Creepiness.

From the day the Water Ghosts were completely wiped out, Xinquan's full-scale actions began.

This is revenge, sheer revenge. Anyone who once harbored ill intentions towards Xinquan, wanted to attack them when they were down, or was waiting to share in the spoils—all were ground into dust by Ji Jue in order of a list!

Even those not on the list got kicked twice, hit with a couple of heavy punches, and spat on before leaving!

Why do you have to look so annoying?

Don't think I don't know what shady deals you're doing in secret. All of you better keep your tails between your legs, don't let me catch any traces!

And so, under the banner of eradicating evil for the people, with the list and ironclad evidence supplied by the Water Ghosts, the coast's combat forces and Slan's Returning Knights swept through all of Hai Province from east to west and from south to north like a plow, uncovering countless bones and bloodstains.

This time, even the backers and financiers appeared to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Not daring to utter a word.

Letting Ji Jue run rampant.

Or else what?

Or else who do you see sitting by his sides?

Left side, Security Bureau; right side, Desert Market; behind him sits the current Hai Province Town keeper, Lv Yingyue…

We're all here to make money, not to die, so what's the point?

As for the bounties from the grudgers and the assassination attempts from the escapees, it's a joke. The reward Shang Tongwen posted before his death is still shining bright on Ji Jue's forehead. Who do you see claiming it?

Do you think I care?

Ji Jue's style is now blatantly not caring about consequences, not caring about money, not caring about interests or cooperation.

I only care if you live or die!

So, why aren't you dead yet? Is it because you don't want to?

Then let me help you!

At this point, those with connections could seek refuge in the city, the fast runners could still escape to distant lands, but for those filthy and foul as a cesspool, no one would care anymore.

"Boring, so boring..."

Amid the roar of cannon fire, Lu Feng lazily hung one hand out the window of the armored vehicle outside Pan Mountain Village, flicking ashes from his cigarette, yawning out of boredom.

Really can't get excited.

The scenes that once made the blood boil and the heart surge now seem unbearably dull.

It's like seeing every young man in his twenties eventually become a fifty-year-old Old Deng, fishing by a pond.

Studying fishing, tinkering, calligraphy, painting, all in the name of cultivating oneself, in vain efforts to avoid life's daily grind...

Really can't muster any enthusiasm.

Feels like something's missing.

Clearly, after being at home for so long, this long-missed big scene is bizarrely uninspiring. Clearly sitting in an armored vehicle again, even visited Dragon Mountain once, yet it didn't bring any satisfaction.

Instead, it's leaving him even more hungry and thirsty.

Always feeling incomplete, always feeling insufficient...

"Damn, something's wrong!"

Lu Feng mumbled to himself, clutching his chin: "Could I be ED? No way, I'm only in my early thirties..."

As his thoughts wandered, they spiraled uncontrollably, gradually leading to shock.

Until a massive sound snapped him back.

BOOM!!!

A devastating sound erupted from the heart of Pan Mountain Village, smoke billowed upwards, the sound of twisted and shattered steel echoed, and cries for help blared over the channel.

On the screen, a blazing figure was highlighted.

"Die! All of you die! Damn it, I—"

Amidst the furious roar, a brawny figure burst out of insanity, coarse hair instantly sprouting all over, his face turning beast-like, his form altering.

With a surge of stimulants and banned drugs coursing through his veins, metallic sheen emerged from the thick hair all over his body, swelling further.

Like a berserk giant ape, clutching a shattered exoskeleton, repeatedly smashing it until blood spewed from the deformed steel.

All around, the combat squads were also sent flying, hastily retreating.

A struggle of a trapped beast.

He had no way out.

When attempting to retreat through a secret passage, he sensed the presence of another intercepting Returning Knight, forcing him to abandon his subordinates and reverse course in terror.

He narrowly escaped the Returning Knight's trap, but turning back, there was no way out in Pan Mountain Village now.

Reduced to a death struggle.

Utter madness!

"All units on alert, high-threat target spotted! A wolf! Repeat, a wolf!" a hoarse voice rasped over the channel: "Team Two prepare to retreat, Teams Three and Four provide alternating cover, fire suppression..."

The rear compartment of the armored vehicle abruptly opened, revealing the fully repaired and prepped power armor. With Lu Feng's operation, the metal sealed shut, his eyes illuminated.

System check complete, target locked.

Then, the operation began!

"Blackie, cover me!"

Lu Feng twisted his neck, lifting his eyes: "Finally, something exciting!"

As the sniper who had been lurking among the torrent on the right mountainside finally pulled the trigger, a fearsome caliber armor-piercing bullet had already sliced through the air.

In the fine rain, a bright blue flash vanished, electromagnetic ejection!

Instantly, it surged from stillness to the sky, disregarding the terrifying G-force acceleration, deploying auxiliary wings, the power armor initiating the directional auxiliary engine, gracefully spiraling, following with a sudden thrust boost!

Diving from tens of meters in the air!

Under Isis's maintenance warning, he hadn't opted for the Meteor Maneuver for a temporary thrill, but something even more outrageous and risky, skimming the ground!
