Chapter 660: Chapter 511: Sorry, I’m Rank 9

Liang Qi spoke with righteous conviction, then let out a long sigh. “Gao Neng, you possess extraordinary talent. If you agree, I’m willing to take you on as my student. As long as you stop now, in five years, I will still give you my full support when you run for the next Speaker. I hope you can see the error of your ways and release the innocent Councillor Zhang…”

“The innocent Councillor Zhang? Are you talking about him?” A long black blade appeared in Gao Neng’s hand, and he pressed it directly against Councillor Zhang’s head.

“Kill me… Just kill me. But even if I die today, I have to say this: Gao Neng, your actions today will bring disaster upon humanity! You want to seize power? Dream on! The Human Alliance doesn’t belong to you alone. Do you think being Tier Eight means you can ignore the Alliance’s laws? Ptooey! Your naivety and impulsiveness will only lead humanity to its doom. You are a sinner against all humankind!!” Councillor Zhang gritted his teeth.

“Councillor Zhang, if I recall correctly, your full name is Zhang Qinghe… Oh, wait, that’s not right. Your real name is ‘Blood Splattering Three Steps’. You’re a slave adopted by the Blood Race’s Fourth Elder, ‘Blood Splash’. You began secret training at the age of three, showed outstanding talent at twelve, and joined the City Guard Army at eighteen. Because of your exceptionally high case-solving rate, you were promoted to Vice Governor of the City Guard Army at twenty-three, then rose through the ranks until you entered the council… becoming a member of the Supreme Council.” Gao Neng looked calmly at Councillor Zhang.

“What?!”

“Councillor Zhang is a Blood Race spy?!”

“What’s going on?”

The crowd, who had been on the verge of questioning Gao Neng after hearing Liang Qi and the others, were once again stunned by his words.

A spy from another race!

And he even made it into the Supreme Council…

That’s just terrifying!

“You’re spouting nonsense!!! I don’t know any Blood Race Fourth Elder, or any ‘Blood Splattering Three Steps’… Gao Neng, do you really think anyone will believe this?!” Councillor Zhang’s face immediately flushed red.

Because he really wasn’t named Blood Splattering Three Steps…

‘Isn’t this just bullshit?’

‘Who would have such a stupid fucking name?’

His real name was “Wuying.”

He was the seventh adopted son of the Vampire Race’s Second Prince-Duke on the Western District Battlefield—how could he possibly be some slave to the Blood Race’s Fourth Elder?

His status was far too noble to be a mere slave!

Besides, how could a spy who had infiltrated the Supreme Council possibly be a slave?

But just as he finished speaking…

A flash of a blade streaked before his eyes.

Then, he saw the entire world seem to spin before him.

“!!!” Zhang Qinghe.

‘I’m dead?!’

‘Gao Neng… killed me?!’

‘How is this possible?’

‘How could he dare kill me, right here?!’

‘Just because he slapped me with a baseless accusation?!’

Zhang Qinghe couldn’t believe it.

But the fact was, he really was dead.

The moment he finished speaking, Gao Neng’s blade fell. His head flew into the air, then landed on the ground, rolling and rolling…

“…”

“…”

The entire world fell silent.

Liang Qi was stunned.

The Eagle-eyed Man was also stunned.

Wu Qingjing and Luna stared blankly at Councillor Zhang, whose head was now separated from his body.

“He’s dead?!”

“Gao Neng killed a member of the Supreme Council…?!”

Wu Qingjing and Luna exchanged a look, both seeing the horror in the other’s eyes.

This was a member of the Supreme Council!

‘Never mind whether Gao Neng’s claims about him being a spy are true or not…’

‘Even if it were true, he should have had evidence, right?’

‘You say he’s a spy…’

‘And that makes him a spy?!’

‘Does he have to be so impulsive? Does he have to act like this?!’

Wu Qingjing and Luna felt like they were going insane.

The surrounding crowd, who were filming with their phones, also stared blankly at Gao Neng. They, too, were completely shocked.

“He killed someone?!”

“This time, he really killed someone!”

“Gao Neng killed Councillor Zhang!”

“…”

This time, the crowd was truly frightened.

How could anyone be so rash?

In fact, it wasn’t just the people at the scene. Everyone watching on their televisions was also stunned by Gao Neng’s actions.

Killing someone with his blade at the slightest disagreement!

Although Gao Neng had called the man a spy before killing him…

The problem was, he hadn’t even interrogated him.

Who would believe it?!

The entire Alliance was in shock.

On the Western District Battlefield, Patriarch Yi stared at the screen, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.

On the Eastern District Battlefield…

On the Southern District Battlefield…

Countless pairs of eyes were bulging in disbelief!

But soon, they saw a phantom of light rapidly rise up on the screen.

It was a bat-like phantom of light.

Its speed was incredible.

But in the end, it was no match for Gao Neng’s speed.

Because the instant the phantom shot out, Gao Neng was already in front of it. He reached out one hand and snatched the phantom from the air.

“SCREEE!!!”

The phantom let out a miserable shriek.

“Oh? Still trying to run? You think you can outrun my Yellow—oh, no, that’s not right, my Golden Flash?” Gao Neng grunted in surprise. Then, he stuffed the phantom in his hand directly into his mouth.

“GULP!”

Under everyone’s shocked gazes…

The phantom was swallowed by Gao Neng.

At the same time, a brilliant golden light flashed in Gao Neng’s eyes.

But at a time like this, no one noticed the light in Gao Neng’s eyes, because the entire Alliance was currently in a state of shock.

A phantom of light?!

A soul?!

In the form of a bat?!

The meaning behind this couldn’t be clearer.

An Other!

And an Undying Other at that!

But that’s not right at all…

Councillor Zhang was clearly human.

There was no doubt about that, because no Other could infiltrate the Supreme Council. But the fact was, Councillor Zhang’s soul had indeed appeared before everyone’s eyes.

It was a flying bat!

“So that’s how it is…” Gao Neng murmured softly. His gaze then shifted to the skinny councillor not far away.

“You… What are you trying to do?!” The skinny councillor subconsciously took a step back.

“Wang Dinyuan, real name ‘Green Eyes’. What a surprise. To think… you’re actually the Prince Consort to the Fifth Princess of the South District’s Water Spirit Race? You were severely injured on the Southern District battlefield at the age of twenty-seven. The army at the time abandoned you. You, who thought you were going to die for sure, were saved by the Fifth Princess of the Water Spirit Race. From then on, you fell in love with this beautiful elf?” Of course, what Gao Neng had said earlier about “Blood Splattering Three Steps” was a fabrication.

But now, after swallowing Wuying’s soul, he truly knew everything about the skinny councillor before him.

“What?! What Fifth Princess… What Prince Consort… I don’t know any princess you’re talking about, and my name isn’t Green Eyes! You… You stop slandering me!” The shock in Wang Dinyuan’s heart was far more genuine than Wuying’s had been.

‘Because the people who know my true identity…’

‘There aren’t more than three in the entire Alliance.’

‘How could Gao Neng possibly know?’

‘Besides, Gao Neng has never even been to the South District. Where would he have learned this?’

‘But the fact is, everything Gao Neng said was right!’

‘No!’

‘This is impossible!’

“Whether you’re the Prince Consort of the Water Spirit Race’s Fifth Princess or not… once I kill you and see if you have an Undying Body like Wuying, the truth will come out, won’t it?” As he spoke, Gao Neng was already charging toward ‘Green Eyes’.

“Stop! Linhe, Deputy Commander of the Guard Team, I order you to stop Gao Neng right now!!!” the Eagle-eyed Man finally roared at this moment.

“Gao Neng… you don’t have the authority to execute people on the spot!” Linhe gritted his teeth and finally made his move.

But how fast was Gao Neng?

Naturally, he was too fast for Linhe to block.

‘Green Eyes’ watched with terror in his eyes. Seeing Gao Neng close in on him, he could no longer maintain his composure.

“Gao Neng, you want to kill me?! Dream on! I’m also Tier Eight, and a Tier Eight Late Stage at that!!!” A spike that looked like a green vine instantly appeared in Green Eyes’ hand.

“Tier Eight Late Stage? Sorry, I’m Tier Nine!”
