One Step, Ten Kills
Enemy attack.
The powerful life sign detection of the A-Class Airship would not be wrong. Although it was unknown who planned this ambush, since it was aimed at Li Changqing, it would carry enough power to kill an A-level expert.
The Old Nineteen commander directed the ground soldiers to quickly enter combat readiness.
It must be said that Old Nineteen is very experienced and can handle security work in various environments.
He not only used his own strength, but also keenly observed the two metal storms on the farm roof and sent his soldiers to occupy this advantageous position in advance.
"Airship, immediately call the Qingshan Aerial Fortress over!"
The speed of the Qingshan Hao was certainly not as fast as that of A-Class Airship.
But for Old Nineteen, all he needs to do is occupy this place and wait for the Qingshan Hao to arrive, then all the chickens and dogs on the ground will be wiped out.
Even a demigod would have to avoid the Qingshan Hao's sharp edge.
However, just as everyone was getting tense, the Old Nineteen turned around and was shocked to see that his boss hadn't moved at all, but was instead squatting next to the grave pit.
The graves that should have been filled in were abandoned because of the arrival of the enemy, so the soil has not yet covered them.
Li Changqing squatted down and pushed the dug-out soil back into the pit bit by bit.
Old Nineteen said in the communication channel, "Boss, you don't need to do this dirty work. We'll bury it after the battle."
Li Changqing calmly replied, "It's alright."
The soil was cold.
Li Changqing could imagine how painful it must have been for Qing Chen to dig up this enormous grave.
Moreover, the other party was seriously injured, and digging is much more difficult than burying.
The more Li Changqing thought about it, the angrier he became.
The Old Nineteen asked, "Boss, you have to come and command the battle."
"There's nothing to command, just kill them all."
If it weren't for these people lying in ambush, Li Changqing could have continued her pursuit of Qing Chen's whereabouts much sooner. However, their arrival slowed her down and might even have caused her to miss the opportunity to rescue Qing Chen.
Just then, as soon as the words were spoken...
Suddenly, Matrix Missiles shot into the sky from the ground in the distance, heading towards the airship that was gaining altitude.
However, before they even reached the airship, they were all intercepted by the close-in weapon systems mounted on the airship.
Li Changqing sneered and said in the communications channel, "I roughly know which unit has the capability to hide Matrix Infantry Vehicle here, and the ability to evade infrared, vital signs, and thermal imaging. I didn't expect that the Chen family, after being silent for so long, would also be unwilling to remain silent."
In fact, this hidden force in the wilderness would not be found to have any flaws. If we were to talk about evidence, no one could use these troops to identify the Chen family.
But at Li Changqing's level, there's no need to rely on evidence; logic is all that matters.
Kashima and Kamishiro's modern forces had never been to this location before, and any small infiltration would not have been able to carry heavy firepower, so it could only be the Chen family.
Both the Li and Qing families have the capability, but at this critical juncture, no one on the inside dares to do so.
She and Shadow adopted an imposing, invincible stance, intending to make it clear to the factions within the Li and Qing families that this was not the time to jump out. If they wanted to, they should wait until this matter was over before making any moves, lest they invite trouble.
However, since it was the Chen family who made the move, things must not be that simple.
Li Changqing said in the communications channel, "After the airship has provided a basic level of fire coverage, immediately climb to a safe altitude and do not approach."
Old Nineteen was anxious. "Boss, right now the airships are the guarantee of safety. They're suppressing you with fire from the sky, ensuring your safety. Don't worry about losing an A-Class Airship; your life is far more important! Besides, what they're doing now is trying to force the airships to rise to altitudes where they can't support the ground! They can't possibly deploy more heavy-firepower, modern forces here."
This is the intersection of the Li Military Region and Qing Military Region. The Chen clan could only infiltrate this area through gaps in satellite surveillance.
Li Changqing shook his head. "There's no need to cause unnecessary casualties. This is an order; execute it."
Moreover, as long as the ground is still within the range of the airship's firepower, how could all the ambushers in the vicinity possibly jump out?
The next moment, as the airship ascended, intelligence came through. "New life signs have appeared at both the 2 o'clock and 7 o'clock positions."
Just as Old Nineteen was about to say something, he noticed that his boss was heading towards the 2 o'clock direction.
Li Changqing walked faster and faster, and a Jade Sword suddenly flew out with a whistling sound, as sharp and piercing as a cannonball hitting him.
The Jade Sword had become increasingly solid.
In the cultivation tradition of the Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency, every strong individual can nurture several heart swords; this is Li Changqing's first one to be fully nurtured.
Old Nineteen suddenly felt that his boss was very menacing today.
Li Changqing said, "You don't need to come over. Stay where you are and wait for orders. That's an order."
At the 2 o'clock position is a field covered with thick snow.
As the airship was forced to ascend by heavy firepower, and as Li Changqing approached, the snow stirred.
Dozens of assassins clad in snow-white ghillie suits suddenly stood up, followed by thirty-two pure white war robots.
Li Changqing sneered, "You really went to great lengths to kill me. Just because I killed your patriarch's nephew in City No. 19? Or was it not actually his nephew, but his illegitimate son?"
The dozens of assassins and thirty-two war machines rapidly approached Li Changqing.
Now that Li Changqing was no longer protected by the soldiers around him and was no longer protected by the airship, it was the best time to kill her.
Before this, Li Changqing was either under the protection of the Garrison Troops in City No. 19 or under the protection of the majestic Qingshan Aerial Fortress.
This opportunity is too good to pass up.
The assassins were lying in ambush here, not originally planning to make a move, but when they discovered that the Qingshan Hao had not arrived, they finally made up their minds!
In an instant, the ethereal Jade Sword pierced through the head of an assassin. Li Changqing continued, "I've really been much more merciful lately. If I had discovered you were trying to kill me at any other time, I might have spared your lives and we could have sat down and talked things over, prioritizing peace. But this time, you've chosen the wrong time."
Li Changqing still clearly remembers the sniper rifle shot that sounded like a death knell when he thought he was about to die on the long street.
She still clearly remembers that Qing Chen, in order to continue to provide her with suppressive fire, held his ground on the high-rise building even though he knew that enemies would approach the sniping point.
Now, Qing Chen is still suffering, but someone jumps out to block her way to save people.
Then they'll all die.
The thirty-two war machines had now formed a semi-circular defensive formation, but their mechanical arms suddenly transformed into laser emitters, their interlaced range completely covering Li Changqing's possible directions of movement.
Aiming is useless when facing an A-level powerhouse; only overwhelming firepower can match it.
Li Changqing faced them alone, yet showed no sign of tension.
On this desolate snowfield, the woman, dressed in a black federal military uniform, resembled a lone black piece fighting on a chessboard.
It is unavoidable.
The tactics of those thirty-two war machines were refined over decades by various organizations, specifically designed to eliminate A-level experts on the battlefield.
It was impossible for Li Changqing to avoid the intertwined lasers on his own.
But just as the war machine was about to fire, another white figure suddenly emerged from the snow.
A white raincoat and a black longsword.
The sharp longsword moved as nimbly as a bird. The alloy parts on the war machine were assembled together, yet the longsword moved through the gaps in the metal.
It's like a skilled butcher holding a ox-ear knife, cutting along the tendons, bones, and ligaments of the beef.
These scenes may seem complex, but they only last for a moment.
In just a moment, the white figure weaved through the war machines.
It was as if only one strike had been made, yet it also seemed as if countless strikes had been made.
After he passed the war machines, he saw that all ten war machines had been completely destroyed and scattered. The area covered by the firepower of those ten war machines was exactly where Li Changqing was.
It was as if... a bunch of war robots suddenly opened fire, but deliberately missed their target, Li Changqing.
That was the 'Bystander's' most exquisite swordsmanship, capable of killing ten people in one step.
Zheng Yuandong, the highest-paid assassin in the Federation, and the most famous "bystander".
The next moment, three more Jade Sword swept across the battlefield.
But then they saw that the airship floating in the sky had opened its rear cabin door at some point.
A young man dressed in a gray suit and a black turtleneck sweater stood with his eyes closed at the edge of the hatch.
He remained unmoved despite the turbulence of the airship.
Those feet were like magnets, firmly attached to the floor of the airship.
In the blink of an eye, three Jade Sword darted through the snow-covered farmland, like the most skilled sickles in the hands of farmers, reaping life.
Moreover, a Jade Sword has already arrived in the area where the Chen family has deployed heavy firepower.
Standing high in the sky, He Jinqiu's clothes fluttered in the cold wind, and he killed with his eyes closed, like a god.
The effective range of the Jade Sword he wielded was even more exaggerated than that of modern weapons carried by airships!
This is the most outstanding executive director of the younger generation of Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency, and one of the few masters who could cultivate four heart swords before the age of thirty.
He Jinqiu has always kept his talents hidden in the Outer World.
Since the death of its founder, Hu Shuo, no one in Hu Corporation Intelligence Agency has been able to recreate the dazzling splendor of the twenty-four Jade Sword.
But some say that if that scene could really be recreated, it must have been He Jinqiu who did it.
Li Changqing calmly watched all of this. With three powerful individuals joining forces, no matter who was blocking their path, they were bound to die.
From the very beginning, she knew that the road to rescuing Qing Chen would not be peaceful, simply because this matter had touched the nerves of too many people, and the Federation was never short of opportunists.
Therefore, as soon as she learned the news, she found the two leaders of Kunlun and Jiuzhou and asked them to participate in the rescue.
Fortunately, both of them agreed without hesitation after hearing the news.
Li Changqing looked at Zheng Yuandong: "Thanks."
Zheng Yuandong held the black knife at an angle, thought for a second, and said, "Strictly speaking, Qing Chen is a member of Kunlun. You don't need to thank me."
Li Changqing was stunned. When did Qing Chen join Kunlun? She controls so many Time Walker, how come she didn't know about this?
