CHAPTER 538: CHAPTER 504: CLEARING THE LEVEL!

Jiang Xiao didn’t stop his steps; he continued forward into the next train car.

This time, the passengers seemed to have realized something.

They screamed in terror, trying to escape, but their resistance was so insignificant against Jiang Xiao’s almost irresistible force.

The axe swung down again, and the blood bloomed once more. Jiang Xiao’s movements were clean and efficient, without a trace of superfluity.

His gaze was cold, as if all of this had nothing to do with him. He was merely executing a task, merely completing the "objective" that Fang Tianyu had mentioned.

The massacre continued, and Jiang Xiao’s pace showed no sign of slackening.

Behind him, there was a dead silence, a testament to the once vibrant lives that had been mercilessly stripped away.

"It’s over...."

Though it took some time to describe, in reality, the passengers went quickly—the whole event took less than five minutes from start to finish.

Back to the initial train car.

Ling Zi and her two companions had been waiting for him to return.

"Jiang Xiao..."

Ling Zi hesitated, wanting to say something but not knowing what should be said.

"Did you kill them all?"

"What else?"

Jiang Xiao didn’t understand why Ling Zi could ask such a stupid question.

"The parties involved had nothing to say, so you want to stand up for them?"

"No, no, no! That’s not what I meant." Ling Zi shook her head desperately, afraid of being misunderstood by Jiang Xiao.

"Can, can you leave now?" Xiao Qi asked softly.

Jiang Xiao nodded, indicating that they could leave.

So, passing the level was this simple...

Just kill those passengers?

Ah, no.

Or rather, use a mysterious power to kill those passengers.

But where would a normal Chosen One get such ability?

Unless they let Xiao Qi take action to kill all the passengers.

But if Xiao Qi ever started killing, she would become stronger and stronger, ultimately losing herself and falling prey to becoming a puppet of the bizarre world.

Then the Chosen Ones would surely have only a dead end.

Does this Kaidan have no solution?

"So, you’re leaving now?"

Jiang Xiao shook his head; there was still one thing... or rather, one person he hadn’t dealt with.

"Leave him to me."

Xiao Qi spoke coldly, then stood up from the ground, patted her pretty little dress, and turned to walk toward the nearby restroom.

’Creak~’

The restroom’s old door emitted a grating sound as it was opened.

Inside.

Was the assistant driver, with a fake smile on his face.

"Hey, haha, niece, your uncle is using the toilet, can you step out for a moment?"

This old guy had been keenly aware that something was amiss since the moment Jiang Xiao came to this populated car with Xiao Qi.

Following the idea that the most dangerous place is often the safest, he’d crawled from the restroom of the original car through the pipes to here.

As the assistant driver, he was one of the few people who knew about the connectivity of the restroom ventilation pipes.

Even Jiang Xiao hadn’t considered it.

This bastard was actually hiding here?

If Xiao Qi hadn’t gone to check, this guy might have really slipped away right under his nose.

"Niece?" Seeing Xiao Qi unmoved, the assistant driver continued to force a smile.

"Your uncle really needs to use the bathroom, please step aside for a moment, would you... ah!"

Along with a scream.

An arm flew out of the restroom.

Xiao Qi had made her move.

With just a slight effort, she had already pushed the assistant driver to the limits of what his body could bear.

"Heh, what a pity, all the passengers on the train are already dead, otherwise, I’d like to see how many people you could withstand~"

Xiao Qi sneered coldly, spewing some venomous words.

At the same time, her hands were busy as well.

Almost while ensuring the co-driver remained coherent, she disassembled every dismountable part from his body.

Jiang Xiao even saw intestines and an appendix wriggling on the ground...

And he was still not dead.

Xiao Qi intentionally used her power to maintain the co-driver’s life.

The co-driver wanted to say something...

But his tongue had already been brutally ripped out by Xiao Qi.

He clearly was in the mortal world, yet he prematurely experienced the joy of the tongue-pulling hell, one of the eighteen levels of hell; who knows if that counted as gaining insight.

Jiang Xiao just quietly watched.

He didn’t think Xiao Qi was going overboard.

From an emotional point of view,

Xiao Qi had to watch as her mother was desecrated by the co-driver who led the way.

At the same time, she had to serve as the "receiver", transforming the strange power to feed these enemies, while she silently endured the pain.

From a rational point of view,

It was only killing a co-driver, after all; it couldn’t be considered a rampant slaughter, nor would it cause Xiao Qi to completely lose control.

Jiang Xiao was glad that the girl could vent a bit.

Although, Xiao Qi currently didn’t seem like a good person.

But in Analog Horror, how could there possibly be such a thing as a good person?

Countless past lessons had prepared Jiang Xiao well.

Nai Zi had been struggling on her own in the strange world for so long.

Jiang Xiao didn’t believe she could maintain the persona of a "good person" forever.

Ling Zi was the same; neither was a good bird.

"Forget it, the train can now arrive normally, just make sure Xiao Qi doesn’t act recklessly, her existence is very special, and no one should trouble her."

Nai Zi and Ling Zi nodded, indicating their understanding.

Jiang Xiao was not worried someone would take Xiao Qi away for research.

As a "receiver," if she were provoked into a rampage, that power would definitely be more than they could bear.

Xiao Qi was like a 1000-ton yield NTN.

And it was the flammable kind, at that.

Everyone would only coax her; nobody would be foolish enough to irritate her and light her up, right?

After saying goodbye to Nai Zi, Jiang Xiao followed the feeling and returned to the white space.

"Where’s Shi Shi? Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Jiang Xiao was as joyful as a three-hundred-pound fat man.

"She has always been here; she’s in an ancient castle, but you’ve got to pick her up yourself."

Jiang Xiao nodded; it indeed seemed better to go get her himself.

It was because of his sudden deal that their family got separated.

Now, only by personally picking her up would it feel like a full-fledged ceremony.

"Ancient castle? She didn’t turn into some princess, did she?"

"If that’s what you want to think, pretty much."

"Just like Shi Shi! Just from her beast ears, I knew that no matter where she went, she would surely be very likable!"

"Moreover, there has been a Prince in the castle who has been relentlessly pursuing her."

Jiang Xiao’s smile stiffened on his face.

What in the hell?

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, send me in! Blind damn thing, daring to chase any girl!"

"You don’t plan to be a grandfather?"

"I’ll be his damn ancestor!"

Jiang Xiao puffed his cheeks and glared, itching to tear that so-called Prince to pieces right then and there!

Fortunately, from Kaidan’s tone of voice, everything seemed to be just that damn Prince’s one-sided badgering, and Shi Shi did not seem to have agreed to him.

"Go on in then, but be careful, that Prince’s family has some rather inhumane hobbies."
