Chapter 860A – The Opportunity Arrives

Qin Yu’s mind raced and he immediately discarded the plan of escaping. He casually glanced at the bow and arrow in the hands of the white obam and his pupils shrank…this was an extremely terrifying weapon. Even with his Ancient race body he still wouldn’t be able to resist it.

Under the ruthless glares of the guards, the obams in the back kitchen trembled while they neatly arranged themselves. Qin Yu shrank back his head, shaking with fear as he looked at the bronze mirror.

The mirror had a simple design and was covered with strange markings along its surface. Although he didn’t know why it was called the Mirror of Revelation, it wasn’t hard for him to guess its function from the name. It was highly likely that this was a tool the obams used to pierce through the camouflage of the Flesh and Blood Distortion Art.

Thinking of this, Qin Yu’s heart tightened and his heartbeat slowed down. At the same time, within his flesh and blood, a gap slowly appeared. This gap was one of the small changes Qin Yu had made to the Flesh and Blood Distortion Art, using his Ancient race body as the foundation.

And this was also the reason Qin Yu decided not to run away after thinking things over. With this gap in his body, the concealment ability of his Flesh and Blood Distortion was drastically increased.

“Quickly line up. Walk up in front of the Mirror of Revelation one at a time. Don’t even think of trying to get past it!” A guard roared.

The white obam stood in front of the Mirror of Revelation, his cold gaze directed at every obam that approached. His hands were gripped tightly onto the bow and veins bulged on his arms like steel chains hidden underneath his skin. With each breath he took, the air was filled with the scent of blood and danger. It was clear that this was a killer who had gone through a genuine baptism of death and destruction. Qin Yu didn’t doubt that if even the smallest flaw was revealed, he would be slain without hesitation!

One by one, the obams stepped forward. When their reflected images appeared in the Mirror of Revelation, one could see their faces full of dread and fear.

Qin Yu suddenly sensed a pair of eyes on him. He vaguely looked over and met the look of a female obam. His heart sank. It really was her…because of what happened that night, she had already become suspicious.

If she were to report him…a cold sweat formed on Qin Yu’s back!

Soon, the female obam arrived in front of the Mirror of Revelation. The mirror reflected her form without any change.

“Good. Hurry and go. Next!”

After several more obams, it was Qin Yu’s turn. He shivered as he walked in front of the Mirror of Revelation. There was no flaw in his frightened appearance but his heart was actually ice cold. While he was able to use his Ancient body to make some changes to the Flesh and Blood Distortion Art, giving it an even greater concealment ability, he had no idea if this would actually work.

If he was exposed, even if he knew things were likely going to end miserably for himself, he wasn’t going to sit by and do nothing while death came for him. He would instantly erupted with his greatest strength and kill this white obam where he stood! Only by killing him would he have a chance to escape.

Hum –

At this time, the Mirror of Revelation that had been calm and quiet all this time suddenly trembled. Waves began to roll along its smooth surface, gradually turning into a mouth that led to the abyss, as if it would swallow Qin Yu within.

The scene fell deathly silent!

Qin Yu stiffened. At this time, he could feel at least three pairs of eyes lock onto him, each one capable of being a threat to him. And, the white obam that stood in front of the Mirror of Revelation was only one of them. If he tried to resist, he feared he would immediately be attacked where he stood and would suffer heavy losses…but if he didn’t resist, the result would likely be worse.

Taking a breath, beads of sweat formed on Qin Yu’s forehead and his complexion paled.

The white obam lifted his bow and arrow. But at this moment he furrowed his eyebrows, a confused look on his face. This was because the vortex in the Mirror of Revelation had come to a stop, with no further changes to it. It seemed as if it couldn’t determine the true identity of this obam in front of it.

But soon the hesitation in the white obam’s eyes vanished and the bow in his hands erupted with a terrifying a terrifying aura. In his eyes, the obam that Qin Yu had become was only of slightly higher status than a slave. Since there were suspicions about his identity, he might as well kill him off.

“Wait a moment!” A scream broke the white obam’s movements and stopped Qin Yu from erupting with his full strength. A female obam threw herself over and grabbed onto Qin Yu, a pleading look on her face. “Honored lord, I ask that you forgive him so that the child in my belly may see its father after they are born!”

The white obam furrowed his eyebrows. He stared at the female obam. Indeed, he could sense a weak aura of life from her stomach. “Are you sure that he is the father of your child?”

The female obam lifted Qin Yu’s hand. ”Honored lord, these are our blood energy fluctuations. You can sense that they come from the same race and origin. This cannot be wrong!”

A faint blood red light flowed between her fingers.

The white obam relaxed. He coldly said, “Leave.” Since a bloodline had been bred then there was no problem with this obam. Although the human race’s Flesh and Blood Distortion Art was strong, it couldn’t reach the point of fusing bloodlines.

“Thank you my lord, thank you my lord!” The female obam shouted with gratitude. She quickly pulled Qin Yu away.

Two hours later, the white obam left with his guards in tow. And during this time, many tyrannical bursts of strength occurred all around the City Lord Mansion. But these fluctuations of strength only appeared for a brief moment before they vanished.

It was clear that in this rigorous investigation, almost all the humans hidden in the City Lord Mansion had been sniffed out.

“Because of those dirty and damned human cultivators causing a disturbance, the honored City Lord is in an ill mood. So, you must all prepare today’s lunch perfectly and without any mistakes, otherwise all of you will suffer!”

With a loud roar, the obams in the back kitchen quickly turned around and got to work. Qin Yu walked over to a stack of firewood and started to chop them in half. But at this time, even though his expression was calm, his eyes were shaking.

The dark of night arrived. The day of chaos in the City Lord Mansion passed. Qin Yu was resting but his eyes suddenly flew open. After several breaths of time, the sound of footsteps appeared. The female obam approached, her eyes calm as she said, “You already know my identity?”

Qin Yu nodded, “You are a human!”

“Human…it’s been far, far too long since someone mentioned that to me. It’s been so long that I have almost forgotten who I am.” The female obam traced her face with a hoof, “That’s right, I am indeed a human woman.

“I know you are curious how I was able to deceive the Mirror of Revelation and also why I am pregnant.” She paused and continued to say, “The truth is simple. It’s because you aren’t the only one who can alter the Flesh and Blood Distortion Art. As for me, the change I made was an irreversible distortion. After using it, besides my consciousness, I have become a true obam.”

Qin Yu was silent for a moment. Then he said, “Thank you!”

The female obam said, “There is no need to thank me. Just consider this as repaying the favor you did for me before. Although I have no idea why you have entered the City Lord Mansion, let me warn you that you should leave as soon as possible. I can help you one time, but that doesn’t mean I can help you again. Once you are exposed I will also be in grave trouble.”

She nodded and left.

Qin Yu didn’t ask why she performed such an extreme and irreversible Flesh and Blood Distortion Art. But, he knew that it had to be an incomparably sad and despairing story.

…

Qin Yu never thought that he would see Little Zhao again. After she was exposed she managed to escape from the depths of the City Lord Mansion where that terrifying aura had appeared. While she was still in a critically dangerous situation, it was remarkable that she was alive.

There was a large number of humans inside a giant black iron cage. Men were on one side and women were on the other.

In comparison to ordinary slaves, these people were delicate and pretty, and they had also been cleaned up well and wore magnificent robes. If it wasn’t for their horrified expressions and the fact that they were locked up in a cage, it would appear that they were going to participate in some banquet.

Before, it had already been said that to the obams, humans were not just slaves but also an extremely delicious kind of food. In the topmost circles of the obams, they had a habit of tasting human flesh. They called it a Human Feast.

And these beautiful women and handsome men that were brought to the back kitchen in a cage could only be raw materials for food.

And Little Zhao was inside the cage. Although her complexion was pale, this only made her seem more delicate and pretty.

“A week from now, top nobles will be coming to visit Great King City. These humans will become the premier meal of the banquet. You must take good care of them and prepare them for cooking in advance. No mistakes are allowed!” The Steward Dorafi shouted out loud. His head was wrapped in thick bandages and one could still see the bright red colors beneath it. They were scars left behind by that damned human assassin from that day.

He thanked the honored, benevolent, and incomparably powerful City Lord for granting him a life-saving treasure, otherwise his head would have been directly split open and his brain turned to white and red goo.

As Dorafi thought of this, his hatred towards humans only increased. He angrily snorted and swept his eyes over the cage, “Watch them. I want this food to maintain the greatest level of fear and awe towards the great obam race before they die!”

“Yes, lord steward, please rest assured. There will be no problems here.”

In addition to the obams who worked in the back kitchen, a team of guards also stayed behind to watch over the cage of humans. Qin Yu waited four days until he had a chance to communicate with Little Zhao.
