Chapter 856: Chapter 726: Bullying the Weak by Flaunting Power

The appearance of the Qi Gathering Array was another huge and unexpected shock for the four inhabitants of the Garbage Star.

In their understanding, cultivation is about using crystals and various primary and auxiliary cultivation resources.

As for how to advance from A-level to Supreme, no one knows—it’s far away from their lives anyway.

This way of cultivating with just an Energy Block really shattered their existing perception.

The four of them cultivated for two days and felt pretty good about it, especially Claire, whose sensations were very obvious.

”Cultivating like this is much more comfortable than using crystals; it feels like progress is very smooth, and it won’t take long to reach B-level.”

Flower Scorpion looked at her wryly, ”Do you think advancing to B-level is so easy? Don’t be too impatient.”

Bentley’s concern was on another point, ”Jian Lei, are you going to make another Qi Gathering Array?”

”It’s for my own cultivation,” Qu Jianlei replied solemnly, masking the secret of the Spirit Gathering Array for now.

Bentley didn’t suspect anything, just clicked his tongue in wonder.

”Our Qi Gathering Array already has ample energy, yet it can’t even support your cultivation? As expected of a Supreme.”

Having said this, Qu Jianlei reminded them once more, ”The news about this Qi Gathering Array...”

”Is also a secret,” Blair quickly interjected, ”We know, we won’t tell anyone.”

”It must not be revealed,” Qu Jianlei nodded approvingly, ”This would attract the pursuit of the military and the Supreme.”

The four people understood. The pursuit by the Imperial Military and the Supreme seemed distant to them.

But considering the boss is already a Supreme, perhaps... it’s not impossible, the Supreme opponents wouldn’t be much different.

Xiao Qin couldn’t help but ask, ”Boss, have you provoked a Supreme before?”

Unknowingly, she already regarded Qu Jianlei as her boss.

”More than just provoked,” Qu Jianlei sighed, ”I’ve even killed them, killed two on the Garbage Star.”

He didn’t disclose how many he had killed, not to boast, but out of concern for scaring his comrades.

Some information, it’s better to let them learn gradually.

Bentley nodded when he heard this, not surprised by the answer at all.

”After all, being attributeless, as a Supreme as well, must be the strongest attributeless.”

Xiao Qin moved her mouth slightly, she really wanted to ask, how many Supremes have you killed.

But thinking again, she was new to the team, and it wasn’t appropriate for her to probe into sensitive matters.

And to be honest, she was also a bit worried about knowing the answer—couldn’t have killed too many, right?

She didn’t know exactly how many Supremes the Empire had, but clearly, anything involving a Supreme wouldn’t be trivial.

Flower Scorpion, on hearing this, snorted indifferently, ”So what if it’s a Supreme? Even if we can’t match them, the worst is just dying.”

Undeniably, in this team, she had the most daredevil spirit.

Before they knew it, twenty days passed, and the five of them were fully rested, rejuvenated in spirit.

Qu Jianlei felt that continuously cultivating here went against his promise.

So he proactively asked, ”Feeling suffocated, want to see the outside world?”

”Yes,” Claire was, of course, the first to respond, ”I’ve rested enough.”

The others appeared slightly more restrained, but having promised to wander through the stars long ago, who wouldn’t be eager?

”Then pack up and get ready to set off,” Qu Jianlei said with a slight smile.

After being a loner for so long, he finally had company, and he was quite looking forward to it.

The rest packed up their gear and found him heading towards the shabby-looking starship 8384, stunned at the sight.

”Using this starship?”

”Don’t underestimate this shabby starship,” Qu Jianlei climbed the gangway, ”I’ve said, it’s famous in the area.”

The rundown starship sailed out of the stone door, which then closed automatically behind them.

Flower Scorpion couldn’t help but sigh at the sight, ”Truly high technology, the Empire doesn’t solely belong to the Awakened.”

”No big deal,” Qu Jianlei chuckled internally, thinking this was nothing, ”It’s just a matter of spending some money.”

Claire had the most questions—though she is just the most uninhibited.

”In the camp, I saw so many Energy Blocks, does that count as wealthy in the Empire?”

Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment before replying, ”If you live honestly for a lifetime, it’s enough, a normal family won’t finish spending it in ten generations.”

Then he patted the vehicle, ”This starship alone is enough for all of us to travel around until old age peacefully...”

”But, the Awakened should have the pursuits of the Awakened; wanting to see a more exciting world, this is far from enough!”

Claire’s spirit lifted upon hearing this, ”Boss, I also want to live an exciting life, lead us to take off...”

Bentley smiled and shook his head at her, ”Youth is indeed wonderful.”

Three days later, the 8384 landed at Lanyun Market and began to descend.

Once landed, Flower Scorpion checked the instruments and couldn’t help muttering, ”The environment here... isn’t that great either.”

”Take it slow in a good place,” Qu Jianlei connected to the market network.

At this time, the other four rookies, after a brief learning, had somewhat mastered some related operations.

Qu Jianlei posted a trade request online, purchasing some daily necessities.

Almost instantly, someone responded, it was someone from Pudding Mining.

The price was quickly agreed upon, and soon the market’s management delivered the goods.

Claire wanted to go down to receive the goods. Just as Qu Jianlei was about to nod, he suddenly felt something was off.

He had always gone down alone. Sending a woman this time was clearly unusual.

If anyone linked it to the recent anomalies on the Garbage Star, it could easily stir up trouble.

The Asteroid Belt is quite far from the Garbage Star, so theoretically, such concerns are unnecessary.

But Qu Jianlei wasn’t very confident in his physique... well, that’s just a pretext.

The crux of the matter is, he knew how valuable his secret was to the entire Imperial system.

Driven by this value, guesses and connections would be made even over ten times the distance from the Garbage Star to the Asteroid Belt.

So, he shook his head, ”I’ll... forget it, I’ll go down with you.”

Seeing two people coming down from the worn-out starship, the market administrator was a bit puzzled for a moment.

There had always been one person from the 8384 ship, so why were there two this time?

Moreover, the other was clearly female with the aura of an Awakened, which wasn’t too surprising.

Qu Jianlei didn’t mind their surprise, directly stating, ”In the future, she will mainly liaise with you on my behalf.”

The two people exchanged a glance, and one of the B-levels mustered up the courage to speak, ”Sir, this is...”

Clearly, he wanted to know the reason, or if the other party would personally come again in the future.

Qu Jianlei frowned and then snorted coldly, ”Was I not clear?”

He should have casually explained a bit, but truly explaining would not fit the Supreme identity.

The B-level did not dare speak further, just nodded repeatedly, ”Understood, sir, we got it.”

Claire also kept her composure, finalized the goods, and handed over the Silver Notes.

Then, based on the leader’s instructions, she asked, ”Pudding has a big business, can you help get two false identities?”

When she asked this, she feigned calmness, yet her heartbeat quickened significantly.

But it must be said, the harsh environment indeed hones people. Though young, she acted convincingly.

If it weren’t for Qu Jianlei’s strong perception... at least the B-level across would not detect her unusual demeanor.

The B-level obviously hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, ”Ma’am... what is your expected price range?”

”Don’t talk to me about expected price range!” Claire replied bluntly, ”Just give me your quote.”

To be honest, this did not really stump her. She grew up in Zone Zhou Character.

From her father’s death and the house being seized, to leading a low-profile then high-profile life in Zone Six, to her mother’s passing and evading capture everywhere...

Despite her youth, she had gone through ups and downs, experiencing both fortune and hardship.

She had much contact with the societal bottom, and the act of wielding borrowed authority came naturally.

The B-level across felt a bit choked: just a little C-level, and you’re talking to me like this?

Sure, you have a Supreme by your side, but who doesn’t have a Supreme these days?

But... okay, your Supreme is right next to you. I want to invite a Supreme, but they probably wouldn’t even pay attention. You’re the boss!

So, he answered earnestly, ”I can ask for you, but I can’t guarantee... I have to wait for higher-ups to respond.”

Seeing the other party willing to negotiate, Claire pushed further, ”We can’t wait too long.”

Well, you can leave now... the B-level internally complained, but had to respond, ”It’s hard to say the exact timing.”

He was genuinely frustrated. No matter how you look at it, you’re just a little C-level, speaking to a B-level, shouldn’t you show some courtesy?

Claire tilted her chin slightly, ”Isn’t the cost unclear too?”

The B-level glanced at Qu Jianlei, ”It’s really hard to say, sir, your thoughts?”

Qu Jianlei shook his head, spoke calmly, ”You two discuss it, don’t ask me.”

Hearing this, the B-level speculated internally that this Supreme probably won’t come personally in the future, which is why there was no strong support for his own people.

Given this situation, he wouldn’t show weakness and replied neither servile nor overbearing, ”I have to wait for the higher-ups to respond for that.”

Claire wasn’t happy hearing this, so she gave Qu Jianlei a glance, ”Boss, should we not handle it here then?”

”Fine,” Qu Jianlei nodded casually, ”I told you to take charge, I support everything you decide.”

The B-level across heard this, and his face turned pale, like wax, ”Sir, I didn’t mean to offend you.”

”You didn’t offend me,” Qu Jianlei replied indifferently, flinging a ”you’re not worthy” look.

Then he turned and ascended the gangway, Claire followed suit, muttering as she went, ”What a godforsaken place this is.”
