Chapter 33 (1/2)
The Heavenly Dragon Eye came with the ability of flight.
As long as conditions were suitable, Gao Xuan could ride on the air currents and fly. This was similar to flying with equipped wings, but it had looser requirements with regards to airflow conditions. It was also more convenient for him to ride the air currents.
Gao Xuan leaped down from the 120-story-tall building, and he floated in the air for tens of meters before taking to the skies again on a rising air current.
His powerful mind power allowed him to easily detect the changes in the air currents. If he wanted to, he could fly in the air for the entire day.
However, there was no real momentum in this kind of flying. It wasn’t very fast, and it had its limitations.
The Heavenly Dragon Eye’s special ability of stealth and infiltration made Gao Xuan transparent. He blended in seamlessly with his environment.
Both optical detection or other scanning methods couldn’t detect Gao Xuan, who was soaring in the night sky.
There were too many flying devices these days. Personal flying devices were extremely common. They severely impacted the orderliness of the traffic in Mingjing CIty and posed a huge safety risk.
The government of Mingjing City had issued a ban on flying. Only people who obtained a flying permit could fly in the skies of Mingjing City.
For this reason, there were many detection devices in the skies of Mingjing City. They were there to prevent flying devices from disrupting order.
Gao Xuan wasn’t relying on a flying device that used external force, so he could ignore the variety of detection devices.
Although he’d been reborn, this was his first time flying with his own ability.
The Heavenly Dragon Eye converted Source Power into formless wings that allowed him to easily ride the air currents. The buildings, flying cars, and pedestrians below him all looked incredibly minuscule and ethereal.
Gao Xuan felt immense joy. This wasn’t the type of joy that came from chemical reactions in the brain after sex. It came from the freedom of soaring through the sky and dancing as he wished. It was a soothing joy that came from deep within the soul.
The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada also vibrated its six wings and let out a joyful cry from his soul.
The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada loved the air. It loved to fly. The emotions Gao Xuan felt when he was flying correlated with the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada’s instincts.
In a situation like this, Gao Xuan’s spiritual perception became abnormally sensitive.
The world that he observed was covered in many lines of light. These lines of light had him at the center and formed a complex giant web.
The brightest and strongest line of light was connected directly with Yun Qingshang. That was the person he had the deepest connection with.
Yun Qingshang was sitting by the side of the pool and staring at the deep night sky. It was as if she were waiting for him to return.
Another line of light was connected to Wei Zhenzhen. Wei Zhenzhen was lying on his large comfortable bed, half-naked. Her expression was that of satisfaction and bliss. She was fast asleep.
Xu Yin, Jiang Xuejun, Wei Yue, Zhao Yunlong, An Hui, Peng Yuanshan, as well as everyone who he’d seen before or had dealings with appeared on this large web.
Gao Xuan could see what these people were doing from a mysterious mental connection.
However, this expended a great deal of Source Power and mind power. There wasn’t much point in doing it.
Gao Xuan blocked off all of the irrelevant people and only kept the line that was connected to Zhao Yunlong.
Through this invisible mental connection, Gao Xuan immediately locked onto Zhao Yunlong’s coordinates. He adjusted his posture midair, then flew toward the northwest like a rocket.
Zhao Yunlong hadn’t gone anywhere else today. He was at home reporting to his father, Zhao Feng, what had happened earlier today.
Zhao Feng, who was sitting on the sofa, had thick eyebrows and eyes that were set wide apart. He was tall and muscular. He had a gloomy face, and he looked exceptionally authoritative.
Zhao Yunlong had never seen Zhao Feng laugh before. He felt a mixture of fear and respect toward his father. He didn’t even dare to sit in front of him.
“Father, that Gao Xuan today was really creepy. He was so handsome it was unnatural. I don’t think any woman would be able to resist him.”
Zhao Yunlong lowered his head and said carefully, “The arrogant Wei Zhenzhen was dumped once by Gao Xuan. However, the second he waved his hand, she stuck to him like a puppy. I don’t think there’s any other way.”
“So you’ve thought about killing him?” Zhao Feng was a little disappointed. “If you killed Gao Xuan, is Wei Zhenzhen yours?”
Zhao Yunlong hung his head even lower. “She might become mine after I kill Gao Xuan, but I definitely won’t have a chance with her if we don’t kill Gao Xuan.
He paused for a moment before continuing, “It’s not like I like Wei Zhenzhen. I just want to get into her good books for the company and you.”
Zhao Yunlong thought about the indignance he felt being a lackey and became a little agitated. He raised his head and told Zhao Feng, “Even if I didn’t need to kill him to get Wei Zhenzhen, Gao Xuan made me feel humiliated, so he deserves to die.”
He then said with a ferocious expression, “After Wei Zhenzhen falls in my hands, I’ll make her a dog. I’ll turn her into a b*tch that anyone can toy with.”
Zhao Yunlong realized that he’d gone too far and glanced at Zhao Feng uneasily. “Father, I was a little out of line.”
However, Zhao Feng smiled. “A man has to be fierce. Only then can he accomplish great things.”
Zhao Yunlong didn’t expect to be praised by his father, and his back straightened a bit.
Zhao Feng sighed inwardly when he looked at his son like this. He still felt that his son was too childish. However, being fierce was a good thing, so he shouldn’t lecture him.
He asked Zhao Jun, who was by his side, “How are your investigations coming along?”
Gao Xuan wasn’t an important person, but they had to pay attention to his connection with Wei Zhenzhen.
It would be troublesome if they angered Wei Yue.
Zhao Jun bowed slightly toward Zhao Feng. He gently tapped on his smartwatch to access the screen. “Gao Xuan is from a tribe in the White Dragon Mountain Range and was recruited to the Mingjing University as an exception because he once helped their expedition team. He is currently living in Xu Yin’s house…”
Information concerning Gao Xuan’s identity was simple to obtain and straightforward. Zhao Jun had managed to thoroughly investigate him through an internal system.
“He isn’t connected to anyone important,” Zhao Jun concluded. “It wouldn’t be troublesome to eliminate him. The main concern is how the Yuanlong Company would react.”
Gao Xuan was Wei Zhenzhen’s boyfriend after all. No matter how much of a scumbag he was, they might make Wei Yue unhappy if they interfered and dealt with Gao Xuan.
Zhao Feng looked at Gao Xuan’s face on the screen. He had to admit that his son was right. This man was impeccably handsome. His closed eyes even gave him an indescribable evil aura.
He thought for a moment, then said, “Eliminate him. Deal with the girl by the surname of Yun too while you are at it. Make sure you do it cleanly.”
It was not a problem for them to kill people from the bottom rung of society. In this world, no one cared about the lives of such people.
Since they were going to take action, they had to make a clean job of it and not leave behind any traces.
Even though Wei Yue was a forceful person, she wouldn’t have a falling out with the Zhao family over a stranger.
As for what Wei Zhenzhen thought, that wasn’t important.
Zhao Jun nodded. As long as Zhao Feng gave the word, killing two kids would be incredibly easy.
Zhao Feng waved his hand. “All right. You guys can leave.”
Right after he said this, he suddenly became alert and instinctively took a few steps back.
