Slaying God: I, the insane and witty god

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the dilapidated streets, and the shrill cries of crows echoed in the silent night sky.

Lin Qiye and Wu Hen walked through a narrow alley and came to an open space.

A hunched figure was standing there, staring motionlessly at a deep cut on the ground - it was Wu Laoquan.

A few crows circled above his head, making shrill screams, as if foreshadowing some ominous sign.

"Old Wu, are you reminiscing about your youth again?"

Wu Hen walked up to him nonchalantly and said, "Back then, you were the most handsome guy on this street!"

Old Dog Wu slowly raised his head, a complex emotion flashing in his cloudy eyes.

"This cut mark... is very special."

His voice was as raspy as sandpaper. "It holds a... disturbing power."

Lin Qiye walked to the scar and squatted down to observe it carefully.

This cut was not left by an ordinary sword. It was more like a regular mark, deeply embedded in the ground, as if it was cutting through this space.

"You're right, Old Wu."

Lin Qiye stood up, his eyes deep.

"I feel like... in the deepest part of my dream, a very important person died."

Wu Laoquan's breathing suddenly became rapid. He suddenly grabbed Lin Qiye's arm, and his skinny fingers clasped it tightly like a pair of iron pliers.

"You...how do you know?" he asked in a trembling voice.

Lin Qiye gently patted the back of Wu Laoquan's hand, signaling him to calm down.

"I dreamed..."

He paused and turned his gaze to Wu Hen.

"We all dreamed about it."

Wu Hen scratched his head, bewildered. "What did I dream about? Why can't I remember it?"

Lin Qiye ignored Wu Hen's joke and continued, "In my dream, I saw a world shrouded in darkness, full of death and despair..."

Thousands of miles away, a team of [Psychics] were chasing a woman in black - Yi Xiaoyu.

Yi Xiaoyu was agile and could climb walls and jump across rooftops, constantly changing directions in an attempt to shake off the pursuers behind her.

But she was ultimately outnumbered and was forced to the edge of the sea in the southeast.

"Stop struggling, Yi Xiaoyu!"

The leader of the [Psychic] team shouted coldly, "Just follow us back and maybe you'll suffer less!"

Yi Xiaoyu looked back at the turbulent sea, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

She leaped into the sea and disappeared into the vast night...

Back in the clearing, Wu Laoquan suddenly stood up and said calmly, "Actually... I'm the same as you..."

Wu Laoquan straightened up, dusted himself off, and said in an unusually calm tone, "Actually... I'm just like you, a 'Ren Bufan'."

He paused, then added, "It's genuine, no cheating."

Wu Hen almost vomited blood.

"Old Wu, are you playing Versailles here? We are talking about serious matters! What Ren Bufan, why are you pretending to be a mysterious master here?"

"If you were Ren Bufan, I would be the Jade Emperor!"

Lin Qiye keenly captured the key information in Wu Laoquan's words.

"Old Wu, do you know Yi Xiaoyu? And those [mediums] who are hunting her down..."

Wu Laoquan waved his hand, a rare sly smile showing on his face.

"The secrets of heaven must not be revealed, boys. Knowing too much is not good for you."

"I advise you to mind your own business and stay in this fasting place. That's the best policy."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey! Old Wu, wait a minute!"

Wu Hen rushed forward and blocked Wu Laoquan's way.

"You want to run away now? At least give me some information! Are you playing hard to get here, old man?"

Old Dog Wu sighed and shook his head helplessly.

"Young man, curiosity kills the cat. There are some things you can't get involved in."

He stretched out his skinny finger and pointed into the distance, "I advise you to think about how to survive..."

His finger wasn't pointing at the empty night sky, but...

The gate of the fasting house.

Wu Hen grabbed Wu Laoquan's dirty sleeve as if he was pulling an old dog that was about to ascend to heaven.

"Old Wu, what do you mean? Are there werewolves out there? Or vampires? At worst, Sadako will do! What are you afraid of? I've got you covered!"

As he spoke, he patted his chest. If you didn't know him, you would think his chest muscles were very developed, but in fact, he just had two pieces of seaweed stuck on his ribs.

Lin Qiye stared into Wu Laoquan's eyes with a sharp gaze, and asked word by word, "Out there... is there something chasing you?"

When Wu Laoquan heard this, a trace of barely perceptible fear flashed across his cloudy eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

"Ahem, young man, you think too much."

"It's windy and rainy outside, and people are treacherous. I am old and can't stand the tossing and turning. It's better for me to stay in this fasting house and spend my retirement."

When Wu Hen heard this, he was immediately happy.

"Old Wu, you're not hiding out here because you're in debt?"

"Don't worry, I'm rich! I can help you settle any high-interest loan!"

As he spoke, he took out a handful from his pocket...

He generously handed the rice to Wu Laoquan.

Old Dog Wu glanced at the handful of melon seeds with disdain, then looked at Wu Hen who looked serious, and finally sighed.

"Alas, it's really hard to explain to you young people. It doesn't hurt to tell you that outside... there is 'Ren Bufan' chasing me."

"Ren Bufan?"

Wu Hen was stunned for a moment, then started to talk nonsense again, "Ren Bufan is chasing you? Is he too idle to do anything?"

"Besides, you're just an old man, why would he chase you? Could it be that... when you were young, you stole his wife?"

Lin Qiye frowned, as he was not unfamiliar with the name Ren Bufan.

All the strange events encountered before seemed to be inextricably linked to "Ren Bufan".

"What if... we want to leave here?" Lin Qiye suddenly asked.

Wu Laoquan's eyes flickered for a moment, and he said, "Want to leave? It's not impossible... But we have to wait until the time is right..."

Before he finished speaking, a rustling sound suddenly came from the distance, approaching at an extremely fast speed...

Wu Laoquan's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Lin Qiye and Wu Hen and growled, "Quick! Follow me!"

He dragged the two of them along and quickly ran towards the depths of the fasting center, leaving behind an eerie silence...

Thousands of miles away in the desert, dust rolled and winds raged, as if the whole earth was shaking.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the sand sea. It was Yi Xiaoyu who had just escaped from the sea.

She was breathing heavily, her black clothes were soaked by the sea water and stuck tightly to her body, making her look a little disheveled.

Seven dazzling silver lights suddenly flashed in the sky, and then seven giant silver pillars fell from the sky and smashed towards Yi Xiaoyu.

She dodged hastily but was still hit by the edge of one of the pillars. Her body was instantly knocked out and fell heavily on the sand.

"Yi Xiaoyu, you can't escape this time!"

The captain of the [Psychic] team sneered. He stood on the top of the silver pillar and looked down at the miserable Yi Xiaoyu.

Yi Xiaoyu struggled to get up from the ground, with a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, but her eyes remained firm.

She raised her head and looked coldly at the captain of the [Psychic] team.

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You self-righteous guys, do you think that seven silver pillars can trap me?"

The members of the [Medium] team jumped down from the giant pillars one after another and surrounded Yi Xiaoyu.

The captain smiled smugly and said slowly, "Yi Xiaoyu, there's no way for you to escape this time."

"Surrender obediently, and perhaps you will suffer less."

Yi Xiaoyu snorted coldly, and suddenly took out a strange rune from his arms. He quickly formed seals with his hands and whispered a spell.

A powerful energy wave suddenly erupted around her body, and the silver pillar was shaken slightly by this force.

"Humph, I'll give you a big gift, watch out!"

Yi Xiaoyu sneered, waved his hands vigorously, and the talisman turned into a dazzling light, instantly spreading around.

The light faded away, leaving only a huge deep pit in its place, and Yi Xiaoyu had long disappeared.

Instead, countless wriggling black tentacles emerged from the ground like a nightmare, frantically attacking everything around them.

"What the hell! What the hell is that?!"

A [Psychic] team member screamed in fear, waving his weapon, trying to cut off the tentacles.

But the tentacles wrapped around him tightly like maggots on the tarsal bones, dragging him into the ground.

"Ahhh! Help!"

The other team members were also entangled by the tentacles, letting out shrill screams, and were dragged into the ground one by one and disappeared.

The captain of the [Psychic] team's face changed drastically. He realized that the situation was not good and quickly flew into the air, trying to escape from this haunted place.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

A cold voice came from underground, and then a huge tentacle emerged from the ground.

Like lightning, it wrapped around the captain's ankles and pulled him down fiercely.

The captain struggled desperately, but the tentacles were so powerful that he couldn't break free.

Seeing that he was about to be dragged underground, a look of despair appeared on the captain's face.

"Damn! What the hell is this?!"

The captain roared in despair as the tentacles wrapped around his body tighter and tighter, making it increasingly difficult for him to breathe.

"team leader!"

The only remaining member of the [Psychic] team watched in horror as the captain was dragged underground. He didn't dare to stay any longer and turned around and ran.

"Don't even think about running away!"

A cold voice came from underground, and then a tentacle sprang out from the ground, instantly wrapped around the team member's body and dragged him into the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the [Psychic] team was completely wiped out, leaving only a huge deep pit and countless wriggling black tentacles at the bottom of the pit.

Thousands of miles away, a luxury cruise ship was sailing on the vast blue sea.

"Report! Yi Xiaoyu has fled to the southeastern sea!"

A [Medium] member reported to the leader Ren Bufan.

Ren Bufan's expression changed slightly. He realized the seriousness of the situation and muttered to himself, "The southeastern sea area...is not good!"

He stood up suddenly, looking towards the southeast, a serious look flashing in his eyes.

"Pass the order down, advance at full speed, target: southeast sea area!" Ren Bufan ordered in a firm tone.

"Yes!" The [Medium] member took the order and left.

Ren Bufan stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the sea in the distance, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

"Yi Xiaoyu...what on earth do you want to do?"
