Chapter 18: Returning to the Soul Village, Murder!

Not to mention that the God of Death already had the ability to listen to Liu Yuan's thoughts...

The God of Death, having known Liu Yuan for a long time, had a deep understanding of his character. Therefore, Liu Yuan didn't need to say much at this moment as the God of Death had already guessed his thoughts.

However, the God of Death did not agree with Liu Yuan's thoughts. He shook his head and said, "I know what you're thinking. You want to seek revenge against Yu Xiaogang..."

"But as I mentioned earlier, the avatar created by the ghost-faced mask can have at most one percent of your main body's strength."

"But think about how much power you currently possess. Although your main body has reached the Soul Ancestor level of cultivation, when it comes to actual combat, many Soul Emperors are not your match..."

"But that's your main body, not your avatar. If we consider the avatar, which only has one percent of your strength, I'm afraid it wouldn't even be able to defeat Yu Xiaogang himself."

"So seeking revenge against him is completely unrealistic."

"Based on my estimation, if you want your avatar to have enough strength to kill Yu Xiaogang... then you would need at least the strength of a Rank 60 Spirit Master. And that's considering the high level of your subsequent spirit rings. Otherwise, even if it's a Rank 60, using only one percent of its power, it might not be able to kill Yu Xiaogang."

The God of Death explained to Liu Yuan bit by bit.

Upon hearing the God of Death's words, even though Liu Yuan was eager for revenge, he had to admit that the God of Death made sense.

So he had to temporarily abandon the plan to hunt down Yu Xiaogang. For now, the priority was to quickly raise his own cultivation to Rank 60. Only then could he seek revenge against Yu Xiaogang as soon as possible.

They pondered for a moment and then turned their gaze to the God of Death on the side.

"Well, in that case, I will temporarily set aside that plan."

"But if killing Yu Xiaogang is not an option... how about going back to the Soul Village? Shouldn't that be possible?"

"It's been a long time since I last went back, and I'm curious about the current situation of the village."

Liu Yuan asked the God of Death.

This time, the God of Death did not stop Liu Yuan but nodded and said, "That's not a problem. You can send your avatar there while your main body continues to stay here to receive the inheritance."

Liu Yuan nodded in response. "Good."

He quickly proceeded according to the plan.

Under the condition that his main body continued to stay in the place of inheritance under the God of Death, Liu Yuan swiftly sent his avatar in the direction of the Soul Village.

This process took nearly a month of time. Although Liu Yuan couldn't reach the place of inheritance before, not because it was particularly distant or difficult, but due to the God of Death's tests. Moreover, his current strength was indeed far superior compared to before... But even so, the journey was still quite long.

Therefore, he exerted great effort to finally arrive near the Soul Village.

The surroundings of the Soul Village still looked almost the same as before.

On the way, he even passed by the land where he was buried alive by Tang San and others. Liu Yuan stood on the ground, where several shovels were still there, remnants left by Tang San and the others. Everything felt as if it happened just yesterday...

After witnessing this scene, Liu Yuan remained silent for a long time, and it seemed like a raging fire was burning in his pitch-black pupils.

He once again reminded himself to enhance his strength and obtain the inheritance.

Then, he would gradually repay the humiliation he suffered to Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, bit by bit.

After pausing for a while, he turned and left, finally arriving at the entrance of the Soul Village.

However, this time he only intended to observe secretly. He simply wanted to see the current situation of the villagers. As for revealing his identity, he would wait until the day he obtained the complete inheritance and became the new God of Death, then he would reveal himself after leaving the place of inheritance.

Otherwise, knowing too many secrets wouldn't be a good thing for the defenseless villagers.

But as soon as he infiltrated the village, something unusual happened.

He realized that many villagers had suffered minor injuries.

"What's going on?"

Liu Yuan's brows furrowed upon realizing this, and a strong resentment was revealed in his gaze.

He started going from house to house to investigate, and as he investigated, he discovered that many villagers had been injured. Coincidentally, from the discussions of some of the villagers, he learned that they had been robbed by a group of bandits in the vicinity, leading to their current situation.

"Bandits? They're asking for death!"

Liu Yuan's anger flared up as soon as he learned about this.

He didn't continue to stay in the village but turned around and headed straight for the bandits' hideout, where they had raided the village this time.

Clearly, to Liu Yuan, the villagers were like family. Seeing his direct family members being oppressed by bandits was something he absolutely couldn't accept.

He quickly arrived at the bandits' hideout, kicking open the gate.

The bandits were startled by Liu Yuan's sudden appearance, but as soon as they saw that it was a masked figure of a young boy, their faces immediately showed a strong coldness. "Brat, you're asking for death! Chop him up!"

Immediately, a small group of bandits charged at Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan sneered and summoned his martial soul.

Although he could only use one percent of his power, these bandits before him were like rotten fish and shrimp. Most of them didn't even possess soul power, and the few who did had no spirit rings.

How could Liu Yuan fear such scum?

He took out his sickle and directly slashed at the bandits attacking him, cutting them to pieces.

Each bandit was killed on the spot by Liu Yuan's sickle, and even a complete corpse couldn't be guaranteed.

But Liu Yuan's expression remained calm.

As the inheritor of the God of Death, killing was as simple as eating and drinking for him. Not to mention killing these few bandits, even if he slaughtered the entire group, he wouldn't bat an eye.

Therefore, holding his sickle, he continued to approach the group of bandits step by step.

On the other side.

Originally, these bandits were all full of momentum.

But as soon as they saw their companions being killed in just a few moves, they knew that this young boy was extraordinary. They felt an extremely terrifying killing intent emanating from him, which almost scared them all to wet their pants.

As a result, one by one, the bandits quickly lost their courage.

They knelt before Liu Yuan, begging for mercy and kowtowing incessantly.

"Sir! Hero! We don't know what we've done to offend you? Spare our lives!"

"As long as you spare us, we're willing to do anything!"
