Cultivation Online novel Chapter 972

Chapter 972 - A Big Mistake

After returning to the hotel, Yuan went to look for the others, who had been waiting anxiously for his return.

"Yuan! You're back!" Chu Liuxiang said.

"Are you hurt anywhere?" Meixiu asked him.

"No, I am perfectly fine." He shook his head.

"Welcome back." White Lotus said to him.

"By the way, your deeds are already on the news." She pointed at the television that was already talking about the chaos he'd caused outside the city.

[The unknown weapon of mass destruction has been used again! Furthermore, the authorities have found the cultripts behind the shooting this afternoon at…]

"You know, many people have already left the city because of this commotion, and there will be even more leaving tomorrow when they wake up to see the news. I've even received many calls from those at the faction today, all of them are asking to relocate the faction temporarily. They're all scared of that technique of yours— scared that you might release this 'weapon of mass destruction' in the city."

"Sorry, I wanted to resolve this without using the technique, but that wasn't possible. I even had to use it twice." Yuan sighed.

"Let's just hope that there will be an audience for the concert tomorrow. However, with all of the chaos today, I'm afraid that will be quite hard."

"It's fine. The only audience I need is my sister, Yu Rou." Yuan smiled.

"So what's going to happen now?" Chu Liuxiang asked a moment later.

"Are we just going to pretend like nothing happened? There's a lot of people looking for you, right?"

"It'll be fine. They will eventually give up when they cannot find anything. If they find me, we will deal with it at that time." Yuan said.

"Don't worry, the Bai Family will help you keep your secret. Even if your secret is revealed, we have our methods to protect you." White Lotus said.

"Thank you."

Sometime later, Yuan said to them, "Let's go to sleep. I need some rest after what happened today."

"Good night."

After returning to his room, Yuan closed the lights and laid on the bed, but he did not go to sleep immediately.

'I have killed a lot of people today. Even though it's not my first time killing someone since Cultivation Online is also a real world, it feels unnatural to stain my hands with blood in this world.'

'Yu Rou… What will she think when she learns that her brother has turned into a killer?'

Yuan slowly fell asleep as he thought about the day that felt longer than usual.

While he slept, dreams that felt incredibly surreal started appearing.

Inside his dream, he was surrounded by a sea of flames and rivers of blood.

The sky was dark and red, and the whole world appeared to be dyed in black and red.

'This is… the Evil God's memories?' Yuan looked around the gruesome scenery with a slight frown on his face.
