Invisible Security Guard-Chapter 2251 - 2270: Snow Demon Possession

Yusuf Zuck dared not move, his heart in his throat, because the opponent had wiped out all thirty-two people, including a master of the Eternal Life Ninth Layer. Any slight movement might provoke a lethal strike from the foe.

Only after the couple had left and vanished did Yusuf settle his nerves, waiting for about half an hour before he suddenly flicked his sleeve, turned around, and directly entered the Door of the Other Shore. In the next second, he appeared in the small tavern, sitting across from Ayden Acme.

"What happened? Why do you look so bad?" Ayden Acme asked in surprise.

"Damn, I saw the snow demon." Yusuf downed a mouthful of liquor fiercely and said, "A male and a female, slaughtering thirty-two people, including a master of the Eternal Life Ninth Layer. Earlier, in this tavern, there were thirty-two hunters, not a single one came back!"

Ayden Acme gasped: "I told you, the snow demon should not be provoked!"

"Indeed, they should not be provoked, and they are coming back... Oh no, they’ve returned." As Yusuf said this, he winked at Ayden Acme and whispered a reminder: "Keep quiet, keep quiet, pretend you know nothing."

Ayden Acme was utterly astonished.

At this moment, the inn’s curtain was lifted, and the couple, braving the wind and snow, walked into the tavern.

"Huh? Big brother and sister, weren’t you sleeping in the back? Why are you coming back from outside?" Yusuf feigned surprise and asked.

"Hehe, there’s a door in the backyard leading to the back mountain. We went to take a look. But who is this brother?" The man walked over, looking Ayden Acme up and down.

"He’s my brother, arrived a bit later than I did. When you two went to sleep in the backyard, he had just come."

"Hmm?" The man raised his eyebrows.

Yusuf’s heart skipped a beat, for the man had earlier said he saw someone drinking in the room from outside, yet it might have been Ayden Acme’s shadow, not his own.

And there was only one shadow, but Yusuf claimed Ayden Acme had arrived long ago, thus arousing the man’s suspicion.

"You mean, when we went to the backyard, your friend here arrived?" The woman came over to ask.

"Yes, yes." Yusuf could only keep up the lie, nodding repeatedly.

"Did you two go out just now?" The woman asked again, glancing at her husband.

"No, but... does going out to pee count?" Yusuf retorted.

"That doesn’t count, alright. You keep drinking." The couple nodded and asked no more questions, perhaps assuming they went out to relieve themselves. It was a coincidence, for if they had entered the mountain as well, they couldn’t have returned faster than the couple.

The couple said nothing more, returning to the back courtyard, leaving Ayden Acme watching Yusuf in surprise, transmitting his voice: "This couple running the tavern is suspicious?"

"Snow demons!" Yusuf transmitted back.

"What?" Upon hearing Yusuf’s words, Ayden Acme’s face turned pale.

"Quickly leave, this place isn’t safe to linger." Ayden Acme transmitted urgently.

"No need to rush, they fear the fire of karma." Yusuf shook his head.

"How do you know?" Ayden Acme asked curiously.

"They said it themselves earlier. When the man was killing, he said besides the fire of karma, there’s no other method to kill them!"

"Still, be careful, it’s a shady place!" Ayden Acme urged anxiously.

"I actually have some thoughts on the two of them!"

"You want to collect monsters? No way, it’s too dangerous, and such ominous creatures, why would you collect them?"

"You’re right, collecting them is useless. Better avoid the trouble. Let’s drink, and leave when it’s dawn, alright?" Yusuf laughed.

"Alright, the snow demons have transformed into humans; what ancient demons could be that terrifying? Don’t get any ideas."

"Understood, understood." Yusuf nodded repeatedly. Two snow demons transformed into humans must have incredibly deep attainment, so even if he had the fire of karma, he feared he couldn’t capture them easily.

...

Meanwhile, in the back courtyard, the woman was sitting cross-legged while the man stood in the room, looking towards the direction of the hostel’s room.

A moment later, the woman asked: "What did they say?"

"Communicating with Divine Consciousness, they didn’t speak."

"I suggest we kill them all," the woman said coldly, "Better to kill wrongly than let one escape. If we’re exposed, we truly can’t protect that treasure. Damn humans!"

"I fear causing a disturbance and alarming the neighbors," the man sighed, "these hunters are endless. Today we killed thirty-two, tomorrow another forty-two or fifty-two will come. When will it stop?"

"That treasure will reach Mahayana in eighteen days. Just bear with it; you go to the front and start, I’ll keep watch outside. The two of them have low cultivation levels, it’ll be over in a flash."

"Alright." The man nodded, then strode towards the front yard, as the woman’s figure flashed and disappeared immediately.

Yusuf and Ayden Acme heard the sound of doors opening and closing, so they immediately became alert.

It was merely ten seconds, the man walked in from the back door, smiling, holding a bottle of wine.

"Esteemed guests, here’s a bottle of family-aged wine, fragrant and strong. Drinking alone in the back is boring, how about the three of us together?"

"Sure, sure." Yusuf laughed heartily: "With wine, we are friends. Come, come." Yusuf chuckled, standing up, closely watching the man, but there was no murderous intent from him.

Yusuf didn’t relax his guard, for he had seen the couple killing before, entering directly into one’s body, absorbing everything in a second, slaughtering instantly.

Thus, how could he dare to be careless?

Ayden Acme was also very tense, silently cursing Yusuf, knowing the other party were snow demons, yet not hurrying to run.

Having read and seen a lot, Ayden Acme knew more about the snow demons than most. The understanding of this species was merely superficial and they were only known through legends.

He also stood up, afraid that the snow demons might suddenly strike.

Alas, the fear turned real; as they were being polite, the man suddenly flashed a gleam in his eye, then in an instant transformed into radiance and drilled into Yusuf’s crown.

Indeed, his movement was exceedingly fast, almost before Yusuf and Ayden Acme could react, he had already entered Yusuf’s crown.

It seemed Yusuf’s physical body couldn’t stop him, entering as if it was effortless.

He chose Yusuf because his cultivation level was Eternal Life Third Level, while Ayden Acme was at Eternal Life First Level.

To him, roaming inside Yusuf was merely a matter of seconds, and perhaps before the other realized it, he could emerge from Yusuf’s body and proceed to absorb the next target.

Ayden Acme screamed, instinctively retreating, chanting seals and forming barriers, wrapping himself layer upon layer into a cocoon.

Yusuf, meanwhile, was trembling all over. In that instant, his whole body felt icy cold, losing all sensation!
