Medical and Martial God

The convicts from the Chenyu Luoyan gang and the bounty hunters had fought their way to the port, leaving an unknown number of dead in their wake. They were just a few steps away from boarding the boat Ye Xiu was on.

Suddenly, they saw dozens of helicopters approaching, followed by a barrage of shells raining down.

”Oh my God!”

The convicts and bounty hunters were so terrified their scalps went numb.

They wanted to escape! But they were completely surrounded by a dense horde of zombies. In such a cramped environment, escaping—let alone hiding—was incredibly difficult.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Amidst the earth-shattering explosions, mangled remains flew in all directions—belonging to zombies, convicts, and bounty hunters alike.

”Who the hell is targeting my little brother?!” An Dongye, witnessing Ye Xiu and Ghost Shadow leap into the sea from her helicopter, was enraged. A shell had just obliterated the very spot on the deck where they had been standing moments before.

She cursed furiously into the intercom, ”Those two people on the deck just now were our own! One of them was your Second Brother! Are you trying to kill him and usurp his position? All of you, bombard the crowd on the island!”

She then sent new orders to the distant warships, ”See the crowd on the island? Open fire! Use up all the shells and kill them all!”

At that moment, An Dongye, peppering her speech with curses, had the perfect air of a bandit chief.

After issuing her commands, An Dongye picked up her sniper rifle and began picking off the convicts and bounty hunters. In truth, she couldn’t tell who was a convict and who was a bounty hunter. But the zombies were easy to recognize. Anyone who didn’t look like a zombie was fair game—shoot first, ask questions later!

To be honest, sniper rifles were almost useless against War Gods above the Second Realm, as a Second Realm War God of the Spirit Refining Stage had an incredibly strong sense of danger. However, the situation on Seven-Star Island was different. The convicts and bounty hunters were swarmed by the massive army of zombies. Even if they sensed the threat of death, there was nowhere to dodge.

This made An Dongye ecstatic. One shot, one kill!

The sniper bullets, however, seemed ineffective against War Gods at the Fourth Realm of the Body Refining Stage or higher. Their bodies were tough as iron, making their defensive power immense.

”Fly lower!”

Just then, Ye Xiu’s voice came from below An Dongye’s helicopter.

An Dongye looked down and grinned. She saw Ye Xiu and Ghost Shadow with their heads above the water, waving at her.

”Fly lower!” An Dongye immediately commanded.

The helicopter slowly descended. When it was ten meters from the surface, Ye Xiu lifted Ghost Shadow and leaped, landing cleanly on the aircraft.

”Little Brother, you’re having quite a blast, huh? Why didn’t you invite me to this fun zombie-slaying party?” An Dongye reprimanded him with the air of a boss.

Ye Xiu’s face instantly darkened. ”What’s going on with you? Where did you get military helicopters and warships? And what are you doing here?”

He had too many questions, like what had happened to her long hair, or why she was dressed like this.

”I’ve taken command of all the mercenaries, fugitives, assassins, and arms dealers on Biluo Island. I’m the undisputed underground emperor now,” An Dongye boasted cockily. ”As for the military helicopters and warships, if you want one, my arms dealers can get you a nuclear bomb. Of course, I borrowed the warship from the Black Water Nation’s naval base in Tamwood City. They didn’t want to lend it at first, so I beat the stuffing out of their so-called leader. Not only did they lend it, but they also threw in some extra shells.”

Ye Xiu was speechless. What had An Dongye been up to during her mysterious disappearance? Wasn’t she supposed to be starting a business?

But he couldn’t dwell on that now. He said, ”Notify all helicopters and warships not to approach within two hundred meters of the Seven-Star Island port. Otherwise, once they enter the Formation, they’ll be trapped until it’s broken.”

”No problem!” An Dongye immediately relayed the order.

At that moment, Ye Xiu suddenly realized that An Dongye truly did have the air of a bandit chief.

Next, Ye Xiu enjoyed the show as the artillery bombarded Seven-Star Island, but the bombardment stopped after only a short while.

”Why did they stop firing?” Ye Xiu asked.

An Dongye shrugged. ”We’re out of shells, but we still have plenty of bullets. In a bit, I’ll lead my little brothers to storm Seven-Star Island and wipe out those bastards who bullied you.”

Ye Xiu chuckled dryly. ”There are over ten million zombies on Seven-Star Island, and your barrage didn’t actually kill that many. Plus, there’s still a large number of convicts and high-level War Gods. If your men charge in, they’ll all die on Seven-Star Island.”

An Dongye realized he was right. ”Then what should we do?”

Instead of answering, Ye Xiu took out his phone and sent a text to You Ming. ”In my name, issue an order to the Black Water Nation’s troops in Tamwood City to bombard the southern port of Seven-Star Island with missiles. Oh, and don’t forget to give them the coordinates for the southern port. Make sure they don’t just bomb the island’s interior randomly; we have intelligence personnel on the island.”

You Ming: ”Understood!”

「About half an hour later.」

Long-range missiles flew in, passing through the Formation and landing all around the southern port of Seven-Star Island. For a time, the sky was lit up by explosions. You Ming had not only provided the coordinates of the southern port to the Black Water Nation’s Ministry of Military Affairs but had also marked the detailed locations where the zombie hordes were gathered.

Coupled with the fact that the zombies, convicts, and bounty hunters were packed so densely together, the missile bombardment was extremely effective.

But killing over ten million zombies with missiles alone was unrealistic. The main issue was the cost; the Black Water Nation’s Ministry of Military Affairs was reluctant to launch an indiscriminate, overwhelming assault, especially since Huang Quan wasn’t going to reimburse them.

Even so, Ye Xiu was very satisfied with the results.

「Meanwhile, the Martial Artist forum was in an uproar!」

”As expected of Earth’s number one madman! Huang Quan single-handedly went and flattened Seven-Star Island.”

”Over ten million zombies, plus an unknown number of convicts and bounty hunters... Even if all of us from Biluo Island, over five million Martial Artists strong, went all out, we couldn’t kill them all in ten or fifteen days.”

”Huang Quan is incredible! He just plowed the whole place with missiles!”

”Only Huang Quan could do this. Who else could mobilize the Black Water Nation’s Ministry of Military Affairs?”

Ye Xiu hadn’t kept the news about the ten million zombies and the bounty a secret, so everyone on the Martial Artist forum knew. And because they knew, they were utterly shocked. This was something none of them could have done; they wouldn’t even dare to dream of it.

”We’re the ones who did all the work! Why is Huang Quan getting all the credit?” An Dongye fumed, her cheeks puffed out as she read the posts on the Martial Artist forum.

This girl was so dense. If she’d just used a bit of logic, she would have figured out long ago that Ye Xiu was Huang Quan.

”Isn’t this better? We need to keep a low profile,” Ye Xiu said with a completely straight face, weaving a tall tale. ”Think about it. If the three Judicator Families and the Eternal Kingdom found out it was us who bombed Seven-Star Island, they’d definitely hold a grudge. Isn’t it better to let Huang Quan take the fall and draw their anger?”

An Dongye mulled over his words and decided her little brother had a very good point.

She patted him on the shoulder and said, ”Little Brother, you are a wise man!”

As if you needed to tell me that!

”Let’s go,” Ye Xiu said. ”The bombing is over. It’s time to break the Formation on Seven-Star Island.”

Ghost Shadow grew anxious. ”Once the Formation is broken, the surviving zombies, convicts, and bounty hunters will definitely charge toward Biluo Island.”

”It’s fine,” Ye Xiu said with a smile. ”Just think of it as live practice for the Martial Artists on Biluo Island.”
