Chapter 1004: Power Showcase
Tung Yang and Jiao Linhan from afar had seen everything Qin Feng did.
When Bai Li retracted the alternate dinsion, Tung Yang still felt like he was in a dream.
“Qin Feng, when did you attain S-tier?” Tung Yang was stuttering. He then quickly shook his head. “No, that’s not right. You are actually S1-tier now?”
Qin Feng did not expose his true ability before this. Most of the ti, it was Bai Li who took care of things.
Besides, since he progressed extraordinarily fast, Qin Feng had always obtained the certification only after he had leaped through several major tiers. It was no different this ti. He had yet to get the badge on Earth after evolving into S-tier.
Furthermore, he had passed the strength test before being accepted into the Human Alliance. That made S-tier certification even less significant. Hence, Tung Yang was surprised to find that not only had Qin Feng reached S-tier, but he was in S1 territory now.
More bizarrely, Qin Feng had killed Endo with his own hand.
Endo was not a random nobody but a top-notch SS-tier aptitude user. Yet his life was ended by Qin Feng this easily?
Such news would cause turmoil once it gets out.
“Yeap. By the way, I still haven’t congratulated Regent Tung for reaching S-tier!” Qin Feng said.
“Sa goes for you!” Tung Yang replied with a bitter smile. No doubt, attaining S-tier was a comndable achievent. But when it was compared to Qin Feng’s record, it did not seem that impressive anymore.
“Regent, my hands were tied so I had no choice but to kill Endo. It would have unwanted ramifications if news of his death were to get out. Could you pretend that you didn’t see anything and help to keep it a secret?”
Endo still had a lot of underlings loyal to him. There were at least nine S-tiers under the SS-tier elect. If they knew Endo was killed by Qin Feng, he would be in deep trouble.
Though he was not afraid of any S-tiers, his concern lay in the safety of the Fengli Organization.
He would not be around all the ti to protect the organization. At least right now, he planned to enter the Runic Realm.
“That would not be a problem. Nobody would believe anyway!” Tung Yang promised.
“How about you, Master Jiao?” Qin Feng asked Jiao Linhan through his consciousness.
Jiao Linhan was staggered by the abrupt request. He quickly ca near with a flattering smile.
“Who am I to be called master? Please stop calling that. I know nothing about what happened just now.”
Jiao Linhan was not stupid. In fact, he feared Qin Feng more than anyone now.
He tried to convince Qin Feng to work under him earlier. When Qin Feng rejected him, he had not been friendly to him since. What was more, Jiao Linhan had even persuaded Bai Li to leave Qin Feng.
Thinking back on his actions, Jiao Linhan was embarrassed and wished to dig a hole to hide in.
Luckily, Qin Feng did not seem to be offended.
“It’s just a title. If soone cos later, please rember to say that Endo has entered the rift.”
The ability that Qin Feng had unleashed was formidable. Despite its destructive nature, the ability also ca with natural camouflage. No matter how powerful one’s consciousness was, he or she could not have detected it from far as their perceptual ability would have been masked by Qin Feng’s dark runes.
As Qin Feng had foreseen, an aptitude user arrived not long after. He was none other than Qin Feng’s partner, Nangong Zeming.
Nangong Zeming was surprised to find them near the rift too.
“I didn’t expect to see you all here!”
Qin Feng and the rest greeted him as well. The arrival of Nangong Zeming caught them by surprise too.
Nangong Zeming sized them up closely. The aura that exploded from here earlier was abnormally vibrant. He imdiately found the source.
“Regent Tung, congratulations on your upgrade!” Nangong Zeming said.
“I am not the only one. Qin Feng has reached S-tier too.” Tung Yang did not want to be put under the spotlight when soone more brilliant like Qin Feng was around.
Nangong Zeming laughed bigheartedly. “I have worked with him to develop a dinsion just recently. It doesn’t shock one bit that he has reached S-tier. He already had that in him when we first t. Besides, he is the only exception I know that was allowed into the Human Alliance before reaching S-tier. Now that you are also an S-tier, you should go and register your na under the alliance. I will lead you there later.”
“Thanks!”
“Haha! Please don’t take away my honor! I should be the one who introduces Tung Yang,” Jiao Linhan objected laughingly.
“Cool. Save the trouble. Regent Tung, please don’t bla for not helping you in the future!”
“No, no! Please don’t say that.”
After the initial small talks, Nangong Zeming finally rembered his purpose of coming here. He asured the large rift with concern. The jubilant atmosphere revolving around Tung Yang’s promotion evaporated rapidly.
“This rift is scarier than the spatial beast last ti. Is there a powerful beast around here just now? I sensed an unusual aura around earlier.”
Tung Yang and Jiao Linhan tried to maintain a poker face. They wanted to keep the secret but were still too astounded to think of any pretense that could prevaricate Nangong’s question.
Qin Feng, on the other hand, was comfortable in his own skin. Endo was not the first SS2-tier he had killed, and would not be the last. Thus, his mind was at peace.
“Though the rift has been open for so ti now, no beast has erged from it as far as we know. Not only that, ample runes are oozing out from it. It is rich enough to enhance any ability user near it. As for the aura you ntioned, it belongs to Endo from the Dark Coalition.”
“The Violent Butcher? Are you guys alright?”
Qin Feng continued to build on his lie smoothly. He said calmly, “We are fine. He almost had us. Luckily I have a life-saving gem at disposal, which is ruined now. Endo left us after that and chose to enter the rift instead. He ntioned sothing about the Runic Realm. I guess he knows what hides behind this rift.”
“Runic Realm?” Nangong Zeming was shocked. “Could it be...”
“Master Nangong knows where this rift leads to?” Tung Yang quickly changed the topic seeing that Qin Feng had made the lie sound plausible. He did not want to discuss Endo anymore.
Besides, he was eager to know what Runic Realm was. Was this dinsion really as good as Endo claid?
Qin Feng pretended that this was his first ti hearing the na as well. In fact, he had little info regarding this in his past life. The only thing he knew was that such a giant rift existed in the ocean, and only an S-tier was allowed to visit.
“The Runic Realm is very different from the dinsions we know about. However, as an ancient warrior, I am not that well-inford either. All I know is that such a dinsion is a blessing to ability users.”
Endo had said sothing similar as well.
