Chapter 1381 “Moon Locust Tree”
On the banks of the Huangpu River.
The members of Squad 007 had already dispersed all civilians from the riverside. They gazed at the figures in the river who were fiercely battling the Ancient God Church, their mouths slightly agape…
“Who exactly are these people? They’re too powerful!”
“Almost all of them are ‘Klein’ level… When did Great Xia produce such a group of powerful fighters?”
“Could they be that… special squad Commander Nie mentioned recently?”
“You mean [Black Dragon]? But even [Black Dragon] couldn’t be this strong! Wasn’t only their captain Li Kengqiang supposed to be at ‘Klein’ level?”
“Where did they suddenly come from…”
“Whatever the case, it’s good they’re on our side, otherwise Huaihai would really be in trouble this time.”
“…”
As the members of Squad 007 exchanged comments, suddenly someone seemed to realize something and looked around in confusion:
“Where did Li Yue go?”
“Don’t know, he was just here… Found him, what’s he doing by the river?”
Everyone turned to look and saw a figure in a brown Zhongshan suit standing quietly on the deserted banks of the Huangpu River, gazing at the churning water below, letting out a long sigh…
“Li Yue.”
A Squad 007 member called out, stepping forward from behind, “What are you do—”
Before he could finish, the figure by the river slightly turned his head and glanced at him. A hazy black shadow flashed through nothingness, and the next moment, a head was floating lightly in the air… Splashing blood spattered onto the brown Zhongshan suit, yet passed through as if touching nothing.
In the squad member’s shocked eyes, the world tumbled and spun, with only those deep eyes like dried-up wells deeply imprinted on his retina.
“Li… Li Yue?!”
The nearby Squad 007 members, having witnessed their comrade’s beheading, stood stunned for several seconds before coming to their senses!
“Li Yue?! That’s not Li Yue!!!” the large man shouted, surging killing intent rolling out from within him. With a clang, he drew his straight blade and slashed at the figure by the river!
The remaining two Squad 007 members also immediately drew their blades and followed in the attack.
The figure by the river didn’t even glance at them, simply taking three glass vials containing light red liquid from his pocket and gently tossing them toward the ice-flecked river surface.
Roar——!!
An octopus-like sea beast suddenly emerged from the river water, its suction-cupped tentacles lightning-fast grabbing for the three glass vials, yet passing through them as if they were nothing, unable to touch them at all.
In the distance, Lin Qiye, who had just killed a member of the Ancient God Church, seemed to sense something and suddenly turned his head toward this direction!
“This is bad!!”
Lin Qiye’s form transformed into night color, instantly flickering and disappearing… but it was already too late.
This figure who had thrown the glass vials had used a Squad 007 member’s identity to openly approach the Huangpu riverbank without arousing any suspicion, and then the three glass vials he tossed had directly bypassed the sea beast guarding the river bottom, eerily passing through it… With two consecutive security measures broken, even Lin Qiye couldn’t save the situation in time.
The three glass vials fell into the churning river water. The glass containing the light red liquid suddenly seemed to dematerialize, and the liquid in the vials directly merged with the churning river water, instantly dyeing this section of the river red!
Meanwhile, the remaining three Squad 007 members had reached the back of the figure by the river!
Their straight blades, gleaming with black light, cut through the air with a piercing buzz, slashing toward his neck, followed by several high-speed spinning bullets!
The figure by the river seemed completely unaware, merely lowering his head and unhurriedly taking out a pack of “Daqianmen” cigarettes, flicking one out and placing it between his lips…
The flashing blade touched the skin of his neck but eerily passed through. The large man holding the blade felt his hand lighten as the blade handle passed through his palm and fell away… as if the blade was merely an extremely realistic holographic projection, a false illusion that didn’t exist in this world.
Several bullets passed through the figure’s head without causing any damage. Only one bullet grazed the “Daqianmen” cigarette in the corner of his mouth, the friction instantly lighting the cigarette!
The figure took a deep drag, slowly exhaling the hazy smoke…
Bang bang bang——!!
Three blood mists exploded behind him. The three Squad 007 members simultaneously had terrifying wounds split open on their chests. Just as these wounds were about to expand further, a shade of night suddenly descended, swallowing their forms within it.
“Hmm?” The figure raised his eyebrows slightly at this.
Lin Qiye stepped out from the night color. He glanced at the river water beneath his feet that had already been dyed blood-red, and at the three critically injured Squad 007 members behind him. Rage blazed in his eyes!
“Who are you?!!” Lin Qiye asked grimly.
The figure, holding the burning cigarette with one hand, took another drag and spoke calmly as he exhaled the smoke:
“You can call me [Yuehuai].”
“[Yuehuai]?” Lin Qiye frowned, feeling the name was somewhat familiar.
“Those you just killed were all subordinates I painstakingly gathered from various parts of Great Xia.” Yuehuai lightly flicked away some ash, his eyes narrowing slightly, his tone somewhat cold,
“The others don’t matter much, but that Chen Erniu had great potential. Do you know how much effort I put into grooming him to be my right-hand man?
I worked so hard to establish the Ancient God Church, and you’ve destroyed most of it… Tell me, how should I repay you?”
Hearing this, Lin Qiye finally remembered who this man was.
[Yuehuai], the chairman of the Ancient God Church, the leader of the three most ancient evil gods, and also the earliest evil god proxy active within Great Xia’s borders… Even in later times when many human powerhouses emerged and special squads gathered, when [Believers] were extinct and Whispers died, with the Ancient God Church on the brink of destruction, this most ancient evil god still hadn’t been captured.
“Damn it…”
Lin Qiye roared, “Qingyu! Find a way to deal with this contaminated river water!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qiye’s form flickered, charging like lightning toward Yuehuai on the shore!
He gripped [Zhan Bai] in his hand, and with a low hum, a snow-white blade light tore through the void, ignoring space to slash directly at Yuehuai’s chest!
But this blade light, like the straight blade and bullets before it, passed directly through Yuehuai’s form, unable to cause him any harm. Lin Qiye felt his hand empty as [Zhan Bai] flew from his grasp.
What kind of strange divine domain was this?
Before Lin Qiye could understand how [Zhan Bai] had slipped from his hand, a dark light tore through the air, flashing like lightning toward his brow!
In this critical moment, Lin Qiye activated [Night Color Flash] again, his form vanishing from the spot.
