Traveling Between Two Worlds: From Bread for Maids to Fantasy Overlord

Chapter 163: Cultivators Venture into the City, Firearms Show Their Power Once Again

Once again transported back to the city, Huang Yiming instantly appeared downstairs at his company. Looking into the distance, the company's glass curtain wall was shattered, thick smoke billowed from the upper floors, and the sounds of fighting and screams could be faintly heard. His expression changed drastically, and in a flash, he rushed into the office building.

The office was a mess; desks and chairs were smashed to pieces, and several injured employees lay on the floor, groaning in pain. A cultivator in a black Taoist robe, with a sinister face, hovered in mid-air, a ball of black spiritual energy gathering in his hand, and charged towards Su Qingyue. Su Qingyue hid behind her desk, her face pale, her eyes filled with fear, but she did not back down, clutching the pistol left by Huang Yiming tightly, ready to retaliate at any moment.

Standing to the side, Lin Shao wore a smug smile and shouted at the cultivator, "Elder Wang, kill her! Kill Su Qingyue, and then kill that good-for-nothing Huang Yiming! I will reward you handsomely!"

The cultivator known as Elder Wang was a Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator from the Black Stone Sect. He sneered, his tone disdainful: "Just a mortal woman, does she even deserve my attention? Today, I will not only kill her, but also find that good-for-nothing Huang Yiming, seize the rare item from his possession, and return to report!"

As the spiritual energy cloud drew closer, Su Qingyue gritted her teeth, raised her pistol, and pulled the trigger at Elder Wang. However, the bullet struck the spiritual energy barrier surrounding Elder Wang and was instantly deflected, failing to harm him in the slightest.

"You mortal artifacts, how dare you show off your skills in front of me?" Elder Wang sneered, and the ball of spiritual energy suddenly accelerated, hurtling towards Su Qingyue.

At this critical moment, Huang Yiming flashed and rushed to Su Qingyue's side, pulling her behind him. At the same time, he took out a high-precision rifle from his storage space, aimed the muzzle at Elder Wang, injected dual-realm energy, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

The bullet shot out with a piercing whistling sound, its power even greater than the bullets used against the Qingyun Sect disciples. Elder Wang's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly reinforced the spiritual energy barrier, but the bullet, containing dual-realm energy, pierced through the barrier directly, grazing his shoulder and leaving a deep wound from which blood gushed out instantly.

"Who?" Elder Wang whirled around, his eyes fixed on Huang Yiming with a sinister glint. "You're Huang Yiming?"

Huang Yiming shielded Su Qingyue behind him, looking at Elder Wang with icy eyes and disdain: "A Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator from the Black Stone Sect? Nothing special."

When Lin Shao saw that Huang Yiming had returned and injured Elder Wang, his expression changed drastically. However, remembering Elder Wang's strength, he mustered his courage and shouted at him, "Elder Wang, it's him! He's Huang Yiming! Kill him and seize the rare item he has!"

Elder Wang frowned, his eyes filled with apprehension. He could sense that although Huang Yiming's aura was well concealed, it was definitely not simple—the power of that bullet had actually pierced through his spiritual energy barrier, something that an ordinary Qi Refining stage cultivator could not accomplish.

But he was, after all, a Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator, a figure of some standing in the Black Stone Sect. Being injured by an unknown youth, he naturally wouldn't let it go. He gritted his teeth, his spiritual energy surging, instantly stopping the bleeding from his wound. His eyes flashed with a vicious glint as he glared at Huang Yiming: "Boy, you dare hurt me? Today I'll tear you to pieces!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Wang flashed forward and charged towards Huang Yiming. He condensed a larger ball of black spiritual energy in his hand, which carried a pungent, fishy smell, indicating that he had cultivated some kind of evil technique.

Huang Yiming sneered, calmly taking a step back while pulling the trigger again. Bullets imbued with dual-realm energy shot towards Elder Wang, forcing him to retreat repeatedly and continuously reinforce his spiritual energy barrier, making it impossible for him to get even half a step closer to Huang Yiming.

Lin Shao, standing to the side, was dumbfounded—he never expected Huang Yiming to be so powerful, able to suppress even a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining. He originally thought Elder Wang could easily deal with Huang Yiming, but he didn't expect things to turn out this way.

Elder Wang grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. He discovered that Huang Yiming's bullets were not only incredibly powerful but also extremely fast, and his spiritual energy barrier couldn't withstand them for long. If this continued, he would eventually be worn down by Huang Yiming. What puzzled him even more was that the "ordinary artifacts" in Huang Yiming's hands could unleash such immense power; this was simply illogical.

While deflecting bullets, he curiously examined the rifle in Huang Yiming's hand, then glanced at the office air conditioner—its cold air blowing fiercely. His eyes lit up, mistaking the air conditioner for some kind of cold-air magic, and he arrogantly pointed at it, saying, "Kid, you think you can defeat me with these unorthodox cold-air techniques? You're too naive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked out the window at the parked car, mistaking it for some kind of demonic beast mount, and continued, "And those iron demonic beasts can't save you either! Today, you are doomed!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Yiming couldn't help but laugh out loud, his tone mocking: "Country bumpkin cultivator, don't spout nonsense if you've never seen the world. That's called an air conditioner, not a cold air technique; that's a car, not an iron monster. It seems that you Black Stone Sect cultivators are nothing but a bunch of ignorant fools."

"You dare insult me?" Elder Wang's face turned ashen with rage. His spiritual energy surged once more, and ignoring the bullets, he charged towards Huang Yiming, shouting, "I'm going to kill you!"

Huang Yiming's eyes turned cold, his mockery ceasing, and he aimed his rifle at Elder Wang again. This time, he channeled even more dual-realm energy into the bullet, a faint light flashing from the muzzle: "Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"

"Bang!"

This shot was far more powerful than the previous one. The bullet instantly pierced Elder Wang's spiritual energy barrier, striking him directly in the chest and penetrating his heart. Elder Wang's body stiffened, staring incredulously at the wound in his chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood, then flew backward, crashing heavily to the ground, lifeless.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Shao trembled with fear, his legs buckled, and he collapsed to his knees, his face ashen. He pleaded repeatedly, "Mr. Huang... I was wrong. I shouldn't have sought Elder Wang's help against you. Please forgive me! I'll never dare to do it again!"

Huang Yiming slowly walked up to him, looking at him coldly, his tone indifferent: "Let you go? When you were about to kill Qingyue, why didn't you think of letting her go? You colluded with foreign forces, maliciously suppressed my company, and injured my employees. How am I supposed to settle this score with you?"

Terrified, Young Master Lin kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead bleeding from the effort. "Mr. Huang, I'll give you money, all the money in the Lin family, please let me go! I'll never dare to do it again!"

Huang Yiming sneered, about to speak, when a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind: [High-level spiritual vein fluctuations detected, suspected to be the appearance of the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Clan, coordinates: depths of Black Wind Ridge in the Mystic Realm. The spiritual vein fluctuations are unusually strong, possibly containing high-level spiritual herbs or treasures. Please go and investigate as soon as possible.]

At the same time, he also sensed an increasingly strong aura of the Qingyun Sect coming from the fantasy world—clearly, the people of the Qingyun Sect were about to arrive at Yiming Village.

Huang Yiming frowned: on one side were the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Clan and high-level spiritual herbs from the fantasy world, as well as the impending threat from the Qingyun Sect; on the other side was the unresolved issue of Young Master Lin in the city, and the safety of Su Qingyue. He was once again caught in a dilemma.

Su Qingyue walked to Huang Yiming's side, gently tugged at his arm, and said in a gentle tone, "Yiming, I'm fine. You go and deal with the matters in the fantasy world first. I'll take care of things here. I'll hand over Young Master Lin to the relevant departments to handle. Don't worry about it."

Huang Yiming looked at Su Qingyue and nodded. He knew Su Qingyue was right; the matters of the Xuanhuan Realm were more urgent: the appearance of the Spirit Clan's Holy Maiden might bring unexpected opportunities, and the people from the Qingyun Sect were about to arrive at Yiming Village, so Qin Yuling and Yang Xiu could be in danger at any moment.

He glanced coldly at Lin Shao, his tone icy: "Consider yourself lucky. I don't have time to deal with you today. Qingyue will hand you over to the relevant authorities. The evidence of your collusion with foreign forces and intentional harm to others is enough to keep you in prison for life."

After saying that, he ignored Lin Shao, who was lying on the ground, turned around, hugged Su Qingyue, and kissed her on the forehead: "Wait for me to come back."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Su Qingyue nodded, her eyes filled with reluctance.

Huang Yiming activated the system's teleportation function, and his figure vanished from the office in an instant. Unbeknownst to him, after he left, Lin Shao's phone suddenly rang. Lin Shao answered the phone with trembling hands, and a cold voice came from the other end: "Lin Shao, Elder Wang is dead. Now, it's our turn to make our move..."
