Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 1024
Chapter 1024 Twelve Winged Angels!
“Qin Fei, let’s go. We’ll take you to see Lord Tom!” Said Harry with a smile.
“Greetings, Lord Tom?” Qin Fei deliberately pretended to be a fool.
“Haha, don’t be nervous. Lord Tom is very easy to talk to and is very easy to deal with us subordinates! Joining Lord Tom’s subordinates will make you have endless cultivation resources in the future. I guarantee that you will be able to advance faster!” Alex said.
Qin Fei didn’t say much and nodded in agreement to see Tom. Yasley was now officially a member of Tom’s team. According to the rules, she was Qin Fei’s follower now.
The twelve-winged angels had a high status in the Holy City, second only to the twenty-four-winged angels. The twenty-four-winged angels entrusted the operation and management of the Holy City to the twelve-winged angels. Strictly speaking, the twelve-winged angels were the ones in power in the Holy City.
As a twelve-winged angel, Tom was in charge of the security of the ten streets in the east of the Holy City. He was a supreme god here and had the power to kill and live.
According to Harry and the others along the way, there were forty-eight twelve-winged angels in the Holy City. Each twelve-winged district governed the various parts of the Holy City. Lord Tom’s jurisdiction was just adjacent to Lord Gasol’s.
The forty-eight twelve-winged angels all wanted to expand their territories, so they often had conflicts. Occasionally, they would snatch their territories, but the twenty-four-winged angels did not stop them. Instead, they allowed them to do so.
According to Tom, fighting each other puts everyone in a state of tension and excitement, so as to prevent everyone from being distracted by the ease of life and the impetus to cultivate.
The conflict between Tom and Gasol came from the turf war. The situation now was that Tom had some advantage. He had occupied one of Gasol’s streets the previous month, so Gasol’s people were so hostile to the people of Tom’s faction.
Tom’s mansion was situated in the middle of the easternmost and busiest of the eight streets. It was a magnificent palace complex. The main building was made of crystal stones, and golden glazed tiles shone brightly.
Qin Fei and Jasmine followed Harry and the others into the mansion. They saw the angels with the lowest six wings and the most eight wings. When they saw Harry and the others, they all bowed respectfully.
They were all shocked to see Jasmine, a six-winged man, following Harry and the other ten-winged angels.
“Ashley, wait outside first. Qin Fei, come with us to see Lord Tom!” Said Harry, turning to Qin Fei and Yasley.
Twelve-winged angels were not something a tiny six-winged person could see, so Jasmine was not qualified to enter.
Qin Fei didn’t say much about it, and asked Yasley to wait outside. He followed Harry and the others into a glorious hall.
When they entered the hall, they saw dozens of eight-winged angels standing respectfully on both sides of the hall. They saw Harry and the others saluting together.
Qin Fei raised his eyes and looked at the head of the hall. He saw a burly middle-aged man sitting on a luxurious throne. He was looking coldly at the crowd. When the man’s gaze swept over him, his gaze suddenly turned cold and returned to normal.
“Lord Tom, this is Qin Fei. He just advanced to Ten Wings. He killed Pau Gasol’s right-hand man, Fayek!” Said Harry to the middle-aged man.
The man was Tom, a twelve-winged angel, the ruler of the Holy City.
Tom nodded indifferently and said, “Alright, if you want to join me, killing one Fayek alone won’t prove your ability! Now I’ll give you fifty eight-winged and a hundred six-winged men to snatch over Gasol’s Cold Moon Street within an hour, and you can officially join!”
Qin Fei was stunned. Damn, this Tom’s tone was very aggressive. He actually wanted him to show off at this time.
Harry and the others were also shocked. This was completely different from the previous situation. Lord Tom had accepted the Ten-Winged Angel in the past, but this time, Qin Fei had to fight Pau Gasol directly. This was completely unreasonable.
However, they did not dare to say anything else. Lord Tom’s words were imperial decree and could not be disobeyed.
“Let’s go down. From now on, the time is up. The manpower is ready!” Tom waved his hand impatiently, signaling Qin Fei to hurry up.
Qin Fei forcefully suppressed his impulse to charge forward and beat Tom up. He turned around and left the hall. Tom’s strength was only at the seventh level of the Divine Underworld. A single finger could pierce him to death. However, he resisted it. It was easy to kill Tom, but now was not the time. He still needed to rely on him to meet the Twenty-Four Winged Angel. So, he should listen to him for the time being.
‘”Sir, you only sent so many people. I’m afraid it will be very difficult for Qin Fei to take down Cold Moon Street! Although this street is not the most important place for Gasol, he has sent Hymin to guard it. Hymin has over a hundred eight-winged and nearly three hundred six-winged men under him. I’m afraid Qin Fei won’t be able to complete his mission here!” Harry said respectfully to Tom.
Tom said expressionlessly, “This is a test for him. I know very well what happened outside the temple. Don’t you think there’s nothing wrong with this kid growing up so quickly in the battle with Fayek?”
“Question? This lowly person is stupid. Please make it clear!” Harry and the others were shocked and did not understand Tom’s words.
“This is not ordinary! Although it was common to increase one’s strength in a battle, it was very unusual for someone like him to suddenly jump from six wings to ten wings, crossing two great steps! “I suspect he’s either really talented, or he deliberately hid his strength and showed it by fighting Fayek, so that I can take him seriously and achieve his ulterior motives,” Tom said coldly.
“What? He is such a person? But, my lord, we know Yasley’s background very well. She is a native of our Holy City, and she definitely will not be a rebel!” Said Harry in surprise.
‘”There’s no problem with that angel. I’m only guessing Qin Fei’s identity. It’s better to be careful. The eight Holy Cities are enemies. Countless spies have infiltrated the cities. We have to be careful. If he really is a spy and becomes my Tom’s subordinate, I’ll be the one to be blamed if the matter is exposed.” Said Tom.
“But, my lord, should we prove that he is not a spy?” Harry asked doubtfully.
“I can’t prove it! If he helps me expand my territory, he can keep it. If he fails, he can directly wipe it out. We don’t need to prove that he is a spy. We just need to use him to help us.” Tom sneered.
Harry and the others looked at each other in shock. If Qin Fei was really a spy as Tom had expected, not only did they not make any contribution this time, they did something bad instead. Fortunately, the lord did not pursue it and was prepared to use Qin Fei. This would relieve them of their responsibility.
Qin Fei brought a bunch of angels to Cold Moon Street. He didn’t know what Tom was thinking, but no matter what task the other party gave him, he didn’t care. In any case, he was just playing.
People came and went on Leng Yue Street. They saw a large group of people swarming over. Everyone seemed to know what would happen and retreated one after another. In the blink of an eye, there was no one on the street. It was as empty as a valley that had just been blown by a strong wind.
“Sir, this is Cold Moon Street. There are still 50 minutes left!” An eight-winged angel said respectfully.
However, there was still a trace of worry in the depths of his eyes. Everyone knew very well that Leng Yue Street had strong defenses and how many enemies there were. This time, Lord Tom had sent them to assist Qin Fei in snatching Leng Yue Street. Perhaps it would be unlucky.
These people were in a very low mood. They knew that they might have been used as cannon fodder, but there was nothing they could do about it. A low-grade angel was a chess piece of a high-grade angel, so they couldn’t help but feel helpless!
“Are you all afraid?” Qin Fei glanced at the crowd. Of course, he could understand their expressions.
“Sir, we are truly afraid. Cold Moon Street is guarded by Lord Hymin under Lord Gasol. His eight-winged angels are twice as many as ours and six-winged angels are three times as many. We will definitely be at a disadvantage in a fight!” The eight-winged man whispered, his voice trembling.
The others nodded their heads in agreement. They all looked at the empty streets vigilantly. Originally, there wasn’t a single person, but it made them feel as if they were facing thousands of troops.
