Chapter 180: [157] No one can stop me, Pei Jinye, from killing those I want to kill! (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and support)_1
“A physical body transcendent… seems to be quite rare,”
Pei Jinye mused.
Suddenly, he remembered the gang of ruthless bandits he had encountered at Broken Cloud Mountain.
The reason why he remembered them so clearly was that, when he used Xu Tian’s Light Slash, it had actually been partially blocked by a bald bandit, which was very noteworthy…
“Body Shield…”
On his attribute panel, the gray colored Extraordinary Talent for Body·Body Shield was in a gray-white state.
“Pending activation… Let’s activate it then!”
Pei Jinye waved his hand.
“Where are the death warriors!”
Approaching eleven o’clock in the morning, the Jiang family’s Black Armor Death Warriors quickly mobilized, but did not attract the attention of the authorities.
Their daily training results were surprisingly good.
This secret operation did not alert any forces at all.
And their target this time was a group of bandits roaming in Broken Cloud Mountain.
If Pei Jinye had not devoured the memory of the bald bandit, even if given several days, he might not have been able to quickly find the other party in this city of several million people.
At the northern entrance of Broken Cloud Mountain, a van stopped, and several burly men got out, apparently just having had a dispute over something, cursing and shouting as they got out of the vehicle, becoming more and more intense.
It was the bearded man leading them who broke it up.
“We’re brothers who’ve been through life and death together, is there any need to fight over a woman like this!”
Before he could utter a second sentence.
Suddenly countless red dots targeted them.
The atmosphere instantly stiffened.
“Don’t shoot, brothers outside, can you say which road you’re from? Maybe we’re brothers of the same family.”
The bearded man shouted loudly in a hurry.
“Bang!”
However, the response to him was a gunshot.
The next moment.
Gunshots rang out.
The bald thug was so frightened that he hugged his head and crouched on the ground, the blood splashing around him like a heavy rain soaking him to the core.
His legs went weak from fear.
The dense gunfire ringing in his ears even made him despair.
Suddenly the gunfire stopped.
A hand picked him up.
“Don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!” the bald thug pleaded incoherently.
However, the Black Armor Death Warrior grabbed his head and faced the tablet.
[Iris verification successful.]
“Target captured.”
Having said that, the Black Armor Death Warrior knocked the bald thug unconscious with an indifferent one-handed blow, and effortlessly picked him up.
After throwing him into the car.
It wasn’t long before.
Five bulletproof hover cars quickly left the scene.
At lunchtime.
The long table was filled with various delicious dishes, almost all of them made from exquisite ingredients.
And the only person dining here was “Jiang Qingcang,” with several neatly dressed kitchen maids standing in front of the table, waiting with their heads bowed.
At this moment, the middle-aged butler approached swiftly, whispering in a low voice, “Master, the person has been brought back.”
“Jiang Qingcang” continued eating leisurely, “I know.”
Seeing this, the middle-aged butler fell silent, respectfully waiting to the side.
Thirty minutes later.
“Zzt!”
A jolt of electricity flashed by.
Li Zhisan abruptly woke up, instinctively trying to raise his hand to block the strong light from outside, only to be shocked to find his hands were bound by chains.
The piercing light forced him to shut his eyes tightly.
The sound of the chains scraping on the floor was extremely harsh.
But it made his vanished memories suddenly flood back.
The red dots appearing out of nowhere at the base of the mountain… the blood splatter bursting from Big Head’s skull… the rain of blood under the dense gunfire…
Everything suddenly came rushing back to mind.
“You…”
He tried to say something.
But his throat, not having spoken for a long time, didn’t manage to say anything at first attempt.
However, it seemed that the person in the room had no mood to talk to him.
“Enter the dream!”
His mind was overwhelmed with a surge of memories.
Pei Jinye’s mouth slowly became smug.
On the attribute panel.
The long-missed Body·Body Shield was reactivated.
Thanks to the second Blood Lotus he had condensed, Pei Jinye felt that when he activated the Body·Body Shield again, the effect was significantly more than three times stronger than before!
“Indeed, the physical body is equivalent to the foundation; the outer transcendence can unleash even more powerful strength on this foundation,”
“With this…”
Pei Jinye narrowed his eyes.
He circled Xu Tian’s name with a red marker.
Then, flames flickered in his hand.
The paper burned to ashes before him.
At the headquarters of Da Peng City Night Patrol.
Xu Tian moved his prosthetic limb and looked up at the white lab coat in front of him, “Doctor Huang, when can we get the latest materials?”
“How many more days?” The man in yellow adjusted his glasses and asked, “Do you feel discomfort anywhere?”
“Not uncomfortable, it’s just that prosthetics made of this material are easily shattered,” said Xu Tian, concerned about encountering the martial arts master who had attempted to assassinate him.
“You’re overthinking it, Mr. Xu. Although this material isn’t the best, it’s the second best. It’s used for its memory function and as long as it isn’t subjected to a strong attack within three seconds…”
Dr. Huang hadn’t finished speaking when Xu Tian interrupted him, “Go and hurry them up for me. One day at most, that’s all I can give, one day. I must see the latest model. Tell them directly that I’m from the Judgement Place, understand?”
He fixed his gaze on Dr. Huang’s eyes and asked.
Dr. Huang shrugged and nodded.
It was only after Xu Tian had left that he curled his lips and shook his head, “What an impolite fellow.”
Xu Tian settled into the hover car.
The phone inside vibrated.
After seeing it, he returned an encrypted call to the other party.
Soon.
The call connected, and a young woman’s voice came through, “I have found the information you asked me to look for. Although I don’t know why you are interested in a high school student, I can responsibly tell you that there’s nothing unusual about that student’s family history…”
Xu Tian’s eyebrows knitted together, “Not a single abnormality?”
Yang Qingdan’s voice paused, “But the records from over a hundred years ago are missing… You know, there was an incident with the records department back then, so it might be that they weren’t recorded… It’s certain that his background is clean, just a humble family.”
“A humble family…” Xu Tian turned his head to look out the car window at the sky, under the glass it seemed as if a layer of mist were obscuring something, “This kid always gives me an unfathomable feeling, this feeling…”
“You might be overthinking it.” Yang Qingdan didn’t take Pei Jinye seriously. After a pause, she said, “Xu Tian, I’m trying to find a way to get you back to headquarters. I’ve heard the Elder from the Old Gods Association has set his sights on the six cities of Jiangnan. Although I can’t be sure what he wants to do, it’s certainly not safe for you in Da Peng City.”
“Thanks, Dan sister, but I’m not planning to go back for now,” Xu Tian sighed, “Zhao Qianfeng is dead, yet I’m alive. Even if I return, his master definitely won’t let me off. Only if I can capture a core member of the Old Gods Association in Da Peng City will the Great Priest protect me.”
Don’t do anything reckless. Next year will be a great opportunity for your promotion. Although this mission encountered some problems, after all, you have made a significant discovery…”
Yang Qingdan seemed to want to persuade him further, but Xu Tian glanced at the time, “Alright, Dan sister, I’m clear about it. This time the higher-ups have tasked me with scrutinizing that little guy from the Wei Family… I hope he turns out to be of some use. It’s been almost two minutes, we’ll connect again if there’s anything.”
He hung up the call.
Xu Tian sat silently alone in the hover car.
Frankly speaking.
He didn’t care about Da Peng City at all.
From the very beginning.
He was only there to complete the mission assigned to him from above, expecting it to be as easy as it had once been.
Yet, he hadn’t expected Da Peng City to be not only so thoroughly infiltrated by the Old Gods Association but also an extremely complex environment!
After being “taught a lesson” by mysterious powerhouses one after another, Xu Tian was frustrated with nowhere to vent!
The reason he stayed this time.
Was not only to complete the mission from above but also to capture the assailant who had attacked him last time and then… take him back to the Judgement Place for a ruthless verdict!
Xu Tian started the hover car and left the Night Patrol Headquarters.
At this moment, the communicator rang.
He pressed the answer button.
Immediately, the voice of Qiu Hezi from Investigation Team Group Two came through, “Mr. Xu, we might need your help regarding Chief Xie’s matter.”
“Isn’t this case being handled independently by your Investigation Team?” Xu Tian frowned, subconsciously not wanting to get too close to the Investigation Team.
After all, the Investigation Team from Central State is ultimately that person’s territory.
And his Judgement Place was not on very friendly terms with that person.
“Just an hour ago, we found suspicious fire traces at the last place where Chief Xie disappeared. We might need your Judgement Place’s secret technique to lock down the scene… Please, Mr. Xu,” Qiu Hezi earnestly pleaded.
Xu Tian was reluctant to agree, but after Qiu Hezi subtly mentioned compensation, he dispelled the idea of outright rejection.
After all, due to the expenses for his prosthetics, he had indeed been spending too much lately.
“You give me the address, I’ll stop by City Hall to pick up the materials and then head over.”
“Sure, Mr. Xu, thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule.”
The call ended.
Xu Tian’s expression showed no change.
He drove into City Hall.
Ten minutes later, he got back into the car with the file bag and sat down to start figuring out the location sent from the Investigation Team.
“Looks like it’s a bit of a distance…”
Xu Tian sighed.
If it weren’t for the assistance fee, he really wouldn’t want to go.
“What a hassle.”
He muttered to himself.
Xu Tian drove on, crossing two districts, with a drive time of at least fifty minutes.
“This is too much trouble!”
Seeing the drive time, Xu Tian became even more irritated.
He immediately activated the hover mode.
Twenty minutes later.
He was passing through an old residential area.
Suddenly, the hovercar issued a braking warning, and Xu Tian felt a bad premonition well up inside him.
In the past month, hovercar accidents had not been uncommon.
He did not want to become another tragic figure in the hovercar accident reports.
He quickly stretched out his hand and pressed down on the screen.
However, it was already locked, and he couldn’t control it.
In the instant the screen went black, he ripped off his seatbelt and hammered the roof with his steel prosthetic limb.
“Chaotically!”
A single punch down, yet it did not break through.
The sensation of falling came abruptly.
Xu Tian’s face turned ashen, and he tore open the roof in one swift move. As the hovercar plummeted, he nearly flew out in a vertical escape.
“Bang!”
The collision sound of the hovercar landing scattered countless sparks under the dim canopy, creating visible electrical arcs reflected in Xu Tian’s peripheral vision.
And with it came a wave of cold light!
Xu Tian’s heart abruptly stopped.
“As expected! Another assassination!”
Rolling in midair, a sudden burst of golden light erupted.
“Pff!”
A pained roar came from Xu Tian’s throat. The moment he fell to the ground, a string of bright red blood beads floated from his arm.
“Wei Xia was killed by you, right? The previous two car accidents were also your doing, weren’t they!?”
Xu Tian roared lowly.
However, what came towards him was a terribly cold blade light!
In this moment, the killing intent boiled over!
