Volume 2: The Source of Life Chapter 37: Wind Blows Water Leaves No Trace

  At this time, Tang Li also walked out, with a 16A2 rifle slung over his back and a Type 92 handgun pressed against Lin Hongyi's head. In the distant factory building, through the window, Wang Fujun was seen hanging in mid-air, tied up with five flowers, next to him was a charred human-shaped object, apparently that monkey had died.

  "You're really ruthless, you don't even care about your brother's life and death, what about that woman?" Tang Lie stood at the door, excitedly rubbing the barrel of his gun against Yan Hongyi's head. Poor Yan Hongyi had never seen such a scene before, he was already scared stiff, and didn't dare to move even when the barrel scraped against his scalp, his body leaning softly against Tang Lie, tears streaming down his face.

  "Don't be like this, she's still a child." I said with a heavy heart.

  "Kid?" Tang Lie went crazy and roared: "To hell with kids! You're also a kid!"

  I threw down the gun and spread out my hands, saying softly: "What do you want to do? Speak!"

  Tang Lie shouted: "Speak? Now you're finally going to speak, what were you doing earlier? I'm not asking anymore. I just want this little girl to die, and I want you to watch your girlfriend die in front of you but be powerless to do anything about it. Hahahaha..."

  I slowly moved forward, saying: "Don't be like this, what you want is nothing but my life. Let her go, and I'll give you my life!"

  "Tang Lie shouted: 'Halt, don't come any closer.'"

  Lian Hongyi's eyes sparkled with tears as she softly called out, "Fang Cheng, I..."

  Tang Lie grabbed Vien Hong Yi's throat and stopped her from speaking, then roared at me: "Take off your clothes!"

  "Huh?"

  "Throw away your weapons!"

  I've got it now, throw away all the hand grenades on me and also toss that military dagger far away.

  "What's with your hands behind your back? Put them in front." Tang Lie said nervously as he saw me put my hands behind my back.

  "Calm down," I said, putting my hand in a place where Tang Lie could see it.

  At this time, Tang Lie said again: "Take off your clothes!"

  "What's wrong?" I replied with feigned ignorance.

  "Take off your clothes!" Tang Lie yelled frantically as he jabbed the gun barrel at Lian Hongyi's head with all his might.

  No longer hesitant, I quickly took off my clothes.

  "Take off your underwear, shoes and socks!"

  When I took off the last pair of underwear, Lin Hongyi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise and shyly closed her eyes.

  "Go around!"

  As soon as Tang Lie's order was given, I followed it obediently and continued to do so until he was completely relieved. Only then did Tang Lie flash out from behind Lin Hongyi's body, laughing sinisterly: "Youngster, which unit are you from? What is your relationship with the Tianlong Society? Why did you want to kill Tang Chao? What conspiracy is lurking behind?"

  I stood there naked, shrugged helplessly and said, "Sorry, I don't know what you're saying."

  "Hahaha, don't you know?" Tang Lie burst into crazy laughter, and with a push, he knocked down Lin Hongyi. He then fired a shot at her feet. Bang... the flames lit up, and Tang Lie's face twisted in ferocity, "I'll let you know right now!"

  "Really?" I smiled faintly, and at the sight of this scene, Tang Lie's frantic expression suddenly stopped, his clear eyes flashing with a sharp light, and he took a step forward to grab Xiang Hongyi who was about to fall.

  But... it's too late!

  Hiss!

  A flash of knife light lit up in the black night, like a meteor, swiftly shooting towards Tang Lie's heart. I shook my left hand and removed the rotten mud from the wound, and then the flying knife was hidden in the rotten mud on my arm.

  A soft and thin mist of light envelops the severed arm, a cool air permeating the entire body.

  "You......you......" Tang Lie clutched his chest, his eyes no longer having that previous frantic look.

  I smiled faintly and walked slowly in front of him, bent down, and whispered in his ear: "You're overdoing it!"

  A sharp glint flashed in Tang Lie's eyes, and then dimmed again.

  I had already guessed that his previous crazy behavior was fake, with the quality of being a fine soldier, even if parents were killed in front of them, they should remain calm. Tang Lie saw that I was determined he wouldn't harm innocent civilians, so he pretended to be crazy, making me worry about my friend's safety and disrupting my mental defense line.

  Unfortunately, countless cycles of reincarnation have allowed me to encounter too many opponents, each with their own agenda. But apart from being outmaneuvered by the Soul Reaper, I haven't tasted the bitterness of defeat in a long time.

  Sensing Tang Lie's intentions, I went along with him, pretending to be deceived, making him numb and relaxed.

  At this moment, the knife handle was still inserted in Tang Lie's chest, he supported himself on the ground, and struggled to look at me, "Tang... Tang Chao..."

  He spoke with great difficulty, I knew what he wanted to say, shook his head and said: "No."

  Tang Lie's eyes dimmed, and he spoke weakly: "I... I'm going to die... you..."

  I shook my head again, "Sorry, even if you were going to die, my answer wouldn't change."

  "You!!" Tang Lie's eyes bulged with anger, growling as if he wanted to say something, but his breath never came back up, his head tilted to one side, and with a deep regret, he closed his eyes and died.

  I took another deep look at Tang Lie and turned around to leave.

  In front of the Soul Reaper, even death is no guarantee of keeping a secret.

  I can't afford to make another mistake on this point.

  "Square formation!" Lin Miao Xian ran out from the dense forest, and behind her, KaKa followed closely, trotting along on his short legs.

  Staring at the corpses all over the ground, Lin Moxian stood there stiffly, speechless for a long time.

  I calmly walked up to her and said peacefully: "Master, all enemies have been eliminated."

  "Alright!" Another low cry from a woman came from behind.

  Lian Hongyi sat on the muddy ground, looking at the corpse of Gao Pangzi beside her with an uneasy expression, her eyes filled with disbelief. She hadn't been injured, but what had just happened was too stimulating for her, and she couldn't accept it for a while.

  Lin Miao Xian, who had also seen dead bodies before, remained silent for a long time. She glanced at the two people from Peter's sect and let out a soft sigh. "Let's go, we should head back to report."

  I nodded silently.

  Kakabu glanced at my crippled left arm with a strange look, but said nothing. He took out a transparent sphere the size of an apple from his bosom and walked towards the corpse of Gao Pangzi.

  Lin Mou Xian exclaimed: "Soul-Devouring Bead!"

  Before I could react, Kakabu had already walked to Gao Baozi's side, bowing her head and muttering something. Suddenly, a dazzling light burst out from the small bead in her hand, and gradually, the scattered light points around us began to gather together, surging towards the small bead.

  Finally, Kakabu put away the transparent sphere and walked up to me with a smile, saying "Here you go!"

  I glanced at her lightly and didn't reach out.

  "Rest assured, this is a Soul Devouring Bead, and inside it is your friend's soul."

  Lin Miao Xian's surprised expression told me that this Soul Devouring Bead was no ordinary item. I asked in puzzlement, "Why give it to me?" Now, anything related to the Legacy of the Soul Masters had my attention.

  "Aiyo, it's just a small gift, if you don't want it I'll throw it away! Then your friend will really disappear!"

  I gazed at her quietly for a while and sighed: "Take it away!"

  The Soul-Devouring Bead felt very light in his hand. Inside the transparent small bead, a white thin line was swimming around, looking quite beautiful.

  "Alright, let's go!" Lin Muxian said as he walked forward.

  "Fang Cheng..." Hong Yi suddenly looked up and called out to me, quickly turning his head back around and weakly saying: "You're leaving?"

  "Uh-huh!" I replied softly.

  "Where are you going?"

  "I don't know!"

  "Huh?" Lin Hongyi turned his head and looked over, with tears flickering in his eyes. "Will you never come back again?"

  I silently watched her, nodding quietly in agreement.

  Life is like a very long road, where people come and go, some accompany you for a while, others just pass by. However, whether they join or leave, as long as you cherish the time, it's not a wasted journey in life.

  In the month since Lin Muxian arrived, many things have happened, but they had different effects on everyone. For most of his classmates, Lin Muxian was just a fleeting beauty, and with a snap of his fingers, he became a memory.

  Then they will continue on their own path in life, going to college, falling in love, getting married, having children...

  But for me, her arrival will change my hundreds of years of dull life, from then on, I will set foot on the path to the unknown.

  A gentle breeze blows in, dark clouds drift by, and the cool moonlight spills onto the earth.

  I stood with my hands behind me and gazed up at the sky. After a long while, I withdrew my distant gaze and muttered to myself: "Let's go, we're setting off!"

  "Let's go, let's go, go home!" KaKaBu laughed innocently and brightly, but suddenly, her face showed a puzzled expression. "Fang Cheng Gege, aren't you very hot? Why are you all sweaty?"

  As soon as this was said, the two women's bodies suddenly shook, and they suddenly realized that I was completely naked. The unseemly thing was particularly eye-catching under the moonlight. Lin Miao Xian's face turned bright red with anger, she stamped her foot in hatred, and quickly ran away, shouting "Rascal!"

  I lowered my head and swept it away, and for some reason, a burst of laughter surged out from my heart. Then, I couldn't help but laugh loudly, the hearty laughter echoing through the mountains and forests, filled with complex emotions, lingering on for a long time.

  "Let's go!"

  P: Hmm, the first volume ends here. What's next? The protagonist will enter the world of Soul Masters, with such a character and in that circle, what will happen? As for me, I'm actually quite looking forward to it. With so many black votes, I don't know how it'll turn out either. Just like the book says, ahahah... life is always unpredictable, never knowing when you'll die.

  Later, today is the last day of this week, those who have votes can vote, and those who have collected can collect. Clicking is good, hoping to be on the list tomorrow.
