Qin Fen: this sounded like a common name, but it had suddenly become taboo for Elysium executives. And also because of this, God knows when Qin Fen, this simple name, had become a devil king-like existence in the rumors among the low-level Elysium members.

The middle-aged man still remembered that in the rumors inside Elysium, Qin Fen was a very murderous villain; he is extremely powerful and had taken the lives of God knows how many well-known martial dao masters at a young age. Even General Zuo Dongting, who promoted him in the military, was mercilessly killed by him as well. More importantly, he especially likes to kill Elysium martial artists. Any Elysium members who meet him will certainly lose his life.

The Elysium members can only wish to survive against Qin Fen. Rumor had it that only one person had survived Qin Fen, and that was the beauty of Elysium, Mysterious Daughter of Nine Skies.

Although Mysterious Daughter of Nine Skies survived, Elysium members didn’t believe that the Mysterious Daughter of Nine Skies survived scot-free. Many people speculated that the beauty only survived because Qin Fen had forced himself on her and wanted to humiliate Elysium this way. That was the only reason he let her live.

In short, Qin Fen had become an evil and murderous demon in the impression of the middle and lower strata of Elysium.


Noticing that the surprise in the middle-aged man’s eyes had bee replaced with complete fear, Qin Fen was completely at a loss. He was unable to understand why it was so. I’m not some devil king who kills without batting an eye, am I? Why is he so afraid of me?

“Are you really Qin Fen?” The middle-aged man mustered his last shred of courage, hoping to get the answer that he had just heard wrong.

“I am Qin Fen.” Qin Fen replied gently, shattering the last of the middle-aged man’s illusion completely.

“You… you… how cruelly are you planning to torture me?”

Torture!? Qin Fen felt like a chicken was talking to a duck. We’ve just met and I only asked a question, why are you thinking about cruel torture?

“I just want to know why you attacked us.” Qin Fen repeated calmly. “As far as I know, even if you are an Elysium member, you would not ambush in the natural cemetery casually.”

Du Peng withdrew his mechanical arm, giving his opponent some space to move. But the middle-aged man’s forehead was already drenched in large beads of cold sweat; he felt like he had just walked through the hell’s door.

“We don’t attack people casually, but…” The middle-aged man’s face was also occupied with doubt as he sunk into his thoughts. “But I don’t know why we are doing it this time. We received a very strange order, that is to ambush here. Whenever anyone wants to pass through here, we have to stop them here regardless of the origin of the other party, regardless of the other party’s equipment or organization.”

Qin Fen could guess more or less. He didn’t have a definite proof but the answer that flashed in his mind had an eighty percent likelihood to be true. Elysium probably knows the existence of the new energy source and metal already. That’s why they had made this decision!? Normally, others would choose to retreat when they see Elysium taking such a hard stance.

“Who led the teams here!?”


Qin Fen’s words were very sudden and his tone, very hard. The middle-aged man subconsciously shuddered and blurted out, “Lu Dongbin and other three of the eight heavenly immortals, as well as…”

Suddenly, the middle-aged man realized that something wasn’t right and stopped talking hurriedly, carefully gazing at that iron face of Qin Fen, whose expression he couldn’t guess. He kept his mouth shut.

“I can kill your entire family.” Qin Fen’s Jungle Ranger’s arm patted lightly on the middle-aged man’s shoulders. “Do you believe it?”

A look of terror appeared in the middle-aged man’s eyes. According to the rumors, Qin Fen is a murderous madman who would kill without even batting an eye. This person is very insidious, he actually threatens with the life of his opponent’s families!?

Judging by the struggle in the middle-aged man’s eyes, Qin Fen could that the man was worried that if he said it, it would be Elysium that would annihilate his entire family. What Qin Fen could do easily, Elysium could do it even more easily. This was the advantage of big forces.

“Say it and I will knock you out. You can bet on your survival.” Qin Fen spoke in a calm voice. “If you don’t say it, I will kill you and it wouldn’t be difficult for me to check your family.”

I can live!? The middle-aged man’s muscles were a little stiff as he looked at Qin Fen in somewhat disbelief. Is this true or false? Will this executioner of Elysium let me go? If he really knocked me out and I luckily survived, Elysium would also have no way to check it out. I can also keep my family’s lives as well.

“You can only gamble.” Qin Fen applied a bit of force on the opposite party’s shoulder with the mechanical arm. “Because I am a lot stronger than you.”

The middle-aged man closed his eyes slowly. This statement might sound cruel but it was also a fact that there was a huge gap between both sides, whether it was martial strength or comprehensive strength.

The middle-aged man heaved a sigh. In all of his previous battles, soldiers were against soldiers, generals against generals. This kind of battle with great disparity in strength had almost never appeared.


“There is also a mysterious expert…” the middle-aged man looked like a deflated balloon as he answered in a low-voice, lowering his head. “We don’t know who he really is. Even what he looked like, we have never seen him, so we don’t know. We could only sense that there was a very dangerous aura emanating from him. That feeling was like standing next to a ferocious mutant beast. The longer we stayed, the creepier and more horrifying it felt.”

“Dangerous aura? A creepy feeling?” Qin Fen furrowed his brow tightly, even more so. “What he was just disguising?”

“I don’t know…” The middle-aged man shook his head like a rattle. “I even suspected that it was a ferocious mutant beast rather than a human because he never walked with his own legs. From the beginning to the end, he was carried by Han Zhong on his back, carried in an iron box.”

In an iron box!? I have read all the information on Elysium given by the military. No one among Elysium’s martial arts experts seems to have the hobby of living in an iron box. They wouldn’t have happened to have found a new expert?

Qin Fen didn’t rule out of such possibility. After all, the Federation was so big. No one could guarantee that all experts were known just like the Founding Society, there were very few people who knew about it. No one even knew who the leader of the Founding Society was!

“Four of the eight heavenly immortals and a mysterious expert.” Qin Fen calculated a bit before asking again, “Is there anyone else apart from these people?”

“No.” The middle-aged man shook his head as a bright gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Qin Fen kept staring at the middle-aged man indifferently. The cold iron face seemed to give the feeling that his heart was also as cold as the iron face.

The middle-aged man sighed and he said self-mockingly, “I’m really stupid. I have said so much. In any case, I might as well tell you more. Before I attacked you, I also attacked a group of people. That team had about five or six people and was piloting Jungle Rangers of the same color. My attack did not cause any effect. When the rocket flew in front of a person, it seemed to have been cut by countless sharp knives in the blink of an eye, breaking it into pieces that fell on the ground. If you look carefully, you should be able to find them.”

“Cut the rocket!?” Qin Fen turned his head, looking at Du Peng. In this world, not anyone could cut a rocket apart just because his or her martial arts had reached a certain realm.


Powerful martial artists could crush the rocket into pieces, could ignore the bombarding of the rocket, but if one wanted to cut a rocket apart, that required not just a certain star-class but also a special martial arts skill.

For instance, Du Peng’s Phaseless Water Bird Art was a special cutting skill. Any object that came into contact with it would be cut into pieces in the blink of an eye.

Under the cold iron face, Qin Fen could feel Du Peng furrowing his brow. There were countless mystical martial arts in the world but when it came to cutting-type martial arts, there weren’t many in the world. And the Phaseless Water Bird Art was the king of cutting martial arts.

They followed the story of the middle-aged man, and Du Peng drove the Jungle Ranger to the position where the rocket was cut, staring at the metal fragments on the ground in a daze. This…that’s right! This rocket can only be cut like this using the Phaseless Water Bird Art! The person who cut this rocket apart was using the Phaseless Water Bird Art! Furthermore…

The corner of Du Peng’s eyes twitched several times. Judging by the debris, the martial artists who cut this rocket has higher attainments in the Phaseless Water Bird Art than me.

“How…” Du Peng very much wanted to say how is this possible? The Phaseless Water Bird Art was a unique skill of Du Family. There were very few people who could use it. He was the only one who could use this martial art but the debris on the ground was telling the opposite. There was someone else in the world who could use the Phaseless Water Bird Art, and better than him at that.

Cutting the warhead of a rocket using the Phaseless Water Bird Art while piloting a Jungle Ranger instead of removing it with the mobile armor! Du Peng asked himself, can he do it? Perhaps I can achieve this level of cutting technique if I get rid of this cumbersome mobile armor.

Du Peng drove the Jungle Ranger back to Qin Fen and nodded that cold iron face as he said in a hoarse and dull voice, “It’s the Phaseless Water Bird Art.”

“Apart from you…?”

“It might be Du Hen!” Du Peng blew off the stuffy feeling in his chest as he said, gritting his teeth, “Or Du Yu. I know he did practice the Phaseless Water Bird Art.”


Du Yu!? Qin Fen froze for a moment. Isn’t that Du Peng’s father? It seems he still has no good feelings for the Du Family apart from the guilty feeling for Du Zhanpeng. A child born from rape and moreover, the fate of his birth was to be a human cauldron. How could one have feelings for the so-called biological father in this situation?

Qin Fen heaved a light sight. Sometimes the world can be so warm, like Du Zhanpeng’s love for his brother Du Peng, and sometimes it can be cold and cruel. In the eyes of others, having been born in a huge family might seem like being born with a golden spoon, but his fate was more miserable than those born in an ordinary family.

“Is it Du Yu?”

Qin Fen asked, watching Du Peng answer with a slight nod, “It’s possible. I remember Du Yu was an all-rounded soldier… perhaps…”

Du Peng thought about it seriously before continuing, “Maybe he isn’t versatile as you are but he is still a very terrifying versatile soldier. Under Du Hen’s teaching, no one can be a simple soldier.”

Qin Fen nodded slowly, staring at the distant position where the warhead was cut. It seems that the army isn’t completely at ease with me. Perhaps Du Yu has really come to Saturn!? The huge benefits of new energy and endless prospects of new metal have drawn him out from hiding.

It’s quite possible! Qin Fen turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man, still thinking about the possibility of Du Yu coming to Saturn. He is a high-level figure in the military. If he wants to know about Saturn’s military affairs, it would not be difficult, at least right now! As for the future, once everything is done using Xing Wuyi’s encryption method, perhaps Earth Army will completely lose control of Saturn.

But… Qin Fen looked back at the position where the warhead was cut. If Du Yu really is here, he should have known that I would be coming here as well. Why did he cut the warhead and automatically expose the Phaseless Water Bird Art? Did he think Du Peng is the weakest in the squad, so he judged that Du Peng will not be joining this search?

“One last question.” Qin Fen looked at the middle-aged man. “Which direction did your Elysium team, as well as the team you ambushed, go towards…?”

The middle-aged man raised his hand gingerly as Qin Fen’s cold iron face turned grim. It seems my guess is right. The Elysium team and those people piloting the Jungle Rangers indeed went in the direction where the new energy and metal are discovered.

“I’m going to knock you out now. It will be better if you remember one thing. When you wake up, don’t get up and attack others casually. If my guess is right, Inferno’s team should be coming as well.

“What!? Inferno!?” The middle-aged man lost his wits momentarily. All he felt was an electric shock coming from the back of his neck. It was the high voltage electricity released by the Jungle Ranger as well as the effect of Qin Fen’s neck chop. He was knocked out.

Qin Fen turned his head and looked at Du Peng. At this time, he didn’t need too many words for communication. Du Pen knew Qin Fen was asking for advice from him.

In the current situation, they had two options. One was to immediately chase and grab the new metal and new energy in front of their opponents. The second choice was to be a hunter.

Currently, Elysium was the praying mantis. The mysterious mobile armor squad was an oriole. And behind the oriole might be a poisonous viper, which was Inferno that was likely to appear!

“I want to be a praying mantis.” Du Peng’s voice resounded from under the cold iron face. “We should get to the new energy as soon as possible.”

A smiling Qin Fen raised his metallic arm and patted Du Peng’s shoulder with a loud clang. Both had the same idea! Hiding behind the scenes as a hunter was a pretty good way but it would be even more troublesome if they couldn’t hunt the target. Furthermore, youngsters should have an impact. If they couldn’t make a strong impact this time, Saturn’s military would bear all kinds of pressure.

Although the outbreak of impact would arouse the attention of various parties, it would make everyone have scruples. They would not send spies directly into the army as unscrupulously as they had been doing now.

The two stared at each other before piloting their respective Jungle Rangers into the depths of the jungle. Not long after their departure, Caesar also appeared in the place where they were just standing. He was a bit surprised by the sight of the cut warhead. “Has Du Peng been hiding his strength? It’s a pretty sharp cut! That’s not right! The way this Jungle Ranger’s move is a bit different from Du Peng’s…”

SWISH!

Caesar drove the Jungle Ranger into the depths of the jungle quickly.

Not long after, Inferno’s God of Night 1appeared in the same position, looking seriously at the warhead and the footsteps on the ground.

“Cutting rocket’s warhead in a Jungle Ranger!? Expert!”

“It’s an expert. It seems we need to pay more attention.”

A thick voice resounded from behind the God of Night, which was the voice of the Sixth Inferno King. “The soldiers are the ones most likely to use Jungle Rangers but judging by the track marks here, there seem to be two batches of soldiers. What’s going on? Except for Saturn, has Earth’s military also sent a team?”

The God of Night looked up at the sky with Sixth Inferno King’s voice, in the direction of Earth.

“Father, Saturn seems to have discovered new energy and new metal.” A somewhat haggard Du Yu stood before Du Hen’s desk and reported in a low voice.

“Understood.”

“Should we…”

“No need.” Du Hen fiddled with the hanging orchid on the table. “Qin Fen is on Saturn, let him do everything.”

“But Qin Fen and his team…”

“Unsafe!? I might lose control over them?” Du Hen sneered without raising his head. “It doesn’t matter. Isn’t that good? Aren’t they getting stronger? That’s enough. Apart from the fact that the goal of a divine beast martial artist in the army has not been achieved, my other goals have not changed. Are they still not advancing according to my plans?”

“But father…”

“Don’t talk again about Saturn or Qin Fen. That’s all.” Du Hen raised his head finally, looking at Du Yu. “Some time ago, you gave me much trouble. Fortunately, I liked the results. But to prevent another accident like Zhanpeng, I think you better work harder.”

Du Yu stared at Du Hen in a daze. This man is really cold! It seems there is nothing in this world that can stir up his emotions. This man doesn’t even regard me as a pawn on his chessboard! If his plans could be achieved by sacrificing me, would he sacrifice me in cold blood?

Du Hen looked up to Du Yu and nodded slowly. “I will.”

Du Yu felt a chill running through his bones. Did he really see through my thoughts?

“Everything is for the highest goal.” Du Hen fiddled calmly with the hanging orchid. “Why should we care about the process as long as the result is correct? Du Yu, you have to remember, if I’m dead, the East Asia Military Region will depend on you to lead. You can’t have any personal emotions because your emotions can lead to the death of a million people, or save even more people.”

“Father, I have one more thing to say about Saturn.”

Du Hen, lowering his head, continued fiddling with the hanging orchid leaves, unconcerned. “Speak.”

“Zuo Family’s survivor…” Du Yu spoke cautiously. “Xing Wuyi’s surgery was very clean but some things in the Zuo Family are too deep. I didn’t find anything before the operation. I heard that these survivors had already entered Saturn. One of them is the personal disciple of Zuo Dongting, Light Cutter – Chen Ni.”

“Chen Ni!? That criminal!?: Du Hen clucked his tongue twice. “That Chen Ni used to be a genius once but now he is just a forty-five years old man. He was captured by Zuo Dongting back then, claiming him to be a big sinner, and since then, he started following Zuo Dongting and went by the moniker of Heaven Splitter, Light Splitter? He himself couldn’t have expected that when he exited his seclusion after so long, the Zuo Family would have already disappeared.”

“Yes, that Chen Ni.” Du Yu said in a low voice. “You have once said that his Light Cut should be a Water Bird Exercise derived from our Phaseless Water Bird Art.”

“Interesting.” Du Hen sneered without even looking up. “This Chen Ni is known as the last trump card of the Zuo Family. And he actually went to Saturn. Well, now I know. You can leave now.”
