The Favored Son of Heaven

Li Mo’s mobile armor lay on the ground. Strands of black smoke rose from various parts of its body. The outer armor was just as he had said. There wasn’t any damages. It was impossible for Qin Fen to break open the mobile armor and bring out the person inside to kill.

The surrounding spectators all smiled. It looked like this Thirty-Six Hours just wanted to vent for a moment.

As this thought flashed in their minds, they could hear Qin Fen, who walked before the mobile armor, coldly said, “You are already dead.”

“Dead? How is that possible? I am still alive!” Li Mo roared without a shred of weakness. “Thirty-Six Hours, you are indeed very amazing. However, I have destroyed your legend! Though I cannot kill you, you are unable to defeat me or kill me! This is a draw! I am the first person to force you into a draw as the conclusion for a fight.”

“You?” Qin Fen’s smile was extremely disdainful. He gently wagged his finger. “I said it before. You are already dead. This attack of mine just now, you feel like it hadn’t done anything, right? Then let me explain it to you for a bit. When I first fired, it wasn’t for the sake of piercing your mobile armor. That was always an impossible matter from beginning to end. However, don’t you know? This mobile armor of yours is of the very first generation. No repairs have been done to it at all. It possesses many weak points. For example, the spots I shot at. As long as there is enough force of impact and shots to these points, it is sufficient to have the components there temporarily fail for about twenty minutes. This turns your mobile armor into an unmovable pile of scrap metal for twenty minutes….”

Cold sweats appeared on Li Mo’s back. The other spectators really didn’t know what to say. What sort of divinity was this Thirty-Six Hours? He actually was able to maintain a clear head in such circumstances, and he was even able to carry out his plans? And what was with his shelling just now?

“As for the second round of attacks.” Qin Fen raised a leg and kicked the mobile armor that lay on the ground. “I was never counting on smashing this firm fellow into pieces. My target has been very simple. It has been to break it! To completely let it lose its ability to move, as well as…”

Qin Fen jumped onto the mobile armor. Use his foot to stomp on the cockpit and said, “Destroying its opening system.”

Li Mo’s body involuntarily turned stiff. The other people had even greater reactions. They looked at Qin Fen as if they were looking at the monster. They yelled in their hearts, this Thirty-Six Hours is way too venomous.

“From now on, any time you log onto the Sky Battle Net, you will appear in this monster of metal. And this monster will be laying right here, not able to move even an inch. Until…” Qin Fen chose to sit on the body of the mobile armor. “Until you can’t take it anymore. Until you kill yourself inside of it.”

Li Mo shook his head over and over when he heard Qin Fen’s words. “No way! No way! You are lying to me! You are a liar! Thirty-Six Hours, you want to trick me into opening up my cockpit. This has to be the case!”

Qin Fen didn’t even feel like sparing this vile and repulsive person a glance. He jumped off the mobile armor and slowly supped his gaze to the other observers of the other sects. “I have two things I want to announce. The first: the founding of Dragon Hall was done only for the sake of making money. I have no other thoughts of expansion, so I hope that Dragon Hall can coexist peacefully with everyone. The second: Dragon Hall generally will not take the initiative to attack any sect. However, Dragon Hall will counter attack with all its strength if attacked. Today, this Li Mo of Beauty of Rivers and Mountains has attacked Dragon Hall, so he has left the stage in this manner. Whoever dares help him open up his cockpit will be declaring war against me and Dragon Hall.”

Qin Fen’s roared words were powerful and resonating. Quite a few sect members nodded their heads practically subconsciously. They instinctively chose not to provoke Thirty-Six Hours.

The other sect members who didn’t nod their heads could only look at Li Mo, who lay fallen on the ground, with the gazes as if they looked at a clown. Nobody would cheer for such a person if that person scored a victory. Even fewer would mourn for his loss.

Qin Fen arrived by Zhang Xiangyang’s side. He pointed at Li Mo, who despaired within the mobile armor. “Wait until he kills himself, and find a vehicle to drag this thing off to sell. We can make a bit of money from this.”

“No problem.” Zhang Xiangyang pointed at the three M134 Vulcan Cannon’s and Type 92 battalion gun and asked, “What about those?”

Qin Fen muttered to himself for a little bit. “Leave one of the cannon guns and sell the other. Leave one of the M134 Vulcan Cannons and sell the other. We can make a bit of money from one, and we can increase our defense power with the other. It’s quite perfect.”

“Okay! Okay!”

Soon a wave of hurried and chaotic footsteps rang forth. A large middle-age man stood near the mobile armor. He clapped his hand hard and smiled. “Thirty-Six Hours, I haven’t been wrong about you at all! You will certainly be a valiant general of our Even Sky Tower in the future!”

“Even Sky Tower?” The name sounded familiar to Qin Fen. He thought about it for a little bit before recalling. Even Sky Tower was the organization that proclaims itself to be the hegemon of one-third of the territory of the neighboring street.

“Apologies, I am not interested in going through a merger.” Qin Fen waved his hand. “What I said before, you should’ve heard it too. I just want to make money. That is it, and nothing more.”

“Haha, you should be a young man, right?” The large man laughed, the sound containing a bit of grandness and experience. “Becoming part of my, Robert’s, Even Sky Tower will grant you quite a generous remuneration. What do you think about this?”

Qin Fen silently looked at Robert. He never thought that this organization, which brims with the flavor of the East, was actually led by a fair-haired and blue-eyed Westerner.

Qin Fen responded completely expressionless. “As an employee, one must generate profits that are several dozen times the generous remuneration he would receive in order for things to be okay. You think I am an idiot? It is very stupid of you to raise this enticement of a remuneration.”

Qin Fen spoke again without even waiting for Robert to speak. “Though my strength right now isn’t that powerful, I still have a bit of fame. Joining your Even Sky Tower is just giving you guys free advertisement. Today’s battle will certainly increase my fame. You’re certainly not qualified to invite me into your organization.”

Robert’s mouth was agape and his tongue was tied as he looked at Qin Fen. He even began to doubt that the man before his eyes wasn’t revealing his true colors. He suspected that the man was no young man.

The man had thought about so many things in regards to making money in such a short period of time. This was something that a young man, who was concentrated on the martial dao, shouldn’t be doing!

Unless… this man was an adult with ample societal experience. His thoughts were quite well spread, and this was how he was able to perform this analysis.

The more Robert thought about it the more he felt that this idea was correct. He began to chuckle.

Young men were quite impulsive and hot-blooded. It was hard for them to turn back once they made a decision. As for an adult, one only needed to know the stakes and the margin for mediation would exist.

“Thirty-Six Hours, don’t you fail to appreciate someone’s kindness! The fact that we of Even Sky Tower have taken a liking to you is your good fortune….”

Robert had come with the crowd, and someone from that crowd suddenly yelled loudly. But before that person could finish yelling, his mouth gaped as he didn’t dare to continue speaking.

In an instant, Qin Fen seized the gun from Zhang Xiangyang’s hand and simply locked onto the man, who had yelled arrogantly, within his sights.

All these people had seen Qin Fen use a single gun to mow down twenty or so enemies. They had hidden in secret places as they watched this magnificent feat. Naturally, they knew that Qin Fen’s marksmanship and accuracy was at the very highest stage. They didn’t dare to provoke him with words.

“Ha ha ha, Thirty-Six Hours, you are far too impulsive.” As Robert spoke, he simply treaded forward a step. He raised his arm and extended five fingers, making his hand look like a dragon’s claw. He grabbed the gun barrel that faced the man and moved it over.

The corner of Qin Fen’s eyebrows shot up. This Robert was being too domineering. The instant his palm grabbed the gun’s barrel, Qin Fen gave the gun a shake, immediately causing the entire gun to fall apart. Roberts Dragon Form Capturing Palm had no target for a moment, his hand awkwardly grasping nothingness a few times. His face carried a bit of embarrassment but also a lot of shock as he smiled.

Instantly dismantling a gun completely… He didn’t give the enemy any chance of grabbing the gun in a counterattack. He is quite decisive and has good guts. Zhang Xiangyang secretly smiled at the side.

Qin Fen looked at Robert with quiet tranquility. The words that came out of his lips weren’t salty nor weak. “I could have opened fire and shot you dead just now before dismantling the gun. Do you believe me?”

Robert withdrew his Dragon Form Capturing Palm. He laughed outspoken and straightforwardly, “I believe you! You have given me face. So, I will give you face as well. I had come here today with the intention of a certain merger of sects. However, since you have given me face by not killing my disciple just now, I will give you one chance. Take on three of my attacks. If you can take them, I will not say anything else. I will lower my head and walk away. Otherwise… humph… my Even Sky Tower is not as easy to deal with as Beauty of Rivers and Mountains.”

“Three moves?”

Qin Fen smiled. The Guardian Dragon Deity Chaotic Dance was still in its early stages. There are many imperfections with it. He really needed to do battle with opponents he didn’t quite understand, and absorb these experiences in order to engage in improvements. So it turned out such opportunities came true just by thinking them.

“What’s wrong? Are you scared?” Robert suddenly split his legs apart, stabbing them into the ground in a Great Horse Stance. “If you’re scared, then you can try making your way past me. I can accept that as the same as you taking on three of my moves.”

Qin Fen’s smile didn’t lessen at all. Such tactics of reverse psychology were far too simple in level. It was so simple that Qin Fen didn’t feel like using Squad Leader Hao’s techniques and counter trick this Robert, who looked to be experienced and grand.

“Three moves is fine with me. Even thirty moves is not a problem. It’s just that…” Qin Fen dragged his tone and rubbed his index finger with his thumb endlessly. “You should know my rules, right?”

Robert was stunned. The people he brought with him were stunned as well. They had seen greedy people before, but they had never met someone like Qin Fen, who wanted money more than his life. The first thought that came to Qin Fen’s mind when faced with a meteor level expert was not victory or defeat but money!

They were stupefied for a couple of seconds.

Robert smiled. He really had been scared that Thirty-Six Hours would choose to make his way past him by going between his legs. Such a person capable of doing this would have skin so thick that he could face thousands upon thousands of people’s condemnation. This was a man who brought the nickname of being a money-sucking vampire to great heights of development. Clearly, this man didn’t care about face.

The members of the other sects watching the two all formed by Qin Fen’s side and walked over.

This was a fight between four-stars and five-stars! This was a fight where one fought another above his level. This was something that very rarely appeared in the Sky Battle Net! And this four-star warrior had just challenged fourteen sects. Right now this money-sucking vampire, this Thirty-Six Hours, had the strongest limelight and strongest momentum.

On the forums for the four-star warriors, many people called Thirty-Six Hours to be an unparalleled existence. Today might just be the day where his undefeated golden body would be broken.

People automatically formed a combat circle around them. Qin Fen’s face was as wooden as an ancient pine, lacking any expression whatsoever. His eyes were as deep and profound as the moonlit nights. They were tranquil and mysterious.

Robert was really puzzled by Qin Fen state. The man was a four-star warrior and he faced a five-star warrior, yet he was not the slightest bit excited nor the slightest bit nervous? Could it be that this man thought that they were fighting on the same level? Not against someone on a level higher?
