Chapter 917 'Killing'

The sounds of battle cries and screams still mingled from the battlefield below.

However, in Fang Yu's view, the situation is still within a controllable range.

Although Diao Xiaohui seemed to be driven to the brink of despair and was on the verge of collapse, Fang Yu knew that she could hold on for a while longer.

That's just right.

It would allow Diao Xiaohui to see reality clearly on the verge of life and death, and understand the price of reckless behavior. It would also allow her to vent the overwhelming resentment and tyranny ignited in her heart by Song Zhenrong's severed finger on the group of attackers.

To prevent her from harboring resentment and causing further trouble in the future.

"I've heard," Fang Yu said again as he turned his gaze away from the battlefield below.

His voice seemed to possess a strange penetrating power, ignoring the wind on the roof and the noise below, clearly reaching Xiang Yu and Captain Feng's ears as if it were ringing directly in their minds.

"This Captain Feng...holds a rather high position in the Foolish Underworld?"

Whether it is a person of noble status or a person of deep cunning, such as Xiangyu.

It was Captain Feng, who was powerful and had always been cold and aloof.

At this moment, everyone was silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

The unfathomable strength displayed by the mysterious man beside them, as well as the suffocating aura that seemed to gaze into the abyss, were far beyond their ability to contend with!
That is an absolute suppression at the level of life!
Like an ant facing a dragon!

Just moments ago, Xiang Yu had been making solemn vows to Captain Feng and painting a bright future for himself. Now, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his clothes were soaked through.

He kept his head down, his eyes closed, seemingly lost in thought, even his breathing deliberately slowed down, as if afraid of attracting attention, let alone responding rashly.

Only Captain Feng endured the immense pressure on his shoulders, as if crushed by a mountain, and the overwhelming fear in his heart.

His Adam's apple bobbed laboriously, his voice tinged with barely concealed tension and dryness, like sandpaper scraping against the skin, as he whispered:

"No... I don't know where you heard this, sir. I am just a lowly captain in the Foolish Underworld. My voice carries little weight, and I'm afraid I can't really be of any help to you."

"Captain Feng, there's no need to be so modest."

The stranger's tone remained calm and even, yet it carried an undeniable authority, as if his words were the absolute truth.

"I just want you to do me a small favor."

Gulu...

Captain Feng clearly heard himself swallowing hard due to extreme nervousness; his throat felt dry and tight.

"...Wh...what kind of help?"

If it weren't for the fact that the fighting here was so loud that it alerted almost half a block and caught his attention, plus the fact that he caught a glimpse of Xiang Yu's conspicuous figure appearing on the roof from afar, he would have been fine.

Based on his usual habits, he would never easily get close to such a troublesome vortex.

As a result, they ran right into such a... unfathomable and wicked star!

"Please disappear for a while."

"what?"

Captain Feng was clearly taken aback, his eyes initially filled with pure incomprehension and bewilderment.

Disappeared? What disappeared? The literal meaning? Or...?

When his sluggish mind finally grasped the terrifying meaning that might be hidden behind those words, his face instantly turned ashen!
"Wha...what disappeared! Do you...are you going to attack me?!"

His voice rose with fear, trembling slightly.

In reality, Captain Feng had no idea what to expect.

Because the power displayed by the other party was too mysterious and too powerful.

The force emanating from the hand resting on his shoulder at that moment was enough to immobilize him, as if he were nailed to the spot.

Not to mention the other unpredictable methods the other party might possess.

Therefore, if the other party really intends to take his life, he probably won't even have a chance to resist.

But what puzzled him was that if the other party really intended to kill, why would they show up and talk to him?
They killed them both silently; given the strength the opponent displayed, it should have been as easy as crushing two ants.

"Captain Feng has misunderstood."

The stranger finally turned his gaze away from the battlefield below.

For the first time, he truly and completely looked at Captain Feng, and a faint, ambiguous smile even appeared on his face.

But he did not offer any further explanation.

Out of the corner of his eye, he was still watching the battle below, as if the blood and fire fighting there was the real focus of his attention.

In reality, although Diao Xiaohui below had previously unleashed astonishing combat power, defeating powerful enemies one after another, now...

Her massive body was trembling slightly and uncontrollably, and each breath became heavy and difficult.

Blood was gushing from multiple deep wounds on his body that exposed bone, and his movements became slower and clumsier than ever before.

Those small fry around her who were initially intimidated by her fierce power and dared not approach.

At this moment, they were like hyenas that had smelled blood, their eyes gleaming with greed and cruelty.

Relying on their superior numbers, they are closing in step by step.

Various weapons, gleaming with a cold light, were pointed at her like venomous snakes, completely cornering her.

The time is almost right.

"Yes, yes, that's definitely not what this gentleman meant, otherwise, how could we two be standing here talking safely?"

Xiang Yu quickly put on a fawning smile, trying to ease the atmosphere, his voice deliberately light.

Just then, the stranger who had been staring at the battlefield below turned his head slightly.

However, his gaze did not fall on Captain Feng, who had just been asking questions, but rather...

He turned to Xiangyu, who was trying to keep his presence to himself!
"And our friends here too."

The stranger's voice remained flat and emotionless, as if he were talking about something utterly ordinary.

"I'm sorry to trouble this friend to 'disappear' for a while as well."

A sudden, loud "buzz" filled Xiang Yu's mind! His mind went completely blank!
A tremendous doubt and a chilling, ominous premonition, like a venomous snake gnawing at his heart, instantly gripped his soul!
His hair stood on end, a chill ran from his tailbone straight up to the top of his head, and his limbs and bones felt as if they were frozen!
The fawning smile on his face froze instantly, as if he had put on a stiff mask!

Behind those calm words lay...death!
The thought had barely arisen, before there wasn't even time to react, not even the instinctive action of begging for mercy or trying to escape!

Om-! ! !
A dazzling golden light, seemingly condensed from the core of the sun, suddenly appeared before their eyes without warning!

The light was not overwhelming; instead, it was condensed into fine threads, as thin as a hairpin, yet it was so fast that it exceeded the limits of visual perception!
Like a golden thread tearing through space!

And it wasn't a simple straight line; it traced a beautiful yet deadly arc through the air! Captain Feng's expression hadn't even fully shifted from astonishment to terror, and his pupils hadn't even fully contracted or dilated with fear—

Swish!Swish!
Two extremely faint, yet incredibly clear, cutting sounds, like snapping strings, rang out.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Captain Feng's gloomy face seemed frozen in astonishment.

The faint trace of terror that had just come to his senses in the depths of his eyes seemed to be paused, frozen in the moment of death.

On his neck, a thin, smooth, golden line suddenly appeared.

Immediately afterwards——

Pfft!Pfft!
As if all their bones had been removed, the two of them suddenly felt dizzy and collapsed onto the cold tiles.

Blood gushed from his neck like a fountain that had been suppressed for a long time.

It hesitated for a moment, then suddenly gushed upwards, scattering two dazzling patches of scarlet blood onto the roof!

However, strangely, their heads were not completely separated from their bodies. There seemed to be extremely fine flesh and fascia connecting them at the neck, maintaining an extremely terrifying "unbroken" state.

The mysterious man flicked his finger, and two jet-black pills emitting a strange medicinal fragrance accurately shot into the mouths of Xiang Yu and Captain Feng.

The pills melted instantly upon entering their mouths, and a strange energy instantly protected their collapsing life force, forcibly keeping them alive until their last breath.

Having done all this, the mysterious man didn't pause at all; like a black lightning bolt, he leaped down into the chaotic battlefield below!
The battle below is also nearing its end.

"Surround it! Don't let it get away!"

"It's dying! It's running out of fuel!"

"Quick! Who will deliver the final blow and claim the credit?"

Diao Xiaohui's vision had become blurry.

The repeated bursts of extreme power and bloody battles had already pushed her body and mind to the brink of collapse.

My body swayed unsteadily, and every step I took felt like walking on cotton.

The enormous wolf head and cat head hung limply, their heavy breathing like that of a broken bellows.

Like sharks smelling blood, the besieging crowd charged forward again with excited shouts, their swords and spears flashing with cold killing intent.

Diao Xiaohui gritted her teeth, letting out a hoarse roar in her throat, wanting to explode again, but she felt as heavy as if her body was filled with lead.

It took all his strength just to maintain his standing posture; his body staggered forward uncontrollably, and he was about to fall completely.

"Now! It's about to fail!!"

Among the attackers, a man wielding a long spear with greedy eyes immediately spotted this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He immediately became so excited that his face turned red, and he let out a wild howl!
He suddenly sprang up like an arrow released from a bow.

With a sharp whistling sound, the spear in his hand pierced straight into Diao Xiaohui's wolf eyes, which had lost their luster due to exhaustion!

In their prime, let alone attacking, these people wouldn't even be able to get within three zhang of Diao Xiaohui before being torn to shreds!

But now, this ferocious monster is already at its last gasp and exhausted, making it the perfect opportunity to reap the rewards and make a name for itself!
This easy achievement would be enough to ensure his livelihood for the rest of his life, not to mention that this monster also killed the captain of the Foolish Underworld!
Capturing or killing him and sending him to the Underworld of Fools would be a tremendous achievement and reward!
Closer! Closer still! The tip of the spear was only inches away from those murky wolf eyes!
The man was so excited that he held his breath, his eyes fixed on the fame and fortune that were within reach!

But at this moment——

Boom! ! !
A terrifying aura, like thunder from the heavens, carrying an overwhelming pressure, suddenly erupted from outside the crowd behind and rapidly approached!
"Get out of here, all of you!!!"

A deafening roar exploded like thunder!

The air exploded!

boom--! ! !
The violent airflow exploded like a powder keg that had been ignited!

An invisible shockwave, accompanied by a visible white blast of air, swept wildly in all directions like a tornado!
All the attackers around, including the man with the long spear who was closest to Diao Xiaohui and was about to succeed, turned pale instantly, as if they had been struck by an invisible giant hammer! They screamed and were swept up by the violent air current without any power to resist.

Like leaves in a storm, they were tossed high into the air, torn and spun by the chaotic air currents!
And where their terrified gazes were focused.

The figure that crashed in with destructive force, like a meteorite.

Without slowing down in the slightest, with an unstoppable momentum, it crashed directly and straight into the crimson wolf-cat that was teetering on the ground in the center!
"That's our prey!!"

"A master! A master has arrived!!"

"Damn it! All our efforts have been in vain!!"

Some roared in anger and resentment, while others cried out in shock at the sudden turn of events.

Only the blood-red wolf-cat Diao Xiaohui, upon seeing that familiar figure charging towards her without regard for anything else, showed an extremely complex and rapidly changing emotion in her wolf eyes and cat eyes.

It was a mixture of astonishment, bewilderment, and a barely perceptible sense of relief!

Finally, as if understanding something, he slowly closed his eyes.

The next instant, under everyone's watchful eyes—

The figure crashed into the massive body of the Blood Wolf Cat like a cannonball!

Bang——! ! !
A dull, heart-stopping bang!
The Blood-Red Wolf Cat's massive body exploded violently on the spot, like a fragile terracotta figurine shattered by a tremendous force!

Blood, flesh, and shredded bones and internal organs rained down like a terrifying downpour!
Amidst the blood and gore, only an extremely exaggerated and shocking half-section of mangled remains remained.

A mixture of sticky, indistinguishable fragments of internal organs lay forlornly in the middle of the street.

As for the powerful figure who smashed the wolf-cat, he had already vanished without a trace in the exploding blood mist.

This dramatic farce finally came to a complete end with this shocking "mutual destruction" scene.

"Dead...dead? Just like that...gone?"

"What...who exactly is that guy?! He's so terrifying! Even our Captain Rope fell into the hands of this demon, and he actually...turned it into mincemeat with a single blow?!"

"Hmph! There are always stronger ones! Your Captain Rope from the Foolish Underworld is nothing special! In this capital city where hidden talents abound, there are many powerful figures you can't even imagine!"

"Exactly! It can only be said that this demon was too rampant and reckless, alerting such a reclusive master to take action. It deserved to die!"

With the biggest problem "resolved," the survivors relaxed and began to discuss among themselves.

How to clean up the mess and handle the aftermath is now a headache for the Foolish Underworld.

The other onlookers also began to disperse.

No one noticed that Fang Yu had actually returned long ago.

In his hand he held a dark red ball of flesh that throbbed slightly like a heart and kept writhing and expanding.

His figure appeared like a ghost beside Captain Feng and Xiang Yu, who were still lying unconscious on the ground.
