Liu Jiyun stared at the familiar face. Although he hadn't personally killed anyone in Ningcheng, he had been in charge of all the logistics.
This included tracking down the locations of Zhang Yi and his group.
Just as he was about to speak, Liu Qi tilted his head, the veins on his forehead bulging. “Where did a piece of trash like you crawl out from? You want to kill my whole family? I'll kill you right now!”
An afterimage overlapped with his physical form.
Whoosh!
The next instant, an afterimage appeared in front of Zhang Yi, and a snarling Liu Qi swapped places with it. “Die, you piece of trash!”
His figure blurred with overlapping afterimages as countless fists rained down toward Zhang Yi's head. If all of these punches connected, even steel would warp and shatter.
However, Zhang Yi didn't even look at him. Behind Zhang Yi, a long-haired young man wearing glasses and sporting a gloomy expression materialized.
From the neck down, the young man's body was a flesh-colored intestine several meters long and dozens of centimeters thick.
It opened its mouth, and an invisible ripple instantly enveloped both itself and Zhang Yi.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the next second, Liu Qi unleashed over a hundred punches, all of them slamming into an invisible barrier five centimeters in front of Zhang Yi.
The barrier rippled violently under the onslaught, but it clearly wasn't going to break anytime soon.
Zhang Yi looked at Liu Qi and said coldly, “Nice speed. Too bad only two of you can actually fight. You'd better stay right here!”
Behind Zhang Yi, the glasses-wearing young man's face flushed red. Blocking so many attacks was still quite a strain on him.
“Ah! Kid, how dare you look down on the two of us!” a roar echoed from the side as the conjoined bull-bodied monster bellowed.
It reared its front hooves high and kicked toward Liu Qi. The instant before the kick connected, Liu Qi vanished, reappearing further away.
He looked annoyed. “Uncle Jiyun, let's take care of these trash first. We can team up to deal with that piece of garbage afterward!”
Nearby, a monster with over a dozen arms saw Liu Qi appear.
It lunged toward Liu Qi, its face contorted with rage. “Heretics! Anyone who dares block the Earth Mother's progress must be destroyed!”
However, after only a few steps, a two-meter-tall Night Slave rushed out from beside it.
This Night Slave held a 1.5-meter-long hammer with a 30-centimeter head. His muscles bulged as he swung it violently at the monster.
Bang!
Caught off guard, the multi-armed monster took the full force of the hammer blow. The immense power sent it flying four or five meters before crashing to the ground.
The moment it fell, the surrounding Night Slaves immediately swarmed it, stabbing at its eyes and neck with their weapons.
Splat!
“Ah!” A short spear pierced its eye, and the multi-armed monster shrieked, trying to fight back.
However, the surrounding Night Slaves immediately pinned its arms. Although it could easily crush these Night Slaves in a one-on-one fight, with each Night Slave pinning one of its arms, it couldn't break free immediately.
Crack!
The Night Slave holding the short spear exerted his strength, unleashing nearly two tons of force to pierce through the eye and stab directly into its brain.
The multi-armed monster, which had still been struggling, instantly went limp.
However, in the process of killing this monster, three Night Slaves also had their heads crushed and collapsed.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Seeing Liu Qi flash away, the conjoined bull-bodied monster charged violently toward him.
Along the way, any Night Slaves blocking its path were sent flying.
Splat!
Clang!
The surrounding chaotic battle grew increasingly fierce. Inside the subway station, the slaughter between the Night Slaves and the monsters showed no signs of stopping.
Neither side paid any attention to Xiao Qi and Bai Yuwen. In their eyes, the two were already lambs to the slaughter. Now, it was just a matter of who won to claim the three Lord of Evil items.
Bai Yuwen stared solemnly at the slaughtering monsters. “Before I got the mask, I thought this was just an ordinary world. But once I got it, the number of supernatural entities I've seen has already reached double digits.”
“You're still in the mood to say that? We need to figure out how to survive!” Xiao Qi paced around in a panic.
If it weren't for the Grisly Carriage mission, his knees would have already buckled.
The surrounding monsters and Night Slaves intentionally kept their distance from the two during their fight, forming a three-meter-wide circle around them.
Amidst the chaotic battle, Liu Qi's figure constantly flashed, specifically appearing behind the conjoined pair and slamming his fists violently into the back of their heads.
Bang!
With a single punch, the man on the left's head jerked forward, his eyes bulging, his face contorted in pain.
The man on the right looked furious. His arm elongated as he swung it wildly. “Just let me catch you!”
Whoosh!
Before the arm could even get close, Liu Qi vanished, reappearing on the right man's side.
He sneered, “And you think you can catch me?”
He thrust his left fist forward, and countless afterimages appeared in front of him, striking the man's face simultaneously.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With a single punch landing, dozens of muffled thuds echoed in rapid succession within half a second.
“Ah!” Even though the conjoined bull-bodied monster had thick skin and tough flesh, it couldn't withstand such high-frequency attacks in a short span. The intense pain made it shriek.
On the other side, Liu Jiyun walked calmly toward Zhang Yi with his hands behind his back. “Although I don't know how you survived or how you became like this, since our Liu family could deal with you once, we can deal with you a second time.”
At the entrance of the passageway, vertical cracks split open from Zhang Yi's nose upward.
Gurgle!
At least thirteen yellow eyeballs appeared in a dense cluster. The moment they emerged, they spun wildly before all stopping to stare at Liu Jiyun.
Zhang Yi stepped out of the passageway, his tone ice-cold. “Then let's see how you deal with me. The Earth Mother has granted me new life. This battle will be my chance to prove my worth!”
He extended both hands, and a half-meter-wide slit ripped open on his back, tearing through his clothes.
The slit opened, revealing black, fleshy folds inside.
The glasses-wearing young man behind him suddenly rushed toward the opening, pushing his head along with his several-meter-long lower body into Zhang Yi's back.
Zhang Yi's belly rapidly bloated to four or five times its original size. Once the young man had completely entered his body, the slit on his back sealed shut.
One of Zhang Yi's thirteen eyes turned deathly pale, and his belly quickly deflated.
Whoosh!
While he was devouring the glasses-wearing young man, two Night Slaves suddenly rushed over, thrusting military bayonets toward Zhang Yi.
When they got within a meter, Zhang Yi gave a slight wave of his left hand.
A translucent barrier suddenly materialized in front of him, slamming into the two Night Slaves.
Bang! Crack!
The barrier sent the two Night Slaves flying backward, the sound of fracturing bones echoing from their bodies in midair.
Sshhh!
The sound of shifting sand echoed as the ground beneath Liu Jiyun's feet turned into sand. He stared at Zhang Yi, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
The sand beneath his feet rushed toward Zhang Yi, shaping into a meter-long blade of sand as it neared, slashing toward his head.
Bang!
The sand blade struck the translucent barrier, causing it to ripple violently and forcing Zhang Yi's forward steps to a halt.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sand blade hacked furiously at the barrier, sending out a continuous barrage of loud crashes.
Zhang Yi stared at the violently rippling barrier. It seems having just one ability is still not enough.
The Earth Mother hadn't directly granted him immense power. Instead, she had given him a devouring physique that could fuse various abilities.
He turned to look seven or eight meters away at the entirely white monster that had been the first to enter the subway station.
As soon as he looked at it, the monster turned and quickly rushed toward him.
Zhang Yi's voice was calm. “Since one is not enough to fight you, then I'll use two. If two aren't enough, then three.”
“Hmph!” Liu Jiyun snorted coldly, no longer holding back.
A massive amount of sand erupted from his body, instantly filling the surrounding space of several meters. A Night Slave who drew too close was accidentally touched by the sand.
His body stiffened, and his flesh withered at a visible rate.
Rumble!
The sand violently surged toward Zhang Yi like a flood. Along the way, it instantly swallowed a multi-legged spider monster. The monster's body quickly withered, leaving it with absolutely no power to resist.
Rumble!
The torrent of sand, several meters thick, slammed violently into the barrier. The barrier rippled intensely, looking as if it could only hold out for two seconds at most.
But for Zhang Yi, this was already enough. His side split open toward the white monster.
“Roar!” The rushing monster bellowed. When it was two meters away from Zhang Yi, it suddenly pounced into the air, dodging the oncoming torrent of sand.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, an afterimage materialized out of thin air a meter above it, quickly solidifying.
Liu Qi's crazed face appeared, and he roared, “Do you really think everyone else is an idiot?!”
His right leg, which had already been building up power, blurred into an afterimage. Under Zhang Yi's shocked gaze as he turned his head, Liu Qi kicked the pouncing white monster squarely in the head.
Bang!
A white shockwave exploded from the white monster's head, and it was instantly sent flying back toward the subway train behind it.
Rumble!
At that moment, the barrier shattered, and a massive amount of sand surged toward Zhang Yi.
Within the sand, Liu Jiyun's upper body emerged.
With a savage expression, he rode the torrent of sand toward Zhang Yi. “Zhang Yi! If you want to kill my whole family, you're not qualified!”
The coordinated attack of the uncle and nephew caught Zhang Yi completely off guard. His pupils contracted violently. Wasn't that kid being pinned down by the bull demon?!
He quickly looked into the distance, only to see the bull demon—originally one of his strongest combatants—kneeling on all fours.
Its head, harder than steel, had been bludgeoned into a hollow depression, with brains and blood spurting from its nose.
“Did you really think that brainless brute could pin me down? The only reason it could even trade blows with me was because I let it. It was just to lower your guard!” Liu Qi sneered mockingly.
By now, the sand had already made contact with Zhang Yi's body, and his figure was rapidly withering.
Bang!
Suddenly, the sand exploded as a meter-wide hand erupted from the ground in front of Zhang Yi, blocking the sand.
Zhang Yi turned and rushed toward Xiao Qi and Bai Yuwen, who were a dozen meters away.
This was his first time fighting the two members of the Liu family. Lacking understanding of their abilities, he had been caught completely off guard.
Next time. Just wait until next time, and I'll deal with you! Zhang Yi clenched his fists.
Barriers materialized in front of him, knocking away any approaching Night Slaves.
Rumble!
Behind him, the ground exploded as a nearly ten-meter-tall, completely naked giant crawled out from the earth.
“Roar!” Just as it emerged, its entire body was enveloped by a massive amount of sand, pinning it to the ground. Unable to move, its flesh rapidly began to wither.
The entire subway station was split in half by Liu Jiyun's sand. Amidst this, the Night Slaves swarmed and slaughtered the monsters Zhang Yi had brought.
Indeed, it was a slaughter.
The number of these monsters was simply too small. If they were facing hundreds of ordinary humans, it would be a massacre. But against hundreds of Night Slaves who could unleash tons of force at any moment, they could only be slaughtered.
On an exit sign hanging from the subway ceiling, a crow had appeared at some point.
It had witnessed the entire clash between the two sides, and now it was staring at the fleeing Zhang Yi.
There is no misfortune on him. Is it because of the Earth Mother he spoke of? The crow watched silently.
The slaughter between these people was ultimately in vain. Outside the subway station, a dense flock of crows circled above.
Bang!
A barrier sent Xiao Qi flying. Zhang Yi looked at Bai Yuwen and extended a hand. “Take off the mask and trench coat!”
Hummm!
Two barriers materialized around Bai Yuwen, closing in on him from both sides. Bai Yuwen immediately covered his head with his hands.
Bang! The barriers squeezed him tightly. The intense pain turned his eyes bloodshot, and he couldn't help but growl, “Ahhh!!!”
Behind Zhang Yi, Liu Qi rushed forward. “Is that yours to take? How dare you snatch it!”
Boom!
Just as he was about to deal with Zhang Yi, a loud crash echoed from the subway tracks.
Buck, covered in black blood after being hit by the train, strode out. His face was filled with rage, black veins bulging. “Since when did my prey become yours to fight over?!”
He had clearly been the first to make a move, yet he had done nothing but take beatings. Now, after finally waiting until his targets were helpless, his items were being snatched away by others.
Seeing Buck appear, Liu Qi couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise.
This guy had been hit by his car and then run over by a train, yet he could still move. He was incredibly resilient.
Blood poured uncontrollably from beneath Bai Yuwen's mask. This time, even the mask wasn't absorbing his blood.
Looking at the three approaching figures, his despair gave way to rage. “Run! I'll hold them off here!!!”
Sizzle!
The trench coat, which hadn't responded due to his lack of physical strength, suddenly emitted a brilliant white light. He was squeezing out his own life force to power the coat.
Even if he died, he wouldn't let those people have it easy.
A few meters away, Xiao Qi, bruised and swollen on the ground, gritted his teeth at Bai Yuwen's words. “I never expected a bastard like you to tell me to run at a time like this!”
Bai Yuwen's figure grew brighter and brighter, and he was about to be completely enveloped in white light.
“Trying to charge up? Laughable!” Liu Qi instantly appeared in front of him.
Choking him with one hand, he unleashed hundreds of rapid punches with his other hand into Bai Yuwen's abdomen in a single second.
Under the high-frequency onslaught, the trench coat automatically blocked, directly draining Bai Yuwen's charged energy and causing the white light to vanish.
Leaving only a thoroughly despondent Bai Yuwen.
Liu Qi tightened his grip, while the rushing Buck was blocked by a stream of quicksand.
Just as Liu Qi was about to choke Bai Yuwen to death.
“Everyone, stop!!!” a roar echoed from behind.
Liu Qi, Zhang Yi, and Liu Jiyun subconsciously turned toward the source of the voice.
They saw the bruised and battered Xiao Qi standing up. His right index finger was extended and placed against his face in a pose resembling Xiang Zuo's signature pose, while his left hand was placed over his crotch.
Under everyone's bewildered gazes, his hips began to sway, and his upper body followed in a slow groove.
Looking like a wriggling maggot, his hands slowly curved and rested on either side of his abdomen, bobbing up and down with the swaying of his body.
“Mung, mung, mung, mung, mung... untz, untz, untz...” Strange music noises came from his mouth.
He spun around, turning his back to the crowd, flipped up the back of his suit jacket, and shook his butt at them.
Under the crowd's even more bewildered gazes, he spun back around, accelerating the sway of his hips and hands, his face contorted into a grimace of pain as he tilted it left and right.
Embarrassing. It was absolutely humiliating, but this was the only slow dance he knew, which he had seen on short video apps.
“Hahaha! Are you a clown?!” Liu Qi couldn't help but burst into laughter at such a pathetic display.
Zhang Yi stared at Xiao Qi as he performed this incomprehensible slow dance. Confusion filled his thirteen eyes. What on earth is he doing?
With a casual wave of his hand, a translucent barrier slapped toward Xiao Qi.
However, the barrier—which should have easily sent Xiao Qi flying—felt as though it had slammed into a massive mountain, failing to budge him even a single millimeter.
At the same time, a prompt that only Xiao Qi could see appeared in his vision.
This dance has granted 90% damage reduction!
