Chapter 104 The Court Arrives: A King-Level Expert—The Ice Sword King

On the other side, Chu Ci was also stunned when she saw the other person disappear.

"So this is what it means to be invisible in other people's eyes."

He used to be the one ambushing others, but now it's his turn to be ambushed. The thought is actually a little exciting.

However, even with his level 15 stealth ability and the enhancement of his anti-stealth level of the Intersection of Reality and Shadow, he still couldn't see Su Hongye's figure.

"Such a high level of stealth, at least 15 or higher."

boom!

At this moment, it seemed that the opponent thought they had seized an opportunity and quickly made a move. Kui Qi reacted very quickly and hurriedly blocked the attack. Dark light and bronze collided in mid-air.

"Tch! What a hassle."

When his attack failed, Su Hongye's body became ethereal and disappeared.

"Wow, this cooldown speed is too fast! Invisibility can be cast almost without cooldown."

Chu Ci felt envious just looking at it.

Kui Qi glanced at him speechlessly. Was there something wrong with this kid's head? Everyone else was coming to kill him, and he was already envious.

In just a few minutes, the two exchanged blows nearly a hundred times. Every attack from the peak eighth-tier assassin was extremely cunning, and several times it almost landed on Chu Ci. As a result, Kui Qi had to concentrate fully.

The martial arts master's special ability is danger perception, which allows him to warn of impending attacks in advance. This is why Su Hongye was able to block attacks even when he was invisible.

"Damn it, this guy's determined to protect this kid. I... wait, why are my health points decreasing?!"

Realizing something was wrong, Su Hongye suddenly looked at Chu Ci. He had been so focused on Kui Qi that he had forgotten how terrifying the kid was.

"It was you! When did you poison me?!"

Chu Ci smiled without saying a word, his eyes narrowed, when suddenly Uncle Kui's voice reached his ears.

"Xiao Ci, listen to Uncle Kui, don't kill him."

"Hmm?" Chu Ci looked at Kui Qi's back with some confusion.

"Why, Uncle Kui? He's trying to kill me!"

Kui Qi shook his head.

"If you could kill him before I make a move, I naturally wouldn't say anything. That would be self-defense. But I represent the Federation, and once I take action, I must judge it fairly from a legal perspective. His crimes will be determined by the Federal Court. If you act recklessly, it would be a blatant violation of law enforcement, which is also a crime. With your current power, you cannot completely escape these rules. Therefore, I hope you will stop and not do anything foolish."

This……

Chu Ci was not stupid, of course. Uncle Kui's reminder to him was very clear. At least for now, he was a victim in the law and was the one who was absolutely favored. But once he killed Su Hongye, even if he felt good now, he would be held accountable by the Federation. It was not worth it.

After all, how could a mere peak eighth-tier cultivator compare to the hegemonic federation of the entire Blue Star? This was a case of losing the big picture for small gains.

Chu Ci's calm yet slightly resentful eyes met Su Hongye's.

The other person's eyes were filled with anger and a hint of panic that an assassin shouldn't have.

Yes, this guy has been a businessman for too long, and he's lost the composure an assassin should have in the face of adversity. What does it matter if we kill him a little slower than usual?

With a thought, Chu Ci stopped the divine poison remaining in Su Hongye's body and ceased to erode his body.

That's right, it's just stopped.

Seeing that his health points were no longer decreasing, Su Hongye breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second he suddenly looked up at the sky, and Kui Qi also looked up at the sky.

The previously cloudless sky was suddenly torn apart, and a figure with a golden longsword at his waist stepped out, his icy blue pupils immediately noticing the three people below.

"The Federal Court is solely responsible for this matter. Everyone must cease all actions immediately, or face execution!"

The authoritative voice, though not loud, reached everyone's ears. As he spoke, the temperature of the entire area seemed to drop, and even Chu Ci's breath emitted white mist, even though it was only early autumn.

"I didn't expect that someone would be a King-level expert, and a newly promoted Ice Sword King in the Tribunal. I thought it would be a high-level professional." Kui Qi's voice was tinged with emotion.

Chu Ci stood there, stunned, staring blankly at the figure in the sky.

King level, which is above the advanced profession.

Tier 1 to 5 are collectively referred to as low-level professionals, Tier 5 to 9 are referred to as mid-level professionals, and Tier 10 and above, which is 1000 to 2000 levels, are collectively referred to as high-level professionals.

After reaching level 2000, if players can complete the King-level missions sent down by the World's Will, they can break through to the King level and become a renowned powerhouse throughout the entire Blue Star.

However, such powerful individuals are extremely rare, holding high positions even within the Federation, making it virtually impossible for ordinary people to even meet them.

As the saying goes, once you enter the King-level Body Transformation Domain, anyone below the King level who enters the domain is practically a lamb to the slaughter. Not only is their strength reduced by more than half, but they don't even have the power to resist.

Judging from the changes in the surrounding environment, this king-level domain seems to be related to ice.

The Ice Sword King slowly descended from the sky, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the three, before quickly locking onto Chu Ci, his serious expression as cold as ancient ice.

"You're Chu Ci, the one who killed two sixth-tier professionals at the peak of the second tier?"

Uh... so this is where they come to find me.

Chu Ci glanced at Uncle Kui for help, but the other man could only give him a helpless look.

There was no other way but to do it myself.

"That's right, I am Chu Ci. May I ask what business the Ice Sword King has with me?"

Seeing that the other party was a little reserved, the Ice Sword King frowned for a moment, but quickly relaxed.

"Don't misunderstand, I was just curious about the report from the guardian of Lanhai City, so I came to take a look. As for my expression, don't worry about it. It's just some so-called side effects of my power."

Hmm? This person doesn't seem as difficult to talk to as they appear.

"That judge is still on duty," Uncle Kui whispered from the side.

He did not address the other party as the Ice Sword King, but rather as the Judge, which not only served as a reminder but also indicated the other party's current stance.

"Oh right, it's working hours now. I'm sorry, I just entered the courtroom and sometimes I do forget my identity. Please forgive me, Guardian of Lanhai City."

Ice Sword King calmly apologized to Kui Qi, explaining that in the Federation's hierarchy, the Guardians and Judges were of equal rank, and therefore their positions should be equal in their work.

He then turned to look at Su Hongye, who was standing there dumbfounded and somewhat flustered. Su Hongye was now like a mouse trembling in the sight of a cat, not daring to move at all.

"Su Hongye, founder of Shanghai Su's Technology Group, I, as a federal judge, convey the court's final verdict—I will execute you immediately!"
