Later in the day, Qu Jianlei contacted Black Panther through Optimus.
Black Panther had already advanced to B-level, no longer as dispirited as before, looking vibrant and full of energy.
Although he still leaned on two crutches, his body was much more agile than before and he could manage without them in urgent situations.
Before eting Qu Jianlei, he had already gathered information, so as soon as they t, he stated.
"If you want to take action against that family, it’s best to do it tonight; tomorrow night is not very safe..."
The warriors in Central City generally sympathized with him, but knowing he appeared, it was impossible not to report him.
Similarly, once the Gorge grasped his movents, they couldn’t avoid launching a siege, and the intensity would certainly not be mild.
Thus, Qu Jianlei could only take revenge on the Douglas family before the Gorge’s people arrived; otherwise, he’d have to wait a long ti again.
Qu Jianlei expressed without hesitation, "Why wait so long, to give them ti to escape?"
Black Panther smiled and spread his hands, "But there’s no rain tonight."
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at the remark, "You even know that?"
Black Panther chuckled in response, "Do you know how many people are studying your activity patterns now?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head indifferently, "There are indeed many people with guts."
"Money moves people’s hearts," Black Panther sighed lightly, "Honestly, seeing those bounties, I was sowhat tempted too."
Qu Jianlei shook his head, casually handed him two boxes, "These are two B-level crystals. I need to trouble you with sothing..."
Throughout the night, nothing was said, and the next day in Central City, everything seed the sa, feeling no different.
Until evening, when a convoy arrived from the outskirts; among the five off-road vehicles were robust warriors.
The Gorge directly dispatched six A-level warriors this ti, along with so B-level warriors with targeted attributes.
After arriving in Central City, they first gathered information about the Douglas family’s situation.
The feud between this family and Jian Lei was no secret long ago, even people from the Gorge disliked this family.
Therefore, the people from the Gorge only asked briefly about this family’s current situation.
The attention on the Douglas family was high in Central City, but after a few exchanges, soone suddenly rembered.
"Strange, today at the Douglas family... no one ca out."
This family had reached a point where everyone wanted to strike, but for such a large family, it’s impossible for no one to go out.
Even without any ergencies, with so many people living together, daily necessities must be procured, right?
"What kind of weirdness is this?" An A-level warrior frowned; he was a bigwig from the Secret Pavilion of Central City.
"It might not be strange," a slightly lean A-level warrior shook his head, he was from the Gorge.
"Connect with soone from this family, say we have so matters to inquire about."
"This family... is troubleso to deal with," a B-level from Central City expressed so annoyance.
"Whenever you go to them for tasks, they’ll cling to you for help, hard to shake off."
The Douglas family was now really desperate; they’d open up to anyone who might be able to help.
"My Gorge is just looking to ask sothing," the lean warrior said indifferently, "Do they have the guts to refuse?"
The speaker thought for a mont, braved to reply, "Their own family doesn’t have confidence."
"Then... let’s wait a day," the man from the Gorge was not that hard to talk to after all.
Facts proved that the Gorge people were indeed not easy to deal with, but this ti the opponent was Jian Lei, so winning over the locals was very necessary.
By the next evening, this person erupted, "They’ve been dead for over a day... didn’t you help contact their family yesterday?"
Turns out, on this day, the Douglas family still had no one going out, until evening soone finally couldn’t resist visiting.
Indeed everyone was dead; in the vast estate, more than three thousand people died in different places, not a single survivor.
Even many days later, when the estate emitted a foul sll, people discovered that the estate also had secret tunnels?
Even the people in the tunnels died...
But these were later matters; when this person erupted, others were examining the causes of the deceased’s deaths.
This cause... was also very bizarre, all deceased displayed no wounds whatsoever.
So had expressions of horror, as if encountering sothing unbelievable.
But most died in bed, with peaceful faces, as if simply unable to awaken from sleep.
Without anyone from the Gorge speaking, Central City’s people could also judge, "They likely died early yesterday morning; it doesn’t feel like poisoning."
The ability to silently cause the death of three thousand people with no injuries typically relies on poisoning.
However, poisoning naturally elicits corresponding reactions, and these deceased showed no obvious signs of poisoning.
The crucial point is, due to individual differences and varying intake, poison effects would show at different tis, making information easy to spread.
Yet clearly, no one spread the news, leading everyone to discover the anomaly by next evening.
However, so guessed Jian Lei’s thod, "Could it be spiritual attack? Suggest checking the brains of several deceased."
"Impossible to be a spiritual attack," soone from the Gorge staunchly denied, "Too few warriors with spiritual attributes!"
"But Jian Lei is an attributeless warrior... executing spiritual attacks is also normal."
The person from the gorge imdiately beca angry, "How could he possibly master techniques related to the spiritual attribute?"
The opposite side was adamant, "This secret technique is lost in Central City, but the gorge must have it, right?"
The problem is that the gorge doesn’t have it either, this person knows all too well, yet there’s no way to explain.
In fact, he knows things that others don’t... the gorge doesn’t have it, but Mo Huaitian has it!
But this information absolutely cannot be leaked, "Bury the bodies of this family entirely."
However, this ti, the people from Central City did not comply, "We need to dissect to find the cause of death!"
"I said it’s not allowed!" he was enraged, "Just execute it as ordered."
But the opposite side responded defiantly, "You can say it’s prohibited, but this concerns over three thousand lives!"
"If we can’t find out the cause, the hearts in Central City will be filled with anxiety, can you take responsibility?"
Central City is ant to heed the gorge’s command, but with clearly unreasonable demands, they can also argue their case.
The person from the gorge thought about it, felt the responsibility was too great, couldn’t bear it, and reluctantly fell silent.
After Central City’s investigation, they actually found traces, believe it or not.
"There are ruptures in the brain’s blood vessels; the key is this..."
The strongest C-level warrior of the Douglas Family also died, with a clear abnormality in the brain.
It’s evident that Jian Lei targeted him with a heavy hand, seeking to kill with one blow.
Indeed, though there’s no evidence yet to show who committed this cri, everyone has already concluded that Jian Lei did it.
However, after discovering the cause, everyone was even more dumbfounded; ninety-nine percent likely it was a spiritual attribute attack!
Even the people from the gorge remained silent.
In fact, they all understood that during Nan Guannan’s attack, it was highly possible he encountered a spiritual attack.
But this speculation was just too terrifying, so to maintain public stability, the information was tightly controlled within the A-level warriors.
Not even every A-level warrior was inford.
So still held on to a sliver of hope, thinking this speculation might not be true.
But now, this fig leaf has been ruthlessly ripped away by the people of Central City.
Interestingly, their reaction was the sa as the gorge’s, "Issue a gag order, strictly control the spread of information, violators will be executed!"
As for continuing the hunt for Qu Jianlei? Give a break, whoever wants to can go.
As long as that guy stays quietly in hiding, everyone can carry on peacefully.
If he truly does sothing outrageously heinous, naturally, a Supre will deal with him.
A-level is truly not the end; only by stepping into the realm of Supre will one know how insignificant A-level is.
Qu Jianlei didn’t know that the warrants for his arrest from Central City and the gorge had beco nominal.
After so revenge, he was sowhat exhausted—the crux being significant ntal depletion.
Returning to his hideout in the safe house, he rested for a full two days before his spirit revived.
While he rested, Xiao Moshan and Youyou were gathering information for him and purchasing supplies.
They got wind of the news about the gorge’s visitors, but they both arrived quickly and left just as swiftly, which was quite surprising.
Furthermore, the gag order was enforced so firmly that many people had no idea about the real reason behind the gorge’s withdrawal.
Even Black Panther couldn’t get specific information; he rely thought Jian Lei’s actions were too ruthless, making the gorge’s people apprehensive.
Nonetheless, it was indeed ruthless; Central City had seen massacres before, even ones with over three thousand lives.
But to single-handedly slaughter over three thousand people... Black Panther didn’t want to use derogatory terms to describe Jian Lei.
When he requested to see Qu Jianlei again, his gaze towards him carried a hint of complexity.
However, regardless of anything, he got things done, bought a very sturdy truck.
He also managed to obtain so travel permits... the kind that could pass as real.
Qu Jianlei wanted to visit Bentley and Flower Scorpion because the following period would require him to stay hidden for a long ti again.
As for Xiao Moshan and Youyou, he made no demands, as the conditions in Central City were much better than those in the lower gathering area.
But these two were firm in their stance, determined to follow him.
Youyou even half-jokingly, half-seriously expressed, "I also want to cultivate using A-level crystals as soon as possible, gotta push you a bit."
Xiao Moshan stated more plainly, "If the three of us are alone, there’s a chance of running into trouble, but together, we fear nothing."
Since they both wanted to join him, the three rested for a day and set out directly the next day.
This ti going to the Zhou Character Residence Area was much smoother than last ti.
There were still so who lacked awareness on the road, but all three were at least B-level and adept at perception.
As long as they took turns being vigilant, they feared no ambush.
By the ti the vehicle reached Zone Zhou Character, they had surprisingly earned tens of thousands of silver coins, and the truck bed was filled to the brim.
However, the journey was indeed long, and just the traveling took about four months.
