Since crossing over to this world, Baiyu has always wanted a simple life, avoiding all kinds of risks. But ever since that night with the female anchor, troubles have been unrelenting.
Extraordinary Abilities emphasize that all fates are influenced by Extraordinary Power.
In the terminology of his previous life’s Buddhist Family, this is called karma.
Once involved, there’s no full retreat; now, if he doesn’t resolve the Abyssal Ascetic Association and the Demon Race, he won’t have peace.
Even a simple bounty task encounters them.
Truly relentless spirits.
"No matter what plans or schemes they have, as long as I hold out until Qiong Jiu arrives, it will be over."
With Qiong Jiu’s strength, there should be no one here who can stop her.
Baiyu thought it through thoroughly: "I just want a simple life—read books, collect rent, get married and have children, enjoy life, and eliminate any factors that disrupt my path, far from those aberrations and spiritual pollution."
In this moment, the confusion Baiyu experienced recently suddenly became clear.
Why practice martial arts?
To enjoy life, eliminate danger, reason with others properly, and ensure the poetic dwelling of the soul and heart.
It’s to live his simple life.
To wipe out every fool that disrupts his simple life!
So, at this moment, Baiyu decided he needed to do something.
Jiang Xi removed the bandages from her arms.
Before she could take two steps, Baiyu had already moved past her, walking through a large crowd of trembling bounty hunters.
He blocked Allen’s way.
This Law Enforcement Captain—at their first meeting, there was a great disparity in their statuses and strength.
Allen couldn’t believe that in such a short time, anything would have changed.
"Do you want to stop me too? Baiyu, if it wasn’t necessary, I wouldn’t want to fight you. Many times, positions aren’t as simple as they appear. You might think you’re on the right side now, but later you might find you’re wrong."
Unless absolutely necessary, he really didn’t want to fight Baiyu.
Others might not know.
But he clearly understood that Pang Fei, as a General, wouldn’t lack protective measures. The Valkyrie from the Qiong Family was his teacher, how could there not be backup plans?
Not to mention how time-pressed it was now.
Even if given ample time, he couldn’t kill the student before him, as Bruce’s end had shown everything.
Taking action against him would only provoke the combined wrath of Pang Fei and Qiong Jiu.
Better to share some inside information; maybe they could win over such a genius.
The surrounding bounty hunters, seeing Allen’s group had no intention of leaving, didn’t approach but instead subtly surrounded the exit with their beetle armored cars.
"Actually, I don’t care about what you all are doing behind the scenes."
"Whether you want to rebel or seek profits, I don’t care. I’ve never considered positions since the beginning. I just want to live my own life well."
"But you shouldn’t have had endless fools come out to disrupt my quality of life."
"The female anchor, Bruce, Rong Jinshan, and the assassination I encountered in the forest with crows."
"Just one small mistake, and I could have been dead."
Baiyu sighed, slowly taking out a magic cube from his backpack, "At that time, I had no power to resist, so I accepted it, but that doesn’t mean I don’t hold grudges.
I hate this passive state very much.
So when I hear you talking about positions, it really irritates me. No matter what ghostly position and purpose you have, go talk to King Yama about it.
I’ve laid my cards on the table!
Erza, switch to remote annihilation mode, adjust to eliminate the Energy Level of the Church’s Law Enforcement Squad Captain."
Baiyu sliced his palm, fresh blood immediately surged into the magic cube before him.
The black magic cube suddenly emitted light and shadows.
A scaled-down image of Erza appeared on the cube, her green eyes flickering: "Target locked—Predecessor Law Enforcement Captain Allen of the God of Machinery and Steam, Sinking Iron Church; five Demon Race Two-Horned men; confirm Energy Level release, confirm command authorization—Baiyu, strike starts!"
The moment Baiyu took out the cube, Allen was seized with an ominous sense of dread.
He immediately recognized what Baiyu held in his hand.
The key to the core part of every Legendary Ship!
Only the Ship Master of a Legendary Ship can possess it!
And in Linjiang City, the Legendary Ship—anyone could guess which one it was, he had even been eyeing it a few days ago.
"You... is Qiong Yue crazy?"
He lost his composure and yelled out; the Simulation Realm almost instantly expanded and encapsulated, forming an eggshell that enveloped all six people.
The surrounding people had no idea what was going on.
Only those who understood Legendary Ships, like Profound Celestial Pivot and Song Xu, knew what was happening before their eyes. Of course, knowing this only left them even more shocked.
A group of people was utterly confused.
But they soon understood what was about to happen.
Three beams of light shot from the horizon in a terrifying form, enveloping Allen and his group in the blink of an eye; their coppery-rusted Simulation Realm lasted barely two seconds before being shattered by the beams.
Next came the dazzling white brilliance, constantly shining.
There was no sound at all.
No explosions, no shocks—nothing.
After more than ten seconds, the beams slowly disappeared.
The five Demon Race members had vanished into ashes, not a scrap left, in the truest sense of the word.
And at this moment, Baiyu’s Pollution Level was also skyrocketing.
Ten points, twenty points, thirty points...
After the strike, his Pollution Level had reached forty points.
However, after repeated tempering by the Resplendent Bird in past dreams, his mental resilience was already leagues beyond what it was.
The impact left a smooth round pit, with only Allen’s corpse within, fresh blood overflowing, already dead.
It’s different indeed, having a true big shot with a Simulation Realm.
Even managed to leave a complete corpse?
Baiyu stowed away the Heart of the Dance, and the wound on his palm gradually healed.
Meanwhile, the people around were left in a mental fog.
What were those three beams about?
Except for the few students who came with Baiyu.
Especially Gan Yuhan, whose eyes sparkled with an indescribable light, pondering something unknown.
"With one strike, my Pollution Level increased by 40 points, but the Pollution Level can be lowered. Using 40 points of Pollution Level to kill someone as powerful as Allen who had a Simulation Realm..."
This was a very worthwhile exchange.
He still didn’t have true control over Erza.
The authority he had to launch such an attack on a human enemy was already at its limit.
Under these settling conditions, two flying cars rushed over from a distance at maximum speed.
Not even bothering to park.
With a leap, Qiong Jiu closed the gap of dozens of meters in one bound and landed steadily in the field, blood qi converging on her left arm, which she then punched out.
A clear phoenix cry rang out.
A massive snow-white phoenix illusion soared behind her.
Frost poured like a flood, instantly freezing the emerging Snow Beasts into ice sculptures, continuing to spread among them, the area covered by her blood qi punch forming a thick snowy world.
The mine was directly sealed in ice with one punch from Qiong Jiu!
