Chapter 2669 - 2668: Wraiths Return
The red-clawed monster and the yellow tentacled monster took advantage of the dense night to come together into a deep alley.
They looked around, seemingly waiting for something, but that something hadn’t arrived for a long time.
So, the yellow bug beast and the red bug beast respectively vomited out a large amount of energy from their mouths. An aura not belonging to this world gradually gathered in the deep alley, and then a several-meter-wide energy vortex quietly formed.
Their red eyes shot out with excitement as they prostrated on the ground, adopting a respectful posture.
A pale hand suddenly extended from the energy vortex, the arm reaching forward to grab the yellow bug beast.
The bug beast’s body was almost being distorted by the pulling, but a multitude of tentacles shot out from the bug beast, piercing the ground and firmly anchoring its body.
Using the bug beast’s body, the owner of the pale hand extracted himself from the energy vortex.
Once he pulled out his legs, his full appearance completely revealed itself.
The humanoid body was covered with many black patterns, the skin was entirely pale, and he had black spiral horns on his head, exuding an evil aura.
The pale man glanced at the yellow and red bug beasts on the ground, then spoke in human language: "Why only you two? Where’s Naru?"
The two bug beasts wiggled their tentacles and claws, indicating that they didn’t know.
The pale man cursed, "Damn it, he must have been discovered by people of this world. Without Naru’s power boost, how could the energy vortex be so weak? How could I struggle so much to come out,"
"If Naru is not dead, I’ll definitely give him a harsh lesson!" the pale man said fiercely.
"Hmm?" The demon-like man suddenly became alert, then his arm abruptly extended backward.
"Crunch—"
The demon caught a small creature from the air, instantly squeezing it into paralysis.
He opened his palm to reveal a red insect that had already lost its normal shape.
The demon examined it closely, then chuckled playfully: "Seems like there are remarkable people in this world, able to control these insects to investigate here,"
"Quite a remarkable technique indeed!"
The demon crushed the red insect into pulp, then casually tossed it into a corner:
"No matter, discovery is just discovery, it will take them some time to trace my tracks, enough time for me to do many things."
The two bug beasts leaped up from the ground onto the demon’s back, then extended numerous tentacles and claws, making the already terrifying demon appear even more unsettling.
After a faint smile, the demon’s figure disappeared into the darkness.
...
At the pinnacle of the palace.
Ling Feng sat cross-legged on the ground with closed eyes, also guarding the Royal City and palace.
Little Fei guarded at Ling Feng’s side, receiving information relayed by countless insects.
Little Fei suddenly trembled:
"Master! Something terrible has happened!"
"Hmm?"
"Those few red insects I sent out, one suddenly lost contact with me, and I attuned to them emotionally. I sensed an extremely evil aura,"
"Definitely not something people of this Vermilion Bird Kingdom could possess, like, like..."
"That black bug beast from before!"
Ling Feng opened his eyes sharply, then stood up: "Finally appeared! I’ve been waiting impatiently!"
Ling Feng emitted a powerful force and aura, then jumped off the palace pinnacle.
Little Fei immediately revealed his true form in the air, displaying a massive shell and wings, and steadily caught Ling Feng.
Ling Feng proudly stood on Little Fei’s back, and together, they flew into the Royal City.
...
The demon arrived at the blacksmith’s home, just slain by the red bug beast, then pierced his fingers into the blacksmith’s temple, injecting a gray-white force into the blacksmith’s body.
The dead blacksmith suddenly opened his eyes, which had turned completely gray-white, and he staggered to kneel on the ground respectfully addressing the demon:
"Master!"
The demon smiled slightly, saying nothing, merely bringing the blacksmith along to the pharmacy.
The demon used the same method to "resurrect" the pharmacy owner and his wife next, while the child’s corpse was directly thrown into the crack within his body.
After several horrifying chewing sounds, the demon had completely devoured the child.
The demon nodded in satisfaction, then said to the three kneeling zombies: "Go forth, my corpse demons, go slaughter! Go ignite a terrifying carnival!"
The commanded corpse demons slowly stood, walked to the door, and smashed the wooden door to pieces, hoarsely roaring, they charged into the homes nearby.
Standing on Little Fei’s back, Ling Feng saw the flames suddenly rising in the Royal City and the continuous thick smoke, furrowing his brows.
Little Fei also realized the severity, intuitively accelerating in flight.
Upon reaching the fire site, Ling Feng leaped off Little Fei’s back, directly rushing into the fire scene, then he saw a skeleton-like humanoid creature lunging at a father-son pair.
Ling Feng immediately rushed to pull that corpse demon away, and upon clearly seeing the familiar face, he still slashed the body into bits.
Whether alive or not, Ling Feng couldn’t care anymore; he only knew they had been killed and turned into mindless slaughtering monsters.
He had to eradicate them!
At the moment Ling Feng killed the corpse demon, Jin Gang appeared, punching another blacksmith corpse demon beside him into rubble, saving a child about to be attacked.
Another spirit pet of Ling Feng, Little Chong, partially emerged, spraying a large amount of seawater from the suction cups of its tentacles, extinguishing the flames completely.
Ling Feng turned and dealt the final blow to the female corpse demon, then rescued all the buried residents.
Jin Gang utilized his massive body and strength to remove burning beams and pillars, digging out injured residents buried inside.
Ling Feng looked at the various wounded, his anger reaching its peak.
"Clap, clap, clap." An awfully untimely applause sounded behind Ling Feng.
"You are the human who killed the demon child, indeed an impressive technique, quite a few pets you have, your prowess is fairly high, enough to warrant my attention,"
"My name is Wu Yang, one of the most outstanding geniuses of the Wraith Clan in the Three Realms, having come here to..."
Wu Yang hadn’t finished speaking when Ling Feng suddenly turned, immediately conjuring the shadow of the Chaos Sword in his hand.
In an instant, Ling Feng roared, already beside Wu Yang, and the Chaos Sword thunderously struck Wu Yang’s abdomen.
The majestic force sent Wu Yang flying, his body crushing several houses, ultimately landing in the ruins.
