Master of the End Times Chapter 159 – Xiao Bai’s Promotion

Chapter 159: Xiao Bai’s Promotion

Still, the making of battle costumes for Xiao Bai came first.

Though An Zhengwei was taken aback by Qin Feng’s decision to waste the valuable materials on the gown, he abided by the customer’s desire. This was not the first time he had seen a man spending generously to please his lady.

They finalized the design of the remaining equipment and moved on to other materials Qin Feng wished to lay off. The variety of cores and materials Qin Feng had collected from Han Town were valued at 300 million per market price.

“After deducting the 100 million expense on equipment production, you may opt to use the rest on F-tier beast king cores.”

On top of that, Qin Feng added another 200 million to purchase a total of six beast king cores.

“Prioritize my order. I wish to see it done within two days.”

“Please don’t worry. We will have our best smith on it. It will be perfected in no time.”

Qin Feng nodded and left the auction house very much satisfied.

In the next two days, Qin Feng and Bai Li did not take another step outside of their hotel room. They did not even go out for meals and ordered food through room service.

All the F-tier cores had been given to Bai Li while Qin Feng saved the E-tier core for himself. He won it from the arena.

Absorb!

Qin Feng gripped the crystal core tightly and energy within the core flowed into Qin Feng rapidly.

Cores would usually disappear instantly as soon as Qin Feng had triggered his ability. But this time the core shrunk at an observable speed. The mass runes merged steadily with Qin Feng’s conscious realm.

Qin Feng was prepared for it and hastily fused the incoming rune into his gem of darkness.

The gem promptly stained the runes and transformed them into mutated Hellfire. Those were then imprinted on Qin Feng’s own diamond core.

The influx of runes created radiating stripes on the core. The entire process lasted until Qin Feng had absorbed about a hundred thousand fire runes. Throughout the process, Qin Feng’s consciousness was also strengthened continuously by the incoming energy.

His conscious energy had made a huge leap thanks to the E-tier beast king core. He reached the next stage with ease.

F7 tier, then transitioned smoothly to F8. Without any delay, it burst right through the F9-tier barrier.

It stopped right in front of the E-tier gate. His journey to Chengyang and the battle experience he gained through the Spring Hunting Ground had no doubt accelerated his conscious energy way past his physical strength.

Bai Li had assimilated three beast king cores by the time Qin Feng arose from his meditation. He stopped her from feasting on the rest. He would not forget the overpowering aura she released when she first attained the F-tier status. It was best not to alert anyone while they were still here in Chengyang.

Two days later, the Wanzong organization had delivered the equipment as promised.

Qin Feng had tailored made himself a battle suit. It was silver in color and looked no different from a normal outfit. However, it would only deceive the eyes of a low-ranked monster. An aptitude user or an intelligent beast could instantly tell how luxurious the suit was with the number of runes emanating from it.

The suit came in a full set encompassing the shirt, gloves, belt, pants, and boots.

Runic equipment were usually made in the form of inner wears like vests or leggings—a compromise between maximum protection and least material usage. However, since Qin Feng had more than enough to spare, he converted them into a complete battle suit. Moreover, there were two extra inner vests, which Qin Feng intended to give to Zhou Hao and Wang Chen.

Wang Chen was no doubt a commendable subordinate.

Qin Feng planned to mold him into one of the major leaders of Fengli in the future. He envisioned that he would at least become a general.

Qin Feng finally decided to leave Chengyang after he had spent the last two days being confined in the hotel room. The two patrols that followed him were equally excited too. Qin Feng’s departure meant that they had accomplished their mission. There was too much uncertainty in guarding Qin Feng. Anything could have happened if Qin Feng were to suddenly act out of the blue, or those from the Xin family were to come to take revenge.

The hovercar left the city and went up the highway quickly. After Chengyang city was out of sight, Qin Feng took a sharp turn and disappeared into the woods.

Dark fogs began to rise around them. Nobody could see the hovercar now as it had been shrouded by the mist.

“Alright, you can consume the core now.” Qin Feng said to Bai Li. She was on the verge of promotion. Since there was no safe place for her to absorb the core in Chengbei as well, it was best to just wrap it up here.

Bai Li wasted no time and absorbed the remaining cores.

At the same time, twenty kilometers away from Qin Feng’s hover car, three E-tier aptitude users were hiding at the side of the main road.

“Why is there no sign of him? Has Qin Feng figured out our plan beforehand?”

“I don’t think so. Stay alert.”

“I wonder whether he is as strong as the rumors say.”

“He left the arena immediately after he killed Xin Guang. That skill was indeed powerful but it must have taken a toll on him. Otherwise, why would he hide inside the hotel for the last few days?”

“Just be careful!”

The three of them dared not take Qin Feng lightly.

One of them was an honorable elder of the Xin family. His position was like that of Tao Shichang but had an even higher reputation and final says in the family.

The other two were mercenaries hired by the Xin family with a huge bounty on Qin Feng’s head. If they manage to kill Qin Feng, 100 million would be awarded. Even if they were to fail, the Xin family had promised to compensate them for their effort with 10 million.

They happily took the offer because sometimes it was easier to kill a man than a beast.

No matter how powerful Qin Feng might be, he would not be able to take on three E-tier aptitude users at the same time. After all, Qin Feng was only at F-tier. They believed that Qin Feng would not survive their concerted assault.

Unfortunately, Qin Feng did not show up as expected after twenty minutes.

Just when they thought that their hidden ambush had ended in vain, a terrifying aura befell them from afar. The pressure from a beast king spread across the atmosphere and destabilized spacetime. Some small spatial rifts began to emerge around them.

Their faces turned pale instantly.

“E-tier beast king!” Even one hundred E-tier aptitude users would be wiped out in an instant by such a horrendous beast.

The three of them were restless.

“Qin Feng must have fled. There’s no point waiting any longer. We should head back.” The elder from the Xin family was clearly terrified.

The other two had no reason to object and they headed back to Chengyang at once.

In the wild, no matter how hard Xiao Bai tried to contain her power, the emperor aura still leaked out profusely and startled the beasts around them. Moving creatures near them had all fled for their lives.

“Alright. Let’s get back on the road.” Qin Feng turned back to the road and dispelled the dark runes.

The car sped up steadily on the empty road. Qin Feng did not even realize it when he passed by a car from the opposite direction.

However, those three in the car had noticed Qin Feng.

“The car just now!”

“It’s Qin Feng!”

“Turn around and follow him!”

The elder braked hard, made a u-turn, and stomped hard on the accelerator to chase after Qin Feng.

Qin Feng, who was driving leisurely up to that point, noticed the pursuer immediately and scanned the car with his conscious energy. His face turned wicked. ‘You have a death wish? I will grant you that!’
