Chapter 1034: Group Annihilation “The key?” Su Ping narrowed his eyes. The Home of Havoc was a broken area where multiple spaces overlapped; one might fall into deep spaces and get killed there. Also, there seemed to be a power that even Celestials were scared of; some people who had offended them would choose to go there and hide. Notorious criminals often fled there too. The explorations done by the Federation were proportionally similar when comparing the charting of the Home of Havoc and the Sea of Illusions. They too barely knew the former. “It’s true. This is the key to a place with ancient relics; we would have died in the Home of Havoc without them,” said the brawny young man quickly, not daring to lie at the moment. He kept considering ways to escape while he talked. Will I be set free if I speak the truth? He didn’t even dare to dream that. After all, he had interrogated countless people; the tables had turned this day, becoming the one cornered with no way out. “You just glanced at her,” Su Ping suddenly said. Stunned, the brawny young man quickly said, “I didn’t… Ahhhh!” A scream burst out; Su Ping’s mental power squeezed the man’s soul. Then, he summoned the Little Skeleton and threw food to it. Loulan Lin was shocked by the scene, listening to the guy’s screams while the Little Skeleton chewed away. Su Ping was quite sophisticated, cruel and decisive; she could hardly believe he was a genius who had just begun making a name for himself. Many of her acquaintances were talented geniuses, but they seemed like harmless sheep compared to Su Ping. On the other hand—remembering what Su Ping had just said—she had a strange feeling she never had before. The man was brutally killed just for glancing at her… Naturally, Su Ping didn’t know what was on Loulan Lin’s mind; he simply realized that the guy would very likely try to escape with Loulan Lin’s help. After all, the Dark Tower killer should have known better than to ask for mercy. Both knew Su Ping wouldn’t spare him, so the guy was surely looking for an opportunity. Besides, Su Ping had already learned what he intended to know. I’ll just keep this. Maybe it’ll come in handy someday.?Su Ping pocketed the badge and cleaned everything up. Then, he checked his coordinates; they would reach the spatial trap’s edge in fifteen minutes more. The man blocked quite a large area in space, gradually and naturally as he did so. Is that what Ascendants are capable of??Su Ping’s eyes glittered. He had met a lot of Ascendants; unfortunately, he had never pushed any of them to test their limits. Furthermore, he had fought Ascendants up close, being always killed so fast that he didn’t know much of their special methods. I’ll test the waters with another Ascendant after I condense a second small world, to see how much harder they have to fight,?Su Ping thought, eager to return to his store. Fifteen minutes passed soon after. The two of them reached their destination, and the Ascendant beast didn’t seem to follow them, which made them feel relieved. However, they weren’t out of the woods yet, and Su Ping would not dare relax. Once he left the spaceship, he released his small world and merged with both the Little Skeleton and the Dark Dragon Hound; his strength quickly rose to the peak. His aura was enough to make normal Star Lords submit! It had to be noted that he was only in the Star State at the moment! Inside the spaceship—Loulan Lin looked at the seemingly invincible young man in space, with some sort of light in her eyes.?Is that his real strength? He’s so horrifying… Soon, Su Ping concentrated ninety percent of his strength and slashed forth with God’s Arrival. The entire space seemed to be falling apart; light was bursting out and countless laws collapsed. The ultimate sword aura penetrated the dark universe like the rays from an exploding sun. Then, with a boom, the void in front of them rippled fiercely until it collapsed, showing an opening which looked like an abyss. I might have tried too hard.?Su Ping breathed heavily in space and canceled his power. While the spatial enclosing was an Ascendant method, it wasn’t as solid as he had imagined; it was like a giant web that could catch fish without alarming them. “Let’s go.” Su Ping returned to his spaceship. Loulan Lin immediately ordered the spaceship to fly out of there. Several minutes later, they dashed out of the spatial abyss and reached another region. Both felt relief upon seeing the stars in the distance. Su Ping checked his watch and found signals. Relieved once more, he sent Rhea’s coordinates to Loulan Lin. “Let’s go to my place first. Also make sure to inform your family so they can rescue your brother.” “Okay.” Loulan Lin nodded and gave an instruction to the spaceship. Then, she spoke to her family and asked for reinforcements. The news of them being attacked by an Ascendant was too shocking for the person on the other end of the call, and action was quickly taken. Worrying that her family could have more infiltrators from the Dark Tower, Loulan Lin contacted her grandmother whom she trusted, and sent another pair of coordinates to her. Half a day later, they saw the Loulans’ spaceship in the rendezvous coordinates; they seemed to have waited for a long time. Loulan Lin sent out the Loulans’ distress call; the spaceship flew immediately toward her. “Uncle Haisen!” “Director Feng!” Su Ping was slightly relieved to see Loulan Feng. That didn’t seem to be another ambush. The Loulans seemed to know that they were paranoid after being assaulted, so they sent Loulan Feng who was more familiar with Su Ping. That would also be another chance for them to bond. “Mr. Su!” Loulan Feng was greatly relieved to see Su Ping safe and sound. He moved towards him at a high speed. “Xiao Lin.” The strong Ascendant next to him wore a gentle expression when he saw Loulan Lin. “Uncle Haisen, have you reached out to Brother Xue yet?” Loulan Lin asked quickly the moment they met; she was definitely worried. Although it was hard for an Ascendant to kill someone of the same cultivation realm, the enemy was from the Dark Tower, a frightening assassin no less! “Not yet, but our family has sent multiple people to rescue him. He should be safe,” said Loulan Haisen in a low voice, brutality swelling in his eyes. Although the operation was aimed at Su Ping, the Loulans were caught in great danger too. “Fortunately, they only sent one Ascendant expert, or the result would have been much worse.” Loulan Feng was truly worried for Su Ping and Loulan Lin. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 “That Ascendant expert kept my brother occupied. The main assassins were six strong Star Lords that could compare to the top experts of the Divine Lord Rank. Even I was unable to beat them,” said Loulan Lin solemnly. The assassination would have succeeded if Su Ping hadn’t been unimaginably strong. “Six assassins that can compare to the top experts of the Divine Lord Rank?” There was a change in Loulan Feng and Loulan Haisen’s expressions; they turned to look at each other. The six Star Lords that Loulan Lin couldn’t beat had actually failed to assassinate Su Ping, even though they were great assassins from the Dark Tower? The two of them glanced at Su Ping. Loulan Lin was subtle about it, but the obvious fact was that they couldn’t have fled without Su Ping, because she couldn’t have defeated them. Whether it was because of Su Ping’s own strength or his master’s treasures, the result was still shocking. It was likely that only Ascendants could deal with the young man! “Mr. Su, are you going back to the Celestial Court, or are you coming back with us to the Loulan territory?” Loulan Feng asked Su Ping. Loulan Lin raised her head and looked at Su Ping who was much taller than her, with hope in her eyes. Su Ping shook his head calmly. “I don’t think they’ll come back right after a failed assassination. I plan to return home, and then see my master in the Celestial Court later.” “Return home?” All three of them were stunned. They didn’t expect that Su Ping would dare to stay outside instead of returning to the Celestial Court after the assassination attempt. Loulan Haisen frowned and asked, “Mr. Su, wouldn’t it be too dangerous?” He thought that Su Ping was too young and careless. Loulan Feng’s eyes glittered, but he didn’t persuade him. He had been to Su Ping’s store, and knew that there were Ascendants that even he was unable to see through. It would be hard even for the Dark Tower to assassinate him as long as Su Ping returned, unless multiple Ascendant State experts were sent to deal with him, but that was too high a price. “That’s all right. My place is safe,” said Su Ping. As long as he returned to his store, he would be in the safest place in the entire universe. Loulan Haisen was about to say something else, but refrained after seeing the hint dropped by Loulan Feng. He was slightly puzzled but he didn’t continue. Loulan Feng said, “In that case, we’ll just escort you home.” Su Ping nodded. Although it was unlikely that he would be attacked again, it would always be safer to have Ascendants escorting him. Loulan Lin was rather disappointed, but she soon became curious. During the assault, she had realized that the seemingly casual Su Ping had actually been extremely careful and prudent.?Why is he so determined to go home? Is someone waiting for him? Once the thought crossed her mind, she felt that her heart had been grabbed by a tiny hand. Then, Su Ping followed the two Ascendants from the Loulan family to their spaceship. Loulan Lin informed their reinforcements of the change of location where they would pick her up, and asked them to retreat for the moment. Loulan Feng and Loulan Haisen learned of the details of the assassination from Su Ping and Loulan Lin as they traveled. Su Ping skipped his battles, also glossing over the details. Loulan Lin displayed images of the assassins with her energy. Loulan Feng immediately searched with his family’s intelligence network, soon finding their information. “It’s them!” Both elders were shocked after figuring out the assassins’ identities. Also, thanks to Su Ping’s depictions of the other assassins, they soon confirmed that the six assassins were those who had organized the shocking assassination two thousand years prior! “They were the ones who assassinated another Celestial’s disciple two thousand years ago, one who was famous throughout the universe, a second place holder of the Divine Lord Rank!” Loulan Feng looked awful.
