Chapter 910 - Soul Devourer (2/2)

“Even if they can only gang up against one man, that’s still great merit as long as they can bring down some of them!” said Li Qiang hurriedly, “Besides, I must take you to hide somewhere right away. If there are too many people with us, we’ll be easily exposed even if we’re hiding.”

Boss Huang’s lips squirmed a few times and he immediately shouted, “All of you, go there and help Boss Song. Anyone of you who can injure those people, I’ll reward you a million yuan. 2 million yuan for whoever can kill one of them. Hurry up!”

People do say that there will always be one who is brave enough to take the risks if the rewards are generous enough.

These rabbles were henchmen—gangsters raised by Boss Huang himself. They usually help Boss Huang to deal with some unspeakable shady deals, which has earned them tens of thousand yuan each time. It was not a small amount of money in and of itself, but when they heard Boss Huang’s promise, their eyes shined brightly. Although they realized that they were far from being a match for those people, they were actually smart enough to gang up against one of them.

The number of men under Song Donglai was many times more than those of the Lian Family’s. Although the gap of strength between them and the Lian Family’s people was quite big, the number of people was indeed able to make up for the differences in individual combat prowess, albeit barely. More than 20 hooligans divided into three groups and ganged up on the three experts from the Lian Family quickly.

Pew, pew, pew…

With a fluctuation in the air, Xiao Ya soundlessly appeared next to the scar-faced big man, while his sharp dagger pierced the latter’s stomach like a venomous snake. After pulling out the dagger, he moved lightning fast and kill the other three rabbles.

“Gunshots?!”

Amid the chaotic scene of battle, the experts of Lian Family who had the upper hand and were dominating the battle had their complexions slightly changed. They could clearly hear the faint gunshots, while some of them who were proficient in firearms were aware that it was not coming from ordinary pistols, but from a very powerful sniper rifle.

“Xiao Ya! Deal with those snipers!” shouted Lian Bai after his saber cleaved down the enemy and turned to glance around.

“CRUOR PYTHON!”

Ao Wei, who had yet to make an appearance on the stage, appeared from the direction of the lakelet. Behind him were strong stocky men lifting a big steel cage two meters in width and height, dashing into the fray. As they were closing on the fighting crowd, Ao Wei ferociously roared and cleaved the chain outside the steel cage and opened its door.

Whoosh!

A more than three meters long blood-colored Cruor Python violently raged and slithered out of the cage. Its mouth opened, exhibiting its chilling, cold fangs at the moment it flashed behind a member of the Lian Family and instantly bit on the left side of his neck.

Aaaaargh….

A horrifying and shrill scream came from the man. The Cruor Python didn’t stay still and flung toward the other member of the Lians.

“Fucking asshole!”

The Lian Family’s ancestor, Lian Wentian, who had just killed several men under Song Donglai, noticed the bloody-colored python who had just appeared and already killed two of his family members. He immediately wielded a longsword and hurled lightning fast towards the Cruor Python. He had encountered such a ferocious ominous beast before, so he had no fear in facing it.

The battle between the Cruor Python and Lin Wentian caused the spot to be devoid from anyone else. The anaconda-like Cruor Python was far more powerful than all of the fierce beasts Lin Wentian had killed before. At the moment when a man and a beast were deadlocked in their fight, Lian Wenxin, who had killed a dozen people, finally opened the dark ink bottle in his hand and instantly threw it into the air.

“Soul Guardian—DEVOUR!”

Lian Wenxin rose up into the air and, as his roar echoed around, the black ink bottle opened and unleashed a murky-grayish weapon all of a sudden. At the same time, the Nine Fetuses of Hundred Ghosts Streamer the size of a palm instantly appeared from the black bottle, while the gushing eddy that came out with it grew bigger and stronger.

Halfway up the hill, Tang Xiu’s complexion suddenly changed greatly. His pupils contracted, and disbelief filled them as he could sense the thick death Qi repeatedly surging out at the moment the Nine Fetuses of Hundred Ghosts Streamer unleashed into the air.

“The Ghost race tool?”

He easily recognized this Nine Fetuses of a Hundred Ghosts Streamer, since it radiated a very powerful ghosts’ aura containing the grief of the souls within it.

“What is this Ghost device?” asked Xue Yu confused.

Tang Xiu’s eyes were flickering, containing some killing intent within them. He replied with a heavy voice, “It’s a device that uses human souls—the souls of those who have been inhumanely tortured with countless cruel and brutal methods. Their souls then turn into wraiths before they get absorbed into this ghost device, which then forms it into a powerful weapon. This Ghost Streamer has at least devoured several hundred human souls, all of them which were tortured inhumanely before they got murdered, making their souls still even be tormented now.”

“That evil?!!” Xue Yu exclaimed, “Isn’t that the likes of the demon in the legends?”

“True. There’s not much of a difference between Ghost and Demonic tools, to begin with.” Tang Xiu nodded and said, “Both are just two forms of power, but they are a similarly diabolical evil object. This Lian Family is under the Occult Sect on the surface. I didn’t expect that some of them have refined such a Ghost device. This makes it obvious that this family is wicked!”

“So, what should we do?” asked Xue Yu quickly.

“What should we do? Hmph… What other than making sure whether this Ghost device was made or was just refined by the Lian Family?” snorted Tang Xiu coldly. “If they are the ones who did that, or by something else… hmph… then they are damned! All the deceased souls, even the souls of the Lian Family’s deceased members, all must have been swallowed inside that Ghost device!”

After he said that, Tang Xiu’s figure instantly flew down.
