Chapter 360: 【281】Blood debt must be paid in blood (First release, asking for end-of-the-month votes)_1
“Boom!” A loud explosion interrupted Mr. Han’s words.
The signal was cut off instantly.
Many people rushed into the room, followed by a mocking voice.
“I knew those little mice from Central State were hiding here… Let’s see which boss from Central State it is this time?”
The door was broken open.
A group of armed personnel wearing Mech Bodies appeared, and a young man with flaming red hair quickly scanned the room, his gaze instinctively falling on the middle-aged man, but he didn’t recognize him.
Frowning, he said, “All small fries? What a waste of my time.”
He turned around.
The red-haired young man said lazily, “Take them all! Anyone who resists, execute them on the spot.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
“We are–” The middle-aged man responsible for the liaison tried to say something but was struck in the head with the butt of a gun.
Someone approached Pei Jinye, intending to directly suppress and apprehend him.
Pei Jinye said with amusement, “I must say, your security is dreadful; to let someone get this far. And even when discovered, you have no armed forces?”
Pei Jinye looked towards the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man’s head was being held down on the ground, leaving him unable to answer.
The next second.
Inside the room.
Sword Light flickered.
Instantly taking shape.
“Bang bang bang!”
Over a dozen figures were sent flying on the spot.
The red-haired young man was startled; he had just turned around when a large hand suddenly clamped on his face.
“You–”
“You what?”
With a massive roar, the earth shattered!
The four words “Pei Jinye” were spoken, and the ground around him immediately shook.
Originating from his formidable body, the air around was subjected to an extremely violent compression, creating a fierce explosion of rolling air currents amid the sharp howling.
The red-haired young man’s entire face was instantly disfigured.
Then, in a fraction of a blink of an eye, he was already seized by the face by Pei Jinye’s hand and smashed through the wall, disappearing from the spot.
The gloomy cavity left behind emitted plumes of dust that spread outwards.
The middle-aged man was completely stunned.
His mouth agape, he watched in shock as the wall of dust rushed towards him.
“He… this…”
He was so stunned that he couldn’t utter a single word for a long while.
Until someone stumbled back in from outside, and only then did the middle-aged man come to his senses, “What are the casualties?”
“Someone betrayed us, more than a dozen brothers have been sacrificed…” the voice of the young Confidential Clerk was charged with grief.
The middle-aged man cursed through gritted teeth.
“Chaotically!”
“Crash!”
From the adjacent room came the sound of falling stonework, making the middle-aged man’s scalp tingle. As he instinctively went on alert, he suddenly saw that familiar young figure, and the other figure in his grasp, limp as a dead dog.
“Tell all the surviving brothers to immediately destroy their identity locators, this base has been compromised…”
The middle-aged man’s face changed dramatically.
However, Pei Jinye casually threw the red-haired young man’s body on the ground and continued, “Fortunately, your identities haven’t been completely verified yet, so from the moment of exposure, you have at least seventeen minutes of safety. Seventeen minutes may be a short time, but it should be manageable for you.”
The middle-aged man’s face went through several changes.
“Sir, we are ordered to follow your command. This is the highest order from Central State.”
Upon hearing that, Pei Jinye looked over, “All of you are listening to me?”
“Yes, Sir!”
The middle-aged man stood at attention.
Pei Jinye said softly, “Then survive, and wait for Central State’s rescue.”
This time, having the base eliminated made Pei Jinye realize the intense degree of struggle they were in.
Rather than bringing these people along, it’s better to act alone.
“Commander?” The middle-aged man was stunned; he quickly said, “We can assassinate, set explosives, do network invasions, …”
Pei Jinye silently looked at him, then turned and strode away.
A voice came, “If you’re all not afraid of dying, then blow up Nagano’s military arsenal for me. Nagano will be responsible for all consequences.”
If the people of Nagano want to play dead, let them have the guts to keep pretending.
The middle-aged man was startled and replied loudly, “Understood.”
Pei Jinye turned and left.
The middle-aged man also took everyone and departed, the injured one way, the explosives team another.
…
Central State.
Mr. Han was still holding a satellite phone, his gaze calm, then he set it down.
But those who knew him must know…
This Secretary-General, who had taken over from Elder Cui and had governed Central State for many years, was truly angry.
“Issue the final notice, all consequences of the actions that Central State takes next will be the responsibility of the Western Continent!”
“By your command, Sir Han Sen.”
The sounds in the room disappeared as Mr. Han slowly put down the satellite phone.
The calendar beside him starkly displayed… Star Calendar 403, December 25th…
“Seems like in these last few days, no one can hold back anymore.”
…
…
Inside a secret passage leading to the Western Continent.
Gu Wutong wiped away the blood on his knife, murmuring to himself as he did: “Old Pei, brother is truly spilling blood for you this time.”
Corpses lay all around him.
The Western Continent now housed a large number of Transcendents. Gu Wutong hadn’t even seen the gates of Nagano, but he had already faced four brutal fights.
“Everyone, take a break right where you are.” The young man in black leading the team crisply pulled out some dried meat to start recovering.
About a dozen people didn’t mind sitting down on the ground, despite the cracks and crevices.
Gu Wutong opened his thermos, gulping down its contents, when suddenly, he sprayed out a mouthful of water.
He stared intently at the rolling clouds in the sky.
The young man in black leading immediately stopped chewing, agilely gripping his longsword, ready for action.
Everyone looked up at the sky.
Almost instantly, a fierce and massive creature burst through the clouds – it was a Rage Wing Dragon!
“It’s a Rage Wing Dragon!”
“Only the Huang Family and the Lei Family of the Western Continent are famous for beast taming, wonder which of the two it is?”
“It’s the Lei Family, they prefer the sky.”
“Such a big dragon, wonder which member of the Lei Family is traveling…” someone whispered quietly to the side.
“Such a big dragon… must taste quite good, right?” Gu Wutong mumbled to himself.
A few people turned their heads to look at him.
But the young man in black decisively said, “Rest over, let’s follow secretly while the Lei Family clears the path.”
Gu Wutong, with a gleaming gaze, quickly followed the Rage Wing Dragon.
…
In a mansion within Nagano.
Huang Tiansheng was writing something with a brush, his demeanor calm and composed.
If an outsider were to see him, they would be utterly shocked, for he was casually writing the mantra of an Advanced Heart Method.
Such a precious Advanced Heart Method, yet in the eyes of the young man, it seemed no secret worth keeping, as ordinary as cabbages by the roadside.
Beside him was another youth named Huang Tianbao.
“Brother Tiansheng, aren’t we going to make a move yet? I just got the news, the Lei Family even got out the Rage Wing Dragon, they’re coming on strong, not even bothering to conceal it on our Huang Family’s turf, I want to take them out along with their people.”
“Let them seek the spotlight at this critical moment if that’s what they want,” Huang Tiansheng said as he finished the last stroke, stepped back, and began to carefully admire his work.
“The news on the market is so complicated right now, I can barely tell which ones are true.” Huang Tianbao frowned and said, “One says it’s in the hands of the Nangong Family, another says it’s with the Ruby Foundation… and there’s this ludicrous claim that it’s with that kid from Central State, is that even possible?”
“The less likely it seems, the more possible it becomes,” Huang Tiansheng glanced at him indifferently.
