Galaxy Shattering Blade c7

Chapter 7: Want to Go Somewhere?

Faraway, on the rooftop of an apartment.

“Heh, that Xiao Shiyuan isn’t too stupid, at least he knows he should strike when Lin Feng is alone.” Lewd Snake leaned on a railing as he laughed comfortably.

“This isn’t called stupid? If it were me, I’d have ambushed him long ago.” With his arms crossed on his chest, Monkey said with a snort.

Lewd Snake sneered, “He’s the strongest at our Inst.i.tute, obviously he has to act in a manner befitting his strength.”

“So what if he’s the strongest,” said Monkey as he laughed coldly, full of disdain, “he still has to obediently listen to us.”

Lewd Snake rubbed his palms with a vulgar look on his face, “Once this guy gets rid of Lin Feng and then that mutt, Yang Li…hehe, w.a.n.g Qian will be ours. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Don’t be fooled by that pure innocent look she has on usually, she’s pretty wild in bed!”

Monkey shook his head speechlessly, then mockingly said, “You sure are addicted to peeping.”

Lewd Snake snickered. Suddenly his beady eyes lit up and he shouted in a hurry, “Look, it’s starting!”

Lightsabre versus lightning rod!

The Inst.i.tute’s former number one genius against the Inst.i.tute’s current strongest!

Xiao Shiyuan took the advantage of attacking first; 500 volts of electricity accompanied with layers upon layers of the rod’s afterimages. In an instant, it looked as if countless electric snakes with red tongues flicking were heading straight for him. Brain region depth: 9.80%, Xiao Shiyuan’s reputation was justified. Just by merely reaching 2nd rank in the realm of rod arts, he was unstoppable at the Inst.i.tute.

However…

This time, his opponent was Lin Feng, who had already reached the 2nd rank in the realm of blade arts three years ago.

“D8 Neo-Martial Arts: Sunset Lightblade, 20%.” Lin Feng suddenly took a step forward. Compared to the stern look on Xiao Shiyuan’s face, this strike was concise, direct, and natural. The lightsabre slashed down from the right with a perfectly straight streak, it was almost as if the entire s.p.a.ce could be sliced into two right angled triangles.

In a split second, all the images of Xiao Shiyuan’s rod disappeared. Despite the fact that the energy from the lightning rod was not inferior to that of the white lightsabre, Xiao Shiyuan still instantly fell behind from that collision.

“How can that be?!” Having been forced back in one move, Xiao Shiyuan was bewildered. The two hands gripping the lightning rod trembled slightly.

That was practically one of his strongest attacks, and on top of that, he held the advantage of a preemptive strike. Yet, let alone gain an advantage… On the contrary he was suppressed by Lin Feng.

Impossible!

How could this be possible?!

It wasn’t only Xiao Shiyuan who was shocked.

The two people on the faraway rooftop who were originally calm and composed were also currently stupefied.

“W-wasn’t he suffering from genetic damage?” stammered Lewd Snake.

“How could Lin Feng still use neo-martial arts?!” Monkey was dumbstruck and his face was deathly pale.

Genetic damage?

That was all unfounded rumours that was being spread outside.

Indeed, Lin Feng never denied it, but… he also never admitted it before.

There are some things that don’t warrant an explanation.

“Zheng!” The brightness of the lightsabre increased further. Lin Feng’s calm face became a bit more serious. He took one step and leapt, just like a vigourous cheetah; the burst of speed surprised even Lin Feng. His arms vibrated and in an instant, from the lightsabre a cross-shaped blade of light was formed.

“Sunset Lightblade, 50%!” Lin Feng’s eyes flickered.

Suddenly, a gigantic ‘X’ appeared from out of the void with a bang. Xiao Shiyuan’s face became incomparably pale.

“E3 Neo-Martial Arts: Woven Iron Wall, 100%!” Xiao Shiyuan shouted as he clenched his teeth. Rays of lightning surged forth, and in quickly formed an impenetrable iron wall in front of him. From attack to defense, all of this happened in a split second. There was no need to say any more about the strength from both sides, and in the next instant——

Chi! Peng! ~ Xiao Shiyuan’s eyes bulged, and his heart seemed to have stopped beating.

The impenetrable iron wall in front instantly collapsed. There was only a dazzling, white light that was as bright as day, and a gigantic impact striking his chest.

“Pu!” The lightning rod in his hands flew out, and Xiao Shiyuan landed heavily on the ground.

Hua! A figure appeared instantly.

“Zi!” ~ The lightsabre was placed across Xiao Shiyuan’s neck. Lin Feng looked down on the youth who also born impoverished like himself. Just by applying a bit of force from the lightsabre and he would become a corpse. He, was never his enemy. It can’t be said that they had any interactions at school, but there was definitely not any enmity,

Pa! The blade of light disappeared, and the lightsabre in Lin Feng’s hand returned to its cylindrical metal shape.

“Go.” Lin Feng said emotionlessly.

Xiao Shiyuan stared blankly, his eyes were filled with struggle and remorse, and his left fist trembled.

“Sorry!” He had one hand holding onto his chest, while his right hand drooped on the side. Xiao Shiyuan lowered his head, not daring to look Lin Feng in the eye, walked unsteadily towards the lightning rod, picking it up and disappearing into the dark alleyway. Staring at the lonely, leaving figure, Lin Feng’s gaze was sharp. He sighed in his heart.

He too, was a commoner.

Yet, he was even more unfortunate than himself. His parents died early on, and his only relative was an even younger brother who was just 4 years old. It was almost time to graduate and enter into Crown Elite Inst.i.tute; it was finally time he made something of himself. What could’ve forced a genius to take such a huge risk, even at the cost of his own future, to come and kill him?

Lin Feng was very clear.

Because, they were the same kind of people.

On the rooftop of an apartment faraway.

“He lost, Xiao Shiyuan actually lost?” Lewd Snake was completely petrified, his eyes were opened wide from the incredible shock.

“He lost, but we still haven’t!” Monkey had a sinister look in his eyes. The crystalline watch on his left hand was pointed at the distant location where Lin Feng was, and with a menacing voice he said, “As long as Lin Feng kills Xiao Shiyuan, he would violate one of the Inst.i.tute’s precepts against killing fellow students. Then, once we hand this video evidence over to the inst.i.tute, he’s a deadman!”

“Right, right, right!” said Lewd Snake, repeatedly, finding new hope.

“Kill! Why aren’t you killing??!!” Monkey was enraged, he wished he could help Lin Feng with that extra strike.

Lewd Snake held in his breath, his chest raising up and down quickly. But very quickly, the expression on his and Monkey’s face changed from hopeful to despair——

Because, Lin Feng had let Xiao Shiyuan go just like that.

“d.a.m.n it!” Monkey was furious and began to beat on the railings, “That spineless b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” A sharp glint flashed across his eyes, grinding on his teeth, Monkey said, “You won’t kill, we’ll help you kill! With this video, Lin Feng, even if you jumped into the Yellow River you wouldn’t be able to wash yourself clean![1] Prison is waiting for you!”

At that moment——

Ta! Ta! Ta! Lewd Snake’s retreated backwards with a look of shock and fear on his face. His complexion was deathly pale, like he had just seen a demon.

“What’s up with you?” Monkey was in a foul mood.

“H-he…” Lewd Snake pointed at the distant, and full of horror he said, “He looked like he saw me.”

“Who saw you?” Monkey had a look of impatience on his face, but very quickly he reacted, with his eyes opened wide he grabbed onto Lewd Snake and nervously said, “You’re saying Lin Feng saw you? With this distance, how could he possibly see us?! Ridiculous!!”

Be that as it may, Monkey’s lips still turned pale and his mind was a nervous mess. In a flurry, he activated the crystalline watch on his left hand.

“Zi~~” The light projection materialised and on the rooftop a brown hovercar appeared.

“Go!” Monkey shrieked, and directly jumped inside the hovercar. Lewd Snake seemingly awaken from a dream also quickly entered inside. The hovercar instantly turned on, but Monkey and Lewd Snake’s eyes were bulging, looking extremely aghast. In front of them was the figure they didn’t want to see the most, perfectly blocking their exit.

“Want to go somewhere?” Lin Feng said indifferently, his eye flickering with a sharp glint.

Chi! Genetic energy rushed into the metal body, and a lightsabre was formed in an instant— releasing a bright, white light, full of killing intent.

As if hearing the voice of the grim reaper, Monkey and Lewd Snake were completely at a loss.

They basically had no idea Lin Feng would come this fast, and even more, they had no idea that Lin Feng’s strength would be this horrifying. Xiao Shiyuan, known as the Inst.i.tute’s strongest, actually couldn’t even block two moves from Lin Feng and completely lost.

Flee!

Lin Feng’s appearance proved that this incident has already been exposed.

Monkey clenched his teeth and made a decision on the spot, activating the hovercar, he reversed and smashed apart the railings. At this moment, there was no time to take things into consideration. Monkey had a resolute look in his eyes. In mid-air there was no leverage, as long as they can escape fast enough, Lin Feng would have no way of catching up.

But…

“D8 Neo-Martial Arts: Sunset Lightblade, 50%.” Lin Feng’s eyes flickered radiantly, and in the instant that the hovercar was activated, he had already brandished his lightsabre.

A great amount of genetic energy flowed in, the brightness of the lightsabre greatly increased. Lin Feng’s arms vibrated and in a split second, an enormous ‘X’ condensed with an astonishing amount of laser energy was formed. The hovercar was directly sliced apart, causing the magnetic energy to explode instantly.

Bang! Peng! Boom!!

The hovercar exploded into pieces in mid-air. Monkey and Lewd Snake’s mournful wailing could be heard as they suddenly fell down from 30 metres in the air.

At the same time, Lin Feng also leapt up and softly landed on some water pipes, and slowly descended them.

Bang! Bang!

Two loud noises, as Monkey and Lewd Snake created two large holes on a plot of gra.s.s. Although the two had elemental battle suits to protect them, but it was hard to form a complete defense within the hovercar. The remaining energy from the lightsabre, the powerful blast from the magnetic explosion, and the immense momentum from a 30 metre freefall—the three added together was not something a single elemental battle suit could resist against.

“Ta!” Lin Feng, with a burning gaze, landed gracefully. 

Lewd Snake’s neck was strangely twisted, having been dead for a while now. Monkey’s body, however, was still trembling and twitching.

Chi! ~ A cold streak was left behind by the lightsabre. Lin Feng directly ended Monkey’s life. His pair of eyes were still full of hate and unwillingness, but there was no more spirit in them.

“When you cut the weeds, you have to get rid of the roots; or else there’d be no end to the troubles.” Lin Feng had always kept his brother’s instructions in mind. Bending over, he took off the watch on Monkey’s arm and activated it. Instantly, the watch emitted countless beams of lights, forming a three-dimensional projection, Lin Feng’s eyes were clear, the projection displayed the fierce battle he had with Xiao Shiyuang.

“Sure enough, it was a thorough plan.” Genetic energy flashed in Lin Feng’s left hand. ‘Pa’ The watch was directly crushed.

Peng! He brandished the lightsabre in his right hand and the watch on Lewd Snake’s left hand was also destroyed. All the evidence was eliminated. Lin Feng’s gaze fell on the two people’s elemental battle suits. Despite suffering such intense attacks, there was only a bit of damage, truly worthy of a technological product more precious than genetic fluid.

But, he couldn’t take it.

Elemental battle suits each have a unique computer code on them, so taking them would just be a headache.

“The explosion from the hovercar was too loud, I’m sure this place will be discovered very soon.” Lin Feng muttered as he looked all around. Good thing this was the Commoner District. There were no Security Guards patrolling, and definitely no surveillance satellites here. If that wasn’t the case, it would get really troublesome, but at the moment…

There was no need to be worried.

Having lived in the Commoner District since he was little, Lin Feng was far too familiar with the circ.u.mstances in the place—he understood it far too well.

Someone died?

Within the chaotic Commoner District, that isn’t even news.

Putting away the lightsabre, Lin Feng’s figure slowly disappeared into the region shrouded by darkness.
