Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

When that massive dark war spear over ten meters long appeared, everyone’s expressions abruptly changed!

This battle had lasted nearly half a day, but from start to finish, Zhang Yi had consistently used methods to evade Li Changgong’s attacks or to delay him.

This was the first time he unleashed a killing move of such terrifying power!

”It’s fine, any attack will be cleaved by big brother’s ability. No matter how powerful the ability, it can’t kill big brother!”

Jiang Han clenched her fists and said.

But she didn’t notice the profound smile curling at the corner of Zhang Yi’s mouth.

The Spear of Annihilation arrived before Li Changgong in an instant.

His eyes were bloodshot as he fiercely swung his twin blades. [All Within My Thought—Be Cleaved], nothing is unbreakable.

The massive black war spear was directly split in half down the middle.

But this time, it didn’t fly off elsewhere. Instead, as it passed by Li Changgong’s sides, it erupted with a thunderous explosion!

A colossal black sphere abruptly appeared in mid-air, forming into a ball with a radius of ten kilometers in the blink of an eye!

”Single-target attacks are ineffective against you, but you have no way to deal with large-scale AOE attacks, right?”

Zhang Yi said thus.

He had merely used a small trick to deceive Li Changgong.

That was to simultaneously release two Spears of Annihilation, then pretend there was only one.

And then separate them just as they approached Li Changgong.

This created the illusion for Li Changgong that he had cleaved Zhang Yi’s Spear of Annihilation with a single slash.

”Big brother!!”

Jiang Han shouted agitatedly. Qin Qigong pressed down on her shoulder, smiling at her as he said, ”Don’t worry, Gouchen will be fine.”

No one noticed when, but Shang Daowen had vanished from his spot.

Zhang Yi’s eyes were fixed on the struck Li Changgong as he whispered softly, ”With this attack’s coverage area, given your ability, you simply don’t have time to escape.”

”Li Changgong, you didn’t really die, did you?”

Li Changgong, of course, was not dead.

This was Shengjing. With multiple Epsilon-level beings watching this battle, they would not allow the Huaxu Kingdom to lose a top-tier combatant.

Moreover, the fight between Zhang Yi and Li Changgong wasn’t the extremely perilous type, but rather a protracted war of attrition spanning an extremely long time.

This kind of battle allowed for risk to be minimized to the greatest extent.

Within the void, the darkness dissipated.

Li Changgong’s body hovered in mid-air. His combat suit was shattered, and even his helmet had exploded.

He lay suspended in the air, a thick layer of blue light enveloping his body. Although he hadn’t been killed by Zhang Yi, his eyes had lost their focus.

A flicker of something strange passed through Zhang Yi’s eyes.

No wonder Qin Qigong had said he would have someone protect the two of them at critical moments to avoid fatalities.

So there was such a move.

In the distance, Shang Daowen transformed into a streaking meteor as he flew over. He flew to a spot between Zhang Yi and Li Changgong, letting out a long, heavy breath.

”Mr. Chaos, we agreed not to go for the kill. You struck far too heavily! If I had acted just a little slower, Gouchen might really have been finished off by you!”

It was he who had just acted to preserve Li Changgong’s life.

Zhang Yi glanced at Shang Daowen.

This existence whose myth codename was [Ksitigarbha King] appeared to be a holder of psychic abilities.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to, in such a short time, rapidly form a protective shield with powerful psychic force across the distance to save Li Changgong’s life.

Far away in Shengjing’s Earth God Temple, Guan Longyue put away the wooden carving in her hand. Zhang Yi’s attack seemed fierce, but he hadn’t truly intended to kill Li Changgong, so there was no need for her to intervene.

This was just as well, because if she had acted, her target would have been Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi looked at the already broken Li Changgong, yet he still continued to ask, ”Is this battle over now? Li Changgong, do you admit defeat?”

Shang Daowen’s eyebrows twitched amusingly, his expression somewhat helpless as he glanced back at Li Changgong.

Was there even a question?

He had already intervened. If not for him, Li Changgong might have lost his life from that last attack!

But Zhang Yi deliberately said this to completely shatter Li Changgong’s confidence.

A wave-like ripple flashed fiercely in Li Changgong’s eyes, and then he slowly closed them.

Zhang Yi laughed loudly and proclaimed in a high voice, ”Is the King of the Northwest playing dead? The esteemed descendant of a military family, the supreme commander of the Northwest Region, starts playing dead when he can’t win!”

He strained his voice, shouting through the amplifier, ”My heavens! Are you hoping everyone has a terrible memory and tight lips, that they won’t go around talking about this everywhere?”

”Surely not, surely not?”

The combat suit’s smart equipment had a very effective amplification system, designed for issuing commands during battle.

So when Zhang Yi strained his voice and shouted, the sound spread from the sky towards the surroundings, and the people in the distance heard it loud and clear.

Li Changgong’s eyes snapped open. ”Don’t... don’t say anymore!”

Zhang Yi looked down at him from above, his posture and demeanor exactly like how Li Changgong had faced Zhang Yi at the very beginning.

”Do you admit you were wrong?”

He elegantly twirled the gun in his hand. ”Or do you want to keep fighting?”

Li Changgong’s face was extremely unpleasant. Shang Daowen also watched him with an amused expression, as if saying: Li Changgong, have some shame! If you still won’t admit defeat, I won’t intervene again.

”I...”

Li Changgong’s throat was hoarse, like a rusty tin can.

He paused on that single word for nearly a full minute, before finally, with immense humiliation and a flushed face, he said,

”I lost.”

Once those words were spoken, it was as if something within Li Changgong’s body was sucked out by a syringe.

The color rapidly drained from his face, and his back was no longer as straight and proud as it once was.

Qin Qigong, Han Shanzuo, Jiang Han, and Pagyi Gesang all clearly saw on this man an unmistakable, unconcealable desolation.

Zhang Yi didn’t say anything more.

This blow had already allowed him to thoroughly reclaim his face.

Being defeated by someone he looked down upon had completely shattered Li Changgong’s dignity.

Zhang Yi took half a step back, vanished from the spot, and then flew towards Shengjing City.

Shang Daowen looked at Li Changgong, smiling as he comforted him, ”Lord Gouchen, a single victory or defeat doesn’t prove anything. I hope you can rally your spirits, learn from this shame, and find courage thereafter.”

Li Changgong closed his eyes. ”Leave me alone here. I need some quiet.”

Shang Daowen raised an eyebrow. ”Very well, I’ll head back first.”

Shang Daowen left. The psychic force around Li Changgong disappeared, and he began to free-fall from the sky towards the earth.

Not long after, his body landed in the muddy slush filled with icy water.

He also possessed spatial power, so he wouldn’t die from the fall.

But he still let himself hit the ground with a bit of impact.

The physical pain could somewhat alleviate the pain in his heart.

He submerged himself completely in the muddy water. Beneath him was the massive crater Zhang Yi had created, long since filled with muddy water.

Li Changgong sank to the very depths of the mire.

He no longer had the face to see anyone.

Zhang Yi arrived before Qin Qigong and the others. His gaze imperceptibly swept over Jiang Han. Jiang Han’s eyes were very complex, but she said nothing.

In a world where strength reigns supreme, Zhang Yi had even defeated Li Changgong. From now on, no one would have the right to say a single word of criticism to his face.
