Eat This Grandpa

Chen Bin's head snapped up. Tiger Two was on all fours, charging at him like a black bolt of lightning.

At this moment, there was no trace of fear in Chen Bin's eyes. Instead of dodging, he slowly raised the long blade in his hand, his gaze as cold and piercing as a winter star in the night sky.

In the split second when Tiger Two was about to reach him, Chen Bin moved.

His left foot ghosted sideways in a swift step, his body nimbly shifting with the motion. The pitch-black blade, under the sunlight, faintly shimmered with a layer of mysterious golden light. In that instant, it fell, carrying boundless power.

Tiger Two, his body wreathed in thick red demonic aura, couldn't even see the lethal strike coming, let alone react. The blade cleaved him in two at the waist.

Tiger Two felt his limbs suddenly go numb. His body lost balance midair, and before he could adjust, he crashed heavily to the ground, severed in two.

Only then did the searing pain surge through him like a tidal wave.

Ao...

Tiger Two's agonized howl tore through the sky like a sharp blade, echoing all around, startling flocks of birds into flight.

[Killed Qi Gathering Realm Tiger Demon (Tiger Two). Gained 14 merit points. Remaining merit: 640]

Tiger One, who had been about to charge forward, abruptly halted mid-step. A flash of fear crossed his face.

I'm injured now. I'm definitely no match for this brat.

I have to flee. Run back and find Father King.

Father King only has me left as his son now.

He won't bear to kill me.

Kang Ronghao, who had been preparing to escape, froze at the sound of the howl. He turned back and saw Tiger Two dead.

Suddenly, a wild glee flickered in his eyes. He shouted, "Chen Bin, I order you to kill Tiger One!"

Chen Bin's lips curled slightly into a meaningful smile. He walked toward him slowly, blade in hand.

"What are you doing?" Kang Ronghao's voice carried a hint of panic.

"My brother-in-law is a Commander in the City Guard Division, a Pulse Opening Realm expert.

If you kill me, you'll die too."

Chen Bin stared at him, his gaze hardening. The pent-up emotions could no longer be contained.

He suddenly raised his hand and flung the blade. It shot out like a black meteor, burying itself precisely in Kang Ronghao's heart.

[Killed Qi Gathering Realm (Zhongwan) Martial Artist. Gained 14 merit points. Remaining merit: 654]

A sneer of mockery curled at the corner of Chen Bin's mouth. "Your brother-in-law will be joining you soon."

Chen Bin looked up sharply. Tiger One's eyes were filled with terror as he turned and fled desperately toward South Mountain.

Chen Bin stepped out with his right foot, his body shooting forward like an arrow loosed from a bowstring.

In three breaths, he reached Kang Ronghao's corpse and yanked the blade from his heart.

In just five more breaths, Chen Bin had caught up to Tiger One like a phantom.

The Demon Suppression Blade in his hand swung easily, cutting through Tiger One's protective demonic aura and leaving gruesome wounds across his body.

"Damn it! If you're not going to kill me, why toy with me!" Tiger One roared in fury, his voice thick with resentment.

Chen Bin stood with his blade raised, pointing it straight at Tiger One. He said coldly, "Do you want to die, or do you want to live?"

"You're asking for death!" Tiger One had never suffered such humiliation. Baring his fangs, he lunged forward, claws outstretched.

Chen Bin's form flickered. He executed the Five Elements Plum Blossom Step from the Ten Perfect Steps, his body shifting like a ghost. Then, sidestepping, he kicked out.

Tiger One's massive frame was sent tumbling uncontrollably to the ground.

"You... bastard!" Tiger One struggled to flip over and pounce, but a cold blade was already pressed against his neck.

The icy touch, combined with the constant drain of blood and demonic aura, made Tiger One feel his body growing cold.

For the first time, he truly felt that he might die here.

Chen Bin toyed with the blade, slowly moving it across Tiger One's tiger head. "Don't you Demon Race eat humans to boost your demonic aura and heal your wounds?"

"What are you planning?"

"Eat those people. I'll let you go, and you can heal your injuries."

Tiger One, being intelligent enough, instantly understood Chen Bin's intent.

"You want to destroy the evidence of murder."

A cold glint flashed in Chen Bin's eyes. He stabbed down fiercely, driving the blade through Tiger One's paw and pinning him to the ground.

Tiger One snarled at Chen Bin in rage, but Chen Bin kicked him hard in the head.

Tiger One's massive body, a full zhang in length, was flipped over by the sheer force. But because the blade pinned him down, he couldn't be sent flying—only crashing heavily to the ground.

Tiger One coughed up mouthfuls of blood. The wound on his chest split open again, blood gushing out.

I'm going to die. I'm going to die.

"I'll eat." Tiger One gritted his teeth, forcing the words out from between them.

"Go tear at those wounds," Chen Bin ordered coldly.

Chen Bin simply watched in silence as Tiger One hoisted the headless corpse, tore into the neck wound with great gulps, and swallowed the heads one by one like dumplings.

As he ate, he digested, transforming the flesh into pure demonic qi to mend his injuries.

Finally, Chen Bin looked toward Kang Ronghao's corpse. "Dig a hole in his chest, then rip out his heart."

Tiger One's eyes flickered with a flash of greed as he stared at Kang Ronghao's body.

A human corpse at the Qi Gathering Realm—just like his own kind.

If he ate this one, his wounds would nearly heal.

"Why bother with all that trouble? I'll just eat him whole."

With that, Tiger One stuffed Kang Ronghao's corpse into his mouth in one go and crunched it down.

That surge of pure energy made Tiger One's body tremble.

Chen Bin watched quietly as Tiger One chewed and swallowed the corpse, the two of them standing barely an arm's length apart.

In that instant, Tiger One spun around and lunged, claws bared.

A black arc of light sliced through the air, gleaming with a biting chill.

Chen Bin's face still held that faint smile as he raised his blade and sneered, "With brains like that, you think you can turn the tables on me?"

Tiger One's brawny arm, mid-swipe, dropped to the ground.

"ROAR!" In that moment, the Tiger Demon's agonized howl shook heaven and earth.

Then, Tiger One felt the world spin, a deafening rumble echoing in his ears, before his consciousness sank into endless darkness.

[Killed Qi Gathering Realm Tiger Demon (Tiger One). Gained 17 merit points. Remaining merit: 671]

Chen Bin lightly flicked the blade that had severed Tiger One's head. Beads of blood splattered to the ground in a neat line, and he slowly slid the Demon Suppression Blade back into its sheath.

He turned slowly, gazing at the corpses strewn across the ground, a wave of melancholy rising in his heart.

What should he do with them?

Just then, he faintly heard the rapid clatter of hooves in the distance.

Looking up, he saw a group of people in Demon Suppression Division uniforms racing toward him.

Focusing his gaze, he recognized the leader as Liu Wei.

"Captain Chen?"

Liu Wei yanked hard on the reins. His steed let out a long neigh, rearing up with its front hooves high before landing steadily.

"Banner Officer Liu!"

Chen Bin pressed his hand on the hilt of his blade.

His aura surged like crashing waves, then slowly receded.
