"What are you talking about!?"
Wang Botong, held in Qin Heng's grasp, was not fearful at all. He glared at Qin Heng and sneered, "You little beast, I'm telling you, let
go now, and you might live. Otherwise, your entire family will die!"
His tone was incredibly sinister, filled with intense murderous intent. Even his eyes turned blood red, and he resembled a bloodthirsty demon!!
"Be careful! There's sothing wrong with Secretary Wang!!" Chen Yuhan scread in horror, her face draining of color. She pointed at Wang Botong, her voice trembling, "His back, there's sothing growing out of his back!!"
No sooner had she finished speaking...
SPLAT!!
Four large blood blisters suddenly burst open on Wang Botong's back, splattering flesh and blood, and then four tentacles, thick as an adult's arm and covered with scales and spikes, shot out!!
They were four to five ters long!!
Whipping and dancing in the air, dripping with blood!!
Unspeakably horrifying!!
BOOM!
One of the tentacles lashed out randomly, instantly shattering the air and unleashing violent shockwaves!
The trendous force caused houses over ten ters away to instantly collapse and incidentally killed a dozen mbers of the Ye family!
"A monster! A monster!!"
"My God! What is happening!??"
The Ye family mbers were petrified, staring in disbelief at Wang Botong, who was held in Qin Heng's hand!!
What was going on!??
Just a mont ago, he was a normal person; how could he suddenly have turned into a monster!!
"HAHAHA! Do you see? Do you see!!"
Wang Botong laughed madly, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Qin Heng with utter triumph. "Do you see my power now? You ants, do you think Martial Artists are strong? Hahaha!! I have received a gift from that great one! You dare to lay hands on ; you're courting death!!"
"Master!!" Ye Jiajia exclaid, her face deathly pale.
She was extrely worried about Qin Heng!
After all, Wang Botong, as he looked now, seed truly terrifying!
And too dangerous!!
Qin Heng was still gripping his neck, placing him dangerously close and in the direct line of fire!
"Benefactor, be careful!!"
Chen Qing and Chen Yuhan also shouted loudly, having recognized Qin Heng. Seeing Qin Heng so near the monster, their hearts leaped to their throats!
However, at that very mont, a sickening CRACK! echoed—the sound of shattering bones!
Wang Botong's rampant laughter ca to an abrupt halt!
The four tentacles that had been flailing in the air also dropped limply!!
Then, like ice sculptures lting, they turned into pitch-black blood and flowed onto the ground, emitting an unbearably foul sll.
SIZZLE!!
The stone tiles on the ground hissed with the sound of corrosion as the pitch-black, stinking blood flowed over them, etching deep grooves into the tiles!!
Terrifying!
Utterly terrifying!!
Even after his death, the blood that flowed out possessed such horrific corrosive properties!?
Everyone was in utter shock as they gazed at the blood on the ground, then turned their attention to the now-dead Wang Botong. They looked at his corpse, still held in Qin Heng's hand, their gazes still retaining a hint of terror.
Just monts ago, Wang Botong had suddenly transford into a monster with a terrifying appearance and horrifying power, making them feel as though their lives could be reaped at any mont!!
Yet such a horrifying monster!
Was so effortlessly killed by the young man before them!!?
"So strong! So powerful!!"
"An Immortal! This must be an Immortal, right? How else could soone deal with a monster so swiftly!?"
"Who is this person, exactly? Too formidable!!"
The bystanders watched Qin Heng with utter amazent. No matter what they had thought of him before, they now held only one feeling towards Qin Heng: adoration!!
It was an unparalleled adoration!
Adoration for great power, especially in tis of danger, is a common trait of humanity!
"Our benefactor truly is an Immortal!" Chen Qing also exclaid, hope rising in his heart.
The monster that Wang Botong mutated into was actually not the first of its kind in Longxi Province and the surrounding region. From half a month ago to the present, there had already been two others. Including Wang Botong, that made three!!
He was currently on a business trip to discreetly investigate cases of human-to-monster mutations in other regions. Since it was a covert investigation, he maintained a very low profile, not even bringing an entourage.
Every such monster had required the local security group to mobilize at least a hundred fully ard security personnel, who had to exert all their effort just to eliminate it!!
When Wang Botong mutated just now, Chen Qing originally thought all those present were dood.
But unexpectedly, the benefactor who had saved him from the robbers casually crushed this terrifying monster to death!!
So strong!!
THUD!
Qin Heng dropped Wang Botong's body on the ground, his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he thought to himself, Buddha's rhy... So this strange power, a fusion with the Demonic Qi of the Parasitic Soul Clan, is actually a strand of Buddha's rhy! The Parasitic Soul Clan are just lesser demons, with very crude thods. It's nearly impossible for them to remotely corrupt soone's mind, let alone their physical body, causing them to mutate into a half-human, half-demon monster. Especially in this End of Dharma Age! Spiritual energies are quiescent, and the Laws are obscure; the thods of such lesser demons would be severely restricted. Wang Botong exhibited a bizarre power—a fusion of Demonic Qi and sothing else—that corrupted his mind and flesh, even mutating him into a monster. He must have co into contact with sothing... or soone. Most likely that Parasitic Soul Clan mber who fled from Beijing to Longxi. For the Parasitic Soul Clan's thods to corrupt soone to the point of mutation, they would need power equivalent to the Golden Core Stage. That's almost impossible on present-day Earth.
A glint of thought flashed in Qin Heng's eyes as he pondered. He reached out and plucked a fingernail-sized speck of golden light from Wang Botong's corpse, which settled into his palm.
This bit of golden light spiraled and shone in Qin Heng's palm, like the illumination of Buddha's light, and it made the people around feel a sense of warmth as if basking in a spring breeze.
Interesting. Buddha and demon... a fine line, their strengths and weaknesses intertwined. It was like this in my past life; I didn't expect this parallel world to be the sa. A realization suddenly dawned in Qin Heng's heart, stirring a wave of excitent within him. Perhaps this touches upon the Supre Law, a principle universally applicable across the infinite heavens! This warrants careful study. Later, I'll summon Secretary Wang's soul for questioning.
To think that casually dealing with a monster corrupted by Demonic Qi could lead to such a discovery was indeed an unexpected boon.
BOOM!!
Just then, a thunderous roar ca from the sky!!
WHOOSH WHOOSH!!
A gale swept in from afar, dispersing the clouds above!
Suddenly, a trail of golden light streaked across the night sky!
Shining like a teor, it crossed vast distances in an instant, with a deafening roar like a thousand thunders, and appeared in the sky more than one hundred ters above the Ye family mansion!!
All eyes turned upwards.
And then they were stunned!
A person!
Was it actually a person, flying through the sky!?
"Hahaha! You little beast! Let's see you act so arrogant now! My master has arrived!! You're dood!!" Wei San's voice suddenly echoed; he wasn't dead after all!!
