Urban God-level Youth
Chapter 891 - 891: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

"Take some people and pay a visit to those empire leaders," Qin Hao said to Leng Xuan.

Leng Xuan's expression froze: "Leader, how should we pay them a visit? Should we kill them all?"

With the strength of the Shadow Guards, killing those empire leaders wouldn't be difficult, but if he did, he likely wouldn't be able to return to the Galaxy Federation Republic.

The entire galaxy would probably descend into chaos.

He said, "Just teach them a lesson."

Leng Xuan went out. In the luxurious suite where Sky Wolf Empire leader Duanmu Citian resided, he was discussing something with Lan Antai and the dark empire leader.

Suddenly, an alarm sounded. Before the three could react, a dark-clad figure appeared in the room.

The three leaders instantly covered themselves with their mechas, warily eyeing the shadow.

Who is this? What is he here for?

Meanwhile, the sound of rushing guards could be heard outside. The three leaders inside were crucial; if something happened, the galaxy would be in turmoil.

The Shadow Guard made his move. The three leaders, Duanmu Citian, couldn't just sit back and do nothing; they tried to resist.

But how could they fend off a B-grade mecha? In a second, the three leaders were kicked heavily against the wall by the Shadow Guard.

Feeling the strength of this black-clad figure, Duanmu Citian's face changed drastically. A B-grade mecha from the Galaxy Federation Republic? What is Qin Hao trying to do?

Does he think the assassin tonight was sent by us?

"Bang bang"

The Shadow Guard rushed at the three, throwing a barrage of punches and kicks, though avoiding fatal blows. Soon, guards rushed in, seeing their leaders in the hands of the enemy and dared not make any rash moves.

After the beating, the Shadow Guard activated the super-luminance propulsion device and charged out, scattering anyone at the door, killing them instantly.

This scene played out similarly in other rooms, except for the Maya Empire, Moon Mist Empire, and Tanglong Empire; the other empires were not spared.

This matter did not spread out, as it concerned the empire leaders' prestige, and no one would willingly publicize it.

They knew Qin Hao was retaliating for the assassination attempt, though he didn't know who exactly was behind it, he was sure it was one or more of the eight major empires.

The next morning, Su Anna arrived outside Qin Hao's room: "Mr. Qin, my mother wants to see you."

Qin Hao nodded slightly: "Alright, I'll be right there."

He and Su Anna left the room. On the way, Su Anna hesitated and then asked, "What were you doing with my mother the other day? Why did it take so long?"

That day, she stayed in the room, at least for more than an hour, wondering what business required such a long discussion outside.

Qin Hao looked at her with a faint smile: "What do you think?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't be asking you, Mr. Qin," Su Anna replied.

Qin Hao: "It's better if you don't know this."

...

Soon, Qin Hao arrived at Queen Maya's room. Su Anna didn't follow him inside.

Qin Hao hesitated for a moment before sitting beside Queen Maya, looking at her graceful figure and delicate face. Queen Maya glanced at him but said nothing more.

"Is there a reason you called me here?"

Queen Maya said, "Don't you want to know who tried to kill you yesterday?"

"Do you know?" Qin Hao turned to look at her.

Queen Maya activated the virtual imaging system and said, "According to our investigation in the Maya Empire, the ones behind this are from the Bright Empire."

"Bright Empire?" Qin Hao looked at the information on the virtual imaging system.

Queen Maya said, "The galaxy may seem peaceful, but there's actually much undercurrent. Many people want to see chaos, especially the Bright Empire and a few countries from the Free Interstellar Federation."

Qin Hao didn't know much about those empires and couldn't find much information about them online. Certain information couldn't be obtained from the internet.

"Many countries want to see chaos in the galaxy?" Qin Hao asked, surprised.

Queen Maya nodded: "The Bright Empire has a vast religious system called the Bright Sect. They want to spread the Bright Sect across the galaxy, but they're currently rejected by various empires. The Free Interstellar Federation Republic always dreams of liberating the entire galaxy and becoming its overlord. Every citizen of the dark empire is a fanatic invader, educated as such for hundreds of years, harboring the ambition to dominate the galaxy for a long time."

As Qin Hao listened to Queen Maya, he felt he was re-learning about these empires. None of them seemed friendly; he might have antagonized them all last night.

Queen Maya continued: "Especially the dark empire. Located near the northern abyssal region, the abyss is rich in energy baryte and rare minerals. After years of accumulation, the dark empire has become quite terrifying."

Qin Hao asked, "Northern abyss? What kind of place is that?"

Queen Maya said, "It's similar to the Southern Wilderness Star System but appears like an abyss, deep and unfathomable. Aircrafts entering rarely come out. Many countries have investigated it but haven't obtained useful information. No one knows how deep the abyss goes or what it connects to."

Qin Hao realized he knew too little about the galaxy. With countless countries, he couldn't understand them all, let alone other information.

After discussing the matter, Qin Hao looked at Queen Maya and grinned mischievously: "Did you call me here to handle some serious business?"

Queen Maya replied seriously: "I'm just informing you about the mastermind behind yesterday's incident."

...

About an hour and a half later, the sounds in the bedroom ceased.

Qin Hao, with a smile on his face, said: "I have to leave now, or it will arouse suspicion."

"Are you afraid of suspicion?" Queen Maya didn't move and spoke calmly.

Qin Hao: "I'm not afraid. Are you?"

...

Time passed day by day. Ten days later, although Qin Hao knew the Bright Empire was behind it, he took no action. It wasn't the right time.
