Chapter 323: Do You Understand?

"I only came to the Leng Family to take a look; I didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest!"

He tossed the Mountain and River Map in his hand toward the city; the Mountain and River Map rapidly grew in size, enveloping the entire Leng Family within it.

The people of the Leng Family could not perceive the power of the Mountain and River Map, but the little boy who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground in the small hut of the Leng Family, licking his lips, seemed to sense something instantly; he looked toward mid-air, his expression changing slightly.

The next moment, a surge of power rose up within the small hut, seemingly wanting to confront the power of the Mountain and River Map.

However, this power was slightly fragile; after only a brief moment, it shattered completely, and the entire Leng Family was from that point on fully brought under the control of the Mountain and River Map.

Taking advantage of the brief gap, the little boy rose rapidly, dove directly into the Vajra Iron Cage nearby, and trapped himself with iron chains.

"It is time for the harvest!"

Seeing that the Mountain and River Map had perfectly enveloped the Leng Family, Shen Yu smiled with satisfaction; it was clear enough that the opponent's power was insufficient to resist the Mountain and River Map.

Besides, the fact that the opponent had tried every possible way to trick him into leaving showed that he was extremely weak—so weak that he didn't even dare to confront him head-on.

Such an opponent, isn't this just meat delivered to his doorstep?

The next moment, Shen Yu's figure vanished from where he stood, leaving only Leng Hanye alone outside the city.

A cold wind blew, bringing a trace of chill, and Leng Hanye felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar; this was a cold that went from the inside out, as if there wasn't a shred of warmth in his entire body.

The moment he saw Shen Yu disappear, Leng Hanye knew that the Leng Family was likely finished this time; the great Leng Family, a Leng Family with a heritage of nearly a thousand years, would likely vanish from the Jianghu after today.

Glancing in the direction of the Leng Family, Leng Hanye gritted his teeth and soared into the air, darting rapidly toward the city. He pushed his light-body technique to the limit, leaving only streaks of afterimages moving forward.

At this moment, Shen Yu had already appeared outside the small hut of the Leng Family; with a light wave of his hand, the hut before him instantly turned into a pile of ruins, revealing the situation inside.

And at this time, a figure covered in blood, with a hideous and terrifying face, stood there, watching him with a face full of vigilance.

The blood-red eyes were filled with bloodthirsty madness, making one shudder at a single glance.

At the same time, his gaze also revealed a look of greed, as if the way he looked at Shen Yu was the kind that made one drool with envy.

"Who are you?" Looking at this hideous figure that made one feel a bit nauseated, Shen Yu matched him against the information he possessed, but it seemed none of them matched.

However, although the Shadowless Sect tried every means to collect information on these old monsters, their reach was limited after all, so it was normal that some had not been collected.

"Forget it, they're going to die anyway, it doesn't matter!" The reason the Shadowless Sect wanted to collect information on these old monsters was to find their weaknesses to target them, or to let future generations have defenses against their unique skills.

Shen Yu was confident that with the Mountain and River Map in hand and so many sign-in rewards on his person, would he be afraid of an old fellow who hadn't even recovered his strength?

"Such strong power, such vigorous blood energy; if I could swallow you, my strength would surely increase greatly!"

Staring at Shen Yu, the blood-colored figure's greedy gaze flashed and vanished, after which only wariness remained in his eyes, though that low murmur was heard clearly by Shen Yu.

"Yo, what big talk!" He was already eyeing him before the fight had even started; hadn't all those who eyed him ended up being killed by him? Who do you think you are?

This ugly freak thinks he can win just because he has lived a long time? The Spirit Qi Surge has only just begun; the era that belongs to them hasn't arrived that quickly.

"Die for me!" Extending his hand forward, the power of the Mountain and River Map pressed down instantly; the terrifying power formed by the convergence of ten thousand waters and mountains was enough to make one feel despair.

Even these old monsters who had lived for who knows how many years could not ignore this kind of power. Of course, if they were in their prime they might not fear it, but now? It was still lacking a bit.

"Hmph!" Pressed by the terrifying power, the blood-colored figure was instantly suppressed, and the sound of bones shattering rang out from his body like a 'crack'.

Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit; Shen Yu had always known the terror of these old monsters, so when fighting them, one must go all out from the very beginning and never give them a moment to catch their breath.

These old monsters have lived for so many years; who knows what hidden cards they have waiting? One must press down with full force immediately so they cannot react at all.

The blood-colored figure struggled desperately, but it was all to no avail; his eyes suddenly looked toward the corner.

There, a little boy was locked in an iron cage, his whole body bound by heavy iron chains. At this moment, he was left with only endless terror, huddled in the iron cage and shivering, not even daring to look up.

"What a cute blood-food; if I wait for you to grow up, after I eat you, my strength will surely increase greatly!"

"But there is no time now to wait for you to grow up; I will swallow you first, and after swallowing you, my strength will increase greatly."

Speaking to this point, the blood-colored figure looked hatefully at Shen Yu: "Junior, you cut off my path; I want you to die!"

As if burning up the potential in his body to exchange for a momentary burst, the figure seemed at this moment to want to rush toward the little boy.

However, layers of Golden Rune appeared, directly stalling the opponent's footsteps, trapping him firmly like chains.

Nowadays, the Mountain and River Map contained not only ten thousand mountains and rivers but also layers of Array set up by Shen Yu.

If the Mountain and River Map could not be perfectly deployed, that would be one thing, but once deployed, the Array that Shen Yu had painstakingly set up for so long finally had its use.

Under the entrapment of the Array, the blood-colored figure charged as if completely insane. Such an outburst was ultimately limited; after the outburst came weakness.

So this was his last chance; once he fell into weakness, this young man before him would absolutely not let him go.

But no matter how hard he tried, the Mountain and River Map remained as steady as a rock and unbreakable, not giving him a single chance.

Until his momentum climbed to its peak and then began to wane, the blood-colored figure was truly panicked.

In his terror, the blood-colored figure seemed to use power far exceeding what he had before, actually appearing able to shake the Golden Rune that trapped him.

But that was as far as it went; until the end, when he began to turn from prosperity to decline and became gradually weak, he never broke the entrapment of the Array.

And when the opponent fell into complete weakness, Shen Yu moved; terrifying Sword Qi accompanied the terrifying power of the Mountain and River Map as it pressed down, rushing straight to crush the opponent.

The power of this magnificent momentum was enough to sweep away everything; after a violent tremor, the blood-colored figure's flesh and blood were shattered, almost completely ground into nothingness.

Even his Mental Power was worn away by Shen Yu, truly leaving not even a scrap behind.

"Done, job finished!" Looking at his masterpiece, Shen Yu nodded with satisfaction and then began to communicate with the system.

He had been overwhelmed by the Spirit Qi Surge recently; he had neither the time to do good deeds nor the time to crack down on corrupt officials, bandits, and bullies, so he was just waiting to kill such old monsters to generate income.

Having finally killed one, he didn't know what he could get this time.

"System, sign in!"

"Sign-in failed!"

"Sign-in failed? Impossible!" The system's prompt in his ear made Shen Yu pause slightly; the opponent clearly hadn't even had a scrap left, he was dead through and through, so how could the sign-in fail?

This was not only under the coverage of his Super Perception but also inside the Mountain and River Map; if the opponent were faking death, it would be impossible to hide it from him.

Is this broken system malfunctioning? He is clearly dead; are you trying not to give out the reward?

"System, sign in!"

"Sign-in failed!"

Trying again, Shen Yu couldn't help but frown. The old monster just now was absolutely as dead as could be, yet the sign-in failed; could it be that this old monster was actually a good person?

No way, in this day and age, could there really be a cat that doesn't steal fish? Besides, just look at that bloodthirsty appearance; from head to toe, what part of them is a good person?

No, there is another possibility, which is that the one who died wasn't that old monster at all, or the old monster didn't die at all!

"Uncle, I'm scared!"
