Chapter 466: Chapter 338: Do I Not Care About My Reputation?

The rain was still falling, and Qu Jianlei’s driving speed wasn’t fast; it took about an hour to drive out of the city.

The roads in the suburbs were extensive, and the Imperial also had a satellite navigation system, but this car didn’t have it.

If one wanted to use personal terminal navigation, they would need to purchase a communication watch, but unfortunately, he hadn’t yet secured an identity.

After driving for about another hour, the suburban houses disappeared, replaced by large patches of trees and grass.

Qu Jianlei kept his perception extended, and when reaching a relatively flat area, he turned the wheel and headed straight for the roadside thicket.

After about a minute’s drive, the car disappeared into a forest.

Zheng Ziyang’s car was about five hundred meters away from Qu Jianlei’s car, and with the rain as a cover, this distance was enough to keep it hidden.

He also extended his perception, locking onto the opponent’s car.

For an ordinary A-level warrior, keeping their perception extended was a bit exhausting, but on a highway, it wasn’t something to worry too much about.

When he noticed the other vehicle leave the highway, his heart stirred, and he immediately intensified his perception.

Then he sensed the land situation around him, directly exiting the highway ahead of time.

The roadside land wasn’t very flat, but because Zheng Ziyang was tracking Black Heaven, he had rented a high-powered off-road vehicle.

The off-road vehicle jolted along but still managed to maintain speed.

When Zheng Ziyang arrived where the car had disappeared, he turned the wheel to bypass the dense woods and then was taken aback.

The car was parked not far away, and a person was standing beside it; who else could it be but Black Heaven?

Qu Jianlei looked at Zheng Ziyang indifferently, saying nothing, though there was a hint of resignation in his eyes.

To think of living a peaceful life, why is it so difficult?

Seeing the other, Zheng Ziyang was instinctively surprised, then perceived the surroundings, finding no one else around.

Not an ambush, thankfully, he sighed in relief, opened the car door, and got out, half-smiling as he asked, ”Not running anymore?”

”Sigh,” Qu Jianlei sighed; supporting his Inner Breath, the rain did not wet him, and he looked very calm.

He spoke mildly, ”Captain Zheng, I’m really a bit puzzled, what exactly have I done to offend your team?”

Zheng Ziyang was very cautious, he perceived the surroundings again to confirm no issues, then looked at the other party.

As expected, without the relay signal tower, suddenly returning to the Star of Hope is something no one would have anticipated, how could there possibly be people laying in ambush?

He looked at the other person and sneered coldly, ”Indeed, your perception ability is impressive... Are you trying to use a recording to solidify evidence?”

Why would I be that boring? Qu Jianlei shook his head, answering blandly, ”No recording, I’m just genuinely curious.”

Zheng Ziyang didn’t believe this, but to him, whether the other side had a recording was truly irrelevant.

He sneered disdainfully, ”Are you trying to alert Spirit Fox with a communication watch? Or maybe... Fangcao?”

Are you not done yet? Qu Jianlei smacked his lips helplessly, ”Tsk, I’ve already said I’m just curious about what’s going on.”

So calm... Do you actually have something to rely on? Zheng Ziyang went over with his perception again.

After confirming there was indeed no ambush around, he furrowed his brows in perplexity and asked, ”You dare face me so directly, what are you relying on?”

Qu Jianlei cleared his throat lightly, slowly stating, ”It seems I asked first, so if there’s an answer, you’re the one who should answer first.”

”Because of your electromagnetic body technique,” Zheng Ziyang answered seriously, ”That’s why I sought you out, you’re too weak.”

Many people know about the Black Heaven Body Technique, but not many have set their eyes on it.

On the night of the raid, Octopus Vine noticed the Black Heaven Body Technique but merely mentioned it to White Clothes.

However, White Clothes really took note of it; the Electromagnetic Body Technique is famous for its astonishing speed.

Among superpower warriors of various attributes, the body techniques are primarily electromagnetic and wind attribute focused.

Wind Attribute Body Technique excels in its drifting concealment and speed, but Electromagnetic Attribute Body Technique is purely about speed!

There aren’t many warriors in the Imperial who have awakened Electromagnetic Attributes, fewer than those with Wind Attributes.

Looking at the Central City on the Garbage Star, there aren’t many Wind Attribute Warriors, yet there are still some.

But with the loss of cultivation methods for Electromagnetic Attributes, the gorge won’t replenish!

One reason is forcing Central City to research on their own, but the extreme rarity of the Electromagnetic Attribute is an undisputed fact.

Imperial’s electromagnetic superpower warriors are basically concentrated within the military, and even the Electromagnetic Body Technique... the military doesn’t have it either.

This body technique is currently held by two families; the military cannot forcibly demand it as those families would rather conceal themselves than give it up.

White Clothes was well-informed on this matter; he believed that given Black Heaven’s cultivation level and attributes, it was unlikely he had mastered another body technique.

So, if Black Heaven managed to shake off the fortuitously encountered Octopus Vine, there was a ninety percent chance he had mastered the Electromagnetic Body Technique.

If someone could acquire this body technique, selling it to anyone would fetch a high price.

During the strike on the Star Thief, White Clothes couldn’t bother Black Heaven but kept this matter in mind.

When preparing to break into the control center, fearing he might encounter unexpected trouble, he passed the message to several trustworthy individuals.

Thus, the members of the Quantum Team relayed the message to the captain.

Most members didn’t understand the importance of this information, but Zheng Ziyang was different.

As an outstanding A-level in the Celestial Level Team, he had more opportunities to interact with the Supreme, and indeed understood the intentions of White Clothes.

Moreover, White Clothes died in the control center, while Black Heaven managed to escape unscathed, so when he saw the other party, he was really infuriated.

Anyway, he was going to deal with Black Heaven, so it didn’t matter to lay the groundwork beforehand.

As for offending Spirit Fox, Fangcao, and the like because of it, that really didn’t matter.

As long as he got the Body Technique, conceding some benefits was nothing. With the camaraderie of the Quantum Team, someone would naturally protect him fully.

”Electromagnetic Body Technique...” Qu Jianlei’s expression was a bit strange; he had never really thought about Electromagnetic Body Technique.

Firstly, there was no time. Ever since he started cultivation, he had calculated quite a few Cultivation Techniques.

Except for the Electromagnetic Attribute, which was calculated by force, all others were deduced after borrowing cultivation methods.

Even so, it consumed a lot of time and resources during the deduction process.

Secondly... since he could cultivate, he would naturally spend most of his time on personal cultivation.

Being strong oneself was the true deal; everything else was just fleeting clouds.

But he couldn’t exactly tell the other party that he was using Wind Attribute Body Technique.

Seeing his silence, Zheng Ziyang chuckled lightly, ”Why, not planning to deny it?”

Qu Jianlei looked at him indifferently and shook his head slowly, ”You’ve already spoken so clearly, would my denial... be of any use?”

”That’s true,” Zheng Ziyang actually laughed; this guy was quite sensible.

However, seeing the other’s calm demeanor, for some reason, he felt a bit uneasy.

When one reached A-level in cultivation, they developed some perception ability towards danger. It’s not always accurate, but being cautious is never wrong.

He coughed lightly, ”You come with me obediently, and I won’t make things difficult for you. Let’s let the matter of White Clothes’ death slide...”

Qu Jianlei’s mouth twitched slightly, a bit helpless, ”Was White Clothes’ death related to me?”

Zheng Ziyang didn’t answer the question, ”Or else, show me... why do you dare to be so fearless?”

As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows and began the Finger Technique, ”Quicksand Technique! I must thank you for running to this deserted place...”

He was of Earth Attribute A-level, and precisely because of this, he had a reason to stay at the rear during the initial raid on the Star Thief.

The large-scale Quicksand Technique was his most effective means against the other party.

Currently, it was raining, which enhanced the Electromagnetic Attribute, but Earth Attribute’s Rock Armor was very resistant to Electromagnetism.

He couldn’t believe a mere Electromagnetic B-level could break his defense in the short term. This was also why he dared to chase after.

No matter what backup plans the other had, striking first was always advantageous.

But the next moment, he was taken aback and the words he was about to speak stuck in his throat.

Because he saw... the other party actually fly up, leaving him momentarily dumbstruck, ”You, you, you are A-level?”

Qu Jianlei didn’t fly high, just about a meter above the ground.

He looked down at the other from above and sighed softly, ”Yes, this is my confidence... are you satisfied?”

Damn... Zheng Ziyang finally understood why Black Heaven could retreat unharmed after attacking the Star Thief.

The man was A-level himself, and with the Electromagnetic Body Technique, it made sense he could escape and even go back to rescue... wasn’t that quite normal?

Realizing this, many doubts were resolved.

Why did A-level Wind Attribute Su Dafeng die at the other’s hands?

Why did Black Heaven’s tactics disrupt the Star Thief successfully time and again?

Because he was an A-level, an A-level Electromagnetic Attribute Warrior! Even in a one-on-one, he might not lose to any A-level!

This time he hit a brick wall, but Zheng Ziyang was relieved instead—knowing the source of his unease made it simple.

So he sighed softly, stopped the Finger Technique, looked at Qu Jianlei, and spoke blandly.

”Since you’re A-level, then forget it, I take back what I said... you’re not weak, you have the ability to maintain the Electromagnetic Body Technique.”

Qu Jianlei blinked, looked at him with a half-smile, ”And then?”

”And then... what do you want to do?” Zheng Ziyang asked coldly, ”Intend to trap me here?”

After discovering that Black Heaven was A-level too, he had a feeling that he might not necessarily be a match for the other.

However, even if he couldn’t win... or run faster than the Electromagnetic Body Technique, it didn’t mean he was powerless.

After all, the Earth Attribute meant thick skin and high defense, and also had resistance to Electromagnetism.

Qu Jianlei heard the other’s question but did not answer, still gazing down domineeringly.

Zheng Ziyang steadied himself, bravely speaking, ”You’d better think it through, I’m not powerless!”

”A-level battles affect a wide area, are you sure you can defeat me before the City Guard arrives?”

Qu Jianlei’s face showed a hint of a smile, which looked quite odd.

He coughed lightly, ”Are you sure you dare to fly up and escape?”
