192: Chapter 191 Showdown with the Warships
"Okay..." She gently set down the wine jar, took the glass, and had a tiny sip. In an instant, her face turned bright red, and she was barely able to stand steady.
Lu Qingfeng caught her: "Focus your heart, silently recite the Mind Clearing Art, take off your shoes, and start Pillar Standing."
Lian Caiyi immediately obeyed and began Pillar Standing.
Before long, white steam rose from her head. As her Qi and blood circulated, Lu Qingfeng could feel her Qi and blood slowly strengthening. The effects of this wine were Heaven-Defying.
It was far more powerful than seven star grass, extremely easy to refine, and the results were exceptional. However, he estimated that anyone below the Baodan stage wouldn't be able to withstand the massive biological energy within the wine.
She only stopped after a full half-hour. The redness on her face remained, proving that the biological energy hadn't been fully consumed yet.
"Caiyi, I still need to go to the Three-Eyed Race. Tonight, your task is to finish this glass of wine. Aim to enter the Inner Gang as soon as possible. Once you do, you'll be invincible below the King-level Esper stage, and I'll feel much more at ease."
"Mm... I understand. Be careful." Lian Caiyi also knew that this was a rare opportunity.
"Alright, I'm leaving..."
With that, Lu Qingfeng left the basement, went upstairs, grabbed his blade, and drove straight towards the west side of the city where the Three-Eyed Race was located.
The journey was smooth. He floored the gas pedal and drove fast. About an hour later, Lu Qingfeng checked the time; it was about three minutes until ten o'clock.
No rush...
He sat a hundred meters away from the checkpoint, waiting quietly.
Their guards here wouldn't chase you away... and on the Human Race side, there were no checkpoints at all, though they would be set up soon.
At exactly ten o'clock, Su Yihan's voice came over the intercom: "My Lord, you can come over now."
Lu Qingfeng drove over slowly, his perception activated, one hand on the steering wheel and the other gripping his blade.
Through his perception, Lu Qingfeng saw that she was alone; the guards had been dispersed, and he didn't sense any danger.
He went straight through the checkpoint and rolled down the car window.
"My Lord, take my car. Human vehicles are too conspicuous... and they can't get into the place we're going."
Lu Qingfeng stared at her and smiled: "Fine!"
After saying that, he grabbed his blade and got out of the car.
He got into her luxury flying car.
The car took off instantly, carrying Lu Qingfeng into the high sky, heading towards a strange building in the distance.
"My Lord, the Grand Commander is meeting with me at eleven tonight to discuss matters, so I think it's a good opportunity. I've been preparing for these past few days. Once it's done, I'll be able to control the Three-Eyed Race very soon."
Su Yihan's face was extremely pale, her hands constantly rubbing her head, and cold sweat was pouring down. It seemed she was being tormented quite severely by the things inside her head.
"Good..." Lu Qingfeng didn't talk much, and she stopped thinking about it, so her complexion gradually improved.
They soon arrived at the strange building.
Lu Qingfeng had considered transforming into a Three-Eyed Race member, but unfortunately, he couldn't manifest that vertical eye. It was a racial mark, and it seemed to follow some rules of the Universe's operation; it was absolutely impossible to create an identical eye, as this involved genetics.
"My Lord, please wait a moment. I'll go change my clothes, and we'll set off in ten minutes."
"Mm... go ahead!"
Lu Qingfeng simply stood on top of this thousand-meter building, overlooking the entire west side of the city. It was brightly lit, with streets and buildings arranged in an orderly fashion.
Thousand-meter skyscrapers were everywhere, and countless flying cars traveled back and forth through the streets and alleys—it was exceptionally prosperous.
Before long, Su Yihan came out in a black evening gown, her temperament outstanding. Lu Qingfeng sighed inwardly: What a pity... those three vertical eyes on her head.
"My Lord, how is the scenery of the West City?"
"To be honest, it's very good. It's countless times better than the South City."
"What about compared to the Human Race world?"
"That's hard to say..." Lu Qingfeng smiled: "By the way, Su Yihan, is your Three-Eyed Race gene technology very mature?"
"Yes... because we have always wanted to start from the genes, unlock the Gene Lock, and obtain extraordinary power. Unfortunately, it has never worked; it seems like something is always missing."
Lu Qingfeng ignored her words. He believed the Three-Eyed Race couldn't do it, but if combined with martial arts, it might just be possible. Ever since Old Xiao mentioned this, he had a hunch that gene-martial arts were the foundation for universal martial arts.
"Can I send people over to learn some gene technology? When the time comes—of course, not right now!"
"My Lord, you're joking. You have the final say..." Su Yihan said respectfully.
She was sensible...
"Then I'll leave it to you, Commander Su." For those who were sensible, Lu Qingfeng would always show enough respect.
"It's no trouble, just give the order, My Lord. By the way... the time is almost up, let's go!"
"Alright..."
The flying car sped between the high-rises and soon arrived at a manor in the suburbs of the West City.
In the distance, there was a small warship hovering there.
"That is the Grand Commander's escort warship."
"Got it!"
Lu Qingfeng gently grasped the hilt of his blade with his right hand.
The flying car slowly descended.
An attendant came forward to open the car door.
"Hahaha... My dear Commander Su, you've finally arrived."
"It's him..."
Lu Qingfeng didn't say a word. He stepped out, drew his blade... and slashed.
A hundred-meter blade aura tore through the pitch-black night sky.
"Boom..."
The building in front collapsed, and the Grand Commander was also cut in two by the blade, dead beyond doubt.
Suddenly... a sharp alarm sounded.
"My Lord... get in the car, let's go..."
"I'm afraid we can't leave..."
He discovered that the enemy's reaction speed was very fast; the small warship in the distance was already gradually ascending.
"Wait for me a moment."
After saying that, Lu Qingfeng stomped his foot on the spot, blasting a deep pit into the ground, and his body shot into the sky like a cannonball.
He rushed toward the warship in the distance.
Su Yihan opened her mouth. She felt that this Lord was perhaps too overconfident. That was a warship—even if it was a small one, it wasn't something human strength could contend with. Human Race King-level Espers were strong, sure, but they couldn't break a warship's shield... He was going to die, and she wouldn't survive either, so she became even more nervous.
The warship discovered him quickly, and several energy machine cannons locked onto him.
"Shoo... shoo shoo." Dense machine cannon fire shot out wildly, and several thick cannon barrels were flashing with blue electricity.
Lu Qingfeng didn't even pay attention to these machine cannons. He activated his Qi and blood, turning it into Outer Gang, with Yin and Yang circulating.
The machine cannon fire hit him like it was hitting transparent cotton; it didn't stir up any waves.
As soon as he landed, he shot into the sky again. If he didn't hurry, he wouldn't be able to do anything once this broken warship reached high altitude.
Blue electricity flashed, and a massive beam of light flew past.
Lu Qingfeng had long since sensed its position. The moment it fired, he quickly kicked off a skyscraper to change his position.
"Boom..." A large hole was melted into the skyscraper.
Lu Qingfeng leaped a few times, using the leverage to approach the warship.
"Break for me..."
The long blade in his hand condensed a blazing blade aura.
It flew toward the warship like lightning. This warship was less than a thousand meters long, and its height was only about a hundred meters.
The hundred-meter blade aura flew past.
"Pop..."
The warship shook violently, its outer energy shield wavering before shattering like a bubble.
"Die..."
Following that, he unleashed another slash.
"Boom..." The blade aura flew past, and the warship, having lost its shield, was sliced in two like tofu.
Lu Qingfeng also instantly plummeted toward the earth.
"Bang..."
He smashed into the ground, creating a crater about ten meters deep... and the surrounding area cracked like a spiderweb.
