Chapter 504: Bloodl.u.s.t
They watched their swords shatter in absolute horror!
The two middle-aged men had never experienced such unbelievable power before and were completely stunned by Xiao Luo. Suddenly, they both felt a chill on their chests, and before they could react, an excruciating pain emanated from their hearts and shot to their brains in a flash.
The two men looked down and froze in horror. Their eyes widened, and pupils contracted. A giant hand had pierced into their chests, with all five fingers plunged deep into their bodies. Their hearts were literally in Xiao Luo’s hands now.
Their own bodies had been pierced through by a mere hand?
How could that happen…?
The two middle-aged men became even more terrified when they stared into Xiao Luo’s angry red eyes. He seemed to be looking right into their souls like a demon.
Xiao Luo did not say a word before he ripped out their throbbing hearts.
Blood was spurting out from their chests, and they screamed in agony, and thick blood streamed from their mouths. They were not entirely dead and could still see their pumping hearts in Xiao Luo’s hands, still connected to their bodies through arteries and veins.
What on earth is happening?
They were actually looking at their own hearts!
The two middle-aged men widened their eyes as blood oozed out from their mouths and noses. It was a horrific, gory nightmare. Was this man an actual demon?
In the next second, Xiao Luo squeezed and crushed their hearts without any hesitation.
SQUIs.h.!.+ SQUIs.h.!.+
Blood was spurting everywhere, and the two middle-aged men collapsed in their pool of blood straight with their eyes opened as they could never accept this outcome willingly. As the Asou family’s top fighters, they were trashed and abused to death mercilessly by a n.o.body, which they could not believe still after their very last breath.
Xiao Luo did not stop after killing these two.
He walked up and stomped on each of them with one foot, and the two middle-aged men’s heads exploded like how a watermelon disintegrating after being hammered by an eight-pound hammer. Blood and gray matter were splattered everywhere on the ground, causing the air to reek of blood like a busy abattoir.
Xiao Luo glanced at his b.l.o.o.d.y hands, and his blood-red eyes regained a hint of composure, but he was still numbed with cold killing intent.

After Qiu Yuanjie ended the phone call with Xiao Luo, he could not sit still as the Asou family’s two top fighters had not reported back, and he even lost contact with them.
Could it be that they were defeated?
That was impossible. No matter how good that Xiao something could fight, he would never match up with them!
But if they did not lose to him, then what would happen?
He could not get it and frowned deeper, walking back and forth in his office as he was feeling unexplainable anxiety.
The door was opened, and the anti-MLM special operations team member, Luo Shuang, came in. She was not in a high spirit and reported to Qiu Yuanjie, “Leader, we have interrogated every section head of the MLM company but there is nothing about the Fog.”
The Fog?
Qiu Yuanjie gave it a good thought as he was the Fog, so his priority now was to frame Guan Tong as the Fog.
He played the video, which featured Guan Tong managing the financial department according to his instructions previously, “We’re all fooled by this man. Guan Tong, who has been our informant, is the prime suspect. The four hundred million was transferred by none other than him to overseas. He could be the Fog we are trying to find.
“What?”
Luo Shuang was surprised, “How could this be possible? He’s our informant and has been helping us with the counter MLM operations diligently.”
Qiu Yuanjie slammed the desk, “That was his strategy to plant himself around us, so that we would never suspect him while he plans everything behind the scene. He’s probably a double spy and Mr. Xiao Luo obviously confirmed his ident.i.ty as the Fog, so he rushed out to catch him so furiously.”
Gasp…
Luo Shuang gasped in awe as she was totally convinced by Qiu Yuanjie after listening to his reasoning. Everyone they arrested was a small fry in the MLM company, and this operation was arranged by the Fog on purpose. He intended to get rid of the old people and rebuild a new empire, exactly how the Fog would usually do things.
“Quick, apply for Guan Tong’s arrest warrant now and we must not let him get his way.” Qiu Yuanjie said righteously.
“Roger.”
Luo Shuang left the room quickly to execute his order.
After she left, Qiu Yuanjie’s face became twisted again; he looked out of the window at the evening sky and prayed piously in j.a.panese, “Hail, Emperor Hirohito!”
That was faith and loyalty in his eyes as they burned with a pa.s.sion as he recited the name with sanct.i.tude. As for Hirohito, he was the reigning emperor during the j.a.panese occupation of China.

With video evidence, the director of the Bureau, Tian Zhenxing, did not hesitate to put Guan Tong on the wanted list. Every police division in Xiahai had been notified, and they were on full alert to arrest Guan Tong.
Under Qiu Yuanjie’s behind-the-scene influence and information conveyed to key personnel, the police soon narrowed their search to the area of Wild Wolf Mountain. However, all they found were two corpses with their hearts pulled out and heads squashed. It was already late, and the corpses had started to deteriorate and smell.
Neither Guan Tong nor Xiao Luo could be seen anywhere.
Qiu Yuanjie felt even more stressed out as he felt that someone was watching him closely. The strong draft blowing eerily across Wild Wolf Mountain gave him gooseb.u.mps.
“What happened here? Who killed these two? A beast?” Luo, Shuang cried. She was terrified as it was the first time she had witnessed such incredibly cruel deaths in her long experience as a police officer.
“It must be the MLM company, and it’s possible that Mr. Xiao was taken by them too.”
Tian Zhenxing clenched his fist, and his eyes were filled with dread. “d.a.m.n it, how should I explain to the NSA if Mr. Xiao was harmed?” he said.
Luo Shuang did not buy it as she had already recognized Xiao Luo’s strength. “He’s a powerful man, he won’t be caught by them for sure,” she said.
Beside them, Qiu Yuanjie remained silent as he knew better than anyone what happened to those two. Xiao Luo had killed two of the top fighters in the Asou family, and that made him a formidable enemy. There was no way he could be harmed.
WHOOSH~
Suddenly, a samurai sword sliced through the night sky like a meteorite and streaked toward Qiu Yuanjie at high speed like a bullet.
Qiu Yuanjie was not even able to react and had his shoulder pierced by this samurai sword. From the time he caught a glimpse of the sword, it took less than a second for it to reach his shoulder.
“UMMPH!”
Qiu Yuanjie collapsed, screaming in pain, and blood was spurting out from his wound.
Suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from a bush nearby and teleported before Qiu Yuanjie in a flash like black lightning. It was Xiao Luo, who now had his foot on Qiu Yuanjie’s chest.
“AHH!”
He screamed in pain as Xiao Luo stomped down hard on his chest, causing more pain from his shoulder wound.
Everyone was shocked as they stared at Xiao Luo, and the special forces troops pointed their weapons at him—they were not sure if he was a man or beast who was attacking Qiu Yuanjie.
“Mr. Xiao?”
Tian Zhenxing was stunned. Wide-eyed, he stared at the spectral figure stepping on Qiu Yuanjie’s chest. He was a familiar yet strange man—the familiar part was that this man was definitely Xiao Luo, but the strange part was his unusual aura. Even though they were standing some distance away, he could still sense the bloodl.u.s.t emanating from Xiao Luo.
