82: Killing Night

There was no earth-shattering momentum, no spatial ripples; they simply appeared directly in the Xiong Manor as if emerging from the deepest shadows!

Their forms were grotesque; some resembled giant scorpions, their tail hooks gleaming with a chilling metallic luster.

Others were like mantises, the bone blades of their forelimbs carving terrifying arcs in the moonlight.

Some were like colossal wolves clad in bone armor, corrosive saliva dripping from their fangs.

And still others had double wings, hovering silently at low altitude, their compound eyes flickering with emotionless killing intent.

Their only commonality was the suffocating energy fluctuations emanating from them… all of them were Gold-level!

“Wooo!”

A shrill, distorted alarm tore through the Xiong Family’s former tranquility, but it only lasted for a brief moment before being drowned out by even more ear-piercing sounds of tearing metal, crushing bones, and the desperate wails of humans in their death throes!

Slaughter erupted in an instant!

“What are these things?!”

“Enemy attack! They’re magical beasts! Gold-level magical beasts!”

“Ah! My hand!!”

“Block them! Quick, block them… Ugh!”

The Silver-level guards responsible for vigilance and patrol on the Xiong Family’s periphery bore the brunt of the attack.

They were well-trained, and their reactions were swift.

The moment the Xenomorphs appeared, the light of battle aura, magic, and arrows flared up as they attempted to form a defensive line.

However, in the face of an absolute power disparity, any resistance seemed so pale and ridiculous.

A scorpion-shaped Xenomorph moved like a black lightning bolt; with a flick of its tail hook, it effortlessly pierced through the hastily condensed battle aura shields of several guards, along with their tempered steel armor!

Venom was injected instantly, and the guards didn't even have time to scream before their bodies shriveled, turned black, and dissolved into a puddle of pus at a visible rate.

A mantis-shaped Xenomorph swept its bone blades, and several solid-looking blade auras cut through in an instant.

The seven or eight guards in front, along with their weapons and shields, were neatly sliced into several pieces as if cut by a hot knife through butter; blood and organs splattered everywhere, staining the exquisite bluestone slabs.

The winged Xenomorphs in the air swooped down, their sharp claws easily tearing open the throats of the crossbowmen on the watchtowers, and their pointed proboscises directly pierced the skulls of other mages, sucking out their brains.

The explosive fireball condensed by a mage in his death throes detonated uncontrollably, but only left a few scorch marks on the Xenomorph’s hard bone armor.

Chaos!

Utter chaos!

Gold-level Xenomorphs against Silver-level guards was a complete dimensionality reduction attack!

There was no prolonged fighting, no back-and-forth; only the purest, most efficient harvesting!

With every breath, swathes of guards fell, their lives mercilessly reaped like grass.

The Xiong Family’s proud first line of defense collapsed within ten seconds of the Xenomorph Legion’s appearance!

Cursing, terrified screams, dying roars, the booming sound of collapsing buildings… all these sounds intertwined, forming a bloody and desperate symphony of death that echoed above the Xiong Manor.

The thick scent of blood, like a tangible mist, rapidly spread, instantly transforming this residence, a symbol of aristocratic glory, into a living hell.

Lin Feng’s figure appeared in the chaotic shadows.

He walked calmly, as if strolling in his own garden; even the hellish and brutal scene of slaughter around him could not stir a single emotion in him.

His target was clear… the quiet small building where the pseudo-transcendent professional resided.

The Alien Queen, Lie Kong, followed closely to his left, while Abyssal Venom, like the most loyal shadow, silently guarded his right.

Lie Kong’s long and deadly tail blade hung low, with viscous blood slowly dripping from its tip.

Abyssal Venom was covered in thick bone armor, like a moving fortress, emitting unsettling poisonous gas fluctuations.

Any Xiong Family members or guards who dared to appear in Lin Feng’s path, whether attempting to resist or fleeing in terror, met only one end — death!

“Catch him! Those Gold-level magical beasts seem to be under his command!”

A middle-aged man dressed in a Xiong Family steward’s uniform, accompanied by several Peak Silver guards, charged from the side with bloodshot eyes, his long sword gleaming with dazzling battle aura, attempting to capture the leader first.

Lin Feng didn’t even turn to look at him.

Lie Kong’s figure flickered like a ghost, disappearing from its original spot.

The next instant, the charging steward’s body suddenly stiffened.

He looked down in disbelief, seeing a bowl-sized blood hole, transparent from front to back, where his heart should be, appearing at some unknown moment!

Lie Kong’s tail blade was faster than the limits of visual perception!

Thud!

The steward’s corpse fell to the ground with a face full of astonishment.

The several guards behind him, at the same moment, had a smooth line of blood silently split across their necks, and their heads rolled off!

“Death God! This young man is the Death God! We’re finished!!”

Another collateral descendant of the Xiong Family, seeing this scene, was scared out of his wits and turned to scramble away.

Abyssal Venom merely slightly raised its forelimb, covered in thick bone armor, and gently pressed it against the ground.

Buzz!

An invisible, highly toxic force field instantly spread!

That collateral descendant had only run two steps when his body suddenly stiffened, his skin turning bluish-purple at a visible rate, his blood vessels bulging like earthworms, and then with a soft “pop,” his entire being exploded like an overinflated balloon, turning into a foul-smelling cloud of poisonous mist!

Forward march, leaving a trail of corpses!

Wherever Lin Feng passed, he left behind absolute silence and destruction.

Lie Kong and Abyssal Venom, like the most precise killing machines, silently eliminated all obstacles.

The Xiong Family members, who usually acted high and mighty and threw their weight around, now fell in swathes like mowed wheat.

Fear spread like a plague among the survivors; they screamed, cried, and ran around like headless chickens, no one daring to approach within thirty feet of Lin Feng!

The battle in the core area was even more intense.

Seven or eight Gold-level Xiong Family powerhouses finally reacted, roaring as they joined the fray.

“Beast! How dare you be so arrogant!”

A Gold-level strongman wielding a giant axe, his muscles bulging and battle aura burning like flames, cleaved his axe towards a Xenomorph resembling a tyrannosaur.

The axe blade let out a terrifying whoosh as it cut through the air, its power astonishing.

However, the tyrannosaur-shaped Xenomorph did not dodge; its bone-spiked head thrust forward fiercely!

Clang!

A colossal clang of metal on metal erupted!

The strongman felt an overwhelming, irresistible force transmit from the axe handle, numbing his arms, instantly splitting his tiger’s mouth, and the heavy giant axe was forcefully knocked out of his hands!

As a look of horror just appeared in his eyes, the tyrannosaur-shaped Xenomorph’s massive, tooth-filled maw bit down on his head!

“No!”

The desperate scream was cut short, leaving only the bone-chilling sound of bones shattering and flesh being torn.

Elsewhere, a Gold-level fire mage condensed a massive molten fireball, launching it at several Xenomorphs attacking him.

The intense heat scorched and distorted the air.

However, a Xenomorph completely covered in ice-blue bone armor blocked the front, opening its large mouth filled with ice crystal fangs, and spewed out a blast of extreme cold air!

Sizzle!

The molten fireball, capable of melting steel, was instantly frozen by this blast of cold air, turning into a giant ice block that crashed to the ground!

The cold air, undiminished, instantly froze the mage and his surrounding fire shield into an ice sculpture!

Then it was shattered to pieces by a sharp claw!

Gold-level against Gold-level!

The Xiong Family powerhouses were horrified to discover that these grotesque magical beasts not only possessed terrifying strength and astonishing speed but also strange and powerful innate abilities!

Their combat instincts were far superior to humans!

In one-on-one combat, they were no match at all!
