Chapter 1421 How About You Cut Him a Little?
Lin Qiye, Baili Pangpang, Cao Yuan, An Qingyu, and Jiang Er’s five silhouettes simultaneously rushed toward the falling Li Qingqiang!
Lin Qiye knew clearly in his heart that although he and An Qingyu had already stepped halfway through the threshold of humanity’s ceiling, they were still far too different compared to the true ceiling.
Moreover, Li Qingqiang came from a special squad, had extremely rich combat experience, and had the backing of enormous national fortune power. Defeating him was almost impossible. The only way was to catch him off guard and break through his blockade.
At this moment, Lin Qiye’s mind flashed through all the abilities he possessed, constantly refining tactics, trying to create a possibility.
As Li Qingqiang drew closer, Lin Qiye could feel the pressure coming head-on. He gritted his teeth and used [Zhan Bai] to draw a lightning-fast slash, attempting to divert Li Qingqiang’s attention.
A snow-white blade light cut through the void, slashing straight toward Li Qingqiang’s body!
Then,
A splash of blood bloomed in the sky!
The blade light easily cut into Li Qingqiang’s body, slashing a bloody opening in his floral shirt. The imposing Li Qingqiang groaned, staring at Lin Qiye in disbelief before plummeting toward the churning sea below!
The human ceiling-level aura abruptly ceased.
Lin Qiye stood frozen in place, holding [Zhan Bai] in his hand.
This…
He hadn’t even figured out how to escape from Li Qingqiang’s grasp… he just casually struck with his blade, how did Li Qingqiang end up clutching his wound and falling?
And he was using [Zhan Bai], not the Ama-no-Murakumo sword. Even the latter shouldn’t have such power, right?
Watching Li Qingqiang’s figure gradually disappear into the sea, Lin Qiye seemed to realize something, and his expression immediately became complicated.
“Seven… what happened to Brother Qiang?” Cao Yuan murmured.
Lin Qiye nodded slightly.
This simple slash raised the [Night Curtain] team’s admiration for Li Qingqiang to unprecedented heights.
“Old Li… he’s something else,” Wang Qing, seeing this scene, couldn’t help covering her mouth and laughing softly. She immediately leaped downward through the air, her hand grabbing at the void, and a long whip appeared in her palm!
Crack——!!
The whip tore through the sky, a white lightning bolt nearly grazing Lin Qiye and the others’ noses, instantly splitting the sea surface into a hideous crack hundreds of meters long!
The terrifying energy contained in this whip made Lin Qiye and the others pale. They had no doubt that if this whip had landed on them, it would have easily taken off half their bodies.
Wang Qing gripped the whip and raised her arm, poised to strike a second time. But before Lin Qiye could act, her shoulder suddenly burst with a splash of blood!
She let out a surprised cry and plummeted toward the sea below…
Even as she passed by Lin Qiye and the others, she winked at them, her eyes full of mirth.
Before everyone could recover, Tang Yusheng, wielding his halberd, was already diving rapidly from the sky with massive waves in tow!
The wild wind whipped his black hair, his white robe fluttering in the breeze, his expression as calm as ever, showing no emotion.
As his figure continued to fall, he slowly raised the halberd in his hand, slashing toward Lin Qiye’s head… but strangely, his movements were very slow, his falling speed even slower than free fall.
Seeing this bizarre scene, Baili Pangpang hesitated for a moment:
“Seven… why don’t you give him a little slash?”
Lin Qiye was stunned, using the back of his [Zhan Bai] blade to strike upward. A flash of light broke through space, landing lightly on Tang Yusheng’s chest, not even tearing a hole in his shirt.
But even so, Tang Yusheng’s body suddenly shook, as if struck by a giant hammer, and with the massive waves behind him, he fell straight toward the direction of the island.
Lin Qiye: …
“Little Tang’s acting is still a bit stiff…”
In the churning seawater, Wang Qing secretly saw Tang Yusheng being knocked away and couldn’t help clicking her tongue.
“Say less, we should be severely injured and unconscious by now,” Li Qingqiang pointed at the bloody opening on his body, reminding her.
“…” Wang Qing rolled her eyes. “Aren’t we being too obvious doing this?”
“That’s not important, we’re just going through the motions. Even if the Heavenly Venerable questions us, doesn’t the Marquis have our backs?”
“The Marquis?”
“Can’t you tell?” Li Qingqiang clicked his tongue. “If it weren’t for the Marquis’s intervention, how could that plane just happen to fly to this island? His eyes have been watching the entire island. If he hadn’t deliberately exposed a weakness, how could those kids’ signal penetrate our Great Xia’s national fortune and connect to Zuo Qing’s phone?”
“You mean, this is all the Marquis secretly helping?” Wang Qing suddenly realized. “Isn’t he afraid the Heavenly Venerable will find out?”
“Do you think that Heavenly Venerable wouldn’t have thought of this?” Li Qingqiang tapped Wang Qing’s head. “The Marquis’s connection with Lin Qiye is well known to the Heavenly Venerable. Even so, he still sent them here. Doesn’t he know the Marquis would favor Lin Qiye?
The Heavenly Venerable never intended to absolutely restrain [Night Curtain]. Otherwise, he could have simply locked them in the Heavenly Palace, couldn’t he?
He merely wants to use the Marquis to let the [Night Curtain] team make their own choice.
What needed to be said, we’ve already said. The consequences that needed to be explained, we’ve explained clearly. If at this point they still want to leave… then whatever consequences follow, they’ll bear them themselves.
Don’t forget, among them, there is still a Heavenly Venerable who remains in the cycle of reincarnation.”
“No wonder…” Wang Qing couldn’t help asking, “How strange, how do you all see so much from all these messy details?”
“If all the Commander-in-Chiefs throughout history were as straightforward as you, the Night Watchers would have perished long ago,” Li Qingqiang said leisurely. “But not everyone has figured it out. You definitely couldn’t see it. As for Yusheng, though he’s quiet, he’s not stupid, so he probably caught on. As for Old Nie…”
“Old Nie…” Wang Qing thought for a moment, her expression gradually becoming strange. “He seems to hate all these twists and turns the most… can that rigid old fossil really see through it?”
In the seawater, Li Qingqiang’s expression suddenly became interesting.
“Oh no…”
Above the sea surface!
Lin Qiye and the others rode the somersault cloud, rapidly ascending along the vertical wall of seawater, the top of the wall rapidly expanding in their vision!
“The Commanders are indeed soft-hearted,” Cao Yuan said, feeling touched as he watched the three spectral figures fall into the water one after another.
“Yes…”
“Hey, Commander Nie is here too.”
As they spoke, the straight figure standing at the top of the seawater wall gripped the black staff in his hand expressionlessly and leaped down from the high altitude!
The next moment, a thick staff shadow smashed down toward everyone’s heads!
