Chapter 274: 274: People Can Lie, But Souls Can’t! (3rd Update)



Griffin swallowed hard, not daring to speak anymore.

He understood what Xue An meant—if he dared to lie, then Xue An would make his soul disperse just like the Night Devil Empress.

“Are you a daemon of the Dark Races?” Xue An asked.

“Yes!” Griffin replied with utmost respect.

Xue An nodded, casually waved his hand, and a black Talisman Spell was imprinted on Griffin’s forehead.

Griffin felt a searing pain in his head and looked at Xue An with a face full of horror.

“I’ve planted a Curse Mark in your soul, if you harbor any other thoughts, your daemon soul will be burned by the Karmic Fire!”

Hearing Xue An’s words, Griffin’s legs went weak, and he knelt down on the ground, his eyes filled with despair as he looked at Xue An.

Xue An scanned the venue.

By now, people had recovered from their initial shock, but no one dared to come forward.

After all, Xue An’s performance had been too frightening.

It was nothing short of divine and demonic.

An Yan came over with Xue Xiang and Xue Nian.

“Meng Xue Auntie, you’re back!”

The two little girls had lost their initial resistance and asked with smiles on their faces.

Fan Mengxue nodded, then looked at An Yan with some embarrassment.

An Yan smiled, “It’s good that you’ve returned! These days, you must have suffered a lot!”

“Thank you, Sister An!” Fan Mengxue said softly.

At that moment, Mr. Long hesitated at a distance, not daring to come over.

Xue An smiled and said, “Mr. Long, it seems we cannot continue the banquet tonight. How about we change the location? Let’s also take the opportunity to celebrate for Meng Xue!”

Mr. Long was slightly startled, then also nodded with a smile, “That sounds good, I’ve been feeling suffocated here anyway! Especially the words and actions of some people earlier, utterly nauseating!”

His words made many people bow their heads in shame.

Xue An smiled, “All right! Let’s go!”

He wasn’t about to hold a grudge against these people.

It wasn’t until they left the venue that Xue An realized Shen Kang and his daughter were anxiously waiting at a distance.

They had heard about the incident inside, but didn’t dare to enter and could only wait outside.

Seeing Xue An come out safely, they both breathed a sigh of relief and quickly came up to greet him.

“Mr. Xue, it’s good that you’re alright. You scared us to death!” Shen Kang exclaimed, then noticed Fan Mengxue and Mr. Long standing next to him.

“Miss Fan, Mr. Long!” Shen Kang exclaimed in surprise.

Xue An smiled, “Since we didn’t get to enjoy the banquet here, why not go back to your place and eat?”

Shen Kang was overjoyed, “It would be an honor!”

After they had left,

The people at the venue began to come out, still shaken, and started recounting what happened to the M Country law enforcement officers who had arrived late.

Once this information was compiled and reported to the FBI, the head of the intelligence department read the report and broke out in a cold sweat.

Many of M Country’s notables had been hijacked by a dark overlord of the City of Sin, and Huaxia’s number one danger had also appeared at the venue.

If anything had gone wrong, resigning wouldn’t be enough to take responsibility!

So he picked up the phone and started lambasting the department responsible for security.

After venting his anger, the security chief asked cautiously,

“Chief, what should we do next? Should we try to keep this Xue An in M Country?”

“Nonsense! Do you have crap in your head?” The intelligence chief was furious again!

“Didn’t you hear the news? Xue An has subdued that Bone Picker Griffin. What does that tell you?”

The security manager on the other end of the phone was embarrassed.

“For God’s sake, if you were in front of me right now, I’d strangle you! It means Xue An is definitely going to the City of Sin!”

“I heard something very precious has emerged in the City of Sin, and those big shots of the Dark Races are getting restless. Isn’t it perfect if Xue An goes there? Let them fight like dogs!”

At this point, the head of intelligence started to feel somewhat cheerful, “Also, remember to lock this down tightly, and impose a gag order on all witnesses! I don’t want to wake up tomorrow, check my phone, and find it flooded with news of gods, demons, and monsters! This is the Land of the Chosen, M Country! It’s not the land of charlatans!”

“Yes!” the security manager responded loudly.

After hanging up, the intelligence chief silently prayed.

Dear God, please let this Divine Slaughter leave M Country soon. Every day he stays on this land, I lose a year of my life!

Meanwhile, this unfortunate intelligence boss was silently praying, Xue An and Fan Mengxue, among others, were enjoying a warm dinner.

Actually, it should be called a late-night snack.

During the meal, everyone was drinking and chatting merrily.

Mr. Long is truly an old-timer who has been mingling in Hollywood for many years. He was well-informed about many strange and unusual stories, and he made them sound so funny when told by him!

The atmosphere was lively, and even Fan Mengxue, who had not completely emerged from oppression, couldn’t help but smile.

Only Griffin was in a corner, miserably gnawing on dry bread.

It wasn’t intentional mistreatment, but now, as soon as he saw Xue An, the suppression from the depths of his soul would make him kneel uncontrollably.

Satan, please show some mercy and let me escape from this guy soon! Griffin was fervently praying in his heart.

But clearly, when his Satan heard that the other party was Xue An, he too wanted to get away as far as possible!

After a full meal and drinks, Mr. Long prepared to leave.

Xue An came out to see him off. Regardless, Mr. Long’s character had earned Xue An’s respect!

“Mr. Xue! You… are you a Cultivator?”

Xue An smiled, “Mr. Long knows about this too?”

Mr. Long nodded, “When you live long enough, you encounter some entities that ordinary people can’t understand, but I’ve never seen anyone as formidable as Mr. Xue!”

Mr. Long paused, then said, “Actually, I really want to advise you not to go to the City of Sin. But then I thought, it’s better not to say it!”

“Oh? Why is that?”

“Because I know it would be useless to say it!” Mr. Long said helplessly, spreading his hands.

Xue An burst into laughter.

This Mr. Long truly is a remarkable person!

Once back in the house, Griffin was kneeling in the corner, facing the wall in penance.

“It seems you are quite afraid of me?” Xue An said indifferently.

Griffin didn’t dare to speak.

“Don’t worry, as long as you cooperate well, I won’t kill you. Instead, I will help you claim the throne of the City of Sin!”

Griffin suddenly looked up, a light shining in his eyes.

“My lord…”

Xue An waved his hand, “But first, you need to explain the situation in the City of Sin clearly!”

Griffin nodded vigorously, affirming the request, then he went on to describe the City of Sin in detail.

The City of Sin was a common name for the place because it was located on the edge of the desert in M Country, where the environment was harsh, and no one wanted to go there.

Later, it gradually became a gathering place for fugitives, and in recent years it grew and expanded.

Now it was truly a vast city.

There, darkness was a constant companion, and sin was an everyday occurrence.

There were no laws, no moral constraints!

Everything was out in the open!

And among it all, there were three individuals whose power was the most formidable.

At this point, Griffin chuckled, “I’m one of them! Known as the Bone Picker!”
