As Zi Yang made his way back home, he was stopped by a youth! The young man had black hair with a slightly sinister look. He kinda looks like a snake, it was uncomfortable even looking at him.

Zi Yang smiled at the kid and the kid looked at him saying “Ah. If it isn’t Patriarch Zi! I’ve heard you’ve been quite busy these past few days.” Zi Yang chuckled and replied “Well, isn’t this a surprise! Little Zhou Cang, what are you doing on my route home?”

Zhou Cang smiled slightly, replying “I thought I’d see if Patriarch Zi needs any help.” Zi Yang laughed and wheeled over, saying “Well, if I need a person killed, surely I don’t have to come to you, eh?”

Zhou Cang frowned before returning to normal as she said “What are you talking about?” Zi Yang chuckled “Don’t play dumb with me, boy. You’re 10000 years too early to fool this old man. Did that old fart at home tell you to come probe me? Don’t be shy, come on, tell uncle.”

Zhou Cang’s facial expression became ugly and Zi Yang prodded “Am I right?” before clicking his tongue and adding “That damn corpse is miraculously still among the living and he’s actually trying to speed up his trip to the afterlife! It’s truly worrisome.” he patted Zhou Cang’s shoulder and continued “Little Cang, don’t you worry! I will bury him in the ground for you!”

Zhou Cang looked at Zi Yang, anger bubbling inside him as he slapped the hand away, saying “Patriarch Zi, that is quite disrespectful!” Zi Yang got serious and said coldly “Listen to me, boy. I don’t care what you think. You stopped me on my way home, do you think that I’m an idiot? Please have some self-respect.”

He tilted his head slightly and killing intent seeped out from him as he stared at Zhou Cang blankly, adding “You want information? You want to pry me for a chance to infiltrate my clan? Do you think I don’t know that most of my clan has already been bought by the Zhou Clan?”

Zhou Cang’s pupils constricted and Zi Yang continued “Or do you think that you can buy me with grandiose promises of recovery? If you truly think these things, you might as well kill yourself and try to get reincarnated into a world of retards.” he sneered “You think of yourself to be a smart person? I’ll tell you something, kid. You could be a snake with 100000 IQ and I would still strangle you to death.”

He started chuckling and Zhou Cang started shivering in fear as Zi Yang’s killing intent gently wrapped around his body, warping his vision. When he looked at Zi Yang, he could see horns protruding from his skull as he laughed, his figure getting bigger and bigger.

Zi Yang spoke again, but Zhou Cang felt as though he had to look up just to see his face while the voice boomed from all directions around him “There’s only one end for your clan, death! No matter how much you little rats struggle, it will never be enough to escape! Hahahahaha!”

Zhou Cang fell to his ass and shivered as Zi Yang scared the life out of him. He looked up to see a giant devil looking down at him with a sadistic grin as it slowly brought it’s foot down to step on him.

He shrieked before clutching his chest and spitting out blood, falling to the ground lifelessly.

Naturally there was no phenomena, Zi Yang watched as Zhou Cang was literally scared to death.

He was a bit shocked and mumbled “I can do that!? Cool!” he leaned over and examined Zhou Cang’s corpse, he didn’t quite know how to feel right now.

He was slightly excited about his newfound powers, but also conflicted about killing someone.

After all, it WAS his first time and while he even dreamed of killing Sun Tao in the most brutal ways, he had never killed anything! Well… Technically. Old Yang had killed things but the main personality was Zi Yang now. Old Yang was long gone only being assimilated into Zi Yang and while he shared some of Old Yang’s traits, he was still different.

He wasn’t quite Old Yang and he wasn’t quite Old Zi Yang, he was a new Zi Yang. An amalgamation of 2 souls’ perfect fusion with Old Zi Yang coming out on top.

Nevertheless, Zi Yang looked at Zhou Cang’s corpse in silence. While he was crazy and fearless, he thought he wouldn’t be affected, but it seems that he is slightly affected at the moment.

He found it difficult to describe the feeling. He felt a rush but also a bit of dread, sadness, weakness, pity, fear, and anxiety. He spoke lightly of death before but now he truly felt the repercussions.

He slowly calmed down from the slight panic he felt, it was a split second before it went away, the nauseating feeling also disappeared. All the complications slowly flowed out of his body as he examined the corpse.

Did he kill him? Yes.

Was it necessary? Not quite, but an eventuality.

Did he want to become a crazy murder hobo? Not really.

Zi Yang looked at the corpse and narrowed his eyes, asking the most important question.

Will he kill again?

He closed his eyes and tilted his head to the sky, putting his hands together, muttering “May you be blessed in another life.” he looked back down and felt much better, he looted the corpse and wheeled away with a new outlook on killing, feeling as though he’s grown from this experience!

Of course he will.

A small grin sprawled on his lips, heroes were born from a mountain of corpses after all. The reproach from killing a man wasn’t enough to deter him from doing it again! As long as they blocked his way, he would kill!

If words were useless, then steel would talk for him!
