Exploding God

Chapter 1183 Give Me Some Face

Is it possible for any living organisms to survive at the epicenter of a nuclear explosion?

If life could walk on the sun, it could survive at the center of a nuclear explosion.

However, it is clear that rage is not in this category.

His resilience and sense of responsibility were still lacking; he passed away without a word amidst the core temperature reaching tens of millions of degrees Celsius at the moment of the explosion.

As for the other party involved...

Lu Ze spread his right hand outstretched, with his palm as the boundary. On the other side of his palm was the Red Lotus of Hell; behind his palm was the Pure Land of the Human World.

The terrifying red flames that instantly alarmed the US Alliance's Western Pacific base, the entire territory of Japan, and the eastern defense line of Yanhuang were unable to cross his palm even an inch.

After flexing his fingers, Lu Ze casually lowered his hand, ignoring everything around him, his eyes as indifferent as ever.

What is the Crimson Phoenix Scripture? What is the Burning Stars and Controlling the Dipper?

The flames that could burn even planets are contained in the palm of one's hand; the few remaining sparks before one's eyes are but embers between one's fingers.

The seawater a hundred meters below his feet had already evaporated, while the seawater in the deeper parts was still boiling. Lu Ze looked at the planetary rift that had remained undamaged under his protection.

The shaman cannot simply leave like this; there are some things that need to be clarified in person.

Lu Ze lowered his gaze slightly, looking at the Pokémon that had just climbed onto his shoulder.

"Pharaoh, want to take a detour?"

The little ball, which had been half-closing its eyes and seriously examining them, suddenly widened its eyes and let out a powerful "ee" sound. First, it clenched its hands like a bodybuilder showing off his muscles, and then it put them down and patted its stomach hard.

Of course I want to!

And you can also share (brag) about your thrilling experiences, which is exciting just thinking about it.

"It'll be here soon."

Lu Ze looked up at the sky, a smile on his lips, and turned to walk towards the rift.

……

……

Qian Duochao had never felt so desperate.

Before today, as the apex predator, he always looked down upon the world with indifference, until today, when he opened the Fog Plains Passage as the creator of history.

In the instant he was blasted away by the shockwave, he felt a little annoyed, but as his body entered the passage, his mood changed to anticipation and expectation.

Director Qian entered the situation with the mindset of the founder of the channel, so when his vision shifted from light to darkness and the unknown world became within reach, he had already completed all the preparations on a spiritual level.

Let me, Qian, see the light before me...

Director Qian opened his arms and his closed eyes, feeling a surge of energy rushing towards him.

That pure and inexhaustible feeling instantly stirred my emotions.

"Who goes there!"

"Jingyang Iron Guards, form ranks!"

"Just an ordinary person, let's set him up for now..." This sentence was spoken the loudest and in the deepest voice.

It was in very standard Yanhuang language, and there was more to the sentence, but Director Qian was too preoccupied to listen.

Even as his vision was still in the gap between distortion and return to normal, he could already feel several whooshing sounds coming from all around.

Anger surged within me!

—No martial ethics!

Or perhaps it was the phrase "mediocre person" that stung his pride, causing Director Qian's aura to suddenly swell.

The Ten-Star Gale Force, representing the pinnacle of Earth's martial arts, had barely manifested when it was pierced through by eight fierce gusts of wind.

Whizzing--

The eight cold, hard spears pierced through Director Qian's protective aura, and the two spears clashed and locked together forcefully.

It's stuck!

Director Qian's vision finally cleared up...

But at this moment, his slightly thin face was flushed red. He could swear to God that this was the most humiliating moment of his life!

Who would have thought that the sorcerer who orchestrated the behemoth siege and the defection from Modo would end up like a madman with his limbs spread wide, chained to the spot by a security guard?

He had considered rebelling.

However, the aura emanating from these eight warriors wielding large spears was no weaker than his own.

When did the peak of the tenth realm become so cheap?

"Ask him where he's from?"

The same gruff voice rang out again. Qian Duochao looked closely and saw a burly man with a bushy beard standing with his arms crossed, casually glancing over.

In just a moment of eye contact, Qian Duochao felt a cold sweat run down his back.

In the perception of the star source, the outline of that burly man was like a towering peak, and just looking at him was enough to shock people on the spot.

[The aura emanating naturally from him already surpassed that of his peak rage; how...terrifying!]

That's incredible!

Swallowing hard, Director Qian abandoned his plan to escape. He swore he had never seen so many War Kings gathered together in his life.

So why were only giant beasts rushing out of the cyclone back then?

If a group of such fierce men rushed out, the Shanghai Fortress would probably have already fallen.

"Are you deaf?! The High Priest is asking you a question!"

A sharp shout came from the side, and the blade on the spear grew several inches longer. The extreme sense of danger pulled Director Qian back to reality.

"Yes." Director Qian was very cooperative, and his tone was decisive.

In this world, we are at the mercy of others; only those who can advance and retreat at will can be considered true heroes.

"Hmm, someone's already come in so quickly..."

The burly man with a thick beard stroked his chin and muttered to himself. He glanced at Qian Duochao, whose appearance clearly indicated he wasn't a good person, and casually waved his hand, saying, "Take them back first. Once you have a full team, hand them over to the Song family."

"Wait, I have something to say—"

"Who do you think you are, trying to talk to me? Put a bit on him first."

Zhao Luanyan curled his lip in disdain. "What is my status? What is yours?"

As the chief retainer of the Zhao family, I escaped unscathed from the clutches of Tantai Zhongyi and Mr. Lu. To personally lead a team to capture a ten-star guy would be beneath my dignity.

A guard next to him pulled out something that looked like a gag from behind his waist.

I fucking...

Director Qian was so excited he almost exploded on the spot.

Why would you put a bit on yourself like that?

Tolerable or unbearable!

But the eight spears held it firmly in place, making it impossible for it to move.

Director Qian gritted his teeth, watching the iron bit getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but shed tears of grief and indignation.

I never imagined that someone as wise and insightful as myself would fall to such a state...

"The romance scenes are damn rich."

Zhao Luanyan laughed, pointing at Director Qian and grinning. Laughter echoed from the side, and the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from not far away, making Zhao Luanyan's laughter stop abruptly.

"Zhao Gongfeng, could you please give me, Lu, some face? Director Qian is not an outsider."

Lu Ze gently lifted the Star Origin Boundary Curtain with one hand, casually stepping out of the passage as if lifting a curtain, and smiled as he spoke.

Swish!

The rows of Jingyang Iron Guards stood straight in unison, and even Zhao Luanyan subconsciously put his legs together and straightened his upper body, staring at Lu Ze with great focus.

Upon seeing Lu Ze smile and nod at him, his originally stern and rugged face instantly blossomed into a peony-like smile, with every wrinkle radiating warmth from within.

He quickly stepped forward, slapped the gag out of Tie Wei's hand with one hand, and then grabbed Gan Duochao's right hand, which was nowhere to go, with both hands.

"I, Zhao, am utterly blind to your greatness, unaware that Lord Qian is Mr. Lu's distinguished guest. My apologies! Please allow me to host a welcoming banquet for Lord Qian at Longyang Fort later!"

Upon seeing this, the eight iron guards wielding large spears quickly retreated, but inwardly they were filled with resentment. Their own retainer had only been training with Mr. Lu for a month and had already become like this, not even as humble as he was in front of the family head.

Such behavior...

Why isn't it our turn?!

The eight Iron Guards, their faces expressionless, retreated to the back and stood in a row.

Qian Duochao's arm was almost numb from being shaken so much. He looked at the burly, bearded man who had been arrogant at first but was now obsequious, and cursed him dozens or even hundreds of times in his heart. Finally, he managed to force out a smile that was equally genuine.

"We're all friends, we're all friends! It was just that I, Qian, didn't make myself clear, hahaha..."

Zhao Luanyan's smile became even more sincere, and then he turned to look at Lu Ze with admiration and asked, "Mr. Lu, what do you think?"

"I'll say a few words to him, and then you can take him to Songshi New Town."

Zhao Luanyan immediately understood and led his men away, leaving Lu Ze and Qian Duochao alone.

Gan Duochao looked down at his clenched, red palms, then at Lu Ze, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Putting aside the terrifying aftershocks caused by Lu Ze's casual strike at the other end of the passage, the respectful attitude of that group of burly men towards Lu Ze was enough to make him understand the reality.

The patient's family member who once bribed him has now reached the highest point in the world.

Qian Duochao let out a long sigh of relief, his expression shifting from one of frustration to one of composure. "I am deeply grateful and will not hesitate to tell you everything I know."

"It was nothing, no need to mention it." Lu Ze smiled and shook his head, then his expression calmed down. "When did Director Qian join the Motor Organization?"

Three years ago.

"The Lunar Warrior?"

"Yaoyue Shi, Mr. Lu actually knows so much about Modo. Then why did you..." Qian Duochao's tone was hesitant. He still couldn't understand why someone with Lu Ze's strength and status would bother to give him 20 back then.

Lu Ze smiled upon hearing this but did not explain. Could it be that he had calmly entered the 14-star realm in less than a year? This was a realm that had never appeared in history or reality before, and anyone who heard it would only think it was a fantasy.

"I was being presumptuous." Inui remained silent.

"Every event that happens at any given moment has its own historical inevitability," Lu Ze replied meaningfully. "Just like how you launched the behemoth siege in order to obtain the Storm Orb to open the passage."

"You knew all this?" Qian Duochao's heart skipped a beat, his voice filled with disbelief.

His true purpose was never revealed to the world; in fact, he even deceived the entire Modo organization.

"I don't know, but I do know that Director Qian is a man of ideals."

Lu Ze's lame joke completely disarmed Director Qian, who remained silent for a while before bursting into laughter.

"Director Qian, have you ever met Arrogant Lucifer?"

"I've seen it."

"Um, could you give me a brief description? Appearance, physique, clothing, anything is fine."

"I've only seen it once."

Qian Duochao frowned deeply as he carefully recalled the memory fragments forcibly stored in his mind, then said uncertainly:

"He seemed to be in a strange... semi-shadow state."

Lost in thought, Director Qian didn't notice that when he said those words, Lu Ze's previously indifferent gaze suddenly froze, then gradually turned cold.
