Top-Tier Female, All Beastmen Want Her

When the giant Zerg suddenly appeared before Jiang Zheyu, her heart still tightened in her chest.

A fine sheen of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

But she wouldn’t be scared this time. Everything happened in an instant; she focused her spiritual power and attacked.

It was over in a flash.

The massive black Zerg instantly exploded into smithereens in mid-air, its blood bursting outward like a firework.

With that explosive sound, Jiang Zheyu’s heart began to pound violently in sync.

The Beastman Mechas that had been about to charge and attack the Zerg all stopped in mid-air, staring at the scene before them in disbelief.

They hadn’t even launched a single attack, yet the giant Zerg had inexplicably, suddenly burst apart. It was blown to pieces, as dead as could be.

Building A had already collapsed into a pile of ruins.

The moon of the Deserted Star was always shrouded in a mottled fog, so the light it cast was never bright.

But now, outside, the ruins were clearly visible.

Everything was cast in shades of gray, black, and other dim colors.

Shan Xun looked at Jiang Zheyu, who was in the giant Mecha’s hand.

Jiang Zheyu’s heart hadn’t calmed down yet; it was still pounding relentlessly.

’Yes, alright!’

’I finally managed to kill a Zerg using my spiritual power.’

’Now that I’ve done it once, I’ll definitely get more and more used to it!’

Jiang Zheyu was full of motivation, even wanting to go out and hunt more Zerg to kill.

Shan Xun placed Jiang Zheyu on the ground, and she hopped down from his palm.

Soon, Shan Xun transformed back into his human form. He stood beside Jiang Zheyu, remaining silent for a moment before speaking slowly, "Did you kill that Zerg just now with your spiritual power?"

"Yes, it was me!" Jiang Zheyu happily grabbed both of Shan Xun’s hands, her pair of tea-colored eyes sparkling as she looked up at him. "Wasn’t I amazing just now?"

Her heart still hadn’t settled down.

After all, it was the first time she had crushed a Zerg to death with her spiritual power.

Shan Xun’s gaze fell on Jiang Zheyu’s sparkling, tea-colored eyes. He then nodded. "Very amazing."

He had actually detected a formidable burst of spiritual power erupting from his palm and rushing toward the Zerg. So, it was no surprise that Jiang Zheyu had been the one to attack it with her spiritual power.

That immense spiritual power had pulverized the Zerg directly.

It was powerful and incredible.

But that was precisely why it was so shocking.

Because currently, no Beastman’s spiritual power was capable of directly crushing and tearing apart the Zerg Race.

Even he couldn’t use his spiritual power to tear a Zerg apart directly.

In the entire history of the interstellar era, there had never been a figure who could directly tear a Zerg to shreds.

Yet now, the female before him could tear a Zerg apart relying on her own extraordinarily high spiritual power.

"Host, you have finally risen." The System’s gratified voice sounded in Jiang Zheyu’s ear. "If you didn’t rise up soon, you would have completely wasted your Level 7S spiritual power."

Hearing the System’s words, Jiang Zheyu’s furiously pounding heart gradually calmed.

The surrounding Beastmen all stood frozen in place, their gazes fixed on Jiang Zheyu. Their looks, filled with astonishment and fervor, were both furtive and intense.

"Alright, clean this place up," Shan Xun said, his expression turning cold and severe as he looked at the other Beastmen.

Upon hearing Shan Xun’s voice, all the Beastmen seemed to snap back to their senses. They averted their gazes from Jiang Zheyu, not daring to peek at her again.

They began dealing with the collapsed ruins and the Zerg’s body.

"Let’s go to the laboratory building to stay for the night," Shan Xun said, taking Jiang Zheyu’s hand and leading her toward it.

"Okay," Jiang Zheyu nodded.

Jiang Zheyu belatedly realized she was covered in Zerg blood.

But the water and power were still out, and the surroundings remained pitch-black.

’What should I do? What am I going to do about all this Zerg blood on me?’

She could tolerate not showering for one night, but she couldn’t stand the thought of being covered in Zerg blood and not washing it off all night.

She followed Shan Xun for a while before speaking slowly, "Shan Xun, why are the water and power out at the research base today?"

’I’ll start with this topic, then slowly feel out if there’s any water source for a shower.’ 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"A cosmic interference stream is disrupting this planet," Shan Xun explained. "That’s why the interstellar Star Network can’t reach here. With the Star Network disrupted by the interference, the water and power go out. This situation happens frequently on other Deserted Stars."

Shan Xun was clearly used to a Deserted Star suddenly losing its connection to the Star Network.

So, he didn’t think much of it.

"Then when will the interference stream pass? When will the water and power be restored?" Jiang Zheyu asked again.

"A cosmic interference stream usually takes three to four days to pass," Shan Xun told her.

This was just Shan Xun’s estimate based on the current stream; sometimes, the disruption from an interference stream could last for over a month.

Shan Xun had even gone a whole month with no water, no power, and no Star Network, completely cut off from the Imperial City. He had endured it, isolated on the Deserted Star.

So, three to four days was actually quite fast.

When Jiang Zheyu heard this answer, her expression couldn’t help but stiffen.

She had thought the outage would only last a day. Who knew it would be for three to four days?

"Do you have any stored water?" Jiang Zheyu asked.

It was only then that Shan Xun seemed to belatedly realize that the Zerg blood from the back of her hand had gotten onto the back of his own.

He looked down and saw that there was Zerg blood on her face again.

He remembered she had been unhappy for a long time last time because of this.

"We don’t have stored water," Shan Xun said slowly. "But this Deserted Star has groundwater."

"There’s water? Then why couldn’t I get any from the faucet in my room’s bathroom?" Jiang Zheyu asked in surprised confusion.

It was because she couldn’t get any water, and there was no electricity, that she had assumed the water and power were completely out.

"Because the water supply system also requires electricity to function. With the power out, it can’t operate, so the water can’t be supplied," Shan Xun explained slowly. "I’ll take you to a room in the laboratory building to settle in first. I’ll get some water for you later."

"Okay, thank you, Captain Shan," Jiang Zheyu said with a genuine smile.

’As long as this Deserted Star still has groundwater, then it’s fine.’

’A power outage is bearable, but a water outage would be completely unacceptable.’

’Thankfully, this Deserted Star still has water.’

Shan Xun led her to the laboratory building.

"This room is a bit simple. Please make do for now," Shan Xun said as he led her to a room.

Jiang Zheyu’s gaze swept across the interior. It was indeed quite simple.

A bed, a folded quilt and a pillow, a table, a stool, and that was it.

But the room was very clean, as if someone came to tidy it regularly.

’This couldn’t be another Beastman’s room, could it? Otherwise, if no one lives here, why would it be so clean?’
