"Whoosh!"
Luo Sang sat up abruptly on the bed. His body was drenched in sweat, and his eyes were filled with fear. His hands trembled, and he subconsciously touched his face.
"Damn it! It's this dream again! " He could not help but curse softly. Although he did not feel any emotions in the dream, after he woke up, the extreme terror and fear caused his entire body to tremble uncontrollably.
He wiped his face forcefully and pressed his eyes shut. He tried his best to calm himself down. However, his racing heart could not slow down no matter what. More and more cold sweat seeped out of his forehead. Then, it drenched his clothes and flowed down his cheeks, chin, neck, and even down his back.
"Medicine … Medicine …" He hastily crawled off the bed, trembling. With trembling hands, he rummaged through the bedside table for some medicine that could suppress his racing heart.
His name was Luo Sang. He was the son of an ordinary manor master. If there were no accidents, he would inherit his father Luo Di's manor peacefully and peacefully. He would continue to live an ordinary life until he died of old age.
Such a life was uncountable in the current peaceful country.
The Eastern He Empire he belonged to was extremely huge. Although it was decaying, it was still as stable as a mountain. Large groups of nobles and merchants firmly controlled the authority of the upper echelons of the empire, but they did not overly exploit the lower echelons. The empire had just passed the peak of its glory, and it was slowly slipping.
Due to its stability, the upper echelons pursued more material comforts. This caused many merchants to begin trading with another similarly huge empire in the east. New manors appeared at the borders as well. The combination of the east and the west formed a unique place.
Twenty years ago, Luo Sang's father, Luo Di, established a huge farm here that belonged to him.
Now, this place had become a bustling area known as Sunset County.
With trembling hands, Luo Sang fished out a slender silver bottle from the bedside table. It contained a special medicine. He clutched the bottle tightly, but he did not open it and drink it immediately.
Recently, the nightmares appeared more and more frequently. They almost pushed him to the brink of collapse.
'I have these terrifying nightmares every night. Sometimes, I'll even fall into nightmares when I'm taking afternoon naps … I've had enough of these days!'
An indescribable rage surged from the depths of his heart. A surge of energy surged out of his body, and he flung the silver bottle in his hand.
Bang!
The silver bottle bounced off a nearby stone wall and rolled a few times on the ground. The cork at the mouth of the bottle had been knocked off, and a faint red liquid flowed out, seeping into the pale yellow soil.
"Die! I'd rather die than live like this. If I die, I won't have nightmares anymore. If I die, I won't have to be afraid anymore. I won't have to be pressured by my father anymore. "Deep in his heart, a thought of abandoning himself to despair kept surging up.
The pain in his heart grew stronger and stronger, and his breathing became more rapid.
Luo Sang could not help but recall everything he had discovered yesterday.
His father, Rody, had been preparing for twenty years to take revenge on that town. It turned out that he had never given up on returning to that terrifying place.
He had secretly made all the preparations, but he only planned to bear it alone. He didn't tell his son what he wanted to do.
Luo Sang understood.
That town, that terrifying and evil place, they would never let the two of them go. From his father's handwriting, he could tell that those evil and powerful devils had been looking for him and his father.
Father Roddy had been trying to hide him and himself.
But such concealment would eventually be exposed one day. Those evil beings would always have all sorts of ways to find the traces they left behind.
The notebook recorded a simple sequence of his father Rody's battle of wits and courage with them over the years. To avoid those beings, Rody had painstakingly created more than ten substitutes. All of them had been killed.
Now, it was their turn.
From the day he discovered the notebook, Luo Sang gradually confirmed that his father's covert actions were true. Moreover, he started having more and more nightmares, and they were all the same nightmare.
He understood in his heart that he could no longer hide from this. They had been hiding for twenty years. In the end, they still had to face this fated ending.
He could not imagine what he and his father were going to use to fight against that evil town.
Bows? Torches? Or poison? Over the years, his father had tried many ways and means.
Fire could not kill them. Swords and knives could not even get close to them. Bows and crossbows had no effect on them. Only the poison had a slight effect, but the monsters were too strong. The poison that could kill people was only able to slow down their reaction speed.
'Perhaps it's not a bad idea to die like this …'
Luo Sang fell to the ground from his bed. He clutched his chest. His consciousness gradually became calm and relieved.
If he had a choice, he would rather die of a heart attack. He would not die in the hands of those monsters.
Moonlight shone in through the square window. It shone on Luo Sang's pale face.
This thin and painful young man should have been terrified and pained by the pain in his heart. However, at this moment, he was strangely serene and peaceful.
"Hiss …"
Suddenly, a thin gray crack appeared on the back of Luo Sang's neck. A red dot flew out from the crack and sank into the back of Luo Sang's head.
Luo Sang's narrowed eyes widened abruptly. His blue pupils contracted slightly, and then they widened. Red threads of blood started spreading from his pupils to the whites of his eyes.
They did not spread quickly. In a few minutes, they completely occupied his eyes.
"Whoosh!"
His body arched downward. Then, he bounced back and returned to his original state.
"Ugh …" Luo Sang blinked. He slowly withdrew his hand from his chest.
'This body … is a little strange.' At this moment, Luo Sang, or rather, Lu Sheng, rubbed the skin around his heart with a strange expression.
Waves of pain surged throughout his body like a tidal wave.
'Muscle spasms. Temporary shock? It should be a nerve problem. I'll be fine after adjusting the nerves. 'Lu Sheng spread his spirit. He slowly soothed the spasming muscle.
The pain in his heart slowly faded and disappeared.
For a Divine Lord's spirit that could deceive reality, faking some nerve signals was nothing.
Lu Sheng straightened his body again. He closed his eyes and started absorbing the memories hidden in this identity.
'Luo Sang? Town? Avenger? ' Strange scenes kept replaying in his mind. As his memories flowed back, Lu Sheng's expression grew stranger.
'Interesting … This place …' He could feel his main body curled up in the depths of his heart. It was restrained by an incredibly vast and complicated power of the Rules. It could not leave this body.
As he followed this restraining power, he immediately discovered that the Rules of this place were completely different from the Rules of Great Yin and the other few worlds.
'I'm greatly suppressed … But that's alright. I'll just need some time to adjust. As usual, unless it's necessary, I won't use my main body. Let's take a look at this Luo Sang's karma … 'Lu Sheng closed his eyes again.
The bedroom fell completely silent.
After a dozen breaths, he opened his eyes again.
'Don't let the tragedy repeat itself? Also, destroy the town … 'These two karmas were Lu Sheng's main objective for coming here.
'Let me sort this out …' Lu Sheng stood up. He walked to the window and pushed it open. It was damp outside. Cold air gushed in.
The cold air hit his face. It immediately energized him.
'Luo Sang and his son, Luo Di, were persecuted 20 years ago. They fled the town. Luo Sang's mother died in the town. His grandparents died in the town as well. Even though the father and son managed to escape, their bodies were still affected by the town to varying degrees. Every once in a while, the mysterious town's monsters would catch up to them and try to kill them. All these years, they relied on Luo Sang's father, Luo Di. He used all sorts of methods to hide. According to Luo Di's notes, it seems like no one in this world can stop the monsters from the town. So, here's the question. What are these monsters from the town? '
From Luo Sang's memories, this world was a world of cold weapons. The most powerful weapons were known to be bows and crossbows. However, even these were controlled products among the common people. Apart from the military, anyone who used them would die.
Luo Sang's father, Luo Di, had secretly obtained a few crossbows to fight against the monsters. If word of this got out, he would be beheaded.
Lu Sheng opened his wardrobe and took out a long gray robe with a hood. It looked like a windbreaker. There was a coarse cloth rope tied around his waist, which he used as a belt.
After putting on his clothes, he opened the door and walked out.
Directly outside the door was a spacious square courtyard. Two fat aunties with thick waists and buttocks were sitting on small stools in the courtyard, peeling potatoes while whispering to each other.
They wore big gray dresses and white headscarves. Spittle flew everywhere as they talked, but the knives in their hands kept peeling the potatoes.
After Lu Sheng walked out, the two aunties waved at him.
"Little Sang, you're up?"
"The butter mashed potatoes are ready. It's on the table in the living room. Go eat it yourself."
Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. Then, he walked toward the living room based on his memories.
As he walked, he tried to gather the Spirit Qi in the air. Unfortunately, it was to no avail. There seemed to be only pure gas in the air. There was no special energy.
Then, Lu Sheng switched to another method. He tried to extract Essential Qi and Spiritual Essence from his body. This was a Method of the Great Yin.
It worked this time, but it was not obvious. It was still slow, and not very efficient.
The third was to extract Spirit Power. Everything had Spirit Power. Extracting a bit of Spirit Power from life force. Lu Sheng tried it. It worked, but it was far less efficient than the Spirit Power World. It was even less efficient than the Muyun World.
As he tried, Lu Sheng followed his instincts without realizing it. He walked into a courtyard filled with purple flower-like grass.
The father of this body, Luo Di, was wearing tight black clothes. He was practicing basic knife techniques in the middle of the courtyard.
He used a silver knife as long as a forearm. There was no pattern to his knife techniques. Each move was continuous, powerful, and vicious. There was even a hint of blood and cruelty in it.
"Ah Sang, you're up? It's rare for you to wake up so early. " The muscular man quickly finished practicing a set of saber techniques. After he finished, he noticed Lu Sheng, who was standing at the side, and immediately asked warmly.
