A minute ago.

Xukong had finally felt the barrier surrounding the mysterious ring disappear. He had been trying to contact Lin Mu's mind but was unsuccessful as the shield surrounding it was still present, but now that his spirit sense could leave the ring he could at least observe what was happening outside.

As soon as Xukong's spirit sense left the ring he saw the Town head's skull getting crushed in Lin Mu's hand. He was surprised by this sudden development. But not because Lin Mu had killed someone, instead because of how quickly and effortlessly he had done it.

Xukong then saw the expression on Lin Mu's face and the condition of his body. The malevolent smile on his face, accompanied by the blood-shot eyes and the strained veins, only made him think of one thing.

"Demonic Might! He's actually able to replicate the innate ability of the demon race." Xukong exclaimed.

'Is this the new ability that he received from the ring? Is that why there was the aura of the Demonic path in the ring?' Xukong wondered.

There were many more questions that were popping up in his mind, questions to which he could not find the answers to right now. But that was the least of his concerns. Xukong knew about the ability 'Demonic Might' and knew the side effects that came with it.

'Will he be able to bear them… No. He doesn't have enough spirit qi to even reach that point. He should be exhausted anytime now.' Xukong thought.

Xukong next saw Han Lei revealing his secret and taking Lu Xiao hostage. He then saw Lin Mu blink and appear behind him, swiftly killing him.

'This is a little strange. His senses should have become dull after using the ability, but they seem to be normal still. Is this ability not Demonic Might?' Xukong wondered.

Lin Mu was standing over the dead body of Han Lei and the now unconscious Lu Xiao. Evidently, the entire ordeal had been extremely intense for Lu Xiao, and he had fainted due to the shock.

Lin Mu pulled out the short sword that was still stuck in Han Lei's skull and splattered more blood on the floor. Even though he had killed both the people in the room, he still did not feel satisfied. He wanted more.
