Chapter 2888: Heaven's Revenge!
As long as there was profit to be made, Jiangnan was all in!
Completely abandoning his humanity, he became an Ancestor Killer, specifically targeting the ancestral elders of various clans!
The members of those races were furious; this was a blatant insult!
But Jiangnan was thrilled. Following this trend, if he could sweep through the Matter Alliance instance from start to finish, wouldn't the progress bar skyrocket?
However, that said, there was a technique to beating up other races' ancestors who hadn't reached the Star Devourer level!
He had to hold back his strength; otherwise, he might accidentally kill them!
And this was even with Lingmiao frantically hanging healing spells on those ancestors!
It kept them teetering on the brink of life and death, but there were inevitably times when he messed up and killed them!
That was when Mila's role came into play—she'd use Time Reversal to bring them back, and then Jiangnan would start beating them again!
To gather grudge points and fill up the progress bar, one could see just how inhuman Jiangnan really was!
Xijin was beaten to tears, spewing tin juice everywhere!
Where was this beating someone up? Even forging iron wasn't this brutal!
His spirit was on the verge of collapse; it was worse than death!
The problem was, with Mila around, he couldn't even die if he wanted to!
The Ancestor of the Xijin Clan never imagined in his life that, as a Star Breaker-level being, he'd have the chance to fight so many Star Devourer big shots and the Southern God at the same time and survive!
If he bragged about this to the younger generation later, they wouldn't believe it, would they?
I really gotta thank you all, don't I?
And Jiangnan's antics directly sparked a wave of abdication across the various races of the Matter Alliance!
(◞¯͒͟ʖ¯͒) "Son? I'm getting old. Holding onto the clan's power forever isn't right. Besides me, you're the highest-ranked in our clan!"
"I think it's time for me to step down and enjoy some peace and quiet. You're more suited for the position of leader!"
"Here! Take this star ring, symbolizing the leader's position, today!"
After saying that, the Ancestor directly pulled off the ring and shoved it into his son's hand!
The son shook his head frantically like a rattle-drum!
(ﾟ﹏ﾟ≡ﾟ﹏ﾟ) "No, no, no! Dad, you're still in great shape, and you're highly respected. The leader's position has to be you!"
Bullshit! You just don't want to be beaten by Jiangnan, so you're passing the position to me, right? I begged you so many times before, and you never wanted to hand it over. Why are you so eager today?
The Ancestor glared:
(◞･ˇ͟ʖˇ･) "Nonsense! I say you can do it, and that's that! Weren't you the one who wanted to be the leader before? It's you. Take this ring, you little brat!"
੧੧(꒦ິ益꒦ີ*) "No! Really, I can't! You keep being the leader! If you really want to pass it to me, do it in a month!"
(◞艹͟ʖ艹) "Bullshit! You're disobeying your father now? Put this ring on!"
"I won't! Today, I'd rather die than take the position!"
"You little bastard! You're taking the leader position today, and that's final! I have to retire! You're young; you can take the heat. This old body of mine can't take a beating!"
The two of them started wrestling, turning the hall into a mess, both trying to force the star ring onto the other's hand, putting on a heartwarming scene of filial piety and fatherly love!
Just then, Jiangnan's voice came from outside!
(͡°ʖ̫°)✧ "No need to pass it on; do it together! Father and son on the battlefield! Get beaten lightly!"
Hearing this, both their faces turned green!
They weren't leaving any room to survive, were they?
What else could they do? Go out and get beaten!
For the sake of the race!
"Dad! Can you hold me in your arms for a bit? I want to experience your warm embrace one more time!"
Ancestor: ~%?…;#*'☆℃!
……
The universe-wide "Kuangkang Beating Tour" continued. Jiangnan was determined to sweep through all over two thousand races of the Matter Alliance!
And the harmonious scene of abdication was playing out in various races!
As for the Silicon-Based race's actions, Jiangnan understood clearly. Brother Fan had finally taken control of the Silicon-Based race, seemingly preparing to start collecting matter.
And with the Silicon-Based race's help, the impossible would become possible!
Regarding this, Jiangnan currently had no solution. He could only grit his teeth and endure, dealing with the immediate problem first!
What else could he do?
Start a war with the Silicon-Based race? Rush over and cross swords with Jiang Fan?
When this world-ending fire hadn't yet reached the Carbon Alliance, Jiangnan could only hold his position and continue his plan to collect grudge points!
As the universe-wide beating tour continued, time gradually passed.
Sweeping through and beating numb over two thousand races of the Matter Alliance would still take some time!
During this period, Wanxiang, true to expectations, didn't step in to stop them!
On one hand, Jiangnan was hard to deal with; on the other hand, Wanxiang was even more afraid that Jiang Fan would also come to join the fun!
After all, even the Origin Machine wasn't a match for Jiang Fan. If Jiangnan and Jiang Fan gave him a combined double beating, that would really be enough for him to handle!
As promised, Jiangnan only beat people and didn't cause any substantial damage to the member races of the Matter Alliance!
But the psychological trauma was inflicted, the kind that would never heal in a lifetime!
Now, under the starry sky, no one was unaware of Jiangnan's infamy. He was a true ultimate villain. Countless people were hoping for Jiangnan's death!
He was feared at the mere mention of his name, his reputation terrifying!
The entire Matter Alliance had contracted a disease called "difficult and complicated ailments," incurable!
But after getting beaten for so long, the member races of the Matter Alliance were completely numb to it, even taking it in stride!
When they saw their own ancestors getting pummeled, they weren't even that angry anymore, since other clans' ancestors had also been beaten!
They had actually developed a "resistance to being beaten" from Jiangnan's rampage, can you believe it?
As a result, the efficiency of grudge point collection naturally decreased!
Originally, according to the previous progress, after sweeping the Matter Alliance, the over two thousand races grinding grudge points day and night should have filled the progress bar smoothly!
But with the drop in efficiency, after Jiangnan finished sweeping the entire Matter Alliance, the progress bar was only about two-thirds full!
This made Jiangnan incredibly anxious!
Go after the Silicon-Based race? Not only were they now Brother Fan's people, making it hard for Jiangnan to act, but the Silicon-Based race was also a bunch of data. What kind of grudge points could he get from beating them?
Beating them would be useless. What about the Bose race?
Although the Bose race was the number one race in the starry sky with a large population, it wasn't absurdly large!
The grudge points from one race alone would be useless; it wouldn't even be enough to fill his teeth!
He'd swept over two thousand races of the Matter Alliance and still hadn't filled it!
And the Bose race was holed up in the Eternal World. Besides dismantling some of their external assets, mines, and trash-talking Bose, there wasn't much he could do!
It was tough!
At this moment, the Kuangkang Beating Crew all looked like they still wanted more!
Going on this trip with the Southern God, they had not only vented all their anger but also had a great time!
When had they ever had this much fun?
Was this the thrill of running rampant and dominating the starry sky? Being a bully was way too satisfying!
Chong Feiyu said excitedly:
(งᵒ̌ꇴ⁼ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃ "Southern God? We've beaten all the Matter Alliance. Where to next?"
"Silicon-Based? Or Bose?"
Jiangnan propped his chin:
(͡°ก͡°) "Those two are hard to deal with. And there's not much profit!"
Noya said thoughtfully:
(◕･ˇ_ˇ･) "True, but the momentum of the Kuangkang Beating Crew can't just stop here!"
"How about you just pick a random direction, and we all head over. Whoever we meet, we beat them up, what do you think?"
Yakeli's mouth twitched. You guys have really abandoned your humanity, haven't you?
But it does sound like it could be fun!
Jiangnan was still deep in thought, then his eyes lit up!
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "Hey, what do you think? If I were to beat you guys up in front of your clansmen, would your clansmen hate me?"
Hearing this, Noya and the others all froze, turning to stone instantly, then jumped back a mile!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)...
(•́益•̀٥) "Hiss... you're not serious, are you?"
What kind of inhuman mindset made you suggest that?
Have you gotten too into the beating? You're not even sparing your own people?
Jiangnan shrugged: ╮(•́～•̀)╭ "Of course! Do I look like I'm joking? Just tell me, if I did that, would your clansmen hate me or not?"
Bannimei and the others' faces turned green!
੧੧꒰°﹏°〃꒱ "Don't... don't do that, okay? We're all on the same side, comrades in arms who beat people together!"
"If you do that, we'll definitely be hated by our clansmen!"
Upon hearing this, Jiangnan's eyes shone with blinding light:
(ʃƪ✧ꇴ✧) "What? That's great!"
"Get ready! I'm about to start fighting!"
Saying this, he started rolling up his sleeves, looking like he was about to throw down!
Noya's face turned white with fear!
Do you have some kind of disease?
They'll hate you, and you still want to do it?
What kind of mentality is that?
You won't rest until you've pissed off the entire starry sky? It's like you can't stand having even one person not hating you?
Having just beaten up other clans' Star Devourers, now it was their turn?
This really was Heaven's Revenge. No one who gets beaten escapes!
What goes around comes around!
(٥ﾟ益ﾟ)ﾂ "Wait! Hold up!"
Noya rushed forward to stop Jiangnan!
(´-益-`٥) "Don't! Don't do it! Bannimei is a complete idiot; what does he know? After this round, you've vented for the Carbon Alliance, brought glory to the races, and your prestige has reached its peak!"
"Even if you beat us up, they'd think you were just kindly training our Star Devourer combat power. They'd only respect you more! How could they resent you?"
He then frantically winked at Bannimei!
Bannimei recalled the pitiful state of the Star Devourers he'd beaten and shivered violently, quickly saying:
꒰•́﹏•̀٥꒱ "Ah! Right, right! I was wrong just now; I'm a complete idiot!"
To avoid being beaten, Bannimei threw caution to the wind!
Chong Qianjin quickly chimed in:
(°～°〃) "Exactly! Don't forget, you're the Alliance Leader of the Carbon Alliance. With your status, no matter how excessive you are to the various races, it's only natural. They only have respect for you in their hearts. How could they possibly resent you?"
"Besides, they're all counting on you now!"
Jiangnan heard this and grinned:
(˵ಡꇴಡ) "So doing anything excessive is only natural?"
"Then perfect! I'll just try it out. What if they do resent me?"
The Star Devourers all had black faces. Your mental state is definitely abnormal!
They all glared at Chong Qianjin, grinding their teeth!
If you don't know how to talk, just don't talk!
Noya was on the verge of tears:
(‧̣̥̇꒦ິ益꒦ີ) "We're on your side! Don't beat us! Spare us, we still have our dignity!"
"Please! Can you just be human for once? Go sweep the Matter Alliance again, just don't beat us! Can you bear to?"
