Chapter 365: Killing Gods and Blocking Buddhas
2024-11-10
"How is that possible!"
Upon hearing these words, Gu Changjun's drowsiness vanished.
"A Tier 4 Defensive Artifact is worth several tens of millions at the very least. If it's an intermediate one, it could be worth over a hundred million. He doesn't even have enough for himself, and you want to give it to that kid? Do you take him for a fool?"
"It's just a precaution, isn't it?" Huang Xing said with a forced smile.
"Even if he has a Tier 4 Basic Defensive Artifact, it would take me some time to deal with him, considering the S-Class Alloy Warblade in my hand. So, I want to ask Young Master Fifth for one or two Tier 4 Advanced Runes, or a better Alloy Warblade would also do."
At this, Gu Changjun frowned.
"Don't you already have an S-Class Warblade? Even if it delays me a bit, what can others do to me? Are you afraid of them?"
"I'm not worried about others, but if Gu Changkong arrives, it might become troublesome. He's not a Grandmaster, but if he comes with some powerful runes, it could be difficult. Moreover..." Huang Xing hesitated.
"Although I have something to disguise my aura, it's impossible to completely hide it. The higher one's psychic energy, the easier it is to detect the disguise. When he arrives, he might suspect us."
"Then let's wait until he arrives."
Gu Changjun was annoyed by Huang Xing's overly cautious behavior.
"Uncle Huang, you're a Grandmaster, a Grandmaster! You can take on ten Tenth Rank Force Warriors, let alone three or four. Not to mention an Eighth or Ninth Rank Force Warrior, you can handle it with one hand. Alright, let's do it this way. I hope that the next time you call me, it's to tell me you've caught the person, not to complain. Oh, and do it as soon as possible. I want to see the results by tonight."
After saying this, he hung up the phone and muttered to himself.
To be fair, hadn't he been treating Huang Xing well? The Tier 4 Basic Defensive Artifact, the S-Class Warblade, and various cultivation resources Huang Xing had—weren't they all given by him?
Yet, Huang Xing was now asking for even more advanced items.
He wasn't going to be fooled so easily!
"Sigh."
Hearing the busy tone from the phone, Huang Xing let out a soft sigh.
He knew that with Gu Changjun's personality, the chances of success this time were slim.
"Since that's the case, let's prepare to make our move after Gu Changkong leaves."
He looked towards the experimental building, a glint flashing in his eyes.
Gu Changjun had said he wanted to see results by tonight.
If he waited until evening like yesterday, Gu Changkong might appear with Jiang Cheng again, leaving no opportunity to strike.
...
In the Alchemy Chamber.
Gu Changkong watched as Jiang Cheng successfully refined a batch of pills, producing five or six Beginner Spirit Awakening Pills with the provided ingredients, clearly demonstrating a basic level of proficiency.
"Well done, Jiang, I knew you could do it!" Gu Changkong praised with a smile.
Jiang Cheng smiled back at him.
Knowing that Gu Changkong was under immense pressure, Jiang Cheng felt it necessary to showcase his progress and ease his mind.
"Alright, I won't disturb you further. Keep up the good work with your alchemy, and stay focused." Gu Changkong patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder and left the room, gently closing the door behind him.
For the rest of the day, he planned to cultivate directly, as cultivating psychic energy didn't require as much as martial arts training; a quiet environment would suffice.
However, as the overall supervisor, he couldn't ignore unexpected issues that might arise, and it wasn't realistic to stay in the laboratory all day.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and by noon, Gu Changkong received a phone call. He answered briefly and then hung up, heading outside.
"He's finally out."
Upon seeing this, Huang Xing felt his teeth itch with anger.
He had initially thought it wouldn't take long for Gu Changkong to emerge, but to his surprise, he had waited for the entire morning! Yet, he didn't rush to act, fearing the embarrassment if Gu Changkong were to return.
After waiting for several more minutes, he finally stood up, clutching an S-Class Alloy Warblade in his right hand. In the blink of an eye, he charged into the laboratory.
"Who's there?"
"Intruder alert!"
"Stop!"
Moments later, several Mind Masters discovered his intrusion.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
A series of sounds tore through the air.
Multiple psychic weapons, with lightning speed, aimed for his body's vital points.
Huang Xing's eyes flashed with contempt, and with a swift motion, he slashed with his blade, cutting through the psychic weapons, leaving them shattered on the ground.
"What?!"
The Mind Masters' faces paled in shock.
Among them were 9th and even 10th Rank Mind Masters; if the distance was sufficient, even a 10th Rank Force Samurai of the same level would have no choice but to await their demise.
Yet, this intruder had effortlessly sliced through their psychic weapons with a simple swing of his blade!
Was he a Force Samurai?
Or perhaps a Grandmaster?
Their hearts were filled with fear.
And also, pain.
Several million-dollar psychic weapons had been destroyed.
"Stop!"
"Don't move!"
In the corridor, a group of Force Samurai emerged, blocking Huang Xing's path.
"Friend, if you leave now, we can pretend nothing happened," the leader among them said.
He could tell that the person before him was no ordinary foe.
But loyalty to one's employer was a duty.
He couldn't just turn and run without showing his face, could he?
What if Gu Changkong asked him about it later? How would he explain?
Huang Xing's face turned cold, and without a word, he moved like he had teleported, appearing before the man in an instant. He swung his battle sword lightly.
Terror filled the man's eyes, and a strong sense of crisis arose within him.
In the next moment, he activated his Tier 3 Advanced Artifact.
But his body, along with the protective shield, was sliced in two.
Blood gushed out like a fountain.
"!!!"
Several people behind him watched this unfold, wide-eyed.
The quicker ones among them hurried to flee.
The slower ones were killed by Huang Xing.
"Hmph," he coldly watched the others escape.
If he wanted to catch up and kill them, it would be effortless.
But his purpose here today was to take Jiang Cheng, and by now, someone might have already informed Gu Changkong. He had to hurry.
Shaking off the blood from his sword, he rushed to the alchemy chamber where Jiang Cheng was, relying on his memory from the last time.
Meanwhile, his psychic energy continuously sensed the aura in the corridor and the alchemy chamber, as Jiang Cheng might have taken precautions and changed locations.
A First Rank Grandmaster's speed was at least 200 meters per second, so in the blink of an eye, he located Jiang Cheng.
"I've found you!"
Huang Xing's face twisted into a sinister smile.
It was the same alchemy chamber as last time.
