The Backup Plan
Seeing that Sun Miao was serious, Su Li gave a self-deprecating smile.
"Master? I have never seen such a biased master. Between me and Jiang Jun, you actually chose to believe Jiang Jun directly."
I think you, old man, are the one who's unworthy of being a teacher.
Su Li, having given up all hope, no longer had a bright expression; his gloomy, distorted face revealed his ugly inner self.
The emotions of jealousy, disgust, and hatred that were hidden deep inside erupted.
Martial Soul Summon.
A Planer appeared in his hand, and five Soul Ring appeared behind him at the same time.
He pointed the Planer in his hand at Sun Miao and roared, "Since you old man are so unfair, you might as well step down from your position as factory director sooner rather than later."
Sun Miao's eyes were icy cold, and the veins on his hand gripping the Wooden Mallet bulged.
Enraged, he could no longer tolerate it, and raised his Martial Soul to strike Su Li.
As his Soul Ring lit up, the Wooden Mallet in his hand emitted Azure Light, the handle suddenly lengthened, and the mallet head also grew larger.
The enormous hammerhead was large enough to cover half of his body, leaving Su Li with no room to dodge in the cramped room.
Martial Soul: Wooden Mallet.
As Tool Martial Soul, it lacks strong offensive power, but it can play a surprising role in shipbuilding.
However, the originally weak attack power became incredibly terrifying under the cultivation of Spirit Saint.
"Boom!"
Wooden Mallet slammed down in front of him, the Planer in Su Li's hand also grew larger, blocking his path.
"Snap!"
The collision of the two generated Soul Power Fluctuation, producing a loud bang and creating a powerful gust of wind that shattered the windows.
However, the powerful attack was easily blocked by Su Li.
"That's impossible!"
Jiang Jun, who had cleverly hidden behind Sun Miao, was surprised to see this scene.
"Hahaha! Just as I expected, your physical condition has long been nearing its limit. This limp attack is simply unbearable to watch."
Su Li laughed wildly, a smug look flashing in his eyes.
In an instant, he used both hands to scrape the surface of the Wooden Mallet with the Planer, and actually thinned the Wooden Mallet by a layer.
The Planer Martial Soul is completely countered by the Wooden Mallet Wooden Mallet in terms of Martial Soul type.
Moreover, Sun Miao's physical condition had deteriorated significantly due to prolonged poisoning, and he was already at his limit.
Sun Miao was not seriously injured even though his Martial Soul had been partially destroyed. This was because the Wooden Mallet Martial Soul possessed Plant-type characteristics, and as long as it was not completely burned away, it could quickly recover.
However, his declining physical condition led him into a slump.
"Haha, slice, slice, slice."
Su Li laughed wildly as he swung the Planer in his hand with all his might. In an instant, wood chips flew everywhere and then disappeared.
The enormous Wooden Mallet cuts at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Sun Miao could only block the attack with his hands.
"Help! Someone's causing trouble! Help!"
Jiang Jun turned and ran to the window, sending a distress signal to the guards downstairs.
However, his voice seemed to sink into the sea, failing to attract anyone's attention.
Even pedestrians on the street wouldn't look up.
Although the factory manager's office is indeed located on a high floor of the building, there's no reason why such a commotion wouldn't attract the attention of passersby.
Jiang Jun quickly realized that this was the work of other Spirit Master.
"Su Li, how dare you collude with outsiders to attack the Shipyard? You have some nerve!"
Sun Miao is knowledgeable and has some insights into the current situation.
Mirage.
This is a rare Water Attribute Soul Skill.
By releasing a vast amount of Water Attribute mist, the area shrouded in the mist will present the scene that the operator desires.
However, generally speaking, this kind of Soul Skill can only conceal one's form, but cannot isolate all sounds.
Moreover, this is a conflict between Spirit Saint and Soul King.
Therefore, it is evident that the person who releases Soul Skill must be of considerable cultivation.
Just as Sun Miao guessed, from the outside perspective, the Shipyard is still in its original state, and even the broken glass has not attracted anyone's attention.
This indicates that the fog covered a very large area.
However, there are no experts with this level of cultivation among their Shipyard and the soldiers responsible for guarding it.
Only external forces possess such powerful individuals.
The cunning Su Li had clearly made preparations for a backup plan, intending to kill Sun Miao in one fell swoop this time.
As Sun Miao flew into a rage, a chill ran through him.
As time went on, the pills he swallowed were eliminating the Toxin from his body, but if there was another powerful ally, the situation would be beyond his control.
Just as the thought of escaping this area arose in his mind, his Martial Soul suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
His Wooden Mallet Martial Soul was emitting a severe warning sound; the fear in his Martial Soul made him break out in a cold sweat.
"This feeling is something you can't fight against; you can only run away."
Just as Sun Miao was about to grab Jiang Jun and jump out of the window, something unexpected happened.
"Who are you? Where is Lord Xu?"
Su Li's panicked voice came through.
Suddenly, a bright red figure appeared behind Su Li.
The aura emanating from his figure made the cold sea breeze outside the window feel scorching hot.
Of all those present, only Jiang Jun recognized the figure, because he had seen this person just a month ago.
The newcomer was none other than Su Ling'er, who had been secretly following Jiang Jun.
Su Ling'er gave a cold smile and kicked the door frame with her foot. A tall figure fell down beside the door.
Su Li's pupils contracted sharply as he saw the familiar figure collapsing by the door, and his heart trembled violently.
Who exactly are you?
Su Ling'er chuckled softly, and then her pupils suddenly turned into golden vertical pupils.
This was the last scene Su Li saw before he fell into a coma.
"Bang!"
Su Ling'er flashed in front of Su Li and struck him heavily in the abdomen with her powerful lion claws.
The palm strike pierced through Su Li down.
"There are only two attackers, so you can rest assured."
Su Ling'er clapped her hands and spoke gently to Sun Miao and Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun exclaimed in surprise, "Lady Su! It's you!"
Looking at the Six Soul Rings floating up and down behind Su Ling'er, Jiang Jun found it hard to associate the gentle Su Ling'er with a powerful Battle Soul Master.
Su Ling'er said, "It's my Husband who was worried about your safety, so he specially invited me to protect you."
Jiang Jun felt a surge of emotion.
Sun Miao hurriedly thanked Su Ling'er: "Thank you for your righteous help, Madam. I, Sun Miao, am deeply grateful and will repay your kindness."
"We can talk about these things another day. Let's discuss how to resolve the current situation first."
Looking at the two people lying on the ground, Sun Miao resolutely said, "I will handle this."
After saying that, Sun Miao found a magnificent curved knife in the messy room.
"Pfft, pfft!"
Two sounds of piercing flesh rang out in succession.
In the blink of an eye, Sun Miao killed Su Li and his assistant with a single blow.
Su Ling'er was also surprised by Sun Miao's decisiveness.
No wonder he single-handedly built such a massive Shipyard; he's no ordinary person.
As the Mirage disappeared, patrolling soldiers finally noticed something amiss.
Su Ling'er heard someone rush into the room. "The soldiers are about to arrive, so I'll leave now."
Sun Miao did not stop him, but instead said hurriedly, "I will come to visit my benefactor after this matter is resolved."
Su Ling'er didn't answer, she just nodded, and then quickly disappeared from their sight.
