Chapter 660 - Tragedy In The Small Town



Chapter 660: Tragedy In The Small Town

Things were handled in the town, but it was still terribly damaged.

As Ou Yangming and Big Yellow walked, their faces darkened, and they vaguely released frightening killing intents.

Fortunately, the men from before did not follow them, or they would have crumbled due to the enormous pressures.

Wherever the young fellow and the big yellow dog walked, dried blood could be seen. The entire town was shrouded by a lifeless atmosphere, where there was no sense of life at all.

All of a sudden, Big Yellow twitched its nose hard and barked several times in a certain direction. It had become a spirit beast long ago, but it would sometimes bark a few times out of habit. This was its instinct, which could not be completely gotten rid of in just a year or two.

Ou Yangming stopped and looked in that direction.

A massive courtyard could be seen over there. The door was wide opened, but the whole courtyard seemed to be sealed by an invisible power.

The young fellow scoffed as the little trick could not hide from him. He turned around and walked toward the door, then he reached out his hands when he was near and casually made some strokes in the air.

With that, visible energy fluctuations appeared around Ou Yangming and Big Yellow the moment they entered the courtyard.

The energy fluctuations were not forceful, by which they did not intend to stop them and simply let them pass with ease.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming’s face changed after he entered the courtyard, and he was regretful.

He should not have entered this place.

Corpses were piled up inside, and most of them were incomplete.

Ou Yangming’s eyelids twitched, and he forced himself to look at them one by one. Before long, he noticed a pattern—some of the corpses were still intact but were killed in one hit, whereas some of them were in pieces.

Basically, the dead bodies of people with sturdier builds or higher cultivation bases were more ruined, whereas those of ordinary people were still in one piece.

After looking at their wounds, Ou Yangming further confirmed the murderers.

The lizards from the Insects!

It was no wonder those fellows suddenly disappeared without a sound. They had not escaped because they were terrified, but they took revenge through another method.

The people from the town were not very close to Ou Yangming, where they had only seen him once at most.

Even so, Ou Yangming was deeply infuriated when he saw their corpses here. His raging fire seemed to be burning him intensely, causing him to feel scorched.

Ou Yangming was not very old, but he had experienced many things. He initially thought that he had become calm enough to face anything in the most rational way.

It was when he saw the corpses all over the floor he knew he had not cultivated to that level.

There was an upsurge of strong shivers from the bottom of his heart, causing his body to tremble. He lifted his head abruptly and let out an earth-shattering roar.

“Ah—”

His voice spread far and wide, to the extent that Big Yellow, which was beside him, was taken aback.

Although Big Yellow saw the corpses too, it did not feel even a tenth of what Ou Yangming did.

It was not a human, after all, hence it could not understand Ou Yangming’s anger. Nevertheless, it could sense how he felt at this moment.

Ou Yangming finally stopped yelling after a brief moment. He lowered his head again to look at the corpses in the courtyard as though he wanted to remember them well.

Following that, he turned around and walked out through the door without any hesitation.

In a flash, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow returned to the town’s entrance. When the young fellow glanced coldly at the guards, they shuddered with fear and even breathed quickly.

They looked fearfully at Ou Yangming. They might not have confirmed his identity at first, but even a fool knew at this point that he was a Spiritualist. Moreover, he was extremely close to Sir Teng Liangpeng.

If Ou Yangming decided to vent his anger on them by beating them up, they would not be able to reason with him at all.

Therefore, when the men saw Ou Yangming walking out furiously, they immediately stood straight with respect and were no longer arrogant like they were when they interrogated him before this.

“S-sir, is there anything you need us to do?” The middle-aged man in charge forced an ugly smile and asked carefully.

“Where are the murderers?” Ou Yangming questioned coldly.

The middle-aged man was stunned. He answered with a bitter smile, “Sir, how would we know...”

Ou Yangming frowned. He was displeased, but he understood that the nobodies like them would not know anything.

The man seemed to notice that Ou Yangming was not going to make things difficult for them, so he racked his brain and finally blurted, “Sir, I heard that over 50 kilometers away in the forest behind the town, there’s a spot where the Insects gather, but I can’t tell if it’s true.”

Ou Yangming looked deeply at him, then he flashed and left like a ghost.

“Ah...”

The men lowered their heads as they dared not look at Ou Yangming. When they looked up again, they realized that the young fellow had disappeared.

They looked at each other and quivered as they had chills.

One of them then questioned softly, “Boss, why did you tell him that? One of our brothers risked his death to spread the news!”

The middle-aged man looked at his younger brothers and asked, “Tell me—did the people from this town die tragically?”

“Of course, it’s a tragedy. Those damn insects!” The faces of the other men changed, and they uttered ruthlessly.

The middle-aged man sighed. “Yes, they died miserably. As long as one’s a human, one shouldn’t stand by idly.” He paused for a while before he continued, “We’re not capable enough, so we can’t avenge their deaths, but that young master’s different...”

When the others recalled how Ou Yangming came and went like a ghost, as well as his notable momentum, they came to a sudden realization.

Indeed, if they wanted to take revenge for their fellow humans, they must have remarkable strengths. Since they were not capable enough, they could inform a human master.

No matter what, they must not let those damn insects live on like that.

“But...” The man that spoke earlier expressed hesitantly, “Senior Lin told us not to talk too much.”

The middle-aged man glared at him. “Who talked too much? Did you hear anything talking too much?”

“No—nobody did!”

Everyone else looked at each other and responded at the same time. In fact, even the man that questioned the middle-aged man earlier reacted the same way.

The middle-aged man nodded satisfyingly, then he looked into the distance and mumbled, “Damn insects, go to hell!”

※※※※

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow entered the forest on the mountain behind the town. They scanned the area to look for traces of the Insects.

To their surprise, the Insects did not seem to have hidden their tracks after they wiped out the villages. They entered the forest openly and left enough tracks for anyone to find where they headed to.

Big Yellow twitched its nose and commented, “Those damn insects left behind a stench; they left in this direction. Hmph, judging from their obvious tracks, they were probably afraid that we won’t be able to find them, huh?”

Ou Yangming sneered. “Those insects left behind their traces on purpose to lure human powerhouses so that they can catch them all in one go.”

The big yellow dog blinked and said, “Perhaps they’re not waiting for human powerhouses, but us.”

Ou Yangming smirked. A rare hideous smile could be seen on his face. “They’re waiting for us? That... Couldn’t be better!”

The 2 of them walked swiftly and went deep into the forest by following the lizards’ tracks. While Ou Yangming sounded overbearing, he was cautious as he dared not make any mistakes.

Since the lizards were so confident, they must have gathered enough powerhouses.

They were probably waiting for their prey somewhere, but Ou Yangming was not going to be that unlucky prey.

For the next few days, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow advanced, but they eventually slowed down. They encountered a few lizards along the way, but they were mostly there to do odds and ends. Most of them were half-spirit beasts, but there were occasionally 1 or 2 spirit beasts.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow could not be bothered about those lizards at all, but they knew the lizards were mysteriously connected, by which all of them would be alerted if any of them was killed.

Hence, as outraged as the young fellow was, he tried to control himself by ignoring the guarding lizards. He and the big yellow dog slowly made their way to the center.

At last, when they arrived at the periphery of a hill without a sound, they could not advance further.

This was because they sensed several fearsome auras on the hill, each one mightier than their auras. It was a sign that they had found the high-rank spirit beasts.

Instead of just 1, there were 6 of those auras.

This meant that 6 high-rank lizards were gathered here.

Big Yellow opened its mouth to bite Ou Yangming’s shirt, and it shook its head lightly.

The enemies here were too formidable. If they were to go against the lizards, they would likely fail to take revenge and might even be killed instead.

Big Yellow was reckless, but it knew they should save themselves first if they were powerless.

Who knew, Ou Yangming shook his head and was determined.

Ever since he saw the corpses, he had been feeling uncomfortable as if there was a giant load in his mind.

If he wanted to vent his anger, he could only do it on those lizards.

Needless to say, he would not fight a hopeless battle.

As Ou Yangming turned his wrist, 2 unique cloaks appeared in his hand.

Subsequently, he smiled sinisterly, so much so that even Big Yellow felt a chill down its spine when it looked at him.
