Chapter 228: You Are Not Human

~7 min read 1,367 words

After Pu Lie left, Lu Wang came before the unconscious Daili and reached his right hand toward Daili's forehead.

The moment his right hand touched Daili's forehead, a burst of Black Qi emerged from Lu Wang's hand and drilled into Daili's brain; in less than a minute, Daili opened her eyes.

But her gaze was unfocused, and she looked just like a puppet.

"Leave here and return to your own home."

Lu Wang lowered his voice and spoke.

This voice drilled into Daili's mind like a spell, driving her to begin moving.

She was seen tidying her disheveled clothes and walking out of the guest room step by step, while Lu Wang followed behind Daili, observing her every move.

"Daili, why have you come out? I just saw Lord Pu Lie leave in a hurry; did something happen?"

The radiant Kaxi saw Daili walking down from the second floor looking dispirited, so she stepped forward to ask.

Seeing this scene, Lu Wang said in a low voice.

"Answer her."

"Perhaps Lord Pu Lie had an urgent matter to attend to; after his subordinate called him out just now, he left here in a hurry."

After a pause of several seconds, Daili slowly opened her mouth to answer.

Kaxi did not notice Daili's abnormality, thinking that Daili felt a sense of frustration because of Pu Lie's departure, so she hurriedly comforted her.

"It's alright, Daili; with your charm, Lord Pu Lie will definitely look for you again next time."

Daili squeezed a smile from the corner of her mouth and answered.

"Thank you for your comfort; I am a bit tired now and want to go home to rest, so I won't disturb you anymore."

Seeing Daili in this state, Kaxi nodded and said.

"Alright, do you need me to accompany you back?"

"No need, thank you."

After speaking, Daili bypassed Kaxi, left the house where the ball was being held, got into the car returning home, and disappeared into the night.

Lu Wang watched Daili's car leave until it was gone, then expressionlessly found Pu Lie sitting in his car and said respectfully.

"My Lord, it has been handled; once she returns home, it will begin to erupt."

At this moment, Pu Lie was carefully examining the green parasite in his hand and slowly said, "Lu Wang, how do you think this Daili was parasitized by the Zerg? After you send me back, go to her house and look for clues; there might be Zerg lurking in this Daili's home."

"As you command, my Lord."

After Daili returned home, a group of maids came to her side and began to change Daili's clothes, swapping her luxurious attire for loose silk pajamas; Daili did not make any other movements, which left the maids standing around her completely bewildered.

Just at this moment, Fei Ao Na among the maids felt that a wisp of Black Qi seemed to be emerging from the top of Daili's head, and Daili had not spoken since returning home, appearing just like a walking corpse—it was exceptionally eerie.

Sensing that something was wrong, Fei Ao Na began to move slowly toward the position of the bedroom door; Daili was too abnormal now, and coupled with the wisp of Black Qi on her head, it always gave her a sense of danger.

"Mrs. Daili, do you have anything else you need to instruct us on?"

A maid tentatively asked Daili; this sentence seemed to trigger a mechanism in Daili's body, and Daili found a dagger under her vanity, and before anyone could react, she slashed the throat of the maid who had spoken; hot blood gushed out from the maid's throat, and the maid wanted to open her mouth to say something, but she could no longer make any sound.

The hot blood flowed down her lips and dripped onto the clean floor.

This scene scared the surrounding maids silly, but after only a few seconds, all these maids began to run toward the bedroom door like they had gone mad.

Daili's movements were fast, one maid per slash, and blood splattered the room; not until the last maid fell did Daili stop the movements in her hands, but when Daili's gaze saw the opened bedroom door, a red light flashed in her originally brown pupils.

Subsequently, Daili rushed out of the walk-in closet with movements incomparable to an ordinary person, and seeing Fei Ao Na running, she quickly gave chase.

But eerily, no matter how Daili chased, she could not close the distance with Fei Ao Na.

Seeing Daili, who had fallen into a state of madness, Fei Ao Na felt a wave of confusion in her heart; what exactly had this Daili encountered at the ball to have become like this?

Seeing that Daili still showed no signs of regaining her reason, Fei Ao Na finally stopped her steps and muttered to herself.

"I originally intended to spare your life to act as a cover for me; I didn't expect you to turn into this state. It seems you have no way to continue acting as a cover for me, so you no longer have any value in existing."

As she spoke, Fei Ao Na crossed her fair arms, directly blocking the dagger Daili swung, and then with a wave of her palm, she decapitated Daili.

Looking at the corpse lying on the ground with its head and body separated, Fei Ao Na shrugged and said helplessly, "Where should I go next?"

"So it was you causing trouble in the Inner City; and you are actually a Zerg brood mother? Interesting."

A low voice came from behind Fei Ao Na, and a man wearing a formal suit appeared behind her, looking at Fei Ao Na without a ripple in his eyes.

Fei Ao Na's body quickly put distance between herself and the man in the formal suit who had suddenly appeared behind her, looking at the other party vigilantly.

"Don't be concerned; my name is Lu Wang, and I am acting under my Lord's orders to execute you here."

Lu Wang rolled up his sleeves and said to Fei Ao Na in a flat tone.

"Heh, knowing I am a brood mother, you still want to execute me, and alone at that; you really are quite confident in yourself!"

Fei Ao Na looked at Lu Wang with her deep blue pupils vigilantly, yet she spoke contemptuously to Lu Wang.

"It doesn't matter; you are going to die here anyway, so there is no need for nonsense."

Lu Wang tucked in his rolled-up sleeves, his body moved rapidly toward Fei Ao Na, and clenching his right fist, he slammed a punch toward Fei Ao Na's fair face.

Fei Ao Na did not expect the speed of this Human before her to be so fast; she only reacted when Lu Wang was close to her and quickly dodged backward, but Lu Wang's strike missed, and the next strike followed immediately after.

Fei Ao Na barely used her arms to block, but the powerful force made Fei Ao Na feel as if this body of hers was nearing collapse, and furthermore, this man before her did not seem to have used his true strength.

Thinking that the Zerg had not made significant progress on the front lines, she could not afford any more trouble on her side; Fei Ao Na's eyes narrowed, the skin on her arms was torn open, and a pair of sharp pincers clamped toward Lu Wang, but a dense Black Qi suddenly emerged from Lu Wang's body, directly blocking Fei Ao Na's attack.

"You are not a Human! No, you are a Human; as a Human, you have actually defected to the Demon!"

Seeing the appearance of that dense Black Qi, Fei Ao Na looked at Lu Wang in surprise.

"Heh, that is not a question you should be considering now; if I can kill you, does it make a difference what power I use?"

The dense Black Qi around Lu Wang's body sprayed outward, enveloping Fei Ao Na; immediately after, a sound of bones shattering came from within, along with some blood flowing out of the range of the Black Qi.
