Awakening the Phoenix Flow System after the breakup, I'm so happy!

"Bang bang bang!"

The piercing sound of gunfire shattered the deathly silence of the night.

Zhao Hu gripped the pistol tightly with both hands and repeatedly pulled the trigger.

Orange-yellow flames spewed out one after another in the darkness.

Every bullet hit the monster's grayish-white skin.

But there was no scene of blood and gore as I had imagined.

That hairless skin was even more durable than a bulletproof vest.

The bullets only left a few faint white spots, without even scratching the skin.

The powerful impact caused the monster to pause slightly as it lunged forward.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

Zhao Hu cursed loudly, sweat dripping down his face.

The monster was completely enraged.

Its powerful hind legs stomped on the ground, crushing the bluestone slabs to pieces.

His whole body rushed towards Zhao Hu like a cannonball.

Zhao Hu didn't even have time to change the magazine.

He instinctively raised his arm to block.

The monster opened its huge mouth, which was filled with three rows of fangs, and bit Zhao Hu's arm.

"ah--!"

The pig-like screams echoed through the night sky.

Zhao Hu's entire arm, along with his shoulder, was forcibly torn off.

Blood splattered on the faces of several bodyguards nearby.

Those usually arrogant men in black suits were now terrified.

"A monster! This is a man-eating monster!"

"Run! Guns are useless!"

A group of people dropped their batons and pistols and scrambled out of the yard.

The monsters would never let them go.

It moved incredibly fast, catching up with the two bodyguards who were running at the back in no time.

With a swift swing of its claws.

The two living people were cut in half at the waist, their internal organs spilling all over the ground.

A strong stench of blood permeated the courtyard.

Wang Shao Cong fell to the ground, his crotch already soaked.

His elite troops couldn't even last two minutes against this monster.

Watching the monster slowly turn its head, its completely red eyes staring at him.

Wang Shao Cong was so frightened that he scrambled backward.

"Don't kill me! Don't come any closer!"

He cried and screamed as he crawled toward the gate on all fours.

The monster was making that gurgling sound from its throat.

It completely ignored what Wang Shao Cong was shouting.

It slowly walked up to Wang Shao Cong and placed a paw heavily on Wang Shao Cong's back.

"Chen Yang!"

Wang Shao Cong turned his head and shouted at the study door as if he had grasped at the last straw.

"Brother Chen, Brother Yang, please save me!"

"You think you're so tough? Hurry up and kill this monster!"

"If you save me, I'll give you half of the Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce's assets, and I'll never again try to take advantage of Qin Xue!"

Chen Yang stood at the door of the study, protecting Qin Xue behind him.

He stroked his chin and said to Wang Shao Cong very seriously.

"Young Master Wang, it's really not that I don't want to save you."

"Look at this thing, it looks so rugged, even firearms can't penetrate its skin. If I go up there with my bare hands, I'll just be throwing my life away."

"You're quite wealthy, aren't you? Why don't you talk to them and see if they'll accept checks?"

Wang Shao Cong opened his mouth wide in despair.

He didn't even have time to shout out another word.

The monster's massive jaws had already snapped open.

A crisp snapping sound.

Wang Shao Cong's slicked-back hair was completely bitten to pieces.

The headless corpse twitched twice, then fell completely still.

Qin Xue watched this scene unfold from behind Chen Yang.

She covered her mouth tightly with both hands to keep herself from screaming.

My stomach churned violently, and I almost threw up.

The monster killed Wang Shao Cong.

Then slowly turn your head.

Quan Hong's gaze swept past the corpses on the ground and locked onto Chen Yang and Qin Xue.

The fangs, dripping with green slime, snapped together, making a grinding sound that made your teeth ache.

Chen Yang looked at the monster.

This thing was completely outside his comprehension.

The Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica records so many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, but none of them contain this kind of mutated species that is not afraid of bullets.

His internal strength and the "Dragon's Step" are decent for dealing with people.

But Chen Yang wasn't sure he could handle this unknown creature.

The shot hit the monster just now; although it didn't break its defenses, it at least slowed it down.

This shows that physical attacks are not completely useless, they just require greater force.

But now he has Qin Xue as a burden.

If this monster has any other tricks up its sleeve, like spraying venom, Qin Xue would be killed if she got even a little bit near it.

"That Wang Shao Cong is really unlucky, coming to deliver himself to your death in the middle of the night."

Chen Yang spoke to Qin Xue behind him without turning his head.

"Now he's really whetted the monster's appetite."

"Miss Qin, how come you still keep such a pet in your old house? You don't even put it on a leash."

Qin Xue was so frightened that she trembled all over and clung tightly to Chen Yang's clothes.

"I don't know, I've never seen anything like it before."

"Chen Yang, what do we do? It's looking this way."

"What else can we do?"

Chen Yang wrapped his arms around Qin Xue's slender waist and picked her up.

"Of the thirty-six stratagems, running away is the best. This thing is too thick-skinned. I'm not playing with it today."

The voice just fell.

Chen Yang stepped out with the "Dragon Step" and his figure transformed into a blur as he rushed out of the study.

He didn't run towards the gate.

That area is full of corpses and cars brought by Wang Shao Cong, making it easy to get blocked off.

He carried Qin Xue and dashed straight into the primeval forest behind the old house.

The monster roared and charged back in the direction they had left.

Its speed was no slower than Chen Yang's.

Chen Yang carried someone as he moved through the woods.

The branches grazed their faces.

I heard the cracking sound of a large tree being snapped behind me.

The monster charged recklessly, not avoiding any obstacles, and carved a path through the forest.

"Chen Yang, it's catching up!"

Qin Xue nestled in Chen Yang's arms, and in the dim moonlight, she could see the huge black shadow relentlessly pursuing her from behind.

"Don't look at it, close your eyes and hold me tight."

Chen Yang said as he ran.

"I wonder where this thing came from."

"What are Kuroba's gang up on? Is this some kind of Resident Evil?"

Qin Xue buried her head in Chen Yang's chest.

Listening to his strong heartbeat, I miraculously felt less afraid.

"Could it be looking for that bronze goblet?"

"That thing was sent by Black Feather's people. Could it be that it was bait that attracted the monster?"

Qin Xue spoke loudly in Chen Yang's ear.

Chen Yang kept walking.

Using a thick tree branch, they swung in mid-air, creating another distance between them.

"Isn't that cup in your second uncle's hands?"

"Why is this thing chasing after us instead of eating your second uncle? Is it because we're better looking?"

Chen Yang still had the mind to joke.

"What kind of time is this to make jokes like this!"

Qin Xue was both angry and anxious.

"This road leads to the top of the back mountain, but there's no road there; it's a cliff."

Chen Yang chuckled softly.

"The cliff is great, the scenery is beautiful, it's perfect for us to be a pair of lovebirds destined for the same fate."

He carried Qin Xue and ran faster and faster.

The wind was whistling past my ears.

The monster's panting sound was like a persistent, incurable wound that couldn't be shaken off no matter how hard you tried.

The two finally broke out of the woods.

Ahead was a bare, rocky open space.

One more step forward and you'll be at a bottomless abyss.

The moonlight bathed the open space in a stark white light.

Chen Yang put Qin Xue down and pulled her behind him.

The monster rushed out of the woods.

It stopped at the edge of the open space and did not pounce immediately.

It slowly paced around Chen Yang and Qin Xue.

A threatening growl came from his throat.

It appears to be assessing the prey's strength.

Qin Xue looked at the bottomless cliff in front of her.

Then look at the monster closing in.

"Chen Yang, we have no way out."

"What on earth is this thing? It can't be killed by bullets, and I can't escape it either."

Chen Yang stretched his wrists and ankles and stood in front of Qin Xue.

"We ran away earlier because we weren't sure what this thing was all about."

"Since you insist on coming here, then we'll just have to see who can take you down with their arms."

Qin Xue tugged at Chen Yang's sleeve, her voice filled with despair.

"You can't beat it; guns are useless against it."

Chen Yang turned his head and looked at Qin Xue's pale face.

"Why hasn't your Officer Li arrived yet?"

"I've prepared such a huge amount of business for her. If she doesn't come soon, this monster is going to eat us for supper."

Qin Xue was almost brought to tears by his anxiety.

"Distant water can't quench a fire nearby. Even if Captain Li brings his men, ordinary guns won't be able to kill it."

Chen Yang smiled as he looked at the monster, which had already lowered its body and was preparing to attack.

"Miss Qin, it seems we can only be a pair of star-crossed lovers."
