Chapter 699: Demon Creature Ambush

The Jingkou was sealed tight enough; that grandson Baozi had been ruthless at the time. With the Jingkou sealed, even if Liu Tong below were to wake up, he would most likely be unable to get out. That grandson was truly ruthless enough.

After some clearing, the debris at the Jingkou was finally cleaned away. One of Zhang Peng's bodyguards held a flashlight and shone it downward. After watching for a moment, he raised his head in confusion and said, "Young Master Zhang, there is no one inside."

"No one?" Chen Yu was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to take the flashlight and shine it toward the bottom of the well.

The well was not particularly deep, and because it had been dry for years, the bottom was full of rotting leaves; it was just that this small bottom of the well was completely empty.

"I'll go down and take a look." Chen Yu felt that something was wrong. He took the flashlight, flipped over from the Jingkou, and leaped to the bottom of the well.

The bottom of the well was not much larger than the Jingkou, and there were no passages leading anywhere else at the bottom. The girl's corpse had truly and certainly disappeared.

"There is no one at the bottom of the well." Chen Yu looked for a long time without finding any clues. He flipped back up and shouted in a deep voice, "Where exactly is the person?"

"I don't know! I clearly threw her down that night, and I haven't been back since I threw her down." Baozi also had a look of terror on his face.

"Then where is the corpse?" Zhang Peng was furious. He felt that Baozi was not telling the truth at all. He walked up and unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks on Baozi, beating the guy until his eyes rolled back.

"Are you going to talk or not?" Zhang Peng shouted.

"I don't know, I really don't know! What on earth is going on?" Baozi lay on the ground twitching; he was almost beaten to death.

"Looking at him, he really doesn't know." Chen Yu frowned and said, "This is strange. The Jingkou doesn't look like it has been touched by anyone, so why would the person inside have disappeared?"

"Mr. Chen, what should we do now?" Zhang Peng was at a loss.

"Wait for me to look around." Chen Yu scanned the surroundings and then entered the main hall of Guyue Temple.

Inside the main hall was a dilapidated statue of a deity, and the things inside were extremely cluttered. Because no one had come here for years, the place was covered in dust.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Chen Yu walked around the outside of the hall and suddenly discovered a trail of footprints behind the main hall.

These footprints must have been left by a woman. The other party had passed through here wearing light shoes; someone had indeed been here.

"That kid wasn't lying. They really did hide the person here before; someone has been here." Chen Yu said.

"Who on earth came here? Why would they take the girl's corpse away?" Zhang Peng was baffled.

"I don't know, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Since someone came here, it means that the girl might still be alive." Chen Yu said.

"Is she still alive?" Zhang Peng was both surprised and delighted. If the girl was still alive, then things would be easy to handle; otherwise, given his grandfather's temper, he would really send Zhang Yan to the police station.

"There is a Nunnery above. Let's go there and check the situation. Perhaps the people there saved the girl." Chen Yu pondered for a moment and said.

"Alright, let's go take a look." Zhang Peng nodded.

Just as the group was about to leave, a gust of wind suddenly struck. This wind was swirling with a sheet of black Qi, and within this black Qi, a daunting Demon Power was permeating.

"Everyone, be careful." Chen Yu's expression changed drastically. This Demon Power was not ordinary; it should be something formed from some kind of heaven and earth creation.

Everyone gathered together, back to back. This mass of demon wind swirled rapidly around the group, and a strange whistling sound came from within the demon wind, as if some kind of animal were screeching.

More importantly, there was a faint, sharp aura within the demon wind. This aura locked Chen Yu and the others firmly in place. Everyone's hair stood on end, as if they had been targeted by something.

And that thing inside the demon wind seemed to be a natural predator; it had treated everyone outside as prey.

Suddenly, the demon wind stopped. The masses of black Qi gathered in the temple courtyard, forming a ball of black Qi. Within the black Qi, there seemed to be an arrogant gaze, staring at the crowd with contempt.

Baozi was trembling with fear. Suddenly, he violently pushed away the bodyguard who was controlling him, then used all his strength to flee toward the temple entrance.

He could not stand the Demon Power in that ball of black Qi, and he wanted even more to break free from the control of Chen Yu and Zhang Peng.

His desire to survive was very strong. He ran madly toward the outside; the speed actually felt no less than a hundred-meter sprint.

Just as he was about to run out of the dilapidated temple gate, suddenly, a black shadow flashed by rapidly, and immediately after, several sharp claw marks formed in mid-air.

Several white claw marks flashed and vanished. Baozi's body suddenly stiffened, and then he stood on the spot, unable to move at all.

A look of horror appeared on his face. Suddenly, his head tilted to one side, and with a thud, it rolled onto the ground, while his body split into three sections and slid to the ground.

He had actually been dismembered by that unknown thing, and the other party's strength was extremely high. Baozi was a large, living person; although thin, he was very tall, yet the other party hadn't even revealed its form and had clawed him into three sections.

Zhang Peng and his bodyguards had expressions of horror on their faces. Everyone's backs were soaked in an instant. What on earth was that thing, to be so powerful as to instantly dismember a living person?

"So powerful." Chen Yu was also startled. He grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen was in his hand.

This time, a demon creature had appeared. Unlike the Ghost encountered in the past, this thing was born from the creation of heaven and earth and was something that had cultivated for many years with deep Daoist practice. He had to be careful.

Just at this moment, the air in front of them twisted, and then something half a person's height appeared before Chen Yu. This guy had a slender body and moved quickly; it had been hiding its form and standing beside the crowd all along.

Following the appearance of two blue, walnut-sized eyeballs, the creature's true form manifested before everyone's eyes.

This was a massive Li Hua cat. The reason it was called large was because its size was comparable to a Baozi, only from its head and the patterns on its body could one tell that it was a huge, incomparable kitty.

Everyone's scalp tingled. Zhang Peng was so frightened he nearly screamed out loud. Such a big kitty?

No wonder everyone had the feeling of being targeted just now. This fighter jet among cats before them had completely treated them all as prey.

As everyone knows, among the many breeds of cats, the Li Hua is the most capable of fighting. Although the probability of a small kitty killing you is low, it is not impossible.

What's more, the thing in front of them was a demon creature that had lived for who knows how many years. It took a leap, sprang up, and fiercely pounced toward Chen Yu.
