Chapter 938: Chapter 934: There’s Always Someone Better

After Jin Ye spoke those words, the laughter of the Red General roared out loud.

"Hahaha~ I’m dying of laughter! Jin Ye, you actually treasure this knife so much, hahaha... Well, since you hold it in such high regard, I might as well give it to you. I don’t think it can stop you anyway."

With that comment, Jin Ye’s face turned grim instantly.

"You... are seeking death! The Level 6 New Humans are not just your mayor, but me as well!"

All of a sudden, Jin Ye burst out, his murderous aura seeming to drop the temperature of the surroundings several degrees. Bending his knees, he leapt up into the air, his gaze as piercing as two long, chilling swords thrusting at those he looked upon!

His momentum suddenly exploded, and like a hawk, Jin Ye swooped down towards the Red General!

An overwhelming pressure swept over, the air before his nose appearing significantly denser, and unconsciously, beads of cold sweat broke out on the Red General’s forehead.

"Stop!"

She struggled to shout, as Jin Ye’s speed was too fast, leaving her no choice but to passively defend. However, as soon as she spoke, the Red General abruptly heard a loud noise next to her ear, making the ground tremor!

Opening her eyes, Jin Ye was standing right before her!

"Scared?"

"No, being afraid of death is a reaction everyone has," the Red General calmly responded.

"Is that so?" Jin Ye sneered, having not actually intended to kill the Red General just then. He was merely forcing her to reveal what they relied upon.

"If your confidence comes from Bright Moon City, then unfortunately, Bright Moon City poses no threat to me. In time, my Golden Night will grow stronger, and your Bright Moon City will become the next Peace Party!"

The Red General straightened up, standing tall like a spear, looking straight at Jin Ye as if he was not a formidable Level 6 New Human, but merely someone of her own level, her gaze fixed into his eyes.

"Jin Ye, I acknowledge you are very powerful now, but won’t you regret the words you just said?"

"Oh, why?" Jin Ye asked, his interest piqued. The murderous intent lurking in his eyes did not escape the Red General, who knew that if she couldn’t utter a word that could utterly intimidate Jin Ye in the next moment, it would also be her time of death!

Her gaze swept around, landing on a hunter from the mercenaries guild wearing a Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suit. She pointed at him and said, "The Dongsheng Co-management’s Changxiao 3.0 has indeed good defenses. It’s funny, its name isn’t what you think. It’s a joke that you call it a Hunter, could it be because it can allow a group of Level 4 New Humans to hunt down a Level 6 New Human?"

"Hehe, what’s even funnier is that you, Jin Ye, think having these things means you can dominate everything? Impossible. There are better suits than these. As the saying goes, there’s always someone better, and there are heavens beyond this sky. Level 6 New Humans exist not just in Bright Moon City, including you, but you forget that in this post-apocalyptic world, not everyone will always stay the same. Everyone will experience certain things and change, becoming stronger. Our mayor has done so too. Do you still think our mayor is a Level 6 New Human? Actually, a long time ago, our mayor had already evolved to Level 7. No one will wait for you to improve. Do you think your so-called Hunter Battle Suit can withstand an attack from a Level 7 powerhouse?"

Her words lingered in everyone’s ears. Hearing the mention of Level 7, almost everyone fell silent. The scene turned eerily quiet, and the Red General saw, as the last syllables fell from her lips, Jin Ye’s pupils suddenly contracted!

"Su Sigui has already evolved to Level 7?"

Jin Ye seemed unable to respond immediately, his mind fixated on those two words: Level 7!

No one would wait for him; while he progressed, others wouldn’t stand still—they too would advance. Ultimately, he was still a step behind!

Encountering a level of power he hadn’t known before, Jin Ye felt as if he had returned to that time when he thought being Level 6 made one invincible, a god! But upon reaching that level of power, he had thought he could battle gods. Yet, his rate of progression was still too slow; there would always be existences stronger than his own!

The surrounding silence was terrifying. Lv Jinyu in the campervan seemed dazed, likely still not processing what had happened.

"Jin Ye, we are not your enemies. As long as you don’t make things difficult for us, on the contrary, Bright Moon City will not pursue today’s matter. We go our separate ways, not disturbing each other. We’ve had enough excitement for today; it’s time to leave."

Having said that, the Red General’s gaze swept around. Those she looked upon seemed stunned by the words ’Level 7,’ and none spoke.

"Let’s go!" She quietly said to a few powerhouses from Bright Moon City and then led the way back, feeling relieved that the other powerhouses hadn’t made a move against them. They had been merely bluffing, but the words were true—Su Sigui had indeed evolved to Level 7. However, following a meeting with Tang Ye, he had taken most of the powerhouses of Bright Moon City north, leaving only a few Level 5 New Humans stationed in the city. But given Su Sigui’s notoriety, no one dared to make trouble.

On Jin Ye’s side, a Level 5 New Human approached him, frowning. "Jin Ye boss, aren’t we stopping them?" he asked, watching the retreating figure of the Red General.

"No, let them leave..." Jin Ye spoke five words then fell silent again. He was still unsure if what the Red General had said was true, but his long experience in this post-apocalyptic world told him it was better not to stir up trouble. Whether true or false, he had at least avoided a potential problem. A Level 7 New Human was enough to keep him vigilant.

"That will do. Have someone clean up around here. From today, the United District is ours."

"Yes!" The excitement was evident on the face of the powerhouse next to him, who then asked, "Jin Ye boss, if the mercenaries guild is renamed from today, how should we deal with this mission’s employer?"

Jin Ye glanced at him, this man being his confidant.

"Are you thinking of making a move on him?"

"Yes, since we’re no longer the mercenaries guild, might as well kill that employer. Maybe we’ll even get more Yajin!"

As he spoke, his excitement built up, completely unaware of the intensifying murderous intent in Jin Ye’s eyes!
