The City of Terror Chapter 444

Chapter 444 - Trouble Comes

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

 After all, with the kind of place he was in, it would be impossible for him to remain vigilant to all kinds of danger. Perhaps an even greater danger would arrive soon, and it would be impossible for him to run away.

No matter what was said, a single leg compared to two legs would have a big influence on his running speed.

Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei did not continue staying there. He first used one leg to jump around the giant hole and touch around here and there. In the end, he did not find anything and went to the church’s remains. He tried to feel around attempting to see if anything had been left behind.

Unfortunately, the fiery bird that the red sword turned into was simply too powerful. Wei Xiao Bei inspected the place for quite a while and other than hardened soil, everything had been burnt to trash. He did not even find anything.

In the end, Wei Xiao Bie could only close his eyes and leave silently. Soon after, his body began to become transparent as he left the Dust World.

When Wei Xiao Bei left the Dust World, he opened his eyes and appeared in the place he entered the Dust World.

He was in the bushes located at the foot of the mountain.

He touched his left leg as the blood had already stopped flowing. Some flesh sprouts had begun to bud as he was slowly recovering his lost leg.

If a single finger was broken, Wei Xiao Bei’s recovery ability would heal him quite fast.

However, his thigh was chopped off this time. This had already exceeded the limit of his [Limb Regrowth], but it still had a bit of an effect. However, if he wished to completely recover it would take at least a month!

Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei could only sigh as he walked out of the bushes.

Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei’s storage bracelet had clothes that he could change into. Otherwise, let alone the newly missing leg, just the bloodstains and dust on his clothes would probably get him reported to the police.

After getting rid of the blood on his body and changing into new clothes, Wei Xiao Bie got up and began to jump toward the road.

At this moment, it was around three in the morning. With Bai Ta County’s economic situation, it can be imagined how many taxis there were on the road.

Wei Xiao Bei stood on the road for more than an hour before finding a big truck. He waved his hand and the truck stopped. The driver cautiously poked his head out and asked, “What are you doing?”

“Master, can I have a ride?”

If he could Wei Xiao Bei was willing to jump back with just a single leg, but if it had been seen by others, the disturbance would be quite big.

“Get in.”

Perhaps because the driver saw that Wei Xiao Bei was a disabled person, he did not reject him. He even helped him open the door and asked if he needed some help.

Wei Xiao Bei did not need any help. He got in the car and thanked the driver.

However, when Wei Xiao Bei got up, the driver regretted a bit.

If he was far away it was still good, but once he got closer, the stench of blood on Wei Xiao Bei’s body immediately drifted to the driver’s seat.

Wei Xiao Bei understood this when he saw the driver’s strange expression. He immediately smiled and explained that he had just helped his relative kill a pig and was coming back. Only then did the driver’s expression become a bit better.

When the driver reached the city gates, Wei Xiao Bei got down and then called a taxi as he returned to the place he had rented in the county.

Wei Xiao Bei did not dare return home with his current appearance. If his parents saw him, the disturbance that it could create would be huge.

When he returned to the rental place, Wei Xiao Bie took a seat on the sofa and turned on the television at a low volume. This was to conceal any movement that he made. Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei turned on his phone and began to search.

The Master of the Sun Palace, Immortal King Xiao Dao

This was the person the Ming Lun Envoy mentioned that could help him heal Zhao Yun. He needed someone from the Sun Palace.

However, there was not much information about the Immortal King Xiao Dao.

From the internet, it said that he was one of the Taoist gods.

According to the western Buddhist teachings, it should be a sun god that was the master of the Sun Palace. But there was no explanation of his relationship to the Golden Crow.

Wei Xiao Bei shook his head and immediately opened a new tab to search for the red horse, magic cloud, carriage, old man, hair turning into a sword, and things of the like. However, he could not find the old man’s identity in the end.

Wei Xiao Bei thought for a bit and felt that this was normal. There were simply too many gods in the Chinese system. Moreover, the old man might not even be in his true form.

In the end, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but put this matter aside as he took out the talisman from his storage bag. He placed it on the table and carefully inspected it.

 So this is a Spirit Tablet Talisman?

The so-called Spirit Tablet Talisman should be the talisman that dictated the position of the Shing Wong Border Patroller. Without the Talisman, the border patroller would not be a proper god.

After taking out the white talisman, it kept radiating out white light without any changes. At first, some veined patterns on it appeared like birds and beasts. In the end, it kept changing as time passed.

These patterns gave a mystical feeling to those who see it. Wei Xiao Bei could faintly feel the use of the veined patterns. He immediately recorded the changes to the veined patterns.

The changes happened fast. In less than a minute, it had already changed more than ten times, but the changes were consistent. In the end, the patterns entered a cycle.

Looking at it, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but throw a [Status Appraisal] at it.

Name: White Imperial Edict Talisman (Immortal)

Description: This item is conferred by the system of the Heavens to Land Gods. It contains the aura of the heavenly law.

However, the effects that should appear were not there.

Wei Xiao Bei could feel that the information in the description was a lot.

 System of the Imperial Court?

Thinking about it, Wei Xiao Bei came to realize some things. After hesitating, he placed back the talisman in his storage bracelet.

Leaving this object in his hands was a disaster, not a gift.

The next time he returns to the Dust World, he would return it to the Shing Wong Temple.

After making this decision in his head, Wei Xiao Bei relaxed as mysterious dangers disappeared.

In truth, although nothing much happened this time, his spirit was in a bad state. At this time, he decided to relax to relieve his tired mind.

After checking the situation of his leg’s recovery, Wei Xiao Bei drank ten drops of Secondary Spring Water of Youth and slept on the sofa.

In the morning, the chirping birds had woken up Wei Xiao Bei.

After a good rest, Wei Xiao Bei woke up full of energy. He wanted to train in the garden and loosen his muscles, but unfortunately, his leg was still cut off. Let alone training, even getting in a stance would be hard.

Luckily, after feeling it, Wei Xiao Bei’s leg had recovered by about three inches.

The effects of the Secondary Spring Water of Youth was quite good, but the consumption was a bit big.

Wei Xiao Bei only had 966 drops of spring water left. If he wanted to increase his healing speed he would probably require more than a hundred drops.

Naturally, this was a side effect of Wei Xiao Bei continuously increasing his power. If it was a normal person with Wei Xiao Bei’s powerful recovery ability, they would probably only need around twenty drops to fully heal such an injury.

Since he could not train or go home, Wei Xiao Bei watched the television and could not help but curl his lips. This could not be helped as he felt that soap operas nowadays were getting worse. The level of quality was lower compared to when he was a child. In short, it did not suit him at all.

Since he had nothing to do, Wei Xiao Bei concentrated on the Fledgling Life Altar in his hands after eating breakfast.

He began to ponder whether he should feed it the Ash Essence or not.

From the description of the Ash Essence, it should be edible, but the results were unknown. Wei Xiao Bei felt that giving it to the Life Altar would lead to grave consequences.

 I should not do it now!

At the very least, he put back the decision until he had fully recovered.

Wei Xiao Bei had even used [Bold and Decisive] to make this judgment.

“Fight as we’re ordered, do as we’re told!”

Just when Wei Xiao Bei was checking his status panel, his phone suddenly rang.

“Hello, is this Mr. Wei? We are Bai Ta County Police. We are inspecting a case that requires your assistance. Can I ask where you are at the moment?”

After answering the phone, Wei Xiao Bei’s heart jumped. The call was actually from Bai Ta County’s police. Wei Xiao Bei had suspected that the place he was renting had already been surrounded and they were only waiting for confirmation on his location before breaking in.

However, after using [Response Reaction], Wei Xiao Bei eliminated this possibility as there was no one outside the door. He had just been too suspicious.

After carefully thinking, he did not leave any evidence from killing human trash. If there was something, then it would be the nearby farmers that saw their scruple on the road. However, if someone came to his place after eliminating the human trash, then the traces of blood would possibly attract some attention.

Although Wei Xiao Bei had let the Life Altar absorb all the flesh and blood, there was a possibility that a spot of bloodstain had been left on the ground.

After connecting the two, as someone who had a connection with the other party, the police had landed on his name. This was normal.

“I am currently in Bai Ta County, do I need to go to the police station?”

Although he began to ponder a question, Wei Xiao Bei’s tone of voice did not change as it was incredibly calm.

After accepting going to the police office to make a statement, Wei Xiao Bei concluded. He had not been included in the list of major suspects. At most, the police only had a little bit of suspicion. They only wanted him to provide some clues.
