Chapter 578: Chapter 579: The Return of the King

As Xuan Jiang appeared, he suddenly fired a laser gun from his hand, hitting the decoder in motion.

The decoder was smashed and the ongoing decoding process was interrupted.

“There are only two of them, get them!”

The boss led the charge, and the battle began.

More than twenty Star System Stage warriors launched their attacks, among them three Tier Nine Star System experts. Two led a group to attack Xuan Jiang, and one led a few to attack Xilanke.

The boss waved his hand, and his body twisted and disappeared into thin air.

The fight was intense in the narrow space.

True to his status as a War God, Xuan Jiang killed an enemy almost every second. In just five seconds, five people fell under his blade.

On the other side, Xilanke fought fiercely, driving back his opponents. Suddenly, the boss appeared behind him with a wave of space distortion, and with a ghostly thrust of his sword, pierced Xilanke’s heart!

Xilanke screamed, falling to the ground and died on the spot!

In this way, Xuan Jiang had to bear even more pressure, especially the boss who was also a War God-level strongman. His strength was not inferior to Xuan Jiang’s, and could be described as almost unstoppable. Under the cover of others, Xuan Jiang was caught off guard.

In the cramped space, fierce energy turbulence stirred, making the fight extremely dangerous for everyone.

After a series of muffled noises, the battle ended.

Bodies were lying in space in all directions. Only the boss and four other survivors remained, while the rest were killed by Xuan Jiang.

Unfortunately, the boss had stabbed Xuan Jiang through the heart, killing him on the spot!

“Huh! Finally got rid of these two troublesome guys. I didn’t expect Lin Zhen to have an ace up his sleeve. Damn it!”

The boss viciously kicked Xuan Jiang’s corpse, then spat on it.

“But that’s the end of it. As a small lord, Lin Zhen’s family defenses couldn’t be any stronger, and we have backup decoders.”

Four Star System Term experts went outside, where the defending army had arrived. However, they were no match for the Star System Term experts.

The boss took out a new decoder, and after a minute of decoding, a beep sounded, and the second defensive door opened.

The boss stepped into the room, sneering at Lin Zhen’s family huddling in the corner.

“Tsk, tsk! What a happy family, with old and young members. Lin Zhen is indeed living a life that makes others jealous.”

An Ning and Su Mingyue tightly protected their children while Lin Liye and Li Qin stood in front of their daughters-in-law. An Qier and her sisters, alongside Ling’er, protected the side, all of them glaring angrily at the boss.

“There’s no need to look at me that way. You might as well know that I’m ranked third in the arena of District 55. You people who haven’t even reached the Star System Stage won’t even stand a chance against my single finger. So don’t put up a futile resistance. All of you are tender and beautiful women, and I don’t want to hurt you.”

His face suddenly darkened as he spoke: “But if you don’t know what’s good for you, I’ll make you regret being human today!”

“When Daddy comes back, he’ll definitely kill you!” Lin Mei’er cried out angrily.

“Hmph! Your daddy hasn’t been back for many years, right, little girl? Have you forgotten what your daddy looks like? Since you adore your daddy so much, I’ll start with you.”

With that said, he suddenly charged at Lin Mei’er!

Lin Mei’er was the heart of the family. Seeing the enemy attacking her, almost everyone sprang into action!

But it was useless. The huge gap in strength meant they were no match for him. In an instant, everyone was sent flying!

The boss laughed viciously as he approached Lin Mei’er: “Today I’ll turn you into a real woman! Let’s see if your damned daddy can save you!”

With a powerful hand, he grabbed at Lin Mei’er, locking space with his immense strength. She, only at War General level, was unable to make any move.

The only thing she could do was cry out in tears, “Daddy!”

The boss’s hand reached for Lin Mei’er’s developing chest, less than 10 centimeters away. It seemed like not even a god could change anything now.

The boss was already eager to taste the young girl’s charm; he even imagined the wonderful touch. His fingers slightly curved, ready for the first brutal pinch.

However, the short distance seemed to be as far away as the ends of the earth. He tried to reach out, but the distance remained the same.

What was going on…?

Behind Lin Mei’er was the smooth, bright, alloy wall which clearly reflected the shadows of the people.

He saw a figure walk through the door.

He held a bloodstained spear, obviously fresh from killing someone.

Lin Zhen!

When Lin Zhen walked in, the Lin family could hardly believe their eyes. They had all been held down by the boss’s power and could not save Lin Mei’er. Each of them felt as if their hearts were about to shatter. However, now that Lin Zhen had returned, everything was different.

With tears streaming down her large eyes, Lin Mei’er dodged the boss and quickly ran to Lin Zhen’s side, throwing herself into his arms: “Daddy, you’re finally back…wuwu!”

Lin Zhen hugged his daughter in his arms, secretly relieved.

If he had come back a little later, the situation would have been unthinkable.

But luckily, he managed to return just in time.

This incident served as a warning to Lin Zhen that even the strongest defense system was lifeless, and would never be as effective as human protection. In the future, if he could not provide a safe environment for his family, he would rather stay at home forever.

Lin Zhen originally thought he could take his family into the Dark Star Space, but after the entry of the seven Constant Stars, this plan had to be put on hold indefinitely. He could not possibly bring his family to a planet with seven suns.

Furthermore, the space had become unstable, so this plan was temporarily abandoned.

As for how to ensure his family’s safety in the future, that would have to be dealt with later. For now, he needed to solve the immediate problem.

Using his Spiritual Power to drive time standstill, he locked the space where the eldest brother was located. In that small area, time had come to a stop.

After comforting his emotionally hurt daughter, Lin Mei’er finally stopped crying, but still clung to her father like a teddy bear, refusing to let go.

Lin Zhen helped his parents up, who were also suppressed by the eldest brother’s power, but hadn’t suffered any injuries.

He then helped up his two wives. An Ning and Su Mingyue both had red eyes from crying but held back their affection since there were many people around. However, their hearts were finally at ease knowing their husband had returned.

An Qier and her sisters, as well as Ling’er, also cried. Lin Zhen could only comfort them one by one.

Lin Ping and Lin An came to their father with red eyes, saying, “Dad, we didn’t protect our sister well. You can scold us.”

“No, it’s not your fault. It’s Dad who didn’t protect you well,” Lin Zhen replied, patting his sons’ shoulders. “Do you want to take revenge for your sister?”

The two boys nodded in unison, their eyes full of hatred as they looked at the motionless eldest brother.

“This man can’t be touched now, but you can use any means you can think of to deal with him as you please!”

“Don’t worry, Dad, leave it to us!”

Lin Zhen asked his parents, wives, and daughters to leave first, as he had already cleaned up all the enemies outside and there was no more danger.

He then stayed behind with his two sons, curious to see what they would do.

After a while, Lin Ping and Lin An came back with a pile of items.

Knives, axes, charcoal fire, electric saws, and even a bucket of manure they somehow found.

Lin Zhen raised his eyebrows: “Tell me your plan.”

“This guy is so disgusting that simply killing him would be too lenient. We decided to first fill him with twenty pounds of feces, then slowly dismember him, like slaughtering a Mutated Beast.”

Lin Zhen was speechless, looking at his exultant second son, wondering who he got his exuberant personality from.

Although Lin Ping didn’t quite agree with his brother’s plan, when he thought about what this man was about to do to their sister, he didn’t insist on anything else. This was a fitting punishment.

There was clear pleading in the elder brother’s eyes. Lin Zhen could easily understand what he was asking for: a quick death.

However, Lin Zhen wouldn’t grant his wish. As a Star System Stage god, being treated like this by two underage First-level War Gods would be more unbearable than death.

Lin Zhen had always respected Martial Artists. Even if they were enemies, he would be willing to give them a quick death. But this man didn’t deserve such leniency, he had to be punished.

Locking the time standstill firmly, Lin Zhen gestured to his sons: “You can start.”

The two boys walked over excitedly. Lin Ping directly inserted a metal crowbar into the eldest brother’s mouth.

With a forceful push, the elder brother’s mouth was pried open with a crack, blood flowing out.

A large funnel was inserted into his throat, and then Lin An put on a mask and grabbed a large ladle.

“You bastards! You’ll regret ever being born!”

Shoveling it down, Lin Zhen silently turned his head away. He didn’t mind killing, but he didn’t want to witness such a scene.

The punishment lasted for a full three hours. Eventually, Lin Zhen simply closed his eyes and cultivated, never looking at the scene, leaving his sons to their own devices.

When Lin Zhen opened his eyes, he found that the room had been cleaned up and the eldest brother had completely disappeared.

“Where’s the person?” Lin Zhen asked his sons.

“We chopped him up and fed him to the dogs. Bit by bit, first a hand, then the limbs, including the fifth limb. We chopped him to pieces before finally taking his life.”

Lin Zhen waved his hand to indicate that his sons didn’t need to say anymore, as he didn’t want to hear it.

“Let’s go, let’s check on your mother, sister, and the others. Remember, you must never slack off in cultivating. Our family has many women, so when I’m not home, you have to bear the responsibility of protecting them.”

“Don’t worry, Dad, we will work hard!” The twins looked at their father with admiration in their eyes.
