Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Kill All Star Officers [Fourth Update]

"Not speaking?"

Yang Jian coldly laughed and immediately began accelerating, his figure swiftly approaching with a trail of afterimages, causing the five Star Officers to quickly scatter.

At a distance, Qin Jun sat cross-legged on the ground, continuing his research on the Wheel of Fate.

"Your Majesty, aren’t you worried?"

Qi Xie asked cautiously, as the five Grand Scatter Immortal Realm experts were, in his eyes, akin to divine beings.

With closed eyes, Qin Jun replied, "Worry about what? My Erlang Shen is very strong!"

Yang Jian was someone capable of arm-wrestling with Grand Mysterious Immortals; how could he possibly worry?

What he did wonder was whether the God Temple would send even stronger people after this battle.

If that were the case, it would actually be great.

According to the cliché, the villain would always send weaker monsters to give the protagonist experience, until the protagonist could kill them.

Of course, from the perspective of the villain, it’s indeed not worth it to personally deal with a weak protagonist.

For example, Qin Jun; there are countless weaklings in the Southern Domain who hate him, but he couldn’t possibly exterminate them all, right?

It’s often said that the bystander sees the game better than the players.

Cough, cough, getting off track!

Qin Jun cast aside his stray thoughts and continued observing the Wheel of Fate while questioning in his mind, "System, you really don’t have any clue about the Wheel of Fate?"

"The Wheel of Fate has a mysterious origin; the system is currently unable to analyze it," the system responded.

"Your system is really useless!"

"Did the host think the system chose you to play games with human lives?"

"..."

Qin Jun had no retort, and the system added another jab, "If the system fully understood this world, it wouldn’t need you as its host."

Pfft!

Do you have to be so hurtful?

Qin Jun suddenly lost the urge to help the system upgrade; the more perfect it got, the more it taunted him.

Meanwhile, Yang Jian and the five Star Officers were engaged in a fierce battle.

The five Star Officers besieged Yang Jian, but with his immense strength, not a single one could withstand a swipe of his War God’s Trident. Although they were knocked back, they rapidly advanced again, joining forces in hopes of catching Yang Jian off guard.

Regrettably, Yang Jian appeared utterly composed.

"You’re much weaker than the previous one. Really, who sent you? Did their brain get waterlogged?" Yang Jian taunted, with his last remark adopted from Qin Jun.

Upon hearing this, the great Star Officer inside the Heavenly Palace instantly turned pale with anger.

The other Star Officers felt amused, yet dared not show it.

It was the first time someone had dared to insult the great Star Officer like this.

In the face of Yang Jian’s verbal attacks, the five Star Officers became furious, and their efforts redoubled, yet they still failed to overpower him.

The gales stirred up by the battle whipped up the grass and debris in the plains, even the clothes of Qin Jun and the others fluttered loudly from afar.

"Looks like Yang Jian has it easy. Just how strong is this guy?" Jin Chanzi scratched his head and lamented. Thinking back to his encounters with Yang Jian, he couldn’t help feeling a bit scared.

Qin Jun shrugged with a smile. Yang Jian was after all the number one War God in heaven, not to mention the Jade Emperor, among the official members of heaven, he was definitely the strongest.

As for other hidden powers, they were only part-time affiliates and didn’t take the Heavenly Realm to heart. Not one showed willingness to intervene during the Havoc in Heaven caused by Sun Wukong.

As for the Jade Emperor, Qin Jun believed him to be outrageously strong. Otherwise, based on the myth wherein Yang Jian rescued his mother, and considering he still obeyed the Jade Emperor, there must be a reason related to the Jade Emperor’s own power; after all, Yang Jian is the foremost disciple of the third generation taught by a saint.

Having the Primordial Lord of Heaven as a backer and still serving the Jade Emperor indicates just how formidable the Jade Emperor’s influence is.

Of course, this might involve the Saint’s Teacher as well.

As Qin Jun wandered in his thoughts, Yang Jian’s momentum grew stronger. With one thrust of his spear, he smashed the Seventeenth Star Officer into the ground, violently shaking the entire plains.

He flipped his hand and directly flung the Eighteenth Star Officer, who had attacked from behind, sending him flying backward, spitting blood.

The Fourteenth, Fifteenth, and Sixteenth Star Officers looked on with chilling hearts, but they could only grit their teeth and charge forward.

Yang Jian suddenly turned, his third eye opening on his forehead. The glare from all three eyes caused the three Star Officers to hastily retreat.

"What is that..."

In the Heavenly God Palace, the Black Butterfly Fairy frowned as she asked, while the other Star Officers also wrinkled their brows.

Gazing at Yang Jian’s third eye, they all couldn’t help but feel intimidated, the great Star Officer included.

"It must be some kind of innate Divine Power," said the great Star Officer gravely. His words elicited a wave of gasps from the hall.

Divine Powers were rare to begin with, let alone innate ones.

Anyone with an innate Divine Power usually grew swiftly, and the heights they could achieve were beyond ordinary people’s imaginations.

"Could it be... just like ’that one’?" one Star Officer said nervously.

Even without naming names, the mere mention made the rest of the Star Officers’ complexions change.

On the other side, Yang Jian leaped up, spinning in the air, dodging a series of fiery blades, and like a phantom, landed atop the Fourteenth Star Officer’s head, his foot stomping down on the officer’s shoulder.

Crack!

The immense force instantly broke the Fourteenth Star Officer’s leg bones, and his body thudded onto the grass, causing the grass within hundreds of meters to suddenly sink into the ground.

"Trash!"

Yang Jian sneered as he bent down and stabbed his trident directly into the Fourteenth Star Officer’s chest.

The Fifteenth Star Officer’s eyes bloodshot, he shouted angrily, "Do you really want to be enemies with us Star Officers? If we die, stronger ones will come for you!"

Star Officers?

Yang Jian raised an eyebrow, his lips curving into a mocking smile, his handsome face displaying a playful grin.

"Ding! Side quest activated: ’Exterminate the Eighteen Star Officers!’ Details: Seventeen of the eighteen Star Officers overseeing the Heavenly Convention covet the Host’s Wheel of Fate and even wish to kill the Host. If the Host exterminates these seventeen Star Officers, he will gain one God and Demon summoning opportunity, and one random draw! Currently, eight of the Star Officers are already deceased!"

The system’s notification sound suddenly echoed in Qin Jun’s mind.

Seventeen Star Officers?

Damn!

Qin Jun cursed in his heart; these wretches coveted his Wheel of Fate and even wished to kill him. Absolutely unforgivable!

Without hesitation, he shouted out loud, "F*ck it! Yang Jian, kill him for me, then slaughter the rest of the Star Officers!"

Although he didn’t understand why one of the eighteen Star Officers didn’t want to kill him, he wasn’t inclined to think too much about it. Not everyone was bad; there’s always one kind-hearted soul who doesn’t wish him harm nor covets his Wheel of Fate, and Qin Jun intended to spare that one Star Officer.

As for the others...

They all had to die!

Qin Jun’s face turned frosty, leaving everyone around him utterly puzzled by his sudden explosive reaction.

If they knew someone had been spying on them, they would probably be furious too. The fact that the eighteen Star Officers were aware of his Wheel of Fate suggested they had been watching him intently since he entered.

Perverts!

"Alright!"

Yang Jian laughed heartily, his laughter laced with unrestrained joy, as he had been long irritated by those in the Heavenly Realm above!
