Li Fei did not leave with Jiang He.
Instead, he stayed behind to report on his work.
After reporting on the casualties at his farm and the farms next door, Li Fei wiped the cold sweat off his forehead in lingering fear, saying somberly, "It's fortunate that Jiang He rushed to help at once. Otherwise, if the dozen Ferals and Killer Star were to go on a rampage, it wouldn't just be the farms on the mountain — all of Jinyintan Village would be in trouble."
Soon, everyone in the Martial Arts Department (MAD) got busy.
Every town and village near Lingzhou City was attacked by Ferals, with the final count reaching 3,400 dead and over 2,000 injured. Therefore, the aftermath must be handled appropriately.
Since the MAD was lacking manpower, Duan Tianhe mobilized the local public security department at once.
All at once, everyone in Lingzhou City panicked. Hence, Duan Tianhe called for another emergency meeting and contacted the local government and real estate developers, preparing to move every village as soon as possible.
Still, Duan Tianhe was busy all over the place until daybreak before returning to his office.
Taking a sip of the cold tea he had last night, Duan Tianhe picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Where's Bai Feifei? Did you bring back Killer Star's corpse? "
Soon.
Bai Feifei entered.
Her figure was a little ragged, and her tight-fitting leather clothes were stained with blood and scratches.
"Chief …"
"Killer Star's corpse … is gone!"
There was a look of fear in Bai Feifei's eyes as she seethed, "It's not just Killer Star's corpse. The corpses of the livestock and the dozen Ferals in the farms to the east of Jinyintan Village are all gone too!"
"What?"
Duan Tianhe's expression changed and he promptly dialed another number. But before he could say a word, an urgent voice could be heard from the other end. "Chief Duan, something's wrong!"
…
Around thirty miles east of Jinyintan Village, there was a ravine that was over a dozen meters deep, winding and stretching into the distance.
It was a common sight on the loess highlands.
The soil of the Huangtu Plateau was soft, and there were many mountains. Once a flash flood broke out on the mountains, the water would converge and wash away a lot of soil. After decades, hundreds, or even thousands of years, ravines would be formed.
Such a place was deserted in the first place, and even sheep herders were afraid that their sheep would fall into the ravine. Now that the Revival of Qi had occurred, there was even less of them.
At this moment, a woman was standing beside the ravine.
She looked to be in her thirties, and had on heavy, almost frighteningly smoky makeup. She had short hair and was wearing the same tight black leather jacket that Bai Feifei was wearing. The only difference was …
Bai Feifei put on the tight-fitting leather clothes and felt as if they were going to burst.
On the other hand, Mu Wanqiu's chest was so broad after she put on her leather clothes that it was comparable to Mu Wanqiu's before she ate Jiang He's corn.
The girl's gaze was directed towards the direction of the ravine, and she smiled. Her voice was soft and sounded like a lolita as she asked, "Is that where that useless Tranquil Heavenly General was hiding if we follow this ravine?"
There were three figures behind her.
The three of them had powerful auras. Two of them were grade-seven Martial Dao Grandmasters, and the last one was a Fire-type Awakened who was comparable to a grade-seven Martial Dao Grandmaster.
Three Heavenly Generals of the Sky Demon Cult.
However, at this moment, the three of them did not even dare to breathe loudly.
He didn't dare to say it.
If he were to say the wrong thing and become unhappy, he might be turned into a corpse puppet. Who could he reason with then?
"Boring!"
The girl snorted coldly and cursed, before suddenly giggling. "It's lucky that Killer Star is here to keep me company and relieve my boredom."
All three of them felt their scalps go numb, and they became strangely horrified.
… …
"It's still early in the morning. Why don't you let me sleep?"
Jiang He was half-asleep when he heard someone knocking on his car window. He promptly opened the door and got out, rubbing his bleary eyes. Before he could see who it was, he heard a yell —
"Ah!"
"Pervert!"
"…"
Jiang He was instantly wide awake. Looking at Wang Siyu, who was covering her eyes but could not help glancing at him through the gaps between her fingers, he was at a loss for words. "What are you doing? I'm wearing clothes. How am I a pervert … hmmm! "
Jiang He only came to a realization halfway through his words. Clutching a certain part of his body, he laughed out loud to hide his awkwardness and said, "Well … the cultivation method I cultivate is of extreme yang and vigorous vigor. It's reasonable for me to have such a reaction every morning, so you don't have to be shy."
I …
Bleh!
Wang Siyu was speechless.
What do you mean I don't have to be shy?
Shouldn't you be the one feeling embarrassed in such a situation?
Wang Siyu turned and stopped looking at Jiang He. Her cheeks were now bright red, and she put her hand over her heart, feeling her heartbeat quicken. How could it be so big?
Still, Wang Siyu knew that now was not the time to be concerned about size and length. She turned her back to Jiang He and said, "Jiang He, Killer Star's corpse … is gone."
"What?"
Jiang He's face twitched. He did not even bother to wash up, and drove straight to the farm.
There were many people gathered at the farm.
There were the families of the deceased, as well as the leaders of the village and town, as well as the police.
Jiang He crossed the cordon line and went straight to the spot where Killer Star's corpse was buried. He looked at the hole in the grave and lamented, "I said I would visit Killer Star's grave on this day next year. Wouldn't I be going back on my word now that his corpse is gone?"
Still …
He saw a shoe next to the hole.
Jiang He relaxed considerably at once and smiled. "A shoe? Not bad. Not bad. If I bury this shoe, it can be a cenotaph! "
Li Fei, who was walking up to him, slipped and almost fell to the ground when he heard those words.
Bro …
Is that what you're focusing on?
Li Fei pointed at the grave that he had piled up with his forklift and said, "Old Jiang, the forensics team and some veteran police officers have examined it. Killer Star must have dug this hole himself, which means he climbed up from below."
Jiang He frowned and muttered, "Climbed up himself? Could Killer Star not be dead? No, that's not right. My sword had pierced the left side of his chest where his heart was, and I could even see his shattered heart. That's why a melodramatic plot like his heart being on the right side wouldn't happen. How could a dead man like him come back to life? "
Li Fei then added, "It's not just Killer Star's corpse that's gone missing. All the cows, goats, and Ferals with relatively intact corpses are gone as well. I've contacted Chief Duan, and similar things have happened in other towns and villages."
Pausing, Li Fei then said somberly, "The higher-ups suspect that it's a special Awakened power that could control corpses!"
