Qu Jianlei heard such a sound and couldn’t help but click his tongue, the supreme perception is indeed extraordinary.

Clearly, Buckingham had noticed the three of them landing smoothly before lowering the pressure.

Prior to this, he had already killed five Supremes, and a thought gradually formed in his mind: Supremes are no big deal.

He also knew that one shouldn’t be overly arrogant, but he couldn’t help but think this way—these Supremes are really weak.

Until now, after fighting alongside a Supreme, he realized a fact: Supremes aren’t so weak!

Like this Buckingham, who is currently dealing with a second warship while also guarding against the harassment of a third warship.

In these circumstances, the three landed below the clouds, with rain as cover, yet the opponent could still split their attention to check and issue commands!

The key point is that Qu Jianlei didn’t even perceive that the opponent’s spiritual power had been focused on the three of them all along.

Of course, this was likely because he was busy with vigilance and dealing with other threats, not observing the subtle spiritual fluctuations.

Nevertheless, this still shows that no Supreme is just a title, with such multitasking ability, they have powerful micro operation capabilities.

His previous mindset was somewhat arrogant, truly a frog in a well.

While blaming himself, he silently used the similarity of the water attribute to quietly release some perception.

Although he had a B-level Bai Siwen and a weak perception ability by his side, he wasn’t worried about being discovered.

In fact, he didn’t think Buckingham could perceive his anomaly amidst the fierce battle.

On a rainy day, the similarity of water is infinitely amplified, although Buckingham is ice attribute, the distance was ultimately too far.

Quickly, he chose a direction, pointed with his hand, and muttered softly, ”Go that way.”

As soon as he finished speaking, another pressure rose from afar, ”Which Supreme dares to disregard Celestial Sharp?”

”Optimus, it’s none of your business!” Buckingham replied, ”Someone deliberately offends me, a Supreme cannot be lightly offended!”

The one expressing dissatisfaction was the Guardian Supreme of Celestial Sharp, Optimus, who snorted lightly, and a terrifying aura shot to the sky.

”Hold on, let’s talk this out... Eh?”

The final soft ”eh” was very low, and then the aura vanished without a trace.

Bai Siwen, in his frantic escape, couldn’t help but ask, ”Sir, what happened just now?”

Although he had the pride of a Supreme family, he had spent only a short time with Supremes, and his experience couldn’t keep up.

He had a feeling that the A-level wind attribute beside him probably understood some tacit understanding between Supremes.

Qu Jianlei, however, was somewhat dazed: So, Buckingham’s words earlier were not just to tell the three of them what to do?

Clearly, Optimus was attracted by Buckingham’s spiritual power, unable to bother with the three younger ones on his side.

That is to say, the ones previously focused on them might not only be Buckingham, but also the Guardian Supreme of this planet.

Is it any wonder everyone likes to cling to a stronger backing? With strong backing, it truly saves a lot of worries.

”It should be the two Supremes communicating, the introduction has been made... the particular details are not for us to know.”

Even heroes are accustomed to ordinary people, keeping distance can reduce trouble.

As a Supreme, naturally, they wouldn’t care about ”keeping distant brings resentment,” rather, they should mind ”being close brings disrespect.”

Bai Siwen nodded slightly at the words, setting aside his worries for his grandfather, ”Then where are we going?”

Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, ”We’ll arrive soon.”

Four kilometers away, there was an abandoned quarry, possibly due to the city expanding to this point, causing the quarrying to cease.

The three arrived there, the rain had lessened considerably, Qu Jianlei pointed to a large pile of rubble against a rock wall.

”This should be a good hiding spot.”

The woman with the earth attribute was feeling much better and hesitated momentarily before stating.

”Building a secret room isn’t difficult, but... I can’t manage the elemental wave dissipation well.”

”Leave it to me,” Qu Jianlei replied without hesitation, ”you two just need to hide well.”

The woman still hesitated a bit, this trip to Celestial Sharp had completely dispelled her sense of superiority.

Previously, she had felt she was the darling of the heavens, with a good family background, always having a sense of being above others.

On the starship, she didn’t talk much, not just out of caution, but also because she disdained to associate with those of low status among stowaways.

But after these events, she realized clearly that she was far short of truly powerful Awakens.

Bai Siwen could guess his niece’s thoughts and spoke up, ”This Sir is better off assisting from outside.”

Then he looked at Qu Jianlei, ”Will you leave us?”

”You have a Supreme grandfather, what are you worried about?” Qu Jianlei replied offhandedly.

But after thinking a bit, he added, ”I also won’t just leave like that.”

Even though they had landed on the ground, he had previously promised to protect them, and Buckingham did indeed step in to attract more attention.

So, even though he wasn’t interested in being a babysitter, he wouldn’t forget a promised deed.

The woman heard him, and began performing a finger technique to excavate the secret room.

She chose her position skillfully, a natural crevice, situated between several boulders and the rock wall.

The woman spent three to four minutes digging out a hidden chamber of five square meters, over a meter tall—this is the extent of C-level ability.

The rain continued to drizzle down, leaving her face and body covered in muddy water.

To Qu Jianlei’s surprise, the woman didn’t care about the mud on her.

This proves that although the descendants of the Supreme are arrogant, they do not lack combat skills.

He also casually took out some materials, helping her embed a secret ventilation duct and some waterproof materials.

”Go inside, it shouldn’t take long.”

The man and woman hid inside, then pulled some mud and stones to seal the chamber.

Sitting in the dark chamber, the woman gagged a couple of times, ”I feel awful... the stuff in this Storage Talisman is quite comprehensive.”

Bai Siwen replied casually, ”Rich in wilderness survival experience... Even Grandfather said he has been through a lot, must be a tough guy.”

”Let’s hope so,” the woman gagged again, ”I still have no idea how he eliminates his scent.”

Qu Jianlei easily eliminated his scent by combing through with wind elements, where there is rain, there is wind, no need for excuses.

Taking advantage of the rain, he not only concealed the entrance of the hidden chamber but also erased the footprints leading to it.

After finishing these tasks, Qu Jianlei’s figure flickered, disappearing into the fine rain.

Buckingham was dissatisfied with his own handiwork; he had only destroyed the power system of one warship.

As the warship descended, he destroyed several layers of parachutes, but most people still managed to escape using lifeboats and mecha.

While he was destroying a second warship, Optimus arrived, ”Stop it!”

Buckingham ignored him completely, continuing his sabotage, thinking if even an A-level could damage a warship, he couldn’t afford to lose face.

While the Customs Enforcement Division’s warship held up its protective shield, it complained, ”Sir, you see, the other side is truly vicious.”

Guardian Supreme, a burly man, watched for a while before recognizing the intruder, ”Stop it! Why aren’t you focusing on academic pursuits?”

Buckingham, realizing he could not have his way quickly, reluctantly halted and replied sullenly.

”Look above, aren’t you curious as to why a Passenger Starship was detained by the Customs Enforcement Division?”

The large transport ship from the Customs Enforcement Division had ascended to capture the Passenger Starship.

Now, the transport ship extended seven or eight mechanical arms, holding the Passenger Starship firmly, leaving no room for denial.

”Tsk,” Optimus clicked his tongue in annoyance, aware of the deep waters in the Customs Enforcement, as a Guardian Supreme, how could he not know?

He didn’t want to get involved in such troubles, ”You can slowly discuss your matters; I have a duty to guard, you need to stop stirring up trouble.”

”The Supreme should not be trifled with!” Buckingham stated coldly, ”It won’t end until a hundred heads roll!”

”Enough is enough,” Optimus pointed downward, ”That Imperial Battleship is basically wrecked by you.”

”Do you know how much a warship costs? Don’t force me to take action against you!”

A warship capable of interstellar travel is incredibly valuable, easily exceeding billions even without considering the weapon system.

However, Buckingham wasn’t buying it at all, ”Don’t give me that, they have plenty of funds!”

Optimus’s face darkened, ”You do understand what my duty is, right?”

This statement was both a threat and a compromise; the duty of a Guardian Supreme is to prevent High Tier Awakened from running amok.

In today’s incident, he would not allow further troubles, but the matters of the Customs Enforcement Division... he wouldn’t bother with those!

This was a clear division of responsibilities, each side managing their issues, the Customs Enforcement Division had its own Supreme, and Optimus wouldn’t interfere unjustly.

As long as Buckingham didn’t publicly use Supreme power, he wouldn’t meddle further.

Yet, Buckingham wasn’t satisfied, ”What if I told you they even invited a Supreme to deal with me?”

Hearing this, Optimus’s face darkened again, ”Do you have evidence for this claim? Are you ready to take responsibility?”

If such a thing had happened, it would indeed be his negligence, far more serious than the current affairs.

Buckingham answered sulkily, ”How could I be responsible?”

He did not hold any information on the cripple, having heard it from a Wind Attribute A-level, it couldn’t be said without evidence.

He didn’t disbelieve Qu Jianlei, but the problem objectively existed, ”With you showing up, how would that guy dare to appear?”

”Are you daring to deceive me?” Optimus’s face sank, showing signs of turning hostile, ”Have you forgotten the origin of my title?”

Buckingham was stunned by what he heard; he hadn’t expected the other to want to face-off sincerely with him.

Yet he did know the origin of the other’s name, Optimus—unambiguous and responsible in actions.

There’s no error in the nickname, it’s quite fitting!

This person wasn’t fond of meddling, but within his jurisdiction, anyone committing wrongdoing would face real consequences.

On top of that, his fighting capabilities were super strong—without strength, how could one be ”Optimus”?

Buckingham didn’t intend to muddle into unnecessary fights with him.

Moreover, it’s not clear if he was justified, he probably couldn’t even win against him.

He hesitated a bit and then communicated quietly with the other using Spiritual Power, ”Do you know about the cripple?”
