Chapter 1409 - Do You like Surprises?

As the explosions of the two arsenals hit Si Kongchen into a fury, Lin Qiao sneaked into the third arsenal. She was able to sense his location while he couldn’t detect her presence. Therefore, when Si Kongchen headed to the east, she moved to the west, and when he turned left, she headed right.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Waves of thunderous explosions could be heard from every corner of Huaxia Base.

“What’s happening?”

“Is our base under attack?”

The residents in the base looked around with surprise, making guesses about what was happening. Judging by the earth-shaking explosion sounds, something serious must be happening.

As three arsenals were blown up one after another, Si Kongchen almost exploded with anger as well. He wasn’t able to catch Lin Qiao while she was showing no sign of stopping.

She was a level-eight being who had invisibility; not even an army could stop her. Even Si Kongchen himself had no way to locate her, let alone those lower-leveled ones.

“Is she going to blow up all our military areas?” Wei Haichao asked Si Kongchen with a deep frown.

“This is ridiculous! Why is she doing this? Is she trying to stop me from attacking Sea City Base?” Seventy percent of the ammunition kept in the three arsenals had been detonated, and that was a heavy loss. Si Kongchen even had veins standing up under the skin near his temples. He clenched his teeth as he ragingly stared at the thick, dark smoke rising in the surroundings.

“That’s possible,” said Wei Haichao.

Si Kongchen’s face twisted in a vicious look. That look and the veins near his temples made him look ferocious. “She thinks this can stop me? That’s not gonna happen!”

“What do you want to do?” Wei Haichao looked at him with confusion.

Si Kongchen opened his mouth. However, before he could say a word, Han Xiao showed up by his side with a sullen face, saying, “The plantation base is destroyed too.”

Si Kongchen still stayed silent, so Han Xiao continued, “And, our weapons for underground creatures which were kept secretly have all been stolen.”

Si Kongchen still stayed silent. Wei Haichao didn’t know what to say either. They couldn’t describe the feelings that they were having at the moment.

Boom!

“Damn! That b*tch!” After spending quite a while in silence, Si Kongchen suddenly turned and kicked a wall.

At that moment, Lin Qiao and Yun Meng were standing about two-hundred meters away behind Si Kongchen, smilingly watching his reaction.

“He is infuriated. You blew up his arsenals and destroyed his plantation base, and then you stole his weapons. Meanwhile, he can’t do a thing to you. He can’t even find you.” Yun Meng said to Lin Qiao with gloat.

“He messed with me first,” Lin Qiao clicked her tongue and said, “I wouldn’t have done all this if he hadn’t provoked me. He cast his greedy eyes on us, so he should have been prepared for the consequences. This isn’t the best part of the show yet. I’ll soon erase him from the world.”

It was about time!

“Go and wait outside,” Lin Qiao turned and said to Yun Meng, “Your job is done. I’ll handle the rest.”

“Okay,” Yun Meng glanced at her before flashing across the air and disappearing.

After kicking the wall collapse, Si Kongchen said through gritted teeth, “I’ll find her!”

“Hey, are you looking for me?” A woman’s voice was suddenly heard from behind him.

Si Kongchen and the others immediately twirled back and saw a woman in a black military suit floating in the air. Her long hair were fluttering in the air, and her hands rested on her waist. Looking down at Si Kongchen and his men, the pretty woman wore a scornful smile.

Lin Qiao waved an arm and generated a black fire under her feet. In the meanwhile, she looked at Si Kongchen and his men and said, “How do you feel? Do you like the surprises that I presented to you?”

Blowing up the underground research base was the first surprise, finding out about his entire plan and ruining it was the second, and blowing up the arsenals was the third. She had indeed presented him with three surprises.

“I-love-them!” Si Kongchen glared at her fiercely, clenching both fists. The icy-cold intention of killing burst from his eyes.

“You’re welcome!” Lin Qiao responded to him with a faint smile.

The two of them were already archenemies. Si Kongchen surely wouldn’t waste time asking Lin Qiao why she did all that. He was, in fact, surprised to see her show her face.

“Great! Since you’ve brought yourself to me, I think I should thank you sincerely for what you’ve done.” He fixed his eyes on Lin Qiao and said. Once his voice faded, he raised an arm and threw a scorching fireball out.

Lin Qiao swiftly moved to the side to dodge the fireball and then smiled at him, “Oh, you really don’t need to thank me. Be patient. I have more surprises for you!”

While speaking, she wielded an arm and released a massive stream of black fire. The fire covered the sky and darkened the whole area. As the black fire expanded in the sky, people started running in a panic. They were worried that Lin Qiao might swing her arm and bring the fire straight to them.

They clearly remembered what that Chief lady could do!

As Lin Qiao had released such a vast spread of black fire, Si Kongchen quickly let out a raging fire as well. Lin Qiao’s fire was cold, and his was scorching hot. Lin Qiao’s fire had no temperature while Si Kongchen’s fire had an extremely high temperature. The two different types of fire mixed together in the sky, looking fabulous. It was terribly dangerous though; anyone who got too close might die.

Si Kongchen’s fire suppressed Lin Qiao’s fire temporarily. In the meanwhile, Si Kongchen leaped high into the sky, releasing his power through both hands and trying to press her fire down.

However, he soon started finding it difficult, as his power failed to conquer Lin Qiao’s fire. His fire couldn’t overcome Lin Qiao’s black fire. On the contrary, the black fire was devouring his energy.

He immediately realized that Lin Qiao wasn’t easy to deal with, and her power seemed to be suppressing his. They both had fire power, but her fire was able to absorb energy from his fire.

Wasn’t the woman new to level-eight? Si Kongchen wondered how she was able to suppress his power. He had entered level-eight before she did, so he was supposed to be stronger than her. However, no matter how much stronger he was than her, he could not resist her devouring power.

He might have stronger energy than her, but she was able to absorb his energy!
