Chapter 331

"Friend on the left! Let me hear your dying screams!"

Pi Xiong turned his body, looking to the left, pressing the Book of Life and Death against the back of his ear, assuming a posture of listening intently.

Those people naturally would not scream.

A man shouted curses: "Where did this lunatic come from! Security! Where's security! Throw this lunatic out! Break his legs! I'll take responsibility if his legs are broken!"

Quite a few women were also cursing and grumbling, extremely dissatisfied, having been having a great time.

How did an idiot suddenly run out?

A woman standing relatively close, swaying her body, grabbed a wine bottle beside her and smashed it over: "Get lost and go home to your mommy!"

There was still some wine inside the bottle, quite a bit splashed out in mid-air; Pi Xiong, holding the Book of Life and Death, assumed a baseball batting stance, and used the Book of Life and Death to bat the wine bottle away.

"Bang!"

A sound that made one's teeth ache just hearing it.

The wine bottle shattered into a large quantity of fragments.

That woman's head snapped back violently, she fell backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.

A huge bloody hole on her forehead, bottle fragments visible inside; the woman's body convulsed, fresh blood flowing continuously, dyeing a large patch of the floor red.

Very soon there was no more sound from her.

"Oh, oh, the first deceased has appeared!" Pi Xiong's voice was incomparably excited, "Let's take a look, why did she die..."

"Hmm—"

He flipped through the Book of Life and Death with one hand, "Oh, found it, Cui Xinke, original Yang lifespan fifty-six, now deceased, cause of death: interference by external force, hahaha, she was killed by me!"

"Sorry, sorry, hahaha..."

That Pi Xiong over there laughed until he was gasping for breath, like a madman.

The others, however, stood frozen in place, trembling with cold fear.

"Aaaah!"

A moment later, someone screamed, running desperately toward the elevator, the fire escape direction.

When they ran over there, they discovered all the security guards were lying on the ground, alive or dead unknown.

These people wouldn't bother with the guards' life or death either; they pressed the elevator buttons, and a portion of the quick-witted ones went straight to open the fire escape door.

Only, a strand of eerie black-and-white qi emerged.

Cutting off all roads leading to the outside world.

It looked like qi, but was actually like transparent solid glass; no matter how these twenty-odd people smashed or pounded at it, it didn't budge an inch.

The elevator, the stairs were right before their eyes, yet they could not touch them.

"Tsk tsk." Pi Xiong smiled, "I said it, this is the funeral for all of you, how could I possibly let you escape?"

"Oh, forgot to mention."

"Yin-Yang Dao Lord, is a nickname I gave myself, sounds cooler."

"You all, can actually call me Soul-Hooking Messenger."

"Black and White Impermanence!"

The final four words, accompanied by a shrill cry.

The cry did not come from Pi Xiong, but from that woman just killed by Pi Xiong with a bottle.

Her corpse stood up, emitting a piercing shriek.

Charging toward the utterly terrified crowd.

"So noisy."

Tang Luo waved a hand, and that woman's running corpse flew backward, crashing into the wall.

Limbs bent at strange angles, still constantly struggling, trying to stand up.

"Oh, Master Xuanzang."

Pi Xiong shifted his gaze to Tang Luo walking over, "Please don't rush, you are the last deceased, your death will become a brilliant pearl on the crown of the grand ceremony."

Tang Luo ignored Pi Xiong, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking outside.

The black and white two qi were faintly visible, extremely ethereal and insubstantial, not affecting vision at all.

The city outside could be seen, brilliant lights and bustling entertainment, even in the deep of night it never rested, a prosperous sleepless city.

"Does Master want to wait for your White Dragon Horse?" Pi Xiong said with a smile, "He can't get in, but rest assured, I won't kill him. Look, the master killed, the mount avenges — how's that plot? I personally really like this kind of deep-grudge, great-hatred storyline!"

"... Is there something wrong with your brain?" Tang Luo looked at Pi Xiong.

This guy isn't Pi, his brain should be broken.

"If you must say there's a problem, there actually is a bit." Pi Xiong said with a smile, "After all, I have split personality."

Pi Xiong, male, God-Demon Walker, before entering the God-Demon Game, resided in a mental hospital, split personality, dual personality patient.

Originally he was almost cured.

Result: entered the God-Demon Game... so the illness became even more severe.

The one Tang Luo and the others first met was Pi Xiong's surface personality, obedient, timid, cowardly.

And such a personality is very hard to survive in the crisis-ridden God-Demon Game.

So, Pi Xiong's inner personality formed a stark contrast with the surface personality, possessing extremely strong aggression.

Brutal, unbridled, arrogant, like a "Husky off its leash".

"Split personality, multiple personalities?" Tang Luo asked.

"It's dual personality." Pi Xiong raised his head, a face full of pride, "How about it, pretty cool right?"

"Your personality was born when you were eight years old, right? A complete irritable bear child." Tang Luo said, "On a public bus, you'd get a three-hit combo from people."

The proud expression on Pi Xiong's face instantly vanished, he said in a low voice: "What I hate most is people saying I'm a child."

Tang Luo's guess was correct.

Pi Xiong's second personality was indeed born at age eight.

Later, through treatment it was basically almost cured, but the long-term treatment made Pi Xiong timid and cowardly as well.

Therefore, after entering the God-Demon Game, the inner personality that was originally about to disappear grew strong again.

After gaining powerful strength, the inner personality turned into its current appearance.

A hot-tempered brat.

His behavior was not profit-oriented; it was purely for fun.

Just like children like to catch little bugs, catch frogs and toads to play with, simply feeling it was fun.

Pi Xiong's inner personality was a psychology and state similar to this.

He wanted to kill all these people, not for profit.

If one had to assign a camp, he belonged to chaotic neutral; his decisions were entirely based on his own whim, with no distinction between good and evil, and his upper and lower limits were worlds apart.

If it were for profit, the first moment he got the Book of Life and Death, he should have left, found a place to hide, and waited for the mission to complete.

As for why he wanted to kill Tang Luo, there were two reasons.

One, guarding his food; whether outer or inner personality, neither was stupid. Pi Xiong knew very well the importance of the Book of Life and Death.

He treated it as an extremely important, beloved "toy"; to prevent this "toy" from being taken by others, he decided to kill Tang Luo this person first.

Two, was bullying.

However, the target he wanted to bully was not Tang Luo, but Ao Yulie. He wanted to play the Demon King, bullying Ao Yulie this deep-hatred avenger.

"Since you don't think you're a child, give me the Book of Life and Death." Tang Luo said, "Don't act stupid like a little kid."

Old-fashioned and arrogant, the standard condescending adult that little kids hate most.

"You go die!"

So, Pi Xiong erupted without a doubt. He roared, the black and white twin qi swirling around his body suddenly surged, brushing toward Tang Luo in a sweep.

The entire floor was instantly shrouded by this deathly aura; the others' faces all turned extremely ugly, even breathing required their full strength.

And Tang Luo, shrouded by the black and white twin qi, completely ignored it, reaching out to grab.

The black and white twin qi washing over his body instantly dissipated and vanished.

The Nirvana Glazed Great Hand Seal manifested, gripping Pi Xiong.

Pi Xiong let out an incomparably miserable shriek, his body simultaneously disappearing.

When he reappeared, he was already behind Tang Luo, pressed tight against the floor-to-ceiling glass, or rather pressed against the black and white twin qi on it.

"Oh, some skill. No wonder you're so confident." Tang Luo turned to look at Pi Xiong and said.

Pi Xiong's eyes were full of shock. Just now in that instant, he had used two abilities.

One ability was similar to damage transfer, even reversal; it could transform part of the damage inflicted on him into death qi, reverse it into his own vitality or transfer it to others.

What he did to Ao Yulie back then relied on this ability.

The second was a life-saving escape ability, using the black and white twin qi to transfer.

These two abilities were not simple skills; they were abilities produced by the fusion of destiny fragment power and skills.

They were not sealed from the start and could be used.

Pi Xiong stared at Tang Luo, panting violently, his condition deteriorated to the extreme.

"You bastard!" Once they exchanged moves, in a single clash he was beaten like this, almost "crippled," making him furious beyond measure.

Thus, Pi Xiong flipped open the Book of Life and Death, bit his index finger, and wrote the three characters "Tang Xuanzang" on it with his own blood.

Occupying a whole page, dragon-flying phoenix-dancing, but very ugly.

As the three characters Tang Xuanzang were written onto the Book of Life and Death, the Book of Life and Death suddenly trembled once.

In the void, came bursts of metal clashing sounds; chains began to spread out.

Not the single chain that appeared the previous two times; the quantity directly exceeded a hundred strands.

Near the floor's ceiling was where the chains appeared.

These chains collided with each other, continuously emitting sounds, looking like twisted snakes.

Making one's scalp tingle at the sight.

"Aaaah!"

This time, those able to be seen were not merely Tang Luo and these God-Demon Walkers.

Including Zheng Chiyou, this former Book of Life and Death holder, all let out miserable screams.

The moment they saw the chains, they instinctively felt fear, as if seeing the embodiment of death.

Between life and death there is great terror; not just anyone can remain calm.

These people's cries seemed to be a signal; the chains that were originally just swaying instantly moved.

But their target was not Tang Luo, but the other people in the floor!

In the blink of an eye, everyone was pierced through the chest by chains, then lifted up, and their souls were pulled out.

Chains wound around the souls, vanishing without a trace.

A moment later, another round of clanging sounds rang out.

Some chains re-emerged from the void; the quantity seemed to have increased by a few strands compared to just now.

All the chains slowly moved, intertwining together, like a giant snake, coiling around Tang Luo.

"These chains are composed of souls..." Over there Pi Xiong laughed heartily in delight, while Tang Luo discerned some clues.

"Little White Dragon, come take a look." Tang Luo spoke, "Is this thing really the Book of Life and Death? I don't know much about magic treasures."

"Huala—"

A crisp sound of glass shattering.

Howling high-altitude cold wind rushed in; Ao Yulie, carrying Jia Li, smashed through the solid tempered glass, not taking the conventional route.

"Hiss, Master, what is this! So disgusting!"

Seeing those chains entangled and twisted together, Ao Yulie's expression turned ugly.

Clearly cold black metal — at least on the surface — yet moving like this, it was as if some kind of living creature.

Gloomy death Qi permeated... resembling some sort of venomous insect.
