Jiang Wuming heard gunshots on his way to the War God Pharmaceutical Research Institute.
When he heard the first gunshot, he realized that the second batch of extraterrestrial enemies had arrived. He immediately activated the forbidden technique of the Daoist mysterious internal energy mental method, burning his true qi and rushing towards the War God Pharmaceutical Research Institute at a speed exceeding his limits.
Although he knew that he had used the forbidden technique once when rescuing Li Lianyi, and using it again after such a short interval could lead to extremely dire consequences, he still did it!
Because time was life – he was worried about the safety of Qin Xiaozhi and the others!
Before he could reach the War God Pharmaceutical Research Institute, he heard the sound of an armed helicopter crashing and exploding.
At that moment, he knew that Qin Xiaozhi and the other three had encountered trouble. He felt as if his heart was being squeezed by a large hand, causing immense pain.
He rushed to the crash site as if he had gone mad, regardless of the cost.
Then, he heard gunshots again.
This relieved him slightly – Qin Xiaozhi and the other three were still alive!
But he did not slow down. Soon, he sensed the presence of Qin Xiaozhi and the other three. As he approached rapidly, he heard Qin Xiaozhi’s conversation with the extraterrestrial enemies and learned that Qin Xiaozhi was holding the enemies at bay by threatening mutual destruction!
For this reason, he spoke forcefully in response, intending to attract the attention of the extraterrestrial enemies and prevent them from acting rashly and attacking Qin Xiaozhi and the other three at all costs.
As it turned out, Jiang Wuming’s strategy was correct.
Initially, the extraterrestrial old man in black robes was hesitating whether to attack. Upon hearing Jiang Wuming’s voice, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked behind Qin Xiaozhi and the other three!
In fact, he had sensed Jiang Wuming’s presence when Qin Xiaozhi threatened mutual destruction, but he had not taken it seriously – with his strength, killing a martial artist at the ninth stage of the two-star War God was no different from slaughtering a chicken!
But at this moment, a hint of doubt appeared on his face – why did that martial artist at the ninth stage of the two-star War God dare to be so arrogant and defiant?
Why?
While the extraterrestrial old man in black robes was in doubt, Qin Xiaozhi and the other three all revealed excited expressions!
They recognized Jiang Wuming’s voice and sensed his familiar aura!
After enduring countless hardships, even facing the prospect of mutual destruction with the enemy, they had finally waited for their captain!
How could this not excite them?
It was not only them who were excited, but also everyone in the Eastern Domain Legion and the War Department Headquarters Combat Command Center, including Qin Yuanzheng and Qi Wufu.
Originally, they had all been worried that Qin Xiaozhi and the other three would not be able to withstand the extraterrestrial old man in black robes for even a minute. They had not expected that Qin Xiaozhi would buy time by threatening to detonate bullets and achieve mutual destruction!
On the other side, Jiang Wuming’s speed was even faster than before, and he arrived at the battlefield within a minute!
But soon, amidst their excitement, a worry arose in their hearts: judging by the combat situation between Qin Xiaozhi and the extraterrestrial old man in black robes, the latter’s strength was likely at the ninth stage of the three-star War God. Jiang Wuming, on the other hand, was only at the ninth stage of the two-star War God. Could he kill the enemy by crossing an entire major realm?
The next moment, before they could find an answer in their hearts, they clearly saw Jiang Wuming’s figure appear on the screen.
In the image, Jiang Wuming arrived behind Qin Xiaozhi and the other three like a gust of wind, stopped, ceased burning his true qi, but his entire body was enveloped in white true qi, as if he were clad in white armor.
The battle saber in his hand was already unsheathed, but he did not directly attack the extraterrestrial old man in black robes. Instead, he asked with concern:
“Are you alright?”
As he spoke, Jiang Wuming arrived in front of Qin Xiaozhi and the other three, like a great mountain, blocking them behind him, his gaze coldly fixed on the extraterrestrial old man in black robes ahead.
“We are fine.”
Qin Xiaozhi and the other three stared at the familiar back ahead and replied in unison.
“It’s good that you’re fine. You retreat, and I will handle the upcoming battle.”
Jiang Wuming spoke again, but he did not turn back.
Because if he turned back, it would be equivalent to exposing his back to the extraterrestrial old man in black robes, which was an extremely dangerous thing!
On the battlefield, one’s back could only be entrusted to one’s comrades and brothers!
“Yes, Captain!”
Qin Xiaozhi and the other three obeyed in unison.
As they spoke, Xing Tian, Dongfang Xiaoyao, and Huangfu Weixia retreated with Qin Xiaozhi.
Earlier, the three had defied Qin Xiaozhi’s order and chosen to stay, unwilling to abandon Qin Xiaozhi to his death!
And now, they firmly believed that the young man in front of them could kill the extraterrestrial old man in black robes – by staying, they would not only be unable to help the young man, but they would also become a burden to him, affecting his combat!
“You are Jiang Wuming?”
The extraterrestrial old man in black robes narrowed his eyes, staring at Jiang Wuming, and asked in a cold voice.
Although he had specifically inquired about Jiang Wuming’s information and seen his portrait before arriving in this world, and felt that the young man before him resembled the figure in the portrait, he still spoke to confirm if the young man before him was indeed Jiang Wuming.
“Yes.”
Jiang Wuming’s expression was blank, and he did not rush to attack.
In a short period, he had used the forbidden technique of the Dragon Gate mysterious internal energy mental method twice, burning his true qi. Although he had not yet suffered any side effects, his meridians had endured immense shock and were faintly aching.
If he were to fight immediately, his meridians might not be able to withstand it and could tear or even rupture!
“Originally, before I came to this world, I was still considering how to find you. I didn’t expect you to come to your death voluntarily – I must say, my luck is truly good!”
Seeing Jiang Wuming admit his identity, the extraterrestrial old man in black robes sneered, looking at Jiang Wuming as if he were looking at a corpse.
Although he knew that Jiang Wuming had killed two geniuses from the Mu family – Mu Ming and Mu Qing – his strength was superior to theirs, and his true qi defense was astonishing. He believed that killing Jiang Wuming would be as easy as lifting a finger!
And as long as he killed Jiang Wuming, he could immediately return to the extraterrestrial world through the great curtain and receive generous rewards!
“You spent great effort to cross the great curtain and descend into this world to seek death. Your luck is indeed good.”
Jiang Wuming spoke slowly, his face showing no fear or panic, only composure and calmness.
“Uh…”
Upon hearing Jiang Wuming’s words again, the extraterrestrial old man in black robes was first stunned, then he seemed to hear a cold joke and sneered,
“You, a ninth-stage two-star War God, want to kill me? Who gave you such confidence?”
“In the past, many extraterrestrials were like you, wanting to kill me after arriving in this world. They are all dead now. You are not the first, nor are you the last!”
Jiang Wuming responded forcefully, his blood churning again within his body, true qi surging, and his aura soaring, ready to strike at any moment.
Because he sensed that the killing intent of the extraterrestrial old man in black robes had deepened further!
“You’re courting death!!”
As expected, the extraterrestrial old man in black robes stopped talking nonsense with Jiang Wuming. His figure flashed, and he lunged directly at Jiang Wuming!
