A heretical cultivator in Bureau 749, I'm the fiercest at pulling out tendons and skinning peop

The pig-headed monster neither dodged nor avoided the dregs of soup, letting the dregs and broth pelt its body.

Greasy grime dripped down its thick cheeks.

It didn't care at all, and instead stuck out its scarlet tongue and slowly licked the corner of its mouth.

"Gurgle... Hehe..."

A dull, sticky laugh squeezed out of its chest, carrying a triumphant malice.

"Kid... you started it."

"The rules...don't say the boss can't fight back. An attacker who initiates an attack...is considered to have relinquished their customer status and automatically becomes—"

It deliberately dragged out the sound, uttering two words:

"——Ingredients."

Before the words were even finished, its large, fan-like hand, carrying a foul stench, lashed out towards the spot where Ji Zuodao was standing!

Snapped!

He slapped his palm across the air, making a sonic boom-like sound, but hit nothing.

Only a faint afterimage remained in place.

"Oh."

A clear sneer came from above the pig-headed monster's head.

Ji Zuodao had somehow leaped onto its broad, greasy shoulder, lightly touching the ground with one foot, his movements so light as if weightless.

He looked down at the monster's neck, which stiffened instantly, a knowing smile playing on his lips.

"Consider it food? Coincidentally, that's what I was thinking too."

As he spoke, countless black shadows writhed and roamed wildly beneath Ji Zuodao's exposed skin, as if a living creature was about to burst forth from his body!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft—!"

Hundreds of jet-black, sticky tendons suddenly shot out from his body!

They did not attack in a scattered manner, but instead intertwined and entangled at high speed in the air.

In an instant, it condensed into two enormous hooks as thick as a baby's arm!

"I'll put a collar on you, make sure it's secure, so you don't move around too much during the meal, it's impolite."

Before Ji Zuodao could finish speaking, the two black hooks had already transformed into two afterimages, piercing the pig-headed monster's thick shoulders and back with a piercing sound!

Precise placement—the clavicle!

"Roar—!!!"

The pig-headed monster let out a deafening scream, and its massive body shuddered violently!

Those two hooks not only pierced through the skin and flesh, but also carved deeply into the joints of the bones.

Like the most insidious iron shackles, it instantly locked down the core power-generating structure of its upper limbs and torso!

It struggled desperately, but its thick arms could only sway weakly, like a livestock nailed to a chopping board, unable to make any effective attacking movements.

Ji Zuodao's body trembled slightly, and more fine black tendons extended from his back, like greedy roots, precisely piercing into various parts of the pig-headed monster's body.

"Gurgle...gurgle..."

A series of teeth-grinding sucking sounds rang out.

The monster's plump body shrank at a visible rate.

Beneath Ji Zuodao's exposed skin, a faint, dark red light flowed rapidly back along his large tendons, and he squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

"Hmm... Perfectly cooked, pure resentment, vigorous blood... This is what you call a proper 'main dish'."

"Woof! You brat, stop thinking only about your own pleasure!"

Dog Master, unable to contain himself any longer, pounced on the pig-headed monster's violently heaving belly, his sharp claws flashing with a cold light—

"Sizzle—!"

The thick skin and flesh were easily torn open like rags, revealing the dark red, writhing, steaming internal organs inside.

Without any hesitation, Dog stuck his head inside and began to devour the food, his indistinct mutterings accompanying the chewing sounds:

"Hmm... this heart and liver are trembling, so fresh! The large intestine is chewy enough, I love the chewiness of whole pieces! Glug... damn it, this bitter gall bladder is ruining my mood!"

The pig-headed monster was practically immortal; its bizarre regenerative abilities had become the cruelest instrument of torture.

The parts that had just been sucked dry quickly became fuller, and the gnawed internal organs grew back in the blink of an eye.

It tried to run, but found that its legs were bound by large black tendons at some point, and it could not move an inch.

They could only endure this endless torture and devouring, again and again.

It emitted continuous, piercing, and distorted wails, its obese body convulsing wildly in despair.

In the corner, the four survivors were terrified, huddled together tightly, barely daring to breathe.

"Brother Zhang..."

The young woman's teeth chattered, her voice barely audible, her gaze fixed on the man and dog who were "eating".

"What...what are they? They're even worse than that pig-headed monster..."

"Shut up!"

Zhang Ge's face was ashen, and he covered her mouth tightly, his eyes darting in terror toward Ji Zuodao's direction. His voice was extremely low and pleading.

"Don't make a sound! Don't let them notice us!"

Another man, his voice trembling with tears, looked desperately at the restaurant entrance, which was completely blocked by a blue SUV.

"We can't move...we can't move at all...the traffic is completely blocked...are we...are we going to be...asked to leave?"

"At first... we thought they were here to rescue us..."

The woman's eyes were vacant as she murmured.

"Now it seems we've gone from one tiger's den to another."

Their whispers were drowned out by the pig-headed monster's continuous screams and the chilling sucking and chewing sounds.

Dog-Grandpa lifted his head from the monster's belly, a trembling piece of intestine still dangling from his mouth. He glanced at the four people shaking like leaves in the corner and muttered:

"Tsk, what are you guys arguing about over there? Just wait patiently. Once Dog Master and this kid have figured out how to cook this 'main course,' they might be in a better mood, maybe..."

It paused deliberately, and the pig-headed monster then let out an even louder, mournful cry.

Dog-Grandpa grinned, revealing his gleaming white canines, and gave an extremely terrifying smile.

"Here's some soup for you."

Ji Zuodao slapped Doggy's blood-soaked back of the head with a light but firm touch, making a crisp "smack" sound.

"Tsk, Dog King~"

His tone carried a hint of disappointment and disdain.

"Are you getting cocky? What are you trying to scare them for? The body cameras are recording!"

Ji Zuodao raised his chin, gesturing to the small black device clipped to his chest.

"If he is found guilty of 'unjustifiably threatening the people being rescued,' it will be a minor issue that he will have trouble explaining it to Uncle Liu."

If I cut your monster meat ration allowance or downgrade your "unofficial senior advisor" status, don't come crying to me.

The words "subsidy" and "benefits" seem to possess a magical power.

Dogman froze, his ears snapping up.

Its dog eyes widened instantly, filled with "warning" and "heartache".

"Woof! I almost forgot about that!"

It let out a muffled cry, then quickly turned its neck, trying to turn towards the four trembling figures in the corner.

The dog forced out an expression that it thought was kind, amiable, and endearing, and even tried to wag its blood-stained tail.

"Hey everyone, don't be scared! I was just kidding! We're all regular investigators from Bureau 749, officially employed! It's our duty to be civilized, promote good conduct, and save lives!"

As it spoke, it grinned, trying to give a friendly smile.

Little did they know, its face was covered in blood, and bits of flesh clung to its fangs.

This grin, far from being endearing, resembled that of a cannibalistic beast that had just finished a large meal and was still looking for the next dish.

Especially that smile, against the backdrop of bloodstains, was utterly terrifying.

"Well……"

The young woman closest to him stared intently at Dog's "kind and charming" smile.

A short, sharp sound escaped his throat, his pupils dilated suddenly, his body swayed, and then—

"Gulp."

Her eyes rolled back, and she passed out cleanly and decisively, collapsing limply to the ground.

Seeing this, the other three people nearby trembled even more violently.

The sound of teeth clashing was especially clear amidst the monster's screams and sucking sounds.

The look in his eyes as he stared at Dog was filled with an indescribable fear, as if he were looking at some unspeakable ultimate horror.

The smile on Dog's face froze.

It blinked its blood-foam-covered eyes, looked at the unconscious woman, and a hint of grievance and confusion even appeared on the dog's face in a human-like way.

"Woof? This...this really has nothing to do with me!"

"I...I just wanted to be friendly...Isn't this a scam? It's definitely a scam!"
