Chapter 275 Being Killed at A Single Palm
After a while with no one answering on the spot, the head of the WS delegation Sika broke the silence.
As the man in charge of the delegation, Sika was sophisticated and well-experienced. While Qin Hao's words had shocked him, he managed to calm down within a short time.
The delegation of the WS represented a whole country in the battle, to which the media from all other countries in the world were paying close attention. Now that they had admitted defeat, the Huaxia had no reason to kill them, or the international community would rise against it and would cause a diplomatic crisis between Huaxia and the WS. This was beyond Qin Hao's responsibility, so he thought that as long as they didn't provoke first, Qin Hao dared not to do something excessive to them, let alone to kill them.
Thinking of it, Sika said calmly, "Instructor Qin, we've admitted defeat, you have no rights to kill us now. Besides, we came here for the battle, not to kill people or be killed. If you dare to kill our people, I'll protest your country and appeal to the international court."
All the people on the spot didn't know that Sika could do such reasoning. While Huaxia people were rather angry about him, they had to admit that, politically, this guy was super cunning and shameless.
Qin Hao sneered, "Can you be more shameless? If you're not here to kill people, then who killed these people?" Qin Hao was staring at those scorched bodies on and down the arena, "Have they burnt themselves?"
"That's just an accident. In such a battle it's natural." Sika retorted righteously.
Qin Hao was so angry that he laughed ironically, "What an accident."
Words done, Qin Hao moved his hand suddenly and rapidly. A few silver needles, nearly invisible to human eyes, were shot and flew away all the way to a super warrior's head beside Sika.
The acupuncture points were hit so accurately that the warrior directly fell down beside Sika without uttering a word, which shocked Sika a lot.
Others were confused too, how could the man die so suddenly.
On the spot, due to the thinness of needles and Qin Hao's super speed, most people simply didn't see how Qin Hao did that with their ordinary eyesight. Either did low-level Martial Cultivators.
If there was someone who could see clearly the silver needles that Qin Hao shot, the skinny old man in charge of the delegation of Gapan-Aikawa was the only one.
But Aikawa only saw a flash of silver, then the man fell down. He was astonished in his heart: with such a speed, it would be unavoidable for even a master like him. This meant that when facing Qin Hao, he wouldn't make it fend off even a casual blow of hidden weapons.
Sika, though, didn't see how Qin Hao did that, he knew it was Qin Hao for sure, and shouted angrily, "Instructor Qin, do you really wanna destroy the relationship between our countries?"
"Haha." Qin Hao laughed slyly, "Distinguished sir, I don't want to destroy the relationship between our countries. I have nothing to do with the man's death. I think it's just an accident. Moreover, did you see it was me."
"Accident?" Sika was struck dumb. What he had said was now returned to him. And he really didn't see it was Qin Hao as well as the video from the camera. Even if he wanted to appeal to the international court, he had no evidence.
"One more time, if you don't want to die accidentally like that, stand out, to die like a man on the arena," said Qin Hao without caring about Sika's feeling, which shocked everyone a lot. They realized now that Qin Hao wasn't lying or bragging. He said because he would do it. Although they didn't see Qin Hao kill the man, they knew it must have something to do with him.
Li Zhanwu, on the grandstand, had wanted to go to the arena and talk about it with Qin Hao. If the matter was aggravated and was submitted to the international court, that would be a big problem. He was not like Qin Hao who cared about nothing. He had to take much more things into consideration.
However, when he saw that no one could see Qin Hao's movements, leaving no evidence, he decided to let it go. The better for all of those people to be killed, anyway, they could simply attribute it to an "accident".
He was even thinking that he had to thank Mr. Sika. If it weren't him by talking about the word "accident", Qin Hao wouldn't have realized that. Otherwise, according to his knowledge to Qin Hao, the latter would kill those people directly, leaving evidence for others. If it was so, Huaxia would be very passive in the international community.
Now he didn't have to worry. All could be attributed to an "accident". What a fantastic "accident".
"General Li, why haven't you tried to stop that maniac's action? Did you really wanna destroy our relationship through this matter?" Sika would like to continue to question Li Zhanwu, but the latter interrupted him.
"Cough cough, Mr. Sika, perhaps you've mistaken. Besides the accidental death of Locke in the battle just now, all of us on the spot didn't see that it was instructor Qin who killed that warrior. So, personally speaking, I think it's just an accident. I think even by letting judges of the international court adjudicate on this issue, they will think the same."
While Li Zhanwu was speaking, he was laughing complacently in his heart.
"Of course, for your warriors' accidental death, I feel deep sympathy for it. For the sake of humanitarianism, and considering that your men died within our border, we'll grant a 10,000 RMB compensation for their funeral expenses."
Words done, Li Zhanwu just couldn't help laughing loudly from inside.
So did others. 10,000 RMB, how could he even say that? Were super warriors of the WS that valueless?
All looks that were targeted at Sika were full of mockery.
Sika was struck dumb but not for one man beside him, who shouted, "I'll challenge you. Warriors from the WS will never be defeated, never."
Accompanied by the shout, a tough-looking western man rushed to the arena, who was exactly the man who came alone to the headquarters of the Sky Group-Avier.
Looking at Avier, Qin Hao raised his eyebrows, "You're a man. Come on. I'll let you attack first and won't strike back, but you'll get only one chance."
"Ok, you're pretty haughty. I'll let you pay for insulting our warriors from the WS." Then Avier yelled, "God of lightning, give me strength. Perish, ignorant human!"
"Splatt splatt..."
At the moment, high in the sky, rolls of thunder could be heard. Dense lightning struck all the way to Qin Hao's head and swallowed him up immediately. He disappeared into the lightning. Everywhere in the arena were full of rampageous lightning.
This shocked countless people down the arena. Did Qin Hao die?
Li Zhanwu was so shocked that he stood up immediately, anxiously watching, with the heart in his throat. The lightning and praying for Qin Hao who was inside: please don't let anything bad happen to Qin Hao.
However, Qin Hao was also flesh and blood. How could he be fine with so dense lightning striking him?
At this point Li Zhanwu really wanted to curse Qin Hao badly. How fucking could he let the man attack first at such a life-or-death moment? Damn you!
The lightning rampaged for nearly one minute. After that, the lightning disappeared soon, giving peace back to the arena.
People all stood up now, observing any movements on the arena with eyes wide open, holding their breath. They were all wanting to know what happened to Qin Hao.
At the place on the grandstand of the WS, Sika and others were smiling complacently again. They knew Qin Hao was strong but didn't think he could survive it after being struck by such fierce lightning. How could flesh and blood compete with the strongest force of nature-lightning? After being struck by such dense lightning, anyone, if hadn't been turned into ashes, must be dead. Qin Hao had finally paid for his haughtiness, the price of death.
"Huaxia people were all the same as their forefathers, always living in their haughtiness." Sika sneered in his heart. He had forgotten that just now it was them who were living in haughtiness.
However, they were surprised a lot at what happened. Qin Hao hadn't been turned into ashes but still stood on the arena. However, he was in an awkward state now.
His hat had gone nowhere. And his hair was all sticking up with smoke rising from inside.
His clothes had also been struck badly and mostly burnt with smoke rising now. If he hadn't used his Spirit Strength to protect his clothes, he would have been naked. If so, the stern image as the instructor of the Sky Group would be ruined.
He had underestimated his enemy. He hadn't expected that the damn guy could draw lightning. What a tough blow.
Luckily, he had cultivated Skin Refining. It was not a problem for him to bear the lightning. But his clothes were not his skin. They couldn't bear such a powerful strength.
"Hahaha, how is it, instructor Qin? This is what you have to pay for insulting us. Come on. Just fall dow. Don't pretend to be okay anymore." Avier laughed complacently. He thought no one could withstand the attack he launched just now, and the reason Qin Hao hadn't fallen down as he was just pretending to be okay and wouldn't like to fall down.
Qin Hao, whose face was struck and turned into a little black, smiled, exposing his white teeth inside, "Pretending? You're the one that is gonna fall down."
Then Qin Hao launched a palm with its shadow hitting Avier with a bang. Avier disappeared weirdly like a gust of wind immediately.
Before everyone figured out what happened, a huge sound of "boom" had been heard from behind. A far building was struck, leaving a huge hole with a shape of a human palm. Inside the black hole, Avier, as flattened as a meat pie, was inlaid in the wall like the way Locke was killed, being killed at a single palm, fast and thorough.
"Uh..."
People were staring at the palm-shaped hole with eyes wide open. They opened their mouths and wanted to say something but were just too shocked to utter a word.
Such a destructive force, could it be possibly made by a mortal?
Was Qin Hao still a human?
People who were mostly shocked were those with Sika. They all stood up looking at the huge palm-shaped hole. Apart from the panic in their eyes, dread was spreading in their minds too. Someone even started to tremble, as if it might come to them the next moment.
