Super Gene Hunting Ground

Everyone at the scene was astounded!

What? Yang Xiao actually killed Xie Jun in just two moves, and Xie Jun was an enhanced warrior of the advanced level.

Yang Xiao and the others might not know that Xie Jun’s soul skill, Bear-man Frenzy, also had a very formidable aspect, which was an instantaneous doubling of his defense attribute.

Usually, when Xie Jun boasted about this soul skill in front of his subordinates, he would let them hack at him with knives and swords without sustaining a single injury.

Xie Jun came to challenge Yang Xiao with confidence only because of this strong trump card; otherwise, merely being at the advanced level of enhancement wouldn’t have given him the confidence.

However, Xie Jun never understood how Yang Xiao, using some divine skill, managed to slash through his exceedingly high defense with a single sword stroke—impossible, right?

That was also why, before he fell, he pointed at Yang Xiao and uttered one word, ”You?” He truly died with his eyes still open in disbelief!

With just two moves, Yang Xiao killed Xie Jun, causing Zhou Hua and the fifteen thousand people behind him to tremble with fear, none daring to utter a sound, all staring dumbfoundedly at Yang Xiao.

What happened to being invincible? What happened to level suppression? All just fleeting clouds!

The shock was equally intense on Yang Xiao’s side; except for Lan Xin, who knew about Yang Xiao’s incredibly sharp and overwhelmingly fierce Bronze Divine Sword, nobody else knew.

Gong Yu, Xiao Zhe, Xia Luo, Zhao Gang, Huang Wen, Qin Yu, Deng Xiao, and even Monk Ben Yin were all left dumbstruck.

What kind of tactics does this kid Yang Xiao have? It’s truly unimaginable.

In a high-rise building at a distance, the owner of the Genetic Store, Gu Bo, also looked solemn.

Yang Xiao leaped more than twenty meters, aided by the power of ancient martial arts, but what kind of deadly weapon did he use to cleave Xie Jun in two from head to toe with one strike?

This was simply unfathomable.

Even under the most unusual circumstances, for Yang Xiao, with intermediate enhancement cultivation, to defeat Xie Jun—it shouldn’t have been such a sharp victory!

”Master, it seems Yang Xiao has a divine weapon that surpasses ordinary capabilities; ordinary weapons, even those +10 in strength, wouldn’t achieve such an effect.”

Gu Bo nodded and said,

”We need to keep an eye on Yang Xiao in the future; this kid is a bit sinister, and I always feel that his evolution process is beyond our control.”

”Master, do we need to report this matter to the Fourth Prince?”

”Not now. The situation is still unclear. Surpassing levels to defeat an opponent isn’t something rare. Keep a close watch on Yang Xiao’s actions in the future to see if we can identify what weapon he used today.”

”Yes.”

...

Yang Xiao being able to defeat Xie Jun was all within his own expectations; defeating Xie Jun this time, besides his own level enhancement power, was more significantly due to the stronger Qinggong and speed provided by his cultivation of ancient martial arts. That stroke of the sword, along with the power of the Bronze Divine Sword, also came from his recent cultivation of ancient martial arts which elevated his understanding and mastery of swordsmanship.

That one stroke, whether in terms of speed, strength, accuracy, or positioning, was just right, a flawless sword strike.

Yang Xiao is now not just a powerful figure from genetic evolution, he has gradually integrated the attributes of strength, agility, defense, and wisdom from genetic evolution into his skills in ancient martial arts, becoming a comprehensive master.

Previously, the simple genetic evolution of Strength, Agility, Defense, and Wisdom attributes could not be effectively integrated, or to say, could not unleash the maximum combined efficiency of the four.

However, the ancient martial cultivation of Xuanming Country has always emphasized the integrated operation of various abilities. Through a half-year cultivation of ancient martial arts, Yang Xiao now integrates the genetically evolved attributes of Strength, Agility, Defense, Wisdom, and the internal strength, qinggong, and skills of ancient martial cultivation, gradually achieving a qualitative improvement in his combat power.

Even Yang Xiao himself had not fully realized this, he only felt his combat power becoming increasingly refined.

Yang Xiao originally did not want to use the Bronze Divine Sword, but wielding such a weapon in front of so many people, he was really afraid of revealing it. However, if he could not achieve a quick victory, once he and Xie Jun ended up in a stalemate and he commanded 15,000 warriors to launch a major attack on Nanmu City, the situation would become uncontrollable.

He weighed all his Soul Skills; whether it was Black Hole Swallowing or Sweeping Void, none assured him of defeating Xie Jun in one strike, except for the Bronze Divine Sword. Therefore, he risked using the Bronze Divine Sword to kill in one strike.

What he did not expect was that, from a distance, Gu Bo was watching him and had already sensed some clues.

Yang Xiao coldly glanced at Xie Jun’s subordinates nearby and said:

”Your boss Xie Jun has been killed by me. Does anyone want to avenge him? Anyone who wants revenge can come up and challenge me now.”

The whole place was silent. Who in the right mind would seek death? Besides, Xie Jun always adopted a heavy-handed military policy, monopolizing most of the evolution resources for personal use, even Zhou Hua was quite dissatisfied internally, but no one dared to confront him when Xie Jun was still around.

Yang Xiao continued:

”I also know, Xie Jun plundered the evolution resources of the four cities fiercely, Xie Jun could break through to Advanced Enhanced Gene within less than a year, all by squeezing everyone’s hard work.

Do you know that in Nanmu City and Shanyun City under my rule, only 30% of the genetic fragments obtained from personal kills need to be handed over, the remaining 70% can be kept for personal use, and additionally, the handed-over evolution resources are concentrated to help some outstanding individuals to upgrade their evolution levels.”

Upon hearing this, Xie Jun’s subordinates were inwardly shaken. Comparing both sides, Yang Xiao’s governance policies were evidently much more generous.

Yang Xiao further said:

”With the death of Xie Jun, does anyone among you have the ability to take on the responsibility of governing the four cities?”

The crowd whispered quietly, the boss died, everyone wanted to be the boss, but indeed, no one had the capabilities of Xie Jun, even Zhou Hua was only at Primary Level in Enhanced Gene.

”Do you know that the entire Xuanming Country is currently in a power struggle? To not mention distant cases, the ruler of Qingyun City defeated the ruler of Zongli City and continued north to defeat the ruler of Tianyue City. Now, he rules the entire Eastern Province and next, he plans to attack our Kongming, with Yingzhou, Yang City bearing the brunt. Do you have the capability to resist the ruler of Qingyun City?”

Upon hearing this, people like Zhou Hua felt fearful inside. This wasn’t the first time they heard such news, as long as Xie Jun was there, everyone naturally didn’t need to worry, always having the boss in front. Now that Xie Jun is dead, who will block the attack?

It’s the end times, is it so easy to be the boss? Being the boss often means risking one’s life to shield everyone!

”I give you two options, first, you go back, and you fight for the position of the boss yourselves, I will not interfere.”

Zhou Hua and others were stunned, if they went back now, wouldn’t everyone fight to the death?

Even if a few individuals at Primary Level of Enhanced Gene were somewhat tempted, the vast majority of ordinary people were not moved. Recently, everyone had been squeezed harshly by Xie Jun, now with Xie Jun dead, everyone is plunged into chaos, ultimately it was still everyone who would suffer.

Someone shouted:

”Yang Xiao, what is the second option?”

Yang Xiao smiled:

”The second option, I become your boss, taking over the four cities, implementing the same policies as in Nanmu City and Shanyun City now, everyone stops the struggle, recuperates and recuperates, given that you have been squeezed too harshly recently, within a year, you only need to hand over 20% of the gold fragments obtained from hunting Mutated Creatures, the rest 80% is yours to keep.”
