Who Exactly Belonged to the Sky Demon Alliance?

Chen Wang darted away, his movements incredibly fast, and soon caught up with that chilling aura.

His eyes gleamed with Spiritual Light, and he immediately saw through the true nature of that chilling aura.

It was a small ghost with a big head, a big belly, and a very thin neck. It looked extremely Evil Qi, with bluish-black skin and a strong aura of ferocity. However, it was impossible to discern with the naked eye, even for martial artists.

This world does not possess Spirit Eye, but martial artists have relatively keen senses and can distinguish the cold aura, though they cannot see through their true forms.

Chen Wang followed the pregnant ghost all the way up, thinking to himself, "Where did this wandering ghost come from?"

At this time, a middle-aged man was staying in an inn in the city. He looked like an ordinary merchant.

He lived in a separate courtyard behind the inn, and his brows were furrowed at the moment.

Soon, the little imp floated over and flew back to his side, chirping incessantly.

The middle-aged man's eyes had more white than black in them, which looked rather strange.

After the brat flew over, his expression turned somewhat strange. "Could it be that the Xu Family has some powerful martial artist?"

The middle-aged man found it strange. He did not appear to be outstanding on the surface, nor was he a martial arts master. However, in reality, if a martial artist at the Meridian Opening Realm was not careful, he would kill them in their sleep or after nightfall.

This middle-aged man, named Chu Xiong, was originally just an ordinary person who did some business, but later he mastered this extraordinary ability.

On the surface, he is a merchant, but in reality, he is a member of the Sky Demon Alliance.

After the little devil ran back, he immediately tore open his chest, and the little devil crawled into his body.

There was a large hole in his chest, the flesh inside had long since dried up, and his internal organs had been hollowed out; this little devil lived inside.

Now that it had returned to his chest, the little devil remained motionless, its hideous and sinister face branded onto his chest.

The middle-aged man, Chu Xiong, dressed himself neatly, when he suddenly saw a young man gracefully arrive under the moonlight, landing silently.

Chu Xiong said coldly, "Who are you!"

At this moment, his hand was already on his chest. Direct combat was not his forte, after all, he was not a true demon, which had its drawbacks.

"You've raised such a good-for-nothing brat who only ruins things for others, what kind of thing are you!"

Chen Wang said coldly.

Chu Xiong was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this young man with such an extraordinary temperament would speak in such a quack-like manner.

He connected the dots between what had just happened and concluded that the other party was either a young swordsman from the martial arts world who had come to meddle in other people's business, or someone from the imperial court.

Chu Xiong immediately activated his special ability, and a strong stench of corpses emanated from his body. The big-bellied little ghost on his chest immediately pounced out.

Although this brat isn't strong in direct combat, he can kill silently, unseen by ordinary martial artists, and difficult to defend against, thus buying him a lot of time.

"You've raised this little devil, is he trying to scare your dad?"

Chen Wang said dismissively, "That's so low-class!"

He then gently tapped the little devil, and it was imprisoned in the void, unable to move.

Chu Xiong fed this little ghost with his own Essence Blood. The little ghost was blessed by demons and tainted with evil energy. In reality, it had long since become a ghost slave.

When he saw Chen Wang freeze the little devil with a single gesture and reveal the little devil's origin, he was startled and exclaimed, "Who are you?"

Chen Wang said calmly, "You are not worthy to ask my name!"

He slowly walked towards Chu Xiong. The little ghost was unable to move in the void and actually sensed fear from this ferocious creature.

"If you're Ghost Raising, at least keep a decent one. Keeping this thing is too shabby and embarrassing!"

Chen Wang also knew the art of Ghost Raising, but he didn't even consider those of ordinary quality.

Chu Xiong was terrified. He cried out in fear, "Young master, please don't kill me! I'll tell you anything you want to know!"

He decisively admitted defeat.

"Tell me?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. "What do I want to ask you?"

Chen Wang then flicked his finger, and a burst of energy shattered his left kneecap.

"Ah!"

His scream echoed through the peaceful night.

Although he lived in the courtyard behind the inn, his scream would still startle the other guests nearby.

He rolled on the ground while clutching his legs, trying to alert the surrounding guests so he could escape in the chaos.

But no one came in even after he screamed on the ground for a while.

Chen Wang said, "Hey, you old rascal, you're pretty cunning. What, trying to alert others?"

Chu Xiong, clutching his shattered knee, which was covered in blood, looked up at Chen Wang with surprise in his eyes.

Chen Wang sneered, "Go ahead and shout. Even if you shout until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you."

Chu Xiong exclaimed, "Who exactly are you, and why are you making trouble for me?"

Why should I make things difficult for you?

Chen Wang approached him and placed one foot directly on his ankle.

With a bang, his ankle shattered into pieces, deformed from being stepped on, and the bone protruded.

Chu Xiong's face changed color instantly.

"You son of a bitch! You're a bastard who gave birth to a son without an anus!"

Chen Wang gently lifted him up.

Then he slapped him across the face, but Chen Wang controlled his strength and did not kill him.

The slap left Chu Xiong dazed, seeing stars, and his speech was slurred.

He suddenly spat out five or six teeth, looking at Chen Wang with great fear.

Chen Wang said, "Before I saw you earlier, I said that if I caught you, you son of a bitch, I would skin you alive!"

"I'm a man of my word, I don't even lie to myself."

Chu Xiong was so frightened that he immediately wet his pants.

He was a demonized figure, but he hadn't undergone any real training and his mind wasn't strong. At this moment, he was urinating and defecating in his pants, terrified, tears streaming down his face.

"What exactly do you want to ask? Just ask, ask away!"

Chen Wang said impatiently, "I'm asking you a damn stupid question!"

Then he placed his finger on Chu Xiong's forehead, and Chu Xiong immediately became unable to move.

He suddenly felt a sharp pain on his scalp, as if someone had ripped it open. His eyes immediately turned bloodshot, and he was so frightened that he urinated even more.

Chen Wang frowned and involuntarily took a few steps back.

"That's disgusting."

He said it with a hint of disdain.

For some reason, Chu Xiong felt a sense of relief at being disliked by him.

I had this thought that since I'm so disgusting, maybe he won't skin me alive.

But then the young master in front of him said disdainfully, "It wouldn't be that hard to skin you alive."

Chu Xiong was a ruthless and insane demon who betrayed the human race. He had harmed countless people in order to raise that little ghost, and he never imagined that one day he would face such a terrifying situation.

Chu Xiong shouted, "I am a member of the Sky Demon Alliance. I can take you to the Sky Demon Alliance's superior. Sir, I can defect to the enemy. I can betray them. I can tell you about the Sky Demon Alliance. Don't worry about what happened today!"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow; they were indeed from the Sky Demon Alliance.

"Are you a monster?" Chen Wang asked.

"No, I am a demon. I was blessed by the Upper Envoy —no, I was infected. They turned me into a half-human, half-demon being, and I do things for them every day."

He wanted to use this opportunity to speak to prolong his life.

Chen Wang raised his hand,

"Alright, alright, stop talking."

Then they'd skin him alive.

Chu Xiong hurriedly said excitedly, "Young master, don't worry, I really know a lot of information, I can tell you everything!"

Chen Wang nodded.

"Alright, let's talk as we go."

Chu Xiong: "..."

Where did this Living Yama come from?!

He never imagined that he, who had always committed numerous evils and killed countless people, whose internal organs were ripped out to feed this little devil, would be skinned alive today for ruining someone else's good deed.

Several thin threads flew out from Chen Wang's fingers. His Law Technique was incredibly powerful. These threads, like Red Snake, wrapped around Chu Xiong's body, and an extremely shrill scream echoed through the inn.

He reeked of blood, a scent that even a cultivator like Chen Wang could immediately detect.

I wonder how many people would have to be killed to generate this kind of resentment.

Martial artists might find it hard to distinguish, but for a cultivator like him, it was far too clear.

He had already set up soundproofing in the courtyard, so no sound could get out.

Soon, Chu Xiong died tragically, leaving behind a human skin on the ground. His soul was also extracted and left in a daze.

They were so scared they almost lost their souls.

Chen Wang directly searched the soul, and the soul emitted that shrill cry, as if hot oil had been poured on it.

Chen Wang learned about Chu Xiong's life and his contact.

His contact was a man in a black robe, whom he referred to as the Upper Envoy.

The location was a coffin shop.

It was this man in black robes who infected him with that special Yao Qi back then.

"Do the demons of the Sky Demon Alliance possess such methods to infect others?"

"Or does it have to be a special person, or is there some kind of ritual I don't know about?"

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The demon Chu Xiong's real purpose in coming here this time is to do things for the Sky Demon Alliance, to seize the Xu Family's wealth, and to gradually control the Xu Family.

"So it was Xu the Second and his gang who did it."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. Such a person was malicious and did not hesitate to collude with the Sky Demon Alliance. He was truly despicable.

"Chen's Coffin Shop... Now that this place exists, things are much easier. Let's wipe them out in one fell swoop."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

He wasn't in a hurry; according to Chu Xiong's memory, there were still three days until the day they made contact.

At this moment, there was a beautiful and charming woman waiting for him at the Xu Family.

Chen Wang was somewhat curious about the Heavenly Sky Demon Alliance Sky Demon Alliance, and perhaps through this opportunity he could gain a deeper understanding of it.

Then, with a light tap of his finger, the human skin, along with Chu Xiong's corpse, was burned to ashes and vanished completely.

Chen Wang was incredibly skilled at murder to silence witnesses and destroy evidence.

It has become an instinct ingrained in my bones.

At this moment, the little devil trembled in the void, the aura emanating from Chen Wang was too overwhelming for it.

"Tell me, you're so ugly, with a big belly and a thin neck, you're awful!"

Chen Wang cursed.

This brat is of little value to him, but he can learn that there is a type of demon in the Sky Demon Alliance that can control Yin Ghosts.

Chen Wang read the little devil's memories, but they were a chaotic mess with nothing in them. He then pinched them with his hand and dissolved them.

A demon from the Sky Demon Alliance, capable of cursing and killing martial artists at the Meridian Opening Realm, was easily killed by him, his skin even peeled off.

Their ruthless methods make it impossible to tell who the true members of the Sky Demon Alliance are.

Chen Wang then drifted away and returned to the Xu Family.

At this moment, Madam Xu tightly gripped the Green Ox Sword in the room.

The Green Ox Sword had been activated by Chen Wang, and a faint Sword Qi swirled around it. Madam Xu felt that the temperature around her body was a little low, but she didn't know where it came from.

When Chen Wang pushed open the door and came in, she was startled for a moment, but breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that it was Chen Wang.

Chen Wang said, "It's alright, it's resolved."

Madam Xu asked in surprise, "Resolved?"

Chen Wang nodded.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to tell Madam Xu everything that had happened that day, including how the second master of the Xu Family and Zhang Shi had plotted to harm her.

Madam Xu's face immediately darkened. "So it was him who did it."

Chen Wang said, "Don't you doubt whether what I'm saying is true or false?"

Madam Xu moment, then said reproachfully, "Why are you saying such things? I certainly trust you."

"I'm not unaware that the second brother has been trying to take over my business all these years, but I've always been more accommodating. I never expected him to actually try to kill me."

Chen Wang thought for a moment and said, "What do you plan to do?"

Although Madam Xu was a woman and was somewhat frightened by the supernatural events she had witnessed, she was usually very calm and composed, having traveled extensively and experienced many things.

At this moment, she pondered and said, "This matter cannot be reported to the authorities. If the fact that he colluded with the Sky Demon Alliance is exposed, not only him, but the entire Xu Family will be dragged into the abyss."

"I originally wanted to win over the elders in the Lineage and keep a firm grip on the business, but I never expected them to resort to such methods."

"He's dishonest in business, so we'll find another pretext to report him to the authorities, arrest him on another charge, and throw him in jail."

"Zhang Decai is a wicked man. We can accuse him of colluding with bandits. I will find someone to gather evidence and give him some money. Once this matter is settled, we can get rid of the three of them."

Chen Wang was taken aback for a moment, Madam Xu said, "What's wrong? Do you think I'm too ruthless?"

Then she sighed softly, "I'm just a woman, if I'm not ruthless, I won't be able to stand firm. Those three have murderous intentions, if they stay, they'll only cause trouble sooner or later."

Chen Wang snapped out of his daze and shook his head. "No, no, no, why make it so complicated? I'll just kill the three of them, bury them somewhere, or burn them to ashes. Nobody will know, and that'll be the end of it."

Madam Xu: "..."

It's not that you think I'm too ruthless, but rather that you think I'm too slow.

She said in a deep voice, "This matter will likely alarm the government. The constables and officers of the government are not to be trifled with, especially since it disappeared suddenly. They will think that it was caused by a demon, which could easily become a ghost case and attract the attention of the Demon Suppression Division."

Chen Wang laughed and said, "Isn't that simple? When they leave, I'll find a chance to take care of the three of them, Orthodox God no one will know."

He said it dismissively.

Killing these three people was like crushing three ants to him; why would he need to use his brain? He just killed them outright.

Madam Xu was astonished upon hearing this.
