XIAO SHUXIANG'S

30 - TakTik [Revised]

Gong Ru was so disappointed by the bitter reality she saw. Why must there be a foreign object hanging between the thighs of this beautiful child? Why does this child have to be male? What kind of fate is this?!

"You broke my heart. Brother, kill this boy..." Gong Ru bowed lethargicly, she then walked limp away from Xiao Shuxiang.

Gong Ru then stood beside Yang Shu, she wanted to watch her sister kill the child who had made her heart hurt.

Yang Shu was so shocked upon hearing that his grandson, Xiao Shuxiang wanted to be killed. He was eager to help his grandson, but his entire body was too trembling to move.

Especially when Gong Ru touched his shoulder while giving off a hint of murderous aura, Yang Shu realized that if he helped his granddaughter-then the three children lying unconscious on the ground would die.

Xiao Shuxiang was also somewhat jolted when he heard Gong Ru's remark, yet there was not the slightest sense of fear visible on his face. "Want to kill me, Xiao Shuxiang? Huh! It's not that easy."

Gong Peng smiled widely as Gong Ru told him to kill this beautiful little boy. "Hey... Nak. You need to know that I don't like boys because their voices aren't as sweet as girls. I only kill boys with one slash because they are boring. But if the daughter... I will torture him slowly while listening to their screams. But I thought I'd make an exception for you. I'm gonna torture you the same way I torture girls. It's because you've made my brother's heart hurt..." Gong Peng gave a big smile back, he then gripped the collar of the sweet boy.

"......" Xiao Shuxiang himself blinked. Inwardly he felt astonished by this brawny man gripping his collar. Why would Gong Peng have to explain such a thing to her? If you want to hit, yeah... Just cut it down. Why make an exception for him. Is not this the same as...

"Mh... This big muscular fellow seemed to be less intelligent. I know you two are great. But killing a kid like me, huh! Isn't that cowardly?" Xiao Shuxiang leisurely spoke as he gazed towards Gong Peng and Gong Ru.

One tactic when dealing with danger is to stay calm and never look scared in the least.

Being arrogant in front of a stronger opponent is also a tactic. It makes the opponent feel, we have some kind of secret to defeat him, so the opponent will become doubtful and alert.

To Xiao Shuxiang? faced with such a danger did not make his guts shrink at all, even though at this time he could be said to be very weak.

And as for Xiao Shuxiang's haughty attitude? It has been there since his first life. Even his arrogance was already like a stream of blood flowing within his body.

"What did you say, little boy? A coward? Ha ha ha ha!" Gong Peng laughed when he heard Xiao Shuxiang say, "It's really good. I was amazed that you dared to look at me without feeling the slightest trepidation."

Gong Ru, "I'm also amazed at him. All this time, no one had ever been able to speak that surf when they found out we were the Brothers Robbers. Both adults and young children will be frightened, crying, and begging with their bodies and trembling voices to be allowed to live. You have a brave student, dear bad luck to meet us."

Gong Peng started to stop his laughter, he now smiled widely while slowly sticking his greatsword right on Xiao Shuxiang's left cheek, intending to slice it slowly.

"Little boy." Gong Peng's voice softly. "Let me see the look on the face of a frightened seven-year-old boy. Let's show it to me,"

It was not the frightened face of the little boy that Gong Peng saw, but rather a cynical smile.

"You...?!" Gong Peng gasped, even though the life of this boy could be said to be in his hands. Why didn't this boy show a frightened face at all? Moreover, showing a face full of crying, is there something wrong with the nerves of this child?

Gong Ru who saw Xiao Shuxiang then laughed. "Ha ha ha, that's great! You're a really brave kid, I admire you!"

He walked up to Gong Peng and told his sister to release the clutches of his sister's hands from the child's collar.

Xiao Shuxiang tidied his clothes and also tightened his hair tie so casually. He then looked at Gong Ru and Gong Peng with his innocent face.

Gong Ru crouched down in front of Xiao Shuxiang, "Hey, son? Aren't you afraid of this muscular man...? "Aren't you afraid that the great sword will cut off your hand and neck?"

"Compared to fear, I feel more pity and disappointment with your actions. Behind your famous name, you committed the murder of a child in this cowardly manner without letting him fight. Haaah..a very unfortunate..." Xiao Shuxiang sighed softly while shaking his head.

Gong Peng who heard him laughed so loudly, Gong Ru herself was seen giggling when she heard the words of the seven-year-old boy in front of her.

"What kind of resistance can a child do, huh? They will only put up a futile fight..." Gong Ru laughed at Xiao Shuxiang.

Hearing the words of the man before him Xiao Shuxiang exhaled softly and again shook his head, his actions left Gong Ru astonished.

Xiao Shuxiang, "Your thoughts are too shallow for a robber with such a famous name..."

Xiao Shuxiang, "The resistance of a child like me is indeed just a waste. It is impossible for me to defeat a grown man, let alone a man with a burly and muscular body like him. But that's the interesting part! Make a child try hard to defend his life, then wait until he is desperate and then laugh at his futile efforts... Isn't it much more comforting than hearing her screams?! That's what notorious criminals are supposed to do, not like you."

The facial expressions of Gong Ru and Gong Peng changed slightly. They were unaware of Xiao Shuxiang's true intentions.

With these two robbers listening to his chatter just now, then it was the same that they had invited death for themselves.

As criminals, Gong Ru and Gong Peng killed Xiao Shuxiang without listening. What effect did this innocent face of the little boy have, to the point that they forgot their original purpose of robbing and killing?

"No, they both underestimated me. To belittle this seven-year-old boy, to belittle.. Xiao Shuxiang!"

Yang Shu also heard Xiao Shuxiang sayings. He was quite shocked when his grandson said such a thing.

This was just like his favorite grandson telling the true oppressors and assassinations to these two Brother Robbers. Moreover, this way was even more cruel than directly killing by beheading.

"Haoist... I hope this isn't your teaching.." Yang Shu considered that it was his son who taught his grandson.

Gong Ru stroked her chin, she thought about what Xiao Shuxiang said. Gong Peng was also seen thinking about this child's words, he indeed felt that he needed other entertainment besides cutting the children's bodies small without letting them fight back.

The merchants who witnessed Gong Ru and Gong Peng talking to the little boy, did not dare to move in the slightest let alone try to escape. They were not sure they would survive even if they ran as hard as they could, they preferred to wait while hoping that someone could help them.

Xiao Shuxiang just kept talking and issued his opinion to these two robbers in front of him. "... Don't be mad, well, but I don't think you're one of the dreaded robbers yet, even if you're both great."

Gong Ru was bearded, she then smiled as she looked at Xiao Shuxiang. "So you mean, I should give you a chance to defend yourself? Ha ha ha, but you're too weak, son! You won't be able to entertain me at all."

Xiao Shuxiang, "But is there a child as brave as I was before? I don't know if it'll entertain you or not, but this big guy... I want to fight him."

"You...? and My sister...? Ha ha ha ha!" Gong Ru felt that this little boy was not sane, to the point of wanting to fight with his sister, Gong Peng.

"Hey, Son...? Aren't you wrong to choose my sister as your opponent, huh?"

"Your sister grabbed me by the collar first, not you. That's why I want to fight him! Wh why? Can't it?"

There was a tinge of ridicule from Xiao Shuxiang's manner of speaking, as if telling Gong Ru that Gong Ru was afraid that her sister was going against Xiao Shuxiang, whose incident was just a boy.

"Little boy? I am a cultivator, I know the level of your practice that has not even reached Forging Qi level one... You too!"

Gong Ru then stood up, "Alright, to appreciate your courage then I will grant your request. Brother, you fight this boy, make his body split into twenty parts. I want to see a piece of how this kid can't breathe anymore." Gong Ru smirked towards Xiao Shuxiang, but the boy only put on an ordinary face.

Gong Peng laughed, "Of course, Big Brother."

He then walked forward, the place where the corpse of the horse as well as the body pieces of the swordsman and the merchant he killed were located.

Gong Peng, "Little boy. Pull your sword and come to me. Let me show you the scariest dream ever,"

Xiao Shuxiang nodded, he then pulled the sword tucked in his left waist. He had not taken a step yet, Gong Ru suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, is that your sword?" Gong Ru was slightly jolted when she saw Xiao Shuxiang's sword that was so old and worn out, even the tip of the sword was gone.

Xiao Shuxiang nodded in response to Gong Ru's question. He was also quite astonished when Gong Ru suddenly just stopped him. "Is there something wrong with this sword?".
