Night Fall.

Ever since Feng Jin had taken his leave in the afternoon, he hasn't returned to the camp at all. Everyone was worried when the sun had completely descended and there was still no news about Feng Jing and the marshal. Feng Yang's Phoenix Brigade and King Zenith's Unit had also joined the Fallen God's Unit to the campsite of Feng Jing's group.

They surrounded the small campsite and stayed in the same place together with the other units. For some unknown reason, these three units got along well. Knowing that their leaders were all from the same family, they've protected each other's backs as closely as possible, preventing those hyenas from stealing their little cubs.

Ever since Feng Jing's identity as a guide was revealed, some have sharp eyes that noticed that Lin Yven and the rest suddenly possessed a quantum beast that only an awakened one has. Moreover, with that increase of strength, the sentinels of that group were seen as well. How could inexperienced students subdue senior soldiers from the Fallen Gods Unit when all of their potentials were mostly all A and S-ranked. Especially the overwhelming superiority of Qu Yeon and Xue Ran's physique caught the eyes of those sharp-eyed old foxes from the other units.

It was because of this that the children under Feng Jing were all protected by the three units while he was away.

At the camp. The leaders of each unit had all gathered at the main tent build-up by their subordinates. Feng Wu and the other students of the Feng Team were gathered at the main tent as well but unlike their usual noisy bunch mode, they all sat inside like good students in front of the high-ranking personnel before them. 

They are used to Xue Ying spending time with them but the two new yet familiar faces were something they've never expected to meet on this day. One is the renowned crowned king, Regulus Zenith and the other is the eldest brother of their leader, General Feng Yang.

On their faces imprinted seriousness as someone from the military. Stern and expressionless. Only Xue Ying was smiling friendly at them. 

Han Ling whispered to Qu Yul, "Y-Yul, that person looks like a leader."

"Shush! That's Lord Jing's elder brother General Yang. Lower that finger. You're being rude." whispered back Qu Yul.

The twins who overheard their conversation also whispered to them. 

Tang San said, "D-Did you see the beautiful lady from before? She looks so much like the leader. Are they related as well?"

His twin brother, Tang Yi covered his loudmouth young twin brother and said with an undertone voice. 

"Idiot! Do you want to die?! That of Her Highness the Crowned Queen, Queen Feng Yue. Her Highness is the leader's elder sister." said Tang Yi.

Meanwhile, the Shi brothers were praying in their heads murmuring, "I'm the air. I'm not here. I am everywhere." They were close to breakdown as commoners. This is the first time meeting people of the nobility of this high standing.

Even though Feng Jing is also from the upper echelons of the Noble clans, his usual languid self made it hard to believe he is gone but the adult soldiers in front of them are different. Just their presence is enough to show the difference in standing. Every gesture they make shows grace and elegance as if anyone can see a luxurious mansion or palace just behind them.

Among the group, the ones who are calm are Feng Wu, Xue Ran, Qu Yeon, and Lin Yven. One is the aide of Feng Jing, a young master from the Xue Clan, someone who is calm no matter what circumstances, and the last one is the youngest young master of Lin Clan. Tang Si also showed patience and calmness on the surface but whenever his eyes landed on Regulus Zenith, Feng Yang, or Xue Ying his eyes would glow and an expression of shock would appear on his face.

Tang Si's thoughts, 'A black phoenix, a white lion and Snow Leopard. But what's with that white lion, it has a glowing red orange aura which forms like wings?!'

Qu Yeon noticed his other half's fidgety movements. He would also somewhat tremble from time to time.

"Si'er, are you okay?" asked Qu Yeon worriedly as he held Tang Si's hands.

Tang Si immediately averted his eyes from the three adults in front of them and said, "I... I'm okay."

It was at this moment that Bai Yuyan had just returned after sending Feng Yue to Feng Jing's tent.

Bai Yuyan said, "Sister Yue had gone to sleep. But she is still worried about Xiao Jing and the marshal."

Regulus Zenith and Feng Yang smiled at Bai Yuyan. 

The crowned king, Regulus Zenith said with a smile, "Thank you for accompanying my wife, Xiao Yu." 

"Please don't thank me, Brother Zen. I'm okay with spending time with Sister Yue," said Bai Yuyan who was suddenly pulled into a hug by the grinning man with crimson hair who suddenly appeared beside him. 

Feng Yang happily hug Bai Yuyan and said, "Xiao Yu, I miss you so so so much~" 

"L-Let go! I can still sue you for harassment! We aren't married yet!" said Bai Yuyan while pushing Feng Yang's face who wants to land a kiss on his face. 

Feng Yang retorted, "We can be considered engaged. You've already met my family ba~" 

"S-S-Shameless..." said Bai Yuyan with a crimson blush on his face as he pulled his fiancé's hair in retaliation. 

Feng Yang said, "Ow. Ow. Honey, I'll get bald!" 

"Then get bald! You're still handsome even if you look like an egg!" said Bai Yuyan. 

"Baby~ you love me a lot~," said Feng Yang.

Bai Yuyan rebukes, "I'm being sarcastic!"

Everyone could stop laughing seeing the exchange between Feng Yang and his fiance, Bai Yuyan. Xue Ying didn't hold back his laughter as everyone in the tent is family.

Bai Yuyan asked, "By the way, why are you here, A'Yang? Don't tell me you are worried about Xiao Jing? But among us, he is the strongest. Only the marshal can spar with him at full power."

"I'm not worried. I just want to see Brother Sirius get beaten up. It was his fault that this situation happened anyway." said Feng Yang honestly.

Xue Ying spoke, "I didn't even know he didn't inform Xiao Jing. The Marshal said to move right away as soon as we landed."

"Jingjing is a guide. The special skill of those pureblood zergs isn't useful towards him," said Regulus Zenith. "I'm more worried that they might get surrounded by both the zergs and the enemies."

Xue Ying said, "I've already sent some drones to look for their traces. Xiao Vega's gadgets are really amazing. It can even turn invisible if needed."

Feng Yang said, "You should share some with us too. Though the genius boy is joining Fallen Gods, you must not forget the family!"

"Yes. Yes. We won't keep it for ourselves okay. Moreover, Xiao Jing always sends away his works with you two before we could even learn about it. You didn't even tell me about the Absolute Defense program he made before!" complained Xue Ying.

Regulus Zenith and Feng Yang rolled their eyes on him and said.

"At that time Sirius hadn't met Jingjing yet? He is a stranger."

"Don't send your complaints to me. It was the old men in the family who said not to give you one."

Said Regulus Zenith and Feng Yang respectively. 

Feng Yang said, "Anyway, is your state okay? Have you controlled your mania? This is why Xiao Yeye says to look for a spouse. You single dog!"

"Fuck! You were a single dog yourself a month ago!" retorted Xue Ying.

Hugging Bai Yuyan while grinning, "Now I'm not. Even Brother Sirius is engaged to our Xiao Jing. Brother Zenith is about to become a father. You on the other hand, hmph! In our generation you are the only single dog left!" said Feng Yang.

A fuming Xue Ying jumped on Feng Yang, to avoid his lover getting involved he had to dodge Xue Ying.

"That's it! I'm fighting it with you!" said Xue Ying. Obviously, these two never gets along well.

Feng Yang snorted at him which pissed off Xue Yinh more. They had to wrestle in the corner of the tent-like children. As the side, Zenith and Bai Yuyan were betting who would win. 

"Snort! Who is afraid of you!?"

Regulus Zenith said, "I vote for A'Ying."

"Okay. I will vote for A'Yang. A'Wu and everyone, who do you think will win?" asked Bai Yuyan.

Feng Wu joined smoothly as if he is used to it, "I vote for Lord Yang."

"Me on Lieutenant General Xue," Xue Ran said.

Following this, everyone made their vote as well but only Solaris Vega and Lin Yven are left. 

Lin Yven asked with a smile, "Xiao Vega, who do you think will win?"

"Hmmm~ can I vote for a draw?" answered Solaris Vega. Lin Yven nodded his head and said, "We vote for a draw!"

Everyone from Feng Jing's team who knew how lucky Solaris Vega is wanted to change their vote but Bai Yuyan had already closed the betting pool. They followed the two childish big brothers who were fighting like children until they got out of the tent.

Bai Yuyan happily commented, "Oh~ I might win this time." 

Xue Ying is about to lose and Feng Yang is about to win when suddenly the nearest tent the two had stopped to fight on suddenly opened. Revealing a dark-faced Feng Yue whose face is covered in charcoal face mask glaring at the two idiots in front of Feng Jing's tent.

"Fighting again! Let this lady sleep! HMPH!" said Feng Yue. 

Feng Yang and Xue Ying were startled to see Feng Yue's ugly expression. "Sis!?" 

POW!!! 

Both Feng Yang and Xue Ying were hit on the top of their heads and both fainted.

Feng Yue snorted and said, "Snort* Be quiet!" Then she went back inside the tent leaving silence to descend behind her. Even the soldiers on guard duty didn't dare to utter a peep. 

Only Regulus Zenith reacted calmly and said, "Un, I lost." He passed his losing bet money to Bai Yuyan before stepping over the two fainted fools on the ground. "It's already midnight. Rest until morning. We would make our move at dawn." said Zenith before going inside his wife's tent to calm his wife down. 

Si Shen said, "Wow~ Xiao Vega's luck is truly on the spot." 

"I really thought General Yang would win," said Wu Liu. 

Lin Yven with a smile on his face said, "Only the result matters~ Pay up~" 

While things at the campsite are as relaxing as ever, on Feng Jing's side is the complete opposite. He had flown directly towards the Central Region and found the said hidden Mansion.

His armors were covered in green blood as he massacred every zerg in the mansion. The pureblood zergs that have royal class strength was minced to pieces by Feng Jing. Under his foot, the regenerating parts of the royal class zerg move on their own trying to piece up themselves to perfection once again. 

Feng Jing watched coldly as the human form head of the first prince centipede zerg regenerated. But his other parts were burned to ashes and could no longer regenerate. 

"I will ask you for the last time. Where is Altair Sirius?" asked Feng Jing. There is no expression imprinted on his face at this moment. His whole demeanor is icy and aloof.

"KRIEK!! HE... IS DEAD!" The first prince of the zerg race declared.

Feng Jing muttered, "You will not have an easy death."

The remaining low and middle-class zergs watch as the green blood that their prince possesses suddenly moves on its own as if it lives following Feng Jing's command.

"Did you not know? As long as you are a living thing no matter what kind of creature you are, this lord holds your life. Now you won't have to die but after I'm done with you you'll beg me to end your life~" murmured Feng Jing.

His voice is mischievous yet cold. Enthralling yet eerie, the First Prince of the Zerg Race finally experiences what it's like to be dead yet to be alive at the same time. His own blood moves like it possesses a life of its own.

Turning to sharp blades slowly cutting on his skin, his veins, and nerves. He is being killed by the thing that could sustain his own life. Killing him slowly until nothing left.

KRRRIIIEEKKKKK KRRRIIIEEKKKKK KRRRIIIEEKKKKK   

Screaming because of the everlasting pain. But what frightened him the most was that those garnet-like gemstones irises of the God-like human before him slowly turned silver. Devoid of emotions and feeling like a human being.

His last thoughts before he had completely gone crazy are: 'Ah~ this is not a God nor a human, but the Devil itself.'
