Is there no future for a female immortal? I rely on farming to achieve immortality.

******

Tianyuan, a certain area.

Bang!

Luo Xiaoqi used the Spirit Essence Spear to pierce the head of a Demon Blade Mantis.

He immediately flipped his wrist, flicked the tip of his spear upwards, and casually tossed the corpse of the Demon Blade Mantis aside. Then he engaged in a fierce battle with the other Zerg that had surrounded him.

"Brother, there are too many Zerg here, what should we do?"

Luo Xiaoqi glanced around warily.

There are too many Zerg here; countless Zerg gather around them, and they simply can't kill them all.

At this moment, Luo Xiaoqi, Luo Chen, Fang Minghe, Zhong Kui, and the other six members of the seven teams, excluding Su Yang, surrounded Ji Yanmei in the center.

"Captain, we've almost completely depleted of our spiritual energy. We can't possibly handle these insectoids! Should we...?"

Fang Minghe glanced deeply at Ji Yanmei, who was being protected by them and was standing in the center of the group.

Luo Chen naturally understood the meaning behind Fang Minghe's words. He frowned and said in a deep voice:

"You guys go first, I can't leave Yanmei here alone."

After Luo Chen finished speaking, he looked at Ji Yanmei with concern.

They saw that Ji Yanmei, who was being protected by them, was seriously injured, and bright red blood was seeping from her fair skin, which was quite frightening.

Her face was extremely pale, without a trace of color.

Ji Yanmei looked at Luo Chen with some self-reproach, and then said with difficulty, "Brother Chen, just leave me here. These insectoids are after me. If you just leave me here, they won't chase you anymore."

"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in this predicament."

"Brother Chen, you guys need to leave quickly, or none of you will be able to leave today!" Ji Yanmei pleaded.

For some reason, these Zerg were staring intently at her.

No matter where Ji Yanmei escapes, these insectoids will find her with pinpoint accuracy.

Moreover, every time the Zerg find her, the number of Zerg chasing Ji Yanmei will increase.

This cycle repeated itself until all the Ji family members that Ji Yanmei brought into Tianyuan perished in the mouths of the insectoid race.

If she hadn't encountered Luo Chen and the others, she probably would have lost her life long ago.

The fact that Luo Chen and his group have protected her until now is already an act of utmost kindness and righteousness.

She couldn't be so selfish as to let Luo Chen and the others die with her!

Upon hearing Ji Yanmei's almost pleading words, Luo Chen clenched his fists tightly and then pursed his lips.

"You are my fiancée, how could I abandon you and leave you alone?!"

Afterwards, Luo Chen gave serious instructions to Zhong Kui and the other four.

"Junior sister, you take the other junior brothers and Yanmei and leave first. I can hold out here for a while longer! You all go quickly!"

"Senior brother!" "Captain!" "Big brother!" "Brother Chen!"

Luo Chen shouted, "Among us, I am the strongest. You will only be a hindrance if you stay here! While I can still hold them off for a while, you should leave now! Otherwise, none of us will be able to leave today!"

Zhong Kui gritted her teeth and had no choice but to obey Luo Chen's orders.

Luo Chen is right.

His cultivation level was the highest among them, and he also had the most spiritual energy stored.

Now, the remaining members of the group have almost no spiritual power left, and only Luo Chen can hold on.

Then, she helped Ji Yanmei, who was pale-faced, to her feet.

"Miss Yanmei, let's follow the captain's orders and leave first!"

With Zhong Kui's help, Ji Yanmei gradually stood up.

She then shook her head firmly.

"You can leave. These Zerg can pinpoint my location accurately. If you try to lead me, you'll only be worn down by these beasts."

After Ji Yanmei finished speaking, she slowly walked to Luo Chen's side.

"Brother Chen..."

"You really don't have to go to this lengths for me..."

Luo Chen slightly curled the corners of his lips, "My wife is worthy!"

"Junior Sister, Xiao Qi, Ming He, you should go!"

"Brother! I want to be with you and sister-in-law!"

Luo Xiaoqi gripped the Spirit Spear tightly, her eyes red as she watched Luo Chen and Ji Yanmei's retreating figures.

Bang!

Luo Xiaoqi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder, and he instantly lost consciousness and fainted.

Luo Chen handed the unconscious Luo Xiaoqi to Fang Minghe.

"Minghe, Xiaoqi is in your hands now. Xiaoqi is impatient. He won't leave unless we knock him unconscious."

"You all get out of here! I'll hold them off!"

Fang Minghe took Xiao Qi from her, nodded, and sighed.

Soon, Zhong Kui and the others quickly left the place.

Only Luo Chen and Ji Yanmei remained at this spot.

Luo Chen swung an axe in one hand and held Ji Yanmei's hand in the other.

"Yanmei, are you scared?"

Ji Yanmei shook her head, "I'm not afraid when I'm with Brother Chen!"

"Chi chi chi chi!"

"......"

The Zerg on the other side were aggressive, staring intently at Ji Yanmei beside Luo Chen, as if they had gone mad.

Despite seeing Zhong Kui and the others, they showed no intention of pursuing them.

They opened their gaping maws and slowly approached Luo Chen and Ji Yanmei.

******

"Yangyang! There seems to be some noise over there?!"

Su Yang and her group had just finished clearing out the remaining insectoids in the northern lands.

Not long after they left, Linglin suddenly pointed in a certain direction and said excitedly.

That direction was precisely where Luo Chen and Ji Yanmei were located.

Su Yang looked in the direction Ling Lin pointed, and then frowned slightly.

"strangeness......"

Upon hearing this, Xia Ning asked Su Yang:

"Junior sister, what's wrong? Is there something strange about that place?!"

Su Yang said in a deep voice, "The number of insectoids in that place is extremely large, almost comparable to the number of insectoids in that abyss!"

Xia Ning: "What?! It's almost catching up to the number of Zerg in that abyss before?!"

"Could it be... that another Zerg with reproductive capabilities is breeding more Zerg?!"

Su Yang's eyes flickered slightly; she became somewhat uncertain.

She already knew that the insectoid creature inside Ji Ruyan's body was an insect, one of the seven born from the insect mother's reproductive organs sealed in the Northern Region.

These seven insects also bear the responsibility of breeding the insect race.

Moreover, these seven insects will engage in a brutal competition, like raising poisonous insects, where they kill and devour each other, until one of them is born with the potential to evolve into the second insect queen.

Now, Ji Ruyan has completely perished, just like the worm inside her.

Perhaps even an insect will come from that spot...

Xia Ning and Su Yang exchanged a glance, and then instantly flew in that direction.

Upon seeing this, Ling Lin's body trembled.

"Yangyang, Sister Xia, wait for me!"

Immediately afterwards, two elven wings radiating holy brilliance unfurled behind him, and he swiftly followed Su Yang and Xia Ning away.

******

At the same time, neither Luo Chen nor Ji Yanmei are in a good situation.

The surrounding Zerg cannot be completely wiped out.

Just as Ji Yanmei was struggling to pierce the head of a flying centipede with her magic sword,

Suddenly, a sharp insect leg appeared behind her.

"Yanmei! Watch out!"

puff!

Drops of blood fell onto Ji Yanmei's delicate, fair face.

Ji Yanmei's expression froze, and she stared fixedly at Luo Chen behind her.

"Yan...Mei..."

Her eyes glazed over for a moment, then her gaze quickly shifted down to Luo Chen's abdomen.

"Brother Chen! Your abdomen!"

Luo Chen's abdomen was pierced directly by a sharp insect leg.

Luo Chen smiled deeply.

Then, his muscles bulged and veins popped out, and he swung the axe in his hand backward with force.

Click!

The black beetle behind him was suddenly cleaved in two.

"puff!"

After dealing with the black beetle behind him, Luo Chen could no longer hold on.

Even as he was losing consciousness, he was still subconsciously pushing Ji Yanmei.

"Yanmei, let's go quickly..."

After saying this, Luo Chen completely lost consciousness.

"Brother Chen! I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving!"

Tears streamed down Ji Yanmei's face like a collapsing dam.

She cupped Luo Chen's cheeks in her hands and leaned close to him.

"We promised to share the same bed in life and the same grave in death. How can I leave you to live alone?!"

After Ji Yanmei finished speaking, she swept her resentful and venomous eyes around.

"And if it weren't for you, Brother Chen, how could I have escaped the pursuit of these Zerg?"

"Brother Chen, please wake up..."

At this moment, countless insectoids were slowly approaching Ji Yanmei.

Ji Yanmei's lips moved.

"Since that's the case, you'll all be buried with me and Brother Chen!"

After Ji Yanmei finished speaking, an array plate immediately appeared in her palm.

Her eyes revealed a crazed, murderous glint.

But just as she was about to activate the array,

Suddenly, Ji Yanmei smelled a refreshing fragrance of plum blossoms.

The next moment, snow and ice filled the sky.

The surrounding temperature was dropping at a visible rate.

Countless frost swords, carrying a chilling aura, descended from the sky, pointing directly at the insectoids surrounding Ji Yanmei!

"Chi chi chi chi!"

"Fizz!"

"..."

A series of screams reached Ji Yanmei's ears.

Ji Yanmei held Luo Chen's body, staring blankly at the dwindling number of insectoids around her, the black array plate in her hand falling to the ground.

Then, a boy with a pair of wings emitting white light landed beside Ji Yanmei.

His eyes instantly turned pure white, and a pillar of pure energy burst forth from his chest.

Any Zerg that came into contact with this energy pillar was instantly reduced to ashes.

Ling Lin dealt with the Zerg in his direction before turning to look at Ji Yanmei, who was holding Luo Chen.

"Sister, your face is all smeared with tears, it doesn't look good!"

"We'll handle the Zerg here, no problem!"

Ji Yanmei glanced gratefully at Ling Lin, then looked with concern at Luo Chen, who was unconscious in her arms.

"Brother Chen, we're saved! Please wake up..."

Ling Lin looked at the unconscious Luo Chen and scratched his head.

"Sister, don't worry. This brother is still breathing. Yangyang understands the laws of life, and she will definitely be able to save him."

Upon hearing Ling Lin's words, Ji Yanmei exclaimed, "Yangyang? Who is that...?"

Ling Lin smiled. "It's right behind you!"

However, before Ji Yanmei could turn her head to look, a teasing yet familiar voice entered her ears.

"This array plate... is rather strange..."

Ji Yanmei turned around and saw Su Yang's figure come into view.

"Su...Su Yang?!"

Su Yang nodded slightly and glanced at Luo Chen in Ji Yanmei's arms.

"Luo Chen's dantian in his abdomen has been completely destroyed. Even if he is saved, he will never be able to cultivate again."

Ji Yanmei wiped away her tears and said with a resolute look in her eyes:

"Su Yang, please save him for the sake of him being the captain of the Seventh Squad and your former senior brother. I'm willing to give you any reward, as long as the Ji family of Wuji City can afford it!"

Su Yang: "Even if you don't offer any reward, I will still save Luo Chen."

"But since you've put it that way, if you hand over this array plate to me, I'll bring Luo Chen back unharmed, how about it?"

Ji Yanmei glanced at the array plate in Su Yang's hand and nodded without hesitation.

Su Yang smiled with satisfaction when he saw that Ji Yanmei had agreed.

The Law of Life emanated from Su Yang's hands, and a vibrant green aura filled with life instantly flowed into Luo Chen's damaged dantian.

Meanwhile, Su Yang is treating Luo Chen.

Ling Lin couldn't just stand by and watch, so he also went to help Xia Ning clear out the surrounding insectoids.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ji Yanmei only saw Luo Chen's eyelashes tremble slightly above his tightly closed eyes.

The next instant, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"Yan...Mei..."

A smile finally appeared on Ji Yanmei's worried face.

She leaned against Luo Chen's chest and finally couldn't hold back her sobs.

"Brother Chen, you're finally awake! You know, I almost thought you were going to..."

Luo Chen's heart softened, and he couldn't help but pat Ji Yanmei's head.

"Fool, I'm... awake now..."

"It was... Su Yang who saved you!"

Luo Chen: "Su Yang..."

At this moment, Su Yang's voice reached their ears.

"Sister-in-law, where did you get this array plate?"

Luo Chen and Ji Yanmei turned their heads at the same time.

Ji Yanmei looked at the array plate in Su Yang's hand, "This array plate... was obtained by a rogue cultivator by chance in a secret realm."

"After testing by the Flying Immortal Pavilion, it was found that once this array is activated, it possesses immense destructive power and can devour everything."

"I know the function of this array plate, so I brought it into Tianyuan to see if it can play a role at a critical moment."

"Oh right, there are three array plates in total. I have two more in my storage ring, so I'll give them to you too."

After Ji Yanmei finished speaking, she immediately took out two array plates of different colors from her storage ring.

Without exception, all three array plates exuded an eerie and destructive aura.

Su Yang immediately accepted the two array plates handed to her by Ji Yanmei.

"Then I must thank you very much, sister-in-law."

Luo Chen then cupped his hands in thanks to Su Yang, saying:

"Thank you so much, Senior Sister Su Yang..."

Su Yang smiled and waved her hand.

“Junior Brother Luo Chen, there’s no need to be so polite. After all, I’m still a member of the Seventh Squad of the Battle Hall, and you are my teammate.”

"Moreover, my sister-in-law's arrangement was indeed an unexpected surprise."
