Planet Pulverizer: A Mortal's Ascent

Chapter 53: Funeral



Chapter 53: Funeral

"Demonic Sand!"

The driver, who had been smoking earlier, was beyond shocked when he saw Li Pin kill Demonic Sand with a single punch of his Five Elements Unity.

Initially, the plan was for him and Demonic Sand to join forces to kill Li Pin, but when Li Pin erupted his Blood Core, he chose to disengage because he wasn't courageous enough to partake in a life-or-death battle.

In the end, Li Pin, utilizing his ferocious and berserk power, killed Demonic Sand on the spot.

How can Li Pin... be this strong?!

Phew!

Li Pin, who had just killed Demonic Sand, didn't show any hesitation and like an unstoppable ferocious beast pounced for the Core Force martial artist who was still shaken up, bringing with him a wave of bloodthirstiness.

Escape!

At this moment, there was only one thought in the Core Force expert's mind—escaping, fleeing! The faster the better!

He didn't become a bounty hunter because of any lofty aspirations, it was just for the cash!

The reason they tried to make a move against the Five Elements Sect was that they felt that, with their capabilities, they could suppress the already-on-the-decline Five Elements Sect.

In the worst-case scenario, they would ask for a ridiculous sum of money and then try to lower their asking price a little at a later stage should the Five Elements Sect succeed in finding someone to back them up.

Regardless, they wouldn't lose out.

They had never thought that they would put their lives on the line for this.

Their actions had led them to throw away their lives!

Facing Li Pin, who had killed their team's second-strongest expert with an extremely vicious disposition, this Core Force martial artist didn't harbor any further thoughts of challenging Li Pin, and he quickly tried to retreat at the fastest speed he could muster.

Boom!

The spot under Li Pin's feet tremored fiercely, and the tiles burst into a cloud of dust and stone shards, flying everywhere.

Tapping on the force, Li Pin pounced out like a dragon or ferocious flying beast, heading toward the Core Force martial artist at unbelievable speed.

Eight Enormities True Fire Force!

Chilong!

Li Pin's Eight Enormities was a martial technique he had come up with after combining all the experience he had accumulated over his ten years of martial arts in his past life. It covered all aspects.

Since coming to this world, he hadn't neglected this martial technique. Instead, he tapped into his gift and slowly improved and perfected it. Now, the Eight Enormities True Fire Force's prowess was no longer what it was in the past.

Chilong emphasized the eruption in movements, adding 33 points to the qi and blood level, this allowed him to roam like an actual dragon, arriving right behind the Core Force martial artists after just a few taps.

The Core Force martial artist looked as if his soul had left his body, showing no battle will at all. Under the tremendous shock, he erupted the entirety of his Core Force and darted forward a little more.

He dashed out of the alley.

There were many passersby outside the small alley.

The Core Force martial artist thought that after he had made his escape out of the alley, Li Pin would be wary, and this would then ensure his safety. However, before he could catch his breath, a sound reverberated from behind him.

Swoosh!

A solid wooden rod, that seemed to have been broken off from some discarded furniture, infused with Force cut through the air.

Accuracy!

Stability!

The horrifying acceleration brought by the Force caused the wooden rod to pierce through the Core Force martial artist's head from the back until it was lodged inside his skull, its end poking out of his forehead, covered in blood.

The man's eyes opened wide, and he lost control of his body. He took a few more steps forward before falling to the ground.

Ahhh!

There was a young man and a lady walking side by side near the alley. It was clear they were in the stage of budding feelings, but had yet to reach the stage where they began holding hands. When they saw what happened, they let out horrified screams uncontrollably.

The lady even pounced into the man's arms, shivering non-stop.

The man instantly stopped screaming. He forcibly suppressed his quivering and hugged the young lady and guided her to move back.

The Core Force martial artist opened his mouth at the two of them, seemingly wanting to say something. "Hel—"

However, he wasn't able to utter a single sentence. He lay on the ground, weak, his life slipping away.

Li Pin went up as he restrained his qi and blood. His seething Core Force also gradually settled down.

At the same time, the Innate Qi-Nurturing Technique circulated, and his primordial qi was like a small wisp of refreshing current, passing through his entire body. The weakness, which was similar to how one would feel after starving for three days, rapidly disappeared as his body received nourishment.

It was only now that he took out his martial artist certification and flashed it. "This is an arrest of wanted criminals. If both of you have no issues, please don't crowd around."

"We understand, we understand!" uttered the young man hastily.

He quickly nodded and left with the young lady in his embrace.

As for the fact that what Li Pin showed them was the martial artist certification and not a warrant card.

Who would be able to see it so clearly?

And if it were ordinary people, even if they had seen the card clearly, how would they be able to discern if it was real?

As for whether the young man will try to take things very seriously? Such things usually wouldn't happen in the Taibai Kingdom.

Ever since there were cases a few years back where the Enforcement Bureau arrested a bunch of meddlesome people in the name of obstructing their work or labeled them as accomplices, people started to keep their distance from the members of the Enforcement Bureau.

It was because of this that Li Pin didn't have to worry about being exposed even though he tried using a martial artist certification to pass off as a member of the Enforcement Bureau after killing someone.

After sending the two off, Li Pin dragged the Core Force martial artist's corpse back into the alley. He then took out his phone and made a call.

Very soon, Qi Dongyuan's voice sounded.

—Master Li?

Li Pin kept the story simple. "I was attacked by members of the Peregrine Team and killed two of them in retaliation. The location is in the small alley next to the car park opposite Gourmet Paradise. Send some people to take care of this."

—What!? Someone from the Peregrine Team came to kill you!?

Qi Dongyuan instantly let out a shocking cry through the phone.

Li Pin nodded. "That's right!"

Although the two men had only been tailing him in the beginning, they immediately made a move after he invited them to a battle. This showed that they had come with ill intentions.

To him, having the intention of committing murder was akin to having done it.

—Damn it... they really don't care about the rules....

Qi Dongyuan was enraged.

—I'll head over right away.

"Mmm. You guys can deal with this appropriately. I'll go have my meal first," replied Li Pin.

—Have... have your meal?

Qi Dongyuan didn't know how to react to Li Pin's words.

He was still in the mood to have his meal?

"Will there be any problem?"

—There won't be!

Qi Dongyuan quickly recollected himself.

—Leave this to us.

"Mmhmm," mumbled Li Pin.

He left the small alley to return to Gourmet Paradise. He went to the washroom to wash his hands. He even drew a piece of napkin to wipe off the dust on his shoes.

After he was done, he headed for the private room.

Since he had met the two men and began fighting, only three minutes had passed. The entire thing was extremely fast. However, it took him two minutes to travel to and fro, a minute to make a call, and then another two minutes to clean himself up.

When he returned to the private room Shan Hu had booked, the total time taken was less than ten minutes.

Shan Hu, Li Yunyao, and Lin Xiaolu didn't suspect anything at all.

When Shan Hu saw Li Pin coming, she stood up with the menu. "Master Li...."

However, Li Pin waved his hand in refusal. "I am not familiar with this restaurant. You can just order accordingly. I'll just eat what is served."

"Alright."

Shan Hu had already asked Li Yunyao earlier about Li Pin's preference in food, and in the end, she ordered six dishes, one soup, and one dessert, all things that he should like.

After the order was placed, the group quickly started to chat amicably. Li Pin would occasionally join in the chat the trio were having.

It was as if the life-or-death fight in the small alley next to the car park had never taken place.
