Chapter 79
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Fu Xuezhou didn’t expect that there would actually be anomalies secretly watching them.
The anomalies enjoyed scenes of blood and gore, although such coercion wasn’t their favorite method of killing, it excited them more than ordinary killings.
Malicious and obscene words reflected in the eyes of the two. Fu Xuezhou’s eyes turned cold for a moment, but as he turned to look at the red words on the wall, a gust of wind attacked from behind. Lou Yan grabbed Fu Xuezhou’s neck tightly from behind with the spinal whip!
In the next instant, Lou Yan felt a sharp pain coursing through his body again like an electric shock.
“Ugh…” Lou Yan grunted, his eyes gleaming with ferocity as he forcibly held onto the spinal whip in his hands, despite the excruciating pain coursing through his body. All strength in his body quickly dissipated, his black hair dampened with sweat sticking tightly to his forehead. Lou Yan’s arms trembled involuntarily, even though he exerted all his strength to strangle Fu Xuezhou, his body clearly felt his arm strength diminishing.
Fu Xuezhou lifted his slender neck, a smirk playing on his lips as he reached out and grabbed the spinal whip on his neck, pulling it out bit by bit.
D*mn it…
Lou Yan’s expression darkened as he watched the crimson blood flow from Fu Xuezhou’s neck wound, smelling the sweet yet bloody scent of the blood. Driven by the increasingly scorching ghost marriage contract or the stirring of anger in his heart, Lou Yan surged forward viciously, opening his mouth and biting into the flesh on Fu Xuezhou’s neck.
Fu Xuezhou’s hand paused, pushing Lou Yan’s head away from his neck.
Lou Yan paid no attention, wishing to bite Fu Xuezhou to death directly. His teeth pierced through the flesh, the taste of blood flooding into Lou Yan’s mouth. But his strength quickly waned, even his teeth lost the strength to continue biting. Lou Yan could barely move his fingers, leaning weakly against Fu Xuezhou’s back, his lips touching Fu Xuezhou’s neck, his breath hot. Lou Yan blinked away sweat with difficulty, staring straight at Fu Xuezhou’s carotid artery, wanting to bite again.
Fu Xuezhou’s breath sank.
There was something floating up and sinking down in his eyes. He closed his eyes, a few strands of silver hair falling on his neck, dyed red with blood. The ghost marriage contract on his back felt restless, and Fu Xuezhou remained motionless for more than ten seconds before slowly opening his eyes.
With a slight movement of his body, Lou Yan fell backward and leaned against the wall, his arms hanging weakly, only a pair of eyes staring darkly at Fu Xuezhou.
The next second, a black coat was thrown over Lou Yan.
Fu Xuezhou, wearing a black shirt, stood up and walked to the wall. He looked at the blood words and directly removed one of his black gloves, reaching out to touch the wall.
This pale hand easily pierced through the smooth and hard wall like tofu, causing debris to fall and cracks to spread rapidly from the part where his hand was.
“Snooping?” Fu Xuezhou said coldly.
The bloody words on the wall twisted and lost their shape, turning into a slippery mess of blood that slid down the wall.
After dealing with these red words, when Fu Xuezhou turned around, he found that Lou Yan, who had just been sitting or lying there, had sneaked away while he was busy.
His black uniform coat was disdainfully thrown on the ground by Lou Yan—even though Lou Yan was disheveled, he was unwilling to use Fu Xuezhou’s clothes to cover up his sorry state.
Extreme pride and self-esteem seemed to be ingrained in Lou Yan’s bones. No matter who it was or what they did, they couldn’t make him bow his head in surrender.
Fu Xuezhou lowered his eyes and stared at his coat for a while before casually unbuttoning two buttons on the collar. Then, he forcefully pulled out his hand from the wall.
Cracks once again spread from the hollow where his hand was pulled out, and with a few faint “crack” sounds, the towering wall collapsed in front of Fu Xuezhou.
Debris and wall dust fell from the sky, and Fu Xuezhou picked up his coat, choosing a direction to leave.
Lou Yan stumbled under the cover of the wall, changing his route and continuing towards the passage leading to the second floor.
His strength had not fully recovered, but Lou Yan didn’t know when Fu Xuezhou might catch up, and there was clearly no time for him to rest now.
Lou Yan breathed out, feeling that the burning sensation from the ghost marriage contract on his back was somewhat abnormal. He couldn’t see the color of his own face, but he could see a faint redness on his arm when he raised it.
This burning sensation, unlike the burning sensation after using “Time Reversal,” was not painful but uncomfortable. It was like simmering in warm water, slowly rising from the soul to the flesh.
It wasn’t intense, but it made one feel restless and uneasy.
Lou Yan walked slowly and cautiously. Before long, he suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood coming from ahead.
“Crisis Perception” did not warn of any danger ahead, so Lou Yan walked past without worry. But as he approached, he saw a muscular hunter holding an axe just killing someone.
The hunter’s mask on his face bore an exaggerated grin, having taken the lives of countless people, his clothes and mask splattered with several layers of blood. The burly man turned his head at the sound, only to see Lou Yan, disheveled and with a cold expression.
In the eyes of the burly man, there was a crazed madness, his thick and perverted gaze scanning Lou Yan up and down, lingering on his face, the beautiful curves of his waist, and his long legs, nauseatingly smirking. He lifted his axe and approached Lou Yan, saying, “Tired of killing, and now comes someone who can make me happy. Kid, you’re quite good-looking. If you make me feel good, I might consider letting you go.”
Lou Yan felt nauseous, wanting to vomit. He looked at the man expressionlessly, recalling what Lin You had told him earlier, that this hunter was a major drug trafficker.
It seemed that the hunter’s strength was not enough to threaten Lou Yan, so “Crisis Perception” did not sound the alarm. Under normal circumstances, Lou Yan could easily kill this drug dealer. But at this moment, he had just been punished by Fu Xuezhou after being attacked, his strength had not fully recovered, and there was also the suppression of his identity… Lou Yan’s eyes dimmed, and he tightened his grip on the spinal whip in his hand.
If this drug dealer dared to lay a hand on him, even if he had to suffer another setback, he would make this trash regret it.
Standing tall and handsome, Lou Yan stood upright, with a frown on his brow, his eyes cold and disgusted. The stark contrast between his aristocratic demeanor and his tattered clothes was striking, but when these two extremes coexisted in one person, the contrast was simply appetizing.
The desire in the drug dealer’s eyes became more and more obvious. He approached Lou Yan eagerly, but just as he was about to reach Lou Yan, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked warily behind Lou Yan.
Fu Xuezhou, with silver hair, appeared there at some point, staring at the drug dealer who was trying to touch Lou Yan’s hand.
The drug dealer felt a chill running down his spine as he was stared at by Fu Xuezhou’s pitch-black eyes. He pretended to be fierce and warned, “This is my prey, you better get lost!”
Fu Xuezhou approached steadily, causing the drug dealer to feel a sense of fear. Fu Xuezhou said, “Your prey?”
The drug dealer’s heart raced with the sound of his footsteps, appearing much stronger than the silver-haired pretty boy, but he was completely subdued by the other’s aura. The drug dealer’s face beneath the mask shifted between shades of blue and black, but he refused to let go of Lou Yan, such a high-quality prey. He also refused to be outdone by a pretty boy, so he threatened more fiercely, “Since we’re both hunters, I warn you to get lost! Don’t interfere with my affairs! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you!”
With that, he raised the axe in his hand, stained with blood, and waved it in the air.
Fu Xuezhou didn’t care at all about his threats. He walked steadily up to the drug dealer. The drug dealer felt a surge of fear as Fu Xuezhou’s pitch-black eyes met his own. Fu Xuezhou said, “Whose prey?”
The drug dealer felt a sudden pain in his eyes, and darkness enveloped his vision. His mask shattered into pieces and fell from his face. He cried out in pain, covering his eyes, “Ah! Yours! He’s yours! He’s your prey!!! I won’t compete with you anymore. I’m leaving. He’s your prey!!!”
Fu Xuezhou chuckled and took the axe from the drug dealer’s hand. The drug dealer felt something and stumbled back two steps in terror into the darkness. He shouted towards Fu Xuezhou, “You can’t kill me! We are both hunters, how can you kill a hunter for the sake of a prisoner?! I was wrong, big brother, I was really wrong, spare me, we are all hunters, big brother!”
But as soon as he finished speaking, the drug dealer felt a tearing pain in his chest. His mouth opened wide in disbelief and resentment as he died in the darkness.
Meanwhile, when Fu Xuezhou confronted the drug dealer, Lou Yan, who had regained some strength, had quietly left.
Lou Yan didn’t care whether Fu Xuezhou would kill the drug dealer or not, but if Fu Xuezhou did kill another hunter, he would definitely applaud and be happy to see that situation.
Prisoners couldn’t kill hunters, so every hunter less was a good thing for them.
Next, Lou Yan saw several bodies that had died miserably by the roadside. Lou Yan found a relatively clean gray prisoner’s uniform from one of the bodies and put it on himself, finally finding the passage to the second floor.
This passage was a dark spiral staircase.
Lou Yan didn’t put away the spinal whip. He calmly walked into the staircase and found that the staircase seemed a bit unusual.
He walked for three whole floors without reaching the second floor. Since the staircase looked safe, Lou Yan thought he might see many people resting here to recover their mental strength, but surprisingly, he only saw a few people sitting here resting. Most of them had blank faces, lowered their heads, and seemed lost in thought. Even when Lou Yan passed by them, they didn’t even look up.
After walking half a floor further, Lou Yan saw Li Sanxin and Lin You resting in the corner.
Li Sanxin and Lin You, who were closely watching every person who came up, also noticed him immediately. The two of them quickly stood up and walked over, Li Sanxin heaving a sigh of relief. His voice was full of joy and gratitude, “Yanzi, you finally came!”
