Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 492: 322, Long Street, and sniper-like gods_3

Jindai Tongwu clapped his hands and laughed, “Often the simplest methods are the most effective.”

“Since you’ve seized the sniping position, why didn’t you shoot?” Li Changqing calmly asked, “I already felt that a sniper rifle was aiming at me. Did you not have confidence?”

“Being able to feel someone aiming at oneself from 600 meters away, Boss Changqing is indeed at a higher level than I imagined,” Jindai Tongwu stayed in the shadows, never stepping forward, “But I’m curious, where did you get your cultivation traditions from? As far as I know, you are not an Awakener.”

Li Changqing curiously asked, “Do you really have confidence that you can kill me?”

Jindai Tongwu smiled and said, “If it weren’t for these six snipers, I really wouldn’t be sure.”

There are only three kinds of Transcendents in this world, Cultivators, Awakeners, and Genetic Warriors.

...
Genetic Warriors cannot reach A-Class, they merely add onto their genes, incorporating certain gene segments. Genetic Warriors won’t even produce Taboo Lands.

If Awakeners were like Li Changqing, their methods of attack wouldn’t be so pure, since most Awakeners have a variety of powers, some of which may not be suited for combat—not everyone possesses explosive lethal abilities like Li Dongze.

Only Cultivators would have a systematic method of attack.

As Ayang said, Awakeners could be supporters or junglers, or even wild monsters, while Cultivators are born as the core, they exist for battle.

However, according to investigations by the Jindai family, there has never been any record that Li Changqing had studied under a master. Until this year, everyone even considered her a weak woman incapable of trussing a chicken.

Until she killed an expert from the Dear Island family with one palm strike and leapt down from the height of more than ten floors without any harm.

This was a very strange matter—a powerful expert had emerged out of nowhere, yet no one knew where she had received her training.

After all, there are only so many orthodox Cultivation Organizations!

…

…

At this very moment, atop a large building far away, a woman wrapped in a black linen cloak stood in the night wind of City 18.

The high winds whistled, causing her cloak to flutter.

The woman, thousands of meters away, quietly stared down the long street, her expression calm.

As if the distance of three thousand meters could not block her sight at all.

A six-eyed crow stood on her shoulder.

With a click, the access door to the rooftop behind her was twisted open, and Li Dongze slowly walked up to her side, “Sanyue, you’ve come.”

“There will be an A-Class death tonight,” Sanyue responded succinctly.

The meaning was simple, an A-Class was worth her trip.

The woman’s cheeks were gaunt, and her hair tied into a ponytail. Her face was unadorned with makeup, simple yet possessing a unique charm.

Li Dongze looked towards the street and said calmly, “Li Changqing’s snipers have all been killed. Even though she has quietly risen to A-Class, she can only be restricted. Just like you said, she’s indeed very likely to die tonight. The internal power transition within the Li clan finally made the mole unable to hold back any longer.”

Sanyue and Li Dongze, both seemed colder than the other, as if whatever happened in the world had little to do with them, mere observers in the night.

Sanyue thought for a moment and said, “Six snipers, plus eight Genetic Warriors, Jindai and Deer Island have paid a great price together; this is a dead end.”

Li Dongze said, “Though it is a dead end, I don’t think the person who will die is necessarily Li Changqing.”

Sanyue glanced at him, “I didn’t say it was her.”

Li Dongze smiled, “Then we’re quite in tune. I’ll leave first, the outcome is already destined. Tonight’s effort is appreciated; don’t let City 18 turn into Taboo Land. Although I really want to leave, deep down I quite like this place.”

Suddenly, Sanyue said, “If there’s a day you might die, please notify me in advance. Handling an A-Class is troublesome, I need to prepare beforehand.”

Li Dongze smiled, “Of course.”

However, just as Li Dongze was walking towards the central passage of the rooftop, he suddenly froze, abruptly turning to look towards a patch of the night sky.

…

…

In the long street.

Jindai Tongwu laughed, “Forget it, let’s not play games anymore. Matters of the family are significant, and if Boss Changqing interferes with our next actions, it could be very troublesome, so we must ask you to die.”

Saying this, he too, like Li Changqing had done, raised his fist.

To the north and south of the long street, eight Genetic Warriors slowly converged towards the center.

Their steps were unified and in perfect harmony.

From the moment they were selected after their Genetic Potion injections, all their training had been aimed at teaming up to hunt down A-Class experts.

These eight Genetic Warriors, acted as one entity.

In an instant, eight of them burst forth like thunder, collectively leaping towards Li Changqing.

In just a moment, Lao Jiu, as if on a suicide mission, rushed out, desperately trying to break some kind of rhythm and balance among the eight.

However, when he engaged the four from the north, every punch and kick felt like hitting cotton. Those four circled him up, their bodies as manipulable as puppets, dodging at will no matter how fiercely Lao Jiu struggled. They completely preserved their rhythm from being disrupted.

To kill an A-Class, mere destructive power is not enough, as there are few in this world who can match an A-Class expert in terms of destructive force.

Thus, for the eight to collectively hunt down an A-Class, what they most needed to do was to preserve their lives, using a soft approach to counter the hard, continuously wearing down the combat strength of the A-Class expert, gradually devouring his will to fight.
