Chapter 8: Life and death hang in the balance, decided in a single thought.
this moment,
In Su Nan's sight, the two German Shepherds disappeared, replaced by two dark red life energies, clearly visible to him, like two leaping flames.
in the dark,
Su Nan had an incredibly clear feeling that, if he were willing,
The moment he has a thought, these two wisps of life energy will extinguish instantly and disappear completely from this world.
This is a kind of absolute control that a higher-dimensional life form has over a lower-dimensional life form, where life and death are decided in a single thought.
With a thought, Su Nan released a wisp of divine power, pressing down on the German Shepherd charging at the front on the left.
In an instant, it felt as if an invisible giant hammer had slammed down on the German Shepherd's head.
His forward momentum came to an abrupt halt. His front legs buckled, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his whole body trembling violently. He excreted urine and feces, and a foul stench instantly filled the air.
His head was pressed tightly to the ground, and a mournful wail came from his throat, as if he had seen a majestic god as tall as a mountain, and dared not move an inch.
As for the German Shepherd on the right, it continued to charge towards the southern Jiangsu region.
Su Nan's eyes widened for a moment, then with a thought, he gently pinched and stroked the pulsating dark red life energy at the level of consciousness.
There were no unusual celestial phenomena, and no sound.
Next second,
The German Shepherd, which was floating in mid-air, froze instantly, its eyes wide open, and then plummeted straight down from the air, crashing onto the hard concrete ground with a "thud".
His limbs twitched only twice before he fell completely silent.
Life was cut off, and he died on the spot.
The entire intersection was eerily quiet; you could hear a pin drop.
The passersby were stunned, their mouths agape as they stared at the scene before them, their faces filled with disbelief.
"This, this, this..."
"What just happened?"
"How is that possible!"
Just moments ago, the two rabid dogs were ferocious and looked like they wanted to eat people. One was so scared that it defecated and urinated, and lay on the ground, too afraid to move. The other died on the spot.
But the boy in front of me didn't even raise his hand. He just stood there, doing nothing, not even moving his feet. How could that be?
The old man was also stunned; the smugness and arrogance on his face vanished without a trace.
He first looked at the dead dog on the ground, then at the German Shepherd lying on the ground, covered in excrement and urine.
His aged eyes widened like copper bells, and he remained stunned for a good ten seconds before suddenly realizing what had happened.
He pointed at Su Nan, his face flushed and neck bulging, and roared, "You, you killed my dog! Pay up or I'll fight you to the death!"
He didn't know exactly what had happened, but he had a habit of blaming others, and regardless of the facts, he would first define the guilt and whoever shouted first was right.
He shouted as he charged toward Su Nan.
Su Nan raised her eyelids and glanced at him, her third eye between her brows shifting slightly, and a faint divine pressure descended upon the old man.
The old man's steps came to an abrupt halt. His body went limp, and he fell to the ground with a thud, landing face-first in the dirt. His face was deathly pale, and his whole body was trembling like a leaf.
"People like this are a menace to society."
Su Nan murmured softly, instantly extinguishing half of the old man's vitality.
He will face severe angina and only a few days left to live.
"It's more important to get down to business."
Su Nan stopped looking at him, withdrew her gaze, and walked towards the Chu family villa.
However, after these experiments, Su Nan roughly figured out the capabilities of this third eye.
Previously, facing the river and sea, there was a devastating physical force that could instantly evaporate the river water and penetrate reinforced concrete.
Secondly, there is the divine power that surveys all things from a distance of more than ten kilometers, ignoring tall buildings and skyscrapers.
Then there was the strange calamity on Chu Yahan's body, which was the suppressive power of a majestic god, the natural nemesis of evil.
Finally, the treatment applied to the dog was an absolute erasure at the level of its life.
With only 10% completeness, it has so many incredible abilities. How powerful would a complete third eye be?
As expected of a product of the Heavenly Dao, and as expected of the innate divine power of Erlang Shen, the True Lord of Guanjiangkou and the Heavenly Court's God of Justice, it is unparalleled in the Three Realms and has no equal. It is indeed not just talk.
"These life energies vary in strength and intensity, and some are bright while others are dim."
As Su Nan continued forward, the figures of everyone around him transformed into energy and were displayed before him.
And if he so desires, with just a thought, he can extinguish these life energies instantly, erasing them completely from this world.
This feeling is both strange and terrifying, like a god standing high above the heavens, looking down at the ants on the ground, with life and death in complete control.
Is this the power of the gods? Is this the power of Erlang Shen, the God of Justice of the Three Realms? A faint smile appeared on Su Nan's lips, and a burning light flashed in his eyes.
And speaking of which,
at the same time,
the other side,
The pink room on the second floor of the Chu family villa, usually filled with girlish charm, was in complete chaos.
As Su Nan withdrew his gaze, the magnificent divine power emanating from the strange creature that suppressed calamities vanished without a trace.
Chu Yahan, who was cowering and trembling like a quail just a moment ago, began to struggle violently once again.
A pair of jet-black eyes, devoid of any white, stared intently at the monk before him and at Chu Yingxiong. The deep darkness within them conveyed a desire to kill them all.
The abbot and the eighteen monks tried several times to replicate their previous two successes, but to no avail.
It was as if those two previous successful cases had never happened.
The entrance to the Chu family villa in the wealthy district.
Six police cars were parked at the entrance, with yellow police tape, and ten police officers were guarding the entrance.
The leader was a policewoman in her twenties, dressed in a police uniform, looking heroic and alert as she looked at Su Nan in front of her.
She stopped Su Nan as soon as he arrived.
"Student, this is a restricted area. Do not approach. Please leave immediately."
This beautiful policewoman with long legs spoke in a serious tone, leaving no room for argument.
Su Nan raised his eyelids and glanced at her, his third eye, hidden beneath his brow, twitched slightly.
In an instant, the policewoman's figure transformed into a ball of life energy in his vision.
Lively.
It was clearly presented to the people of southern Jiangsu.
But if Su Nan wanted to, he could wither or even completely annihilate this vibrant energy cluster in the blink of an eye.
This sense of absolute control that higher-dimensional beings have over lower-dimensional beings swept over us once again, carrying with it a cold, indifferent disregard from the gods for mortals.
Something doesn't feel right.
If we keep measuring a living person by their energy form!
Wouldn't that mean I'd treat human life like dirt from now on?!
It is said that Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs.
Su Nan deeply understood this feeling at that moment.
"..."
Su Nan gently shook her head, shaking off the feeling.
He didn't want to target ordinary people, much less abuse this power.
He looked at the policewoman and said calmly, "I was invited by Mr. Chu Yingxiong to deal with the Chu family's affairs. Please inform them."
"Forehead……"
The policewoman paused for a moment, looked Su Nan up and down, and her suspicion deepened.
The boy in front of him looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a blue and white high school uniform. His face still had the naivety of a young man. He didn't look like a capable person invited by Mr. Chu Yingxiong to assist him at all. He looked more like a high school student who had skipped class to play.
"You said you were invited by Mr. Chu?"
The woman frowned and continued, "Do you have any proof?"
"Yes, he invited me here. I don't have any credentials, so you can just let him know."
Su Nan shook his head and said slowly.
