Chapter 231: Who Lives and Who Dies, One Battle Will Tell

~8 min read 1,579 words

At this moment, the factory was filled with layers of ambushes.

Lu Wenhui and the others, who held True Qi Weapons, as well as Wen Meng, who was at the Innate Grandmaster realm.

Such a lineup, let alone an individual, could easily wipe out an ordinary Martial Dao family.

However, Chen Che's expression was calm, showing not the slightest panic; his gaze swept over Lu Wenhui and the others, finally landing on Wen Meng.

Wen Meng was walking slowly toward this side, True Qi swirling around him, his momentum climbing step by step.

Seeing this scene, Bai Xiangjin turned and returned to the monitoring room; under the threat of the gun muzzle, Jiang Lan had no choice but to follow him inside.

"It will take them a while to finish, so we will just watch from here."

Bai Xiangjin glanced at the nervous Jiang Lan and smiled playfully: "Don't worry, before Chen Che dies, I won't do anything to you. But since we are watching a movie, we should have popcorn; we can't be too bored."

Bai Xiangjin propped one leg on the control console, raised his pistol, and ordered: "Come here and rub my leg."

Jiang Lan stood where she was, motionless, looking at Bai Xiangjin with icy eyes.

Bai Xiangjin toyed with the pistol and smiled mockingly: "Or should I order someone to give your younger brother and daughter some special care?"

Jiang Lan's body trembled; she gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, walked over, placed her hands on Bai Xiangjin's leg, and began to massage perfunctorily.

A triumphant smile curled the corners of Bai Xiangjin's lips as he turned his head to look at the screen.

Inside the factory.

Wen Meng walked slowly toward Chen Che, rolling up his sleeves as he went: "Chen Che, I heard you have a Secret Technique that allows you to kill Grandmasters. Since that is the case, show it quickly; I really want to see how much you are worth!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Meng suddenly erupted and shot toward Chen Che.

Chen Che let out a cold shout, took a side step, and an Array Diagram appeared on the ground.

Wen Meng rushed into the range of the Array Diagram, his speed visibly slowing down; at this moment, Chen Che took a step forward and arrived directly in front of Wen Meng.

Wen Meng's eyes widened abruptly, and he immediately raised his hands to block; however, his blocking speed was also very slow, while Chen Che's speed was not affected in the slightest.

A Ghost Gate Needle was clamped between his fingers, and his fist struck Wen Meng's chest, the Ghost Gate Needle piercing all the way in.

"Boom!"

With a muffled, explosive sound, Wen Meng flew backward, flipped several times in the air, and only then managed to steady his figure and land back on the ground.

"Cough, cough... Pfft!"

Wen Meng spat out a mouthful of blood and used his True Qi to force the Ghost Gate Needle out of his chest.

"This is the Strange Gate Dunjia!"

Wen Meng looked up at Chen Che, his gaze wandering over the Array Diagram, his face filled with disbelief, "This is impossible! This is the method of an Artisan; you are young, and your realm is at most Master Great Perfection, how could you possibly know the methods of an Artisan?! This is impossible! Impossible!"

Staring at that profound Array Diagram, Wen Meng was greatly shocked; he could not believe or accept that Chen Che, at such a young age, could use Artisan Techniques!

This talent could no longer be explained by objective common sense!

Lu Wenhui and the others were also dumbfounded at the sight; in their expectations, Chen Che would have been dead or crippled by Wen Meng's previous strike, and Bai Xiangjin having them guard with True Qi Weapons was completely unnecessary.

But the current situation exceeded their expectations; not only was Chen Che fine, but Wen Meng looked to be quite heavily injured.

This kid was too eerie!

Thinking of this, whether it was fear or the anger brought on by hatred, Lu Wenhui was the first to pull the trigger, and the others followed suit.

"Fire at him, kill him!"

Lu Wenhui roared, and the gun muzzles spat out ferocious flames.

A dense barrage of bullets shot toward Chen Che and Shen Qi; Shen Qi immediately invoked his True Qi to form a Protective Shield.

Chen Che took a deep breath, held his two fingers upright in front of his chest, and shouted: "Gather!"

Chen Che's hands danced, strands of True Qi intercepting the incoming True Qi Bullets, wrapping around them and gathering them above his head.

At the same time, thirteen Ghost Gate Needles flew into the rotating, condensing mass of True Qi, connecting head to tail and floating in the True Qi mass like a twisting snake.

Wen Meng's gaze fixed; he saw that Chen Che was gathering power, snorted coldly, and shouted angrily: "I refuse to believe you know Artisan Techniques!"

True Qi climbed around his body and gathered above his head.

Wen Meng loosened his hand from the blood hole left by the Ghost Gate Needle; inside the blood hole, a wisp of True Qi rippled faintly, restricting the circulation of True Qi in one of his body's meridians.

"So what if you know Artisan Techniques? I am an Innate Grandmaster! The gap in our realms dictates that you will undoubtedly die!"

Wen Meng roared, his hands dancing, and True Qi gathered above his head, gradually evolving into the shape of a ferocious beast.

"Who lives and who dies, one battle will tell!"

Chen Che let out a great roar, his True Qi finished gathering, and a True Qi Python appeared in the air, looking up to the sky and roaring before striking swiftly toward Wen Meng!

Wen Meng snorted coldly, and the ferocious beast above his head also took shape at this moment, baring its fangs at the True Qi Python and pouncing forward with a roar.

"BOOM!!!"

The moment the two True Qi beasts collided, an explosion swept through the entire factory; the factory roof was blown straight off, and Lu Wenhui and the others were smashed to pieces by the shockwave, not even leaving a scrap behind.

The second-floor monitoring room was also affected; the glass shattered, chairs toppled, tables flipped, and the walls deformed.

Bai Xiangjin and Jiang Lan both fell to the ground, curled up in a wretched state, whimpering in pain.

"What is the situation now?! Tell me quickly! What is the situation!"

Bai Xiangjin lay on the ground, clutching the walkie-talkie and asking about the situation over and over again.

The scene on the monitor before it turned to static was too shocking; the full power of a Grandmaster Martial Artist was something ordinary people could not comprehend.

Bai Xiangjin had not expected that Chen Che would actually display the same moves as Wen Meng; Chen Che's true Martial Dao Realm was self-evident.

In this way, the outcome became uncertain. So he did not dare to open the door to check the situation, but instead, harboring a sliver of luck, he shouted into the walkie-talkie.

However, there was not a sound in the walkie-talkie, while outside the door, the aftermath of the attack was still whistling.

Jiang Lan endured the pain and climbed up at this moment; just as she wanted to pick up the pistol that had fallen to the ground, Bai Xiangjin grabbed it first.

Jiang Lan did not hesitate in the slightest, decisively abandoned the pistol, and smashed through the door to escape.

Bai Xiangjin was furious and ashamed; he touched the medicinal pill in his pocket given by Vermilion Bird, gritted his teeth, and rushed out.

The factory was in a mess; Chen Che restrained his momentum and walked slowly to Wen Meng's side.

Wen Meng lay on the ground, his body twitching uncontrollably, as blood gushed out in spurts from his mouth, nose, ears, and eyes.

Wen Meng looked at Chen Che with a face full of shock and disbelief, unable to fathom why he had lost, nor why Chen Che possessed such strength at such a young age.

"You... you... how did you..."

He used all his remaining strength to grab Chen Che's ankle, as if he would not be able to die in peace without getting an answer.

However, Chen Che seemed determined to make him die with regrets; he stepped onto the bloody hole in Wen Meng's chest, and the True Qi remaining inside immediately activated, instantly blasting his already agonizing internal organs into powder.

"Chen Che! Chen Che!"

At this moment, Jiang Lan's shouts reached him.

Chen Che looked up and happened to spot Jiang Lan escaping from the second-floor surveillance room.

Bai Xiangjin chased out right behind her, raising his pistol to aim at Jiang Lan, but because his footing was unstable, he had been unable to pull the trigger.

Chen Che's expression froze, and he shouted, "Jump!"

Jiang Lan found the source of the voice almost immediately, and the moment she saw Chen Che, she leaped without the slightest hesitation.

At the same time, Chen Che spread his arms and jumped into mid-air, wrapping his arms around Jiang Lan's waist to catch her steadily.

"Bang... bang bang bang!!!"

Bai Xiangjin also pulled the trigger recklessly at this moment, firing several bullets in succession toward the two of them.
