Chapter 217: Grinning

Wu Pifu stayed in Yantian City for twenty days. During this period, his life was truly very comfortable. Every day he teased birds and walked dogs, practiced boxing and ate, and incidentally played games...

That's right, he was playing games.

Although this era was a doomsday, it was the doomsday of the 25th century. Before the Third World War began, human technology was already very advanced. Although it couldn't be said that they colonized the entire solar system, there were colonial cities on the moon, and there were forward bases on Mars and Jupiter's moons. Unfortunately, the Third World War came, and these early colonial cities or bases were completely destroyed by the opposing side.

However, just in terms of technology, it was even stronger than the previous Dream World Wu Pifu was in. Things like electronic game consoles, although they belonged to pre-war antique levels, could still be purchased as long as there was enough money.

Wu Pifu played these games that were from a future era to him. For example, he played a side-scrolling game very happily. The character in it was a martial artist carrying a bird and a dog, holding a broken broadsword and slashing people incessantly...

Twenty days passed in a flash. Apart from the time Wu Pifu spent playing games, he used all other time to practice boxing and martial arts. He didn't feel bored either. This feeling of slowly becoming stronger himself was truly intoxicating, and he himself had enough motivation to become stronger—whether it was the few big shots who were watching him, or the revenge he wanted, or chasing the backs of his departed companions, all of these required strength!

Although he hadn't advanced to 'Gang Jin' in terms of national martial arts, Wu Pifu was increasingly able to feel the improvement in his control of 'Qi Jin'.

Both 'Human Immortal Martial Dao' and 'Iron Refining Record' had progress, and both required spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The only pity was that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was too little, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth emitted by the Spirit Machine Core in his hand was getting less and less. Although it was still steady, it undoubtedly meant that it needed Wu Pifu to slaughter to continue to supply spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Wu Pifu was not a murderer, nor was he a demon. Naturally, he couldn't just run out and kill randomly. He was waiting for the attack from the Mercenary Society and the Researcher Society, but twenty days passed, and there was no attack at all, which really puzzled him.

The attack didn't come, but Li Xianchun brought Li Muxia and four little followers to Yantian City.

"Did you do something!?"

Li Xianchun questioned Wu Pifu the moment she saw him.

"What!? What did I do?" Wu Pifu asked, stunned.

Li Xianchun stared at Wu Pifu and asked: "What have you been doing these days?"

Wu Pifu looked at the game console placed in the living room of the room, and then at the iron dummy in the practice room, and said: "Eat, sleep, practice martial arts, play games... what else?"

Li Xianchun stared at Wu Pifu for a long time before she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, I thought wrong."

Wu Pifu greeted everyone to sit down, and at the same time gave everyone drinks. He himself also took a bottle of beer, flicked the cap open with his finger, drank while asking: "So? What happened?"

Li Xianchun sighed and said: "The Security Society has disbanded, the high-level officials of the Mercenary Society and the Researcher Society have disappeared, and now the order outside is in chaos. When I came over, the high-level officials of the two major societies said that today they would announce the truth about the demon who slaughtered the Security Society..."

"Pfft!"

Wu Pifu sprayed a mouthful of beer. He looked at Li Xianchun foolishly and asked: "No, what kind of good thing is the Security Society? How did destroying this thing become a demon?"

Li Xianchun's eyes immediately became sharp, staring at Wu Pifu, while Li Muxia and the four others looked at Wu Pifu with full faces of confusion and shock.

Wu Pifu didn't speak either, got up and turned on the TV and said: "So how are they going to announce it? Radio? TV? They can't be handing out flyers on the street or sending out storytellers, right?"

And as Wu Pifu turned on the TV, he saw that on the Mercenary Society channel, there were indeed a man and a woman who looked like news anchors saying something, and in the background of the two, videos were playing one after another. In the videos, there were various determined and brave soldiers and fighters. They held firearms, threw grenades, relied on combat vehicles and armored vehicles, and kept attacking the unknown existence in front of them.

Then, Wu Pifu's appearance began to appear in these videos. He had a ferocious expression, held an unknown broadsword, and cut all these brave soldiers into fragments, not even sparing the combat vehicles and tanks. And in the background behind him was a burning steel fortress...

This was a pure murderous demon king slaughtering a human city!

"No, I... it's not! It's not like this!" Wu Pifu pointed at the screen and shouted loudly.

Li Xianchun stared at Wu Pifu and asked: "Isn't this what you did?"

Wu Pifu immediately nodded and shook his head: "It is what I did. A real man doesn't change his name when he sits or stands. This is what I did, but I don't have this expression, and those soldiers were all fleeing in panic, and even shooting their own people in the back. It's not like this at all, okay!?"

Li Xianchun ignored him and still asked urgently: "So you really destroyed the Security Society's headquarters, right?"

"Yes, but..."

Wu Pifu flipped through the TV channels again and turned to the Researcher Society channel. It was indeed full of videos and various screenshots of him killing people, and there were also descriptions of the women and children in the steel fortress, their miserable crying, miserable dead bodies, etc...

Li Xianchun said with a miserable face: "It's over now... Do you know the situation outside? With the collapse of the Security Society, the three strongest army groups of the Security Society have begun to fight each other. In their war zones, a large number of civilians have died or been injured, and they have been displaced. That's not all. With the collapse of the Security Society, the high-level officials of the Mercenary Society and the Researcher Society have disappeared. Although these two societies haven't had a civil war yet, their functional systems have completely stopped. Currently, outside of Yantian City, all cities and towns can no longer exchange for pure fresh water, and cannot buy medicine and food from the two major societies. At the same time, the armed forces of the two major societies have also begun a large-scale retreat, and a large number of biochemical beasts have begun to ravage. Just in the time I came over, the number of villages, towns, and cities I know have been destroyed is no less than a hundred!!"

"Just by my estimation, today alone, the number of deaths in human society might reach one hundred thousand!! And now, the pure water exchange and various society functions in Yantian City have all stopped. Do you understand what this means!?"

Wu Pifu fell silent. After a few seconds, he carried the broken broadsword on his back, beckoned to Jiu Jiu, put Jiu Jiu in his pocket, touched the dog head of Daphne who walked over, and turned to walk out of the hotel room.

Li Xianchun was shocked. She pounced on him and grabbed Wu Pifu's clothes, saying: "Don't! I know you are powerful, like a god or a demon, and can even break through the Security Society, but those outside are just ordinary people. They don't know the inside story, they just want to live!" Li Muxia and the four others were all ignorant. They didn't know what happened at all, only knowing that Wu Pifu had picked on the Security Society, the strongest of the three major societies. But why did Li Xianchun feel it was very bad?

Wu Pifu just didn't speak, dragged Li Xianchun out of the hotel, and then he saw the crowd on the street. There were mercenaries with weapons, lone wolves driving tanks and combat vehicles, ordinary people who were trembling all over but still looking over with full faces of hatred, and farmers from outside the city who were in rags and tatters. They all stared at Wu Pifu.

A sea of people, as if the whole city had come.

Wu Pifu walked past this group of people with an expressionless face. He walked toward the city gate step by step.

"Devil!"

"Can a Super Soldier just slaughter randomly?"

"... What savior? There is no savior at all!!"

"Murderer!"

"I just want a bucket of water, just a bucket of water..."

"My son is sick, he needs medicine, but there is no medicine to sell, no medicine to sell..."

!

I don't know who spoke first, and then the insults, wailing, and screams echoed throughout the city.

A stone, a rotten egg, a lump of feces...

Wu Pifu just shattered those hard and heavy objects one by one, not letting them hit the five people behind him, but he took all the filth. Li Xianchun and the others were also drenched like maggots in a cesspit. Li Muxia and the four others wanted to run away, but Li Xianchun was full of determination at this time, holding her sister tightly and still walking behind Wu Pifu.

Just these few streets, even with Wu Pifu's care, Li Xianchun and the five others were still smashed until their heads were bleeding, almost burying their heads and running forward.

But fortunately, perhaps because of the deterrence of Wu Pifu's slaughter of the Security Society, no one used weapons, and no one dared to use combat vehicles or tanks to attack. They walked out of the city gate in these filth and insults, and then a group of people ran up and pushed the city gate together, blocking Wu Pifu and the others firmly outside.

"... Let's go."

Li Xianchun, with her head bleeding, only dared to raise her head at this time. She wiped the filth on her face, almost vomiting. However, she was truly strong, holding back the tears in her eyes, clenching her fists tightly, and whispered: "Let's go, back to Liusha Town... No, back to our hometown. We will go there and discuss it from the long term."

Li Muxia cried out loudly at this time, grabbing her sister's hand, crying very aggrievedly. But gradually, her crying stopped, because a terrifying pressure was erupting from Wu Pifu. Even ordinary people could clearly feel it, so much so that Li Muxia, Wang Wang, Ladder, and Big Brother didn't even dare to make a sound.

They saw Wu Pifu smile.

An incomparably ferocious smile. Although it was still a human face, this smile made them tremble in their hearts, as if they had seen the most terrifying demon.

Li Xianchun immediately pounced on Wu Pifu again, pulling him tightly, and roared: "Don't attack them, they are just..."

"I know."

Wu Pifu said: "I won't attack them, because they are innocent. Even if they do this to me at this time, it is actually me who implicated them. One thing is one thing, one report is one report. This is what I deserve, and besides... if I draw my sword against the weak, wouldn't my martial arts be learned in vain?"

Li Xianchun asked urgently again: "Then who are you aiming at?"

Wu Pifu looked ahead and said word by word: "Whoever is strong, I aim at them. If there is a grudge, I will report it; if there is a grievance, I will report it. One thing is one thing, one report is one report. And besides..."

"Life will naturally find a way out. People cannot be suffocated by urine. When the time comes..."

"There will naturally be great scholars to interpret the scriptures for me. I am very much looking forward to how they will save everything in front of them when the time comes."

Wu Pifu's smile became more and more intense, and the grinning sound exploded.

Shaking the heavens and the earth.
