Chapter 326
The instant Lu Shu sensed the Spirit Qi waves, he looked outside, only to see a humongous flood peak rise and swell towards the bridge, like a giant water wall . It was only over twenty meters away and it would not be long before it would crush the train .
The water wall was so condensed that even foam was trapped inside . Lu Shu could even foresee that should this wall fall on them, the entire bridge would collapse in a split second .
Was that the power of water wielding? Surprisingly, the first thought that occurred in Lu Shu’s mind upon the sight of it, was the hope that one day the terrific power could be his .
Although one could not compare rivers with seas, it was already frightening enough . Imagine a river pouring down from the sky, as though aiming for total destruction!
“Enemies!” Lu Shu loudly shouted .
At this moment, the temperature suddenly dropped in the sweltering heat . Lu Shu watched his breath turn into white vapor before it froze on the window glass .
The twelve people ran towards them at full speed, each demonstrating their own skills .
Suddenly, a buff guy jumped from the riverside and then, as if manipulated by a mysterious force, was shot straight towards the 12th carriage where Lu Shu was seated . He looked like a crazy flying bomb from Guns&Steel!
Ashore, another person fully extended his hand, his chestnut-colored hair flew backwards in the wind . He emitted huge blasts of cold waves from his body, which instantly turned all the remaining vapors splashed out from the flood peak into sharp ice blades, which tore everything along their path apart .
The rest ran along the railway . Their mission was to kill everyone in the 12th carriage in ten minutes .
In this instance, Lu Shu was still staring at the massive flood peak outside . They would soon engulf the world like undefeatable monsters . Everything seemed to fall into silence .
The sparkling ice blades were yet to cease .
The flowing and ebbing of the sea .
The rising and setting of the sun .

Gone and returned with the wind .
The elements were the sole truth in this world . The rest were nothing but illusions .
Lu Shu raised his hand . Instantly, the glass in front of him shattered . All celestial strength from his celestial map gushed out, like the invading soldiers in the War of the Century as they charged all-out .
They were in a frenzy!
The elemental power in Lu Shu was rapidly depleted due to his seemingly easy action of raising his hand . But that was no issue at all . There was still his celestial strength!
His celestial strength was converted into the power of water elements at a crazy speed as it thundered towards the giant wave . In the empty compartment, Lu Shu’s pupils changed from black to aqua-blue, in which a sea of stars permeated .
Stillness!
Absolute stillness!
It was not the world that was still . It was the wave! Two manipulators of water elements started to vie vigorously for control over the water . As a result, the flood peak froze in place like a scenic photograph .
This scene was almost miraculous .
No one had any idea of what was going on . Even the other confused and frightened students on the train were dumbfounded by the stillness outside . How could a flood peak possibly stop? This was nonsensical .
All of this gave them the illusion that the world had stopped moving .
At that moment, calmness was all that Lu Shu felt . But in his calmness, he sensed the intrusion of another force that was helping him .
That force was inexplicable . It was that inexplicability, which made it more like a rule than a force .
However, in this instance, a startling glint of swords shot up into the clouds, slashing up towards the hanging waterfall in the sky! The flash was from none other than the 13th carriage, the one at the rear .
The gash cut through the full length of the flood peak, as it almost tore the world apart .
The universe also faded, as though all the stars and galaxies had been slit open .

Suddenly, a mysterious force shattered every piece of the last two carriages . To everyone’s astonishment, a person in a black cloak rose to the sky and something in the river fled for their life . Under the cloak, Nie Ting sneered, his handsome face covered in frost, “You made me wait for too long! We, the Heavenly Network, have 21 lives waiting for you in the netherworld . An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!”
The glare of the sword was as cold as snow . It could seemingly freeze all the rivers in the world .
As though there appeared a gigantic rock out of thin air, the torrential yellow river was divided into two!
Lifeless, a chopped human form suddenly revealed itself and flowed downstream with the current .
This left Nie Ting hovering alone in mid air, while his cloak flapped in the shrieking wind .
Class A… That was the flight ability attainable only in Class A!
The remaining twelve took to their heels as soon as they saw Nie Ting . In the information given to them, there was only mention of goods in the 13th carriage, but no single word about the person they dreaded the most!
Lu Shu had recalled all his celestial power the moment the flash appeared . Even for him, the feeling of exhaustion was unavoidable . No matter how strong he was, Lu Shu could never defeat a Class B opponent .
If Nie Ting had not appeared, he might not have been able to sustain another three minutes before everything would be destroyed .
After all, all of the Class A aptitude geniuses were just bait in Nie Ting’s grand gambling game of revenge .
How spiteful was his hatred!
And how bold of him?!
But when the carriages were crushed, Lu Shu was shocked to see that Cao Qingci held her hand up at the flood peak just as he had done . Could it be that the incredible power earlier was actually from this girl?
Lu Shu was aware that she was a Metahuman . But her power… What type of power was it to give it its unworldly attributes?
He knew very well that if he himself were Nie Ting, he would never have the courage to do such things . But what he could not imagine was that Nie Ting had successfully ascended to Class A after his short disappearance .
Thus, with two Class A masters in charge, the country’s Heavenly Network was indeed invincible .
But the problem was, for someone as superior as the leader of the Heavenly Network, why did he keep playing the role of an assassin? It was damn scary!
The raiders might have expected to meet a Heavenly King there, but never had they ever anticipated Nie Ting, who had just returned to the capital but suddenly appeared on a train moving up north . Moreover, he had long since hidden in the 13th carriage .
Their false information had also led to their ignorance of Nie Ting’s ascension to Class A .
Truth be told, Lu Shu was rejoiced that Nie Ting was on the train . Had he not been there, it was too risky for him to confront a Class B head on . If his celestial power was completely drained, he might need to rely on his physical strength in the fight .
If he had been brought into the water by the flood peak, his chances of survival would have been extremely slim, given the Class B abilities of his water Metahuman opponent .
Nie Ting finished the twelve people neatly and quickly . After he was done, he flew back above the bridge and told Cao Qingci calmly, “Remember to file a report on the hidden Metahuman’s power . “
Then, he turned to everybody, “Everyone, there will be people coming to fetch you . See you in the Capital . “
After he finished his sentence, Nie Ting soared into the sky, immediately disappearing into the horizon .
Exhausted, Lu Shu sat on the bridge and thought to himself, did Nie Ting not notice his use of water Metahuman abilities just now? Or did Cao Qingci cover for him?
