The Bureau Chief was rendered speechless by Tang Zheng's words. He glared at Tang Zheng in shame, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Ji Wuxiang laughed and clapped. "Brilliant, your words are powerful and resonant. Who knows how many people are thinking about it."
"You colluded with each other and colluded with each other. One day, I will make you pay a painful price." The Bureau Chief's face was red as he threatened fiercely.
There was no possibility of reconciliation between the two sides, so the Bureau Chief naturally wouldn't be nice to him. He looked at Tang Zheng as if he wanted to skin him alive.
"You will have to wait until that day comes." Ji Wuxiang shrugged nonchalantly, pointed at Tang Zheng, and said, "Do you think he will let you off this time?"
The Bureau Chief's pupils shrank, and there was some fear in his heart. Especially when he recalled the scene of the Asura splitting the mountain. It was so majestic and terrifying.
Tang Zheng didn't answer and just looked at the Bureau Chief coldly.
The Bureau Chief's heart sank as he realized the answer. He shouted, "Stop them!"
With that order, the sound of something breaking through the air rang out. The mechanical warriors split into two, one attacking Tang Zheng, and the other attacking Ji Wuxiang.
Ji Wuxiang signaled Granny Li with his eyes and retreated. Granny Li took the hint and quietly retreated.
Ji Wuxiang's motive was very obvious. He purposely used Celestial Chess to lure Tang Zheng over, and then let Tang Zheng and the Bureau Chief fight while he reaped the benefits. This idea was very vicious and cunning.
This plan succeeded!
Of course, he wouldn't stay to see the result. He didn't want to be entangled. Then, all his efforts would be wasted.
Ji Wuxiang glanced in Tang Zheng's direction from the corner of his eyes and realized that the mechanical warriors had already started fighting with him. Both sides were fighting back and forth without stopping.
Seeing how Tang Zheng dealt with it so easily, Ji Wuxiang's eyelids kept twitching.
There was no doubt that Tang Zheng's strength had improved again. A scholar who has been away for three days must be looked at with new eyes. This sentence was very suitable for Tang Zheng.
A bright light flashed through Ji Wuxiang's eyes. No matter who won or lost, he would be the biggest winner.
"Let's go!" He said in a low voice. With a light tap of his toes, he leaped out of the underground fortress.
Granny Li followed closely behind, leaving behind an afterimage. She was one step slower than Ji Wuxiang.
Seeing this, the mechanical warrior did not say anything and chased after him.
Their jumping ability was not as good as Ji Wuxiang's and Granny Li's, but flames spurted out from their feet, and they soared into the sky like rockets.
This scene made one involuntarily think of the Vajra mecha flying in the sky. Therefore, it was not surprising that this batch of mechanical warriors had the ability to fly.
After all, the mechanical warriors were a product that combined the advantages of super soldiers and Vajra mecha.
Ji Wuxiang and Granny Li both noticed the pursuers behind them, but the two did not panic. Instead, they dove into the large army like fish in water, causing waves of exclamations.
They were immediately submerged in the large army. There were thousands of soldiers chasing after Tang Zheng. When the two of them dove into the army, it was like a drop of water entering the sea. No one could find them anymore.
The mechanical warriors stood in the air. Their eyes swept through the crowd like a scanner, but they did not find any trace of their target.
The soldiers on the ground raised their heads to look at the mechanical warriors in the sky, and their gazes underwent a complete change. They had been stationed here day and night to train, day and night without stopping. However, they had not realized that this seemingly ordinary mountain peak actually had a completely different world, and that there were so many powerful fellows hidden here.
Although they did not have as much information as Tang Zheng and the others, they could guess that the people flying above them were not ordinary people. Although both sides were dressed similarly, with uniform military uniforms.
"Come back and annihilate them." The Bureau Chief saw the scene outside the underground fortress from the big screen and secretly scolded Ji Wuxiang for being cunning. He actually let him slip away.
There were priorities. Ji Wuxiang had left and did not pose a threat for the time being. Therefore, they had to use all means to deal with Tang Zheng and the Empyrean Fairy.
Tang Zheng had already exchanged more than ten moves with the mechanical warriors and gradually understood their strength and routines. The standard of these mechanical warriors was really extraordinary. Ordinary people were not their match at all. Even many martial artists and practitioners might not be able to defeat them.
From this point, it was enough to show the strength of the mechanical warriors and the Bureau Chief was not simple. He actually picked up the experience and information left behind by the Dragon Team and quietly made such achievements. Back then, Xing Feng could not catch up with this progress.
Because they knew this, Tang Zheng and Ji Wuxiang both realized that they had underestimated the Bureau Chief in the past and had to re-evaluate him.
More than a hundred mechanical warriors rushed toward Tang Zheng and the Empyrean Fairy, blocking their vision.
The two of them remained calm and dealt with the situation with ease. A series of muffled sounds rang out. Every time a mechanical warrior took an attack from them, they would fall to the ground and turn into scrap metal. They either drooped their heads or lay on the ground, emitting sparks and smoke.
The soldiers in the distance stretched their necks and could only roughly see the scene in the underground fortress. Their faces turned even paler, and many of them retreated, wishing that they could increase the distance between them and the two of them.
"Use your killing moves and get rid of these guys quickly. Anyway, they are not humans." Tang Zheng finally lost his patience. These guys were really not afraid of death. They knew that there were tigers in the mountains, but they still insisted on going there. How annoying.
Bang bang bang!
With a series of muffled sounds, the mechanical warriors fell to the ground one after another. There were many large holes on their bodies, and this scene made everyone feel respect and fear.
"Hiss —"
When the soldiers saw this scene, all of them gasped. Just now, they wanted to stop the two of them and even chased after them. It turned out that the two of them were not afraid of them, but just did not want to fight with them.
Everyone broke out in cold sweat, and a chill rose from the bottom of their hearts. They felt a lingering fear.
At a glance, other than Tang Zheng and the Empyrean Fairy, there was no third person standing in the underground fortress. The ground was littered with broken mechanical warriors.
"Eh, where is the Bureau Chief?"
Tang Zheng was shocked and looked around, but he didn't even see the Leader's figure.
"What happened?"
The two of them looked at each other. They did not expect the Bureau Chief to sneak away from under their noses.
"The Bureau Chief is just an ordinary person. He is not a cultivator, nor a martial artist. This fortress is so high up. Is there a third way to go?" Tang Zheng was confused and started to mutter.
The Asura's slash not only split the mountain peak, but also destroyed many of the facilities in the underground fortress. The elevator could not be used at all, so it was impossible for the Bureau Chief to escape from the elevator.
This underground fortress was so high from the ground. How did he manage to climb up so stealthily?
Just now, the two of them were surrounded by mechanical warriors and did not have the energy to pay attention to the Bureau Chief's movements. Although they saw Ji Wuxiang and Granny Li retreating, they could not do anything. They did not have the time to look around, let alone chase after them.
Tang Zheng angrily stomped his foot and said: "What bad luck, I let them escape again. These two guys are too cunning, hiding here and there. I finally found them with great difficulty, but I let them escape again."
The Empyrean Fairy did not say a word. She was deep in thought, and her eyes kept changing.
Tang Zheng noticed her strange behavior and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you think the Bureau Chief is different from before?" The Empyrean Fairy asked curiously.
"Different?" Tang Zheng's head moved as he recalled the scene just now. Like a movie, he replayed it frame by frame. Sure enough, he found a slight difference.
If it was not for the Empyrean Fairy's reminder, he would definitely have overlooked this difference.
He was more confident, and this confidence came from his body.
Tang Zheng was very familiar with this.
This was because he was also in the same situation in the past. Ever since he became a cultivator, his strength increased day by day. That kind of confidence that came from his body became stronger and stronger.
"Could it be that he is also a cultivator?"
Tang Zheng was shocked and a strange thought came to his mind.
The Empyrean Fairy's eyes shone like bright stars. She did not deny this point and said thoughtfully, "We can't rule out this possibility."
"What, is there really such a possibility? How did he do it? He is so old. Moreover, how did he hide his cultivation level? If he can escape from our eyes, then how high is his cultivation level? "
A series of questions came one after another. It was easy to imagine the shock and confusion in Tang Zheng's mind.
The Empyrean Fairy was not surprised and said, "It is not impossible to forcefully raise a person's cultivation level. There are many secret techniques in the world that can do this. However, there is a huge side effect. This person's cultivation level will be fixed in the future and be limited to a fixed realm, unable to improve."
Tang Zheng suddenly understood and said, "Then this is the Bureau Chief's situation?"
"It is possible."
"Then who could do this?"
"Only he knows about this. Perhaps this is the source of his confidence. Together with these mechanical warriors, there's probably no one in the government who's stronger than him in today's world. It's no wonder he's so confident. "The Mysterious Maiden of the Nine Heavens sighed.
Tang Zheng's expression darkened. He knew what this meant.
As the Bureau Chief's strength increased, his ambition would also explode. It was no wonder he would have ideas about Tian Qi and Ji Wuxiang. However, this was no different from asking a tiger for its skin. In the end, he would be harmed instead.
"What do you plan to do next?" The Empyrean Fairy asked curiously.
Tang Zheng stared blankly at the messy underground fortress. His gaze swept past the mechanical warriors and his heart sank. The power of technology was undeniable and could not be underestimated.
The Bureau Chief had luckily escaped this time, so he would be more careful next time. It would be harder to find him than to reach the heavens.
The power of science and technology would be a great help to him, and it wouldn't be surprising if he invented some strange things in the future. However, when they met again in the future, his strength would be vastly different from what it was now, and he would be an even greater threat.
Tang Zheng sighed inwardly. Although he thought of this, there was nothing he could do.
"Tang Zheng, what are you looking at?"
