirin Holy Star, Tianhuo’s small shop reopened, and his main body returned to the arena.

The first person to discover Lin Zhen’s return to the arena was his former teammate, Yan Qiyue.

Lin Zhen was quite happy to see Yan Qiyue and said to him, “Brother Yan, I am back to compete in the arena and plan to form a team. Come and join me.”

However, Yan Qiyue hesitated for a moment, “Lin Zhen, our team is doing pretty well right now, being able to maintain a 65% win rate. I think….”

Lin Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a smile, “It’s okay, you just focus on your own stuff. I’ll go find other people.”

Yan Qiyue nodded and walked away.

Lin Zhen sighed faintly, he originally thought that Yan Qiyue would agree immediately, but it seemed he overestimated him. He believed that if he told Yan Qiyue that the threat from Xuan Jiang was no longer present, Yan Qiyue would probably come over, but that would defeat the purpose.

When he first mentioned forming a team, Ni Ke knew that he had offended Xuan Jiang, but she still agreed without any hesitation. This was the difference.

He looked at today’s battle list, and there was another battle with a million people.

Lin Zhen spent 10,000 cosmic crystals to create a team, named Phoenix Myth, with him serving as the captain.

He immediately began adding members, with the first invitation sent to Ni Ke.

Ni Ke quickly accepted the invitation and promised to be there before the battle began.

The second invitation was sent to Zi Qianxia by Lin Zhen.

The message was replied to immediately, and Zi Qianxia seemed quite surprised that Lin Zhen would invite her to be a teammate.

“Are you really Lin Zhen?” The long-lost Zi Qianxia appeared on the virtual screen. Once a destitute Black Wing Clan princess, she now looked radiant and enchanting.

“Princess, what? Have you forgotten an old friend so quickly?” Lin Zhen asked with a smile.

“It really is you! Why would you suddenly invite me to be a teammate… Oh! I get it, wait for me. I’ll talk to my old teammates and then come right over.”

Lin Zhen’s heart warmed. It was obvious that Zi Qianxia thought Lin Zhen had offended Xuan Jiang and couldn’t find anyone else to join the team. Under such circumstances her unreserved support demonstrated a precious friendship.

In less than a minute, Zi Qianxia joined the team.

Using the team teleportation, Zi Qianxia came to Lin Zhen’s side.

“Big Love Guru, when you left the arena, I thought you might not show up again. I was quite regretful. But it turns out you’re still doing quite well.”

Zi Qianxia came to Lin Zhen’s side like an old friend, even patting him on the shoulder, although he was tall and her petite frame made the action a bit strained.

“When did I become a Big Love Guru? Don’t just randomly give me a name.”

“Hmph! Don’t say you’re not a Big Love Guru. Others might not know, but I’ve been paying attention to you all this time. What’s going on with you and our Fire Kirin Empire’s number one beauty, Feng Qingluan? Don’t tell me you’re just friends.”

Lin Zhen touched his nose awkwardly: “You’re really free.”

“Tsk! This princess isn’t that free. It’s just that you saved my life, rescued me from the slave traders, treated me well, and gave me freedom. So, I’ve been wanting to repay your kindness. At first, I even thought that if you missed Feng Qingluan too much, I could reluctantly accept you and give you a warm embrace. But it seems that’s not necessary now, you’re completely heartless.”

Lin Zhen didn’t speak for a long time. After not seeing Zi Qianxia for many years, she had become much more open, probably because she had avenged her grudge.

Her words seemed sarcastic, but in fact, she was trying to comfort Lin Zhen as in her mind, Feng Qingluan had died a long time ago.

Of course, Lin Zhen wouldn’t reveal the secret of the Phoenix Nirvana, but he appreciated Zi Qianxia’s sentiment.

“Lin Zhen, our team has three people. We still need two more, right?”

“There are more people. Let me try the next one.”

Lin Zhen immediately started contacting the next potential teammate, Long Juetian.

Although a general person couldn’t add Long Juetian, who was the emperor of a junior civilization universe, Lin Zhen, now the Duke of Fire Kirin, could naturally add him.

“You are Duke Lin Zhen?” Long Juetian, who received Lin Zhen’s invitation, seemed both surprised and excited.

“Hehe, not only am I Duke Lin Zhen, but I’m also Count Lin Zhen of the Tianhe Empire. Your Majesty, hello.”

“Ah, stop, stop, stop! Duke, you are a genius of our Tianhe Empire, the pride of the empire. I… I also feel deeply honored! How can I help you? You need teammates? Great, I’ll be right there.”

Long Juetian also agreed without hesitation and immediately joined Lin Zhen’s team.

Using team teleportation, Long Juetian appeared beside Lin Zhen.

Wearing the emperor’s dragon robe, he made Zi Qianxia stare in amazement.

“Lin Zhen, you’re really capable, your teammates are either emperors or princesses. I see the other teammate’s name is Ni Ke, and she’s not going to be another beauty, right? If that’s the case, I’m quitting. I won’t be in the same team as a big carrot like you and be infected.”

Long Juetian looked at Zi Qianxia, the great beauty, but didn’t say much. In his view, this was Lin Zhen’s private matter. Since he agreed to be Lin Zhen’s teammate, he shouldn’t interfere with such things.

Lin Zhen laughed: “Indeed, she’s a great beauty. I’ll have her teleported over.”

The next moment, Ni Ke was teleported to the side of the three people.

Zi Qianxia had been staring wide-eyed, even adjusting her hair a few times, not wanting to lose out in front of other women. Although she was very confident in her appearance, the women around Lin Zhen were all stunning, so she was still a bit worried.
