Chapter 921 - The rise of a huge battle!
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
At the Origin Ability Association’s headquarter.
In the past, Su Hao had come to the Origin Ability Association with various identities; he had come with his real identity and once with as a fake world esper. Now, he came as Chen Ge’s disciple who had survived the trial in Taihu Territory, which was why the Origin Ability Association naturally welcomed him.
What happened in Taihu Territory had already been known by the Origin Ability Association.
Of course, it wasn’t as detailed as what Wu Ming described. What’s more, Wu Ming himself is a world esper who they naturally dare not neglect.
“The matter in Taihu Territory...”
A staff member had both eyes lit up.
“Since I am here, obviously I will say it.” Su Hao smiled, “However, how would there be people that don’t allow the guest to take a break after arriving?”
“Oh, yeah, right.”
The staff realized his mistake and quickly arranged everything for Su Hao.
However, these were just minor details. Su Hao was just casually mentioning it. His real purpose was the Nine Snakes, “Huh, where are the seniors in the Origin Ability Association?”
“Hey, they are all out on a mission.”
The staff said in a mysterious tone, “Rumors are that an evil organization was discovered, killing the officials and numerous victims had fallen to them. Plus, for this organization, a majority of its members are all evil grade S talent espers. These two days, their headquarters had been discovered. Naturally, everyone would take action.”
“Oh?”
Su Hao was shocked.
“I’m telling the truth.”
The staff continued his mysterious tone, “Origin Ability Association only acted on the ordinary members of Nine Snakes, but what happened today made Origin Ability Association completely mad. Just before you came, I heard that another official got killed. Also, earlier this morning, a monk also died.”
“Are you sure they are true?”
Su Hao was truly shocked this time.
“Of course it’s true.”
The staff whispered, “I heard that the deputy mayor of the city next to us got killed, and none of his remains can be seen. All the things that he had done in the past were exposed. It was such a pity that before his death, he managed to hide millions of star dollars. Too bad, it’s impossible to find it now.”
“Damn.”
Su Hao exclaimed.
He roughly knew what happened. He really had to exclaim toward the government officials of that city. Some city officials noticed that something was happening outside and decided to take the opportunity to make a fortune. The deputy mayor got killed, and that guy threw all the blame on Nine Snakes?
“Nine Snakes is indeed unlucky.”
Su Hao shook his head.
Since there was one, there would be two. Su Hao believed that this was definitely not an isolated case. Sooner or later, quite a number of people would react and do similar things.
And Nine Snakes...
They were simply the best target to pin the blame on!
Only God knew that with how low-key Nine Snakes is, how could it do such a funny thing? The matter in Muguang City was only discovered after so many years! If not for Su Hao accidentally breaking in, no one would have discovered it even until now. This clearly proved how cautious Nine Snakes is.
And now, it was completely ruined.
Origin Ability Association couldn’t do anything but intervene.
They could clearly see that the methods were different from the past, and some people are framing the organization, but how could any ordinary people see through it? The number of imitators was not in small amounts, and this was the biggest problem. Thus, whether Nine Snakes was responsible or not, they had to pay the price!
The original goal of Nine Snakes was to capture Wu Ming and hand him over to the Origin Ability Association.
However, after this incident, Origin Ability Association might be forced to deal with them. Plus, the matter of Su Hao visiting the Origin Ability Association now, it might have reached Nine Snakes’ ears by now...
Now, the organization had to fight even if they didn’t wish to do so.
Only by fighting could there be a chance for a way out.
If it didn’t resist, then only death awaits them.
“This is the so-called legend, having no choice but to oppose?”
Su Hao smiled indifferently.
“Are you interested to hear the matter of what happened in Taihu Territory?” Su Hao looked at the staff member receiving him.
“Of course.” The staff had both eyes light up.
“Come, let me tell you from the start. Well, at that time...”
*****
Nine Snakes Organization.
Nine Snakes didn’t seem to mind much regarding the matter of their organization being exposed or framed. After all, they were indeed doing this from the start. They believed that as long as they captured the culprit and threw him to the Origin Ability Association, with the association’s means, they would know the truth soon.
Thus, after locating Wu Ming, they were dispatched.
Just in case, they sent the ninth head, Fa Yuan, who had unimaginable fighting power. Although he’s only level one world esper, even other leaders dare not underestimate him. The monk Fa Yuan was terrifying if he was to use his full strength. Plus, his experience of having killed a level three powerhouses before was indeed amazing.
However, an object on top of the ninth head became excited. When the black light emerged, those leaders of Nine Snakes realized that something was amiss.
The monk Fa Yuan died.
This news shocked everyone! Nine Snakes was greatly shaken by this!
What kind of strength does Fa Yuan possess?
It’s heaven-defying strength!
historical
His talent, Ascetic Monk, allowed him to become like a reincarnation of a living Buddha. All he had to do was to bear the pain. Once he bears it, he would be stronger. Not to mention level one world espers, even a level two world esper could only look helplessly at Fa Yuan being boosted until they are eventually defeated.
As for level three...
If one didn’t know the talent Ascetic Monk, it might even be possible for the boat to be overturned in the sea and ended up defeated by the monk.
Even if he met a strong esper that he can’t defeat, the monk could still turn and run.
There was once when the monk met a peak world esper, he turned around and ran. The attacks coming from behind only made him run faster! When he fled, as he was attacked from behind, the monk could run faster as long as he didn’t die. At that time, he actually managed to escape from that peak world esper.
The monk’s strength was well known to everyone.
Yet he was now dead.
How could this be?
The rest of Nine Snakes were dumbfounded.
According to the data, this Wu Ming was merely a level one world esper. He had some opportunities in Taihu Territory, but so what? He couldn’t be compared to Fa Yuan, who managed to escape from a peak world esper and has experience killing level three world espers!
What had happened?
Could it be that there was another esper who intervened?
As they were pondering, the black light locked on its target, and Wu Ming’s figure was suddenly exposed to the sight of all the members of Nine Snakes. It wasn’t by who killed him, but instead whoever caused harm to the deceased. Now, there was only Wu Ming alone on the list.
“It’s really him!”
The third head world esper said in disbelief, “Wu Ming alone?”
“Damn you, Wu Ming!”
The fifth head was furious.
“Whether or not it’s him, he must die now!”
The second head looked coldly at Wu Ming’s figure, “After a huge battle with Fa Yuan, he must have little strength left. Now, let me see how he is going to block me!”
The second head’s murderous aura rose.
The aura of a peak world esper escaped, causing everyone to stay silent.
Boom!
Seeing Wu Ming running away, the second head didn’t hesitate to use a powerful locking technique. Even an ordinary level three world esper dares not ignore it! After looking at those pitiful boundary spirits and origin techniques displayed by Wu Ming, each leader of Nine Snakes revealed a sneering smile.
The lowest level needle-shaped boundary spirits...
The origin techniques that had long been abandoned by world espers...
He thought that with those, the attack could be blocked?
As predicted, under the black lightning bolt, they could see Wu Ming’s pale looking figure. However, just when they thought they could easily kill Wu Ming, a dazzling white light suddenly rose up to the sky before the scene ended up with endless black and white light enveloping each other. The resulting light blinded them from seeing what was happening.
Snap!
The screen crashed.
The hall of Nine Snakes came back to reality.
“Disappeared...”
Everyone was shocked.
What was that white light that blocked the second head’s attack? Everyone subconsciously looked at their brother. The second head’s face looked extremely ugly now.
Crack~
The cup in his hand was squeezed into powder.
“Being blessed by luck... it sensed a nasty aura.”
The second head’s stare was cold as he bitterly said, “There were treasures with the blessing of luck on his body that cancelled my Rule Force!”
“Sure enough, he’s not ordinary.”
Everyone was stunned. At this time, who would still think that Wu Ming is an ordinary person? Not only could he manage to kill Fa Yuan, he even possessed such rare treasures!
“What to do then?”
“Should we ask the boss?”
“Hmph.”
The second head sneered, “The blessing of luck just happened to counter my talent. Although my talent is not effective against him, that doesn’t mean he’s strong! Just a mere level one world esper, even if he managed to kill Fa Yuan, he just proved that he’s stronger than ordinary espers by a bit. No matter what, Wu Ming must die!”
Everyone nodded.
For whatever reason, when the ninth head died, everything changed. For their own brother, between Nine Snakes and Wu Ming, one must be wiped out!
“He must be killed!”
“Wu Ming must die!”
Everyone’s anger reached up the sky.
“But before this, shouldn’t we settle the matter with the Origin Ability Association?”
A faint voice from the seventh head could be heard, extinguishing their anger.
Yes, even if Wu Ming must die, there are things done in sequence. Now that the Origin Ability Association had targeted them, they had to solve this urgent matter first.
“We just need to capture Wu Ming.”
The second head took a deep breath, “What the Federation needs is an explanation and not the truth. As long we capture Wu Ming, and they know Wu Ming was the culprit, everything will be fine. By then, our Nine Snakes will be victims and Wu Ming will be the murderer. By then, our organization can take this chance to hide again.”
The second head calmed down his anger in an instant as he quickly analyzed the cause and effect of this matter. The people quickly agreed that Wu Ming mustn’t be killed but caught instead! However, just after they came to an agreement and were getting ready to clash with Wu Ming again, news came that made them completely dumbfounded.
Wu Ming went to the Origin Ability Association!
Not only did he go there, he even sat in the VIP seat; this caused all the leaders in Nine Snakes to be dumbfounded. What to do now?
Catching Wu Ming, would Wu Ming give them a chance?
As for spreading rumors?
As long as one sees that it’s a rumor spread by Nine Snakes, who would believe it?
“Damn this guy!”
Everyone in Nine Snakes became furious.
What kind of hatred did Wu Ming have with them that he wanted to trap them in a corner?! Nine Snakes had been staying low key for many years. They didn’t have many members with 36 core members. However, in such a short period of time, one core member died, and even one of the leaders died!
And they have been targeted by the Origin Ability Association!
As for those disciples, they were preparing to hide. The Origin Ability Association had captured even more disciples. Now, with the entire Origin Ability Association taking action, this was simply moving to the pace that they want to eradicate Nine Snakes once and for all!
“There is no time to bother with him.” The seventh head calmly explained, “Since Wu Ming hid in the Origin Ability Association, we can’t touch him anyway. As long as we make a move on him, from the outsiders’ view, it is akin to provoking Origin Ability Association. Now, with the members dispatched by the Origin Ability Association trying to destroy Nine Snakes, it seems that this battle can’t be avoided!”
“Then we will fight!”
Nine Snakes soon reached a consensus.
They only wished to avoid fighting. It wasn’t because they were afraid.
Forget about the reserve members, the true members of Nine Snakes would never be afraid! These series of provocations by the Origin Ability Association had truly made them angry.
The Origin Ability Association is indeed strong. So is the Federation, but does Nine Snakes look like an easy target? Each one of them is a proudful grade S talent esper. With the existence of Art of Rejuvenation, it made everyone in Nine Snakes far more powerful.
“Since they wish for a fight, we will fight!”
“Let Origin Ability Association witness our strength!”
Each leader agreed.
“Remember to report to our boss.” The seventh head said quietly, “In case something happens, this matter must be reported to our boss.”
“Alright.” The second head nodded and then looked at the crowd to issue the final order, “The Origin Ability Association should be arriving soon. Prepare for battle!”
“This time, we will let them regret facing us!”
