Chapter 140: The Twist of Human Nature
The quiet Dan Workshop was not dark, but the long hallway felt very lonely.
Inside the hallway, Yun Yi walked forward step by step, with a faint smile on his lips. He looked like a Death God walking in the darkness, ready to take lives.
Up ahead, there were two men in black standing at the corner of the hallway. When they saw Yun Yi come out, they smiled at him and said, "Hello, Young Master Yun."
Now, everyone in the Dan Workshop knew that Yun Yi was a favorite of Pan Hong, a Medicine Pill Master even more powerful than the Chief Steward. With their identities and positions, they naturally did not dare to show any disrespect, and inside, they hoped to form a connection with Yun Yi.
The smile on Yun Yi’s face did not fade. Suddenly, his hands, which were behind his back, shot out and grabbed the necks of the two men in black.
"Young Master Yun, what are you doing?"
One person’s expression changed, not understanding why Yun Yi suddenly attacked them.
"I am sending you on your way."
After Yun Yi said this, he used his hands with force, and with two cracking sounds, the necks of the two men in black were broken, hanging to the side. Yun Yi casually tossed them aside, throwing them on the ground.
"Black Wind, attack."
Yun Yi waved his hand forward, and Black Wind immediately spread its wings and flew ahead.
After about ten minutes, Yun Yi walked out of the back door of the Dan Workshop, with Black Wind crouching on his shoulder, twitching its ears.
Yun Yi turned around and closed the big door of the Dan Workshop, completely blocking the bloody air inside.
At this moment, the Dan Workshop had become a hellish scene, with bodies lying everywhere, blood flowing all around, and everyone had been killed, with no one left alive.
The moonlight was like water, making the desolation and eeriness of the environment even more pronounced.
For the men in black guarding the alchemy workshop, those brief ten minutes felt like doomsday; the workshop, which everyone longed for, had become a hell on earth.
Exiting through the back door of the workshop led directly into the City Master’s mansion; it served as a special pathway to the side door of the mansion.
At that moment, by the side door of the City Master’s mansion, a strong man at the seventh grade of the Innate Realm was waiting. Upon seeing Yun Yi arrive, the man came forward and respectfully said to Yun Yi, "You must be brother Yun Yi. The City Lord asked me to wait here for you and the Chief Steward to take you directly to the back mountain."
"Alright."
Yun Yi nodded.
"Where is the Chief Steward? Why isn’t he with you?"
The strong man asked.
"The Chief Steward suddenly found inspiration for refining pills and is still in the workshop studying them. He will come over by himself later. I’ll go on my own since I have the Evil Spirit Pill; it doesn’t matter if the Chief Steward comes or not."
Yun Yi said.
"That is true, Young Master Yun, please."
The strong man wore a wide smile, not daring to slight Yun Yi in any way.
Walking from the side door of the City Master’s mansion to the back door, right next to it was the back mountain. This path crossed an open square, and at this moment, the square was packed with people, countless figures in black surrounding nine hundred and ninety-nine young girls in the center.
"Run, hurry up."
Someone shouted loudly at the girls.
"Don’t kill us, please don’t kill us."
"I beg you, don’t kill us. My parents died early, and I have a young brother who needs me to take care of him."
"Please, I don’t want to die. I would work like a horse or an ox if I could."
……
The entire square was filled with the cries of young girls. Their voices expressed helplessness and despair, and they kept pleading, many of them kneeling on the ground and trembling with fear.
These girls were very young; the youngest was only eleven or twelve years old, and the oldest was only sixteen or seventeen. At that moment, they were being herded by the men in black, completely turned into lambs waiting for slaughter.
"Stop talking so much; it is your honor to contribute to the City Lord."
"Hurry up, you little brats, don’t waste time with words. If you don’t move, I’ll beat you up!"
…
The fierce men in black paid no attention to the girls’ misery. Some even found joy in their suffering, wearing happy smiles on their faces.
Some held whips, continuously hitting the girls, leaving them covered in wounds, their screams echoing everywhere.
Hell on Earth!
Horrible! Horrible! Horrible!
Sad! Sad! Sad!
Yun Yi happened to witness all of this. His smile remained unchanged, but the coldness deep in his eyes had reached its peak.
Yun Yi clenched his fists tightly, holding back his anger and stopping himself from exploding.
"How terrible! These beasts deserve to die; we should kill them all."
Black Wind was furious, and his voice, as he transmitted it to Yun Yi, was filled with endless rage.
People said demon beasts were fierce, but many of them had feelings, whereas these humans were truly heartless, inciting the anger of all.
Yun Yi silently swore that tonight, he would cleanse the City Master’s mansion with blood. He would ensure that this clear sky was no longer covered by darkness and would bring justice to this world.
"Young Master Yun, these girls are the City Lord’s sacrifices. They are being taken to the altar on the back mountain. Look at these girls; each one is a virgin. Nine hundred ninety-nine drops of virgin blood, plus the Evil Spirit Pill in Young Master Yun’s hand, will definitely make the City Lord’s powers soar and achieve great skill."
The strong man said with a smile, and in his words, he did not see those girls as people. In his eyes, thousands of girls were simply sacrifices for Pan Hong.
"Really?"
Yun Yi’s tone was calm, but inside, a storm was rising.
Human nature could become so twisted.
Nine hundred ninety-nine innocent girls made one’s heart bleed.
Yun Yi gave a look to Black Wind on his shoulder, and Black Wind understood, immediately turning into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing. The strong man’s attention was entirely on Yun Yi, so he did not notice the cat at all.
After spending so much time together, Black Wind and Yun Yi had developed a good understanding; with just a glance, Black Wind knew what Yun Yi wanted him to do.
Now the plan had changed. The City Master’s office wanted to take the girls to the back mountain early, and they had to inform the three major families immediately so that they could head straight to the back mountain.
The City Master’s office was already weak. Due to Hero Flying Tiger’s threat a few days ago, on this important day of Pan Hong’s blood sacrifice, all the power from the City Master’s office had gathered in the back mountain, completely sealing it off.
Tonight’s battlefield would not be at the City Master’s mansion, but on the back mountain.
Yun Yi followed the strong man through the square and glanced at the young girls.
"Help us, big brother, please save us."
A little girl shouted loudly at Yun Yi.
The sound of "big brother" made Yun Yi tremble all over; he lowered his head and quickly left the square, and deep within his eyes, blood began to seep out.
Some things, you would never understand the darkness of unless you experienced them.
At this moment, Yun Yi was on the edge of a rage.
