Chapter 1174 - Chapter 1174 Chapter 651 Skinless
Chapter 1174: Chapter 651 Skinless Chapter 1174: Chapter 651 Skinless Logan had just arrived,
he was extremely calm.
But his gaze fell upon those remnant souls,
indeed, as he had thought,
the Demonic Qi they emitted was exactly the same as the remnant souls he had seen before in the Mountain Range,
his expression turned grave,
and not particularly pleasant to look at.
Could it be that some remnant souls had escaped from the Mountain Range?
He shouldn’t have let him slay so many,
how could there possibly be fish that slipped through the net?
Thinking of this,
Logan was plagued with a headache, this was difficult to handle.
In his heart, he secretly speculated that behind this series of mysterious and unpredictable events, there must be a connection to that inscrutable Qilin. Only the Qilin, legendary for its supreme Divine Skill, could perform such world-shocking acts, awakening those remnant souls hidden in the depths of the Netherworld, using them as sharp blades, mercilessly aimed at him, Logan. His thoughts were shrouded in fog, unable to comprehend, what deep-set hatred, what bone-deep grudge, existed between the two, that they would risk divine punishment, to release such a fierce entity to target him.
The surrounding Sect Disciples, seeing Logan’s face which usually bore a faint smile, now twisted to an extreme ugliness, like a sky dense with dark clouds, signaling that a storm was imminent. An involuntary jolt went through their hearts, an ominous premonition creeping up like ice, making them wonder if they had unwittingly stepped onto a ship heading towards an unknown Abyss. This feeling, both familiar and foreign, instilled fear in their hearts.
“How can this be?” a disciple exclaimed in a low voice, incredulous, “Logan, renowned for his fearlessness, when has he ever been seen in such panic? There must be hidden secrets here, perhaps, ones more terrifying than we’ve ever imagined.”
Logan’s brows were tightly furrowed, his gaze swiftly scanning the surroundings, trying to find that thread of light from these complicated clues to guide him out of the fog. The other people from the Sect were also exchanging uneasy glances, understanding without need for words, that this sudden turmoil was probably much more complex, much more dangerous than they had imagined. On this ancient and mysterious land, a prelude to a saga of grudges and struggles between good and evil was quietly unfolding.
“I told you back then, we shouldn’t have readily agreed to his request, and now, look where we are, aren’t we about to lose our lives because of this?” one of them said with a hint of regret and anxiety in his voice. Their eyes locked onto the remnant soul ahead, which was emitting surges of Demonic Qi, their hearts churning like turbulent seas, too unsettled to calm.
The Demonic Qi oppressed their nerves like a physical force, constantly giving them a feeling of imminent disaster, as if something terrible would occur the next moment. Their eyes were filled with vigilance and fear, yet they dared not retreat easily, fearing that showing any sign of weakness would result in being devoured by the Demonic Qi.
The Qilin stood by, quietly observing everything, his eyes sharp as an eagle, as though he could see through all. When his gaze landed on Logan, the corners of his mouth lifted uncontrollably, revealing a meaningful smile. He seemed to discern Logan’s thoughts and guess his next move, thus speaking out to remind him, “Logan, don’t think of bearing this all alone, since we’ve come together, we’ll face it together. No matter what the outcome, we can’t let you confront that remnant soul by yourself.”
“What, surprised? I purposely released a few remnant souls from within the Mountain Range, just to deal with you, and now, at last, I can reveal the grudges of the past, hand over what belongs to me,” the Qilin still remembered the item Logan had taken from him, to which Logan immediately denied.
