10: If you want to know the answer, go find it yourself!

Sizzle, sizzle!

Lin Qi Ye's body was incredibly hot at this moment.

Song Zhong's left hand, gripping Lin Qi Ye's wrist, was sizzling and smoking, like roasted meat.

Lin Qi Ye was stunned.

Bro, doesn't your hand hurt? It hurts just looking at it!

A burning, stinging sensation came from his palm, but Song Zhong felt this touch was exhilarating!

Maybe he really was a pervert!

But so what?

There are so many people who are not recognized, not understood; it doesn't matter to add one more!

Lin Qi Ye looked at Song Zhong's Little Pig Peppa mask and no longer wanted to think!

He was tired, let it be whatever it wanted to be!

As long as you're happy!

Lin Qi Ye put down his white cane and sat on the ground, the dazzling pillar of light in the sky had not disappeared.

It was like a spotlight on a stage, illuminating Lin Qi Ye…

In stark contrast to Lin Qi Ye's despondency, other parts of Cangnan City had exploded into chaos!

“What the heck is that? A fireworks show?”

“Are you stupid? Whose fireworks can reach the sky?”

“You two, stop debating, hurry up and take pictures! I'm going viral tonight!”

The curious onlookers only needed to take pictures, but the members of 136 Squad had more to consider.

“That is…” Hong Ying stared blankly at the sky, disregarding her injuries.

“A Forbidden Territory has appeared, and it's ridiculously strong!”

“Yeah, it feels like this scale is at least a Fifth Realm 'Immeasurable', no, a Sixth Realm 'Klein'. Is Cangnan City on fire? How did a master of this level come here?”

But Chen Muye frowned, “No, this doesn't look like a human Forbidden Territory!”

“Huh?”

The others gasped, if it wasn't a human Forbidden Territory, then it could only be… a God Ruins?

“A God Ruins? Whose God's could it be?”

Chen Muye stared intently at the pillar of light, saying word by word:

“Sacred, scorching. If I'm not mistaken, it should be God Code 003, the Angel King, Michael!”

At this moment, Zhao Kongcheng, driving the van, also saw the pillar of light!

“Holy moly! What's happening?!”

He slammed the accelerator and drove towards the direction of the light pillar…

In the alley, the light on Lin Qi Ye's body gradually disappeared. He now felt as if his body had been hollowed out, without even the strength to stand up.

Song Zhong ignored Lin Qi Ye and walked directly towards the group of Ghost-Face Man.

Perhaps Michael's aura was too powerful, as they remained motionless, as if they hadn't noticed Song Zhong.

“Tsk, that saves a lot of trouble!”

Song Zhong raised his knife and brought it down, decapitating a Ghost-Face Man, then peeled off its face.

Decapitate, peel; decapitate, peel…

Song Zhong continuously repeated the actions until he had peeled off the tenth Ghost-Face Man's face.

That was enough, but there were still twenty Ghost-Face Man remaining.

Song Zhong opened his System panel and found that the progress bar for the face-peeling task was full.

So, he clicked on two more tasks.

“Kill 10 Zhan Realm Mysterious, dig out their eyeballs, arrange them in a circle according to the kill order, and use the host's blood as a guide for the sacrifice! Sacrifice Value: 30”

“Kill 10 Zhan Realm Mysterious, take their ears, arrange them in a circle according to the kill order, and use the host's blood as a guide for the sacrifice! Sacrifice Value: 30”

Immediately after, Song Zhong killed all twenty remaining Ghost-Face Man.

Just as he was about to dig out the eyeballs, he suddenly had an idea.

Would digging out eyeballs from the Ghost-Face Man whose faces had already been peeled count towards completing the task?

If it did, wouldn't it be possible to use one corpse for multiple purposes? How environmentally friendly!

No sooner said than done, Song Zhong extended his index and middle fingers and gouged out the eyeballs of the faceless Ghost-Face Man.

Lin Qi Ye, beside him, was already immune to Song Zhong; this guy could do whatever he wanted!

The progress bar for the new task had not changed.

Song Zhong shook his head, how stingy, it really didn't intend to let him cut corners.

So, he dug out the eyeballs from the new corpses.

Sure enough, this time the task's progress bar increased.

Soon, Song Zhong had collected ten pairs of eyeballs and ten pairs of ears.

Lin Qi Ye finally couldn't help himself, “Who exactly are you? What is the purpose of doing this? Also, you know me, and you knew I would definitely Awaken my ability, why?”

Song Zhong looked at Lin Qi Ye with disdain, “Are you 'One Hundred Thousand Whys'? So many questions!”

Lin Qi Ye stubbornly looked at Song Zhong, who chuckled, “If you want to know the answers to your questions, go find them yourself! How do you know what I tell you isn't a lie?”

“You…” Lin Qi Ye was so angry he could barely speak.

Just then, a figure descended from the sky, and with him, his straight blade.

It was an unadorned straight blade!

The cold blade drew a crescent moon, its target precisely the back of Song Zhong's neck.

A pale-faced young man sat on the ground, a masked man covered in blood crouched amidst the Ghost-Face Man corpses.

Anyone seeing this scene would identify the Ghost-Face Man as a dangerous target.

Zhao Kongcheng was no exception!

Clang…

A resonant metallic clang echoed through the alley!

Dazzling sparks flashed by.

Song Zhong remained crouched in place, holding his skinning knife in his right hand.

Just as Zhao Kongcheng was about to strike him, his right hand had already extended behind him, and the skinning knife just happened to block Zhao Kongcheng's attack.

Zhao Kongcheng's eyes widened instantly.

What a joke?

How was this possible?

That strike just now, in terms of timing, angle, and force, was meticulously calculated by Zhao Kongcheng.

An ordinary person couldn't possibly dodge it!

But this Ghost-Face Man not only blocked it, but the timing was perfect, neither too early nor too late.

Could it be that this guy had eyes in the back of his head?

Zhao Kongcheng retreated, creating a safe distance.

He dared not be distracted in the slightest; the opponent was a top-tier master.

Song Zhong stood up from the ground, turned around, and looked at Zhao Kongcheng with a smile: “General Zhao, why attack a good citizen?”

Sweat beads the size of soybeans rolled down Zhao Kongcheng's face.

“Don't joke, you don't look like a good citizen at all!”

Zhao Kongcheng was so nervous that he didn't even notice Song Zhong calling him General Zhao.

“General Zhao, I know you're a good person, but don't judge a person easily by their appearance, and it seems a bit arbitrary to distinguish humans by such simple standards of good and bad!”

Song Zhong quite liked Zhao Kongcheng; he remembered shedding tears when he read about Zhao Kongcheng's death in the original novel.

But that was in his previous life.

Zhao Kongcheng glanced at the Ghost-Face Man's corpses, and suddenly, he seemed to remember something.

“Wait, could it be that you're the Forbidden Territory wielder from that day at Xiaomei Hair Salon?”

“Oh?” Song Zhong cast an appreciative glance, “As expected of someone from 136 Squad, you recognized me so quickly!”

Zhao Kongcheng didn't know why, but after the other party admitted it, he suddenly wasn't as nervous.

“Who are you, and what is your purpose?”

Song Zhong looked at Zhao Kongcheng, then at Lin Qi Ye.

He let out a snicker.

“You two are really alike! If you want to know the answer, go find it yourselves!”

With that, Song Zhong snapped his fingers, and his entire being transformed into specks of light, disappearing into the alley.
