Chapter 433

~7 min read 1,252 words

The Chaos Triangle Zone, main district.

The Black Lion Guild headquarters building, a magnificent skyscraper.

Not long after the psychic seed on Lu Qi's body in the suburbs was triggered.

A middle-aged man in a long robe hurried into the chairman's office on the top floor of Daya.

He spoke in Burmese to the man seated behind the desk:

"Chairman, my backup plan has been activated."

The man behind the desk appeared to be in his forties, tall and broad.

He had a full beard, his skin dark and sallow, looking utterly formidable.

He was Ma La Nian, chairman of the Black Lion Guild, nicknamed Black Lion, a Peak Eighth-Rank Grand Master!

Due to harsh conditions and scarce resources, Burma had no Ninth-Rank psychics; Peak Eighth-Rank was the absolute limit.

The Black Lion Guild, founded by Ma La Nian, was likewise Burma's top force.

Within the Chaos Triangle Zone, it was a dominant power.

"Oh? Did the Lei Ting Wu Guan send someone? Who was it? Why didn't the Blood痕 Mercenaries handle them?"

Ma La Nian asked in a low voice.

The mere aura he casually released made the middle-aged man struggle to breathe; he hurriedly replied:

"Lu Qi was killed; the Blood痕 Mercenaries must have failed.

I learned their appearances through the psychic seed and found relevant information."

The middle-aged man activated the communication watch on his wrist, and instantly a holographic projection appeared in midair.

It displayed the faces of Xu Jingming and his four companions.

"Five people were dispatched from Lei Ting Wu Guan's headquarters: Xu Jingming, Lin Hui, Xia Lan, Li Xiang, and Du Wan.

They are all students from Lei Ting Wu Guan's Heavenly Prodigy Training Camp; the highest-ranked among them, Li Xiang, is only Low Sixth-Rank."

Burma's intelligence system wasn't highly advanced, but tracking individuals with some fame was still easy.

"Just sending students to investigate the destruction of our branch? Lei Ting Wu Guan remains as arrogantly dismissive as ever."

Ma La Nian shook his head, then frowned in confusion:

"But how could Blood痕 fail against a group of students with a maximum rank of Low Sixth-Rank?"

Even in Burma, they had heard of Lei Ting Wu Guan's Heavenly Prodigy Training Camp.

Yet its students shouldn't possess such monstrous combat power.

"I can't understand it either."

The robed man hesitated, "Lu Qi fell into a coma for a while; when he woke up, nearly all of Blood痕's people were dead.

The survivors had all been subdued.

Also, among them, Li Xiang—the highest-ranked—wasn't the leader; Xu Jingming was.

By the way, this Xu Jingming is the SS-Rank psychic awakened from Daya; his current rank is now Low Fifth-Rank."

"What?! Is it him?" Ma La Nian's pupils shrank.

Xu Jingming!

The only SS-Rank psychic awakened in Daya's younger generation!

This prodigy must not be harmed in the slightest.

After all, the precedent of Sakura Nation is right there—Tianyu Daochang didn't even inflict real damage before Daya's Ninth-Rank Martial Saint destroyed one of its branches and slaughtered tens of thousands of civilians!

Sakura Nation dared not react at all, becoming a global laughingstock!

And compared to Tianyu Daochang, the Black Lion Guild is far weaker.

If Xu Jingming suffers even a scratch here, our entire Black Lion Guild will be annihilated with him!

"Good thing no major mistake was made."

Ma La Nian exhaled slowly, his expression darkening as he scolded:

"I've told you repeatedly not to touch Lei Ting Wu Guan—and you ignored me!

Now look, their headquarters has sent people—and we can't touch them!"

The robed man listened, silently fuming inside.

Who could have guessed they'd send out the SS-Rank psychic awakened as a divine presence?

"Forget it. Since we can't handle them, don't provoke them further.

Good thing you acted fast and eliminated all Lei Ting Wu Guan personnel.

Xu Jingming's group, lacking any leads, will have no choice but to return empty-handed.

Also, contact Vice-Chairman Miao; have his people—including you—lay low for now.

Don't touch the supplies seized from Lei Ting Wu Guan either; wait until the storm passes."

Ma La Nian ordered, deep in thought.

"Yes!" The robed man nodded and left respectfully.

On the other side,

Aside from revealing the Black Lion Guild as the key clue, no further information was extracted from Lu Qi.

In the end, Xu Jingming erased his final soul with a Dou Tian Shen Lei.

The bloody flesh on the ground was likewise obliterated, achieving true bone-crushing, ash-scattering annihilation!

Nearby, the four Blood痕 Mercenaries who witnessed the entire process struggled to swallow.

First, they used a psychic-type psychic to control consciousness and extract intelligence.

First, use a psychic ability user to manipulate consciousness and obtain intelligence.

Even after death, he could summon their souls and interrogate them again.

Such terrifying methods were something even they, who were used to killing, had never witnessed.

"My lords, we admit defeat on this mission, but we're only hired mercenaries.

You've already killed so many of our brothers — surely that should be enough to quench your anger.

We only beg... only beg that you spare the few of us..."

Inside the Thunder Prison, the fury in the burly man's eyes had vanished.

What replaced it was a desperate yearning for life!

Compared to his own life, what did those dead brothers count for?

In a place like the Chaotic Triangle Domain, as long as he was still alive, he could quickly pull together another squad!

Thinking of this, the burly man lowered his head even further:

"Including the half payment advanced for this mission, my bank account holds a total of 500 billion kyat.

This is an anonymous bank card that requires no password — please, spare us."

Saying so, the burly man took a bank card out of his spatial ring and respectfully held it out toward Xu Jingming.

Because he knew that, of the entire squad, only Xu Jingming could decide their life or death.

"A bank card worth 500 billion? Very well, then I'll take it."

The golden Thunder Prison dissipated, and Xu Jingming walked over with steady steps to collect the bank card.

However, before the burly man could even feel glad, he saw the other's spatial ring flash faintly.

A dark-gold long spear suddenly materialized in his hand, and in the next instant, it thrust forward like a bolt of lightning!

"You tricked me?!" The burly man's face filled with horror, and he instinctively tried to dodge.

But after taking three bolts of Heavenly Thunder, where would he find the strength to evade?

In the end, he was still headshot by Xu Jingming's spear!

"I never said I'd spare you just because I took the money." Xu Jingming replied expressionlessly.

Seeing the burly man die, the remaining three mid-tier sixth-rank ability users also changed color drastically and were about to activate their abilities.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Flowing Cloud Golden Peak Spear wreathed in golden thunder thrust out in rapid succession like an illusion, and with the greatest of ease headshot and killed the three heavily wounded men.

At this point, including Lu Qi, everyone who had tried to attack them had been completely annihilated by Xu Jingming!

And from the start of the fight to the killing of all four, the entire process had taken less than two seconds.

Such ruthless methods left Xia Lan and the others behind faintly surprised.

Headshot after headshot — why did Xu Jingming's actions feel a little bloody?
