Chapter 62 - 59: Oh no, I have become high-level ingredients
The entire Yinzhou City was filled with various noises, ghost wails, human cries, quarrels, roars, screams...
Even with Wu Hen’s exceptional hearing, he couldn’t process the massive amount of information in such a short time.
So even though he was just a courtyard away from Yu Yu initially, he couldn’t immediately realize that the soot-covered girl was his sister.
What was worse, Yu Yu was a little mute; she couldn’t yell "Brother, help me, I am Yu Yu."
Fortunately, his sister was always a clever one.
She pretended to be weak and harmless, guiding the vulture man to say the word "mute."
Yu Yu knew her brother had extraordinary hearing, but how could she convey the message that she was Yu Yu and that she was in danger?
She believed, as long as someone mentioned "mute," her brother with exceptional hearing would surely catch that information.
She also believed that whether or not Wu Hen recognized her at this moment, upon knowing there was a mute girl nearby, he would kill his way over, even if he was unsure if it was really his sister.
In fact, her brother was extremely sensitive to the word "mute," whether at home or in Desert Dust!
With tearful eyes, Yu Yu looked at her brother and felt that his demeanor was completely different from usual. His entire body was shrouded in a layer of black void like a Demon God. That figure within the void was as majestic as an endless miraculous mountain, producing an extremely powerful shock in one’s heart!
"Brother, are you this powerful in Desert Dust?"
Yu Yu had witnessed the Hundred Demons of Yinzhou, especially the terrifying Yin Dragon, which had overturned her understanding of the world. She once thought that the Yin Dragon was the most powerful and terrifying existence in Desert Dust...
But looking at her brother Wu Hen at this moment, the Yin Dragon seemed like a blood-red little earthworm, completely out of its league!
"Spare me... spare... spare me..." The vulture man struggled to utter these words, "I... I was just following orders."
"Following orders?" Wu Hen’s gaze was cold as an ice pond, and he asked indifferently, "Whose orders?"
"Lord Red Face," said the vulture man.
When mentioning Lord Red Face, a trace of luck appeared on the vulture man’s face. After all, many Spirit Awakeners knew Lord Red Face’s power. Offending any of his men would surely result in retribution.
"You go down first, and I’ll send your Lord Red Face down later to slap you!"
"Go down where?" The vulture man was dumbfounded by the words.
"Of course, down to the animal path of reincarnation!" Wu Hen said.
As he spoke, Wu Hen’s pitch-black right hand slowly grew larger. It was no longer just holding the man’s throat but could now grasp his entire body!
The massive black jade claw gripped the man like a long maggot, and as Wu Hen gradually applied force, the vulture man’s bones were all broken!
"Crunch! Crunch!"
After the bones shattered, the black jade hand continued to press, crushing the man’s internal organs!
In extreme pain, the man finally died after being mangled into a ball of flesh. Even then, Wu Hen had not vented his anger completely and casually tossed the lump of crushed bones and flesh onto the long street.
The scent of the meatballs immediately attracted a group of Crying Ghosts. They looked like large babies wearing loincloths and pounced upon the living flesh, devouring it greedily.
In no time, the vulture man was eaten clean. The ghost babies looked hopefully at the courtyard, expecting more to be thrown out.
Cai Jinlin and Fei Ying had just arrived, astonished that a Spirit Awakened Night Ghost was killed by Wu Hen in such a short time. What shocked them most was a layer of powerful, mysterious black void gradually dissipating from Wu Hen’s body, as if the Demon God inside him had briefly awakened and then was sealed again.
"This guy is definitely not as simple as he appears!"
Cai Jinlin and Fei Ying exchanged glances, realizing their previous respect for Wu Hen was too low.
He instinctively wanted to peck Yu Yu’s chubby cheek but saw it was covered in soot... Never mind, it’s his sister; he didn’t mind!
...
They got to work. Cai Jinlin and Fei Ying started rallying the scattered teammates.
They instructed them to provoke the Vulture Party and lure them to Chamber of Commerce Ancient Street. The sturdy and tall buildings, crisscrossing streets, and many ancient walls there would be suitable for maneuvering and dealing with both the Yin Dragon and the Vulture Party.
Wu Hen and Yu Yu went to provoke the Yin Dragon, luring it and the lamp makers to the Chamber of Commerce Ancient Street.
"Alright, walk on your own. Were you legless before you found me?" Wu Hen placed the startled big baby on the ground.
Yu Yu looked a bit aggrieved. She had worked very hard to survive until now without any praise.
Wu Hen was speechless. It was clear that Yu Yu had been in Yinzhou for some time.
Seeing her brother, she suddenly acted like she couldn’t take care of herself?
And why did she smell like she’d just taken a Heavenly Light pill?
In front of her brother, she acted helpless, but away from his sight, she turned into a fierce leader, playing with Hundred Demons, tricking vultures, and defeating strong foes?
Wu Hen seriously suspected that even if left alone in Otherworldly Dust, she could thrive and even surpass those so-called Pioneers!
"I wonder if my guess is correct. The stronger the creatures in Desert Dust, the more energy they consume. So, they never act aimlessly. Each action must replenish the corresponding level of energy, or they have to feed in a more energy-efficient form, meaning they are not as powerful," Yu Yu said.
Wu Hen slowly walked, surprised by Yu Yu’s analysis.
Little Yi in Wu Hen’s body was nodding madly in agreement!
Yeah, right, exactly!
Why hadn’t his host, Wu Hen, understood this deeply, always awakening the Black Divine Death Sword at the slightest provocation!
The Black Divine Death Sword consumed a lot of energy even while idle!
Below Heavenly Light, using the Black Divine Death Sword was a big loss!
Wu Hen looked at his right hand and then his left hand.
He understood—Little Yi was in energy-saving mode, while the Holy Father was in full-performance mode.
"So, if the Yin Dragon fails to capture the right level of prey, it will be forced into energy-saving mode. Energy-saving mode means it disassembles, and the lamp makers spread out to hunt for food." Wu Hen understood Yu Yu’s plan.
"So, to force the Yin Dragon into energy-saving mode, we must disrupt it, causing it to fail in capturing high-level prey. This way, it will enter energy-saving mode quicker!" Yu Yu gestured clearly and logically to Wu Hen.
"Yes, it indeed prefers high-level prey," Wu Hen nodded.
Suddenly, Yu Yu wrinkled her small nose.
She seemed to have smelled something strange.
Wu Hen also heard very faint footsteps, as synchronized and steady as a group of leopards stalking their prey!
Yu Yu’s eyes widened, her hands waving frantically.
"It’s the Yin Dragon! It’s nearby!"
Wu Hen immediately picked up Yu Yu and ran!
Oh no!
They had become high-level prey!
