for the Dead
"I, I, I...what's wrong with me?!"
When Luo Daolin regained consciousness, he found that he was the only one left in the private room. Both the beautiful women and the hunters were gone.
At this time, the private room was filled with black mist and cold air. The bone-chilling temperature made him shiver, and he couldn't help but curl up with a look of horror on his face.
But as soon as he shrank onto the sofa, his body suddenly shook, because he heard the sound of footsteps in the dark fog ahead of him.
Da da da……
The footsteps were steady and heavy, like a reminder.
Luo Daolin tried his best to lean back again, but there was already a wall behind him, and he had no way to hide.
Soon, a figure dressed in black, wearing a cloak and a ferocious ghost mask appeared from the fog and stood in front of him.
The tall figure was like a shadow covering the sky and the sun, reflecting in Luo Daolin's pupils and shrouding his heart.
He was so frightened that he shrank down hard, but this was of no use and only served to highlight his weakness.
When a beast loses its reliance, its true colors are revealed. No matter how human it once was, it is ultimately just a stupid dog relying on human power.
"Hello!"
Looking at Luo Laoer who was shrinking into a ball, Xia Chen said coldly, startling him, and Hun'er almost frightened him.
But how could he care so much? He directly reached out and grabbed this guy's hair, punched him in the face, and dealt a brutal blow.
In an instant, the entire bridge of Luo Laoer's nose was collapsed, and blood spattered everywhere, causing him to cry out in pain:
"Ahhhh..."
"Shut up!"
But in the next second, a cold command penetrated into his ears, filled with murderous intent, causing him to shut his mouth again.
If it were those dudes from before, Xia Chen wouldn't talk nonsense to them at all, he would just cut off his head and leave.
But this guy is different. He wants to confirm something, which is why he has to come.
"I ask you, have you seen the person in this photo? If you tell me honestly, I might be able to spare your life..."
Immediately afterwards, he took out a photo. The photo showed a woman in her twenties, with a dimple-like smile, gentleness and beauty.
Hearing that he might survive, Luo Laoer nodded quickly, then took the photo and looked at it carefully...
And soon he recognized that the woman in the photo was the one he killed a week ago. He couldn't help but swallowed and began to guess the relationship between "Yam Luo" and this woman.
Seeing the change in the expression on his face, Xia Chen knew that this guy had not run away.
Then his eyes narrowed, his palms clenched, and his pupils were filled with murderous aura.
The woman in the photo is his neighbor's daughter, she is seven or eight years older than him, and she and her predecessor were childhood sweethearts.
She takes great care of both her predecessor and her time-travel self. Especially after her predecessor's parents passed away, she often expresses her concern in various ways.
She is a gentle and kind person. She should have a beautiful life and live happily.
But one night a week ago, she went out and never came home. When the two elders next door found out, the police had already called.
The police couldn't tell who she was hit to death by, but Xia Chen knew that this matter was far from simple. Someone must have secretly bribed the police to destroy the evidence of the hit.
Over the past year, he has been cared for and received a lot of kindness from others. Therefore, he must find out the matter and never let such a kind person die in vain.
After several days of investigation, he finally found Luo Laoer, but since no one paid much attention to this matter and he had no definite evidence, he was not completely sure.
But now, even if Luo Laoer hasn't said anything yet, his reaction has already explained a lot of things, so the next thing is very simple...
He wants this beast to pay for his life!
However, just as Xia Chen was about to take action, a message of thought suddenly penetrated outside the area of [Naihe Bridge]:
"Yam Luo! If you dare to touch the children of my Luo family today, our Luo family will be at odds with you. I will issue the highest provincial reward to the Hunter Guild. Then hunters from the entire Tianlan Province will come to take your life!"
Xia Chen recognized this voice and it was none other than Luo Wentian, the current head of the Luo family, Luo Laoer's father.
It can be seen that this old guy is really driven into a hurry, otherwise he would not take the risk of transmitting the message and putting his thoughts into his own field.
"hehe……"
After hearing Luo Wentian's threat, Xia Chen grinned, with a flash of disdain in his eyes.
Provincial reward?
Offering a reward for "Yam Luo"?
What does that have to do with me, Xia Chen!
So, he first controlled the Yin Qi in the domain to entangle Luo Wentian's thoughts, and directly forced him back. At the same time, he also gave the old guy a "meeting gift".
Then with a thought, a blue beam of light instantly appeared, and Bai Wuchang Qiye also appeared in front of Luo Laoer, and activated [Sin Karma Transformation Flame] to ignite the deep sins in his body.
boom!
In an instant, Luo Laoer's body started to burn, and bloody fire shot up into the sky, burning extremely violently.
This shows that this guy has done a lot of bad things in his daily life and accumulated a lot of sinful karma, but now these have become the fuel of the karmic fire, helping him to be wiped out.
Past cause, today's effect...
Nothing more than that.
Soon, Luo Laoer's body was burned into charcoal, and when he touched it with his fingers, it turned into ash and scattered in the air.
But Xia Chen still didn't feel satisfied, and controlled the dark wind in the area to forcefully arrest all the flying ash, and under the control of his mind, he condensed it into a palm-sized black dog sculpture.
After putting this piece of shit in his pocket, Xia Chen briefly sensed the location of the Luo family outside the domain, then raised the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly.
Then he took out the [Dark Mist] card again, transformed into black mist, and floated upwards.
After floating to a safe height, Xia Chen took back the area of [Naihe Bridge], and the purple light flashed, hiding in the black mist.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Wen's angry roar came from the KTV below, but he didn't care at all and drifted directly towards home.
However, after returning to his apartment building, Xia Chen did not go home directly. Instead, he observed it and drifted into the window of the next door house.
At this time, the two elders next door had already fallen asleep, and the living room was dark. Only two weak candles illuminated a black and white photo of the deceased. Above the photo...
The familiar pretty face showed a gentle smile.
The next moment, Xia Chen condensed his figure, stood in front of the deceased photo, and bowed deeply.
"Thank you for taking care of me in the past. I have avenged you. I hope you... can rest in peace."
After speaking softly, he took out the black dog from his pocket and put it in his hand. He stretched his hand forward as if he wanted to show it to the person in the photo.
Then, he closed his palms and squeezed it hard, crushing it into pieces, turning around and throwing it into the toilet, and flushed it into the sewer.
After doing all this, he seemed to remember something again. According to the custom in his previous life, today is her first day, so she should burn a stick of incense before leaving.
But this world didn't seem to have such a custom of "burning incense", so he simply put his hands together and said a few words of condolence for her, then he took a long breath and turned into black mist again and returned to his home.
And after he left, I don't know whether it was the wind blowing or something else, but the candle next to the portrait swayed slightly, and the firelight was distorted for a moment.
And under the illumination of this distorted firelight, the woman in the photo...
The smile seemed to be much brighter.
