Chapter 1061 - 927: The Source of the Grudge
Based on the information gathered by Little Lake, Qu Jianlei guessed that Red Beard’s combat power was average and his defense capability was decent.
This person’s combat talent might not be very good, so he mainly handles communication affairs.
It just so happens that he is good at socializing, knows many High Tier Awakened, and can effectively increase his own influence.
If you lack combat power, then make up for it with connections. Isn’t that how society works?
This is the information Qu Jianlei gathered in bits and pieces, deducing such a possibility, but it might not be entirely accurate.
After all, information on the Supreme is too difficult to get.
In any case, he chose to do it this way. Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy ensures victory in every battle, but he didn’t have the time to inquire extensively.
Dozens of Axe Shadows chopped down, and Red Beard turned into a sky full of minced flesh!
His Rock Armor was relatively solid, at least withstanding four or five axes, basically counting as strong defense.
But once the Rock Armor collapsed, it could no longer support effective defense, and he was instantly torn apart by Qu Jianlei.
However, Qu Jianlei was still a bit surprised, "That’s it?"
He had confidence in his axe, but for a dignified Earth Attribute Supreme, his defense collapsed too quickly, right?
In just a moment, he reacted and nodded slightly towards Mu Yu.
It turned out that Mu Yu had simultaneously cast the "Turn Stone to Mud" technique on Red Beard.
Turn Stone to Mud is also a simple technique, but when applied to a person, it is basically useless—unless there’s a huge difference in cultivation level.
But the purpose of Mu Yu using this move was to affect Red Beard’s Rock Armor.
Generally speaking, at the same cultivation level, Turn Stone to Mud does not significantly impact Rock Armor, basically being useless.
At most, it can slightly influence the gathering of the Earth Element.
However, this was Mu Yu’s real intention—it didn’t need to have a significant effect, just to disrupt the opponent a bit.
She knew that Qu Jianlei was very strong in close combat, she had seen the axe before, so she added a finishing touch.
Unexpectedly, Red Beard’s micro-operation ability on the Earth Element was much worse than hers.
And Qu Jianlei’s Axe Technique was also extremely exquisite, causing Red Beard to explode instantly.
However, with a slight distraction, the pressure on Qian Cengxue’s side was momentarily reduced.
Whether Gravity Technique, Quicksand Technique, Earth Spike, or Rock Shield, they all require sustained Inner Breath output to control.
Once they loosened the output, being a veteran with extremely rich combat experience, Qian Cengxue seized the opportunity to escape.
However, seeing the flesh chunks flying from Red Beard, he shouted in fear, "No, what you’re doing is slaughter!"
Actually, what he shouted wasn’t important. What was important was, the opponent was so ferocious from the start, leaving no way out at all.
Qian Cengxue understood very well that against such opponents, saying anything was pointless, let alone thinking about begging for mercy.
It’s useless, to survive, self-help is necessary!
He hadn’t escaped yet, but the opponent had already freed up a Supreme, and their Axe Technique was extremely fierce and brutal.
In the situation of being attacked by both, he could imagine that he might quickly be defeated, so he shouted to remind the people outside.
——But actually, his shout was useless. With the fighting inside turning the world upside down, how could the people outside not know?
Qu Jianlei sensed the casting of Turn Stone to Mud by Mu Yu through Earth Element fluctuations.
But he just nodded slightly, had no time to speak, and in an Instant Flash, he moved next to Qian Cengxue.
At that moment, Qian Cengxue had just finished shouting that sentence, even if he wanted to beg for mercy, it was too late.
Qu Jianlei was not disturbed by the Quicksand Technique, again instantaneously sending out dozens of Axe Shadows.
Qian Cengxue’s defense was much stronger than Red Beard’s, with his Ice Armor shattering but still relying on the Ice Attribute’s affinity to withstand over a dozen hits.
In the end, he was only chopped into four pieces, though his body was covered in axe marks, which looked terrifying.
All of this sounds lengthy, but from when Mu Yu began casting Quicksand Technique until now, only a mere ten seconds have passed.
Combat between Supremes might seem slow when described, but it’s truly quick enough that there’s no time even to blink.
As people outside surged in, Mu Yu, wearing a Rock Armor, rushed out directly, casting a wide-range Gravity Technique.
Other techniques were not quite suitable to use, especially since there were quite a few A-levels outside.
Qu Jianlei didn’t delay either, swiftly collecting three Storage Talismans, wielding his axe to cut through a large hole in the wall, and Instant Flashed out.
At the same time, he didn’t forget to loudly shout, "The Kongse Clan seeks revenge, unrelated people don’t court death!"
This shout was aimed not at people in the yard but at those Supremes who had just left.
In the time it took to shout this sentence, he had already rushed five hundred meters, barging into Xian Ming’s room,
where two B-level guards were stationed outside, whom he easily dispatched with two axe strikes.
Upon rushing into the room, Xian Ming was still asleep, with an A-level of the Gold Attribute beside him.
The A-level had already clad their leader in Golden Armor, and upon seeing someone breaking in, roared, "Golden Arrow Skill!"
Having prepared in advance, dozens of bright points instantly appeared in the air and swiftly attacked!
This number was quite significant, covering the small space, possibly even with auto-tracking functionality.
But Qu Jianlei couldn’t care less, his body flickering like a phantom, unleashing another Spiritual Attack.
The A-level took the hit, grunted, and then plummeted towards the ground.
Before he hit the ground, Qu Jianlei was already there, swinging his axe, slicing the man in two from head to toe.
At this moment, Xian Ming also let out a groan, seemingly on the verge of waking up.
He was also a Gold Attribute Supreme, and nearing his peak, could easily handle Qian Cengxue alone.
In fact, he even carried a treasure to prevent spiritual attacks.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have the chance to use it and was knocked unconscious by a powerful spiritual attack.
He could never have imagined that mere moments after the Supremes left the banquet, someone would dare to attack!
Even if another ten to fifteen minutes had passed, his alertness wouldn’t have been so low.
Xian Ming’s spiritual power wasn’t low either, even considered strong among the Supremes.
As long as his spiritual power was slightly focused, the opponent wouldn’t have knocked him out so easily.
Unfortunately, the calculated outweighed the unforeseeable; he still fell.
Xian Ming didn’t take long to regain consciousness, even though still dazed, and shouted, "Are you challenging the Wan Hao?"
"What’s Wan Hao to you?" came a cold laugh in response, "Listen, we came for Lord Kong Se!"
The next moment, Xian Ming felt a shock on his forehead and completely lost consciousness.
Qu Jianlei sliced him in two with an axe and then took three seconds to clean the battlefield.
This time the haul wasn’t bad; Xian Ming had a storage bracelet with a space of over a hundred cubic meters.
In addition, there was also a storage talisman, which wasn’t a small bonus.
The A-level was even more surprising, carrying five storage talismans, clearly serving as a walking warehouse for Wan Hao.
When Qu Jianlei rushed out, Mu Yu was locked in battle with the opponent.
Her body technique wasn’t refined, but her combat methods were impressive. Clad in rock armor, she was like a charging tank.
Many attacks landed on her, including scattered gunfire, but she seemed unaffected.
However, Qu Jianlei sensed that her aura was unstable, clearly under too much pressure.
According to their prior agreement, after killing three Supremes, they could pull back, leaving the A-level and B-level lackeys.
Seeing Qu Jianlei emerge, Mu Yu relaxed: finally, no need to hold out!
Yet, Qu Jianlei’s spiritual power scanned around, and he decisively ordered, "Keep killing!"
Then kill! Mu Yu executed his command without hesitation.
Senior Chao Yun had mentioned that Red Rhodiola’s ability to change was strong and skillful at seizing opportunities.
Since he changed the plan, he must have had his reasons. Besides, Mu Yu was very sure that the boss never abandons his people easily.
As he spoke, Qu Jianlei flickered his body and raised his hand to cut down a Wood Attribute A-level.
Meanwhile, not far from the courtyard, several Supremes were staring dumbfounded ahead.
Their perception was strong; the moment the battle broke out in the yard, they sensed it.
Screeching alarms erupted everywhere, alerting even the most perceptually dull ones.
In this situation, leaving wasn’t appropriate; at the very least, it would be hard to explain to the City Guard.
And since Wan Hao was a mighty force from across the river, having no reaction at all could mean being resented later.
But hoping they’d charge in to assist was wishful thinking; none of them knew what was going on.
Even a regular person could deduce that whoever dared to directly attack Wan Hao’s base wasn’t anything short of a tough nut.
Especially since Wan Hao now had three Supremes gathered; if those who attacked didn’t find this out, weren’t they courting death?
So the question arises: knowing there are three Supremes, why do they dare to make such a bold move?
The Supremes were all of age and wouldn’t get excited over combat like the young, fearing they ate for nothing earlier.
They ordered their cars to turn back; one Supreme ordered not too fast to observe, while the other two told their drivers to speed up.
The latter two intended to befriend Wan Hao, also wanting to see if there were any collaboration opportunities.
After all, the mineral Wan Hao truly wanted to exploit was no secret among the Supremes.
Faced with a gold mine, who wouldn’t be tempted? Even having a small share meant money.
The reactions of these three Supremes were fairly normal, but the fourth one was exaggerated.
He directly exited his car, releasing a supreme aura, flew straight over, shouting, "Who dares..."
Halfway through, a shout came from the front, "Kong Se family seeking revenge, unrelated parties might not want to die!"
"Kong Se..." Upon hearing this, the Supreme halted in shock, a trace of terror appearing in his eyes.
He was a native of this planet and knew too well the grudge between Lord Kong Se and Wan Hao.
The gold mine Wan Hao was currently developing was seized from the Kong Se clan, resulting in the clan’s annihilation.
Strictly speaking, Lord Kong Se wasn’t a kind fellow, and mining wasn’t something a good person could do!
But the lord was also a local native and was decent to his compatriots, with quite a good reputation.
