Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 98: Even a War God Can't Escape the Trap of Beauty!

The night was heavy, and the moon had disappeared into the thick, dark clouds.

A triangular fighter jet transformed into a gray streak of light, rapidly approaching Hongning Fortress.

Inside the cockpit, Beast was dozing off against a bulkhead.

Meanwhile, Iceberg was browsing the martial artist forum when his pupils suddenly contracted slightly. He clicked on a post:

[War God Ranking Update: The World's Number One War God is Newly Crowned – Lin Ye.]

"Lin Ye, he's become the world's number one War God!"

When Iceberg spoke the title of this post, Beast abruptly opened his eyes, his face filled with shock.

Upon hearing this information, Alluring was also stunned into silence.

"Lin Ye becoming the world's number one War God is well-deserved. I have to say… his strength and progress are too fast, he's simply a monster!"

Hong's voice was very calm.

But every word was like a bolt from the blue for the three personal guards.

"This world's number one War God title, he obtained it without relying on mental power. If he were to unleash his mental power… even if the War Gods ranked second to ninth joined forces, they would only be slaughtered."

"His level has already surpassed the high-level War God realm by a large margin!"

The three personal guards: "…"

As the world's number one powerhouse, Hong's combat power was already at the pinnacle of the world.

And his vision and understanding of martial arts were unmatched on Earth.

Today, he was actually giving such a high evaluation to a young man.

"N-No way!?" Beast exclaimed.

"Actually, you should have felt it. When Lin Ye clashed with you, he held back more than ten percent of his strength!"

Hong turned around, recalling Lin Ye's expression at that time.

"But wasn't he being suppressed and beaten by the instructor? You were only using the strength of a high-level War God," Iceberg said.

"I said it was the strength of a high-level War God, but… my physical fitness is at the second level of the Planetary Realm.

In other words, I used a portion of Planetary Realm strength and speed, coupled with my extremely high mastery of marksmanship, to only manage to fight him to a draw…"

Hong sighed. He had never seen such a monstrous genius.

He was actually able to break through and improve during battle. It was truly too rare.

If he turned around at this moment, the three personal guards would see a hint of fear flashing across the face of this world's number one powerhouse:

"If he breaks through to the Planetary Realm, I'm afraid that without using the Light Domain, I would be easily defeated by him head-on!"

The number of people who could make Hong say the words "easily defeated head-on" was limited.

On the entire Earth, besides Thor having a slight possibility, there was no one else.

But now, there was Lin Ye, such a freak.

"…" The three of Beast were stunned.

They recalled Lin Ye's composure and calmness when facing their instructor, his growing strength in battle, and felt increasingly terrified.

The blood-colored fighter jet was very fast.

Unconsciously, it had already left the territory of Great Xia.

Hong leaned against the window, staring motionlessly at the deep blue sea ahead, his expression calm.

Only the faint gleam in his eyes revealed that his mood was not as calm as it seemed.

The other three looked at the gray expanse outside, their minds filled with scenes of Lin Ye's battle.

His saber light was like lightning, his movements ghostly, and with the addition of his unpredictable and terrifying flying knives, he could easily kill any high-level War God.

"Hiss~ What a terrifying monstrous genius!" Beast couldn't help but gasp.

He glanced at his right hand and arm, which had recovered as before, and secretly rejoiced that Lin Ye was a reasonable person.

Otherwise, he would most likely be lying down now.

"This is also an important reason why I agreed to Jia Yi's request for the entire mercenary group to participate in the Modu counterattack.

Cooperating with Lin Ye… we will reduce a lot of losses in exploring ancient civilization ruins!"

"And the treasures inside the ancient civilization ruins… are enough to allow any force to undergo a qualitative transformation."

Speaking of this, Hong did not sigh but instead showed a hint of gratification on his face: "Great Xia having a monstrous martial artist like Lin Ye is actually a blessing for the whole world."

"Only when there are more and more monstrous martial artists like this will humans have a greater chance of resisting the terrifying beast tide.

Thor and I can't take care of the whole world… having another Lin Ye as a companion is a blessing for humanity!"

"So today's matter, you and even the entire Limit Mercenary Group must not hold a grudge but instead take it as a goal."

"Yes, we will remember!"

…

In the wilderness outside the South Bank Fortress.

Cheers erupted.

At this moment, Lin Ye was surrounded by people like a moon surrounded by stars, having reached the peak of his life.

However, he didn't take it to heart.

Parting the crowded people, Lin Ye walked towards where Xu Qi was.

"I told you I'd be fine!" Lin Ye looked at Xu Qi with a smile, his tone gentle.

"Yeah… do you know how scared I was when Hong made his move just now?" Xu Qi's eyes were slightly red, and then she threw herself into Lin Ye's arms.

"Actually, I sensed it long ago." Lin Ye reached out and gently embraced Xu Qi.

"Tsk tsk tsk…" Huang Shaoying watched this scene.

Similarly, this scene was also seen by Jia Yi and Ma Qingfeng.

The two exchanged glances.

A hint of gratification appeared in their eyes.

Immediately, the two high-level War Gods looked towards where Xu Yong was.

They saw the latter shaking his head slightly, with a helpless expression on his face, 'a daughter grown up won't stay at home'.

Lin Ye quietly looked at the beautiful woman in the black dress in front of him.

Feeling her beautiful and serene temperament, fully enjoying her beautiful face, and breathing in a refreshing fragrance.

His mind couldn't help but recall the scene of her facing the world's number one powerhouse and the three high-level War Gods.

How brave Xu Qi was at that time.

She was only thinking about his safety, without caring about herself at all.

This alone had completely made up Lin Ye's mind.

Adding to that, the forceful kiss he gave her on the fighter jet, Lin Ye's mouth curled into a smile.

Then.

He fumbled in the pocket of his combat uniform, and then took out a thumb-sized wolf tooth.

Lin Ye reached out and took Xu Qi's right hand, smiled at her slightly, and said familiarly:

"Qiqi, this is the most precious wolf tooth of the high-level Lord Silver Moon Wolf King, I'm giving it to you now!"

"…Cough cough… You can just call me Xu Qi, or Xiao Qi is fine, don't call me Qiqi."

Holding the wolf tooth that still had body temperature, Xu Qi tried to pull back her right hand that was being held by Lin Ye.

Unsuccessful.

Her fair cheeks couldn't help but blush slightly, she coughed softly, and said somewhat helplessly: "I really like this wolf tooth, thank you."

"Can you let go of my hand first?" Xu Qi tilted her head slightly, suddenly winked at Lin Ye, and said softly: "There are so many people here, I feel a little uncomfortable…"

"Don't be afraid, it's better when there are more people!" Lin Ye glanced at her and said in an unprecedentedly gentle voice: "Today… I have a big announcement to make here."

As soon as everyone heard Lin Ye's words, they immediately perked up their ears.

Swish!!

Under the watchful eyes of the public, Lin Ye straightened his chest and said loudly: "I, Lin Ye, like Xu Qi!!"

"Qiqi, would you like to be my girlfriend?" Lin Ye looked at Xu Qi affectionately, his black crystal eyes filled with 'I like you'.

Which girl doesn't like strong people, especially men like Lin Ye who have both looks and strength.

She, Xu Qi, was no exception!

"I… I'm willing!!" Without looking at Lin Ye's aggressive gaze, Xu Qi answered softly.

After speaking, she was extremely shy and buried her face deeply into Lin Ye's arms.

"Kiss one, kiss one!!"

Beside them, Huang Shaoying shouted loudly at the right time.

At first, it was just Huang Shaoying's voice.

Gradually, it turned into cheers from hundreds of people——

"Kiss one! Kiss one!"

"Kiss one…"

In the cheers, Lin Ye aimed at Xu Qi's full and bright red lips, like summer cherries, and lowered his head…

Not far away.

Jia Yi and Ma Qingfeng stood side by side, quietly watching this loving scene.

Everyone's mouths were unconsciously upturned.

At this moment, they couldn't help but recall themselves back then, full of vigor, and their mouths unconsciously upturned.

Back then, they were also like Lin Ye, full of courage for the person they liked.

"Alas, a hero still can't escape the trap of beauty, even a War God can't avoid it!"

"How come a burly man like me doesn't have a woman actively throwing herself at me."

Long Wang, the deputy head of the Dark Night mercenary group, who was standing alone on the side, couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart as he watched the scene of the two kissing.
