I am Peerless Mad

Chapter 589 A Glimmer of Hope

Longguo's aerospace technology leads the world, with military satellites capable of capturing ground targets within a 0.5-meter range.

This means that if one were to locate a person using military satellite positioning, not only could their image be precisely captured, but their facial expressions could also be clearly seen.

At this moment, including Qi Wufu, everyone could clearly see the figures of the extraterrestrial black-robed man and Li Lianyi in the image.

In the image, the extraterrestrial black-robed man was holding Li Lianyi by the neck with one hand, like carrying a chick, darting through the forest at extreme speed. The dispatch had specifically slowed down the footage several times, allowing everyone to see this clearly.

"Whoosh..."

When Qi Wufu and the others saw that Li Lianyi was still alive, they all breathed a long sigh of relief.

However—

Very soon, their expressions changed drastically again!

Because, in the footage, the extraterrestrial black-robed man suddenly stopped and then, like discarding trash, threw Li Lianyi onto the ground.

Bang!

In the forest, Li Lianyi fell heavily onto the ground, a sharp pain shooting through her back, as if her bones were about to break.

The intense pain made her tremble all over, her head swimming. But with her powerful mental will, she struggled to get up.

She knew very well that her situation had reached its most dangerous moment. Only by remaining conscious and dealing with it calmly could she possibly gain a sliver of hope for survival!

"Bitch, you're quite stubborn, not uttering a sound! However, soon you'll be begging for mercy beneath me!"

Seeing no fear on Li Lianyi's face and her struggling to stand, the extraterrestrial black-robed man sneered and was about to attack her.

He intended to roughly rip Li Lianyi's clothes and ravage her!

Just then, Li Lianyi suddenly spoke, "Do you want to know why Jiang Wuming could defeat and kill geniuses from your world by fighting as the weaker party?"

Huh?

Startled by Li Lianyi's words, the extraterrestrial black-robed man's movements paused slightly.

Before descending to this world, he had learned a lot of information about it.

Among that information, the most abundant was about Jiang Wuming!

At that time, upon learning this information, he, like many from the extraterrestrial worlds, was shocked!

Because he couldn't imagine how a native at the ninth stage of Two-star War God could cross realms to kill geniuses like Mu Ming and Mu Qing!

This was also a point of confusion for the entire extraterrestrial world—how could such a low-level native world produce such a heaven-defying martial arts prodigy?!

Seeing the extraterrestrial black-robed man stop, Li Lianyi knew her gamble had paid off. Without waiting for him to regain his senses and attack again, she continued,

"I have a video of Jiang Wuming fighting the martial arts geniuses from your world. Do you want to watch it?"

As she spoke, Li Lianyi took out her phone, revealing it. The phone showed that her call with Jiang Wuming had not been interrupted.

Li Lianyi noticed this but didn't pause. Instead, she immediately minimized the call interface and opened her photo album.

The video of Jiang Wuming leading the Zhanlong team in their battle at Putuo Temple had become a global sensation. Some had even specially sought out sign language experts to decipher Jiang Wuming's conversations with the extraterrestrial enemies at the time, and analyzed his tactics in that battle—using information disparity to shock the extraterrestrial enemies and then seizing the opportunity to strike.

Li Lianyi had watched the deciphered video and had specifically saved it to her phone's album.

Previously, at the War God Medicine Research Institute, she had mimicked Jiang Wuming's psychological warfare tactics against his enemies to stall for time and obtain extremely valuable intelligence.

Now, she keenly sensed the extraterrestrial black-robed man's interest in Jiang Wuming's video. She intended to open the video and show it to him, to stall for time once more and gain a final chance for survival—waiting for Jiang Wuming to come to her rescue!

Yes.

Although she had no communication with Jiang Wuming since the extraterrestrial black-robed man had emerged from the barrier, and she didn't know about Jiang Wuming's combat deployment, she believed that Jiang Wuming would come to save her.

From an emotional perspective, this was a woman's unique sixth sense.

From a rational perspective, it was based on her understanding of Jiang Wuming.

And just now, seeing that her call interface with Jiang Wuming was still active, she was even more convinced of this!

"Combat video?"

The extraterrestrial black-robed man snapped back to attention, staring fiercely at Li Lianyi.

"The combat footage details the entire process of their battle."

Li Lianyi slowly stood up, opened the video in her album as she spoke, and held her phone out to the extraterrestrial black-robed man.

Swish!

The extraterrestrial black-robed man snatched the phone.

"Whoosh..."

Seeing this, Li Lianyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had successfully piqued the extraterrestrial black-robed man's curiosity and diverted his attention.

Even if this was only temporary, it would serve the purpose of stalling for time!

The extraterrestrial black-robed man was indeed curious. He wanted to know the secret that puzzled the extraterrestrial world, so he temporarily gave up attacking Li Lianyi and focused his gaze on the phone screen.

Inside the phone, the video had already opened, playing the combat footage from the Putuo Temple battle, complete with text annotations.

Hmm?

The extraterrestrial black-robed man immediately saw the Mu family genius Mu Qing and was completely captivated, watching until Jiang Wuming blasted Mu Qing to death!

At that moment, the extraterrestrial black-robed man's eyes widened, his fierce face instantly replaced by shock!

Then, the shock on his face was replaced by anger: "This damned native!"

"You insidious bitch, you're using my curiosity to deliberately stall for time, waiting for reinforcements!"

After a low growl, the extraterrestrial black-robed man glared at Li Lianyi again.

After Mu Qing was killed, he lost interest in the rest of the video!

"If I said Jiang Wuming would come to save me, would you believe me?"

Seeing that the extraterrestrial black-robed man's attention had returned to her, and he looked very angry, Li Lianyi did not give up. She made one last effort and asked again,

"Uh..."

Hearing Li Lianyi's words again, the extraterrestrial black-robed man was stunned once more, then he let out an angry sneer.

"Bitch, are you trying to scare me? You think I'm afraid of him? Let me tell you, the moment I chose to come to your world, I never thought about living!"

"—"

Li Lianyi fell silent.

Even with the calmness, composure, and wisdom unimaginable to ordinary people, at this point, facing someone who feared no death, she didn't know how to continue stalling for time.

Despair and helplessness appeared in her heart for the first time!

Yes.

Even at the War God Medicine Research Institute, even when she hadn't gotten into the car and faced the extraterrestrial black-robed man alone, she had never despaired!

But now, she felt as if she had one foot in the grave—the extraterrestrial black-robed man had seen through her intentions and would no longer allow her to stall for time, no matter what she said!

However—

Just as Li Lianyi felt despair and helplessness, a voice suddenly rang out.

"She's not scaring you; she's stating a fact!"

"Who?!"

The sudden voice made the extraterrestrial black-robed man's heart tremble violently, and he instinctively shouted.

Li Lianyi's pupils, however, suddenly widened, and she looked at her phone.

The voice was coming from the phone!

"I am Jiang Wuming, the one you are looking for."

At this moment, Jiang Wuming's voice sounded again.

Hmm?

Hearing Jiang Wuming's words again, the extraterrestrial black-robed man's pupils suddenly widened, and he looked at the phone in his hand.

"No need to look at what you're holding; that's my weapon. You must also really want to know where I am—I'm behind you."

At the same time, Jiang Wuming, on the other end of the phone, seemed to have clairvoyance, able to see all the extraterrestrial black-robed man's actions. At the critical moment, he spoke again.

Swish!

The extraterrestrial black-robed man instinctively turned his head, then found the area behind him pitch black, with no human figures at all!

"Bitch, you dare to toy with me?!"

Seeing no one behind him, the extraterrestrial black-robed man turned back, glaring furiously at Li Lianyi.

He didn't know about the phone, nor why Jiang Wuming's voice was coming from it. Subjectively, he believed Li Lianyi had deceived and tricked him!

"I am really behind you."

The response to the extraterrestrial black-robed man was still Jiang Wuming's voice!

However—

This time, the voice not only came from the phone but also echoed in the forest behind the extraterrestrial black-robed man.

That voice, like a thunderclap, instantly ripped through the night sky!

ps: There will be more tonight.
