Ultragene Warlord

A blizzard formed around Zhang Hanxiang. Her hands glowed brightly in blue, freezing heaven and earth and sending the battlefield into the deep of winter. A burst of icy energy emanated from her, freezing large patches of the black spirits.

"Didn't I tell you already? You're the commander, and I'm your subordinate! Our role is to command the army from beyond the midst of battle. If something happens to either of us, the entire army will cease to function!" As Hong Xi spoke, she formed a silver sword in her hand out of genetic energy. "[The Hidden Moon]!" 

The sword, imbued with moonlight, seemed to cut apart a silvery veil in the sky.

"You can stay back and command!" Zhang Hanxiang skated over the frozen ground, her body as limber and agile as an acrobat's. Blades of ice formed by her feet, which she shot at Zhang Lie.

"I can't! Captain told me to protect you, so don't fool around!" Hong Xi waved her fan. Her sword glinted with moonlight, and she shot forward once more.

"Ha! I rather think you want to demonstrate your prowess on the battlefield as well. Admit it!" Zhang Hanxiang waved her hand, sending out a flurry of ice spikes.

If Zhang Lie were paying attention to the two women, he would surely have shot down toward them and teach them a lesson, but he had other things on his mind at the moment.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Hundred Dragons Soaring]!" Zhang Lie cocked back his left arm, channeling his genetic energy into the attack, and sent its full force at the black spirits.

Howling with the force of thunder, a horde of over a hundred black dragons flew into the air. They were fierce and domineering, their trajectories criss-crossing as they formed a black flood across the sky.

Just then, a group of blood-colored figures appeared in sight, emerging from the flanks of the death spirits' battleships and blocking their retreat.

"Those are..."

Zhang Lie frowned.

The commander of the frost spirits remarked in shock, "Those are the remnants of Blood Heaven's forces! What opportune timing."

Coincidentally or otherwise, those forces blocked the death spirits' retreat.

"Charge forward! Take revenge for our destroyed world!"

"Don't leave even a single death spirit alive!"

"Kill them all!"

Their successful sneak attack prevented the death spirits from escaping and caused them to incur significant losses. A titanic figure of blood stood tall and firm, dyeing the entire sky blood-red.

With a wave of its hand, it knocked aside a large portion of the death spirits' battleships and held them off long enough for Zhang Lie and the others to catch up. Zhang Lie's black dragons exploded in mid-air, buffeting the battleships with the black energy of annihilation.

The death spirits' forces, surrounded by the forces of the nine other superior worlds, were slaughtered to the last.

Zhang Lie secretly kept a few battered death spirits' battleships in his extra-dimensional storage, intending to analyze them carefully after the war was over.

The leader of the solar corps commented, "I thought that all of Blood Heaven's forces would have been converted into black spirits, but it looks like there were a group of you who managed to avoid their grasp."

Zhang Lie scanned the remaining forces of Blood Heaven. The blood demons were tall and muscled, blood-colored all over, with ferocious expressions on their faces. The iron tang of blood surrounded them.

Just like in Zhang Lie's past life, Blood Heaven had been destroyed by the death spirits before the war began in earnest. However, in the past, there was no mention that a group of forces had survived and participated in the offense against the death spirits.

"Could they have been on this battlefield in the past, too? In the past, the allied forces had won this battle, and there were no survivors, but now..."

Clearly, things had changed because of Zhang Lie's participation. In his past life, despite the allied forces' victory, they had suffered great losses in this confrontation, but in this life, they had barely lost any troops. Zhang Lie's arrival had transformed the direction of this battle.

The captain of the solar corps continued, "And I could never have expected your survival, blood lord."

The titanic, bloody figure shrunk down into the size of an ordinary, dark red blood demon.

The blood lord replied, "If not for the blood king sacrificing his life to defend against the death spirit king and blocking his forces, I couldn't have escaped with these blood demons."

The captain of the solar corps frowned. "Are the death spirits so strong that even you and your men can't stand against them?"

The blood lord nodded. "They're stronger than you can imagine."

Zhang Lie interrupted, "We're still on the battlefield, and we shouldn't be discussing such matters right now."

The other leaders nodded.

The blood lord asked, "I've never seen your face. Who are you?"

The blood lord couldn't identify from which of the superior worlds Zhang Lie had come.

"You're certainly very strong. The only ones who would send subordinates on the level of a superior king to the battlefield are the strongest king, the king of chaos, or the most ancient king, the king of keys. The other superior kings don't have such deep pockets, but it's evident that you're a subordinate of neither king. I can't imagine which king you serve..."

When he noticed Zhang Hanxiang and Hong Xi behind him, chasing after the rest of the black spirits, Zhang Lie couldn't help but frown. "I'll talk to you later. I have some affairs to take care of immediately." Zhang Lie brusquely ended the conversation and flew off toward his own troops.

The frost spirit commander suggested, "Once we're done cleaning up the battlefield, let's meet up and have a chat."

The blood lord nodded. "I have important news to report to you all."

The combined forces of the nine superior worlds, along with the aliens of the three thousand worlds, easily dealt with the remnants of the black spirits.

After the end of the battle, Zhang Lie didn't praise Hong Xi or Zhang Hanxiang. Instead, he sternly confronted them both. "Well done, my dear sister. As the commander of the draconian world's forces, you charged forward all by yourself into enemy territory, slaughtering the black spirits in your path and displaying your prowess for all to see."

Zhang Hanxiang smiled. "Ah, Brother, if you keep praising me like that, I'll get embarrassed!"

Zhang Lie glared. "Do you think I'm praising you?!"

Zhang Hanxiang lowered her head and wrung her hands as though she were a child who had made a mistake.

Zhang Lie sighed. "Hanxiang, you're a woman. Why are you so absorbed in battle, so much more rash and rambunctious than even most men?"

Zhang Hanxiang seriously considered her brother's words for a moment. "It must be because I was deprived of such things in my childhood, so I craved them more as an adult..."
