Apocalypse Arrival - chapter 219

When passing the courtyard gate, a tall man walked out from the side house, saw Ye Peitian, was shocked, and flinched back two steps.

“I shouldn’t see you abusing children again,” Ye Peitian said coldly. He hated child abuse, it reminded him of what his stepmother did to him since he was a child.

“I won’t dare, won’t dare.” The man laughed nervously, “I didn’t abuse them. I was bitten by the bear kid (spoiled brat). I was angry for a while and couldn’t hold back my temper.”

Ye Peitian glanced at him faintly, and walked out the door without saying a word.

The man dropped his hands, shrank his shoulders, and started to sweat.

“Yes, Xiao Ye can scare people now,” Chu Qianxun looked at Ye Peitian’s cold look, feeling a little strange.

“Very fierce?”

“I like it when you smile. I like the cold look too.” Chu Qianxun quietly teased him, “I like the blushing look the most.”

Ye Peitian, who was still cold and cool and shocked others a minute ago, blushed instantly.

When they arrived at Lujia Village, it was already close to noon.

In early autumn, the noon sun shone bright spots on the ground through the lush branches and leaves.

An old man was sitting in the grocery store at the entrance of the village, making tea slowly. His two or three-year-old grandson beside him, fiddled with a toy car.

Everything looked comfortable and beautiful if it wasn’t for the old man’s corpse and the child’s head falling from his neck, moving, and rolling with the toy car.

Looking in from the entrance of the village, most of the houses in the village were already covered by lush vegetation, and the original appearance of the village was almost gone. Frighteningly, some dead humans were still walking on the small roads in the village. If one took a closer look, they would find that they were doing the usual activities during their lifetimes. The grandmother who swept the floor was holding a broom and was sweeping the garbage that did not exist. The woman straddling the basket was walking aimlessly on the street carrying a dead child.

Gao Yan’s face turned pale, and she squeezed toward Yan Xue. Yan Xue’s face was paler than hers.

Ruan Xiaoyue took Chu Qianxun’s hand and took a step back quietly.

“Don’t be afraid, there is an ability holder in the village who can control corpses.” Chu Qianxun comforted, “He can control so many people in one breath, but the level is not low. It’s better to find this person’s position, I will go in and see.”

Before Tu Yibai could speak, a strange big fish wandered silently in the forest. This fish was about two meters long and resembled a whale. The skin below the abdomen was gone, revealing white erie skeleton.

Although it was bizarre and semi-white, it could still swim in the air.

On its back, or connected to it was a delicate little boy, if it was not for the blue hair flowing with fluorescence, it was even difficult to distinguish it from humans.

“Oh, why are so many people here suddenly?” The boy was riding on the back of a whale swimming in the air, the gem-like hair shimmering in the sun.

“It’s a pity that I can’t let you in. My friend is inside, and he doesn’t like being disturbed by others.”

When it said that, its facial expression was as innocent as a real human child, but as the voice fell, its mouth cracked behind its ears, and a dazzling blue light swirled in its wide mouth at high speed.

There was a sharp tingling in everyone’s mind, and Tu Yibai, a young and not high-ranked young man, fainted first.

Zhong Hongfei, who was also a second-order, had a pale face, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but he forced himself not to lose consciousness. In the air behind him, he slowly opened a pair of golden eyes, facing the blue light of the Devourer.

“Zhong Hongfei, you stay back,” Chu Qianxun said.

The Devourer who launched a mental attack in front of it was a fourth-order demon. The mental power of demons had always been stronger than that of humans. Zhong Hongfei of second-order was too weak to resist it, and injuries in the mental power realm were more difficult to heal than physical injuries.

“Since you’re here, you can’t retreat. Come to my stomach,” a reverberant low voice came from the abdomen of the whale with its bones exposed.

Like the boy riding on its back, the big fish floating in the air slowly opened its wide mouth.

There was a gust of wind in the air, and strong suction power came. Numerous leaves, stones and debris all flew toward the huge mouth. The big mouth was like a bottomless pit, swallowing everything that flew toward it.

A semi-circular sand wall rose in the gust of wind, firmly rooted in the ground, and caught Gao Yan and others who were floating in the air.

From the sand wall jumped out of the figure of Chu Qianxun holding a pair of blades, apart from anything else, two crescent-shaped blades, one red and one black, staggered toward the Devourer with the human head and fish body.

The Devourer was caught off guard, and was hit twice. It suddenly disappeared in the air with a stupefied look, and appeared again not far away.

The huge gravity in the air and the unbearable mental attack finally stopped.

“I know your two blades. Let me think about it. They seem to be the arms of another friend of mine.” It didn’t seem to respond to pain. With a thoughtful look on its face, it said, “It turns out that he has been killed by humans. The crystal core on this handle was dug out from him. You humans are really cruel. Do you want to grab another one?”

It turned around in the air, its figure disappeared again and appeared further away.

“The whole village has been eaten by me, only a small one is left. I am having a great time with him. He is my friend, you can’t take him away.”

Only the immature and cruel words remained in the air.

Tu Yibai covered his stinging head, fumbled and got up, searching intently.

“Found it, a human being is alone in the depths of the village. The demon is near him,” he said.

The author has something to say: 

A demon is a creature with a different way of thinking than humans.
