The white-haired old man remained silent, realizing that he had underestimated Lu Yu's strength. The power he sensed was merely a fraction of the uncontainable force leaking from Lu Yu's body, just the tip of the iceberg.
When Lu Yu created a ring of frost to freeze all the demonic hunters, he felt a formidable power so awe-inspiring that it was beyond his imagination.
Looking deeply at Lu Yu, the demon man turned and fled.
Lu Yu floated half a meter above the ground, raising his head to watch the demon man run away, activating the power of his Ice Jade Eyes.
The third ability of the Ice Jade Eyes—Control Ice.
Chilling air condensed around the demon man, frost spread across his body. Feeling the soul-freezing cold, the flesh on his body wriggled endlessly, trying to rid itself of the frost.
Chunks of blood-frozen flesh detached from the demon man's body and smashed into fragments on the ground.
However, the demon man's attempt to escape his shell didn't free him from the freezing cold, as he hadn't left Lu Yu's range of Spiritual Power control. No matter how much he struggled, it was futile.
Crack, crack, crack~ The demon man's movements gradually stiffened, and an incomplete ice sculpture appeared at the factory entrance. Shattered ice crystals lay scattered around it, with bits of flesh frozen inside.
Chi Yan looked at the white-haired old man. Seeing the demon man's fate, he wished he could kill this old man who woke him up. Though sleeping might not necessarily avoid this terrifying human, at least it spared him from experiencing despair.
"Old man, stimulate my spirit, let's go for broke! Surviving this is already a win!" Flames erupted from Chi Yan's body as he spoke viciously.
The white-haired old man was slightly taken aback before a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.
"Ah!" Chi Yan let out a horrified scream, falling to the ground and rolling while clutching his head. The flames on his body grew larger, forcing the white-haired old man to retreat several steps.
"Hu~ Hu~" Chi Yan climbed up again, undergoing a massive transformation, towering over 2.3 meters with two scorching horns growing on his head, his body engulfed in blazing flames.
Chi Yan's eyes lost their clarity, his body now controlled by a demon heart, fully demonized, with greatly enhanced battle power.
In demon form, Chi Yan instinctively wanted to eat the white-haired old man behind him. However, sensing the great threat Lu Yu posed, Chi Yan scanned the demon hunters frozen around him.
Boom~ Chi Yan leapt out, his flames melting an ice sculpture. The demon hunter inside was freed from spiritual control and ice, but before he could rejoice, his body was pierced by Chi Yan's arm.
The flesh on Chi Yan's arm wriggled continuously, devouring all of the demon hunter's flesh under his terrified gaze. Chi Yan's clothes burst completely, his body swelling to three meters, the heat emitted from his flames growing stronger.
After devouring one demon hunter, Chi Yan pounced on another, only to be intercepted mid-air by Lu Yu.
Previously, Lu Yu was curious about Chi Yan's transformation and didn't stop his actions.
Once he understood the change, Lu Yu lost interest and immediately halted Chi Yan's actions, as these demon hunters were desired by Fei Yuqing, and he couldn't let Chi Yan kill them all.
"Roar!" Chi Yan struggled mid-air, bound by Spiritual Power. The flames on his surface surged, as did his strength, but it couldn't shake the Spiritual Power holding him.
Chi Yan's explosion boosted his strength further, and devouring peers enhanced it again. Yet, in front of Lu Yu, he was still just trash. Lu Yu didn't even need to lift a finger to deal with him.
Seeing that even in his frenzied state, Chi Yan was powerless against Lu Yu, the white-haired old man showed a look of helplessness, making a last attempt to control Lu Yu's mind.
Bang! Suddenly, the white-haired man's head exploded, flesh and blood flying, and his headless body fell to the ground.
Lu Yu felt as if bitten by a mosquito and instinctively slapped back, unintentionally causing the white-haired man's head to explode from a Spiritual Power backlash, leaving Lu Yu quite helpless.
He was the only demon hunter on-site who actually died.
Even Chi Yan, already demonized, was not thoroughly dead. His mind was merely disrupted by the old man, losing control over the demon heart within him. If his willpower was strong enough, he could potentially regain control of his body.
The demon hunter consumed by Chi Yan merely fused with him and wasn't truly dead.
"Wee-oo~ Wee-oo~ Wee-oo~"
Officials arrived, surrounding the factory with police cars. A team leader was adjusting a megaphone, preparing to speak.
Fei Yuqing walked in, looked inside, and said, "There's no need, just send people in to clean up the battlefield. All the demon hunters here have been dealt with."
He was a bit bewildered when he received the message from Lu Yu.
From receiving Lu Yu's call to notifying relevant departments to dispatch, even with police cars speeding on the deserted streets of Blue Sea City, they still failed to catch up to the ending.
Lu Yu's speed was simply too fast.
Several officers, wearing specialized protective gear, entered the old factory. Upon reaching the open space, they were stunned by the scene, with lifelike ice sculptures standing across the factory floor.
Oh no, they were actually 'alive' before, just turned into ice sculptures.
After the situation inside was reported, several refrigerated trucks were specially sent over for transporting these unique 'goods.'
Watching the officers moving the ice sculptures, Lu Yu said to Fei Yuqing beside him, "I suggest you break their limbs before transporting them, to avoid any accidents. After all, you're only interested in live ones. Whether they have limbs or not makes no difference."
