Chapter 138: Commanded from a Thousand Miles, Leave Upon Resolution
Chapter 138: Commanded from a Thousand Miles, Leave Upon Resolution
The deep winter had passed, and early spring had arrived.
Spring rain gently persisted without end.
The world was still accompanied by harsh cold.
The accumulation of rainwater extracted the warmth between heaven and earth, bringing an icy chill accompanied by the spring breeze sweeping across the land, seemingly more bone-chilling than the thick snow of deep winter.
Li Che, wearing a Horse Face mask, had his Qi and blood utterly subdued to silence, completely noiseless, his eyes deeply somber, rapidly flitting across the Mansion City streets.
His speed was extremely fast, each tap of his toes similar to a dragonfly skimming water, causing the puddles to ripple outward, smoothly launching forward, covering meters in an instant.
He was running towards a direction away from the Qin Mansion.
The "Namo Immortal Craftsman Bodhi Barrett" was created by Li Che based on the concept of a sniper rifle from his previous life, roughly similar in concept, perhaps different in craftsmanship, but with Li Che's level 3 Dao Fruit [Divine Craft] and the analytical power of the Thousand Analyzing Hands, he synchronized the production based on the power effect.
The final showcased killing power should be quite similar.
Namo Immortal Artisan Gatling is about covering with firepower, a thousand turns per second.The latter, on the other hand, focuses on penetrative and explosive characteristics for killing.
It could achieve long-distance sniping, and the range… much higher than the Immortal Artisan Gatling modified from the Wood Raven.
Or to say, the two are not of the same conceptual machinery.
Merged with the black attire and spring water, Li Che in the Horse Face became exceedingly calm, as if everything in the world was captured and listened to between his inhalations and exhalations.
Everyone's character actually has many facets, usually showing the normal temperament, or the front-facing character to others.
But many times, the character displayed alone and unseen is entirely different.
Li Che felt he was just so.
With the Cute Bull Mask on, turning into the Bull Demon, he would become impulsive, unrestrained, and fearless.
During killings, he would mostly use his martial cultivation, his body swelling, tendons snapping, mainly pushing forward with brute force.
But with the Horse Face on, Li Che would become very calm, disliking head-on confrontations, preferring long-range killings instead.
Archery, sniping and the like… suited him well.
Hundred Miles Soul Lock, Thousand Miles Command!
This is the Horse Face.
But in the end, both the Ox Demon and Horse Face are Li Che…
Within his chest, the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit continuously trembled, the Heaven and Earth chessboard expanded its network, endlessly spreading.
Gradually covering half of the Golden Light Prefecture City.
Golden Light Prefecture City was too large, much larger compared to Fei Lei City, Immortal Work Barrett's range was very long, coupled with the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit's Heaven and Earth chessboard targeting, basically eliminating the need for a scope. ?
Therefore, Li Che could achieve long-distance strikes.
Just one shot, whether successful or not, Li Che would end today's assassination.
The threat brought by Qin Yuqing was too great; if left unattended, allowing the enemy to erode and draw closer bit by bit, slowly affecting his family, this was not what Li Che wished for.
He specifically chose today because he had an arrangement with Shangguan Qinghong to attend the evaluation for the Guest Elder at Qintian Observatory today.

Which could create an alibi for his assassination.
It is always necessary to be cautious.
Being prudent is also a beautiful trait.
Tap—
With a step, Li Che's elongated figure suddenly came to a stop, no longer advancing; the surrounding spring rain swayed, the spring breeze biting.
Icy raindrops pattered dully on his hat.
The eyes beneath the Horse Face mask, however, burst forth with brilliant light.
Glancing around, at this moment, he was located somewhere in the Outer City of Golden Light Prefecture City, approximately tens of miles from the Qin Mansion.
"This is about right."
Having chosen a position, Li Che's gaze sharp as lightning suddenly lifted, beneath the Horse Face, angles of his jaw dripping with water splashes.
Heaven and Earth chessboard, the net opens!
Spreading, spreading...
Soon, it had covered the Qin Mansion within his own perception.
There was a Divine Minister expert in the Qin Mansion; Li Che did not dare to underestimate, the chessboard network of the Heaven and Earth chessboard continued to expand, quickly infiltrating the Qin Mansion, the perspective within the Qin Mansion then surged into Li Che's eyes.
Because he had locked onto Qin Yuqing's aura, thus the moment the chessboard covered the Qin Mansion, Qin Yuqing's aura appeared on the chessboard, bursting with intense dark Qi.
That was the intense killing intent directed at him!
Li Che's eyebrows beneath the mask slightly raised.
"What a venomous woman, to harbor such intense intent to kill me..."
Li Che admitted to himself that this venomous woman most likely had no evidence that he had killed her son Cao Qingyuan.
On the surface, Li Che was a Woodcarving Master who came from Fei Lei City, gentle and amiable, getting along well with others, but this venomous woman, without any evidence, still harbored such intense intent to kill an honest person.
Most likely because he came from Fei Lei City.
Just for that reason, she wanted to kill him...
If that isn't a venomous woman, what is?
Li Che's heart sank, and his killing intent also spilled forth, no longer hesitating.
Lifting the Immortal Work Barrett in his hands, its engraved interwoven lines capable of harboring divinity and Qi, was a feature of the Dragon Tooth Boxwood, a seventh-grade spiritual wood, surely extraordinary.
All around was eerily quiet, Li Che stood on the black tiled rooftop, spreading his stance wide, then lifting the mechanism.
Slightly raising the arc, under the targeting of the Heaven and Earth chessboard, slowly aiming.
Looking at the dense dark Qi from Qin Yuqing's aura within the Heaven and Earth chessboard.
Beneath the Horse Face mask, Li Che remained expressionless.
Horse Face, Hundred Miles Soul Lock!
Thousand Miles Command!
Boom—!
Li Che's body suddenly swelled up, though not fully initiating the Vajra Dragon Elephant, only swelling his body slightly, his robust Qi was all injected into the Immortal Work Barrett.
