My profession is too unique.

Chapter 46 Southwind City is doomed! [The Hunting Path]

Yuan Chenyang lowered his hand as if he had been electrocuted, which made Su Chen seem thoughtful.

"Sun Tai, take your men out first, but don't go far." His face was tense as he said in a deep voice, "Don't contact the outside world, and warn the people in the building not to go out or reveal their identities."

"Yes!"

Fatty Sun couldn't help but glance at the Shadow-Avoiding Robe, feeling uneasy, before leading Zhao Xiong and the others away.

"...How did you kill him?" Yuan Chenyang carefully lifted the Shadow Cloak, and after the full view of the metal box was revealed in front of him, his expression became even more solemn.

"Starve him first, then poison him." Su Chen said succinctly. He had now gone from settling a personal grudge to eliminating a scourge for the people, so he was naturally righteous and confident.

"You already noticed he had a problem?" Yuan Chenyang knew this kid was shrewd, so he added, "I want to hear the truth."

"There is no evidence," Su Chen said honestly. If there were evidence, he would have been severely tortured by the Ministry of Supervision long ago.

Yuan Chenyang shook his head: "I didn't find this thing. You're not going to notify me, are you?"

Su Chen pondered, "There won't be any problems on the surface, Jiang He has already divorced him."

He wouldn't inform Yuan Chenyang if he didn't find it, but so what if someone suspected he was involved in Qi Chuan's death?
Yuan Chenyang pondered for a moment, then asked, "Whom do you suspect he is working for?"

Su Chen answered without hesitation: "Zhou Xian."

Yuan Chenyang was not surprised. He carefully lifted the Shadow Cloak, and a golden glint appeared out of thin air, exploding on the metal box. He quickly withdrew and retreated.

Su Chen felt a chill run down his spine, but his metal box remained completely undamaged.

"Hmm?" Yuan Chenyang seemed to sense something was wrong. He cautiously stepped forward, carefully reached out, and picked it up.

Then, his expression suddenly turned ugly, "The parasitic power of the evil god inside is gone!"

Su Chen's eyes flickered slightly. "What kind of supernatural power? What is this thing?"

“This is a magical artifact, made from meteorite iron. The magical gods can entrust a portion of their power to it.” Yuan Chenyang examined it from side to side, his expression growing increasingly grim. “Large-scale magical god sacrifices, summoning, and blessing all require this thing as a vessel.”

"According to my speculation, it should contain the power of the Black Tortoise, but it's empty. What exactly did they do in Nanfeng City!" Yuan Chenyang's forehead veins bulged. "It's too late. Nanfeng City is about to perish. We should have investigated thoroughly long ago!"

“Uh…” Su Chen hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"Fortunately..." Yuan Chenyang said with a hint of relief, "it was just an empty shell inside, otherwise I would have had to turn against my own family for the greater good."

"What do you mean?" Su Chen asked, curious.

“I’ve said before that your spiritual talent makes you extremely susceptible to the favor of these ghosts and gods. If there is also the power of the Black Tortoise within, it will surely corrupt you.”

Yuan Chenyang further explained, "Your career path will be cut off, you will become a puppet of the evil god, and lose your mind."

"That was disgusting." Su Chen looked shaken; what had happened to him was hard to explain.

“Not bad…” Yuan Chenyang took the opportunity to lecture, “The Ghost God is not a good thing. He may be able to grant you all kinds of wishes, but it will definitely be through another way that makes you very painful.”

"Therefore, we must keep our distance from these things."

"Don't worry." Su Chen nodded solemnly.

"You go back first, I'll handle things here," Yuan Chenyang waved his hand.

After going downstairs, he greeted Fatty Sun, and the two walked a little further away. He asked in a low voice, "Brother Sun, is there any convenient way to identify followers of the Ghost God?"

Fatty Sun hesitated, then shook his head and said, "As far as I know, there really aren't any. Some guys are just novice believers with strong willpower, which you can't tell from their behavior normally."

"Some of them don't even believe in the evil gods; they're just driven by profit, making them impossible to investigate. Anyway, it's difficult for Nanfeng to find any way to investigate them."

Su Chen seemed to be thinking about something. In that case, it would be harder to find prey.

After waving goodbye to everyone, Su Chen left.

"Imprisonment, poisoning, stalking and murder—and they get away with it?" Han Da said with envy.

"Shut up," Fatty Sun snapped, his expression grim. "If you dare to tell anyone what happened tonight, don't blame me for being ruthless."

...In the room, Yuan Chenyang glanced at Qi Chuan's body, walked to the window, turned on his bracelet, and dialed a contact.

"Old Yuan?" came an aged voice from the bracelet. "Why did you suddenly think of contacting me?"

"Elder Jiang, Qi Chuan is dead," Yuan Chenyang said calmly.

The bracelet fell silent, with only a faint crackling sound.

"How big of a deal is it?"

“The Deceptive God,” Yuan Chenyang uttered.

Jiang Rong's tone became more urgent, "You should know that it definitely has nothing to do with me."

Yuan Chenyang said directly, "I will have someone keep this under control and cut ties as soon as possible."

There was silence for a long time.

"Thank you," Jiang Rong said slowly.

"Okay." Yuan Chenyang ended the communication, and couldn't help but look at Qi Chuan's corpse again, muttering, "Perfect, this is a rare opportunity."

……

"That Yuan Chenyang is something else." Jiang Rong's expression kept changing.

"The Ghost God?" Jiang He, sitting opposite him, stood up in a rage: "Is Qi Chuan out of his mind? How dare he collude with the Ghost God?"

“Perhaps it wasn’t his intention to be targeted by the Ghost God… Sigh…” Jiang Rong sighed and pointed at Jiang He: “I told you before, don’t mess with guys like this who have no way out. If you really marry him, then settle down!”

"They have no attachments, but we do!"

Jiang He's momentum faltered, he turned his face away, and sat down again.

Jiang Rong shook his head inwardly, then said, "I didn't expect Yuan Chenyang to notify me in advance. I should thank Su Chen."

"Xie Suchen?" Jiang He asked, puzzled.

“Su Chen must have told Yuan Chenyang everything that happened that night,” Jiang Rong said leisurely.

“At that time, the academy had not yet been robbed, and Hei Tuo had not yet surfaced. Qi Chuan really wanted to kill you, which actually excluded us from the scope of suspicion.”

Jiang He snorted coldly and subconsciously touched his cheek.

“Next, things will get tense,” Jiang Rong murmured. “Zhang Hongbo is not here, Feng Chang is not here, Zhou Xian wants to avoid suspicion and is trying to win me over. Yuan Chenyang is making some big moves.”

.........

"I wonder what the purpose of this [Low-Tier Divine Power] is."

Su Chen opened the panel and stared at the blood-red text logo, which looked very ominous.

His current unemployed professions are [Wind Hunter] and [Arcane Scholar].

"Although it can also be used on Tier 3, it can't be left to breed smaller ones, and I don't know what kind of mutations it will cause." Su Chen pondered the pros and cons. "Let's choose [Wind Hunter]. If something really goes wrong, there's still the Tier 2 Warrior class as an alternative."

Mental-related professions are difficult to find, while physical-related ones are easier.

Having made up his mind, Su Chen did not hesitate and used the [Low-Rank Ghost God Power] on the [Wind Hunter].

On the panel, the crimson power of the eerie god transformed into strands of intertwined blood, wrapping around the Gale Hunter's hand.

[The Gale Hunter, corrupted by the power of the Demon God, gradually descends into madness, opening the path of the hunt: by hunting three Tier 2 professionals, he can evolve his profession to the highest level of Tier 2.]

"The Path of the Hunter? Evolution?"

Su Chen's expression became quite interesting, mixed with delight. Good...good indeed.

He has firsthand experience of the intensity of top-tier professions.
