The shadow enveloped the man with broken bones and lifted him into the air.
"Why, why?"
"Little girl" asked again.
"Save me! Save me!" The man howled frantically.
The onlookers, seeing the man’s terrible state, looked at each other and all felt a wave of intense fear. They couldn’t help but want to shrink back.
They did want to help, but not at the expense of involving themselves.
The fact that the latent grudge had actually caused bone fractures made them afraid that they would be next if they acted.
Seeing that no one was coming to his aid, the man’s face turned as pale as paper, and panic and despair surged in his eyes.
"Little girl" didn’t wait for his response and lifted her hand. A huge black Energy Sphere immediately condensed.
"Someone forced me to do it!" The man finally faced the "little girl" and yelled:
"Do you remember Aunt Latifa? She forced me! I didn’t want to do it! She told me to sprinkle the juice of Sān Má on your clothes! You should be looking for her instead!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s minds went blank. freewebnoveℓ.com
A chill rose from the bottom of their hearts.
Listening to what he said, could it be that this man had killed his own child?
...
Augustus Competition Arena.
The audience was first silent, then their eyes seemed to spew fire as they began to curse loudly, hurling all sorts of profanities.
"Fuck! I knew there was something wrong with this guy!"
"He’s an animal! He even went after his own child!"
"Trash! Scum! How can such people exist?"
"Who is Latifa?" the questioner looked at the audience member who said they knew the man.
The audience member was filled with righteous indignation:
"That’s this guy’s current lover. I can’t believe both of them turned out to be such people!"
...
Fredbert General Hospital.
Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and looked at patient 98: "What is Sān Má juice?"
The woman sighed: "It’s a material that attracts water, and the Poison-Tolerant Eel of dual poison and water series. Normally, wild Pet Beasts find it hard to break into residences, but some use their characteristics to come and go at will, such as the Poison-Tolerant Eel. It can enter and exit rooms through any plumbing."
"I reckon the one that made this little girl fall off the building was the Poison-Tolerant Eel."
The woman was enjoying the commotion but also heard the chatter of others and knew the cause of the girl’s death.
Using a Pet Beast to kill, that’s inhuman... Qiao Sang took a deep breath and resisted the urge to have Xiao Xunbao attack.
The surrounding people came to their senses and started cursing, spewing oaths at the man who was tied up.
Qiao Sang knew this was an excellent opportunity to collect negative Emotional Energy, but she suddenly didn’t want Xiao Xunbao to absorb these energies.
"Little girl" paused upon hearing this and then, without hesitation, sent the Shadow Ball careening down at the man.
"I’m your dad!" The man’s face was filled with terror; he could only scream helplessly and desperately.
"Ptui! Only now do you remember you’re a dad."
"Damn it, human scum!"
"To think I actually tried to stop the latent grudge just now, I’d slap myself!"
People spat one curse after another.
Just as the Shadow Ball was only 0.5 centimeters from the man, a semi-transparent Light Armor covered him.
"Bang!"
A loud noise rang out as the Shadow Ball hit the man.
As the noise of the explosion dissipated, the man remained unscathed.
Realizing something, the crowd turned their eyes towards the hospital entrance.
Several police Pet Beasts and policemen in uniforms appeared there.
The man followed everyone’s gaze anxiously, his face showing the ecstasy of having found a lifeline:
"Save me! Quick, save me!"
All wild Pet Beasts in the first district could communicate. An older policeman spoke into a megaphone:
"Latent resentment, do not harm humans. We can communicate if there’s an issue."
The "little girl" ignored him. Her eyes glowed purple, and several Shadow Blades, formed from black energy, appeared out of thin air and slashed at the man.
At the same time, the semi-transparent Light Armor reappeared on the man.
The Shadow Blades hit the man but didn’t harm him at all.
"What skill is this?" Qiao Sang frowned.
"Light Armor," said the woman. "It’s a high-level skill from the Psychic Series. Since the latent grudge couldn’t break the Light Armor, I reckon the one who acted must be a General-level Pet Beast."
Qiao Sang glanced towards the police, then her gaze fell on a cat-like Pet Beast, dressed in a police uniform, about 60 centimeters in size, predominantly white, and its eyes emitting a blue glow.
She looked closely at the paws of the cat-like Pet Beast and, sure enough, saw a Shrinking Bracelet.
