Chapter 933: Chapter 589 "I Have a Plan" "No, You Don’t

It must be said that Qiu Wentian, though seemingly young, had combat experience that was even on par with Li Changhe, who was known as a general.

She was originally a girl from an ordinary family, with a strict father and a kind mother. Aside from being a bit self-conscious about her short stature, which made her appear too youthful, she had no other complaints.

One afternoon, while napping, she was unwittingly drawn into a real-world task, thus becoming a player.

Afterward, with her low level, she accidentally got involved in a war scenario and survived. She acquired the Title Skill, Northern Ocean Ship-Slicer.

She then joined the player organization [Nine Provinces Small Sword].

In fact, [Nine Provinces Small Sword] had some similarities with [General Mountain], both having close relationships with the officials.

Consequently, Qiu Wentian attracted the attention of the Extraordinary Association, and one Confucian Extraordinary begged to have Qiu Wentian accept him as her master.

"I should never have agreed to him!" Qiu Wentian said with considerable irritation: "That old man deceived me! Otherwise, I should have developed earlier!"

Well... you’ve only been a Confucian disciple for a few months, and it hasn’t had much impact.

Li Changhe felt like laughing, but since she was a teammate who had helped him, he gritted his teeth and refrained from voicing his mockery.

"Are you thinking about something very rude?" Qiu Wentian asked, fixing her gaze on Li Changhe.

"No!" Li Changhe responded firmly: "It’s all that old man’s fault!"

"That’s right, it’s all his fault!"

As they continued to talk, Li Changhe also learned that Qiu Wentian had already participated in several war scenarios before reaching LV10.

No wonder her fighting spirit was so sharp, even for Li Changhe himself.

The wars he had taken part in were only the plague, Great Tang, and disaster fog; the elf instance didn’t even count.

Among them, the only one that could truly be considered high-intensity warfare was the one at Great Tang.

In such war instances filled with Extraordinary powers, an individual’s strength became less critical.

Any strong figure thrown into the battlefield, this meat grinder, could possibly perish.

Many players stronger than Li Changhe were at the time were piled up dead by that steel torrent.

Even someone like Xue Shen had to wait until all the combat power around Li Changhe was tied up before he could face Li Changhe in a one-on-one decisive battle.

Therefore, the members of the several teams from the Great Wall that focused on war scenarios were all skilled fighters, hardened by countless hardships amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Usually, they would not make a move lightly.

And it was understandable that Qiu Wentian’s fighting spirit was so dominant.

They were all hardened killers.

During the period of waiting for Yanyun Middle School to finish classes, the two of them hid in a small alley, discussing each other’s combat styles and experiences, both gaining quite a few improvements.

During this time, Li Changhe also made contact with Mr. All-known Pan Ke.

He had met up with the fish pond owner and, using the Extraordinary Association’s special means of contact, had stolen ample information from the association of this era. As for whether this era’s Extraordinary Association would suspect why there were two Mr. All-knowns, that was not within their considerations.

"It took a bit of effort, but I generally have a clear understanding now," explained Mr. All-known Pan Ke in [Friends], "First, a month ago, a member of the Extraordinary Association accidentally discovered an unfamiliar team entering the ruins of the Ancient Dian Country within the Yunnan region. At first, the association did not care, thinking it was some archaeological team. But later, members noticed that foreign Transcendents had quietly entered Hua Country and secretively went to the ruins. The association then started an investigation and study. They even clashed with those foreign Transcendents, and both sides suffered injuries. Afterwards, the association discovered that the team found an ancient tomb hidden at the bottom of a lake in the ruins. According to literature analysis, it should be the grave of a Qi Practitioner. Those foreign Transcendents intended to steal the corpse of this Qi Practitioner."

"A Transcendent’s tomb? They’re going through all this trouble just to rob a grave? Tomb robbing aside, what’s up with stealing a corpse?" Li Changhe sneered, "Is there someone surnamed Wu or Zhang in there?"

"Cut it out, Old Li, stop interrupting. In short, the association continued its investigation and found that the Qi Practitioner had spent his life in pursuit of the elixir of life and planned to break through to become a Heaven-level Transcendent, reaching the legendary state of Unity of Heaven and Man," Mr. All-known interrupted Li Changhe’s sneer and explained, "In the end, of course, he was unsuccessful and met with the fate of dying and vanishing. But the information the association has is that those guys have somehow received news. It’s said that in the last moment before his death, the Qi Practitioner truly ascended to the Heavenly Road, only a step away from the Unity of Heaven and Man. That’s why they went to such great lengths to steal the predecessor’s corpse for research."

"Unity of Heaven and Man... that’s what we call divine creatures, right?" Li Changhe contemplated in his heart, the black road that he saw emerge in the void when he briefly ascended to demigod status, that is the so-called Heavenly Road?

So Haven Rank Transcendents are actually divine creatures promoted by extraordinary means, huh? Could it mean he, as an Extraordinary Soldier, might also try to step into the second Divinity?

When the time comes, he would make a trip to Shuchuan and ask Ancestor Chiyou if the path of an Extraordinary Soldier can be continued. Other Transcendent ancestors might no longer be around, but Ancestor Chiyou was awakened by Li Changhe himself. He should know more.

"So..."

"So, whether that Qi Practitioner achieved Heaven-level or not, our association will not allow his remains to be desecrated," said Mr. All-known, "And those foreign Transcendents are not to be taken lightly, with many among them being particularly ruthless. Rather than taking this lightly, the association decided to use this as an opportunity to assert dominance, convening thirteen renowned and powerful Transcendents, exterminating that group entirely!"

To assert dominance, huh, Li Changhe understood this principle. The Hua Country Extraordinary Association also planned to use this opportunity to deter those with malicious intentions.

"But as a result, all thirteen strong individuals died in Yanyun. Are the foreign Transcendents that strong?" Li Changhe knew their outcome. The attempt to assert dominance was a failure.

"That’s impossible. I have one hundred percent trust in the association’s strength," Mr. All-known responded, "There must have been some other accident! I’m now starting to try to connect with this era’s Mr. All-known, how about you on your end?"

"Very soon, if all goes well, Qiu Wentian and I will be able to rejoin the team tonight," Li Changhe looked up at the sky, as the sun set in the west.

As the sun gradually went down, the school bell signaling the end of the day rang out from Yanyun Middle School.

"Old Li, I know you really hate those guys, but I hope you don’t go overboard. Just finish them and don’t make too big a scene."

"I’ve got it under control, it won’t affect the task."

As he watched Li Changhe’s response, Mr. All-known couldn’t help but recall the news from the Great Wall Database regarding the players from Great Tang.

According to the reports, those Great Tang players wearing steam armor didn’t stop at just killing their enemy. They also smeared their enemy’s remains on the walls.

If they were in the desert or wilderness where there were no buildings or walls, they would construct a wall themselves and then smear the enemy on it.

Some players from Great Tang couldn’t bear it, vomiting while smearing, but they didn’t stop.

What persistence. It is said that it was an order from the Tian Ce General himself.

Seeing Li Changhe’s assurance, Mr. All-known couldn’t help but sigh, "No, you don’t."
