Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 163: Murder on a Rainy Night – Slaying by One’s Own Hand (Part 4)


Frost Wolf suffered numerous setbacks while fighting the Harley Clan, even faced life-threatening dangers, leaving him somewhat exhausted.

He didn't want such a relationship with the Shire Clan, so he secretly established a rapport with them.

On the surface, he remained a hitman for the Andre Clan, but he promised not to attack the Shire Clan.

Meanwhile, the Harley Clan, once one of the giants in the casino world, was withdrawing from the field.

Others saw Frost Wolf as powerful, but he knew he'd been through a lot of crises, with too many wanting him dead.

However, those who wanted him dead were mainly stakeholders; ordinary gamblers simply didn't have the capability.

Having negotiated with the Shire Clan, he thought he could relax, and there weren't even any Modified Warriors guarding him.

When he suddenly saw someone appear in the air, he knew trouble was coming, but it was too late to sober up.

He opened his mouth, about to shout something, but then his body went rigid again.

Then the figure lunged forward, a blade flash, and he completely lost consciousness.

His final thought before dying was: What a fast blade!

Qu Jianlei decapitated him with a single strike, sheathed his Long Blade, then grabbed his head and body, "Let's move!"

This had all been pre-planned; if everything went smoothly, Xiao Moshan would send him to the rooftop with a gust of wind.

Then Bentley would paralyze him with an electric shock, and Qu Jianlei would strike and behead him.

The reason Qu Jianlei did the killing was not that he was the strongest; they were all Ultimate Warriors, who was weaker?

The truth is, he didn't have any specialties, but those two had... quite notable ones.

So they just provided support, letting him go up to behead the target, not out of self-doubt, but to prepare for the second half.

The fight went surprisingly smoothly; given the element of surprise, three Ultimate Warriors against one, a quick kill was expected.

Not to mention electromagnetic attacks, a true bane for Water Attribute Warriors.

Especially in such weather, Ice Attribute Warriors felt invincible, but... that didn't include special circumstances!

Because electromagnetic attacks leave traces, Qu Jianlei took Frost Wolf's body with him.

Xiao Moshan controlled a whirlwind to send the three of them to an off-road vehicle by the roadside, and they quickly fled.

With the rain still falling and not much surveillance, escaping wasn't a problem.

Once outside the city, the three got out of the random car Qu Jianlei had grabbed.

Frost Wolf's body was left in the car, cut into pieces to disguise that fatal slash.

Regrettably, he had no valuables on him; his pockets were cleaner than his face.

But for someone like him, carrying no money was perfectly normal.

Soon after, the three poured fuel and set the car ablaze, making a quick getaway.

Amidst the fine drizzle, the fierce flames were extremely conspicuous.

Early the next morning, word spread that Frost Wolf had disappeared from his own casino.

At first, people speculated whether he left temporarily for something, but no one could reach him.

Then news from his female assistant came—his sun umbrella was slashed, clearly something had happened.

Later, the Security Team intervened, extracting some bloodstains that hadn't washed away with the rain.

Frost Wolf's detailed information was on record with the Ultimate Warriors Management Department; blood identification confirmed something had happened to him.

By evening, it was confirmed that the charred corpse in the car outside the city was Frost Wolf.

The nature of this incident was quite serious; an Ultimate Warrior in Central City disappeared without a trace.

But Frost Wolf didn't have a good reputation among the populace, with many gloating over his demise.

The Andre Clan was outraged, vowing to find the killer, but Frost Wolf had too many potential enemies.

Among them, Jian Lei was also a suspect, but his suspicion wasn't significant.

Firstly, he hadn't certified as an Ultimate Warrior, and his combat power was questionable, while Frost Wolf was extremely powerful.

To say Jian Lei sought help seemed unlikely; he rarely left his home and had few friends in Central City.

He knew a few Ultimate Warriors in the Inspection Bureau, but would they possibly break the law?

In retrospect, if the Inspection Bureau really helped, this matter couldn't be investigated further, or it would escalate.

However, the most crucial point was: the casino informants were confident in their professionalism.

They didn't believe that Jian Lei, who barely left his home, could uncover their surveillance.

If no surveillance was detected, Jian Lei had no reason to go after Frost Wolf; past grievances had long been resolved.

In reality, the Andre Clan's suspicions mainly focused on factions with conflicting interests.

How they would investigate next was left unmentioned.

Yet some were highly suspicious of Qu Jianlei; none other than the Inspector of the Earth Room.

After Jamaari learned of Frost Wolf's death, he sent Xiao Qin to visit Qu Jianlei's small courtyard.

Then Xiao Qin returned to report, "That Terry... really came to Central City."

"It was indeed possible for him to come in," Jamaari subconsciously asked, "Did you check his credentials?"

Xiao Qin gave a wry smile, "Do I dare?"

Only then did Jamaari realize that individual was the only warrior who mastered the Electromagnetic Attribute Cultivation Method.

"Being flushed with work... didn't that woman come?"

"She didn't," Xiao Qin shook his head and then left.
