It took a full ten minutes from Kenter’s report to the arrival of the City Guard!

This is quite unreasonable, although Fire Seed Mountain is a bit remote, it’s not far from downtown.

Moreover, Fire Seed Mountain is known as the top mountain in the Star Realm, not only for its natural scenery but also for its rich cultural heritage.

The City Guard has a stationed point at the foot of Fire Seed Mountain, only four to five minutes’ drive from Baiyun Manor.

This is considered a far distance. If the William family reported an emergency in the city, and people didn’t arrive within five minutes, it would be considered dereliction!

However, this time, after Kenter reported the incident and the other side heard that a Supreme had died, who would dare come?

Back then, after Qu Jianlei killed Kushnier, no one dared come. When Fahim was killed, the first to arrive was Bu Shang Supreme.

Were there no City Guards nearby? There surely were, but who dared to show up?

With great ability comes great responsibility, much like the Law Enforcement Team patrolling the night market—if encountering someone selling AKs on the street...

This isn’t cowering before the strong, it’s simply a mismatch in rights and responsibilities.

When the City Guard heard a Supreme from the Divine Text Research Association died, they were even less inclined to come.

Others might not know what the Divine Text Association is about, but those in charge of city security certainly do.

The City Guard straightforwardly refused, ”Lord Kenter, even if we go, it won’t help much. How about we keep a distance... and record?”

Kenter still contacted the higher-ups in the government, only then did the City Guard arrive.

But even when they arrived, they didn’t rush into the manor, instead surrounding the area before someone started shouting.

”Listen inside, you are surrounded. Surrender and come out, the railgun is ready!”

Is it a bit cowardly? It’s necessary; rushing in recklessly could lead to evaporation out of existence, and who’d be responsible for that?

Everyone communicated with each other for another five minutes before the Patrol Guard arrived.

The Patrol Guard is different from the City Guard; the City Guard is purely for security, while the Patrol Guard involves some technical and comprehensive coordination capabilities.

Meaning, when something happens, City Guard responds first, and if they don’t, it’s on them.

The Patrol offers various analyses, including technical and non-technical perspectives, but doesn’t guarantee the problem can be solved immediately.

However, it is certain that issues the City Guard can’t resolve ultimately fall to the Patrol to handle.

This is getting far off topic—once the Patrol arrived, they entered after a brief observation, truly professional.

They sealed the scene, collected evidence, and actively contacted relevant individuals.

Five minutes later, the A-level in charge of the Patrol asked, looking quite peculiar, ”Did you not inform the Divine Text Research Association?”

Kenter, experienced in many battles, raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise, ”Did the military not inform them?”

”Bah, what a mess,” the Patrol’s A-level snorted coldly, unwilling to speak further.

He dealt with various interpersonal disputes daily, having seen countless bizarre events, and could guess what the opponent feared.

Another two minutes passed, and he remembered something, ”Have you notified Cyan Blade Commerce Association?”

Kenter looked at him strangely, ”We engage in legitimate business.”

Although this statement isn’t offensive, despite anyone daring to say it in front of Cyan Blade Commerce folks, they risk getting beaten severely or even killed.

But that’s the impression Cyan Blade gives—no matter how many times they claim legitimacy, negative news never ceases.

Even if many know they’re shielding their Blade Star Realm fellow natives, ultimately, that’s the current situation.

The William family is a pioneer-born family, a natural representative of the local Star Realm natives.

They can liaise with the Divine Text Research Association, but the Cyan Blade Commerce Association, an outsider dragon from across... the farther away the better.

Prejudices aren’t that important; the main issue is differing factions.

At that moment, a Patrol rushed over, shouting, ”My lord, bad news...”

”Patriarch...” Overhead, a shadow flickered—a daring A-level disregarded the Forbidden Sky and flew over.

”Arindel Supreme... is gone!”

The newcomer was none other than the William family’s sole other A-level, absent from the banquet due to the management of vast assets.

In fact, the William family has more than just two A-levels, as there are two external A-level hires.

The three A-levels were outside guarding, mainly because... things have been unsettled lately.

This was largely Qu Jianlei’s fault for causing so much chaos before.

It’s one thing for Cyan Blade and the Divine Text Research Association’s feud, but even Tomorrow Company, which plays a minor role, was seriously struck.

And there’s Bida Freight, which had multiple conflicts with the Earth Scholar.

These incidents don’t affect ordinary people much, but all major forces remain cautiously on guard against potential chaos.

Kenter, hearing this, was also startled, ”Who did it?”

”An electromagnetic attribute guy,” said the arriving A-level upon landing, his face white, ”Killed quite a few people.”

”This guy...” Kenter couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, ”How can he run so fast?”

He knew where Arindel lived; Jiuchuan Academy is quite a distance from Fire Seed Mountain...

Hearing the news, a jewelry merchant also came over, unable to resist interjecting, ”Electromagnetic Body Technique, isn’t it?”

As soon as he finished, his watch vibrated, and he stepped aside to take the call.

After a short time, many people’s bracelets started to vibrate, probably discussing this matter.

In fact, Qu Jianlei was eager to leave to catch Arindel off guard, so he naturally used the Electromagnetic Body Technique.

He wasn’t sure if he could achieve this but, given the possibility, why not try?

This was why he gave up the chance to collect spoils and quickly left.

For the same reason, he spared the others present.

Honestly speaking, it would be quite a headache for him to kill everyone present.

These people were involved with various major factions; indiscriminately killing would only increase the number of enemies.

At the end of the day, the fame of the Divine Text Research Association was too great, a target for many major powers and High Tier Awakened.

This was an objective fact, not swayed by his intentions.

Moreover, the banquet wasn’t intended to target him, and since he found a reason to leave, he naturally did so decisively.

What Qu Jianlei didn’t expect was that after he left, for some reason, the other party really didn’t notify the Cyan Blade Commerce Association.

Anyway, he was rushing all the way, willing to deplete his Inner Breath to see if he could kill another Supreme.

If it wasn’t for the Thunder Ram Horn he acquired beforehand, he would definitely not have acted this way.

But with the weapon in hand, the intent to kill arose quickly, and it didn’t take long for him to reach the Cyan Blade Commerce Association’s outpost.

What a stroke of fortune, Arindel was drinking with the commerce association people, and their defense was extremely weak.

This calamity was destined for him; if it weren’t for moving the outpost here, their defensive awareness wouldn’t be so lax.

At the previous outpost, the hired Fubi Supreme had set up many traps to effectively prevent a raid.

However, Fubi had left to join Amestina on Star No. 4, taking some traps with him and leaving no further maintenance.

Otherwise, there would have been other possibilities.

After Qu Jianlei arrived at the outpost, he observed for a moment, found no issues, and forcefully launched his attack according to plan.

The Cyan Blade Commerce Association had not anticipated this; they never expected Panda’s faction to launch a direct assault.

Their opponent usually acted with ambushes or stealthily infiltrated, changing appearance before launching a surprise attack.

Honestly, this attack method was unpredictable and quite troublesome.

The Cyan Blade Commerce Association prided themselves as tough guys, often complained about their opponent’s deceitfulness, lacking the fortitude of High Tier Awakened.

Speaking of which, when they abducted Xiang Xue, they also employed disgraceful sneak attacks, yet they ignored it.

Because of their opponent’s deceitfulness, their defenses focused on recognizing if their members were impersonated.

This thunderous attack caught them completely off guard!

Qu Jianlei first secretly donned Rock Armor and Golden Armor himself, then used the Electromagnetic Body Technique to dash into the courtyard, heading directly for Alderlin.

He completely disregarded the minor opponents; even if others might attack him, it was of no concern.

Alderlin had the Earth Attribute, but he couldn’t always have Rock Armor on.

His response was fairly quick; upon seeing someone charge in, he raised a hand to armor himself.

His moves were indeed swift, but as his armor was halfway on, the Thunder Dragon’s attack had already arrived.

Qu Jianlei’s first Thunder Dragon prioritized speed; the second one took time as he accumulated Inner Breath for full force.

The Cyan Blade Commerce Association members reacted much stronger than those at Baiyun Manor.

These people were already skilled in battle and cooperation; upon seeing an attack, they responded without hesitation.

— Whether anyone armored themselves was not their concern; the attack mattered.

So when the second Thunder Dragon was unleashed, Qu Jianlei had already endured several Techniques, yet he resolutely held on.

Fortunately, for widely known reasons, their opponent had no Wood Attribute High Tier Awakened.

Otherwise, a Vine Technique could be truly unfortunate.

Arindel’s strength was indeed formidable; when the second Thunder Dragon struck, he forcefully broke free from the paralysis.

However, the Thunder Dragon could track, giving him only time to shout, ”Attribute Weapon!”

It’s undeniable, he truly was a combat talent, making the right judgment based on the Thunder Dragon’s penetration.

Unfortunately, he could only shout this much before a stronger Thunder Dragon knocked him unconscious.

Yet this was still the troubling aspect of the Cyan Blade Commerce Association, even when at death’s door, they wouldn’t beg for mercy.

Instead, they would try to circulate information about their foe for a prepared counterattack, seeking vengeance.

After two Thunder Dragons, Qu Jianlei swiftly decapitated the opponent.

Then he pursued the Cyan Blade Commerce Association members—were you enjoying attacking me just now?

After killing two A-levels, the Cyan Blade Commerce Association members couldn’t hold out anymore and dispersed in all directions!

They weren’t afraid to die, but they wouldn’t be foolish enough to seek death.

The Electromagnetic Attack was indeed swift; Qu Jianlei had killed the third A-level and was about to continue slaying B-levels when a pressure descended from above.

”Such audacity!”
