I Contracted Myself

Instant Kill!

In the endless radiance, all the living corpses were instantly reduced to ashes.

The Awakeners were on high alert. Although they knew Situ Shibai was powerful, only by facing him did they truly comprehend the despair-inducing terror of his strength.

Fortunately, Situ Shibai's main targets were Li Aoxue, Yu Chenghai, and others. The rest of the Awakeners only received a fraction of his attention.

Even so, many Awakeners were instantly defeated.

Of course, Situ Shibai didn't kill them; he just rendered them incapable of fighting.

"Is this all you've got?" Li Aoxue's figure was elusive, always just out of reach of the light beams.

She took out a conch, ready to blow it, when she suddenly noticed a little girl sitting on a nearby rooftop, swinging her fair legs, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.

"Chen Junting!"

Li Aoxue's pupils contracted instantly, recognizing the little girl.

The problem was, why was Chen Junting here? She should have obtained the Holy Mother's Blood and entered her transformation period.

Once she entered the transformation period, the Holy Mother's Blood would be activated, causing all Mutated Beasts within Mingzhu City to kneel and become immobile. Even King Grade Mutated Beasts would be suppressed into a lethargic state, greatly diminishing their strength.

But now that Chen Junting was here, it meant the Zhao brothers had failed?

Damn!

Li Aoxue realized the situation was dire.

She made a quick decision: "Yu Chenghai, things have changed. Take our people and retreat immediately!"

"But... Yes!" Yu Chenghai hesitated at first, but seeing Li Aoxue's determined gaze, he quickly complied.

Situ Shibai also noticed Chen Junting on the rooftop. He halted his attack, sensing an instinctive fear of the Great Terror.

In fact, he possessed an Appraisal Skill, more advanced and detailed than Zhang Ping's.

But when he used it on Chen Junting, he saw her bizarre attributes.

...

Advanced?

According to Liu Sishan's report, Chen Junting should be an Intermediate Awakener and only Level 13. How did she suddenly become Advanced?

And how could a human coexist with a Fallen?

Situ Shibai had lived for over two hundred years, but this was the first time he had seen such strange attributes.

Especially the 'Shadow Path's Luo Hai Fallen Legacy,' which was not only incomprehensible but also resulted in question marks in the appraisal.

Unknown meant danger.

Situ Shibai speculated that Chen Junting might be controlled by the Fallen.

"Are you guys done fighting?" Chen Junting asked curiously, seeing everyone stop, especially the old man and the pretty lady staring at her.

Li Aoxue smiled, "Little girl, it's very late. Where are your parents?"

"Not telling you. Even though you're pretty, it's wrong to bully old people." Chen Junting said mischievously.

Li Aoxue smiled, "You're right, little girl. I'm sorry, old man!"

While apologizing, she glared at Situ Shibai.

With Chen Junting here, it was obvious that Situ Shibai had sent someone to deal with the Zhao brothers.

The foxes in the City Lord's mansion, without Chen Junting's suppression, were probably all awake by now and aware of the commotion at Monument Square.

"Little girl, it's late. Since I've apologized, I'll go home and sleep now." Li Aoxue smiled faintly, and the next moment, her body dissipated with the wind.

Situ Shibai knew he couldn't stop Li Aoxue if she wanted to leave. Moreover, Chen Junting was crucial to the Zhu Family's plans, so he couldn't let her run wild.

Seeing Li Aoxue's people retreat, he slowly walked towards Chen Junting and said, "Little girl, where do you live? I'll take you home."

Although he knew the people from Hanhai Academy had already left, he needed an excuse to take Chen Junting away.

"I don't want to go home. I still have many places to visit. Goodbye, old man. Little Black, let's go!" Chen Junting stuck out her tongue at Situ Shibai and disappeared the next moment.

Situ Shibai had tracking abilities, but when he tried to track Chen Junting, he found her trail untraceable.

As he prepared to leave, a tail silently appeared and pierced his abdomen. The most terrifying part was that he didn't even realize it and thought he had already left.

"Why do I have a strange feeling?"

Situ Shibai walked forward slowly, seeing his office ahead.

But in reality, he was facing the Tianchang Fox King, the Moon King!

The Moon King had been observing in the shadows for some time, but with Chen Junting present, it had felt uneasy and didn't dare to come out.

"Interesting human. Even with a fatal wound, you don't die." The Moon King said hoarsely, looking at Situ Shibai.

Then it reached out and twisted Situ Shibai's head off. Even headless, Situ Shibai was still alive, muttering to himself in his illusion.

The Moon King watched Situ Shibai's head for about a minute before blowing a breath.

Under this breath, Situ Shibai's flesh melted away, leaving only bones. But soon, the bones sprouted flesh, and within half a minute, Situ Shibai was alive again.

"Terrifying."

The Moon King was certain that if the old man before it were of the same level, it would die a thousand times without posing a threat to him.

Humans, truly a terrifying race.

Perhaps the rumor it had heard from other races wasn't false.

If they kept eating humans, Mutated Beasts might one day gain human potential.

The Moon King pondered, blowing another breath. Situ Shibai died again, but soon revived. The Moon King sat down, deciding to kill Situ Shibai each time he revived.

In the southern part of the city.

A large number of Patrol Guard members arrived, surrounding the Awakeners.

Feng Laixian and Wu Ruoyu's hands were held by someone—Lin Kedi.

But no one could see through the facade of Lin Kedi, who was actually a Tianchang Fox in disguise.

"Let go, Lin Kedi! What are you doing? He's a traitor! He betrayed Mingzhu City!" Feng Laixian shouted angrily.

Wu Ruoyu squinted, ready to strike and kill Lin Kedi along with the traitor. But a hand instantly removed his head, and in his final moments, he saw a youthful face.

"Who would've thought... Our Patrol Guard was only supposed to protect the City Lord for a few days, and such chaos ensued. Everyone, drop your weapons, or be killed without mercy!" Lin Kedi released Feng Laixian's hand and shouted loudly.

The Awakeners hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly dropped their weapons. The Tianchang Foxes disguised as Patrol Guard members revealed sinister smiles.
