[System Tracking]
After the bloody massacre at the mine, Lin Ye's thirst for revenge had been somewhat quenched, but his worry for Old Wang had not subsided in the slightest. Old Wang’s whereabouts remained a mystery, and Lin Ye’s heart was filled with anxiety and unease. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing someone so dear to him.
Lin Ye decided to make use of the system’s powers to attempt to track Old Wang’s scent. He knew that only with more efficient methods could he follow the trail to find him. Entering the system interface, Lin Ye discovered a new feature: “Demonic Power Perception” — a skill that allowed him to track the scent of a target using evolution points.
“Consume 100 evolution points, do you wish to proceed with tracking the target’s scent?” the system’s prompt echoed in his mind.
Without hesitation, Lin Ye selected “Yes.” He needed to find Old Wang as quickly as possible; any delay could mean losing the chance forever.
[Clue Found]
With the system activated, Lin Ye's perception expanded rapidly. A faint ripple of energy appeared in his consciousness. It was the familiar energy of Old Wang, though most of it had dissipated, Lin Ye could still detect traces of it. The system’s information showed that Old Wang’s energy trail extended westward from the mine.
Lin Ye didn’t hesitate. He spread his dragon wings, the powerful gust of air generated by his movements tearing through the atmosphere, and he shot toward the direction indicated by the system. His mind was a whirlwind of anxiety and fury, each flap of his wings carrying an unstoppable force, as though he wanted to clear every obstacle in his path.
[Unexpected Encounter]
As Lin Ye followed the scent trail through dense forests and over mountains, he suddenly sensed a strong demonic energy fluctuation ahead. He swiftly descended, concealing himself among the surrounding trees.
What he saw before him caused his heart to skip a beat — a group of weak demonic creatures were being hunted by a well-trained squad of human warriors. The demonic creatures were clearly powerless to resist the might of these skilled warriors, and they were being slaughtered one by one. Blood soaked the earth as the demons fell, their eyes filled with fear and despair, a sight that was almost unbearable to witness.
Lin Ye watched as the demons fell, their weak energy pulses barely noticeable, yet he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sympathy. These demonic creatures, though small and defenseless, were still part of his kin. Perhaps helping them would not only alleviate some of the anger burning within him but also gain him potential allies for the future.
He weighed his options. If he intervened, it could earn him the gratitude of these demonic creatures, potentially adding to his strength in the long run. However, taking action would also draw attention from these formidable human warriors, possibly leading to more trouble than it was worth.
