Realm of the Night God

Chapter 686: Minor Demon Eats People

Compared to the past, this neighborhood had become even more dilapidated, with many cracks appearing on the walls, and some places even had impact marks left behind.

It wasn't because the houses were too old, but rather because there had been a small-scale battle here before, which was why the walls had impact marks.

At this time, it wasn't just Jiang Zhenzhen's rental room that had no lighting, but the entire neighborhood was in darkness, pitch black and eerily quiet, like a dead zone without any signs of life.

However, under Yang Haoran's sensing, this neighborhood was not a dead zone without any living people. On the contrary, there were still many people living here, but they were too afraid to make a sound or turn on the lights, fearing to attract some terrifying things.

Although Lecheng had no internet and mobile phones couldn't make calls, the water and electricity were still working, thanks to the local water plant and power station.

Yang Haoran didn't know the specific reason why the power hadn't been cut off, but in his opinion, it was definitely because the Lecheng Administrative Bureau had negotiated with the power supplier. Otherwise, the power would have been cut off long ago.

The Administrative Bureau would definitely try their best to handle these matters. If they couldn't even handle these, then the current Administrative Bureau would be overthrown or annexed by other cities, which was only a matter of time.

According to the address he had memorized, Yang Haoran headed towards his destination, looking at the battle scars left behind along the way, which made him feel anxious.

He wasn't worried about his own safety, but rather about whether the old master who made the smiling face masks was still alive.

If the old master had unfortunately died in the recent chaos, then Yang Haoran would have to find another master to make the masks. But in this current situation, where could he find such a master? Even if he found one, there was no guarantee that the masks would meet his standards.He prayed in his heart, hoping that the old master was still alive and well, otherwise, a simple task would become complicated again.

In the empty corridor, only Yang Haoran's footsteps echoed, making it seem even more eerie. He wasn't scared by his own footsteps, but the residents on both sides of the corridor were terrified.

People nowadays, except for those with thick skin, had become like startled birds, easily frightened by the slightest movement.

To avoid causing more fear to these ordinary people, Yang Haoran simply floated his body, like a ghost, towards the old master's door.

After a moment, Yang Haoran's body stopped in front of the old master's door. He didn't knock on the door, because that would not only scare the nearby neighbors but also the old master inside.

So, he stood outside the door, sensing whether there was anyone inside. If there was, he would think of a way to enter, because knocking on the door might not get the old master to open it, and it was more practical to find a way in directly.

As for whether this would scare the old master to death, Yang Haoran wasn't worried. With him around, as long as the old master's physical body hadn't deteriorated to the point of no return, he couldn't die even if he wanted to.

If there was no one inside, knocking on the door would be pointless, and even if he broke the door, he still wouldn't see the person he wanted to see.

Yang Haoran slightly sensed the situation in the house and realized that there was no one inside, not a single person.

Yang Haoran initially wanted to ask old master's neighbors about the situation, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. Recently, even slightly normal people had been locking themselves indoors, not daring to venture out, so the neighbors probably wouldn't know where old master had gone either.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Haoran directly tore open the space in front of old master's door and headed to the second address given to him by Bai Xue, which was old master's hometown.

Since old master wasn't in the city, he might have returned to his hometown to avoid danger, so Yang Haoran decided to take a look. Besides, he could tear open space, and it wouldn't cost him much time.

Yang Haoran was familiar with the small town where old master's hometown was located, having been there before, so he knew which direction to go. When he walked out of the space rift, he arrived at the small town where old master lived.

However, what surprised him was that as soon as he walked out of the space rift, he sensed a demonic aura and heard a chaotic cry for help.

"Save us The demon is eating people!"

"Run quickly There's a demon!"

In the distance, there was a scene of chaos, and under the moonlight, Yang Haoran could vaguely see people scrambling to escape, shouting loudly. Although he couldn't see their expressions, he knew they must be filled with terror.

Yang Haoran initially wanted to rush to old master's residence in the town, but after hesitating, he decided to deal with the demon first.

If he hadn't encountered it, that would be fine, but since he had, he definitely couldn't just stand by and do nothing. Moreover, from the demonic aura he sensed, this demon wasn't very strong and should be just a slightly stronger minor demon.

If this demon was an existence he couldn't handle, he wouldn't only not help but would also flee the scene immediately. As for the ordinary people who were fleeing in all directions, he could only wish them good luck.

With a leap, Yang Haoran jumped onto a nearby rooftop and disappeared into the night after a few bounds.

In this small town, there were several five-story residential buildings, which were the tallest and most majestic structures in the town. The wealthy residents of the town almost all lived here.

However, tonight, outside these residential buildings, corpses were scattered all over the ground, with signs of being devoured. Some corpses even had their entire faces eaten away.

A fat man was pinning a young woman to the ground, his face filled with excitement. Instead of tearing off the woman's clothes, he revealed a row of sharp teeth and bit into her face.

The woman's face was filled with terror as she struggled with all her might while screaming for help. The others had already been scared out of their wits and were fleeing for their lives, without a care for the woman.

The woman's resistance not only didn't have any effect but also made the fat man even more excited. Under the woman's terrified screams, the fat man bit into her face, his sharp teeth piercing into her flesh and blood. Then, with a fierce tug, he ripped off a large piece of flesh from the woman's face, and blood splattered everywhere.

The woman's agonized screams were extremely terrifying in the dark night, and the fat man wolfed down the blood and flesh in his mouth before licking the wound on the woman's face, absorbing the human spirit from her blood.

After a short while, the woman stopped struggling and lost all signs of life, but the fat man continued to absorb her human spirit. Although the person was dead, the human spirit hadn't been fully absorbed, so the fat man naturally wouldn't stop, as he had come to absorb human spirit in the first place.

Just as the fat man was enjoying the absorption of human spirit, he seemed to sense something and stopped moving his mouth. He looked in a direction, sensing that the space had been torn open and a power fluctuation had occurred.

Although the power fluctuation wasn't very strong, the fact that the opponent could tear open space meant they were definitely not ordinary. The power fluctuation wasn't strong, probably because the opponent was intentionally suppressing it.

The fat man hesitated for a moment, released the female corpse, and decided to leave first. He was very clear about his own strength, being just a minor demon, and could definitely handle ordinary people without any problem. However, if he faced a non-ordinary person who could tear open space, he definitely wouldn't be a match, so the most rational thing to do was to flee the scene first.

This minor demon wasn't stupid and knew he definitely wasn't a match for the newcomer, so he decided to leave immediately. This thought wasn't wrong, but his speed was far inferior to the newcomer's. He had just escaped a short distance when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
