93: Suppressing it with a single thought, are you... a spiritual master?!

Under the gray sky, the engines of the military transport plane gradually died down.

The cabin door slowly opened.

Su Lei's figure appeared at the top of the gangway, his black trench coat flapping in the biting cold wind.

He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers standing by on the tarmac, finally resting on Lin Qianqian, who was walking quickly towards him.

"You're finally here."

"An hour ago, Zhao Tianhe dispatched a hundred elite troops towards the Kunlun Mountains."

Su Lei's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, "He acted without telling me... Does he want a piece of this too?"

"He said it was to cordon off the surrounding area and provide us with support at any time."

Su Lei nodded slightly, his gaze passing over Lin Qianqian to the four figures lined up behind her.

Lin Qianqian stepped aside, "These are the newly recruited members; their information has already been uploaded to your terminal."

The tall man standing on the far left stepped forward, "Zhou Mingyuan, Third-Order Martial Master."

"Liu Hongyan, Third-Order Martial Master." The woman in black form-fitting clothes played with a dagger, its blade flitting like a butterfly between her fingers.

The last two were twins, who saluted simultaneously: "Wu Brothers, Third-Order; their combined attack technique can fight a Fourth-Order."

Su Lei's gaze swept over the four, one by one, seeing unease and apprehension in their eyes.

He said nothing more, turning and walking towards the military helicopter that had been waiting for a long time.

"Let's go."

... The biting cold wind, carrying snowflakes, whistled and swirled between the steep rock faces.

Su Lei narrowed his eyes, his gaze piercing through the swirling snow curtain.

In the distant valley, the Martial Alliance Association's camp was brightly lit, with dozens of Martial Artists busily setting up detection equipment.

Chen Xuan arrived, treading on snow, his sword tassel swaying in the wind, a hint of helplessness in his brows.

Su Lei frowned slightly, "What, are you also part of this Martial Alliance Association's exploration team?"

Chen Xuan let out a bitter laugh, the white mist he exhaled freezing into frost in the air.

"No choice, a master's command is hard to defy."

"It seems this time, we'll be competing against each other..."

Chen Xuan suddenly took a step forward, and after a moment of hesitation, cast a complex look.

"Su Lei, this time..."

"You should still give up."

He pointed to the distant camp, "Including me, the Martial Alliance has sent five Grandmasters and thirty Martial Masters this time."

"Heh." A sharp glint flashed in Su Lei's eyes, "As expected of the Lei Family, quite a grand gesture."

Chen Xuan's expression was solemn as he looked at the figure in the distance, surrounded by others.

"Don't underestimate Lei Qianjue."

"He entered the Grandmaster realm at twenty; even looking at the entire Federation, he is the most dazzling Genius in a hundred years."

Lin Qianqian, standing nearby, heard this and her lips twitched slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

"He's just a Young Master propped up by Family resources."

Wang Kai walked quickly from a distance, his brows full of fatigue, his combat uniform still stained with unmelted snow.

"Zhao Tian is guarding the southeast pass with five special forces teams, ready to provide support at any time."

"The situation on the periphery has also been scouted; there are five Yao Beasts."

Su Lei frowned, raised his hand, and slapped his shoulder with a Forging Body Palm, activating the Qi and blood within him.

"You haven't truly entered the Grandmaster realm yet, don't overexert yourself. There's Mental Energy scanning, terrain scanning..."

"Mental Energy scanning?"

A sneer suddenly interrupted his words.

A dazzling purple lightning bolt struck down, instantly scorching the snow-covered ground.

Lei Qianjue walked slowly, treading on electric arcs, his purple-gold battle robe spotless, dangerous electric sparks dancing in his hair.

He squinted at Su Lei, his eyes full of mockery: "To get information about this place, the Martial Alliance Association lost quite a few people."

"Do you think we wouldn't have tried this method?"

"Or do you naively believe that the Martial Alliance Association has no Mental Energy Masters?"

Chen Xuan hurried forward: "Young Master Lei, the Federation's order is for both sides to cooperate in the exploration..."

"Cooperate?" Lei Qianjue suddenly interrupted sharply.

"It's already generous of the Association to bring him along and give him a share, but this guy, not knowing his place, wants to take the lead?"

"He really thinks he's someone important!"

Su Lei's lips curved slightly, "Oh? So you are the Lei Family's Third Young Master?"

Lei Qianjue snorted lightly, lightning flickering within his sleeves, his purple-gold battle robe moving without wind.

"According to the intelligence we have, there are at least five Yao Beasts inside."

"Su Lei, with your meager manpower, I'm afraid you won't even see the shadow of the ore vein before being buried in the belly of a beast."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over everyone, stopping abruptly when he saw Lin Qianqian, a mocking curve forming on his lips.

"Isn't this Junior Sister Lin? Long time no see."

"I heard your esteemed father recently... became quite famous?"

Lin Qianqian's face turned ashen, and she clenched her fists tightly.

Lei Qianjue feigned surprise, raising an eyebrow: "What, has no one told you? Your father, Lin Xiaotian, is on the Federation's SS-level wanted list. He's probably hiding in some gutter right now, isn't he?"

"With your meager abilities, I advise you to just go back obediently."

Lin Qianqian retorted, unwilling to show weakness: "Wasn't it just because I rejected your pursuit back then? What? Has Young Master Lei become enraged out of humiliation?"

The cold wind suddenly stilled, and a suffocating atmosphere filled the air.

Lei Qianjue's face was as dark as water, a hint of savagery flashing in his eyes, "How dare you speak to me like that..."

"Forget now, even if Lin Xiaotian were still here, your Lin Family would be nothing in front of the Lei Family!"

"Kneel for me!"

Before his words finished, a black-robed figure behind him suddenly stepped forward.

His cloak moved without wind, and his eyes burst forth with dazzling Mental Energy light.

A massive Mental Energy pressure crashed down like a mountain!

"Ugh—!"

Lin Qianqian's body trembled violently, her knees buckled, and the accumulated snow beneath her feet instantly exploded.

If Su Lei hadn't previously developed her brain region, she would probably have fainted by now!

"Hmm?" The black-robed figure showed slight surprise, then sneered, and the Mental Energy pressure surged again!

However—

"Scram."

Su Lei's eyes lifted slightly, his gaze like lightning, and a Mental Energy Impact several times stronger suddenly erupted!

The invisible wave swept across several kilometers in an instant.

"Boom—!"

The black-robed figure, who bore the brunt of it, was struck as if by lightning, violently spitting out a large mouthful of blood, and heavily knelt on the ground!

The Martial Masters in the distant camp, even more so, rolled their eyes and collapsed in a faint!

"Me-n-tal... Grandmaster..." The black-robed figure coughed up blood on his knees, his face filled with horror.

Lei Qianjue's protective amulet at his waist instantly shattered.

His pupils constricted, and he subconsciously retreated several steps, his gaze at Su Lei filled with an indescribable trepidation and wariness.

The next moment, three figures instantly appeared beside him.

Each had a profound aura, and Protective Aura swirled around them, clearly indicating they had entered the realm of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

One of them concernedly checked Lei Qianjue's condition, while the other two looked around as if facing a formidable enemy, their gazes converging on Su Lei.

"Very good, very strong."

"No wonder he has the guts to bring this group of rotten fish and shrimp here..."

Lei Qianjue forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart, then turned to look at Su Qianqian, letting out a cold sneer.
