Chapter 465: Chapter 464: Annihilation of the Entire Group
"Qin Yanyang, you dare!"
As Qin Yanyang gave the order to capture them, Zhuge Qingyun was instantly shocked, a fierce light flashing in his eyes. He glared at Qin Yanyang, "Do you want to provoke an irreconcilable conflict and war between two worlds?"
Qin Yanyang didn’t even deign to respond, holding a military saber in his hand as he swiftly charged forward.
"Bang, bang, bang!!!"
The specialized weapons fired shells at the people of the Hidden Sect like a downpour of rain.
Facing such powerful long-range attack weapons, the elite members of the Hidden Sect drew their weapons to block.
Others leaped away, attempting to dodge.
However, these weapons were specifically designed by the Military Department to target martial artists, firing at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary firearms.
Especially some of the shells, which had immense power; even Energy Transformation Realm experts facing them head-on had a more than seventy percent chance of death.
Even Innate Realm experts couldn’t withstand the continuous barrage of such powerful weapons and had to withdraw.
Soon, some of the Hidden Sect experts realized something was amiss. Some surged into the sky, trying to return to the Hidden Sect Plane.
However, as soon as this person shot into the high sky, Qin Yanyang immediately intercepted him.
Now, Qin Yanyang had reached the Innate Realm. Although she had only recently entered the Innate Realm, she had cultivated in closed-door training with Yang Fei. The strength of her True Yuan was by no means weaker than that of some seasoned Innate Realm elders. Not only that, but the True Yuan within her was of the purest Pure Yin Qi, far surpassing the quality of True Qi cultivated by ordinary martial artists.
Furthermore, proficient in combat and equipped with exceptionally strong special military gear, she engaged the prominent young members of the Hidden Sect, and not one could gain the upper hand against her.
Even Zhuge Qingyun, a true chosen one of heaven, couldn’t suppress Qin Yanyang’s prowess.
When several experts attacked Qin Yanyang together, the members of the Military Department focused their guns to provide support. Consequently, the Hidden Sect experts quickly suffered heavy losses, and those who attempted to flee back to the Hidden Sect World were injured by Qin Yanyang and fell to the ground.
The battle was one-sided from the beginning.
The Military Department was a militarily trained team, executing orders without question and operating in sync.
In contrast, those who came from the Hidden Sect, although all nobly born with the weakest among them being of the Eighth or Ninth Grade Energy Transformation Realm.
Yet facing such a battle, they were leaderless and scattered, especially since they were surrounded from the start, with no chance to fight back.
Within just three minutes, only Zhuge Qingyun, Duanmu Cong, and Wang Tianlai from the Langya Wang Family remained uncaptured from the entire Hidden Sect group.
The three encircled Qin Yanyang, their eyes blood-red with fury, desperately trying to restrain her for a complete turnaround.
Unfortunately, Qin Yanyang was too strong.
Even though their realms seemed not to differ much, Qin Yanyang was an expert in combat, wearing high-tech protective clothing, and supported by the assistance of loyal guards like Mo Yinpeng, flipping the tables on the trio in no time.
It was utterly humiliating!
Zhuge Qingyun and the others, as well as those already shackled by special restraints, all felt suppressed and stifled.
In the Hidden Sect, they were nobles who regarded themselves as nearly divine beings in the Mortal World, but they had not expected to be immediately swept away by Qin Yanyang upon stepping out.
If this were to spread, they would lose face completely.
How would they face their peers in the Hidden Sect thereafter?
"We must send someone back to report; we can’t have our entire force wiped out!" roared Zhuge Qingyun, his eyes bulging with fury.
Duanmu Cong immediately shouted, "Hold her down, I’ll go back for reinforcements."
Wang Tianlai hurriedly said, "I’ll go."
Zhuge Qingyun almost spat blood.
Even at a time like this, you lack any sense of teamwork, don’t you?
But then again, if it were possible, Zhuge Qingyun wouldn’t want to be brought low either.
It was simply too shameful.
Nevertheless, as the initiator of this mission, Zhuge Qingyun still possessed a sense of the bigger picture. He decisively ordered, "Let Duanmu Cong go back."
Seeing Zhuge Qingyun make a choice, Wang Tianlai seethed with silent resentment, thinking, damn it, he actually didn’t choose me.
However, he knew very well that hesitation would likely mean none would escape, and if they were all captured without a message sent, it would be disastrous.
"Fine!"
Clenching his teeth, Wang Tianlai’s eyes flashed with determination and he bellowed, "Qin Yanyang, face my blade!"
With robust True Yuan infused into the blade, a thunderclap descended from the firmament, and amidst the roaring thunder, Wang Tianlai struck at Qin Yanyang with his saber.
Qin Yanyang’s pupils constricted, her heart secretly startled.
Thunderclap Saber Technique!
However, the thunderous power summoned was too weak; this person barely understood the essence of the Thunderclap Saber Technique and posed no threat.
Qin Yanyang, clutching the military blade, made a strike with the short weapon that carried an invincible momentum.
At the same time, she shifted the energy gun in her hand, aiming it squarely at Zhuge Qingyun.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, Zhuge Qingyun was blasted more than a dozen meters away, utterly unable to assist Wang Tianlai.
However, with these two entangled, Qin Yanyang could no longer pay attention to Duanmu Cong.
Seizing the opportunity, Duanmu Cong shook off several experts from the Military Department and soared into the sky, flying toward the space rift above.
Just as Qin Yanyang exchanged a blow with Wang Tianlai, her body was jolted back by the recoil, and she saw Duanmu Cong about to escape into the rift of the Hidden Sect; a cold glint flashed in her eyes, her murderous intent chilling.
"I’ll send you on your way!"
Hissss!
The piercing sound of tearing through the air rang out.
The specialized artillery shell ripped through the void, instantly reaching behind Duanmu Cong.
Boom!
A loud explosion.
The light of the explosion flickered in the high sky.
Duanmu Cong’s body had shattered into debris before the flames could even engulf him.
Without any defenses, being hit in the back by an energy gun meant even an expert of the Innate Realm would pay with their life.
With Duanmu Cong solely focused on fleeing back to the Hidden Sect World and having lost the will to fight, Qin Yanyang, intent on killing him, left him with only one path—death.
Watching Duanmu Cong die without a whole corpse, Wang Tianlai felt as if he had been struck a heavy blow.
If Zhuge Qingyun had chosen to assist him just now, who would have been dead?
But before he could ponder further, the muzzle of Qin Yanyang’s gun was pointing his way.
Wang Tianlai’s heart chilled, and without hesitation, he leapt away, dodging to one side.
Zhuge Qingyun was also terrified.
From the start, although Meng Xiaozhou was badly injured, Qin Yanyang still had not killed a single person from the Hidden Sect.
After engaging in battle, she only ordered that they be captured and controlled.
But now, Duanmu Cong was dead.
He too felt a terrifying killing intent emanating from Qin Yanyang.
This woman was crazy!
How dare she execute a Duanmu Family scion from the direct lineage so publicly?
Even with her recent attack on Wang Tianlai, there had been no holding back!
Was she not afraid of sparking an interworld war?
"Cease resistance, or die!"
It was at this moment that Qin Yanyang’s gaze swept over icily, her cold words emerging from her soft, reddened lips.
Feeling that icy stare, both Zhuge Qingyun and Wang Tianlai felt an unexplained sense of reverence.
They had always been proud, hardly admiring anyone amongst their peers, but at this moment, they both felt admiration for this woman from the Mortal World.
Ultimately, the two of them gave up resisting.
They had no choice; they were simply too weak to break through and escape from this encirclement.
They were outstanding figures among the Hidden Sect Eight Great Forces, with great lives ahead to enjoy; none wished to seek death like Duanmu Cong did.
Compared to death, what was the loss of face worth?
Soon, twenty-three individuals from the Hidden Sect, except for the deceased Duanmu Cong, were all taken down.
The members of the Military Department were extremely cautious, shackling these individuals with special fetters on their hands and feet, and conducting thorough searches, not allowing for any slip-ups.
Rendered prisoners, these aristocratic sons from the high gates of the Hidden Sect still had buzzing heads.
How could this happen?
We came to the outside world to show off our power, so how did we get wiped out upon arrival?
For the first time, their haughty spirits suffered an unprecedented blow; their pride was fiercely torn open by a blood-red gash by this young woman from the Mortal World, stark and jarring.
Qin Yanyang approached Zhuge Qingyun and Wang Tianlai, looking at them and saying, "I ask, you answer, I’ll only say it once."
