Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Long Ying held her sword in one hand, turned around and looked at him indifferently, without responding.

Scorpion General's face turned deathly pale at a visible speed.

The wound on his abdomen, eroded by the dark red crystal, had penetrated deep into his flesh, internal organs, and even bones, completely crystallizing his cells and nerves!

He didn't feel much pain; instead, a chill that seeped into his bones was engulfing his entire body—a terrifying sensation of life being forcibly stripped away and solidified into inorganic matter.

That's the feeling of impending death...

He, a Zerg general at the first level of the Soul Emperor realm, was actually killed instantly by a teenage human empress with a single sword strike?!

"hateful......"

General Scorpion let out a low growl of resentment from his throat and suddenly sprang up from the ground!

The tail needle lashed out again!

At this moment, Mu Jiannan, An Lingyue, Li Shuying, and Bai Qing also made their move.

Li Shuying drew her Shadow Blade and severed the scorpion's tail with a single strike; Mu Jiannan deftly flicked his longsword, unleashing two streaks of light that easily cut off the Scorpion General's pincers; An Lingyue lightly made a hand seal, and a rope of light wrapped around the Scorpion General's neck like a lock; Bai Qing waved the Ghost God Flag, and the Ghost God Bai Jian suddenly appeared, unleashing several undead swords that all pierced the Scorpion General's chest and emerged from behind!

General Scorpion froze, the fierce light in his eyes quickly fading.

"boom......"

He collapsed heavily to the ground, lifeless.

The butterfly's pupils suddenly contracted.

"The other four are also Soul Emperor realm experts!?"

wrong......

Mu Jiannan and An Lingyue are indeed at the Soul Emperor realm.

The remaining two seem to have their power derived from some kind of special blessing.

A wisp of black aura swirled around Long Ying, Mu Jiannan, and Li Shuying, and their aura was in no way weaker than that of a Soul Emperor Realm expert!

'Magic!? ...But it feels different from ordinary magic.'

'What happened to these people? They've turned into a bunch of demons!'

The Dream Butterfly said coldly, "The Ye family is indeed a demonized family. I didn't expect Ye Ge to be so ruthless, turning all the women around him into demonized people."

Long Ying slowly raised her sword, its blade pointing at the Dream Butterfly: "Empress of the Zerg, do you intend to fight to the death with your army here?"

The Dream Butterfly sneered, "Are you scared?"

Long Ying said expressionlessly, "Look at my army. Do they look afraid?"

"..."

The Dream Butterfly's gaze swept across the battlefield below.

The Zerg army outnumbered the humans by more than ten thousand times, yet the battle was surprisingly evenly matched! The two sides were locked in a fierce struggle, with neither side gaining a clear advantage.

The main problem was that the humans were simply too reckless. The madness of the human soldiers far exceeded her comprehension; they were trading blows for blows, risking their lives, with some even carrying gene grenades and charging into the Zerg swarm to self-destruct! Such fearless, almost manic fighting tactics were unheard of!

There was even a group of soldiers who pulled out a bundle of gene grenades and rushed into the horde of insects to self-destruct!

Such a fearless and almost insane fighting style is unheard of! It's utterly depraved!

What alarmed her even more was the terrifying efficiency of the human race's genetically engineered weapons, specifically designed to exploit the weaknesses of the Zerg. Zerg soldiers fell in droves, their deaths so rapid that even the replenishment of the queen was slowed down.

'Gao Shenxue's gene weapon must have been upgraded again; its killing speed has actually increased...'

The Dream Butterfly Secret Passage.

She watched as her Zerg soldiers below died one after another, and she actually felt a pang of heartache.

As a Zerg player, she should logically be the least concerned about the deaths of her minions.

But these human warriors are just too outrageous.

Did these people come to the battlefield just to commit suicide?

What kind of war is this?!

'That's so strange...'

'Furthermore, the magic emanating from Long Ying and Mu Jiannan seems to faintly carry an aura similar to that of those from the Temple of the High Priests...'

'Could it be... the power of faith!?'

'Magic power can actually be transformed into the power of faith?'

A flicker of understanding crossed the depths of the Dream Butterfly's pupils.

She looked down at the human legion below.

'I see......'

No wonder they can be so reckless!

'My illusions have no effect on them. It's too irrational to keep wasting time fighting with a bunch of lunatics like them...'

'There's no need to waste my soldiers here for Sima Qing.'

As the Dream Butterfly was thinking this, its wings suddenly unfurled!

A dazzling array of seven colors burst forth like an explosion, instantly enveloping the entire grassland!

"!!!"

Long Ying and the other soldiers below were all stunned by the bright light and instinctively closed their eyes and raised their hands to block it.

The light lasted for several breaths before gradually dissipating.

Once visibility returned, the Dream Butterfly's figure had vanished without a trace, and the Zerg army, which had surged like a black tide, quickly disappeared into the depths of the grassland, vanishing without a trace.

Long Ying was slightly taken aback: "Gone..."
