Swallowed Star: Inverse Heaven Comprehension, Join the Chat Group

Before, Jiang Li would have felt a twinge of reluctance.

But now, with a backpack full of S-grade equipment, he had over eleven weapons alone!

The Blood Shadow War Sword's momentary charge was narrowly dodged by the Iron Armor Dragon, but on the other side, Wang Tong seized that instant and slashed down fiercely, cutting diagonally from the right eye, nearly cleaving half the Iron Armor Dragon's head off!

"Boom!"

On the left, Li Kan swung his Wolf Tooth Club, smashing the Iron Armor Dragon's left eye like lightning.

"Haha!"

Wang Tong couldn't help but laugh heartily. The two worked in perfect sync, their advantages stacking up. Blades and clubs turned into a raging storm, hammering the Iron Armor Dragon nearly two hundred times in just thirty seconds, shattering its skull.

With the Iron Armor Dragon dead, the two junior lords and the beast horde scattered in panic, fleeing in all directions.

"Brother, get to work!"

Wang Tong sheathed his blade, twisted his body, and looked at Jiang Li with a grumble: "You nearly got me killed earlier!"

"What about the Dragon Egg?"

"Trying to steal it?"

Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. He knew Wang Tong and Li Yao were acquainted.

But as War Gods, after joining the War God Palace, unless there was real enmity, War Gods generally had some camaraderie—after all, many Lord Monsters couldn't be hunted alone.

"Can't catch up anyway."

Wang Tong was straightforward and blunt: "And I might not win in a fight, so how would I steal it?"

"Never seen a Dragon Egg before, just curious to take a look."

"Oh?"

Jiang Li smiled and said: "Already sent it back to the Supply Base."

"What the hell?"

Wang Tong's eyes widened: "You guys are running a gang operation?"

Jiang Li: "..."

"Alright, how do we split this 60-40? Cut the materials?"

Li Kan finished processing the Iron Armor Dragon's corpse and asked: "A whole piece of scale armor costs more than double the price of fragments!"

"Just transfer me the market price in Hanxia Currency!"

Even if he didn't mind the price drop from cutting it, Jiang Li had no room to store a whole piece of scale armor anyway.

"Fine, straightforward!"

Li Kan chuckled: "We won't cheat you. The most valuable part of a High Lord Iron Armor Dragon is the scale armor, market price around 400 billion. I'll round up the total with the other materials!"

"I'll give you 200 billion as a token of friendship. If you're fine with it, give me your Warrior ID Number!"

"**0109527!"

Jiang Li reported his Warrior ID Number to Li Kan.

"Four-two-six-one-two-three... (Country Code)"

Li Kan muttered as he typed: "Two-zero-five-six-zero-eight-zero-one?"

"9527?"

"Your name is Jiang Li?"

"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

"Hm~?"

Jiang Li nodded, and then his communicator chimed with a payment notification.

The moment that notification sounded.

Wang Tong and Li Kan's gazes toward Jiang Li shifted dramatically, their eyes bulging wide.

"How, how, how is this possible?!"

Both War God-level experts looked as if they'd seen a ghost, even more stunned than if they'd met Hong!

What the hell?

This guy named Jiang Li in front of them?

What kind of freak is he?!

He really passed the Warrior assessment this year... and became a War God?!

What is this world coming to!!!

"What's with the looks on you two?"

Jiang Li smiled, then his pupils narrowed slightly.

"Hm?"

Jiang Li, Wang Tong, and Li Kan tensed up almost simultaneously.

In the distance, five blurry human figures rapidly approached, sometimes leaping, sometimes sprinting.

In the blink of an eye, they had surrounded the three.

"Li Yao? James... Adam?"

Wang Tong's gaze swept over the arrivals, and he paused slightly. "What's this about?"

Jiang Li's eyes narrowed, and his psychic power instantly spread outward.

For Li Yao to appear here, he must have known that Jiang Li was the one who killed his son.

"Wang Tong, Li Kan—are you helping me, or him?"

Li Yao scanned the scene and had no trouble deducing that Jiang Li and Wang Tong had teamed up to kill the Iron Armor Dragon.

"You mean Jiang Li is the War God who killed your son?"

Wang Tong wasn't stupid.

Jiang Li was a War God and a Psychic. With Li Yao charging in with his men so directly and with such clear intent, how could Wang Tong not figure it out?!

"Help me strike, and the reward is 50 billion!"

Li Yao didn't waste a single word, his gaze locked on Jiang Li as if afraid he might flee at any moment.

"Haha, Li Yao, what kind of person do you take me for?"

Wang Tong suddenly threw his head back and laughed. "No matter how much you offer, I won't lay a hand on a martial artist from my own country. Li Kan, let's go!"

Whether his words sounded noble or not, Wang Tong truly didn't dare to earn that 50 billion!

Not even 50 trillion would tempt him!

A martial artist from the August 1st assessment, reaching War God in less than half a year?

If he could kill him, fine—but if he let him escape, would he come back next year as something beyond War God?

Wang Tong wasn't the only one thinking this...

When Li Kan heard the words "let's go," he didn't hesitate—he leaped and bolted into the distance.

"Knowing Li Yao's temper, if we don't help him, he might not let us off either."

As he ran, Li Kan cursed under his breath. "Jiang Li is a Psychic—how easy do you think he is to kill?!"

"Today is just pure bad luck. First that Iron Armor Dragon chased us ten blocks, and now we're getting run off by this Vulture!"

Wang Tong was fuming too.

But there was no helping it. Both of them had taken serious injuries dealing with the Iron Armor Dragon and the beast horde. If a real fight broke out, they probably couldn't even match a high-level War God!

Chapter 48: Li Yao: Jiang Li, You Have No Escape Today!

"Still not fighting?"

After Wang Tong and Li Kan had fled seven or eight kilometers, they climbed onto the rooftop of a residential building and pulled out binoculars to watch.

"Jiang Li, you have no escape today!"

Li Yao had been waiting too. Only after Wang Tong and Li Kan had completely left did he finally settle his mind.

A Psychic was already hard to deal with. If a high-level War God and a mid-level War God joined in, the five of them might not necessarily win!

Of course, Li Yao had no idea that Wang Tong and Li Kan were both injured.

"...Who said I was going to run?"

Jiang Li, who hadn't spoken until now, swept his gaze over the other four War Gods, his eyes turning cold. "Leave now, while you still can!"

"Attack!"

Li Yao let out a low roar. His entire body flashed with black light, twin blades in hand, his form shooting toward Jiang Li like a black bolt of lightning.

At the same time.

The other four War Gods also moved, charging in from four different directions.

A few hundred meters—crossed in an instant.

The next moment.

Jiang Li moved as well, Bloodshadow Warblade in hand. He exploded with speed, breaking the sound barrier in an instant, turning into a streak of white light as he charged toward the weakest War God, Eckhaus.

"Whoosh!"

A sharp sound of air splitting erupted!

In a flash.

A dagger shot out from his backpack, the streak of light crossing twenty meters in an instant.

Eckhaus knew Jiang Li was a Psychic and had been on guard.
