On a stretch of sea,
Liu Feng and the others were still on their way. With the signal restored, they began to watch the livestream.
As soon as they opened the stream, they saw the sea covered with the corpses of various contracted spirits. Blood mingled with seawater, creating a shocking sight!
Chen Qinghai's expression turned grave, and he said,
"This kid is a monster! Didn't he just get promoted to Gold rank?"
"He could defeat Gold rank at Silver three-star."
Qin Tian's eyes held a thoughtful look as he said,
"Now that he's broken through a major rank, and his contracted spirits' potential ratings have all become S-class, it's not entirely unreasonable for his combat power to have skyrocketed!"
"As expected of my student!"
Liu Feng grinned, saying, "Like teacher, like student!"
"Can you also fight across ranks now?"
"Old Liu, what year were you a world champion?"
"Weren't you only Iron rank at twenty-three?"
Qin Tian and the other two each chimed in, instantly freezing Liu Feng's smile...
"Get lost!"
Liu Feng pouted and said, "No matter what, he's still my student!"
"He's a student of my academy!"
Qin Tian added, then continued, "Let's hurry. I suspect this guy has further plans!"
"No need to worry. He's only killing criminals anyway, so he'll be fine."
Chen Qinghai smiled. Chen Shu had just proven that the deceased were all members of the Church, which meant Chen Shu hadn't killed innocents.
The only potential wrongdoing was his previous attack on the ten Grandmasters of the Spiritual Chef world, but since there were no casualties, it was unlikely to be a major issue...
"Brother Qin is right," Liu Feng said. "What if this guy goes on a killing spree and heads straight for the Church headquarters..."
Headquarters were not like branch offices. Who knew how many Archbishops were stationed there, not to mention the unfathomably powerful Pope. Chen Shu was nowhere near capable of challenging them at the moment.
Chen Qinghai nodded and focused on their journey.
The Governor of Nancang, who was beside them, seemed to have an idea and said,
"Do you think there might be some contrarians who only believe those two corpses were Church members..."
Chen Shu had only verified the identities of two individuals, but he had killed hundreds. He hadn't verified all the other corpses one by one.
Liu Feng glanced back and replied,
"Then we fight! We fight until they smoke!"
"..."
The four of them sped towards Chen Shu's location...
"So fast!"
Chen Shu sat in Little Yellow's mouth. Due to the great distance, he hadn't used the Space Rabbit's skills to travel.
If he encountered a strong enemy upon arrival at his destination, without his Spatial Secret Power, his combat effectiveness would be reduced.
With the Little Elf's Speed Grant, Little Yellow's speed received a boost of about 20%. Combined with the nearly-instantaneous cooldown of Charge, it wasn't slow at all.
A day passed quickly.
"There's still time..."
Chen Shu looked towards the vast continent ahead, feeling an ancient and rugged aura wash over him.
This was precisely their destination: the Black Continent!
At this moment, he reopened his livestream equipment, preparing to let the whole world witness it.
"It's finally broadcasting. I haven't slept all night..."
"I declare this the most popular livestream in history. Who agrees, who disagrees?"
"What is this guy up to now? He's not going to cause trouble on the Black Continent, is he?"
"Except for a King rank, no one can stop him, right?"
People chattered, actually hoping that Chen Shu would continue streaming indefinitely...
Other people's livestreams were for show and fake, but Chen Shu was different; this guy only dealt in reality...
...
In a remote area of the Black Continent, there were two connected mountain peaks. Nearby tribes called them the Twin Peaks.
However, such peaks were unremarkable in the Black Continent, and even the nearby residents paid them no mind.
Yet, within the two mountain peaks was a hidden world, filled with various modern facilities, even connected to electricity and the internet, capable of housing thousands of people.
Inside one of the mountains, over a thousand people were watching the large screen in front of them with grave expressions, their attention unwavering.
The screen displayed Chen Shu's livestream content.
"The leader is dead. Won't he come looking for us?"
The person at the forefront wore a black robe, his eyes cold, but a hint of panic flickered in the depths of his pupils.
Because they were located on the chaotic Black Continent, they had been in hiding for centuries and had never been exposed.
But Chen Shu was too bizarre, as if he had already known their location.
"My lord, what should we do..."
A man asked, "He seems to have already arrived on the Black Continent..."
"No need to worry, it might just be a coincidence!"
The black-robed man said, "However, just in case, everyone should temporarily evacuate and leave the headquarters!"
"I have already notified the leader of the Night Team! As long as he returns, everything will be fine!"
His steady voice brought a sense of relief to the others; the situation didn't seem too dire.
Besides, Chen Shu might not be looking for them.
The combat power of the Dark Night Organization was not strong; their main strength lay in their outstanding assassination skills, which had posed a considerable threat to various national powers.
The organization was divided into the Dark Team and the Night Team, and the two mountain peaks served as the strongholds for both teams.
The members of the Dark Team were all ordinary people, even their leader. However, their assassination techniques were considered the best in the world.
As for the Night Team, they were Beast Tamers skilled in assassination. They could perfectly cooperate with their contracted spirits and could even assassinate across ranks.
Within the entire organization, only the leader of the Night Team was King rank.
But with him absent, the organization only had a few Gold rank Beast Tamers.
This strength was essentially equivalent to a branch stronghold of a Church, yet they were still known as one of the three major criminal organizations on Blue Star, which demonstrated the formidable nature of their assassination skills.
"Everyone temporarily leave the stronghold and await the organization's orders before returning!"
The black-robed man of the Dark Team made this decision. His status was second only to the two leaders, and he was now forced to carry the burden.
"Number Three, notify the Night Team to also leave temporarily!"
Having said that, the subordinates below nodded in unison, packing their belongings and preparing to avoid the storm.
But just as they were about to leave,
A deafening boom sounded!
