Chapter 357: Chapter 357: Initial Clash, Overwhelming Suppression

"Since you are stationed in the Tenth District, why did you come here at this critical moment?"

The other party’s frankness did confuse Su Qi a bit, but he quickly reacted. Denying would only expose more details.

It seems these individuals are not easy to deal with, so Su Qi became even more vigilant.

As soon as these words were spoken.

The expressions of the people opposite instantly turned unnatural. Even in the Holy City, they were figures of admiration; when had they ever been questioned by a young lad like this?

If it weren’t for them... sigh.

However, Ning Zhengnan among them still wanted to act tough: "What, do we need to report to you about what we do?"

However, his response was met with a golden hammer that split the sky.

When they saw Su Qi summon the Hammer of Divine Punishment, sensing the terrifying pressure emanating from it, they realized the harsh reality of being at his mercy.

At this moment, Lu Zhan had to step forward, looking very fearful at the golden hammer, hurriedly making up a lie: "The Tenth District has suffered an unprecedented intrusion with eerie creatures whose power is terrifying, some even reaching the level of Catastrophes!"

"We were utterly overwhelmed, managing to escape only with great effort!"

He spoke rapidly, but internally, he felt as if he’d eaten something disgusting.

As a transcendent on the Ancient Sword Dao Path, influenced by this path, he had long developed a decisive and fierce nature.

Now, resorting to such compromise was completely against his nature, making him extremely uncomfortable.

And these words left the others utterly dumbfounded as well.

No.

Even in the Nine Abyss Holy City, a famously stubborn and creepy old weirdo, had never displayed this side before; they truly hadn’t witnessed it.

During this time, Lu Zhan’s heart was filled with dark hatred, terrifying Sword Intent weaving inside him. If he had a chance to regain his strength, he swore to hack the fellow before him into pieces!

Only then would he relieve the hatred in his heart!

However, his words sounded impeccable, as the intercity communications were fully paralyzed now, and the opponent had no way to know the situation in the Tenth District unless they personally went there.

Now, with the eerie forces rampant, and considering the opponent had to guard the Ninth District, they likely didn’t have the time to verify its truth.

Even if they stubbornly went to verify, the time back and forth would be enough for them to regain strength!

So he was betting that the opponent wasn’t one to indiscriminately commit slaughter.

After listening, Su Qi’s gaze wandered over the five people.

Although the reasons given by the opponents seemed impeccable, he still felt that things wouldn’t be as simple as they claimed.

Yet he lacked solid evidence, so he could only suppress his urge to kill, asking straightforwardly: "Then if you still had the strength to carve out a safe area here, why didn’t you break out of this changed land and seek help from the Ninth District?"

This question was difficult to answer because it went beyond what would be expected of refugees.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Even Lu Zhan’s tone faltered, his gaze evasive, unable to respond.

At this moment, the female Destruction-level Transcendent Tong Qi, her mind rapidly working, slowly stepped forward, remaining calm, and even responded, "Young brother, don’t rush."

"Nowadays, with the mysterious forces rampant and just having survived a calamity that wiped out a city, intending to seek assistance from the Ninth District, but consider this: under such circumstances, suddenly seeing a complete city, wouldn’t you be afraid?"

"What if it’s some mysterious power creating an illusion to lure us? In our current state, wouldn’t that be extremely dangerous?"

This explanation was flawless. If Su Qi hadn’t felt a trace of malice earlier, he might have almost believed it.

The brilliance of these words further lay in probing the intentions of the Ninth District.

There was little choice. After all, the information from Pei Jing only advised being wary of these Destruction-level Transcendents from the Nine Abyss Holy City; even Pei Jing couldn’t ascertain whether these individuals would be harmful or keep their distance.

Thus, under the premise of not killing randomly, there were only two methods: either allow them to rest here or invite them into the Ninth District for Principal Pei to make a personal decision.

But no matter what, both carried significant risks. The former played right into the opponent’s hands, as once these five regained full strength, they’d pose a substantial threat. As for the latter, should the opponents suddenly rebel, despite severely reduced strength, they could still cause great destruction in the complex urban area.

After a brief hesitation, Su Qi quickly thought of a way to handle it.

He waved his arm, and five Holy Lock Rings flew out of thin air, directly covering the opponents’ heads.

Instantly, Lu Zhan and the others felt the Power of Imprisonment within, their faces changing drastically, fearfully protesting, "What... what do you mean by this? We don’t interfere with each other; why treat those who came for support like this!?"

Seeing them desperately utilizing their Extraordinary Power to resist the Power of Imprisonment of the Holy Lock Rings, Su Qi immediately brandished the Hammer of Divine Punishment, then brought it down heavily.

Bang!

The Hammer of Divine Punishment struck the ground, instantly forming countless cracks.

"I advise you not to entertain any other thoughts. These are special times, so the Ninth District’s control will be stricter. This is merely a means to ensure your safety and will not harm you."

Yes, he almost forgot, in the Extraordinary World, power reigns supreme; this is an eternal and simple truth.

Rather than wasting words here, it was better to imprison their power and capture them to the Ninth District first.

Though this method might insult the sincerely helpful Transcendents, compared to the safety of the Ninth District and an apology to resolve the issue, Su Qi’s choice remained with no hesitation.

And with the deterrence of the Hammer of Divine Punishment, Lu Zhan and the others were clearly flustered, not expecting such forcefulness from someone so young.

But the situation outweighed their resistance, and they had no choice but to surrender, allowing the mysterious circles to contract.

However, as the circles contracted, they realized the gravity of the situation.

They...

found themselves unable to mobilize even the remaining power!

It seemed as if they were completely cut off from their Extraordinary Power, reduced entirely to ordinary people!

"What... what a joke!?"

If it were merely some restrictions on their power, they could accept, but this Power of Imprisonment went beyond their understanding!

What level of power could entirely imprison the Extraordinary Power of a top-tier Destruction-level expert like this!?
