Super God Golden Crow Record

Chapter 68 Melo Star

When Zhao Chen woke up, he found himself lying on a bed. Liang Bing was curled up on the edge of his bed, her long, beautiful black hair casually draped over her shoulders, her head resting on her arm, her breathing light and long.

As soon as Zhao Chen made a move, Liang Bing immediately woke up.

"Brother-in-law." She stood up abruptly, her voice still a little hoarse, "Wait here, I'll go get my sister."

After saying that, she ran out without looking back, not even taking the sword that was on the table.

Hey! Hey! Zhao Chen wanted to call out to stop her, but Liang Bing had already disappeared.

Not long after, Liang Bing hurriedly led Keisha and He Xi in. Keisha walked in first, her long golden hair cascading down her waist, her silver wings folded behind her, but her face remained expressionless. He Xi followed closely behind, her long silver hair flowing in the wind, her breathing slightly rapid; she had come directly from her residence.

Liang Bing deliberately lagged behind. After entering, she slammed the door shut behind her, leaning against it as if she were watching a good show.

Keisha stood in front of the bed, looking down at Zhao Chen with a serious expression.

"Are the things Hua Ye said true or not?"

"Which part?" Zhao Chen asked guiltily.

"All of them." Keisha's voice was calm, but Zhao Chen could sense the hidden rage within it. "You devoured all the female angels who died on the battlefield. Is that true?"

"Yes, Zhao Chen did not try to deny it."

Her icy fingers clenched tightly. He Xi paused slightly, said nothing, walked to the bedside and sat down, her silver eyes staring straight at Zhao Chen, without anger, without disappointment, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

Keisha, barely suppressing her anger, asked again, "Just how many people have you devoured before? All the male and female angels who died in battle, did you devour them all?"

"Yes."

Why did you keep it from us?

Zhao Chen remained silent for a long time. "If I told you, would you still let me continue?"

Keisha did not answer Zhao Chen's question.

"Actually, I did this to help you. If I can't quickly improve my strength, you simply won't be able to win this battle." Zhao Chen tried to evade the question. Leaving aside the fact that the two sides have 300,000 troops against 10,000, just considering Hua Ye's strength—a peak third-generation divine body—how can you possibly win?

The longer the war drags on, the more people will die. Therefore, I need power to quickly grow stronger. Those who have already died, rather than letting their bodies turn to dust with time, are better transformed into part of my power, continuing to fight for the cause of the righteous army in another form.

Keisha stared at Zhao Chen for a long time, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"How dare you utter such high-sounding words?"

"To overthrow Hua Ye as soon as possible, to end the war, and to liberate those who have suffered oppression, I have no regrets." Zhao Chen tore at the tiger skin to make himself a coat.

Keisha felt that Zhao Chen was beyond redemption, just like some extreme terrorists who founded cults to overthrow Hua Ye during his reign.

Unfortunately, they were wiped out before they could cause much trouble. If they still existed, Zhao Chen would have encountered them first. Keisha believed they would have a lot to talk about, and Zhao Chen wouldn't even need to undergo any training to join.

If Zhao Chen knew what Keisha was thinking right now, he would definitely mutter, "I just made this up to fool you, big sister. Besides, this place is full of beautiful women, who would want to join a bunch of rough men? Unless I'm the leader."

He Xi spoke then. Her voice was calm. "What about the ultimate fear Hua Ye mentioned? He said you will kill everyone in the future, just to devour them and increase your strength?"

Zhao Chen was also puzzled. When did I become the ultimate fear? Logically speaking, if it represents a living being, it's most likely a giant insect. If living beings aren't also related to the void, how did it get involved with him?

But he still had to get past He Xi. He could only vaguely reply, "How would I know about the future? Am I that kind of person?" Even as he said this, Zhao Chen seemed a little unsure of himself. He figured Hua Ye was probably trying to sow discord to deal with him first.

He Xi nodded and said nothing more.

Liang Bing, however, sided with Zhao Chen, saying, "Sister, I think my brother-in-law is right. Those who died would be happy if they knew they could have prevented more people from dying."

Shut up! Liang Bing, you also make such extreme remarks?

The ice cream wilted instantly.

Keisha remained silent for a long time.

"From today onwards, you are not allowed to leave Merlo Star." Keisha's voice was very serious. "If I ever find you daring to devour any life form, friend or foe, I will lock you up, and you will be forbidden from cultivating. Of course, given your strength, you can also choose to devour me as well."

Faced with Keisha's anger, Zhao Chen didn't dare to argue.

Keisha snorted coldly and turned to leave. He Xi followed her out.

Only Liang Bing remained in the room.

Brother-in-law, don't worry, my sister was just angry.

Zhao Chen nodded. "Where am I?"

Didn't my sister say so? This is Planet Melo. Brother-in-law, you've been unconscious for three days, and I've been taking care of you these past three days. Liang Bing looked at me like I was exhausted.

It seems they did say that, and even told me not to leave. Zhao Chen was somewhat troubled.

Liang Bing continued rambling on, "Brother-in-law, I feel like what you just said makes a lot of sense." Liang Bing looked like she agreed.

Oh no! Does Liang Bing have a talent for these unorthodox methods? What if Keisha says I taught her? The thought gave Zhao Chen a headache. "Liang Bing, you should go out first. I want to be alone."

"Oh, okay. Brother-in-law, call me if you need anything." Liang Bing left, still somewhat reluctant to leave.

Zhao Chen lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, and closed his eyes.

When Zhao Chen came out of the wooden house, the sunlight was a bit dazzling.

The reconstruction of Planet Melo has begun. The female angels are clearing the ruins, building houses, and testing equipment. When Zhao Chen walked by, everyone stopped and stepped aside to let him pass, their eyes filled with vigilance.

As he walked across the training ground, everyone there sheathed their swords, staring at him silently with icy gazes. Several young angels were gathered together, whispering amongst themselves, their eyes occasionally sweeping over his side.

Ruoning walked over from the training ground. Her brown curly hair fluttered slightly in the wind, and her silver armor gleamed coldly in the sunlight. She sheathed her sword, her hand on the hilt, and walked up to Zhao Chen.

"You should know why they see you that way, right?"

"I knew it, but I didn't expect it to be this powerful," Zhao Chen said with a wry smile.

Princess Liangbing told me to wait for you to come out and tell you that the defeated male angel is being judged. If you have time, you can go and see him, and relax a bit. With that, Ruoning turned and left.

Zhao Chen did not go to watch the trial. He didn't want to go where there were many female angels and face everyone's strange looks. He sat on a rock on the secluded edge of the camp, his divine sense spreading out and covering the entire planet Merlo.

Keisha was standing on the high platform, reading out the verdict.

"Hua Ye has been defeated. I hereby declare that all male angels who once followed Hua Ye are exiled from the Angel Nebula. From this day forward, the Angel Nebula will no longer have any heavenly order."

As Hua Ye was being led onto the transport ship, he glanced back in the direction of Merlo Star. "Keisha, you've won this time, but I will prove in the future just how foolish your decision was!" Sumali followed behind Hua Ye, her dark golden medium-length hair disheveled and obscuring half her face. She turned and took one last look in the direction of Merlo Star before boarding the ship. They would be exiled to different places.

Zhao Chen watched the direction in which the spaceships disappeared, but did not intervene. No one would believe him now, no matter what he said.

In the past, Zhao Chen would definitely have killed these male angels to prevent future troubles, but now his position among the female angels is somewhat precarious, so it's best not to cause any more trouble. In any case, Hua Ye can't stir up any waves in front of his own primordial system.

The male angels were expelled from the Angel Nebula, and Keisha's righteous order was about to be established.

The days passed by.

The reconstruction of Mero Star is progressing slowly. He Xi's space-based computing cluster has also begun to be built, and the mining of dark energy veins has officially entered the right track.

Keisha was overseeing the construction of Melos, Liang Bing was training new recruits on the training field, and Ruoning was leading a commando team on border patrols. Everything was progressing in a positive direction.

Zhao Chen was left with nothing to do but cultivate by absorbing the power of the stars at night. During the day, he helped He Xi smelt some rare metals, and the two rarely spoke to each other.

Liang Bing would occasionally come to see him. She would bring back some little things from outside, and then sit next to him and talk for a long time. Zhao Chen would just listen quietly, occasionally replying with a word. When Liang Bing left, she was still a little worried, saying, "Brother-in-law, don't be too bored, go out for a walk more often."

Zhao Chen felt uncomfortable under the gazes from outside, so he decided not to go out.

Keisha would occasionally come to Zhao Chen's room late at night and sit for a while. But she wouldn't speak, and would just sit next to him, sulking. Zhao Chen would put his arm around her, and the two of them would sit there quietly.

The reconstruction of Mero took more than a year.

Keisha built the new city atop the highest mountain on the planet Melo, with white palaces stretching from the summit to the mountainside, their silver spires gleaming in the sunlight. Liang Bing was responsible for guarding the outer perimeter of the palace, while Ruoning was in charge of its defense.

The day the three kings were officially enthroned was set on a clear morning.

That day, Keisha stood atop the palace, her silver wings unfurled behind her, her long golden hair swaying gently in the morning breeze. He Xi stood to her left, her long silver hair flowing in the wind, her white armor gleaming in the sunlight. Liang Bing stood on the far right, her long, glossy black hair swaying in the wind, her armor polished to a gleaming shine.

Heavenly Blade King, Keisha. Heavenly Base King, He Xi. Heavenly Revelation King, Liang Bing. Today, they officially return to their thrones!

Zhao Chen stood at the back of the crowd, watching them ascend the throne step by step. The female angels in the square stood in perfect unison below, swearing their allegiance.

Looking at Keisha's familiar yet unfamiliar figure, Zhao Chen recalled the way she looked when he rescued her from the Heavenly City Star Prison. At that time, she was on the verge of death, covered in wounds, but her eyes were resolute. When she said "I agree," she still looked so young and innocent.

But now she is the queen.

Zhao Chen turned around and silently left from behind the crowd.
