Chapter 89: Shred him into countless pieces, reduce him to dross

Talking with you is really tiring, alright, don't block the way—if you go late, there's nothing to see!

The little boy jogged toward the deep mountains, suddenly stopped, turned back and warned Niao zui yi sheng.

Right!

You guys are newcomers, right? Remember, don't randomly barge into others' homes!

Even if you see the door open, you absolutely must not go in, otherwise... hum, you'll suffer!

It's even possible to be beaten to death.

Having said that, the little boy quickly left.

Beat me to death?

Niao zui yi sheng gave a cold snort; its strength is top-notch even among SSS Rank—what could kill it?

Thinking this, it gripped its sickle tightly and swung hard toward the little boy's direction.

Pfft!

The speed was astonishingly fast.

It struck the little boy's body.

In an instant, it split the little boy in half.

However, just like the old man before, there was no blood.

Huh?

Really strange.

Niao zui yi sheng frowned, leading Yi Er San hao toward the little boy.

But when it arrived at the place where the little boy had just been 'killed'...

The sight before it made even this Summoned Creature involuntarily suck in a breath of cold air.

Hiss...

Holy crap, where's the person?

Didn't I just cut him in half?

How come even the corpse is gone??

Niao zui yi sheng crouched down, trying to find traces of the other's disappearing corpse.

A perfectly intact pair of halves—how did they just vanish?

This isn't scientific!

Besides...

Why do I feel a chill approaching me?

Niao zui yi sheng inexplicably glanced backward.

But this glance,

almost made its eyeballs pop out.

Not far away, the little boy looked at Niao zui yi sheng unharmed, wearing an innocent yet chilling smile,

Hello there... outsider.

Oh dear...

This Niao zui yi sheng's movements seemed a bit stiff.

It stared at the little boy, its gaze continually sweeping back and forth over him.

After confirming the other was completely unharmed, not even a scar left,

it suddenly became flustered.

How could this happen?

That previous strike—I really split him in earnest!

Niao zui yi sheng carefully recalled, realizing this situation wasn't its own mistake.

Moreover, this little boy has a problem!

Huh?

Haven't we met somewhere before?

At this moment, the little boy spoke, his face always bearing a smile.

This made Niao zui yi sheng wonder in its heart, could it be amnesia??

Huh?

Why aren't you speaking? Have we met somewhere before?

The little boy asked again, his smile gradually freezing, the corners of his eyes seeming to crack a few fissures!

Not good!

Niao zui yi sheng's heart jolted; not knowing the other's details, it didn't act rashly but answered seriously:

Yes, we have.

You were sick before, and I cured you.

But now it seems there might be some side effects—stand still, don't move, let me examine you properly.

It gripped its sickle tightly, step by step, cautiously approaching the little boy.

At the same time, a hint of gloom flickered across the face hidden beneath its mask.

But just then,

The little boy lifted his head, revealing a strange smile,

Healing sickness?

"Are you treating me like this?"

As he spoke, he placed one hand on his head, then suddenly jerked it upward, and something unbelievable happened.

The little boy actually, right under the Niao zui yi sheng's eyelids, in a way that defied natural law, lifted his own upper body!

The incision separating the upper and lower body was exactly the one left by the Niao zui yi sheng before!

Damn it!

You're just messing with me!

Niao zui yi sheng inexplicably panicked, raised his sickle, and whoosh!

A cold light flashed in the air, and the sharp sickle once again split the little boy's body in two,

But just as his body was about to fall, a strange scene unfolded.

His body, like a pile of nutrient solution, was quickly decomposed and absorbed by the ground.

Finally, it vanished without a trace.

"The corpse is gone again?"

"What the hell are you up to?"

Niao zui yi sheng inexplicably felt panic.

As an SSS-level Summoned Creature, I've weathered storms, but what's happening now truly exceeds my comprehension.

This kind of eerie, unknown-filled fear is completely different from a strong visual impact!

It makes one feel fear from deep within!

"This place is too weird; if we learn the truth even a second later, our danger increases by one point."

"I have clearly sensed the threat of death!"

Niao zui yi sheng looked at the ones behind him—Number 1, 2, and 3—and waved his hand,

"Come on, let's go check out the village."

"That little boy just said not to enter others' homes, but we're going anyway!"

"The more they forbid us, the more it shows we're getting close to the truth."

Thinking of this,

They immediately headed for the village.

But who would have thought they had only taken a few steps.

Behind them.

A familiar voice sounded again from behind.

"Outsiders, hello." The little boy's childish voice rang out.

Damn it...

Niao zui yi sheng turned his head and saw that damned little brat again, and irritation instantly welled up.

"Damned thing!"

"What the hell do you want!"

Its body began to tremble; given its usual poor emotional and mental state, it was now on the verge of collapse.

This time, it didn't hesitate, raised the sickle in its hand, and pushed off with its feet.

Whoosh!

Like an arrow released from a bow, it swiftly darted to the little boy's side, and the blade fell!

Pfft!

Once again, it split him in half.

"This time it's finally over!" Niao zui yi sheng thought.

But immediately after, that childish voice capable of driving one mad rang out again.

Under the silent night sky, that voice seemed to have an indescribable magic, gradually breaking down Niao zui yi sheng's patience.

"Outsiders, hello."

"What a load of crap!"

"Go die!"

Niao zui yi sheng raised and lowered his sickle, quickly ending the little boy's life.

Is it over just like that?

Obviously.

No.

Only see, on the roof not far away, the little boy still gazed at Niao zui yi sheng with a smiling squint,

"Outsiders, hello."

Niao zui yi sheng: "..."

"What are you standing there for? Kill him!"

"Chop him into ten thousand pieces, turn him to scraps, and see how he revives!"

It thundered at Numbers 1, 2, and 3; although they, like Niao zui yi sheng, have independent thoughts, they are essentially Niao zui yi sheng's avatars, or rather obedient servants.

Upon receiving the order, they immediately acted.

Pfft!

The sound of the blade slicing flesh was unusually clear.

The little boy, once again, lost his life.

"I don't believe you can still..."

Foreigners, hello.

Niao zui yi sheng (already near losing control): "..."

I will definitely crush you to pieces today!

This time, it exerted all its strength, approaching the little boy at lightning speed, actually swinging its blade over a hundred times in a second!

The little boy's body turned to powder at a speed invisible to the naked eye!

Hmph!

This time, I will never let you revive again!

Niao zui yi sheng this time didn't let the little boy's body touch the ground; instead, it took out a blood bottle and placed the powdered body of the little boy inside.

I've already seen through your little trick.

As long as I don't let your body touch the ground, you cannot revive.

This round, I win!

Niao zui yi sheng revealed a smile after hardships.

As the blood bottle in hand shook violently, the object inside seemed to try to forcefully break through; Niao zui yi sheng sensed this, making its inference more certain.

Done!

After finishing everything, it felt extremely relieved.

But when it turned its head, looking at the surrounding unusually quiet village.

A feeling of helplessness surged instantly.

Wait, I seem to have overlooked something.

Niao zui yi sheng's brows gradually furrowed: 'Even a little boy has kept me busy this long, and there are still so many people in this village; if I were to face them, wouldn't I be... utterly defeated?'

The most crucial point is, these people aren't even true Dragon Nation summoned creatures!

Thinking of this.

Niao zui yi sheng's head felt a bit dizzy.

Almost couldn't stand steady and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Number One was sharp-eyed and quick-handed, quickly stepping forward to support it,

Master, are you alright?

I'm fine.

Apart from his deteriorating mental state, Niao zui yi sheng had no other serious issues.

As an SSS-level summoned creature, it wouldn't be so easily defeated.

Let's go!

Let's go check the village!

In the night sky, the dark clouds tightly covered its mouth.

Except for a few scattered households still burning dim yellow kerosene lamp flames, everywhere else sank into ink-like darkness.

Even in those houses with lights on, there was no one.

Everyone ran to join the fun, watching that shadow puppet show said to be divine.

Since entering the village, Numbers One, Two, and San hao went their separate ways to busy themselves.

For now, Niao zui yi sheng could only wander alone in an area.

I don't know if Numbers One, Two, and San hao have found any clues.

Niao zui yi sheng muttered to itself, and suddenly it saw a lit house not far away.

Not only that,

In the courtyard, there was also an old man fanning himself to cool off!

Hey, the clue literally came to our door!

Hard work does not betray the diligent!

Niao zui yi sheng quickened its pace, rushing toward that elder!

When only a few hundred meters remained, that old man seemed to sense something, whoosh, darting quickly into the house!

Not good!

Just as the door was about to close,

Who would have thought, Niao zui yi sheng's speed was astonishing; in the blink of an eye it lunged to the door, its sturdy palm firmly slapping the door about to close.

At the same time, it also casually remarked:

Hehehe, seeing me you want to run?

Where can you run? Can you even get away!

Niao zui yi sheng looked up at the elder, but when it peered through the crack and saw the interior clearly,

Its eyes widened.

Where are the people?

How come they're gone again!

Opening the door, only see under the dim candlelight, in the main hall one side piled with sprouted potatoes, the other side a coffin filled with dust.

A coffin placed inside the house?

What play is this?

Could there be a corpse inside?

Niao zui yi sheng furrowed its brows, continuing to examine the interior arrangement.

This is a simply furnished house, with no valuable furniture,

There were also no pleasing flowers and grasses; the view was filled with hoes, winnowing baskets, carrying baskets and similar farming tools.
