Chapter 1389: Chapter 1389

"Can there be some clues of death left behind? Even bone fragments will do. Otherwise, how can we confirm...who this is?"

Hao Jian stopped mid-sentence, suddenly pointing at the screen and shouting in surprise.

A scorched figure lay at the edge of the explosion site, the clothes burned to ashes but the person not dead, feebly moving fingers, pain etched on the scorched face.

Yan Qinglong exclaimed, "What kind of monster is this guy? Such a violent explosion, yet he didn’t die!"

"For god’s sake, we better run quickly, get out of here, this guy’s really got nine lives."

Hao Jian shouted with a grim face, "Pilot, hurry and run."

"What are you running for? He’s clearly been blown into serious injury, can’t even move, what’s there to be afraid of?"

Yan Qinglong rebuked angrily, shouting at the pilot, "Head to the explosion site."

The pilot responded and immediately adjusted the plane’s direction, rushing towards the explosion site.

"Are you crazy? He isn’t dead, why are you going over?"

Hao Jian shouted with a pale face.

"It’s precisely because he’s not dead that I need to go over and finish him off. Now he’s seriously injured, barely hanging in there, it’s our best chance to kill him."

Yan Qinglong stared at the display screen, excitedly speaking, "If I could personally kill this bastard, it would be a great achievement and I’d gain fame worldwide."

"Aren’t you afraid he’ll counterattack?"

Hao Jian looked at Yan Qinglong with a bad temper, puzzled where Yan Qinglong got his courage from, "Do you have any more bombs, just send another one over, and finish him off directly."

"Do you think those are cabbages? The cost of this moment’s bomb already runs into billions, where’s the second one going to come from?"

Yan Qinglong glared at Hao Jian with irritation.

"Then what do we do?"

Hao Jian mumbled with a conflicted expression.

"Hehe, I’m very confident in this bomb, it’s a super bomb capable of killing even Martial Generals, even if Tang Ming isn’t dead, he’s absolutely lost the ability to resist."

Yan Qinglong laughed coldly and said proudly, "And am I not currently using the aircraft to probe? If I’d known this earlier, I should’ve brought a weapons-loaded aircraft, then we wouldn’t have to go over, we could attack Tang Ming from afar."

"Are you sure he doesn’t have any resistance left?"

Hao Jian furrowed his brow, still feeling a bit uneasy.

"Trust me, definitely no error."

Yan Qinglong nodded, brimmed with killing intent, "Today, Tang Ming must die."

"Alright, then I’ll trust you this time."

Hao Jian hesitated, then nodded in agreement.

Soon the helicopter reached the scene, landing directly on a flat ground created by the explosion.

"Do we really have to go down?"

Hao Jian looked nervously at Yan Qinglong.

"If you’re scared, stay on the plane, but I have to go see how this worldly genius is defeated and killed by me."

Yan Qinglong contemptuously rolled his eyes at Hao Jian, jumped off the plane, and strode towards Tang Ming’s location.

Anticipating seeing Tang Ming’s fallen appearance, Hao Jian couldn’t help but follow down.

Although Yan Qinglong spoke confidently, he was actually also afraid Tang Ming might still have fighting power, carefully walking towards Tang Ming upon landing.

Hao Jian was even more timid, following Yan Qinglong with hesitant steps, stopping every three steps, ready to dash away at any moment.

"Tang Ming, you never expected such a day for yourself, did you?"

When they were still ten meters away from the figure, Yan Qinglong called loudly, craning his neck.

"Cough, cough, cough, ugh..."

At this moment, Tang Ming was truly critically injured, his current state was even worse than when his cultivation was abolished, his body severely wounded by the explosion.

Facing such a terrifying explosion, if Wang Chen hadn’t risked his life to counteract it, Tang Ming would undoubtedly be dead.

Previously Wang Chen used his Two-star Martial General cultivation to block some of the impacts, allowing Tang Ming, a Nine-star Martial Master, to remain breathing.

"Hao Jian, did you see? He can’t even muster the strength to reply, what are you still scared of him for?"

Seeing Tang Ming only able to make faint sounds, Yan Qinglong laughed triumphantly.

"Is this guy really injured this badly?"

Hao Jian breathed a sigh of relief, then became excited, "I never thought this bastard would see such a day either."

"Hahaha, shall we send him to the Western Heaven then?"

Yan Qinglong laughed coldly.

"Um, you’d better do it, I’ll watch as he gets killed."

Hao Jian halted, standing far away and not moving.

"Why are you so cowardly? This isn’t like you."

Yan Qinglong taunted disdainfully, "Back when you had the guts to partner with Lengzhan against the Heavenly Cloud Palace, I really admired your courage, but now you’re very disappointing."

"How do you know about what happened with Lengzhan and me?"

Hao Jian’s expression changed slightly.

"Lengzhan mobilized the strength of the Ming Group, as the head of Ming Group’s Operations Section, how could I not know?"

Yan Qinglong smirked, looking playfully at Hao Jian, "Of course, that guy didn’t inform me beforehand, I found out after the fact, I heard Hao Group Leader had fun with several women in the Heavenly Cloud Palace, you really had a good time."

"You... weren’t all the people involved killed? How do you know so much?"

Hao Jian stared at Yan Qinglong gloomily.

"Hehe, you need to get this straight. All the Ming Group members who participated in the auction died, but not all who were involved in the Heavenly Cloud Palace operations died."

Yan Qinglong sneered, looking strangely at Hao Jian, "When you left the Heavenly Cloud Palace, you dispatched several Ming Group members to escort the favored disciples back to the Imperial City, and those disciples weren’t killed."

Hao Jian was suddenly enlightened. He had indeed played with many women together with Lengzhan in the Heavenly Cloud Palace, and had specifically picked several favored Heavenly Cloud Palace disciples to bring back to the Imperial City for prolonged pleasure, never expecting the escort personnel to be the flaw.

"Rest assured! To seal the information, the deputy director has secretly executed those Heavenly Cloud Palace disciples and escort personnel, as long as you don’t mention it, no one will know the incident related to the Heavenly Cloud Palace connects with the Ming Group and you."

Seeing Hao Jian with such an expression, Yan Qinglong playfully pointed out, then drew a knife from his waist, taking step by step towards Tang Ming.

"As long as no one knows, and now Tang Ming is about to die, I’m not afraid if anyone finds out."

Hao Jian wiped cold sweat, constantly reassuring himself.

At this moment, Tang Ming, lying on the ground, suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, expelling the clotted blood stuck in his throat.

"You bastards! Not just ambushing me, but also the ringleaders against the Heavenly Cloud Palace."

Tang Ming shouted in a hoarse voice.
