The message Aunt Liu heard was that Kushnier was introduced to make contact with Kleis.

Kleis is the second Vice Planet Governor of Star No. 4, which makes him the third in command on this planet.

The position of Executive Officer is not entirely determined by cultivation level, so even though Kushnier is Supreme, he can’t ignore the counterpart.

Aunt Liu managed to investigate the matter very timely; these two are scheduled to meet for the second time tonight.

The informant is a famous chef who is excellent at cooking, and he is the head chef for tonight.

This chef once acquired several ancient recipe manuals, significantly boosting his reputation.

Since then, his passion for archaeology has reached new heights, and he is currently actively applying for regular status.

The chef doesn’t know a lot, but he heard that the two had met once before.

However, it was purely a meeting to get acquainted, as Kushnier was quite tough, and the communication wasn’t smooth.

There must be some reasons they are sitting down for a meal together this time.

But the chef can only provide this much information.

Being one of the top chefs on Star No. 4, he only needs to focus on cooking. He can go in to offer a toast, but accompanying them is out of the question.

As for eavesdropping? Sorry, he is just a Modified Warrior and doesn’t have that kind of ability.

Of course, he has some other requests from the Earth Scholars, like quick approval for his status change and ensuring he isn’t implicated.

But those are minor matters and not worth mentioning, and Aunt Liu didn’t bring them up.

She formally stated that we have the time and place figured out, but as for more detailed information... sorry.

After all, Kushnier is Supreme. To eavesdrop on their conversation, one must at least be Supreme too!

In fact, even a Supreme might not have the confidence to sneak past an opponent of equivalent cultivation level.

Aunt Liu’s stance was clear: I’ve provided the information, and you need to investigate the details.

Qu Jianlei hesitated before speaking, ”Though it might be nonsense, I still want to ask... aren’t technological means feasible?”

”No,” Aunt Liu shook her head and replied decisively, ”The organization indeed has strong technological means.”

”But firstly, they are not handy, and secondly... after all, it’s the third in command of the administrative star, so there’s no chance.”

Qu Jianlei nodded, ”Okay, it’s already very challenging, leave the rest to me.”

Aunt Liu gave him a strange look but said nothing more.

However, Xiang Xue couldn’t help herself, and she asked, ”That’s a Supreme, very dangerous, are you going by yourself?”

Qu Jianlei gave her a slight smile, ”Don’t ask too much, you’ve already provided enough information.”

Xiang Xue was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, ”That Steve from Wangjiang Tower on Star No. 2... did you kill him?”

Qu Jianlei was stunned, staring at her in a daze for seven or eight seconds before smiling and replying.

”To be honest... if faced with Steve, I have the possibility to retreat unscathed.”

Although slightly conservative, what he said was indeed quite candid.

”Come on,” Xiang Xue wrinkled her cute little nose; she seemed a bit naive but wasn’t foolish at all.

”To give such a detailed response this time, considering your habit of hiding your capabilities... there’s a ninety percent chance you killed Steve.”

Aunt Liu was intrigued, thoughtfully looking at the man in front of her.

”Don’t attract hate for me,” Qu Jianlei smiled wryly, then waved his hand, ”If the word gets out, I won’t have any peace.”

Xiang Xue nodded confidently, ”It really was you who did it. Don’t worry, I won’t say anything... right, Aunt Liu?”

Aunt Liu looked up at the sky and said expressionlessly, ”I’ve been a bit irritable lately, my hearing isn’t great.”

Qu Jianlei started hoping for rain so he could better hide himself.

But unfortunately, he didn’t possess the ability to conjure wind or rain, though fortunately, it began to get windy near dusk.

Then he realized that the convenience of wind was no less than rainfall.

The meeting place for Kushnier and the third in command was in a high-end villa area, with over a hundred villas.

As the third in command, Kleis wasn’t lacking in venues for gatherings like estates, although this place was high-end, it did have many eyes around.

But Qu Jianlei could understand why they chose to meet here.

With people coming and going, their meeting wouldn’t be so conspicuous.

A remote luxury estate is likely to draw others’ attention, making it easier for adversaries to monitor.

Thus, their choice to meet here actually indicates that they genuinely want to discuss important matters.

Qu Jianlei arrived here at seven o’clock in the evening, by then it had already been dark for a while.

However, the two had agreed to meet at eight, so he had plenty of time.

Only, the target villa was already strictly guarded.

Although outwardly there was not much protection to be sensed, only two guards stood at the door.

It seemed to be merely a security-conscious household.

But in reality, Qu Jianlei could detect at least twenty concealed presences inside and several cameras in the shadows.

Overall, though, the number of cameras was not excessive, leaving some blind spots.

This was, however, aligned with the prevailing opinion among the Imperial high-rank: protection shouldn’t rely solely on equipment and instruments; the key is still to depend on people.

Instruments may fail, become damaged, or even be compromised by network experts, turning into a tool for the enemy.

People are different. Hiring a few more experts is more reliable than high-tech instruments.

Of course, if funds are tight, you can only opt for more equipment installations.

Qu Jianlei highly suspects that the camera’s blind spots are traps, with many people watching.

Fortunately, it’s windy right now, making it easier for him to conceal himself.

He infiltrated directly from downwind, a position that doesn’t easily reveal his aura and is convenient for perception.

A convoy of four cars arrived first at nearly eight o’clock and drove straight into the villa.

Two minutes later, a high-powered motorcycle zoomed in like lightning.

The rider didn’t wear a helmet, only sunglasses, with shoulder-length hair styled into a ponytail, fluttering in the wind.

Wearing sunglasses at night seems awkward no matter how you look at it.

But Qu Jianlei immediately recognized him. This guy must be Kushnier, exuding a strong Wasteland vibe.

Wearing sunglasses at night is indeed strange… but what if someone tells you these have thermal imaging capabilities?

So some things can’t be interpreted at face value.

The motorcycle made a sharp turn at the villa door and stopped. The guard at the door asked for identification.

Kushnier’s spiritual power fluctuated slightly, and the guard immediately backed off, respectfully bowing.

Others might not know what happened, but Qu Jianlei perceived it.

Kushnier released spiritual power, exerting pressure only on the guard.

The guard sensed the pressure and immediately confirmed that the main character had arrived, hence he retreated and apologized. This aura is more effective than identification.

Directed spiritual power release? Qu Jianlei could do it too, but Kushnier controls it freely and is outstanding even among the Supreme.

Both parties entered the house. After a few polite exchanges, they began serving the dishes.

For an eight o’clock gathering, what’s on the menu isn’t all that important, but both parties are Superpower Warriors, so eating more isn’t an issue.

As the wind grew stronger and mixed with dust, Qu Jianlei expanded his perception a bit.

However, his heart was tense, still fresh from his mental duel with Steve.

The mutual probing before the duel was the most impressionable contest since his transmigration.

Had Granny Jia not intervened, he couldn’t imagine how the results would have turned out.

Before Steve was ambushed, he barely made any defenses, and even then, suffered severe backlash.

If his opponent had struck first, preparing the broken hairpin against mental attacks, he would have stood no chance.

It’s a blessing from his ancestors to have escaped!

So when facing Kushnier of the same realm, being cautious is not excessive.

However, the subsequent reaction from his opponent puzzled Qu Jianlei; the Supreme inside seemed oblivious.

After a while, he reinforced his perception, but Kushnier continued chatting casually, even jubilantly.

Could it be a disguise? Qu Jianlei had to speculate.

The wind outside was a bit intense right now, but it’s merely at a level five or six, barely enough to obscure Supreme perception?

After waiting for about ten minutes, Qu Jianlei hardened his resolve and amplified his perception again.

No choice, the previous perception was still lacking, unable to sense their conversation contents.

So when it’s time to take risks, one must gamble, and Qu Jianlei wasn’t short of courage for a life-or-death gamble.

Of course, he was also prepared to make a getaway at any moment.

In such windy weather, as long as the opponent is somewhat concerned about Fengrao City’s reaction, he’s confident he can escape.

After enhancing his perception, he tolerated not moving for about ten minutes, unexpectedly, the opponent still showed no response.

So he couldn’t resist enhancing his perception a little more, inwardly warning himself this was the very last time.

Not because he’s indecisive, mainly because… he still can’t hear clearly. There’s no choice but to enhance.

Finally, fortunately, Kushnier reacted this time.

He was listening to Kleis say something, then slightly raised his brow, releasing spiritual perception.

Qu Jianlei instantly withdrew his perception.

At the moment, he was hiding atop a big tree outside the courtyard wall, strenuously controlling himself to align with Wood and Wind Attribute.

His cultivation in convergence wasn’t perfect, not thoroughly refined.

Concealing from A-level perception wasn’t difficult, but deceiving the Supreme relied on luck.

But today luck was on his side, the wind shook the tree branches repeatedly and leaves rustled loudly.

Spiritual perception isn’t linked to sight, hearing, or smell, yet it still gets affected by such weather.

Kushnier’s spiritual perception found nothing and withdrew directly.

Just like the initial time he pressed the guard, it was very brief, controlled freely.

Though this brief spiritual fluctuation was sensed by an A-level guard.

His brow furrowed, releasing perception in response.

After perceiving for about ten seconds, he gained nothing, then looked at Kushnier in surprise, ”What was that...”
