705 A New God


    The snake and fish-like monster led many water ghosts and leaped out of the water. The pressure of that moment would stun many. The lifeguard had already fallen to the ground. Guan Miao and Yan Yue’s mother were also scared and speechless. The murky water sshed on their bodies. When they reacted and wanted to warn Han Fei, the monster had already opened its mouth to consume the altar.


    The stinging stench rushed into the nostrils. Han Fei held the butcher’s knife and stared at the monster’s maw. Hundreds of teeth intertwined. Broken bones were stuck on them, and ck hair squeezed between the gaps. Down the throat were some balls of meat. Falling into the monster’s jaw was no different from falling into a meat grinder.


    “How is there such a scary thing in theke?” Han Fei stepped on the chain and moved. The monster nned to eat Han Fei along with the altar. Han Fei had no space to evade up there on the top floor.


    “My cat is still absorbing the blood cocoon. I can’t let the monster disturb it.” Han Fei quickly adjusted himself to face this creature several timesrger than it. His calm eyes shone with madness. As the water monster bit at the altar, the de glowed!


    “Rest in Peace!” The light of humanity chased away the darkness that had umted in the stone house for millennia. Han Fei finally got to see the many carvings on the wall. The orphans were made into sacrifices. They thought they had finally been given a purpose. But in the end, they were only being used by the vigers. They were the expendables. The vigers never saw them as humans.


    Ugliness and darkness were exposed by Rest in Peace. Han Fei swung and the de collided with the monster’s mouth!


    ck blood sttered all over the stone house. The monster wailed. Its injured mouth bit the chain and altar. The dangling altar had a huge chunk taken away. A few of the chains snapped. Han Fei tried very hard before he found his bnce again. Wooden splinters flew everywhere, and the chains swayed. The monster’s red eyes red at Han Fei before it fell back into the water. The murky water sshed on the walls. Han Fei grabbed the remaining chains and felt fear. The stone house was three stories tall, but the monster reached that height with a simple leap.


    Han Fei turned to look at the broken altar. The kitten jumped to the roof to absorb the blood cocoon. Its body had changed. It looked less like a cat but more like a person of tragedy. Ghost tattoos spread on its body. Its fur coat was torn apart, and it was growing to be like Han Fei!


    “The cat wants to turn into me?” Han Fei heard ghost stories about how pet dogs and cats would mimic their owners after being with them for a long time. Some of them would try to kill their owners to take away their lives. Others would be guardian spirits to protect the house. “My pet likes that I’m always on the edge of death, but they will never want to kill me.”


    The kitten was still mutating. Han Fei didn’t dare to look away. The state was not optimistic for him. The chains that supported the altar had been torn apart, and the woodendder had disintegrated. The walls were covered in moss and thus too slippery to be climbed on. If Han Fei wanted to leave, the only way was to jump into the water. However, how was that different frommitting suicide? Han Fei could only wait for the kitten to finish its mutation.


    The group at the door was very nervous too. Even though Han Fei had cut the water monster, it didn’t harm therge creature at all. Everyone stared at the water. Han Fei held his breath and his muscles were tense. The water started to surface with small bubbles. Bloodflowers bloomed on the murky surface. Then, the water surface exploded again. The giant monster leaped faster than before as it charged at Han Fei!


    The altar had already been destroyed. Han Fei had nowhere to hide. He carried the mutating cat on his back and stepped on the remaining chain. He aimed his knife at the pair of red eyes!


    The de shone, and a deep gash appeared on the monster’s head. One of its eyes was shattered. The pain made the monster go insane. Its giant maw bit the altar and chain. As its body fell back into the water, it dragged the chain with it. The rusted chain slipped. Han Fei hung onto it with both of his legs. He bit Rest in Peace, grabbed the falling chain with one hand, and hugged the kitten with his other.


    “Han Fei!” The people at the door were anxious. The top of the stone house had been fully destroyed. The altar fell. Only one end of thest chain was still encased in the wall. Han Fei swayed above the well. He could fall at any moment. “How much longer do you need?” Han Fei turned to look at the kitten. It was still growing in size. The chain was not strong enough to hold both of their weight. The connection between the chain and the wall loosened. The monster was about to leap out again. Han Fei’s mind spun to think of a solution. He couldn’t climb on the slippery wall. His only solution was to swing the chain and then jump towards the entrance.


    “I can’t afford to wait any longer!” Han Fei tied himself to the kitten using the cursed red threads. He was about to try to jump to the entrance when the whole house shook. Something was damaging the house’s foundation underwater. More red things floated up to the surface. The bottom of the floating altar was crashed through, and the water level started to rise!


    The monster jumped out for the third time. The human faces on its scales screamed. This time, Han Fei had no ce to hide.


    “Come at me!” Han Fei’s eyes narrowed. He kicked at the wall. As the monster’s jaws chomped close, he loosed his grip on the chain. If he stayed, he would be eaten alive, so he had to take this risk!


    While the monster rose up, Han Fei fell down. He controlled his direction and brushed past the monster.


    The sharp de cut into the water monster. Han Fei’s eyes were filled with determination and cruelty. He cut out arge wound on the side of the water monster’s body. The scales that entrapped human faces flew everywhere. The ck blood drenched Han Fei. Han Fei swung madly in these few seconds to injure the monster’s internal organs. The Lake God had consumed endless orphans. It didn’t expect that someone could cut through its scale and deliver such intense damage. The monster screeched, and its giant body tried to press on Han Fei to bring him into the water!


    Han Fei knew he’d be dead once he was underwater. When he touched the water, Han Fei swam towards the entrance. However, the monster was very smart. It used its body to block Han Fei’s way. To make things worse, water ghosts were gathering towards Han Fei.


    The bushy ck hair swayed underwater. There were many Lake God figurines under the water. Each figurine represented the loss of innocent young life. The murkyke water rushed into Han Fei’s ears. He couldn’t even open his eyes. Han Fei tried to escape when the kitten on his back was bound by the Lake God’s snake tail. The red threads around the kitten tightened. The water monster wanted to drag the kitten down into theke bed. Han Fei didn’t cut the red threads to escape on his own, but he cut at the water monster’s tail.


    “Xu Qin!” Curses coursed through his body. None of the water ghosts dared toe any closer, but the water monster was not affected. It dragged the kitten and Han Fei further underwater!


    The water pressure became unbearable. The pain came from every part of the body. The bloated faces surrounded him. The oxygen in his lungs depleted, and he moved further away from the water surface. Every inch of his skin was enveloped by the watery darkness. When Han Fei was inches away from death, the ghost tattoos on the kitten exploded with the extreme presence of death. The ck tattoos burst out of the kitten like ws. They gushed towards Han Fei. The Lake God screamed again. It pressured the hesitant water ghosts to attack Han Fei. The bloated face bit Han Fei’s body. Both parties were poisoned. Han Fei’s life point dropped, and the presence of death on the ghost tattoos intensified. When both elements reached maximum intensity, the nine ghost tattoos tore apart the kitten’s body and branded themselves on Han Fei’s skin.


    Blood and flesh ovepped. Han Fei’s physique improved tremendously. The most important detail was the thing trapped inside the ghost tattoos finally found freedom. Therge shadow, about 5 meters wide, was like a school of hungry piranhas. It immediately embraced the Lake God.


    “Big Sin!”


    The non-human vessel Dream had prepared for itself was covered in death, tragedy, despair, and misfortune. The monster struggled as it tried to bury Han Fei underwater. The water sshed, and they entered thest battle.


    Han Fei was about to suffocate. He waved the de at the water monster. At this crucial moment, something unexpected happened.


    The de cut the water monster, and the wounds appeared to be purified. The souls of the orphans crawled out of the Lake God’s flesh and scales. Then, they voluntarily moved towards Rest in Peace. The Grade D Rest in Peace could harm wicked souls but also awaken the murdered kind spirits.


    The scales flew everywhere, and the organ shattered. The sacrificed orphans became the energy that helped to weaken the Lake God. It could no longer fight Big Sin and was consumed by Big Sin.


    Rest in Peace glowed in the water. Pairs of eyes looked at Han Fei. It was hard to tell if they were fishes or something else. Han Fei didn’t have the time to care. He used hisst bit of energy for swimming to the surface.


    “This is all your fault! We’re trying to help us, but you are trying to use us as sacrifices!” The lifeguard grabbed Guan Miao and mmed him into the wall. “I’ll kill you!”


    “Kill me then. I don’t mind dying as long as the Lake God’s anger can be dissipated.” Giao Miao looked at his ugly body. “I don’t n to live anymore. I just want my descendants to live a normal life.”


    “Han Fei has helped so many people in the city. We’re all hoping for him to lead us out!” The lifeguard nned to throw Guan Miao into the well, but at that moment, the water surface rippled.


    The three quickly retreated. Yan Yue’s mother was the first to react. She sensed the curse’s presence. “It’s not the monster! It’s Han Fei!”


    An arm reached out of the water to grab at the floating scrap of the altar. Han Fei gasped heavily for air. The three were stunned when they saw Han Fei. They didn’t expect the man to survive.


    The lifeguard quickly snapped into action. He instantly jumped into the well and dragged the broken altar and Han Fei to the shore.


    “How are you still alive? What about the Lake God?” Guan Miao fell to the ground. He couldn’t believe his eyes.


    “Lake God? If you want to meet it, I can send you there.” Han Fei copsed once he was hauled up to the dry ground. “Dream has sacrificed almost all the youths in the nearby vigers. The mutated blood cocoon is very unique. It is tainted with your livelihood, blessings, and bloodlines. For the sake of the blood cocoon, I’m not going to kill you.” Without that blood cocoon, Big Sin wouldn’t escape from the ghost tattoo. After consuming the blood cocoon, it broke through Fu Sheng’s shackles.


    “Have you killed Lake God?” Guan Miao’s voice was shaking.


    “I merely brought you a new God.” A giant shadow slowly surfaced on the water. Big Sin that had consumed Lake God and endless water ghosts appeared before everyone. Its body slowly took on the human shape, but overall, it still looked very ugly. It was scarier than the previous Lake God.


    The lifeguard quickly grabbed Han Fei and ran when he saw the monster. Yan Yue’s mother was too stunned to move. She hadn’t seen such a scary monster at the theme park.


    As its owner was dragged away, Big Sin burst through the stone house to chase after Han Fei. It loved this crazy world so much.


    “Why is it chasing after us?”


    “Let go! That’s my pet!” Han Fei’s head almost knocked against the rock on the ground.


    “Pet?” “Don’t you think it’s cute?” Han Fei stopped the running lifeguard. “It just wants to be with me.”
