Chapter 142 - 141: Capture
’He’s fine? How is that possible? How could anyone withstand my Seven Flowers Poison Needle!’
A storm raged in Shari’s heart as alarm bells screamed in her mind. She frantically channeled her Spiritual Power, and with a wave of her fair hand, three more Seven Flowers Poison Needles, as fine as ox hair, shot toward Shu Feng.
TING! TING! TING!
The three Seven Flowers Poison Needles struck Shu Feng’s Membrane of Spiritual Power, pierced through it, and jabbed into his body before being flung away one by one.
"Kneel!!"
A vicious glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes as he instantly shot up from his seat like a terrifying beast. He thrust out a palm, which blazed like a Great Sun as it slammed toward Shari.
The color drained from Shari’s face. She quickly channeled her Spiritual Power, forming a Membrane of Spiritual Power around herself, but was immediately struck by Shu Feng’s palm.
The Membrane of Spiritual Power around Shari shattered instantly. She was sent flying like a broken doll, slamming hard against the cabin wall. She coughed up a mouthful of blood, her insides feeling as if they would rupture, and lost all ability to fight.
Cao Zhen, who had been sitting in his seat, snapped his eyes open. Like a terrifying, enraged lion, a terrifying Spiritual Pressure of the Spirit Sect Level emanated from his body.
"What happened?"
Cao Zhen asked in a deep voice, his figure blurring as he appeared beside Shu Feng.
Shu Feng pointed at Shari and said, "This female Assassin came to kill me. I took her down."
’An Assassin? I didn’t even notice. This Assassin must be among the best of the best. And he actually survived... As expected of this year’s top student of the Celestial Pride Class!’
Spirit Sect Realm experts were terrifying, inhuman existences, and their Spiritual Sense was far superior to that of Great Spirit Master Level experts. If Shari had tried to assassinate Cao Zhen, he would have definitely discovered her the moment she made her move.
Shu Feng’s Spiritual Sense wasn’t as sharp as Cao Zhen’s, which was why Shari’s assassination attempt succeeded. However, the Sun and Moon Scripture, truly one of the most powerful scriptures in the Black Tortoise Realm, had neutralized her poison. Otherwise, another one of the Synthetic Beasts bound to Shu Feng by a Blood Contract would have met a grim end.
Shu Feng asked, "Teacher, what about those ordinary people?"
At that moment, in the first-class cabin, over twenty ordinary people, all of whom were either rich or influential, were looking their way.
"Go to sleep! And forget everything you’ve seen."
Cao Zhen took out a pocket watch. His Spiritual Power surged, and he flicked his finger.
The pocket watch shone with Spiritual Light, and illusory clock hands appeared above the heads of the ordinary people.
The eyelids of the ordinary people fluttered heavily, and one by one, they fell into a deep sleep.
’That’s the Secret Treasure, the Sleeping Pocket Watch! They sell it in the Extraordinary Mall for about 100 million! It’s embedded with two abilities, Sleep and Forgetfulness, and it’s effective on ordinary people.’
"All Sleeping Pocket Watches are subsidiaries of the Sacred Artifact, the Sleeping Bell. Once a Sleeping Pocket Watch is used, the Sleeping Bell will register it. That’s why you have to file a report every single time you use one, which is a real pain! But when you’re traveling, you have to carry a Secret Treasure like this," Cao Zhen said meaningfully.
If there were no restrictions, people could use the Sleeping Pocket Watch on ordinary people without any scruples. Even if a Sleeping Pocket Watch cost 100 million, countless people would still scramble to buy one.
However, the requirement to file a report after each use prevented some Spiritualists from using the Sleeping Pocket Watch for evil.
Shu Feng said, "This Assassin was sent to kill me, so she’s my spoil of war. I’m taking her with me."
Shari’s Seven Flowers Poison Needle could help refine the Spiritual Power cultivated by Shu Feng’s Sun and Moon Scripture, while also increasing his Poison Resistance. Naturally, he wasn’t about to let her go.
The stronger Shu Feng’s Poison Resistance, the greater his advantage would be when facing enemies who wielded deadly poisons in the future. It would also significantly increase his chances of survival.
Cao Zhen said, "Alright!"
Shu Feng was the top new student at Shuijing High School, a prodigy among prodigies. As long as it wasn’t a matter of principle, Cao Zhen wouldn’t object to his requests.
Shu Feng reached out and, with a touch, sent Shari directly into his Base Space, where she fell into the Warrior Synthesis Nest.
The moment Shari fell into the Warrior Synthesis Nest, countless tentacles extended from it, pierced into her body, and began injecting her with various tissue fluids, modifying her body and soul at the genetic level.
A mystical Curse Seal appeared on the Central Control Tower. Endless, eerie waves of control immediately flowed into Shari, implanting a Control Seal within her body.
Seeing Shari disappear, a flash of envy crossed Liu Yang’s eyes. "Shu Feng sure is lucky with the ladies."
Although Shari’s looks and disposition were far inferior to Zhao Zixing’s, she was still a great beauty with a fiery figure and gorgeous features. For such a beautiful woman to be captured alive by Shu Feng naturally sent people’s imaginations running wild.
Qi Ning shot Shu Feng a harsh glare and muttered, "Such a pervert!"
Zhao Zixing gave Shu Feng a deep look, then closed her eyes, her expression unreadable.
Half an hour later, with a wave of Shu Feng’s hand, Shari—now dressed in a flight attendant’s uniform—appeared in the first-class cabin and began leading him toward the crew’s rest area.
A flight attendant stopped Shu Feng and said, "Hello, sir. This is the crew’s rest area. Passengers are not allowed to enter."
"Move."
Shu Feng glanced at the flight attendant and activated his Badge Power. Wisps of illusory ripples coiled toward her.
"Yes, sir!"
The flight attendant’s eyes glazed over as she stepped aside, speaking with utmost respect.
’Illusion Techniques are really useful. I made the right choice. With this ability alone, I could make a fortune off of ordinary people.’
With that thought, Shu Feng strode into the crew’s rest area.
Along the way, any crew member who met Shu Feng’s gaze had their mind entranced and would obediently step aside.
Shu Feng glanced at Shari and said indifferently, "Speak. What’s your background, and why did you try to assassinate me?"
"Why should I tell you?"
Shari gave a cold smile and was about to use her seductive wiles to bewitch Shu Feng, but her body moved against her will, and she began to speak obediently, "My name is Shari, a member of the assassin organization Black Cheetah. There are four of us in Black Cheetah: the leader, Demon Leopard, then me, Janis, and Robin."
"Demon Leopard is elusive. He’s a very strong Spiritual Spear Master, but his Spiritual Ability and cultivation level are unknown. Janis is a sniper with a Spirit Master Level cultivation. Robin is a Mage who is proficient in various types of Black Magic, and he’s especially skilled in Curse Magic."
"We accepted the mission to assassinate you from the Slaughter Angel Net. Someone has put a bounty of 1 billion on your head."
A cold glint flickered in Shu Feng’s eyes. ’So that’s how it is. First, they lure me away from Shuijing High School, then they hire people to assassinate me. The allure of wealth is a powerful thing! The profits from a Little World are just too enormous. They couldn’t hold back any longer.’
