44: Chapter 44 Strange Beasts! A Sea of ​​Killing Intent!

Once entangled with the Yaoxing Society, it is basically a death sentence for one's family.

The Yaoxing Society does not just profit from the poor; they target the rich as well.

Li Mo had heard that many wealthy individuals in the capital had gone bankrupt due to the predatory behavior of the Yaoxing Society.

The key is that they also have connections in the legitimate world, so no one can do anything about them.

The debt Aunt owed probably had not been outstanding for long, which is why these people were only splashing paint; if it had been longer, they would likely have torn the house down.

Li Mo calmed down and said indifferently, "I will take on her debt!"

Hearing Li Mo say this, the thugs immediately looked up at him.

Seeing that Li Mo was only eighteen or nineteen years old, he appeared extremely naive in the eyes of these old hands, yet he dared to say such things to them.

"Yo! This kid! You've got guts!"

"Interesting, but let me tell you, little guy, this family now owes us five hundred thousand with interest! Can you afford to pay that?"

Five hundred thousand New Credits was not a small sum.

Li Mo could not produce it at the moment, but after this mission was completed, the reward from his superiors would be substantial, and he could also earn money by hunting exotic beasts.

In the future, this five hundred thousand New Credits would be child's play for Li Mo.

Therefore, Li Mo said, "I cannot produce the five hundred thousand for the time being, but her debt can be transferred to me. Regardless of the interest you demand, I will pay it all back in the future."

As he said this, Li Mo's expression shifted, and his sharp aura startled the few thugs.

"If you do not agree, we can settle this with a fight! In any case, do not harass this family again."

Hearing Li Mo's words, the thugs all laughed.

Although they were thugs, they were all members of the Yaoxing Society.

The Yaoxing Society never recruited useless people!

Do not be fooled by the fact that they were just debt collectors; they all possessed the strength of Foundation Establishment Realm martial artists.

To the people in these slums, they were quite intimidating.

"Kid, you've got guts! You dare to challenge us to a fight?"

"Kid! Are you truly not afraid of death?"

The thugs mocked Li Mo, but only the leader of the thugs noticed Li Mo's extraordinary nature.

This leader had a cultivation of the ninth grade of the Foundation Establishment Realm, yet he felt that his own pressure was faintly being suppressed by Li Mo.

If they were to fight one-on-one, he might not be Li Mo's match.

Therefore, the leader immediately shouted, "Shut your mouths! You bunch of short-sighted idiots!"

Although this leader was involved in the underworld, he was quite principled.

He patted Li Mo on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, I don't have the final say in this matter. If you have the guts, follow me to the Yaoxing Society to see our boss; only he can agree to the debt transfer!"

It was just a manager of the Yaoxing Society; what did Li Mo have to fear?

"Let's go."

Li Mo did not enter the house but instead turned and followed these thugs toward the headquarters of the Yaoxing Society.

The Yaoxing Society was actually also known as the Yaoxing Group, and its headquarters was a building in the most prosperous district of the capital.

Li Mo had heard of the Yaoxing Society for a long time but had never seen it with his own eyes.

By this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the leader of the thugs actually took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Li Mo.

"Little brother, my name is Zhao Yi. You seem quite brave. May I ask how to address you?"

"Don't misunderstand; I usually like to make friends, and debt collection is just a means of making a living! If you are willing to tell me, that's fine; if not, so be it!"

Li Mo saw that Zhao Yi did not seem to have any ill intentions. Besides, one shouldn't strike a smiling person, and Zhao Yi was indeed quite principled.

Therefore, Li Mo nodded and stated his name: "Li Mo."

"Good! Brother Li Mo, we can consider ourselves acquainted today. I will do my best to help with your debt transfer! But if our boss does not agree, there is nothing I can do!"

Li Mo was well aware that Zhao Yi was not the one who made the decisions. He intended to be polite before resorting to force; after all, it was Aunt who had borrowed the money first. However, if the Yaoxing Society proved unreasonable, Li Mo would not be polite either.

Just then, Li Mo felt his hair stand on end for no apparent reason. He looked around and realized that at some point, they had walked onto a quiet street.

This road was considered a relatively secluded area within the capital, and there were no residential areas nearby.

Although nothing had happened, Li Mo felt that something was wrong.

The next moment, a gust of wind blew past. Before Li Mo could react, one of the thugs beside him was sent flying, as if he had been struck by something.

"What the hell?"

"What the hell! What's going on! Liuzi! Are you alright!"

"Did I just hear a beast roar?"

The lighting on this street was extremely dim, and seeing this, Zhao Yi hurriedly took out a flashlight.

Then, they all saw the miserable state of the thug named Liuzi!

It looked as if he had been mauled by something; there was almost no intact flesh on his entire body. Even more terrifying was that he had been disemboweled, and his internal organs had been completely hollowed out!

"Ugh!"

Even though they were thugs, they had never seen such a scene, and they vomited on the spot.

Li Mo was also deeply shocked. From the moment Liuzi was sent flying to when Zhao Yi turned on the flashlight, at most only a minute had passed!

How could Liuzi have been mauled to such an extent?

Judging by the wounds, these injuries could only have been caused by a beast; it was impossible for a human to have done this.

"What on earth is going on?" Li Mo was secretly alarmed.

Just then, Zhao Yi seemed to sense something and suddenly roared, "It's here!"

Zhao Yi then shone the flashlight into the distance!

Then, everyone saw an unbelievable monster...

This monster was unlike any known exotic beast, because it had no shape at all!

Its entire body was composed of darkness. In terms of shape, it looked like a lion, but it had no physical form; its entire body was shrouded in clusters of bottomless darkness.

At this moment, it was covered in blood, which was clearly Liuzi's!

"Roar!"

The strange exotic beast suddenly let out a roar; this must have been the beast roar someone had mentioned earlier.

The next moment, it charged toward the group.

Facing this unprecedented exotic beast, everyone was somewhat panicked, especially given how it had devoured Liuzi in an instant—it was simply inconceivable.

Fortunately, Zhao Yi shouted, "Everyone, don't be afraid! Avenge Liuzi! Kill it!"

With that, Zhao Yi took the lead and charged out. The next moment, his skin turned a brownish-tan color, looking incredibly hard.

This man's talent appeared to be of the Enhancement Type, capable of strengthening both attack and defense, and he seemed quite capable.

Facing the strange exotic beast, Zhao Yi immediately unleashed a set of fierce boxing techniques, and the thugs under him followed suit.

It was clear that this group of people had been working together for years; by joining forces, they actually managed to briefly suppress the strange exotic beast.

However, the terrifying thing was that although this exotic beast was forced to retreat by Zhao Yi and the others, there was not even the slightest sign of injury on its body.

This was to be expected; the creature had no physical body, so how could it be killed?

Human strength has its limits. Once the offensive from Zhao Yi and the others slowed down slightly, the strange exotic beast counterattacked.

In just a split second, it had bitten through the neck of one of them, killing him instantly!

"Goudan!"

Watching his brother die, Zhao Yi let out a roar of immense grief.

He was filled with rage and prepared to attack the strange exotic beast at any cost.

However, the strange exotic beast ignored him entirely and, the next moment, charged straight toward Li Mo!

Only then did Li Mo realize that the goal of this strange exotic beast had not been Zhao Yi and the thugs from the very beginning!

It was him!
