Chapter 152 - 152 50 I have never considered these questions_2

152: Chapter 50 I have never considered these questions_2 152: Chapter 50 I have never considered these questions_2 This young man spoke in a stern, measured tone, completely different from how he sounded when he was at work.

“Yiji Hall’s An Yushi, Li Jun, has met Mr.

Ming Guest.

Director Liu has a heavy responsibility and cannot come in person, so he asked me to convey his greetings and hopes for your understanding.”

“Hmm, government work keeps you that busy after becoming an official, eh?”

Li Jun saw the man preparing to draw his sword and hurriedly added, “The awakening of the Dragon Species is a matter of great importance, Mr.

Ming Guest should reconsider.”

“What is there to reconsider?” Ming Guest asked with interest.

Li Jun felt incredibly nervous inside, but he didn’t dare show even a hint of fear on his face.

“In the Sky City, out of five million Dragon Species, even if only one in ten awakens, that’s 500,000 giant dragons impervious to blades and spears.

Not to mention how many towns will be reduced to ashes, how many families will be torn apart, just the massive scale of reality erosion that will occur when they manifest will shatter the material world.

Among them, the highest danger Dragon Species in the city stand a great chance at calling forth the monarchs of a realm.

Like the ruler of Spirit Prison Realm or the one from Kong Hua Realm, the appearance of either one would spell disaster for a nation!”

“I am aware, Mr.

Ming Guest, that with your formidable skills, ordinary giant dragons are not a match for you, and even when facing a monarch, you still possess the strength to fight.

However, when ants swarm, they can consume an elephant.

Should 5.7 million giant dragons truly descend, I fear even you might not be able to slay them all alone…”

Li Jun bowed deeply, then repeated, “I implore you to reconsider once more, Mr.

Ming Guest.”

The man in green clothes was neither hurried nor annoyed nor angry.

He couldn’t help but laugh.

“These are your own thoughts, right?

Liu Zhongwu wouldn’t say these things; he understands my nature…

I never consider so much.”

Amidst everyone’s astonished expressions, Ming Guest casually gripped the hilt of his sword.

“If a powerful dragon comes down, I’ll get to enjoy a good fight.

If many come, I’ll enjoy many fights.

To see different interesting dragons, to enjoy numerous battles—that sounds great, doesn’t it!”

Li Jun looked at the man who took everything so easily and was at a loss for words.

He noticed the difference between this person and ordinary people.

Not simply personality, thinking, or logic…

His very existence was different from humans.

Human conceptions of good and evil, their morality, their common sense—all these human-created things and notions didn’t exist for this man.

Unrestrained, doing as he wished, he was a true freethinker, acting solely according to his own desires.

Li Jun straightened up, attempting one last effort, “You may very well be used by others.”

“I don’t care.”

With that, his final effort failed.

Li Jun took a step back, ready to follow the sequence they had agreed upon on the road, allowing the heavily armored knight to take the lead—

However, before he could issue the challenge, Ming Guest had already drawn his sword.

“Ming Blade, Ming Guest.”

He raised the dimly glowing blade and declared cheerily,

“Taking on each one individually would take too much time.

All of you come at once.”

Qin Qianbai was running through the city.

The words of the Ranger with the buzz cut who had been defeated echoed in her mind.

“Remarkable, truly deserving of the Qin family of the imperial city…

Probably only an A-ranked Ranger would have a chance against you.

I’m impressed, truly impressed!

I only understand now, having fought you personally, that it was all calculated by you.”

“—??”

“Don’t pretend now; we’ve already lost.

To seize the crucial item from the boss first, making him change his mind to agree to the transaction, and then to take the opportunity to eliminate us all in one go, wasn’t that all part of your plan?”

“—I don’t understand.”

“No, come on, you don’t need to keep up the act at this point?

That man in green clothes with the double swords, isn’t he…”

“—…Who?”

Dressed in green, wielding double swords—this description immediately made her think of one person.

That person was harmless most of the time, but should there be a chance…

She had to confirm it.

So after ensuring the safety of her friends, Qin Qianbai began searching for that cyan shadow in the city.

Mr.

Shiyu informed her of the situation through telepathy, and there seemed to be no problem on either side.

She forced herself to calm down, and just as she was about to regroup with her friends…

A teal train appeared above the central district.

The moment she saw that scene, Qin Qianbai made her judgment.

Only that capricious man would perform such an ostentatious yet childish act.

She burst into the ruins of the convenience store, apologized to the absent owner, and took a large surviving bottle of water.

The girl created invisible steps with her power, stepped onto the air, and leaped upwards.

She unscrewed the cap, allowing the liquid to flow down with gravity, and with a flick of her wrist, she shaped the solidifying water stream while simultaneously reinforcing it with her power.

In less than a breath’s time, the transparent flowing water had turned into a jet-black long sword.

She solidified the gas with her power, then enhanced its elasticity with her power again, turning it into an excellent springboard.

Her speed even surpassed that of Superpower Users flying at full speed, approaching the airborne train with her body alone.

Silently, Qin Qianbai leaped onto the top of the vehicle.

Sensing the intrusion, the carriage churned instantly, turning the spot where she landed into a muddy swamp, and the side panels gathered into spikes intending to expel the unwelcome visitor!

“Phew…

”

She recalled the words of a certain gray-haired youth in her mind.

Miss, do you remember when you first came to the City of Azure Sky?

Yeah, that time you caused a huge mess around you.

That state was the precursor to a rampage, but it could also be used as a method to expand the range of your power.

Of course, the premise is having superb control and long-term practice like Mr.

Gongsun here.

If you’re interested, you can—

Planning to practice?

Now?

You being so proactive actually scares me.

This actually isn’t difficult, the key is in the mindset…

The key lies in deviating from your usual state of mind, which is an adjustment of your condition.

For her, who had practiced martial arts since childhood and emphasized a stable mental state, this was a little more difficult than she imagined…

Fortunately, she had mastered this technique through long-term training.

She kept recalling unpleasant, or annoying memories in her mind, adjusting her mood with a suggestive technique, allowing her “state” to deviate from stability.

For a time, she relaxed her suppression of her Superpower.

Thus, the range her power could control expanded at that moment, and the material that made up the train—be it soft, solid, or expanding—became as wildly distorted as if it had fallen into the Demon Realm.

The automatic defense mechanisms, in just an instant, disintegrated under her interference.

Qin Qianbai ignored the chaotic scene beside her and headed to the front of the train as quickly as possible.

As she passed through the second car, the train’s defensive mechanisms ceased on their own.

She reined in her ability and stepped onto the very front of the train, feeling a sticky sensation under her feet, her soles bringing up a crimson liquid.

It was blood, oozing from human bodies.

Suits-wearing agents, heavily armored Knights, and An Yushi garbed in powerful suits…

At the top of the train were nine bodies lying prostrate, their condition unknown, and the last person stood facing away from her at the front, a long sword pierced through their torso.

Li Jun’s hands were covered in fresh blood.

He gripped the talisman paper tightly, trying for one last struggle, but ultimately succumbed to his battered body and fainted.

The long sword was pulled out, leaving only a soft sound.

The figure fell, revealing the true identity of the swordsman.

For a moment, Qin Qianbai almost thought she had returned to the past.

He looked no different from how he was back then.

The years had not left a single trace on the man’s face, as if even time itself had been slain by his blade’s edge.

It was only that back then, his clothes had been soaked with blood, while today his green robe bore not a hint of bloodstain.

“…Qin Ming.”

Blood dripped from the sword, and the Ming Guest looked up in surprise.

His gaze held astonishment and amazement, as well as the unique caring and consideration of an elder.

He resembled a traveler far from home unexpectedly encountering a younger family member, surprised by chance and genuinely pleased with the junior’s growth.

“You’ve grown up so much, Qin Qianbai.”

He flicked the blood from his sword, speaking in a cheerier tone than before.

“—Let’s fight.”
