Li Yuan's figure shot out of the room like an arrow.

The bodyguards reacted the fastest, shouting:

"Fire! Stop him!"

The dark muzzle of the gun was aimed at Li Yuan, and a hail of bullets poured out.

It seemed as if they were about to turn Li Yuan into a hornet's nest at any moment.

At the same time, the Wendigos also let out hoarse roars.

They lunged at each other from both sides, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, wanting to avenge the divine messenger!

Bullets rained down upon them.

Just as Li Yuan was about to be hit,

A pale yellow shield immediately enveloped him.

The bullets were deflected the moment they hit the shield.

Before the crowd outside could even gasp in surprise,

The next second, Li Yuan, wielding a blood-red sword, streaked through the crowd like a meteor, leaving only a fleeting afterimage.

There were no superfluous moves; wherever the sword passed, blood splattered.

The bodyguard's screams and Wendigo's wails mingled together.

The severed limbs rolled down the steps, and blood splattered on the stone walls of the castle, staining the area red.

In the blink of an eye, all thirty-odd people who had surrounded Li Yuan had fallen to the ground.

Li Yuan slowly lowered the sword, the blood droplet at the tip of the sword hanging there, slowly seeping into the sword body.

Li Yuan walked downstairs step by step, expressionless.

The shield on his body slowly disappeared, leaving only a mess and deathly silence.

[Ding! 13 C-rank Wendigos eliminated, gaining 65 Holy Light Points and 1300 Experience Points!]

[Ding! 22 F-rank cultists eliminated, gaining 44 Holy Light Points and 220 Experience Points!]

As the notification sound rang in his ears, Li Yuan strolled down to the next floor's corridor.

Li Yuan had no intention of letting anyone here go; he planned to cleanse them layer by layer.

You can tell from the two maids he encountered when he infiltrated the place.

In this ancient castle, probably no one is innocent.

Li Yuan looked down the corridor at the two trembling cultists who were facing him.

He said in a deep voice:

"Today, the Qi family... no, wait..."

Today, everyone in the Pa Teng family must die!

I said it! Even the god of Wendigo couldn't save us!

Before Li Yuan finished speaking, he instantly moved and rushed towards the cultist who was pointing a gun at him!

If they say they'll kill George Patten's entire family, then they'll kill his entire family.

Li Yuan has always been a man of his word!

For a moment, screams of agony echoed throughout the castle.

Bright red blood flowed slowly, staining the marble floor crimson.

Li Yuan systematically eliminated the remaining members of the Pa Teng family.

He is fulfilling the promise he made.

Aside from George Patten and someone else who could put him to a fight,

The other Wendigos and human cultists were no match for him.

After Li Yuan eliminated the last cultist on the first floor in a secret room,

This purge of cults is also coming to an end.

[Ding! 25 C-rank Wendigos eliminated, gaining 125 Holy Light Points and 2500 Experience Points!]

[Ding! 57 F-rank cultists eliminated, gaining 114 Holy Light Points and 570 Experience Points!]

This wave of experience gain will allow Li Yuan to level up soon, and his Holy Light value will reach 400+.

After calming his restless mind, Li Yuan...

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, sheathed the Brotherhood sword, and prepared to turn and leave.

But at that moment, Li Yuan's ears twitched slightly.

They keenly noticed a rustling sound coming from under the floorboards.

"Heh, looks like there are still some who slipped through the net."

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes and drew the Brotherhood sword once more.

I slowly walked towards the direction from which the sound came from.

After passing through a small door, Li Yuan discovered a hidden entrance to a basement.

Several bloodstained footprints remain on the marble steps there.

As Li Yuan walked down the steps, he called out softly:

"Where did you run off to, you naughty little mouse?"

The mocking voices echoed in the empty basement.

Like the clarion call of a death warrant, it was terrifying.

After Li Yuan entered the basement

To their astonishment, they discovered that within the enormous space inside...

Two rows of large iron cages were placed there.

Inside one of the iron cages with a sign that read "Food,"

Inside were several large, robust men, who lay listlessly.

They showed no reaction to Li Yuan's arrival.

On the other side, the sign on the iron cage reads "Sacrifice".

Inside sat several excited young women; the noise was coming from them.

The girls, their mouths gagged with needle and thread, frantically shook the iron chains in their hands.

His eyes darted toward the passage between the two cages, alerting Li Yuan that someone was inside.

Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he nodded to signal them to be quiet.

Then, he quickly chased after them towards the passage.

Inside the dimly lit, spiraling downward passage,

On the walls on both sides, some dim yellow wall lamps were lit.

Li Yuan could vaguely see several bloodstained footprints heading downwards.

After searching for a long time, Li Yuan suddenly saw a clear view before him.

A huge underground palace appeared before Li Yuan.

Li Yuan stood there, stunned, carefully examining the situation inside the palace.

In the very center of the deepest part of the palace stood a tall and eerie Wendigo statue.

Its appearance is almost identical to George Patton's when he transforms.

However, the statue in front of us looked even taller.

On the altar below the statue, a girl in hemp clothing was bound.

A young man knelt before the idol and kowtowed frantically.

At the same time, he was chanting an ambiguous prayer.

Seeing this, Li Yuan's heart sank, and he quickly ran towards the man.

At this point, his skills were almost exhausted.

If he were to face an opponent like George Patten again,

It looks like things are going to turn out badly!

The palaces were large and far apart.

Li Yuan could only keep shortening the distance between himself and the man.

He was ready to unleash the [Hammer of Retribution] at any moment to interrupt the man's sacrifice.

However, to Li Yuan's disappointment...

Even though he rushed as fast as he could, he still couldn't stop the man from successfully sacrificing himself.

At that moment, a burst of blood-red light suddenly emanated from the eyes of the Wendigo statue.

In an instant, the girl on the altar was drained of her skin and turned into a dried-up corpse.

Before Li Yuan could even utter a sound of surprise,

The girl, now a dried-up corpse, actually pulled out her own heart and handed it to the man.

Her bloodshot eyes were fixed on Li Yuan.

A hoarse, eerie voice emanated from its mouth, speaking to the man:

"Eat it to avenge your father..."

The man was none other than George Patten's only son, Bill Patten.

Bill Patten, his face contorted with resentment, swallowed the dried-up heart whole.

He then turned around, his eyes fixed on Li Yuan, who was running towards him.

After swallowing the jerky in his mouth, he roared at Li Yuan:

"Give me back my father's life, you damned stranger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bill Patten's body swelled up dramatically.

A dazzling red light suddenly burst forth from his chest.

It seemed he was about to become a giant Wendigo, just like George Patten.

At this point, Li Yuan was less than 50 meters away from Bill Patten.

Most of his skills were able to hit the opponent.

Just as Li Yuan was about to use magic to interfere with it, something unexpected happened.

Bill Patten's swollen body suddenly stopped.

Immediately afterwards, the skin on my body swelled up like an inflated balloon.

Li Yuan stared at Bill Patten with wide eyes, and couldn't help but tease him:

"Holy crap? You two transform and you don't even have the same look?"

Before Li Yuan could finish speaking...

Bill Patten, whose entire body had inflated like a balloon, suddenly exploded!

'Bang!'

A tremendous noise echoed through the palace, and blood foam rained down on Li Yuan below.
