A Weight Off One's Mind

Xia City, although the capital of Xia Hai Province and economically developed, doesn't have many cars, and the roads aren't complicated, making it easy for Baili Qingfeng to track someone.

After advancing one hundred and sixty meters, a six-story high-end apartment building came into view. In the parking lot below the apartment was the vehicle Eddie had been riding in earlier.

Baili Qingfeng glanced at it...

The apartment was large; knocking on each door wasn't feasible.

But if Eddie didn't return for a long time, his assistant and driver would inevitably come back to look for him. He could ask them then.

He was also a bit hungry. Seeing a shop with a good view across from the apartment, he walked in.

The shop wasn't big, with ten tables for four people. Currently, six tables were occupied, and business was good. Baili Qingfeng sat down at one of the tables and picked up the menu...

"Passing Through Your Black Hair, Mother and Child Reunion, A Rose's Fragrance Lingers in the Hand, To the Toona Sinensis We Eventually Ate... just these few."

"Okay, sir."

The waiter responded.

While waiting for his food, Baili Qingfeng occasionally looked outside.

Soon, a serving of Toona Sinensis, a serving of Fish-flavored Shredded Pork, a serving of Fried Soybeans with Bean Sprouts, and a serving of Kelp Stewed Pig Trotters were brought to the table.

Baili Qingfeng ate slowly. Although the recovery of his injuries didn't adhere to the law of conservation of energy, inexplicably getting better, it was always good to eat more to replenish himself.

What's more...

Nineteen-year-old him was at the age of growing.

Growing four centimeters this year was the best proof.

Time quickly passed by half an hour.

Baili Qingfeng finished his meal and was watching TV. The TV was playing a war movie, the Mank Islands Battle, but the protagonists of the battle weren't just humans, but a war between Xia, the Vino Federation, and Red Flame Country against the Mermen in the southern island groups.

The Mermen landed from the sea, invading the island territories of Xia, Vino, and Red Flame. Then, a blood-steel barrier woven from artillery fire and bullets rendered the battlefield extremely tragic and magnificent.

"A sense of déjà vu from watching modern people remake World War II war movies..."

Baili Qingfeng commented.

The official story was that Xia, Vino, and Red Flame cooperated and achieved a major victory, expanding Xia's territory by nearly 30,000 square kilometers. But in reality, Xia lost 60,000 troops in this battle, and they were the most elite veterans. It was rumored that the supreme commander of this battle was General Melbourne, who had made great contributions at the beginning of Xia's independence.

While watching TV, Baili Qingfeng quickly saw two people walking out of the apartment from the corner of his eye, heading towards the abandoned factory.

One of them...

Was Et.

He had seen Et once in the hospital, so he naturally remembered him.

"Two people..."

Baili Qingfeng touched his chest where his ribs were broken...

"I am a seriously injured patient, fighting two enemies... Forget it! For these vicious people, I can only be even more ruthless than them. Be ruthless to the enemy, and be ruthless to myself, otherwise, from now on, I will forever live in fear!"

Baili Qingfeng's eyes flashed with determination.

Immediately, he went forward to pay the bill and followed the two towards the abandoned construction site.

One hundred and sixty meters wasn't far, and soon the two arrived at the abandoned construction site.

Then...

Exclamations, shock, cries of sorrow, roars of anger...

After some routine operations, a person quickly ran out of the abandoned construction site.

Baili Qingfeng recognized this person; he was Eddie's driver...

"Bang!"

Because the surrounding light was too dim, and it was pitch black, this person suddenly rushed out of the construction site and happened to bump into Baili Qingfeng, who was planning to go in.

"Hiss!"

The collision made Baili Qingfeng's chest ache, and his face paled slightly!

"Get out of the way, don't block me!"

The person rebuked angrily and reached out to slap Baili Qingfeng in the face.

This was a martial artist.

A powerful martial artist who, although had not undergone Qi Refinement Blood Exchange, possessed a strong physique and could rely on his sturdy body to fight against Qi Refinement Blood Exchange-level martial artists. If this slap landed on an ordinary person, it would be enough to send them flying.

"My injuries are too severe, I must use the strongest means to fight quickly and decisively. As long as I kill them, I can unload the burden and go to school with peace of mind!"

A sharp light burst out in Baili Qingfeng's eyes.

Spirit Refinement Manifestation!

And...

Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art!

He had rested for almost two hours, so the after-effects of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art had naturally passed long ago!

Instantly, in the eyes of this burly man, the eyes of the seemingly young man in front of him seemed to burst with lightning. Before he could see what the lightning was, the lightning had already fully erupted, forming the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning that shook the soul, tearing through the sky, and crashing down on him.

The intense shadow of fear and death covered him, making the burly man widen his eyes, his whole body cold and stiff, as if his body was trapped in a nightmare. Even though he clearly knew that if he didn't resist immediately, he would be blasted into dregs by this terrifying lightning, he couldn't even move a finger...

"No!"

With all his strength, the man let out a roar of fear and unwillingness.

"Bang!"

The next moment, intense pain tore the man apart.

His whole body flew backward, crashing six meters away, slamming heavily on the ground, and then sliding another meter on the rough surface with undiminished momentum, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his eyes...

Vacant.

Until his death, he never saw how Baili Qingfeng made his move.

"A Hong!"

A voice filled with a hint of sorrow suddenly echoed in the abandoned construction site.

Clearly, the sounds of the fight had already been heard by Et.

As Baili Qingfeng stepped into the construction site, a figure also swiftly approached. Upon clearly seeing Baili Qingfeng entering, the figure immediately stopped, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"It's you!? I remember you! You are Baili Qingfeng! Baili Changkong's grandson!?"

Et's face was filled with suppressed anger as he glared fiercely at Baili Qingfeng. His eyes darted around frantically, as if searching for something. After a moment, he suddenly roared, his hair standing on end in fury: "Baili Changkong, you truly have the gall of a bear and the audacity of a leopard, daring to kill my father!? Immediately get out here and accept your death! I'll give you ten seconds. If you don't come out, I'll report this matter. When those above are enraged, your entire Bai Li family will have to be buried with my father!"

As soon as Et finished speaking, he suddenly felt the aura of the young man in front of him, whose face was slightly pale, and who clearly didn't seem to have vigorous Qi and Blood, suddenly change.

It was as if a dormant volcano had been completely ignited in an instant, and violent Qi and Blood surged out of him, almost soaring into the sky.

The pressure and shock that followed made him widen his eyes involuntarily.

"This Qi and Blood intensity... it's you!? You killed my father!? How is that possible!?"

Et's eyes were filled with disbelief.

He and his father had thoroughly investigated the Bai Li family. Although Baili Qingfeng had only taken a few days to develop energy, and was highly regarded by Baili Changkong, he had only been practicing martial arts for a few months. What ability could someone who had been practicing martial arts for a few months have!?

But now...

The terrifying aura erupting from Baili Qingfeng, he had never even felt it on his father. In a daze, he even felt like he was facing the Guard Captain beside the Prince, a War-level inhuman monster!

"Roar!"

A ferocious beast seemed to roar in the void!

Baili Qingfeng charged forward in one step. A fear originating from his life instinct suddenly rose, causing Et's expression to change drastically.

"Not good!"

In the next moment, his right hand shook, and a delicate pistol fell into his palm with incredible speed. Listening to the sound to identify the position, he didn't even need to look carefully, and had already accurately locked onto Baili Qingfeng's figure.

Gun Kata!

He and his father Eddie were not on the same path at all.

In terms of physique, he was inferior to his father Eddie, and in terms of martial arts, he was even more inferior to Eddie!

But relying on twenty years of hard training in Gun Kata...

He was not afraid of any martial artist below the War-level.

"Die!"

Et roared, and the gun in his hand suddenly pointed at Baili Qingfeng.

However, when he truly pointed the gun at Baili Qingfeng, what he saw was no longer a human.

But...

A ferocious beast!

A terrifying and ferocious legendary creature that shot out terrifying lightning all over its body—the ancient Thunder Beast!

No, the monster before him was even more ferocious, terrifying, fierce, and domineering than the legendary ancient Thunder Beast!

Suddenly witnessing such a monster, his pupils widened, unfocused, his mind was so shocked that it almost stopped functioning.

"Bang!"

Before he had a chance to fire, an indescribable pain had completely engulfed him!
