<strong>Chapter 488: The world tomb</strong>
Su Xue Er and her monster disappeared from the night sky, leaving this ce that caused her so much grief.
The Huang family mansion.
Originally lively and full of life, it was nowpletely silent.
This was a privately- owned forest situated by the capital, Huang family’s estate.
But the entire estate was now covered in sever corpse parts, fresh flowing blood and piles of bones.
A breeze of wind came by, bringing the thick stench of blood far away.
Out of nowhere, a foreign voice sounded.
『 The fragrance of fresh blood, it seems we’re here… 』
『 The human realm 』
Following the voice, a part of the estate’s soil began to loosen.
A grey-ish humanoid creature crawled out from below.
It was humanoid, butpletely unlike a human.
Because its skin waspletely ashen, its limbs were as thin as sticks with razor sharp ws.
asionally, its eyes and mouth would let out a brief me.
Wraith realm, Dead Eater.
The wraith reached out with its long ws to pick up a human head on the ground.
It stared at the head.
Unfortunately, there were no souls in there.
This type of wraith was unable to consume anything without a soul.
The Dead Eater observed the entire hall.
Full of corpses.
Without a single soul.
In other words, these corpses are nothing but decoration, nice to look at but can’t be eaten.
Thinking that, the Dead Eater was a bit angry.
It threw the head down and looked around the hall again more carefully.
“Hm?”
The mes in its eyes rose a bit higher.
It noticed two bloody tracks.
The Dead Eater began to move along the bloody track.
Its movement was nimble and quick, passing through the entire hall in seconds, stopping a man and a woman on their way along the estate road.
While the man and woman were excitedly running along the road, they were stopped by this strange creature.
The woman screamed from fright.
『 Living… food… 』
Saying so, patches of me dripped down from the Dead Eater’s mouth.
This was its spit.
“You monster!” the human man tried fluttering the ck cloak he was wearing.
Unfortunately, nothing happened at all.
“That’s impossible!” the man eximed desperately.
The Protector of the 9 Lords was supposed to protect the owner of the Starlight cloak.
But now, the Protector didn’t appear at all.
Right.
Just now, Su Xue Er killed the other 8 Lords at once, they were all wearing their Starlight cloaks as well
Why did the Protector not appear?
Su Wan Xin’s mind quickly moved.
But the Dead Eater didn’t have that much to think about, so it leapt at the two of them.
In desperation, the man erupted with all his potential.
He grabbed the woman next to him, pushing her to the Dead Eater.
“Don’t me me, I’m a Lord, I have to survive!” Su Wan Xin turned around and ran.
The woman screamed in despair: “Su Wan Xin! Even if I be a wraith I won’t forgive you!”
Be a wraith?
The Dead Eater remembered its mission.
It stopped its movements right away, even shutting its wide open jaws.
Mid-leapt, the Dead Eater skillfully turned its body tond in front of the woman.
It told her with much difficulty: 『 Be wraith, or food, your, choice 』
Hearing that, the desperate woman found new hope.
She understood its words.
“I’ll be a wraith, I’m willing to be a wraith!” the woman hurriedly spoke.
The Dead Eater nodded satisfyingly.
It lightly jumped and caught up with the running man.
The man was frightened and pulled out a small handgun.
Bang!
The bullet hit the Dead Eater head on, but bounced off.
The Dead Eater’s w lightly stabbed him.
The man’s body was skewered by its w.
“Arrggg!!!” the man screamed.
But he had no way to escape from the Dead Eater’s w.
The Dead Eater still very cautiously waited.
Only after confirming that he posed no threat at all did the Dead Eater let down its guard.
Humans are so weak.
The Dead Eater had such a thought.
Taking the still-screaming man, it went back to the woman.
『 Kill him, be wraith 』
It told the woman.
The woman was trembling nonstop, mumbling in despair: “I… I…”
The man begged: “Don’t kill me, I’m your husband!”
This begging of hispletely triggered the woman as sheughed while sobbing: “My husband? What did you do to me just now?”
At this moment, shepletely lost any remaining hope left.
Everything I did, just what were they really for?
Even if I be the most influential person in the world together with this man, I wouldn’t be able to contain my nausea.
Even if I give up on everything, I want nothing to do with him.
To do with…
“Say no more, I’m no longer rted to anybody in there”
These were the words her daughter said just now.
For some unknown reason, at this most desperate moment, she recalled her daughter.
Every little detail since her birth.
Her softy daughter.
Her hopeless daughter.
Her daughter that doesn’t care about authority.
The daughter that truly cared about her.
This sense of caring, I once thought of it as an unnecessary emotion for those in power.
But now…
I will have lost this sense of caring forever.
Madame Su shook her head whileughing and sobbing at the same time.
She took Su Wan Xin’s gun.
“I was wrong, please don’t kill me! Hurry! The estate is too quiet, quickly call for help!!!” Su Wan Xin’s words weren’tprehensive as he desperately begged for his life.
“I won’t kill you, because I won’t dirty my hands” Madame Su calmly said.
She put the gun to her own temple.
Xue Er, my daughter.
I’m sorry.
Bang!
Madame Su fell down.
Roar!!!
The Dead Eater screeched in annoyance at this.
It couldn’t understand this human’s behavior at all.
Just like the old records say, humans really areplicated creatures.
Whatever, let’s just fill my stomach first.
The Dead Eater nced back and forth between the woman and the man.
The woman was dead.
Her soul was already gone too.
The Dead Eater then locked its eyes on the man.
Opening its ming jaws, the Dead Eater bit off the man’s arm.
His blood gushed out.
“Aaaaaeeeee!!”
The man was screaming in a voice even more high-pitched than the woman.
But the Dead Eater didn’t take any notice of that at all.
It was immersed in savoring the delicious food.
Flesh that still contains fresh souls!!!
This was the most delicious creature it’s eaten for hundreds of years.
The Dead Eater opened its mouth again.
It wanted to finish eating the man’s flesh and soul while he was still alive.
…
At the same time.
The North Pole.
The peak.
The small cottage at the top was destroyed.
The Protector of the 9 Lordsid on the ground, barely alive.
She spat out some blood, asking in disbelief: “This is a Scattered world, the most remote ce of remote ces, why…”
Another voice answered her: “It’s because this ce is so unassuming and so remote that it’s able to hide the world tomb”
“World… tomb?” the Protector muttered in confusion.
Another voice scoffed: “Since you already discovered us and heard such thing, you can die now”
Intense wind pressure was aimed at the 9 Lords Protector’s head.
Seeing how she couldn’t escape death anymore, the Protector hurriedly shouted to the air: “I authorize you to release all restraints, make sure to take care of her!!!”
As soon as she finished, her body was shredded to pieces by the wind sh.
The screaming northern winds blew what remains of her away, quickly sweeping her away from sight.
A few momentster.
One of the voices from before asked: “What did thest thing she said mean?”
“Don’t know, you killed her too fast”
“It’s just some minor details, no need to pay attention”
They changed the subject.
“You sure it’s here?”
“I can’t confirm, but when this world went through fusion before, the unique vibration did show up, even if briefly”
“Hm, let’s stay and observe if this ce really is the world tomb…”
