Chu Hao lunged forward, his speed incredible, and grabbed Jiang Yuming by the throat in an instant.

Jiang Yuming’s expression changed dramatically; he hadn’t expected Chu Hao to be so fast. The seven to eight-meter distance was crossed in the blink of an eye.

How could he know that Chu Hao moved at twenty meters per second? Though not as exaggerated as Superman, in the eyes of ordinary people, there was little difference.

Chu Hao said coldly, "I, the Taoist Master, can’t even be bothered to kill vermin like you. And you dare to act so presumptuously before me?"

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 500 show-off points."

Jiang Yuming struggled painfully, his neck gripped. Chu Hao’s hand was too strong; he was nearly choking.

Many onlookers were stunned. Chu Hao was simply terrifying. Among them was Liu Qingyan, who, instead of fleeing with the crowd, watched Chu Hao with excitement.

Two others also remained: Mu Yufei was one, and she found Chu Hao increasingly incredible.

The last was Lang Xi, who considered Chu Hao a target to surpass.

Lang Xi was completely dumbfounded. Previously, he had been terrified of Xia Lu, but now a flicker of fanaticism sparked within him.

Is the gap between us really that vast? Like the Earth’s equator?

Now *that’s* a real man! So commanding, so damn handsome!

Lang Xi was incredibly excited.

Chu Hao searched Jiang Yuming and found a Dragon and Tiger Talisman—a tiger-shaped jade pendant with strong evil-warding properties.

"Ding... A Longhu Curse Jade has been discovered. It can be exchanged for show-off points."

An unexpected gain, indeed.

"Exchange."

"Ding... Host has exchanged the Longhu Curse Jade, gaining 1,000 show-off points."

Jiang Yuming despaired.

"Don’t... don’t kill me! My... my brother is an Elder of the Dragon Tiger Sect! He’ll avenge me!"

Chu Hao threw him to the ground. Looking down at him, he said, "I won’t kill you now."

Am I saved? Jiang Yuming thought excitedly. It seemed his brother’s reputation in their circles was significant; who would dare to touch him?

This was why Jiang Yuming was so arrogant, treating ordinary people like dirt.

Moreover, he was a pervert who enjoyed toying with women.

Using I Ching divination, Chu Hao determined that this man carried heavy negative karma; he must have caused more than one death. He said coldly, "You’ve killed quite a few, haven’t you? Where are their bodies? Where is Xia Lu’s body?"

Jiang Yuming snarled, "My brother will avenge me! You’re dead! Absolutely dead!"

Chu Hao drew the Night Demon Blade and, with a swift cut, severed Jiang Yuming’s ear. "So, you won’t cry until you see the coffin, is that it?"

Jiang Yuming screamed in agony, not expecting Chu Hao to actually strike, let alone cut off his ear.

"Don’t worry! I have plenty of time to play with you. Cutting off your ear is just the beginning. Do you know what a ’human stick’ is? I’m going to carve you into one."

"Ding... Host’s Scary Show Off was successful, gaining 500 show-off points."

Damn it!

A human stick?

Jiang Yuming trembled all over. Of course, he knew what a ’human stick’ was: it meant having all the protruding parts of one’s body cut or shaved flat, until one resembled a mere stick.

"No, please don’t! I... I’ll take you there!" Jiang Yuming, utterly terrified, pleaded.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Mu Yufei said, "Ah-Hao, I want to take a look."

"It might be quite disgusting. Are you sure you want to go, Sister Yu Fei?" Chu Hao asked.

Mu Yufei nodded.

"Alright then."

Lang Xi ran over. He was a "sea turtle"—someone who had returned after studying/living in Europe and America. He said excitedly, "Love rival! No, Brother Hao, my dearest brother, can I come along and see too?"

Chu Hao sized him up. This guy is quite interesting. Wasn’t he just treating me as a love rival before?

"If you want to go, then go."

Liu Qingyan and the others who hadn’t fled the hall were also very curious. They likely understood what was happening now: Jiang Yuming was a murderer, and Chu Hao was delivering justice!

Realizing this, their fear lessened, and they all wanted to see what was happening.

Once curiosity is piqued, it’s hard to suppress. A few people followed, wanting to witness the truth.

Liu Qingyan and Lang Xi, equally curious, also came along.

Jiang Yuming’s crime scene was right there in the Liu Guang Building, where he had lived for years. The group arrived at the basement.

When Jiang Yuming switched on the basement lights, everyone was stunned by the scene inside!!

"HOLY SHIT!!" Lang Xi immediately threw up.

Mu Yufei couldn’t stand it either. Being a germaphobe, she had the most violent reaction, vomiting profusely.

Liu Qingyan also vomited uncontrollably. This was even more disgusting than when Cao Shanhe’s Eldest Aunt’s body had melted.

They saw that the storage basement was filled with corpses.

Some bodies were dissected, others decapitated. Some were even treated as art pieces, displayed in large medical preservation tanks.

One could clearly see a woman’s corpse. She had an excellent, curvaceous figure and had been killed by Jiang Yuming, then put on display like an exhibit.

Beyond that, there were countless other items: tongues, eyes, teeth, women’s fingers, skulls—the list went on.

Even Chu Hao was somewhat shocked. This scene feels familiar... The twin girls from before had also been killed and joined together. This was undoubtedly the work of a psychopathic murderer.

"Are... are these real people?" Mu Yufei asked, her face deathly pale.

Seeing these things, Jiang Yuming, who had initially been trembling with fear, suddenly wasn’t afraid anymore. He even seemed excited.

"Beautiful, aren’t they? Magnificent, don’t you think? These women were all carefully chosen by me. They’re all my treasures."

The man had completely lost his mind. His secret, hidden for years, was now uncovered, yet he wasn’t panicking. Instead, he was introducing his ’art pieces’ to everyone.

"FUCK! What a freak!" Lang Xi was utterly shocked.

Chu Hao was furious, overcome with rage. A sudden, profound sorrow washed over him.

What has happened to this society?

How could such a person still be alive, killing one innocent after another, wielding power and evading justice?!

If I hadn’t accidentally come here today, wouldn’t even more people have fallen victim to Jiang Yuming?

"How many people are here?" someone asked, shocked.

Jiang Yuming, his sickness evident, answered eagerly, "One hundred and eight. Pretty, right?"

Pretty?!

He actually called it pretty.

"You son of a bitch! I’ll kill you!" Lang Xi roared, rushing forward and kicking Jiang Yuming in the face.

Many couldn’t stand it any longer. Feeling the same rage as Lang Xi, they rushed forward one after another to beat Jiang Yuming.

Even Mu Yufei and Liu Qingyan joined in, filled with utter contempt for Jiang Yuming.

Chu Hao’s face was dark, his heart heavy with sorrow, as he walked deeper into the underground storage.

There, he found three large beds. A female corpse lay on each, dressed up and seemingly resting peacefully. On one, her underwear hung loosely around her thigh.

Lang Xi and a few men dragged the limp form of Jiang Yuming, like a dead dog, over to Chu Hao. "And what is this?" Lang Xi demanded angrily.

Wincing in pain, Jiang Yuming muttered, "They were... my usual playthings."

FUCK!!

Just how twisted could one person be?
