Smoke and dust filled the sky.
One could no longer decipher the appearance of the old town.
Lu Ming looked on coldly. His heart even ached a little.
“Is this how a Krypton gold cultivator feels?”
Lu Ming felt his heart ache a little.
What was the concept of two hundred Demolition Cards? Did he know how much energy had been depleted? Combining the two, the production cost was already close to millions of yuan, much less their actual value!
Just this move alone had emptied all his savings!
The last time he felt so heart-broken was when he accidentally pressed the wrong button and purchased something at 688 yuan from a mobile game application. At that time, he was so furious that he nearly smashed the cell phone on the ground…
Each time everyone shouted ‘Rich guy’, his heart would ache.
But now…
This was a million yuan!
“Why would he do that?”
Lu Ming gave a long sigh.
If it was possible, he would never cast such an attack…
It was too much of a loss!
This time, it should come to an end.
Lu Ming was in a despondent mood.
“Save me…”
There were sounds of wailing.
Lu Ming followed the noise and was stunned. It was the bald-headed leader of the Sharks Sect!
He was still alive!
Although he was alive, he was in a miserable state. His entire body was covered with bruises caused by the trampling bulls. At this moment, he was trapped under the ruins. Both his arms were trembling and holding onto a piece of rubble above him.
What a tenacious survival ability!
Lu Ming was surprised.
Really.
This was a three-star cultivator, indeed!
Tsk tsk tsk…
In the past, he had been lucky that Fu Hongming was buried alive in the mine cave. If it had been outside, he could have been unhurt! Look at this person… He had been trampled by twenty thousand bulls!
Yet, he was still alive!
He could not deny the strength and tenacity of energy cultivators.
“Save me… I’ll give you money… All my money.”
The bald-headed leader pleaded.
Both his arms were trembling like a colorful video card.
“No,” Lu Ming sneered. Who cared about that little bit of money?
“In the future…
I will be good. Really. Give me a chance.
I will rat out all those people involved and hand them over to the police… Trust me,” said the bald-headed leader.
“Really?”
Lu Ming swept his gaze over him, his eyes shining brightly.
“Okay.”
The bald-headed leader was ecstatic.
“Alright, wait here.”
Lu Ming walked to him. “Hang on with both your arms. Hold it up well. I will pull you out slowly.”
“Okay, okay, okay.”
The bald-headed leader was very emotional.
Lu Ming gingerly walked to him and gripped his body.
“Slowly pull me towards the outside. That will do,” The bald-headed leader reminded.
“Well…”
Lu Ming contemplated for a while, seemingly looking for a good position.
Afterward…
Whoosh!
The bald-headed leader felt his body become light. When he recovered his senses, he discovered that Lu Ming was already outside and in Lu Ming’s hands was the card bag that was on his waist earlier!
The bald-headed leader looked dumbfounded.
“I think we should give them another chance.”
Lu Ming pointed at the card bag and exclaimed with regret, “After all, they are all new cards…”
“Damn you…”
The bald-headed leader wanted to curse and swear.
However, along with his loss of strength, both his arms could not hang on any further. The rubble that was already hung loose suddenly collapsed and buried him.
Lu Ming seemed to have heard the sound of a watermelon bursting.
“Hehe.”
Lu Ming only sneered.
He opened the card bag and was pleasantly surprised to discover many high level cards in it. He had expected to. Since the bald-headed guy was a three-star cultivator, these were all three-star cards!
He had recouped his losses!
Lu Ming was overjoyed.
He had not spent this hundred million yuan for nothing!
He should leave now.
Lu Ming stood up.
It was just that…
At the sight of the rubble in front of him, Lu Ming had a hunch that something was missing in this abandoned town… Something was missing in that sky of smoke and dust.
What was it?
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment.
Oh, right.
He took a wooden stick by the side, tore a cloth and hung it on the stick. He then stuck it into the ruins and allowed that piece of broken cloth to sway with the wind…
Very good. It was perfect now.
Lu Ming was very satisfied.
He checked whether the people from the Sharks Sect were still alive once again.
Well…
There was pin-drop silence. Most likely, no one else survived.
As they were within the scope of attack of the twenty thousand bulls, he did not think that they could survive. Even the bald-headed leader of the group, which was the strongest amongst them, was already in such a state. How could the rest of the people be alive? However, when he surveyed the remaining area, he saw a young man trapped under a piece of rubble. The rubble above his head was about to fall.
It was him.
Lu Ming’s gaze converged.
This was the person who had his eyes on Little Lu Ming and caused this situation to go so badly!
This was the person who foiled his bulls’ air strike! If not for him, it was impossible that he would have destroyed the entire old town in such a large-scale manner!
Tsk tsk…
He was still alive?
“Krypton gold cultivators like you are really strong.”
Lu Ming was filled with emotions.
“You won’t save me, right?”
Wang Xuan understood as soon as he met Lu Ming’s eyes.
“Hehe.”
Lu Ming gave a friendly smile. “Why are you asking me since you know?”
“My name is Wang Xuan. I am… Forget it. You won’t know it even if I say it. I have a four-star card with me.”
Wang Xuan endured the pain. “If I die, I will be destroyed. However, if you can promise me one thing, I will give you the card!”
“What is it?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“Go and save a lady.”
Wang Xuan was filled with regret. “She should not have come to this kind of place… The old town has now turned into this ruin. It is very dangerous for her… Please, help me save her.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
He raised his brow. Seemingly, the matter was different from what he had imagined?
This young man…
“Okay,” Lu Ming agreed casually.
“Thank you. This is for you.”
Wang Xuan threw out that four-star card to him directly.
Yes.
He simply threw a four-star card to Lu Ming.
He was so forthright?
This did not seem to be the correct way.
“Brother, have you considered that I may leave after taking the card?” Lu Ming said in surprise.
Wang Xuan was stunned for a while and immediately turned pale after. “You… You won’t, right?”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Fine. This person did not consider this point at all.
He finally understood.
He was not someone from the Sharks Sect!
He heard that this person had a noble status. Most likely, he did not lack any money since he was young and always had someone taking care of him when he was out. Hence, he was not that experienced in such matters.
Looking at his way of doing things, he seemed very much like those silly lads who would be fooled by Fan Eryan…
“I beg you, please!”
Now that he had lost his chips, Wang Xuan began to feel nervous. His face was flustered and he pleaded continuously, “Save her… She is innocent. I don’t want to harm anyone… I thought that I could protect her… Please.”
“Lu Min, right?” Lu Ming asked.
“Do you know her?”
Wang Xuan was shocked.
“She is already dead,” Lu Ming said calmly. “Because Fan Eryan forced himself on her and she refused to abide. She committed suicide today. I came here to seek revenge for her. Do you understand now?”
“How can that be…”
“Sorry, sorry.”
Wang Xuan muttered to himself.
He was shivering all over and suddenly wailed loudly.
Lu Ming looked at the rubble that was able to fall. He went over and pulled this man out. He then dumped him by the road and left. He left him to breakdown emotionally and shout things like ‘sorry’.
These people…
They did not deserve much pity.
He had already been very kind to save him from the ruins.
What if he had had his eyes on another lady instead of Little Lu Ming?
Someone would really die.
…
In Qing Ming City.
“Damn. Are you kidding me?”
Zhang Wei was furious.
This was the twentieth time that he had received a prank call!
A while ago.
When he and the operator were having a heated and exciting debate about the topic of whether the bedding in the hotel meets the standards, the damned calls kept coming to him without a moment of rest!
It was vexing!
He had to pick up the call!
No matter how vexed he felt, he had to pick it up!
Even if there were a hundred prank calls to the police, he would have to pick them up. What if one of them was a true case?
His damned sense of responsibility!
It was just that…
Very regrettably, this was also a prank call.
What a joke!
The old town was gone?
Damn, did they think that it was playing house? That it would disappear just like that?
However, when more and more such calls occurred, Zhang Wei could only carry his doubts and go to the old town to check it out. He was instantly stupefied.
The old town…
There was nothing there.
It was really gone.
There were only the crumbled ruins as well as endless smoke and dust.
The entire town was mourning.
During the day, they would occasionally come here several times a day.
They were very clear about the dark truths hidden in the old town. However, due to many reasons, they did not have the rights to investigate this place…
However, now…
There was nothing.
It was all gone.
The old town was very special.
It had many low-rise buildings. There were a few high-rise ones but they were all abandoned and not in use.
For the cultivators who were used to fleeing, only houses in which underground tunnels could be dug and with windows that they could jump out of to escape were considered good places of accommodation.
But now…
There were only ruins.
“Send me… to the hospital.”
A one-eyed man under the ruins begged.
Zhang Wei took a glance at him but ignored him. If he did not guess it wrong, this person was the second-in-command of the Moronic Sharks Sect who had murdered someone last month.
“Save me…”
It was another sound of wailing.
A head emerged from under a particular building.
Hehe.
Zhang Wei laughed.
Wasn’t this the Brother Mao from the Idiotic Sharks Sect?
He had come here a total of four times for investigation but to no avail. No one would cooperate with him then. Now, all of them were appearing.
“One by one.”
Zhang Wei was elated. He called all the colleagues in the police station to come over to help. “Come, come, come. Give us your fingerprints and tell us everything you’ve done before we save you.”
“Not going to? Fine, you can continue to lie there.”
Zhang Wei was full of smiles.
“Oh, someone dug a tunnel and he is still inside. Do we save him?” One of his colleagues asked.
“The tunnel also collapsed?”
Zhang Wei was taken aback.
“The tunnel is fine.”
That man threw up his hands. “However, the house at the exit of the tunnel has collapsed. That man is alive and is thus pleading for help. I have checked. He was involved in a robbery…”
“Keep him in there first then,” Zhang Wei sneered.
He had seen all kinds of things today.
“What is the death rate?”
“It’s very strange. Besides the Sharks Sect which is annihilated, everyone else only suffered some injuries. However, the severity of their wounds differs.”
“Check on who did this,” said Zhang Wei.
They began to investigate the truth but felt more dumbstruck as they did. After detaining everyone, the few colleagues shared their investigation results and were all dumbfounded.
“Someone said they saw a huge shadow appear in the smoke and dust like a demon…”
“Someone said they saw bulls charging?”
“Someone said they saw bulls dropping from the sky.”
“Also, someone said that when they were sleeping, the house suddenly collapsed. Fortunately, they were cultivators with swift reactions. Otherwise, they would have been buried alive.”
Everyone had diverging accounts.
Hell… what kind of testimonies were these?
The bulls were charging in the sky? Why didn’t they do so in your house?
“Check again!”
Zhang Wei was infuriated.
Afterward…
After checking for the whole day, they could not find anything more.
Most of the old town had been ruined and they actually did not know who did it! In the end, the investigation report was all about bulls.
Bulls that engulfed the sky and ground!
Consolidating their accounts, the writer in the police station briefly described:
Millions of bulls appeared out of nowhere in the sky and fell like air-dropped cannons, ravaging the town like a ferocious beast. Some of them surged out from the ground like cockroaches. They were huge in size. Flashes of lighting and loud thundrs followed them wherever they went. Any place that they tread ended up in a big mess!
Damn!
Hell… what kind of a testimony was this?!
