Ji Chengtian had been in a foul mood recently, and seeing these people disregarding him one by one, the string of reason in his mind completely snapped, and even his face contorted in anger.
"Do you really think I’m useless, that you can ignore me like this?" he said dangerously, as his fists slammed onto the conference table! It was a solid wooden table, quite large. Although Ji Chengtian wasn’t a Power System superpower user, as superpower users advance in level, their bodies also become strengthened. So, when he smashed the table, a spider web of cracks appeared instantaneously on the smooth surface, extending outwards, the lines growing deeper and deeper.
Originally, everyone had assumed that Ji Chengtian was finished this time and planned to use that mysterious Spiritual Power expert from Peace Base to have him killed, so they could take over control of Chengtian Base. They’d harbored resentment towards Ji Chengtian a while ago, and couldn’t help but feel a little smug, inadvertently treating him with less respect.
Seeing Ji Chengtian’s face turn dark with anger, they were quite pleased with themselves, thinking, "Ji Chengtian has finally met his downfall today." They hadn’t expected Ji Chengtian to actually become so enraged that he would take physical action!
As everyone saw his glowering face, with such an ominous look in his eyes, they hurriedly apologized, fearing that Ji Chengtian would lose his reason and go berserk. If that were indeed to happen, it would be dangerous for all of them!
Ji Chengtian watched them coldly, not believing a single word they said! He had realized that everyone was just waiting for him to die so they could snatch his position. Such wishful thinking!
Thinking this, his gaze toward these people turned even colder. Then, suddenly, he spoke, "Don’t think for a second that I don’t know what’s on your minds! A mysterious spiritual superpower expert has appeared at Peace Base. Tomorrow, you’d better come with me to eliminate this person. No tricks, otherwise, this table will be your fate!" As his words fell, a massive Wind Blade appeared instantly, shredding the entire conference table into pieces!
As the Wind Blade passed by them, they all felt a sharp, knife-like murderous intent, and became instantly apprehensive, not daring to meet Ji Chengtian’s eyes. Satisfied with the terrified expressions on their faces, Ji Chengtian’s mood improved slightly. Then losing interest in wasting words with these people, he said directly, "Each of you bring a thousand men, gather at the East Gate of the Base at seven o’clock tomorrow morning. Remember, don’t be late!"
Ji Chengtian smiled contentedly, then his gaze swept profoundly over each of the seven leaders’ faces, deliberately saying, "It seems you finally didn’t arrive late today, it looks like yesterday was really an accident."
The seven’s faces shifted, their lips twitched, but none of them said a word. Ji Chengtian was clearly not in his normal state of mind, and they didn’t want to provoke him any further, fearing that if Ji Chengtian were to fly into a rage, it would spell disaster for them all.
Ji Chengtian himself had brought two thousand men, the very ones from yesterday, and then, the convoy set off. Ji Chengtian directly ordered the seven leaders to lead the way with their men in front, while he followed with his own forces behind. This request instantly changed the seven men’s expressions, unable to hide their emotions!
Ji Chengtian’s intention was to make them fight against Peace Base, in what is essentially a "war of attrition." By doing this, he not only aimed to weaken Peace Base’s strength but also to wear down these leaders’ forces! He had noticed the treacherousness in these people and was naturally very wary, and he didn’t trust them at all. Only by depleting their strength could he not worry about them joining forces to attack him!
