Chapter 170: Chapter 170
What had been activated now was only the first layer of the War God physique.
The first layer was the War God Xingtian’s martial soul. At the moment, only a single Battle Axe had been condensed.
To condense the remaining Xingtian martial souls, a massive amount of Bloodline Power or heaven-sent treasures was required for successful consolidation.
Just the Xingtian Battle Axe alone, considering Zhang Xiaohao’s current realm,
could only be used once a day, and each time for no more than one minute.
If he exceeded this duration, Zhang Xiaohao would deplete his own Bloodline Power if he used it again.
Should the Bloodline Power be severely exhausted, then the fun would really begin.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Zhang Xiaohao would never use it.
"Brother-in-law, what are you doing? What are you daydreaming about?" Cheng Qingsu said.
"Hehe, it’s nothing, let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Mhm," Cheng Qingsu nodded.
Zhang Xiaohao tore off the Human Skin Mask and left with Cheng Qingsu, choosing a direction to go.
On the boundless international waters of M country, waves surged violently. Wave after wave crashed upon the sea’s surface, towering over the one before.
Just then, a blood-red colossal object fell from the sky and smashed into the waters of the high seas.
A tremendous wave was raised.
"Damn it! I don’t care who you are! Dare to steal my inheritance, I swear! Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I will tear you apart!" the blood-red giant bellowed in anger.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
Suddenly, the sound of massive waves slicing through the water could be heard all around as gigantic creatures, with their gaping maws wide open, charged towards the blood-red giant.
"Cursed beasts! You dare to bully me, go to hell!" the blood-red giant roared furiously.
His blood-red fists pounded out, striking wildly, hitting the sharks coming at him, venting all the anger within...
"Heavenly King covers the tiger!"
"A pagoda subdues river demons!"
"I have two guns! One is called ’hang’, and the other ’ah’!"
"Cheats and cheats, just keep on yelling ’ah’!"
The secret code was correct, and the tightly shut door opened.
"Boss, you’re finally back. I thought those guys from Blood Bat Castle had caught you," Lei Kai said with a smile upon seeing Zhang Xiaohao.
"Get lost! You think a bunch of dead bats can keep me? Then wouldn’t the words ’War God’ have to be written backwards?" Zhang Xiaohao said.
"Come inside and talk," Lei Kai said.
"Yeah," Zhang Xiaohao entered with Cheng Qingsu.
Lei Kai looked outside the door to make sure no one was following and closed it.
He led Zhang Xiaohao into the room and pressed his palm against the wall.
A huge secret passage was revealed in the room.
Zhang Xiaohao led Cheng Qingsu down the passage, with Lei Kai quickly following behind.
The three of them had just descended when the secret passage quickly closed behind them.
Following the stairs, the trio entered the underground base.
"Ah! Qingsu, you’re finally back. I’ve missed you to death." Seeing Cheng Qingsu, Chen Liyong let out an excited scream and rushed towards him.
Zhang Xiaohao chuckled and led Lei Kai into the adjacent room.
In the room, there was a huge surveillance screen.
Everything within a ten-mile radius was displayed on it.
Zhang Xiaohao sat down on the genuine leather sofa, casually picked up a bottle of ’69 Lafite red wine from the coffee table, poured a glass, and downed it in one go.
"Ah! Boss, that’s ’69 Lafite you’re drinking! I went through a lot of trouble to get that. You’re wasting it drinking like that!" Lei Kai expressed his distress.
"Life’s been treating you well, huh? Drinking ’69 Lafite, not too shabby!" Zhang Xiaohao teased.
"Hehe, it’s all thanks to your blessings, boss! With you looking out for us from above, our brothers accomplish missions with twice the result and half the effort!" Lei Kai said with a smile.
He poured himself a glass of red wine, gently swirled it, and began to taste it with elegance.
"Tell me, what happened tonight?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"Do you really not know, Boss?" Lei Kai replied in surprise.
"Cut the crap! You know why I went out," Zhang Xiaohao retorted impatiently.
"Great things happened at the Holy Angel Bar tonight! Not only was it fully locked down, but I heard those young masters and mistresses attending the party were attacked by a mysterious organization. An all-out massacre ensued, and a big fire almost burned the Holy Angel Bar to the ground. Because of this, various powers have stirred, trying to root out the mastermind. Up to now, anyone deemed suspicious has been rounded up! Airports, ferries, and other important transportation hubs were locked down immediately," Lei Kai explained.
After speaking, he noticed a mocking smile at the corner of Zhang Xiaohao’s mouth.
Lei Kai exclaimed in surprise, "Boss, you couldn’t be behind all this, could you?"
"I don’t have that kind of clout! Besides, do I look like the type who kills without batting an eye?" Zhang Xiaohao rolled his eyes in response.
"Seems like it!" Lei Kai nodded, sporting an expression that said you’re definitely that type.
"Piss off! I really didn’t do it this time," Zhang Xiaohao said helplessly.
"Boss, what exactly is going on? Could it be that there’s really another force interfering?" Lei Kai inquired.
"No, that’s not it. But the power hidden behind the Holy Angel Bar is enormous! Bigger than you can imagine. They set the fire themselves," Zhang Xiaohao explained.
"What? Are they out of their minds? Aren’t they afraid of other powers banding together against them?" Lei Kai asked in astonishment.
Zhang Xiaohao glanced at him irritably and gave him a rough rundown of tonight’s events.
Of course, he didn’t mention anything about the altar space.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Lei Kai, but some things were safer the less they were known.
By doing this, Zhang Xiaohao was also considering Lei Kai’s safety.
"Good Lord! So you’re telling me, the Holy Angel Bar is like a den of thieves? That’s insane. Even Blood Bat Castle has sided with them; this is just crazy," Lei Kai said, taken aback.
"Alright, what’s done is done. Tell our guys to keep a low profile for a while, make sure they don’t get caught by their people," Zhang Xiaohao instructed.
"Understood," Lei Kai acknowledged.
"Once the heat dies down, have someone take a serious look into this mysterious family named John, to see exactly who they are," Zhang Xiaohao instructed further.
"I understand, Boss."
"Notify our people in R country to deliver a big gift to the Sankou Association! Time to teach certain people a lesson," Zhang Xiaohao said with a cold laugh.
"Rest assured, Boss. I guarantee to deliver a big surprise to those bastards of the Sankou Association!" Lei Kai said, licking his lips.
"Boss, how do you plan to deal with the Assassin’s Guild? Want me to teach them a lesson?"
"With the current tight security, let’s wait for a while! I’ll visit their headquarters myself," Zhang Xiaohao said, his eyes flashing coldly.
"Well, it’s rare for brothers like us to get together. Let’s make sure to drink to our hearts’ content tonight," Lei Kai suggested.
"Haha! You sure you can outdrink me? Weren’t you the one clinging to walls last time?" Zhang Xiaohao laughed. Read full story at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
