I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

The next morning.

On the outskirts of Jiangcheng, a colossal aircraft hovered silently in mid-air.

This is a luxury airship that is over 100 meters long.

The streamlined hull is made of expensive silver-white alloy, which reflects a luxurious luster under the morning sun.

On the side of the boat, the iconic golden shield emblem of the Heavenly Fortune Prefecture was painted, and around the emblem was a circle of unknown blue crystals that shimmered with a faint light in rhythm with breathing.

"Nuclear Whale".

This is the most expensive vehicle in Tianyun Prefecture, and its cost is equivalent to half of Jiangcheng's annual tax revenue.

now.

The luxurious cabin inside the airship.

Underfoot was a soft animal skin carpet that felt like walking on clouds, and above was a crystal chandelier that mimicked a starry sky. Several abstract paintings that looked very expensive hung on the surrounding walls.

A faint scent of incense filled the air; it's said that this stuff is more expensive than gold per gram and has a calming effect.

Shen Tian sank into the large leather sofa, holding a glass of freshly squeezed juice, and stared blankly at the slowly receding clouds outside the window.

"Too slow."

Shen Tian sighed and finally couldn't help but complain.

His current normal flight speed is 10 times the speed of sound, which is more than 12,000 kilometers per hour.

In its burst mode, it can reach speeds of up to 20 times the speed of sound.

In his eyes, this airship was no different from the wheelchairs that old men push around in the park.

It's not even as flexible as a wheelchair.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuan, who was sitting opposite him, froze for a moment with a smile.

Young people, you know.

They're still too young.

Little did they know, the purpose of riding in an airship was not for speed.

Rather, it was to highlight one's noble status.

The famous nobles of Tianyun Prefecture all travel by airship.

"Inspector Zhou, why don't we take a transport plane? Or just fly there?"

"Ahem!"

Zhou Xuan coughed twice, then resumed his composed demeanor, speaking with an earnest expression:

"Brother Shen, you don't understand."

"We're going to Tianyun City to report on our duties and to enjoy the honor."

"If you fly over looking travel-worn, with your hair a mess like a chicken coop, what kind of appearance would that be?"

Zhou Xuan pointed to the luxurious cabin and said with some pride:

"That's called prestige! Do you understand? In a place like Tianyun Prefecture, where powerful and wealthy people gather, strength is one aspect, but prestige is also a manifestation of strength."

"Only by taking an airship of this caliber and slowly landing at the airport of Tianyun City can you demonstrate your nobility and composure."

"That's called style."

Shen Tian nodded thoughtfully.

understood.

It has style.

However, since he didn't have to put in any effort and could just lie down and enjoy himself, Shen Tian didn't bother to argue.

Seeing that Shen Tian had stopped complaining about the slow speed, Zhou Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned around and carefully took out a beautifully packaged bottle of red wine from the constant-temperature wine cabinet behind him.

The label on the bottle has yellowed, indicating that it's a good product that's been around for a while.

"Come, Brother Shen."

Zhou Xuan skillfully decanted the wine, then poured the scarlet liquid into two stemmed glasses and gently swirled it.

"This is a fine wine from before the New Year. I've treasured it for five whole years and couldn't bear to drink it."

"To celebrate your unparalleled achievement in liberating the occupied territories of Jiangcheng and slaying the three-headed beast king, let's drink!"

Zhou Xuan picked up a wine glass, a sincere and ingratiating smile on his face, and handed it to Shen Tian.

This time, he genuinely wanted to befriend this young man with unlimited potential.

however.

Shen Tian raised his head and said earnestly:

"I'm sorry, Brother Zhou, I can't drink alcohol."

Zhou Xuan was stunned:

"Why? Are you allergic to alcohol?"

Or is this kid not giving me face?

It shouldn't be that bad. I've been smiling and promising good things these past few days, and the relationship has clearly improved a lot.

Shen Tian pointed to his slightly immature face and uttered three words with a righteous air:

"Minor".

"puff--"

Zhou Xuan, who was elegantly sipping his wine, suddenly spat out a mouthful of red wine.

Zhou Xuan, ignoring the wine stains on his lips, stared wide-eyed at Shen Tian as if he were looking at some prehistoric monster.

Zhou Xuan's lips twitched violently.

According to the records, Shen Tian is indeed only seventeen years old and a proper senior high school student.

But the problem is...

Who among the minors could carry a knife and single-handedly slaughter all the alien beasts in the occupied area as if they were cutting melons and vegetables?

Whose underage child would treat a fifth-tier beast king like a chicken?

When you were bathing in thunder amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood the other day, why didn't you remember that you were a minor?

When you held a knife to my throat and silenced me, a fifth-rank inspector, why didn't you remember that you were a minor?

Now I'm offering you a drink, and you're talking to me about being a minor?

Zhou Xuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Martial artists have physical abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people. They wouldn't get drunk even if they drank industrial alcohol, let alone red wine with an alcohol content of over ten degrees.

Alcohol paralysis?

That would only happen if Shen Tian were soaked in a vat of wine for three days and three nights.

"Okay...okay...it's good that you're underage."

Zhou Xuan was incredibly adaptable.

"Young man, self-discipline is a good thing, hehe, hehehe."

We can't talk today.

Zhou Xuan was about to turn around.

A large hand suddenly darted in.

He grabbed the wine bottle from Zhou Xuan's hand before he could put it down.

They didn't even use wine glasses.

Gumbling—

Gumbling—

The red liquid poured down the bottle neck like two rushing streams into Chixiao's mouth.

Only five seconds passed.

With a flick of his wrist, Chi Xiao sent the exquisite glass bottle flying through the air in an arc before landing steadily on the coffee table.

Not a drop of wine was left.

They even shook the wine dregs at the bottom of the bottle and swallowed them.

"ha--"

Chi Xiao wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth and exhaled a long breath of alcohol.

"Cool!"

Chi Xiao propped his legs up on the coffee table, sprawled out on the sofa without any regard for appearances, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Old Zhou, this wine is quite good."

"It's a bit weak, like mouthwash, but it has a smooth texture."

"Any more? Want another bottle?"

Zhou Xuan's hands were trembling.

Heart is bleeding.

He had treasured it for five years, and he wouldn't even part with a single bite of it himself. Today, he had to reluctantly part with it to please that pervert Shen Tian.

The result was good.

It didn't go into the owner's mouth, it all went into this bandit's belly!

Still think it's not strong enough?

Why don't you go drink the nuclear wastewater? That stuff is really potent!

"No...that's all."

However, the other party was also a half-step sixth-level expert, and an elder whom Shen Tian greatly respected.

"That's... a huge amount, a huge amount!"

Chi Xiao curled his lip, looking disgusted.

Zhou Xuan took a deep breath and told himself to stay calm.

The group chatted and laughed.

The airship finally crossed thousands of kilometers of wilderness.

The once barren landscape began to change.

At the edge of the horizon, the outline of a magnificent, breathtaking steel megacity slowly emerged.

Tianyun City.
