Yao Jun brought Guo Luo and headed towards the mansion at the center of the town. The people of the town had already run away in fear, searching for a place where they could hide until everything ended.

As they were walking, Yao Jun looked around, inspecting the town around him. Most of the buildings were in bad condition, looking ready to fall apart at a moments notice. Putting his Qi into his eyes, he could peer into the buildings and look at the people inside.

Most of the people he saw were dressed in rags, their skin pale and sickly, their homes lacking in both food, medicine, and cloth. Their eyes were dull and lifeless, they had clearly already accepted their fate. Yao Jun also saw more corpses in the alleys and in some of the empty houses.

He couldn't help but shake his head, this town was not just dead, it was already rotting and festering. The people were too scared to even think about leaving or revolting, all they could think about was how to survive another day.

Yao Jun moved his eyes away from the town around him and focused on the mansion at the center of the city. He focused all his Qi into his eyes, inspecting not just the inside of the mansion, but also everyone inside the mansion.

When Yao Jun started inspecting the inside of the mansion, the people in the mansion felt a chill run down their spine, feeling like all their secrets had been seen through. While the people felt a chill go down their spine, Yao Jun felt sickened.

There were several people in the mansion currently engaging in sexual acts, some seemed to willingly partake in these acts, while some seemed unwilling. The youngest girl Yao Jun could see looked like she was no older than 10. her eyes were dull and lifeless as the old man on top of her was going at her with his all.

At the corner of the room stood three people, one of them was a man clad in the same silk clothing as the two young men that Yao Jun had just killed, while the two others were a man and a woman, both clad in rags. The man and the woman shared some similarities with the little girl, so they were most likely her parents.

But the thing that sickened Yao Jun was that the two people were currently greedily counting some coins that the man clad in silk clothing was giving them. Just from what he could see, it was clear that these two people had sold their own daughter to the people of the mansion.

Yao Jun felt the flames of rage burning within him grow larger as he kept looking at the actions of the people in the mansion, but as the flames reached their peak, Yao Jun felt his mind grow calmer, the fires of rage quickly turning ice cold.

Yao Jun stopped looking at what the people of the mansion were doing, and instead started inspecting the people themselves. The first thing he inspected was their cultivation level. Now that he had calmed down and was inspecting a smaller area, he saw more than when he inspected the entire town.

The highest cultivation level he saw was one old man at the middle stage of the 1st Mortal Earth. The old man was clad in a luxurious, blue silk robe decorated with golden strings that formed the image of a roaring tiger. The old man was currently checking the entire mansion, so it was clear that he knew that he was being spied upon.

The rest of the people in the mansion were not people that Yao Jun considered a threat, not even having reached the 1st Mortal Earth. He found one person that was of slight interest to him, it was the old man currently having sex with the little girl.

The reason this person was of slight interest was because his body had very little Qi in it, but while he had nearly no Qi in his body, he had a decent amount of Mental Energy. This meant that this old man was probably someone with a power that focused on the same type of illusions as the ones Yao Jun used.

Yao Jun knew about two types of powers that focused on illusions. The first type was the one he used, which focused on using Mental Energy to implant images and orders directly into the mind of other people. These illusions could be ignored if a person had a high enough mental fortitude or was stronger than the user.

The second type was the type that Guo Luo used, which mixed Qi and Mental Energy. The mixture of Qi and Mental Energy would create lifelike images and sounds, even being able to reproduce their smell, but they were still only illusions, so they could not harm people or interact with the world around them. These images looked real, no matter how strong a person was, but were harder to use as they required the user to know when and how to use them efficiently.

When Yao Jun finished inspecting everyone inside the mansion, he and Guo Luo were already at the entrance to the mansion. The entrance was a magnificent, golden arch, two thick wooden doors, taller than three men and wider than two, blocking anyone from entering.

Standing outside the gate, Yao Jun's mind had already turned completely calm, without a single ripple, his face completely still, not letting anyone know what he was thinking. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Guo Luo next to him.

In truth, he felt that he was being very unfair to Guo Luo right now, he had taken her away from her home and her clan. Originally, Yao Jun had just planned on finding a way to return to Golden Moon Town, return to his parents. Guo Luo could follow him while he was doing this as there would not be much danger.

But now he had changed his way of thinking, just returning was no longer enough, he wanted to create a world where his parents and friends could live in peace, even if he was no longer around. Yao Jun knew that he would kill a lot of people in the future, he would also make a lot of powerful enemies. He felt that forcing Guo Luo to follow him on this path was unfair and wrong.

"I'm not going to lie to you. In the future, I will end up killing a lot of people, which in turn will make me a lot of enemies. You can still turn back. I will kill the people in this mansion, once I have done so, I can give you enough money so that you can find yourself a nice place to live in peace."

Yao Jun looked at Guo Luo as he spoke. After killing the people he needed to kill in this mansion, he was planning on taking some of the wealth that was inside this mansion. If Guo Luo chose to rather live a life of peace, he would give her most of the wealth in the mansion so that she could find a nice place to live.

"But if you choose to enter this gate after me, there will no longer be any going back. People will know that you are helping me, and they will hunt you just like they will hunt me. I cannot give you a peaceful life."

Yao Jun turned his head away from Guo Luo and looked at the gate ahead of him. This gate was not just Guo Luo's last chance, it was also his. He knew that he could still turn back, he could leave this city and just focus on returning home. Once he passed through this gate and dyed his hands with the blood of the people inside, there would no longer be a way back for him.

"What are you even saying at this point? Even if you decided to push me away at this point, I would just chase after you. I no longer have anyone else to rely on, so I don't want to lose you as well, being lonely hurts."

Guo Luo did not hesitate, she reached out and gave Yao Jun's hand a hard squeeze as she spoke. She could no longer return to the Guo clan, if she did, she would either get killed immediately or forced to live a life worse than death, even worse than her previous life there.

If she lost Yao Jun now, she would truly be completely alone. But being alone was lonely, and she had gotten enough of loneliness when she was still living in the Guo clan. Since it was like that, there was no way she was letting Yao Jun go, even if he tried to push her away.

"Very well. Since that is how you feel, then for as long as you choose to rely on me, I will rely on you in turn."

Hearing her response, Yao Jun gave a bright smile and squeezed her hand back. After he finished speaking, a light flashed from his chest, Little Thunder and Sirius appearing next to him.

Yao Jun did not need to speak. The moment Little Thunder showed up, it let loose a loud roar and charged forwards. It's body clad in lightning, it crashed into the gate of the mansion, completely shattering the door. Yao Jun let go of Guo Luo's hand and they both stepped forward, passing through the gate and into the mansion.
