After the experint succeeded, Su Qi was extrely excited.
He finally mastered a ans to counter an Apostle Level.
Oh, no, to say counter is a bit arrogant, accurately speaking, it was just a tiny bit of resistance ability.
According to Pei Jing’s words, Transcendents at the Apostle Level are like an army driving the most advanced tanks, whereas no matter how powerful the Overlord Level is, it’s still wielding a large knife.
Now, Su Qi had probably replaced the large knife with a tank that’s been scrapped for many years.
What’s more, he had just consud the Beast at Essence Potion.
As long as he continues ingesting it, his physical body will be strong enough, energy accumulation sufficient, stepping into Apostle Level will be a breeze without any surprises.
After changing clothes, naturally, he couldn’t avoid a scolding from Pei Jing.
He was considered too reckless, too brazen.
On the surface, Su Qi naturally showed the deanor of a well-behaved child being reprimanded, but he knew full well that he wasn’t making this attempt on a whim.
Ever since learning of Xu Xiaofan’s existence.
He calmly analyzed various possibilities, even considering the possibility of Xu Xiaofan assassinating him.
Just in case Qiu Ran, the big shot, was negligent and didn’t respond, right?
He always needed so ans to struggle, after all, he had witnessed that night how many Overlord Levels of the Xu Family were powerless in the face of Pei Jing.
Besides, having the ’Spring of Life’, this restart Divine Skill, he was confident there wouldn’t be any mistakes.
Facts proved that his conjecture was entirely correct.
Moreover, this was also the first ti Su Qi had used this restart Divine Skill, roughly understanding this ability.
Activated in advance, triggered at the brink of death, the restart recovery effect is only half of the state a second before death.
After continuously ingesting the Beast at Essence Potion for three days, Su Qi’s physical strength reached an incredible state.
As for observing Jia Zong, Su Qi was also unremitting.
Fortunately, during these three days, Jia Zong’s attitude hadn’t changed at all; he was still so devout.
On this day, Su Qi brought Jia Zong to an abandoned warehouse not far from the military base, preparing to implent the strategy of catching the enemy in his trap.
The bait, of course, was the cleaning company offering them a high salary.
Of course, paying wages was out of the question; after all, during that night’s battle with the Xu Family, they fought the fiercest, so one way or another, they had to earn so interest back.
According to the plan.
Jia Zong sent a ssage to one of the Overlord Level Transcendents recruited by the Xu Family — had just joined the cleaning company, had found out the way inside, very strong background here, willing to recruit skilled people who previously served the Xu Family, limited spots, hurry!
The Overlord Level Transcendent, upon receiving the ssage, treated it as a treasure.
Couldn’t care less about others, it was paramount to escape from the Xu Family’s quagmire first.
This place simply wasn’t fit for human habitation!
Since the night of the ambush, subsequently, he had to endure a beating almost daily, and at tis even two or three tis.
Soone suggested abandoning these Xu Family bases, running off to places with more people, forcing those thugs to think twice.
But when he proudly walked down the street.
Accidentally brushed shoulders with soone, and imdiately dozens of people erged from the crowd, assaulting him, each as formidable as could be, yet their fighting style was just like street thugs!
He was a dignified Overlord Level Transcendent too!
When had he ever suffered such grievance!
Thus, following the address given by Jia Zong, he arrived at the warehouse.
He paused slightly at the door, took a deep breath, as if bidding farewell to all the hardships encountered at the Xu Family, vaguely sensing that he would embrace a new life here!
Pushing open the warehouse door, what ca into view was Jia Zong’s gentle smiling face, and the rear view of soone in a white robe.
Instantly realizing, this should be the big shot from the cleaning company Jia Zong was introducing him to.
"My lord, honored by your acceptance, Level 26 Overlord Level Transcendent Zhu Fan, is willing to serve!" The man quickly approached and respectfully bowed.
Su Qi could sense a tinge of sincerity in his words.
But... the beating still had to be executed.
He slowly turned around, extending his right hand with a nonchalant expression.
Seeing the big shot’s extended hand, Zhu Fan’s heart jumped with excitent, hurriedly reaching out to shake it.
But in the next second.
A blazing golden circle appeared around him without warning.
As the golden circle contracted, he startlingly realized that mobilizing energy within was becoming increasingly difficult.
He struggled with a mix of fear and confusion, asking, "My lord, what...what do you an by this? I truly ca to seek refuge. Even if you don’t fancy , there’s no need for this."
Simultaneously, he turned to question Jia Zong, "Brother Zong, say sothing for , I trusted you so much."
Jia Zong calmly reassured him with a smile, "Zhu Fan, don’t panic, this is a divine test for you."
Co on...
When Zhu Fan saw Su Qi conjuring a grim-faced hamr, his face turned pale, his hair standing on end, survival instincts instantly flaring, he turned to run.
Bang!
With part of his Transcendent energy restrained, how could Zhu Fan be faster than Su Qi?
In an instant, Su Qi had him flattened to the ground.
This ti, it was slightly better than with Jia Zong; just two strikes from the Hamr of Repentance and the passive effect was triggered.
Subsequently.
Su Qi replicated the process, having Jia Zong send individual ssages.
Within half an hour, the warehouse was already filled with a row of Overlord Level Transcendents from the Xu Family.
Oh, they’re no longer with the Xu Family now.
They are Su Qi’s most devout and loyal Believers!
Su Qi quickly noticed a pattern; as more people were added, the probability of triggering the passive effect of the Hamr of Repentance correspondingly weakened.
The first few only required a few strikes.
For the later ones, it took over a dozen strikes to trigger.
"The limit should be 23 people, related to the Ability Level."
Su Qi glanced at the last bald Transcendent, his head covered in lumps, bleeding profusely, roughly estimating the number the Hamr of Repentance could affect.
As for the maintenance ti, more observation was needed.
Thus, Su Qi planned to hold off for now; having Jia Zong bring more people over, probably not triggering the passive effect and beating soone to death would be quite unwise, right?
At this mont, the bald Overlord Level Transcendent pointed at the lumps covering his head in confusion, asking, "My lord, why are there more lumps on my head than on others..."
Su Qi scanned around, smiling, "In ancient tis, great beings had lumps on their heads, resembling heaven’s canopy. Hmm... after all, the more lumps, the more it signifies your loyalty to the divine."
When Wang Zhen saw Su Qi returning with over twenty Overlord Level Transcendents, he was greatly shocked.
Especially realizing that these were all Xu Family retainers listed on the cleaning company’s blacklist, made his heart skip a beat in fear.
"How did you manage to deplete a majority of Xu Family’s assets in one go?"
Su Qi, on the other hand, was nonchalant, "Don’t mind these minor details."
"These people are here to atone; use them as needed, no need to worry about loyalty for now, I’ll keep a close watch on them."
Following that.
The Overlord Level Transcendents stationed at various Xu Family bases seemingly sensed sothing amiss.
They couldn’t sit still all of a sudden.
"Have you guys noticed, why so people aren’t making any moves?"
"Yes, Brother Zong used to talk the most, now his communicator can’t even be reached."
"Sssss—"
"Could it be they’ve all been secretly taken out!"
Connecting it to the frequent beatings recently, cold sweat ran down their backs, they hurriedly rushed to other bases to investigate.
Upon seeing the bases deserted, with no trace left, an imdiate sense of dread overtook them, fleeing with reckless speed.
Turns out, while they were unaware.
Soone... had already taken action against the Xu Family!
