Chapter 614: Chapter 485 Senior Brother
On the ground, Qiu Boyun had already arrived and joined forces with Wang Lei and the other team members.
There were nearly ten Shining Star level Star Beasts here.
Including Qiu Boyun, the City Guard had a total of six Shining Star levels.
However, Qiu Boyun had an Epic-grade Soul Card and impressive strength. After he arrived, the battle stabilized slightly.
“Wind and Thunder Break!”
Vice Captain Wang Lei’s saber was enveloped in wind and thunder. He swiftly cut through a Shining Star level Silver-armored Lizard.
“Zzz! Zzz!”
Purple lightning surged out. The Silver-armored Lizard was sliced in half instantly!
“Vice Captain Wang, impressive!” cheered a few team members nearby.
Wang Lei slightly panted as he held his long saber. Although it consumed a lot of his energy, he was relieved that the Thunder Saber had slain the Silver-armored Lizard.
Qiu Boyun said solemnly, “Wang Lei, stay alert. Be careful!”
Qiu Boyun still felt uneasy. The scouts had reported that there was also an Epic-grade Golden Sinew Iron Bone Wild Divine Bear in front.
However, aside from the two Iron-Backed Grey Bears in the field, they hadn’t seen the Golden Sinew Iron Bone Wild Divine Bear yet.
If the scouts weren’t mistaken, then the Wild Divine Bear must be hiding, waiting to strike.
Suddenly, as an Earth Element Star Card Master, Qiu Boyun sensed a slight change underground…
Wang Lei laughed, “It’s okay, Captain Qiu…”
“Dodge quickly!” Qiu Boyun shouted.
Almost at the same moment, earth and rocks exploded behind Wang Lei. A giant black bear suddenly burst out, landing a fierce punch on Wang Lei’s back, who was exhausted from killing the Silver-armored Lizard and had let his guard down.
Upon hearing Qiu Boyun’s warning, Wang Lei immediately activated his Thunder Shield.
However, the giant black bear’s punch, seemingly imbued with immense force, shattered the Thunder Shield and struck Wang Lei’s back.
“Boom!” With a loud noise, Wang Lei spat out a mouthful of blood and was thrown into the air, severely injured.
“Vice Captain Wang!” The crowd exclaimed in shock.
Qiu Boyun’s heart sank, but he couldn’t afford to worry about Wang Lei. He quickly turned his attention to the giant black bear.
“Golden Sinew Iron Bone Wild Divine Bear!”
With the appearance of the Wild Divine Bear, the other Star Beasts, especially the two Iron-Backed Grey Bears, immediately roared with increased momentum, pressing Qiu Boyun’s team into a tight corner. Even Qiu Boyun was held back by the attacking Crack Earth Lion and Red Scale Strange Monkey.
The Wild Divine Bear took a step forward, charging at the critically injured Wang Lei with brutal force, intending to kill him in one strike.
Qiu Boyun couldn’t let it succeed. Forming a seal, yellow light flashed around him as Star Power surged.
“Blossom of Rock Flower!”
Thick Earth Element energy burst from Qiu Boyun like a blooming rock flower, pushing back the two Star Beasts in front of him. Even the Wild Divine Bear’s speed was significantly reduced by the powerful Earth Element impact, making it hard to move.
Dragging his large saber, Qiu Boyun charged towards the Wild Divine Bear.
With each step, his saber absorbed Earth Qi from the ground, forming yellow energy rings on the blade, increasing its power.
By the time Qiu Boyun reached the Wild Divine Bear, his saber was wrapped with six yellow rings!
“Energy Drawing Saber Dragging Slash!”
Qiu Boyun lifted his long saber and slashed at the Wild Divine Bear, producing metallic clanging sounds.
As expected of the Golden Sinew Iron Bone Wild Divine Bear, with both Gold and Earth attributes, its defense was astounding.
However, Qiu Boyun’s Energy Drawing Saber Dragging Slash, an Epic Skill with the boost of six energy rings, still managed to tear open a long wound on the bear’s chest, causing a large amount of blood to flow out.
“Roar!!”
Suffering such a blow enraged the Wild Divine Bear, sending it into a berserk state, its eyes red as its Star Power turned a deep brown.
The berserk state was a common talent among bear species. Especially for the Epic-grade Golden Sinew Silver Bone Wild Divine Bear.
The wound inflicted by Qiu Boyun’s saber healed rapidly under the berserk-induced strong constitution.
Qiu Boyun’s face darkened. “Damn! If only my Energy Drawing Saber Dragging Slash were perfected. With nine layers of Earth Qi, even the Golden Sinew Iron Bone would be slashed in two!”
The thick deep brown energy swirled around them, breaking free from the constraints of the Blossom of Rock Flower. The Wild Divine Bear glared angrily at Qiu Boyun.
“Boom!!”
Violent killing intent and terrifying pressure overwhelmed Qiu Boyun, feeling like a thousand-pound force crushed him. His eyes widened, and his limbs went cold.
Epic Skill, Anger Intimidation!
Qiu Boyun’s Star Power surged to resist the intense mental pressure.
But the next moment, the Wild Divine Bear moved.
Qiu Boyun shouted and stepped forward to confront it.
However, unexpectedly, the Wild Divine Bear ignored Qiu Boyun and rushed past him, heading straight for the injured Wang Lei!
Qiu Boyun’s heart skipped a beat. “Not good!”
The surrounding City Guard members’ faces turned pale.
“Vice Captain Wang, watch out!”
“Dodge quickly!”
“…”
Wang Lei’s spine had been fractured by the Wild Divine Bear’s punch. He tried to get up, but the excruciating pain made him break into a cold sweat, his face turning pale.
The Wild Divine Bear charged at him fiercely. At the critical moment, a deep black line suddenly slashed across the bear’s back.
In an instant, blood spurted out. The Wild Divine Bear, heavily injured by Qiu Boyun’s powerful blow, was almost cut in half by the thin black line!
“Roar?!”
The Wild Divine Bear howled in pain, its blood-red eyes filled with rage and shock, seeking its attacker.
But as it turned, it saw seven or eight dark lines with ominous energy surrounding it.
The Wild Divine Bear’s pupils shrank.
With a flash of dark light, the Wild Divine Bear couldn’t even scream before being sliced into dozens of pieces by the black lines!
“What… is this?!”
Captain Qiu, Wang Lei, and the other City Guard members all widened their eyes, watching in disbelief as the Wild Divine Bear turned into a pile of flesh!
And it didn’t stop. Black lines continued appearing around them.
Level Three or Shining Star level, all were equal under these lines.
None of the Star Beasts had any resistance, being slaughtered in swathes!
All around, the City Guard warriors felt the pressure rapidly decrease. Looking around in confusion, they saw most of the Star Beasts were dead!
“Captain Qiu… up there!”
Soon, a Shining Star level team member noticed a black figure in the sky.
“I see it!”
Qiu Boyun gazed at the figure high above, taking deep breaths in shock. This person’s power was incredible!
Could it be a passing Radiant Moon expert?
At that moment, his communication talisman rang at his waist.
Qiu Boyun checked and saw it was Zhao Cong. He answered the call immediately.
Zhao Cong’s excited voice came through. “Captain Qiu, an expert from the education bureau is here…”
Before Zhao Cong finished, Qiu Boyun saw a blue light approaching rapidly from the sky.
“Only one?” Qiu Boyun frowned slightly as he saw only one person.
The blue light quickly landed in front of him, revealing a handsome man in a black robe.
Recognizing the man, Qiu Boyun’s pupils shrank, and he quickly stepped forward to salute.
“Vice Director Wang, I didn’t expect you to come personally!”
It was Wang Haiping, the former Guangchuan Municipal Education Bureau Director.
Over a year ago, he had advanced to Radiant Moon and was transferred to the Qingye Municipal Education Bureau. A month ago, he was appointed as the Vice Director of the Qingye Municipal Education Bureau!
“The Star Beast riot is no small matter. I’m here because this place is close to the city.” Wang Haiping surveyed the battlefield, somewhat surprised. “It seems you were about to finish here?”
Qiu Boyun looked odd. “We weren’t about to finish. It was very dangerous. A master appeared out of nowhere… there.”
Wang Haiping had already noticed. Following Qiu Boyun’s gesture, he looked up and saw the figure.
This figure seemed familiar…
As Wang Haiping pondered, the person in the sky killed the last Gold level Star Beast. With a flash of silver light, he suddenly appeared before them.
“Senior Brother Wang, long time no see.” The newcomer put away his Vermilion Long Saber, smiling. “Congratulations on entering Radiant Moon…”
Seeing the silver-eyed youth, Wang Haiping’s pupils widened, and unexpected joy filled his eyes.
“Junior Brother Su, it’s you!”
…
At the Qingye Municipal Education Bureau, Su Yuan sat quietly, waiting.
Although Wang Haiping’s position had changed, his secretary was still the familiar, beautiful woman.
White shirt, tight skirt, and sheer black stockings. Her black hair cascaded naturally over her shoulders.
If Su Yuan remembered correctly, her name was Xiao Yu.
At a glance, Su Yuan noticed her body was brimming with Star Power, indicating she had reached the Gold Limit and was refining her Star Power!
Xiao Yu prepared some tea and respectfully brought it to Su Yuan. “Mr. Su, please enjoy.”
“Thank you.” Su Yuan took the cup and sipped casually.
Xiao Yu stood nearby, ready for any orders.
As she faced Su Yuan, her heart was filled with anxiety and nervousness.
Xiao Yu clearly remembered what Wang Haiping said a month ago when he became Vice Director.
“My Junior Brother Su is truly remarkable…”
There was no doubt that although Wang Haiping had stepped into Radiant Moon, securing the position of the Vice Director must be related to the man before her.
Xiao Yu furtively observed Su Yuan. In less than three years, it was hard to imagine he had grown from a student in a third-level city to someone who could influence Wang Haiping’s promotion!
“How is my senior brother lately?” Su Yuan asked casually.
“He’s well. He advanced to Radiant Moon over a year ago and was transferred to Qingye. Last month, he was made the Vice Director of Qingye.”
When Su Yuan last met Wang Haiping, Wang Haiping had mentioned his confidence in advancing to Radiant Moon, so Su Yuan wasn’t surprised.
But being appointed Vice Director a month ago… that was shortly after he became a Star Lord himself.
Su Yuan thought for a moment, understanding the situation, and nodded without further comment.
As a Sky Patrol Star Lord, comparing his strength to a Radiant Moon was hard to say.
But in terms of status, he was on par with a Sky Patrol Envoy, no less than a regional Radiant Moon.
It made sense for Wang Haiping to benefit.
