Kill! Kill Them All!

Looking at the suddenly impassioned Second Young Master Hu, Lu Bai suddenly realized, "No wonder we haven't encountered Reincarnated Demon along the way; it turns out you deliberately made them all hide."

"That's right!"

Second Young Master Hu proudly puffed out his chest.

Upon hearing this reply, Lu Bai's smile faded, and he calmly said, "Then you're useless."

As he spoke, he raised his left arm.

"Etc!"

Seeing the Great Serpent Phantom form solidify again, Second Young Master Hu could no longer remain calm.

Even though Second Young Master Hu was certain that Lu Bai wanted those Reincarnated Demons, he still dared not gamble with his life after witnessing Lu Bai decisively kill Third Aunt Hu.

It took a deep breath, clearly somewhat reluctant. "What do you want?"

Lu Bai didn't care about the other party's attitude.

He smiled kindly again, reached out and stroked Second Young Master Hu's long hair, and asked gently.

"How many Reincarnated Demon do you currently control?"

"One hundred and forty-seven people are still alive."

The number of people could be verified simply by calling them over, so Second Young Master Hu naturally did not conceal the number of people.

Upon hearing this number, Lu Bai's eyes lit up.

The number of combatants captured was more than he had imagined; he had originally thought it would be just over a hundred.

He knelt down next to Second Young Master Hu, his tone becoming increasingly gentle. "Could you gather them all here?"

This tone made Second Young Master Hu somewhat uncomfortable, and he subconsciously leaned back.

"Sure, but it will take time; some are still in the county town."

Lu Bai chuckled and patted its shoulder.

"It's okay, take your time."

After a while, the first group of fighters emerged from the woods at the summons of Second Young Master Hu.

There were at least sixty or seventy people in this group, and their stiff movements indicated that they were still under control.

"They'll all be here soon."

Second Young Master Hu could probably guess Lu Bai's identity as a deathmatch fighter by now. Seeing that more and more deathmatch fighters were gathering, he finally couldn't help but ask, "You must also be one of the Reincarnated Demon, right?"

Lu Bai glanced at it and replied, seemingly unrelated, "Is there a problem?"

A large Great Serpent Phantom was pressing down on Second Young Master Hu. It twisted its body, managing to adjust itself into a more comfortable position.

"I want to know, what exactly do you want to do?"

There are many similar questions, such as why so many Reincarnated Demons have suddenly appeared, why you possess some strange abilities, and whether more Reincarnated Demon will appear in the future, etc...

But Lu Bai didn't even answer the first question before walking towards the group of death fighters in front of him.

His gaze swept across the faces of every fighter present, but he didn't see anyone he knew.

That's alright then.

He cleared his throat and said loudly, "Gentlemen, could you please cut down the trees around here?"

"?"

The deathmatchers present exchanged bewildered glances, wondering what he was up to.

Seeing this, Lu Bai sighed helplessly.

He slowly raised his right hand, which was surrounded by a hazy white light, and then countless white spikes shot out.

Puff~ Puff~ Puff~

The sound of sharp thorns piercing flesh rang out frequently.

In an instant, blood splattered.

In just ten seconds, no one in the room could remain standing; corpses lay scattered across the ground.

Second Young Master Hu: "?!"

Seeing this, the disciple of the Hu family was dumbfounded.

Its voice trembled slightly. "No, how could you..."

After listening to the mechanical prompt and confirming that the points had been credited to his account, Lu Bai shrugged.

"You're still a child, you don't understand."

At this point, he Chang Shengtian: "You see, even adults know that torture and killing are necessary to make people obey."

"Well..."

Chang Shengtian really wanted to say, "You overestimate me, I don't know either."

It struggled to its senses, its voice barely a whisper, "Then we don't have to kill them all, do we?"

That is incorrect.

Lu Bai waved his hand. "If they obey, it proves they are extremely cunning and should be killed! If they disobey, it means they have a rebellious streak and should be killed as well!"

"Power requires the unpredictability of divine authority to quickly establish rule; only when people are filled with fear can power be extended."

"Xiao Bai... you seem to be going a bit too far."

Chang Shengtian felt he had been blind to believe that Lu Bai could become the next Grandmother Wang San.

This is hardly the makings of a legendary incense master; even the most powerful evil spirits wouldn't kill like this.

Is it possible that we're fast-forwarding to the point where we'll never be able to repay the debt of incense money even in a lifetime?

"Ah!"

"Don't..."

"Spare me!"

"Aaaaaah!!!"

After a series of screams, silence fell over the mountaintop.

The mountain winds that blew by carried a nauseating, pungent smell of blood.

The blood seeped into the soil and dried, staining the ground a deep crimson.

[Bite!]

[Points +147, Current Points: 159, Current Rank: 1/273]

Lu Bai breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the dumbfounded Second Young Master Hu.

"Is this the last batch?"

"Hmm, ah... yes, yes, yes."

Second Young Master Hu seemed to wake from a dream, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Lu Bai dusted off non-existent dust from his clothes and asked leisurely, "Then let me test you."

Upon hearing this, Second Young Master Hu reacted as if to a shock, his voice becoming shrill. "No, don't kill me, I was wrong."

If it weren't for the Great Serpent Phantom pressing it down, it would probably have jumped up in fright.

"Sigh, I think you have a deep misunderstanding about me."

Lu Bai sighed for a moment, then got to the point. "I'd like to ask, how did you manage to capture so many Reincarnated Demons?"

Second Young Master Hu composed himself.

He said cautiously, "Actually, for the Four Great Sects, all the Guardian Immortal are our eyes and ears..."

The Guardian Immortal are the lowest level of deities; by analogy, they don't even qualify as neighborhood committee members. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are closer to the identity of family members.

The same applies to Guardian Immortal.

Therefore, if someone in one's family suddenly changes their temperament and one cannot find the reason, the Guardian Immortal will definitely report to its superiors for help.

When this happens frequently, it's impossible not to attract attention.

Second Young Master Hu was the first of the great immortals to take notice of this special situation.

Personnel were immediately deployed to subdue and interrogate these fighters.

"Although there are no remarkable achievements, your responsible spirit of preventing problems before they arise is still commendable."

Lu Bai patted Second Young Master Hu on the shoulder approvingly, which startled the latter and made him shudder.

This reaction wasn't actually an exaggeration. After all, in their eyes, Lu Bai's actions during this period were practically equivalent to those of a madman, completely illogical.

Even Chang Shengtian, who had followed him all the way, was now trying his best to minimize his presence, afraid of being noticed by him.

"As expected, being misunderstood is the fate of those who express themselves."

Lu Bai sighed softly.

Second Young Master Hu couldn't understand, so he could only lie on the ground and force a smile.

Lu Bai picked it up. "Then can you find more Reincarnated Demon?"

"I'm afraid that's not..."

"Hmm?" Lu Bai frowned slightly.

"... Not even worth a second glance, it's as easy as turning one's hand."
