Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

The black night.

The chaotic city.

The smell of gunpowder in the air intertwined with the stench of Demonic Qi.

The occasional explosions and chaotic Energy Waves added some sound and color to the night scene...

Like a completely disordered symphony.

This is India, a country that could perhaps be described as magical.

Standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the Noida Hotel, Wen Yu felt no homesickness, nor any heartfelt emotion. But indeed, the moon in India is a bit rounder than that in Cathay’s northeast.

”So this is what they mean by the moon abroad is rounder than at home.”

Wen Yu chuckled self-deprecatingly and then drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

”I like it here, chaos everywhere and wars all around, and war means harvest.”

A pair of slightly rough small hands gently encircled Wen Yu’s waist, then one moved up, the other downward.

Seduction.

Temptation.

And the gradually igniting passion.

”If you like it, stay a while longer.”

The burning body and the gentle voice added a touch of brilliance to this ordinary night.

Wen Yu just smiled, not saying anything more.

The earlier words went unfinished—war is everywhere, but Wen Yu does not like crowds.

Crowds mean more things, complexity, unpredictability. And there are too many people in India.

How does that saying go?

The more people you interact with, the more you like dogs!

Wen Yu hates trouble, hates complicated matters.

Without delving deeper into the topic, Wen Yu put down his glass and turned to look at the naked female mercenary behind him.

Her milky white skin was slightly rough but relatively clean, and her figure was undeniable, her looks not common, her age was youthful and pretty, and without her combat gear, she was quite a passable partner.

”That’s why I like it here!”

Wen Yu’s smile grew wider.

This time, it seemed much more sincere.

...

”I like it here.”

The sea, the beach, the clean moonlight, and the quiet environment.

This small island near the waters of Singapore, without human interference, preserved the natural landscape to its greatest extent, and although life is mostly inconvenient, the scenery is indeed beautiful.

Who wouldn’t like such a beautiful scene, right?

”After I retire, I think I should buy this small island, fish here, swim, enjoy life, just like you now.”

”Maybe by then, we could become neighbors, go fishing at sea every day, and have bonfire parties at night, eh. What do you think, Qin Tian?”

”I think it’s nice.”

A dry response, perfunctory, dubious, and even with a trace of imperceptible fear.

A month without meeting, the man before him had become stronger!

An already bottomless strength now turned into a vast ocean, making Qin Tian feel anxious just standing beside him.

So, Qin Tian chose his words carefully: ”Then, could you tell me why you’re looking for me, Tang Haofei?”

Tang Haofei’s lips curled into a smile, seeming quite pleased with Qin Tian’s caution at the moment.

With his right arm around Qin Tian’s shoulder, as if being very familiar friends, however, their relationship was not exactly ”friendly.”

Qin Tian flinched almost invisibly, but the strength on his shoulder was unimaginably strong, making Qin Tian’s movement seem like a helpless struggle.

Tang Haofei’s expression remained unchanged.

”I’m here this time to ask you for a favor.”

The strength on the shoulder increased a bit more, and this increment felt like a mountain for Qin Tian, pressing so hard his breathing became rapid, and even his scapula emitted an unbearable ”creaking” sound.

”What’s it about? If I can help, I’ll definitely help!”

Faced with an irresistible force, Qin Tian’s choice surprised no one.

Tang Haofei eased his grip slightly.

”I want to form an organization, and now, I’m officially inviting you to become a member of this organization.”

Thoughts whirled swiftly, but in a short time, only one path emerged.

So…

”Alright!”

Qin Tian nodded.

Seeing this, Tang Haofei laughed and took an invitation from the space ring, solemnly handing it to Qin Tian.

”In a month, at the Indian border, see you there. Oh, don’t forget to bring Arthur along.”

After speaking, the figure disappeared, as if Tang Haofei never appeared at all.

...

”Phew.”

Exhaling a deep breath, Qin Tian, dressed in sportswear, opened the invitation with a face full of bitterness.

The four big words ”Ultimate Force” faintly exuded an enthralling luster under the dim moonlight.

Below it read: ”January 23, 2018, the first internal meeting of the Ultimate Force Team, participants—Sequence Number 1, Tang Haofei (Captain). Sequence Number 2, Wen Yu (Vice Captain), Sequence Number 3, Walter. Sequence Number 4, Qin Tian. Sequence Number 5, Kasu, Sequence Number 7, Qin Min. Sequence Number 10, Vincent…”

A whole heap of the most powerful experts of the Human Race was captured by the Ultimate Force Team in one fell swoop!

Looking again at the time and place on it, the bitterness at the corners of Qin Tian’s mouth grew darker.

He thought, after the Sea King control plan, he could escape from the big, muddy swamp outside, but who would’ve thought…

”Qin Tian? Qin Tian?”

The distant shout came from afar, and Qin Tian put away the invitation, turning his head towards the direction of the voice.

There, a blond, blue-eyed burly man, carrying a giant two-handed sword, was coming all the way toward him.

”I’m here!”

Qin Tian waved to Arthur in the distance.

But suddenly, a line from a movie popped into his mind.

In the Jianghu, one cannot help themselves...

As Sequence Number 4, as one of the top combat powers of the Human Race, how could he be so easily forgotten by others?

”Finally found you, Yuanyuan said you disappeared inexplicably, afraid something happened to you, so...”

Arthur’s face was earnest, but when mentioning Qin Shiyuan, there was always a faint, barely noticeable smile at the corner of his mouth.

A man in love is probably like this…

Thinking of his sister, Qin Tian smiled and shook his head.

”Nothing, in this desolate place, what could happen to me.”

”Well, let’s go home, don’t keep Yuanyuan waiting.”

”Speaking of which, I caught a big fish in the sea today, enough for us to have a good meal.”

”And the mutated plants Yuanyuan grew, they finally sprouted today, Yuanyuan also said she wanted you to see them...”

Beautiful.

Leisurely.

Important people and comfortable daily life.

The simple conversations between them revealed a daily life that, in the apocalypse, seemed even more precious.

Yet, in the apocalypse, how could one possibly find true peace and tranquility?
