Chapter 634 – Such a large clam of clam meat
An Zheng flipped in from the back wall of the inn with Chen Shaobai’s yaksha umbrella and landed soundlessly. The Yaksha Umbrella could perfectly isolaterson’s aura and their body, but it could not block out sound. There was no such thing as absolute perfection in this world. If there was one, it was just an illusion. With An Zheng’s cultivation, landing on the ground soundlessly, was obviously not a difficult task.
He summoned a piece of Holy Fish Scale, and then his body gently floated to the ground. The Holy Fish Scale flew to his feet, and he stepped on the Holy Fish Scale as if he was walking on a flying saucer, circling around the backyard.
The backyard was normal, apart from the two servants who were cleaning it, there was no one else. An Zheng entered the inn through the open window in the backyard, and then floated towards the largest room.
On the roof of the inn, there waransparent figure that was almost like a snake slithering. If one did not pay close attention, one would not notice it at all. If this thing did not move, even An Zheng’s Heaven’s Eyes would not be able to see it. Only when it moved would one be able to see some small distortions that did not match the space around them.
Not long after An Zheng entered the inn, this thing also slipped into the inn, and wriggled like a large piece of meat.
An Zheng walked around the room of the relay station, but didn’t find anything. The relay station was very quiet, the servants inside all looked to be cleaning very orderly, but only occasionally talked softly, other than that, there was the sound of furniture being wiped.
Once An Zheng was certain that this place was safe, he prepared to return. However, he didn’t know why he had such a faint worry in his heart. He stopped again just as he was about to leave the house and listened.
After being refined by the purple flames, An Zheng’s body became extremely powerful, and his senses became extremely acute. Something that Heaven’s Eyes could not see, something that could not be seen, An Zheng decided to listen again.
He closed his eyes and concentrated.
All sorts of subtle sounds started to converge in An Zheng’s ears, and enter his brain to make their judgement.
To the left, the rustling sound was that of two servants wiping the windows, tables, and chairs. To the right, the faint sound of footsteps indicated that someone had walked past, and the blanket on the floor was very thick, and the sound of feet moving away from the blanket was very clear.
Someone was moving the furniture upstairs, and then the sound of a broom could be heard.
All these voices formed a scene in An Zheng’s mind.
It seemed that he still hadn’t discovered anything. An Zheng frowned, thinking, could it be that he was being paranoid?
Right at this moment, an even softer voice sounded in An Zheng’s ears. Something seemed to have crawled over it, on the right side of the stall. This thing should be very soft, so when it came into contact with the carpet, it did not make any sound, but it was very big, so An Zheng heard the sound of the fur on the carpet curving and lifting up.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked to the right. That place was empty. After the previous servant had walked over, there was no one else.
At this moment, a person and an unknown creature fell into a deadlock. An Zheng heard the sound of something existing, but he could not see it. The transparent object also seemed to have noticed the abnormality and stopped to explore its surroundings.
Only, An Zheng was looking, and that thing had no eyes. Its body should be a large clam without any facial features. However, when it sensed danger, many tiny hairs extended out from its body. They were even thinner than a human’s fur.
The fur was also transparent, but because it was too small, it couldn’t cause any changes in the light.
An Zheng stood there quietly, and the thing stopped. It sensed something, but was unable to discover An Zheng who was holding the yaksha umbrella. A man and a magical beast were both under the control of his senses.
An Zheng suddenly felt a light itch on his ear. It was very light, like a strand of hair had brushed past.
If it was anyone else, they would not have been alerted at all, but at this moment, An Zheng suddenly moved, and his body instantly moved out, he was already outside the window of the relay station.
In the instant he moved, a large ball of fur-like thing suddenly appeared in the room, and swept towards the location where An Zheng was at a moment ago. It instantly swept up together, and if An Zheng did not sense the danger and did not move, he might have been swept up by it. If those tiny hairs were to enter one’s facial features, even a powerful cultivator would be momentarily helpless.
“Humph!”
An Zheng coldly snorted, he kept the yaksha umbrella outside the relay station and pointed ahead with one hand. Dozens of Holy Fish Scale s flew out of his body and rushed into the house like spiraling blades. In a short moment, it had cut off all of the dense hair.
A squeaking sound could be heard, as if something was crying out in pain.
“Appear!”
An Zheng’s eyes turned cold, and his Heaven’s Eyes sent a surge of Orthodox Pure Yang’s energy formlessly into the house. The originally quiet room suddenly exploded into a ball of fire. That was an unstoppable power of the scarlet sun. The moment the flame appeared, it filled the entire room, and then screams rang out from within the room.
It was not the screams of one or two people, but more like the cries of a large group of people falling into a sea of fire at the same time. There were men, there were women, there were old people, and there were even children. The sound was very complicated and sharp. An Zheng felt a buzzing sound in his head, as though something had crawled in, and his head started to feel heavy.
“Monster!”
An Zheng reached out his right hand, and as his index and middle fingers joined together, he drew something in the air like he was drawing talismans. Following the movement of his finger, the flames in the room started to swirl around An Zheng’s finger like angry dragons.
The transparent object seemed to be unable to dodge, and it suddenly let out a cry as it materialized.
It really did look like a large clam, white and tender. It gave people a feeling of being extremely tasty, as long as it was placed on a metal plate and roasted. After it was forced to reveal itself by the raging flames of An Zheng’s Orthodox Pure Yang, this thing’s body started to squirm, roll after roll, and then, as if it suddenly wanted to vomit, it spat out something.
An Zheng frowned slightly, because what the clam meat that seemed to be around three to four meters long vomited out was actually a person.
The first man had just come out of the mussel, and the second had come out.
The first one was a man in a navy blue robe. He had a tall and slender figure with a custom-made bamboo hat. He lowered his head and looked down, so only half of his face could be seen. He folded his arms across his chest and held a long sword in his arms.
The second person was a woman wearing a light green dress. The woman was very tall, at least 1.8 meters. Among women, this height was quite rare.
However, this woman had an excellent figure. Her green long skirt was made of some unknown material and tightly wrapped around her body. Therefore, her slim waist and well-developed buttocks were vividly outlined. Most importantly, because she was too tall, her legs seemed extremely long.
The woman had no weapon, but she had an umbrella. The man in the bamboo hat with the sword was standing in front, and the woman in the green skirt was standing behind him. However, neither of them broke away from the piece of mussel. From the mussel, they separated a meat filament that connected their backs.
An Zheng waved his hand, and the Orthodox Pure Yang Inferno in the house disappeared. Surprisingly, it did not even burn anything in the house. At this moment, the inn was in a state of chaos, and the servants were screaming as they fled. The soldiers guarding outside the tavern rushed in and roared at the demonic beast, An Zheng.
An Zheng waved his hand: “I am the guard of the Tsukiko Princess and have come early to check out the situation. There is a demon beast here, your cultivation is not high enough.”
He threw out the name scroll given to him by the Jinling’s Ministry of Rites after it had been inspected. The leader of the soldiers caught it, opened it and looked at it before shouting at An Zheng: “What the f * ck is that?”
An Zheng shook his head slightly, “All of you should step back. I don’t know what this is, but I know that if you get near it, you will all die.”
Most of the soldiers were not cultivators. Although the few captains could cultivate, their cultivation base was pitifully low. After An Zheng finished speaking, they started to retreat in an orderly fashion, but they still constructed a defensive line in the distance.
This was Da Xi’s army. Even though they knew that they were no match for that demonic beast, they would never run away. These soldiers had all undergone rigorous examinations and training, so they all maintained the quality of a soldier.
In order to avoid harming the innocent, An Zheng pushed out his hands and dozens of Holy Fish Scale s flew out. After they grew, they formed a wall surrounding him and the Goblin Beast.
“Just what are you?”
An Zheng asked.
The Goblin Beast seemed to be afraid of An Zheng, its body wriggled, but it was obviously incapable of speaking.
The piece of flesh that was connected to the man holding the sword became bright and blue. After the light rays extended onto the man’s body, the man suddenly raised his head and looked towards An Zheng. His face was deathly pale, as if there wasn’t a drop of blood in his body. Therefore, An Zheng was sure that this was a dead person, or more accurately, a living dead person.
His eyes were purely black, with no white pupils visible as he stared straight at An Zheng. His throat made a few cracking sounds, then he opened his mouth and let ouoarse and unpleasant sound.
“You … “And who is it?”
When he was speaking, An Zheng released his Heaven’s Eyes. After his Heaven’s Eyes examined it carefully, the voice appeared in An Zheng’s mind.
There are no records of the Blood Pearl. But from the aura, it should be a summoner from the inner world. ”
An Zheng looked at the thing and asked: “You came out from the inner world, and hid in this relay station, so you can intercept and kill the princess of Tsukiko.”
The man looked at An Zheng, but did not reply. As if his brain was a little slow, he asked again: “And who are you?”
An Zheng knew that he couldn’t get anything out of them, the origins of these inner world’s summoner were mysterious and their abilities were strange. If he was allowed to go crazy, the citizens of this small city would most likely suffer.
“I’m the one who killed you.”
An Zheng said, then witush of his hand, a piece of the wall formed by the Holy Fish Scale flew out. Around twenty Holy Fish Scale formed into sharp blades, and swept towards the clam.
The man wearing the bamboo hat and carrying the sword imitated An Zheng and repeated, “I am the one who killed you.”
Then he drew his sword.
An Zheng had never seen a person pull out a sword at such a fast speed.
In just a flash, a white light appeared like a bolt of lightning. In a flash of sword light, a few white, perfectly straight sword beams streaked across the sky. All the Holy Fish Scale that had been surrounding them were chopped down, and the man’s eyes suddenly flashed with white light as he said two words softly.
