Chapter 1667: You Really Aren't Afraid of Death

"Kid, using such cruel methods to kill, you really have a way with things." The fat security guard holding a pistol spoke in a slightly strange tone: "You wouldn't want to be caught by the police, would you?"

"I don't want that. How about this, I give you some money, and you pretend you didn't see anything?" Chen Yu looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sneer.

He had figured out what these two were after; it was nothing more than wanting some money.

Fusang was truly in chaos now, and these two were just trying to loot a burning house. It was just that they had picked the wrong target today; for the sake of a little money, they were truly throwing their lives away.

"Kid, you'd better be honest. You're lucky to have run into us." The security guard holding the handcuffs pointed at the woman on the ground: "A crime of passion? If we send you to the police station, you're going to jail."

"Do you find it normal to see a dead person?" Chen Yu couldn't quite understand these two people. If this were in Huaxia, it would already be a massive incident, but in their eyes, it seemed like an everyday occurrence.

"A dead person? Too many people have died these past few days. We've transported bodies to the funeral home and seen with our own eyes hundreds of corpses piled up outside." The fat man said: "The world is in chaos now, so friend, we'll pretend we didn't see what you did today. Why don't you show some sincerity?"

"That's right, if you don't take the chance to scrape some up during chaotic times, when will you?" the other security guard also said. The two exchanged a malicious smile, then looked at Chen Yu.

Their meaning was already very clear: buddy, we didn't expose you, which is decent enough; why don't you show some sincerity?

"You guys are going a bit too far. I didn't kill her." Chen Yu shook his head.

"The police station doesn't care about that now. Because there are too many homicide cases, they are under a lot of pressure. As long as someone is dead, they are definitely going to find someone to take the fall," the fat security guard sneered.

"So that's how it is, no wonder." Chen Yu nodded. He relaxed both hands, and with a *click*, the handcuffs fell from his wrists.

"What do you want to do? Don't move." The two were startled. Neither of them expected Chen Yu to be able to pull a trick like this. They hurriedly retreated, and one of them reached back to grip the pistol and aim it at Chen Yu.

"A blank, right? Who are you trying to scare?" Chen Yu sneered and glanced at the fat man holding the gun.

The fat man's hand immediately began to tremble. To say he wasn't afraid would be a lie. The reason he dared to threaten Chen Yu earlier was, first, that Chen Yu was handcuffed, and second, that they had a gun.

But now? The gun in his hand had been exposed as containing blanks, and Chen Yu had inexplicably unlocked his own handcuffs. If this woman had truly been hollowed out by Chen Yu, then facing such a Demon, they were really no match.

"Don't come any closer. If you take one more step, I'll shoot." The fat man shivered, his hand shaking incessantly, truly afraid that this guy might go off.

"Then why don't you fire a shot and let me see?" Chen Yu glanced at him with a sneer.

"I..." The fat man gritted his teeth, about to pull the trigger.

But just at this moment, Chen Yu's pupils shrank slightly, and he instinctively took a step back.

The security guard beside the fat man turned his head to look, was so scared he fell to the ground with a *thud*, and then crawled backward several steps.

The fat man's expression changed. From the look on his companion's face, he knew that something extraordinary must have appeared behind him.

He gripped the gun in his hand tightly, not even daring to move.

He felt his scalp go numb. Even without turning his head, he could sense the danger behind him.

Just as he hesitated whether to turn and look, a black shadow suddenly loomed over his head. Before he could even let out a scream, *crack*... a monster standing twelve feet tall swallowed his head in one bite.

His body slumped limply to the ground. The security guard who had been scared to the ground watched everything before him with eyes splitting from terror. Suddenly, he felt his heart jump wildly, then he clutched his chest and fell straight to the ground, motionless.

One had his head bitten off, the other was scared to death; this robbery duo was truly something else.

Chen Yu shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't have the chance to save them, but he felt that in these chaotic times, since the two dared to take such risks to get rich, they certainly weren't good people, so he wouldn't waste the effort to protect them. He could only blame their bad Life.

Following that, the monster took a few steps forward, its body emerging from the darkness.

It could be seen that this Heart-Devouring Ghost stood over a zhang tall, its entire body covered in dark green skin, with incredibly thick arms and sharp claws for hands.

Its eyes glowed with a green light, and it looked at Chen Yu with an indifferent expression.

This guy had heavy killing intent. Chen Yu stared at it, and Lichen had already appeared in his hand.

Although this Heart-Devouring Ghost was not the progenitor, it already belonged to an advanced existence. This meant that during this period, the ranks of the Heart-Devouring Ghosts had been growing, making them extremely difficult to deal with.

The Heart-Devouring Ghost took a few steps forward, its green-glowing eyes fixed on Chen Yu, as if it were looking at something insignificant. Finally, it let out a roar, and with a *roar*, it lunged at Chen Yu.

It could see that the Chen Yu before it seemed to be very delicious, and Chen Yu's physique also appeared to be very strong, which was exactly what it was in urgent need of.

Chen Yu didn't indulge it either; he flicked Lichen in his hand and slashed forward with the sword.

With a *hiss*, a spray of green blood splattered out. Moreover, Lichen had extremely strong lethality against such things; as a wound appeared, white smoke began to hiss from the injury on the Heart-Devouring Ghost.

It roared and retreated a few steps, then looked at Chen Yu with an incredulous gaze, as if it hadn't expected that a human who was clearly so weak it could have killed him with one slap could suddenly become so powerful.

After retreating a few steps, the creature sized Chen Yu up, as if studying its opponent. After studying for a moment, it seemed to feel that Chen Yu might not be much of a threat after all.

So it roared in anger, then extended its massive palm and swiped at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu's figure flashed, disappearing from where he stood, and immediately after, he swung his sword. *Hiss*... one of the Heart-Devouring Ghost's arms was severed by Chen Yu.

The Heart-Devouring Ghost let out a roar and hurriedly retreated a step, wanting to put some distance between itself and Chen Yu, but Chen Yu no longer gave it the chance. With a seal of Lichen, *puff*, a massive head flew high into the air.

Its body fell to the ground with a *thud*, struggled a few times, and then stopped moving. Immediately after, its body turned into a wisp of blue smoke and vanished.

Chen Yu let out a long breath and put away Lichen. He saw that a pile of ashes had appeared where the Heart-Devouring Ghost had just fallen.

Lichen's lethality was too strong, so after this guy died, it was directly swept into ashes.

Leaning down to take a look, Chen Yu pondered for a moment, then decided to call Chuan Naizi to inform her of the situation here.
