Jin’an City, second floor of the Hundred Arts Teahouse.
"Have you heard? The Lu Family, a dozen or so people, were slaughtered last night! The entrance is still sealed by the Foolish Underworld, preventing us from going near."
"Of course I’ve heard, such a big incident, how could I not know? Last night, the fire at the Lu Family could be seen by anyone who was awake!"
"Such sin, murdering people is one thing, but killing a whole family of more than ten, how great must the hatred be!"
"Isn’t the Foolish Underworld still investigating? Such a huge case, surely news will come out soon. If these atrociously evil culprits aren’t quickly brought to justice, we ordinary people won’t be able to sleep and eat in peace."
Among those talking, there was someone who remained silent, with even the hand holding the water cup trembling slightly without realizing it.
They were all old acquaintances, naturally noticing their friend’s abnormality.
"Lao Song, what’s wrong with you?"
"Sigh... Lao Song usually was close to Old Lu, now with the sudden loss of Old Lu’s family, he naturally feels very... sigh!"
"Lao Song, take it easy, the Foolish Underworld is always strict about these cases; they won’t let the murderer go!"
The crowd’s comforting seemed to soothe Lao Song’s emotions.
He raised his head, glanced at his old friends around, and suddenly stood up.
"Everyone, I, I suddenly remembered an urgent matter at home, I need to go back right away."
Lao Song’s absent-mindedness had already somewhat killed the mood.
Though called friends, they were essentially drinking buddies, merely acquainted for a longer time.
Thus, when Lao Song wanted to leave, no one tried to stop him, only reminded him to be careful on the way.
Lao Song cupped his hands in salute, then turned and quickly walked towards the staircase.
Perhaps due to haste, or his mind being elsewhere, he nearly bumped into a pair of man and woman coming upstairs.
"Sorry, sorry."
Without lifting his head, without really seeing them, Lao Song hurried downstairs.
[Song Bixiu: 15643/15643.]
Fang Yu:...
"Husband? Husband!"
Fang Yu snapped back to reality.
"Ah? What’s the matter?"
"Husband, what were you daydreaming about? Just now, that old man... was there a problem?"
Naturally, there was a problem.
A mere passerby having such a high blood volume, he’s either the elder Lao Deng, or... the Blood Demon.
Fang Yu withdrew his gaze.
"Possibly just a demon, or... no, should be just a demon."
Ding Hui blinked, placing her hand on Fang Yu’s hand.
Her voice resonated directly in Fang Yu’s mind.
"Husband, don’t meddle in others’ affairs."
Fang Yu naturally understood.
After so many incidents in Da Liang City, he knew to restrain himself somewhat.
Taking a seat with Ding Hui, Fang Yu called over the waiter, ordering some tea and snacks.
Listening to the people around discussing the Song Family massacre, Fang Yu merely furrowed his brows slightly, not thinking much of it.
Since escaping the Maze Illusion Realm, his blood volume had already returned to the normal threshold of 180,000.
Just as he thought, the maximum life value reduction in the Illusion Realm was temporary, with strength returning after leaving the realm.
Even so, that Illusion Realm still left one feeling astonished.
The true strength of the Illusion Fox Demon had an unfathomable quality.
While Fang Yu pondered these things, Lao Song was heading straight home as he left downstairs.
From his initial brisk walk, progressing to jogging, then racing, Lao Song felt very anxious.
Amid the puzzled gazes of passersby, Lao Song ran all the way home.
Closing the door behind him, his heart couldn’t stop pounding.
"Wife! Wife come out quickly! The Lu Family, everyone has been killed, we might already be exposed..."
Lao Song’s voice gradually softened.
Because he realized something.
Home was too quiet.
Even if just mimicking that old woman’s former habits, his fellow demon clan would normally display that shrewish demeanor to the fullest.
And yet, now...
Unusual, unexplained!
Without even a half-second’s hesitation, Lao Song instantly turned around and abruptly pushed open the door he had just closed!
But at the next moment...
Buzz!!!
A cold gleam suddenly appeared right outside the door! As if it had been waiting for a long time!
"Captain Di?!"
Lao Song’s body froze, daring not to move.
Because the sword edge was already placed against his throat.
In that instant, Lao Song seemed to revert back to his usual hunched, obsequious old man appearance, putting on a fawning smile.
"Captain Di, what, what is this about? This little old man hasn’t committed any offense, right?"
Captain Di, holding the sword, forced Lao Song back step by step into the house.
"Old Song, you say you haven’t committed any offense, does that mean you haven’t? In these matters, who sets the rules, haven’t you understood after all these years?"
In small places, not involving Family matters, the Foolish Underworld is the sky!
If the sky wants you to die, you have no choice but to die!
So when Lao Song still attempted to argue...
Slash!!
The sword edge had already cut through Lao Song’s neck.
In that instant of shock, as blood sprayed from his neck, Lao Song’s expression visibly twisted into a snarl.
Then came the...
Boom!!
Blood Mist, exploded!
In the Blood Mist, shadow contours began to expand.
Smash!!
A beast-like claw emerged from the Blood Mist, seizing Captain Di’s neck!
"You truly are?!"
Captain Di hadn’t finished speaking when he immediately felt a massive pressure, almost ready to crush his body, compress him completely!
