"It seems that I haven't been back in a long time …"
A massive castle stood in front of Chen Heng.
Looking at this massive castle, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he lightly sighed.
This place was none other than the Doyle Family's castle.
On this continent, the Doyle family's faction was very powerful, and the territory they occupied was very large.
Chen Heng's grandfather, Griffin, even had the title of Duke, and he was quite famous among both mortals and Sorcerers.
As the Doyle family's base, it could be imagined just how big this castle was.
It was incredibly big.
However, even though it was big, the aura it gave off made people dislike it.
Chen Heng could sense that the castle was filled with disgusting mental impurities, and he could faintly hear the cries of many people, as well as the roars of death.
If one lived in such a place for a long time, even a normal person would become mentally perverted.
This was caused by researching negative energy for a long time.
Too many people had died here, and they had been cruelly treated by Griffin when they were alive. Their bodies had given birth to dense negative energy, which had formed marks here.
After a long period of time, impurities were formed and lingered in this place.
This sort of aura made Chen Heng feel quite uncomfortable.
In the past, there had been similar situations in the Hunter's House, but they had not been as severe.
Apart from the true Sorcerers who researched negative energy, there were not many people who researched this. As such, apart from a few places, most of the places were quite normal.
There were no such terrifying mental impurities.
However, because of his past experiences, Chen Heng was used to this.
Looking at the familiar castle in front of him, his expression was calm as he walked into it.
"Young master Ed."
After walking into the castle, the Doyle family's people were already waiting inside.
A middle-aged man wearing a black robe stood there respectfully, waiting for Chen Heng to arrive.
Seeing Chen Heng walk in, he hurriedly walked over to Chen Heng's side.
"Please come with me."
His expression was respectful as he led the way for Chen Heng.
In response, Chen Heng did not say anything and only calmly nodded without much reaction.
This was the norm in this castle.
Under the influence of Griffin in the past, most of the people living in this castle were very indifferent. Their temperaments were also somewhat gloomy, giving off a very cold feeling.
Compared to the people around him, Chen Heng's performance was quite normal.
As Chen Heng watched on, the middle-aged man slowly walked forwards.
Finally, he brought Chen Heng to a room.
"Lord Griffin is resting inside."
Standing outside the room, the middle-aged man said respectfully. He didn't go any further and only said that.
"Alright."
Chen Heng nodded.
Without much hesitation, he strode forward and walked inside.
Walking into the room, a strong smell wafted in from all directions.
It was a strong smell of medicine, and it seemed to be mixed with the smell of blood, giving people a very disgusting feeling.
Hearing this smell, Chen Heng instinctively frowned and felt like vomiting.
Walking into the room, there was a big bed in the room.
At the head of the bed, an old man was lying alone. At this moment, he seemed to be in a deep sleep and appeared very calm.
It was this body's grandfather, the Doyle family's Chief, Griffin.
At this moment, he was sleeping alone on the bed. It seemed that there was something wrong with his body.
Chen Heng walked to the bed by himself and looked at Griffin lying on the headboard.
Under his gaze, Griffin's current appearance was revealed.
His face was very pale, and his body gave off a strange smell. It was like the smell of blood, but it was also different.
A strange mental ripple appeared from his body, causing Chen Heng to frown.
"What a chaotic feeling …"
Looking at Griffin and sensing those chaotic mental ripples, Chen Heng could not help but frown, not knowing what to say.
Griffin's mental ripple was indeed quite chaotic, and it even gave off a somewhat deranged feeling.
It did not give off a good feeling.
Sensing Griffin's mental ripple, Chen Heng felt a bad premonition.
Ordinarily speaking, ordinary people's mental ripples were quite stable, and this was the case even for Sorcerers.
Once one's mind became unstable, it meant that one's emotions were greatly fluctuating, or one's personality had become twisted.
From what Chen Heng could sense, Griffin's mental state was like this. For some reason, he had suddenly fallen into a state of madness.
Judging from the way he was convulsing, something must have happened to his spirit, leading to this result.
Standing in front of the bed, Chen Heng noticed that there were many dried bloodstains around the room.
These bloodstains had already dried up, but some were still quite fresh.
If one looked carefully, one could even find a lot of flesh and blood residue in every corner of the place.
A strange stench of blood spread out.
Looking at those corners, Chen Heng sank into his thoughts and could not help but feel a bit dazed.
A large hand suddenly stretched out. It looked quite withered and skinny, looking like a bag of bones.
On the bed, Griffin had suddenly sat up, a bloodthirsty and twisted expression on his face. His body gave off chaotic magic energy ripples as he stretched out a hand towards Chen Heng's body.
This attack was very powerful, and he did not hold back at all. It seemed that he wanted to tear Chen Heng in half.
However, at that moment, magic energy ripples appeared.
A barrier that had been set up long ago appeared around Chen Heng's body, blocking Griffin's hand and making it so that it could not even touch Chen Heng's body.
A long sigh sounded out from Chen Heng's body.
Sensing the disturbance, Chen Heng lightly sighed and stretched out his hand, silently grabbing Griffin's outstretched hand and pressing it down.
The power from Griffin's arm was very powerful, and it could rival that of a Great Knight's.
It was just that under Chen Heng's pressure, this arm seemed incredibly weak and was pressed down.
"It's already come to this?"
Looking at Griffin lying on the bed with a twisted and terrifying expression, Chen Heng sighed as many thoughts flashed through his mind.
There was no doubt that there was something wrong with Griffin's mind and that he had fallen into madness.
Before this, there were probably many people who had fallen into his hands and were directly torn apart by his hands.
"You … deserve to die!"
In front of him, Griffin's voice sounded out, accompanied by a low roar.
