110: Chapter 110 News about Liu's Father and Mother
Wang Hu knelt on the obsidian floor, the agonizing pain of his completely shattered kneecaps causing his entire body to convulse.
The oppressive weight of the Divine Realm was like an ancient iceberg, ruthlessly pressing down on his spine and stripping him of even the strength to raise his head.
Behind him, those more than one thousand aggressive invaders were currently collapsing to the ground in large swathes, just like dumplings dropped into a boiling pot.
Those with slightly weaker strength had their bodies directly ground into meat paste by the invisible pressure, blooming dazzling splashes of blood across the square.
The so-called thousand-man expedition didn't even touch a corner of Lin Qing's clothes before they became a pack of dead dogs scattered across the Divine Realm square.
Lin Qing looked down from above at Wang Hu, whose face was covered in blood, his tone devoid of any discernible joy or anger.
"Is that all the skill you have?"
Wang Hu raised his head with difficulty.
He saw the more than three hundred cold-expressioned members standing behind Lin Qing.
He saw the ponytail-wearing girl holding a giant sword amidst fluttering battle flags.
He saw the cold and glamorous young girl toying with a crimson dagger.
The auras radiating from those people—any single one of them—were not weaker than his, the number one expert of District 128!
"You... What kind of monster are you, anyway..." Wang Hu's voice was hoarse, filled with despair.
Lin Qing snapped his fingers.
"Bai Nian, Xixi."
"Deal with them, but leave a few alive for questioning."
There was no mobilization, no nonsense.
Bai Nian stepped forward, the pojun longsword pointing diagonally at the ground as the illusory character "Po" battle flag unfolded behind her with a booming roar!
"Kill."
A single word heralded the beginning of the massacre.
Under the blessing of the [Array-Breaking Battle Intent], the fifty Combat Group members transformed into starving wolves, pouncing toward the immobilized flock of sheep.
Su Xixi moved the fastest. She leaped down from the high platform, and the Obliteration Blade in her hand carved out a dazzling crimson arc.
Before the blade even arrived, a terrifying high temperature accompanied by the soul-distorting power of rules exploded with a deafening roar!
The dozen or so burly men charging at the very front had their bodies and weapons instantly vaporized, leaving only scorched marks on the ground.
An Mumu had been ordered not to enter the battlefield.
Yet she still couldn't resist the urge.
Standing on the high platform, she raised her fair fingers and gave a flick.
A wisp of chaotic black light plunged into the densest part of the crowd, silently expanding.
The space within a five-meter diameter suddenly collapsed, and more than twenty people vanished into thin air, leaving not even a single drop of blood behind.
This was an execution without a shred of suspense.
In less than five minutes, of the more than one thousand invaders, fewer than two hundred remained.
The remaining people completely collapsed, dropping their weapons and kowtowing frantically.
"Spare us! Big shot, spare us!"
"We surrender! We are willing to be slaves!"
With a wave of Bai Nian's hand, the Combat Group ceased their attacks and skillfully began cleaning up the battlefield.
Lin Qing slowly walked up to Wang Hu.
He stepped his toe onto Wang Hu's broken hand and applied a slight bit of force.
"Now, answer my question."
Wang Hu convulsed from the pain and nodded frantically.
Just at this moment, that vermilion double-happiness door in the atrium of the Divine Realm let out a deafening explosion!
Boom!!!
The heavy doors were blown open by a gloomy and terrifying force.
Thick red mist erupted like a volcanic eruption, crazily sweeping outward and instantly dyeing the starry sky of half the Divine Realm an ominous blood red!
The red mist condensed in midair, and Liu Meini descended out of thin air clad in a bright red bridal gown.
She was barefoot with disheveled hair, and that peerlessly beautiful face completely lacked its usual composure, replaced entirely by an out-of-control anxiety and madness.
"Sister Mei, what happened?" Lin Qing hurried forward and asked with concern.
Liu Meini didn't look at him; her gaze locked firmly onto Wang Hu, who was sprawled on the ground, her chest heaving violently.
"On his body... is the blood of my mom and dad!"
Her voice was trembling, carrying an unprecedented, feral viciousness.
The surrounding air abruptly plummeted to freezing point.
The gazes of Bai Nian, Su Xixi, and the others snapped uniformly onto Wang Hu.
Lin Qing's expression sank.
He turned around and walked step by step up to Wang Hu.
Wang Hu was nearly suffocated by the terrifying pressure emanating from Liu Meini, his entire body pressed flat against the ground, unable even to lift his head.
"Her father, Liu Xunnan, where is he?" Lin Qing's voice was very soft, yet it exuded a killing intent that chilled one to the bone marrow.
"I... I don't know what you're talking about..."
Wang Hu's eyes darted around, tears and snot streaming down, "I don't know anyone with the surname Liu at all..."
Lin Qing raised his foot and stepped onto Wang Hu's other arm.
Crack!
The sound of bone shattering was clearly audible.
"Ah!!!" Wang Hu shrieked miserably.
Lin Qing didn't stop. His toe traced along Wang Hu's broken arm, grinding down inch by inch.
"Think clearly before you speak. You carry their blood aura on your body, which means not only have you seen them in the past few days, but you also laid hands on them."
"I'll count to ten."
"Ten."
Crack! His shoulder blade shattered.
"Nine."
Crack! Three ribs broke.
"I'll talk! I'll talk!!!"
Wang Hu completely broke down; the torture of having his bones ground to pieces inch by inch was more terrifying than death.
"In... in our 'blood bank'..." Wang Hu stammered out a sentence.
The movement under Lin Qing's foot paused: "Make it clear!"
"We... captured a lot of people..."
Wang Hu stammered out his confession while coughing up blood.
"Some older ones without talent were locked up together... treated as 'blood pigs'..."
"Outside our dormitory building in the Dead Forest, there is a blood-colored altar... Every day, by sacrificing the blood of living people, we can exchange it for high-tier supplies and water..."
"A few days ago... we indeed caught an old couple surnamed Liu... They were assigned to the area I'm responsible for..."
Wang Hu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, not daring to look at Liu Meini.
"That man... in order to protect his wife, had his legs broken by me and my subordinates... The blood... was splattered on my shoes back then..."
Dead silence.
The entire Divine Realm square fell into a death-like silence.
Veins bulged on the back of Su Xixi's hand holding the Obliteration Blade.
Bai Nian's gaze was as cold as ice.
Liu Meini stood in place, her figure swaying slightly as the red mist around her churned frantically, emitting a shrill, miserable scream.
Lin Qing closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, nothing was left in his pupils except a bottomless pitch-black abyss.
"Are they still alive?"
"Al... alive... Blood pigs can't die; once they die, they aren't worth anything anymore..."
Wang Hu kowtowed desperately, "Big shot, I was wrong! I'll lead the way! I'll send them back completely unscathed! Please just let me go!"
Lin Qing didn't speak again.
He raised his foot, but didn't step down. He bent down and pressed a finger against the center of Wang Hu's brow.
A wisp of chaotic black light burrowed into Wang Hu's body like bone-gnawing maggots.
"Want to die? That's letting you off too easy."
Lin Qing's voice didn't carry a shred of warmth, "Now, you are my dog. I will make you watch with your own eyes how your 'blood bank' and altar turn into flying ash bit by bit. Lead the way."
Wang Hu trembled violently all over, the last trace of resistance in his eyes completely extinguishing, leaving only pure, bone-deep terror.
Lin Qing withdrew his finger, stood up, walked over to Liu Meini, and reached out to embrace her shoulders, which were trembling from anger and worry.
Feeling the temperature of his embrace, Liu Meini's eyes turned red, her fingers clutching tightly onto his clothes.
"Don't be afraid. Whatever I promised you, I will definitely accomplish." Lin Qing's voice was very steady.
He raised his head and looked ahead across the square. That cross-region teleporter connecting to District 128 had not yet closed.
"Bai Nian, Xixi, leave the matters here to you two."
