Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 2159 - 2222: I’ve Learned It Too

The intense, surging, terrifying aura emitted from the two blades directly shattered all of General Lion’s hopes. Are these really humans? To think he had just fought the opponent, the gap was this vast!

General Lion swallowed, momentarily forgetting his injuries, his neck stiffened as he stared at the two blades in Li Yifei’s hands.

A smile appeared on Li Yifei’s face. The two long blades of condensed True Qi were not only tangible but genuine blades. These two blades were made of extremely unique materials. In Li Yifei’s perception, these two blades could exist for more than fifteen minutes, and in direct combat, they might last for three to five minutes. Of course, if the enemy was too strong, the duration could be shortened. Just like with General Lion, who had exerted all his strength, but when facing Li Yifei, the latter merely flicked some steel nails to easily shatter his condensed Blood Blade.

This is the disparity in cultivation and strength, not something a mere condensed Blood Blade can bridge. Similarly, if Li Yifei were to encounter a much more powerful foe in the future, it’s impossible to resolve it with a mere blade; this is just an auxiliary skill, designed to catch people off guard.

Moreover, Li Yifei had calculated that condensing these two True Qi Blades consumes about one-tenth of his True Qi reserve, and this was only from his own True Qi. But the power seemed quite remarkable. Li Yifei held a blade in each hand, swung them a few times, and surprisingly found that the condensed True Qi blades could even slash out blade energy. With a swoosh, they cut into the wall, leaving two holes on the clay brick wall.

This was merely his internal True Qi. Who knows what kind of power it would possess if he used acquired Innate Vital Energy? Of course, the premise is that Innate Vital Energy can also condense into True Qi blades.

These two blade energies completely frightened General Lion. He stood there dumbfounded, his eyes staring blankly. If Li Yifei had already made him not dare to have any different thoughts or resistance before, then now with Li Yifei’s blade energies slashing out and piercing the wall, the real question was, how did he accomplish this?

This must be divine intervention; only divine beings can make energy fly so far. It must be. Thinking of this, General Lion struggled to kneel, his body lunging forward, forehead touching the ground, muttering repeatedly, "Divine intervention, he must be the messenger of God, only God’s messenger can do this."

Li Yifei glanced at him with a smile, regardless of how he thought, Li Yifei rubbed his hands to make the two True Qi blades disappear. Actually, he had hidden one fact: he could not only create two True Qi blades at the same time. Since this only lost him one-tenth of his True Qi, theoretically, he could at least create five or six more until his True Qi reserve was halved before he couldn’t make any more.

Considering each loss, seven or eight seems about right. This, of course, was something Li Yifei didn’t need to let General Lion know.

The blade energy attracted the attention of the night guards outside. They rushed in holding weapons, only to find their revered general on all fours on the ground while an Easterner stood not far away, leaving them puzzled. What exactly was happening?

"Kneel quickly, this man is a messenger of God!" General Lion hastily shouted at his subordinates.

The subordinates, who were holding guns, almost fired. Hearing the general’s shout, they shuddered, only hearing him call the messenger of God. These men couldn’t take it. While they were indeed warriors, they were also devout believers. Just like General Lion, and leaders of other units, who claimed to be the most devout believers and God’s messengers, these titles were pinned on themselves. Occasionally, they’d preach; when something happened, they’d hold guns and head to the battlefield. General Lion attracted many followers with his skill of condensing Blood Blades, while another general, claiming to be Bare-ass General, used another method to attract even more followers.

Even though they belonged to one organization, each fought for themselves. Sometimes, to compete for land, food, and weapons, they’d attack each other but not turn completely hostile.

Seven or eight people quickly knelt, prostrating themselves, muttering something in their native language. Their shouting soon attracted countless others to come.

This is not quite like the script... Li Yifei frowned. He had originally intended to kill this so-called General Lion. Though he had no grudge against the opponent, he had promised Zhang Xi, his convenient little brother-in-law, to help kill General Lion.

This was the moment he could act, but it felt somewhat underhanded.

Just as Li Yifei was hesitating about whether to kill General Lion, this guy raised his head, full of sincere yet fervent enthusiasm, saying, "Messenger, please forgive me. We are your most humble believers. For the sake of God, we can offer anything, even our lives and all our wealth..."

Li Yifei still frowned, as General Lion placed a hand on his chest, "In our lifetime, seeing divine intervention is our honor. Messenger, we are incredibly happy."

"Others, out," Li Yifei waved a hand. General Lion swiftly shouted to the others, "You all, withdraw immediately."

The subordinates quickly exited, and when only Li Yifei and General Lion remained, Li Yifei looked at the other with mild annoyance, saying, "What game are you playing? Do you think doing this will stop me from killing you?"

General Lion’s eyes showed confusion, then shook his head, "No, no, Messenger. You are the incarnation of God; I can give you everything, even my life. I have no hesitation." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Really? Li Yifei purposely felt this guy’s change in aura and found his words came without any change. Now, that’s strange. This guy was still a devout believer?

"I’m not God’s messenger, and I don’t know which God you believe in," Li Yifei said coldly.

General Lion instantly raised his head, "No, no, you are God’s messenger, the omnipotent envoy. God is merely God without distinction. You possess divine power, thus, you’re God’s messenger. Even if we cultivated for ten thousand years, we couldn’t reach your level."

"Stop!" Li Yifei saw he spoke quite convincingly. If they hadn’t talked before, he’d think this guy was brainless, what with all that divine nonsense. "Even if I were God’s messenger, what’s the benefit?"

"Benefit... I can give you everything; everything I have. My wealth, though not much, but I can rob for more. My women, I can give you them. I have twenty-one wives, all can be given to you."

Black women? A shiver ran down Li Yifei’s spine, quickly shaking his head, "Alright, you’ve truly tried to convince me not to kill you. Give me one reason not to kill you."

General Lion still appeared fervent, "Messenger, if you wish to kill me, I won’t resist. But I do need to explain, though I’m a villain, I’m not a complete villain. I’ve given many people something to eat, even if this causes others to die. But... that’s the survival rule in this world; the weak must die. It’s the law of the prairie."

"When I came, you were drinking a baby’s blood."

"I indeed drank it; I can’t deny that. But the baby wouldn’t have lived long, his parents were all dead, no one would raise him. It was better if he died and returned to God’s embrace." General Lion showed no sadness, after speaking, he still knelt in front of Li Yifei, looking up and saying, "I’m willing to atone. I know I’ve done many bad things, but Messenger, I’m willing to atone, I can do good things to offset."

I’m neither completely good nor completely bad, Li Yifei thought inwardly, and said aloud, "Say something else, if you’re useful, I might spare you."

General Lion thought for a moment, "I can provide some other information for you. For instance, I know Bare-ass General has a technique allowing him to transform power into armor, so sometimes bullets and shrapnel can be blocked. That’s why he dares to charge ahead naked every battle. But I don’t know his method; still, I believe you, Messenger, can try."

Transform armor? Li Yifei’s brow relaxed, although True Qi Blade was already excellent, having an extra life-saving method like learning armor seemed like a good choice.

So, Li Yifei turned around and pulled up a chair, sat down, and asked the other, "What else?"

"Uh... we have three army units in total, nominally under one organization called the Congo Liberation Alliance, but we each fight for ourselves unless the government forces strongly suppress us; then we’ll help each other. So besides Bare-ass General, there’s another general nicknamed Devil General, whose abilities differ. He can treat some simple diseases, so he has the least people."

"Under whom? Under whom?"

"Uh, some Americans, initially they provided us a lot of money and weapons; now they occasionally provide some!"

"What’s their purpose?"

"They hope we can fight the government forces, not necessarily defeating them, but not letting the government forces win either. However, as far as I know, they also support the government forces on the other side, wishing for more chaos in the country. So, we consciously distanced ourselves from their control. Consequently, they increased support for government forces to attack us, which is why I came here suddenly, exchanging weapons and food."

"Go on."

"Messenger, I feel Bare-ass General’s ability might be useful to you, a skill to block bullets," General Lion said.

The ability to block bullets... Li Yifei was somewhat attracted, thinking that even though he couldn’t directly withstand bullets now, if he could, it would be purely coincidental; it was a very low-probability occurrence.
