OH, BAAAAM..!!
"Who Are You..?! Why would.. Why did You Attack Us?!" one of the adult men appeared to point at the young man before him with a sword, his hands trembling somewhat.
He did not know who this intruder was, not even his family members knew the charming young man dressed in white garbed with flowers. They had previously been shaken by the explosion of chaos, then by the news of Gong Zitao's death, and now the presence of this intruder.
"You.. Why are you looking for trouble in our family?! We don't even know you..!" Gong Shui was already scared from seeing the daughter of his sister already dead in such a terrible state, and all this was due to the foreign youth before him.
Xiao Shuxiang tore off a bit of the clothes of the man he had already killed and cleaned up the blood on his hands. He smiled, "You ask me why I came looking for trouble? Are those your last words, huh?"
!!
"GROAN..! Attack her..!!"
Gong Shui could no longer remain silent. Somehow, but the young man before him seemed unwilling to let go of his family just like that.
Six guards attacked Xiao Shuxiang. The Alchemist Chef dodged every attack that came at him easily and then recaptured one of the guard weapons.
!!
He snatched a spear and several steps made him able to stab the back of one of the guards with the spear to penetrate into the heart.
Xiao Shuxiang drew his weapon very slowly without fading the smile on his face. The cries of pain rang out and increasingly made the blood of the Alchemist Chef heat up.
CRAASH..!
Xiao Shuxiang stabbed the head of the guard who attacked him to pieces, he then attacked the others and moved so fast. His steps were without any gaps, not even himself releasing any Qi at all.
"Ran'Er get out of here..! Go with mom and save yourself." Gong Shui touched his wife's cheek gently, he gently rubbed her little baby face before pulling the sword and rushing to help his other brother.
!!
"My husband..! My husband..!" Xiao Ran cried, he heavily abandoned Gong Shui-but for the sake of his young son.. He must save himself.
She invites her mother and sister-in-law to find a safe place. Their ears heard the sound of the sword clashing, the sound of slashing, and the cry of pain.
Aaaakhs..!
Hu Li, who was still sitting on the tree, closed his eyes because he could not see. Xiao Shuxiang mercilessly slashed down the arms of a young master of the Gong family, then slashed both of his legs, only after that pierced the chest, and the latter slashed his neck until the young man's head fell down and rolled on the ground.
Baaam..!
"Well..!"
Xiao Ran and Gong Shimei shouted as a head was thrown and hit a wall near them. The two with trembling bodies started to turn around backwards.
!!
In the middle of the night, there was a sight of a white-clothed figure with his hands clutching the neck of a female servant and the next second there was the sound of a bone crack.
Gong Shui and Gong Yuhao were severely injured, they could not get up and had already vomited blood twice. The women in the Gong family were so frightened that it was even now hard to step away.
Gong Yuhao made a trembling voice, "You.. Who the hell are you..?"
"The bringer of your death." Xiao Shuxiang flicked his finger and about 24 Moving Mirrors appeared in the territory of the 'Gong' family residence'.
!!
The Alchemist Chef seemed to intend to solve everything in an instant. He did not even give a reason why he had come to suddenly attack this family.
Perhaps Xiao Shuxiang wanted the Gong family to die of curiosity. He was quite happy to be able to see those helpless faces, it felt exhilarating to see them being oppressed.
"Stop..!"
!?
Xiao Shuxiang gasped as a woman carrying a baby ran over to her husband. He was crying and his face was terrified.
"Ran'Eer..! Why are you still here?! Go then..! I told you to go..!" Gong Shui spewed blood. He hugged his wife and son who were crying, trying to protect the person he loved so much.
Xiao Ran did not know how she had the courage to run towards her husband. He fearfully looked at the young man before him and spoke with all his might.
"Young Master.. My family's.. Please forgive my family for offending you. Please let us go.."
"Ran 'Er.. Go awayl. Please leave.."
"How can I leave you, my husband..?"
!!
Xiao Shuxiang was breathing slowly, he saw how sincere these two married couples were. It seemed to remind him of his White Cat who always stood in front and protected him.
"A beautiful view. Too bad tonight I have no heart" Xiao Shuxiang said coldly. He flicked his finger which attack after attack came out from within his Moving Mirror like a glowing arrow.
!!
OH, BAAAAM..!!
Many buildings were destroyed, as well as the loud thumping sound, the ground even shook, a loud scream was heard and the wind was blowing away a lot of dust.
Hu Li firmly gripped the branch of the tree until his hand was injured, he bit his lips as he could only see how cruel his Young Master was.
Xiao Shuxiang himself was still standing where he was. But slowly his smile faded when he felt something familiar. He heard the sound of the baby crying and his eyes were rounded when he realized that someone was standing upright in the dust.
!?
The figure when viewed from below has an authoritative posture. His red, white clothes seemed to be choppy and his hair was being waved by the wind.
A long ribbon was visible on his forehead and the figure had a firm look in the eyes with a charming face. Not far from where she was, there was still another figure protecting the female members in the 'Gong' family - a bamboo stick was in her right hand.
!!
The dust slowly faded and made Xiao Shuxiang even more convinced that the figure before him was none other than his own good friend, Lan Guan Zhi.
"Bother," Xiao Shuxiang explained, he was already moving faster and it turned out that Lan Guan Zhi could still catch up to him at a very good time.
"Shuxiang, what are you doing?" Lan Guan Zhi pulled back the seal that protected the 'Gong' family members behind him.
"Shuxiang..! You are so outrageous..! What the fuck are you doing this..?!" The Mad Beggar Boy exclaimed, it was fortunate that his kiss was so sharp that he was able to smell Xiao Shuxiang's scent when the young man was nowhere to be found in the Sky Pagoda Sect.
The Crazy Beggar Boy's cheeks looked flushed, this was due to drinking too much wine. Even so, he could still protect the existing 'Gong' family members by using his Inner Force.
"You guys came at an inopportune time," Xiao Shuxiang did not answer the question of the Mad Beggar Boy or his good friend. "So move. There's still something I need to finish,"
Lan Guan Zhi took a step forward and grabbed Xiao Shuxiang's arm, he looked at his friend's face and started to make a sound. "Don't do this, they're completely innocent of you."
"But Gong Zitao is guilty of me."
"Young Master Gong is gone,"
"I didn't kill him, Lan'Er."
!
Lan Guan Zhi flinched, the look in his eyes changed. "Is it for that reason that you took your revenge on them?"
"This is not revenge. I'm just upset that Gong Zitao didn't die at my hands."
"Shuxiang, you're wrong. You better stop."
"No way,"
"HEY..!" The Mad Beggar Boy rebuked, "Stop your debate. Shuxiang..! You listen to Lan'Er Gege and don't continue with your actions."
!!
Xiao Shuxiang stared at the Crazy Beggar Boy. The bamboo stick man advised him to stop whatever he was going to do. Hu Li himself did not come to help, he only watched them from afar.
The Crazy Beggar Boy walked up to his Lan'Er Gege who was still holding onto Xiao Shuxiang's arm. He then circulated his gaze and actually saw a lot of damage just because it was attacked by the Mirror of Transference - even the surviving 'Gong' family was not up to ten people.
Many buildings were badly damaged, even the cattle and servants inside the buildings no longer had lives. The Mad Beggar Boy was sure that Xiao Shuxiang had not been up to ten minutes into the fight and the impact of the young man's attack was no joke.
"Gong Zitao has been rewarded for his mistake, Shuxiang. Those who don't understand anything - why should you kill him? You don't act like this, son. Let them go,"
The Mad Beggar Boy touched Xiao Shuxiang's shoulder and made the young man look at him. He reminded that this good friend of Lan'Er Gege of his could show a little pity.
".. They are just ordinary people, Shuxiang. There's no need to go this way to vent your anger on someone who's obviously already accepted the consequences of his mistake."
"Take me off" Xiao Shuxiang's voice flat.
He then stared at the three members of the 'Gong' family, one of whom was a woman with a baby in her arms. "Miss, I really don't want to explain this. But the reason why you all have to die is because of Gong Zitao. Blame him for what you're going through."
!!
Although the swordsman before them looked so young, yet in just a short time-the residence of those who stood firm was completely out of shape.
None of them were trying to ask, most likely because fear had already made them difficult to utter a word. It was just that the Crazy Beggar Boy had unreservedly told the matter that made Xiao Shuxiang able to mess up here.
!!
The Mad Beggar Boy told about the betrayal Gong Zitao had committed to the Sky Pagoda Sect, the crime of that young man joining the Blood Scarlet, and his behavior so daring to kidnap Ling Qing Zhu.
Hearing the Mad Beggar Boy's story made Xiao Ran, Gong Yuhao, and Gong Shui shocked. They did not expect Gong Zitao to be able to do such a thing, let alone betray his own college.
More than that - even though Gong Zitao made a mistake, they shouldn't have been the target of an impingement. They knew nothing, nor had they ever helped Gong Zitao in any of his evil plans. They didn't even know Gong Zitao had such a nature.
"Master.." Xiao Ran's voice trembled.
"No need to talk." Xiao Shuxiang said softly, "I've already gotten annoyed with you guys. Lan'Er, let me go and let me finish this as soon as I can get home."
"Xiang'Er," Lan Guan Zhi held the hand of her good friend and shook her head meaningfully. He did not want Xiao Shuxiang to become like this.
".. That's enough, you've already made calculations with them. Let's go back," Lan Guan Zhi's voice was soft, yet contained disappointment in it. He certainly does not want his best friend to hurt innocent people.
Xiao Shuxiang exhaled softly, "Alright.. Since you asked, I will not take them all away. But I want the 'Gong' clan to no longer be heard in the Middle Continent and they have to leave this city."
!!
Gong Yuhao swallowed blood, if his son-Gong Zitao was here. He was eager to ask in a loud voice, 'Why Did You Make This Person Your Enemy?! He's Absolutely Cruel And Has No Heart..!'
"How is Mr Gong? I don't like your clan. In the future, I will break the necks of all those who have the 'Gong' clan'. You have the choice of changing your clan to stay alive or die right now."
!!
Gong Shui vomited blood and pressed down on his chest, he looked at his father who immediately nodded in fear. Gong Yuhao promised it to Xiao Shuxiang.
He promised at this time also no longer to wear the surname, though by such measures - they could be considered traitors.
But really, Gong Yuhao had no choice. She does not know how many of her family members are still alive, and she still has grandchildren. The handsome yet cruel young man seemed unwilling to let them go, truly those eyes had no pity.
".. Our.. We promise, Sir. Please forgive us.."
"…"
Xiao Shuxiang was completely unaffected. The more he saw these ordinary people crying.. The more itchy his hands wanted to finish them all off.
Lan Guan Zhi noticed it and held firmly to his good friend's hand, "Please promise you won't kill them, Shuxiang."
"…"
"Shuxiang, let's say." Crazy Beggar Boy urges. If Xiao Shuxiang had not promised, then the 'Gong' family was still threatened.
He and his Lan'Er Gege knew that Xiao Shuxiang was a cultivator who never lied. So if he promises and then denies it, then this is a lie.
"Shuxiang, please,"
"alright. I promise I won't kill them. Now let's go home," Xiao Shuxiang stared exasperatedly at Lan Guan Zhi.
He then took out two grains of Dragon Breath Pills and handed them to the Mad Beggar Boy. The bamboo stick man immediately gave it to Gong Yuhao and Gong Shui because these two people were seriously injured.
Lan Guan Zhi pulled his good friend's hand and walked away, he was overtaken by the Mad Beggar Boy. The three left the 'Gong' family residence with Hu Li watching.
The white-haired youth who was still sitting on the branch of the tree watched everything. He stared at the Gong Zitao residence that was completely badly damaged in just an instant. He started to stand up and was about to catch up with the three young men when a voice rang out in his ear.
"Hu Li, do you hear me."
!?
"Young Master Xiao?" Hu Li frowned, the voice sounded cold.
"Listen, Hu Li. Finish what I couldn't finish earlier."
!!
Hu Li was like hearing a loud bang inside his chest. He stood stiff with wide eyes, "You mean.. But, didn't you already promise Young Master Lan not to kill them?"
"Yes, I promised. But I didn't promise Lan'Er that I shouldn't give you orders. Now implement. Don't let them live, including that little baby."
!!
"Young Master Xiao, you sinned once.." Hu Li broke out in a cold sweat, he again gulped when he heard the sound of his Young Master laughing.
"Ha ha ha, there's no need to talk to me about sin. This was the result for those who made Xiao Shuxiang his enemy. And ah! If you need to, you'll kill three nearby towns and kill everyone surnamed 'Gong'. On other occasions, I will also go hunting with you."
!!
Hu Li exhaled a heavy breath when he heard it. He shook his head slowly while leaning back for a moment.
"…"
Although Hu Li's facial expression was bad, it quickly turned cold. She was a White Fox Demonic Beast who had a face like a young man of about 17 years old, too sweet and beautiful. It looks innocent and it is impossible to dare to commit murder.
Merely, this fact was often forgotten by those closest to Xiao Shuxiang, even the possibility of Lan Guan Zhi and the Mad Beggar Boy himself.
Hu Li had long followed Xiao Shuxiang, even every massacre his Young Master had committed in the past - he had also taken part. So if Xiao Shuxiang felt his hands frequently itching as a result of rarely killing, then that was also the case for Hu Li.
"My Young Master Xiao has changed a little. He is now beginning to listen to others, but still - his principles will not be eliminated.. It was truly a 'Young Master'.." Hu Li's eyes changed, his lips drawn into a thin smile.
Hu Li had an ability that could make people like Lan Guan Zhi and the Mad Beggar Boy unaware of his existence. This was an Innate Demonic Beast talent that did not even need the manpower to bring it out-O Zhan and Lan Xiao had this talent.
!!
That night the sky was filled with countless stars. Young children are often told a story that when a person dies, his soul will rise to the sky and turn into a star.
Perhaps this is just an essay so that the little boy is not lonely and feels that despite having lost someone meaningful in his life - he will not be alone.
And now.. The stars in the sky are probably growing at this time. A new residence for a tiny baby and his family who had burned down by the fox fire belonged to Hu Li.
Far away elsewhere, Xiao Shuxiang smiled as he looked up at the sky. He was in front of a bridge with Lan Guan Zhi and the Crazy Beggar Boy. "I love starry skies, they're amazingly beautiful.."
Crazy Beggar Boy, "You've said it four times, aren't you bored?"
"I never get tired of looking at the starry sky. You know, most people are busy looking for happiness in their lives without knowing that they've found it a long time ago.." Xiao Shuxiang used his gaze to point to the sky.
"…"
Lan Guan Zhi only briefly looked up before she set her eyes to look at her good friend's face. Xiao Shuxiang had a clean, charming face, and clearly looked like he was not a bad person.
Until now he still does not know how the true nature of this good friend. He had always felt familiar with Xiao Shuxiang, but upon seeing his friend kill-he seemed to not know him. And now.. Her best friend is back.
"Lan Zhi's.. Since you looked at me, what's going on?" Xiao Shuxiang was aware that he was in the middle of a stare. He turned his head towards his good friend, Lan Guan Zhi appeared silent for a moment before starting to speak.
"Mn, there's a star in your eye."
Lan Guan Zhi's words were gentle, yet it sounded like thunderous roars in the ears of Xiao Shuxiang and the Mad Beggar Boy. The faces of the two people changed, even the Mad Beggar Boy who heard him choked on his own breath.
"Mn, I won again."
"Lan Zhi's..! You have no talent for jokes..! You're dangerous..!" Xiao Shuxiang came to a realization and was completely goosebumps over it.
"Lan'Er Gege's.. You almost made me turn." The Mad Beggar Boy felt that his cheeks were as red as tomatoes, even though Lan Guan Zhi's words just now were not intended for him.
He slowly turned his head towards Xiao Shuxiang. The young man had a pale face, but his ears were red. To people like them, Lan Guan Zhi's words just now were like a deadly blow. It felt unexpected that a figure like her Lan'Er Gege who was so serious had a sense of humor.
Honestly speaking, Lan Guan Zhi blurted out the word without any sense at all, his intention was only joking. But it was unexpected that the reaction of these two young men was quite horrendous.
Xiao Shuxiang felt his legs limp, "Aiih.. My blood pressure. I haven't heard your bad humor in a long time.. Aiya.."
Lan Guan Zhi, "You need a carry?"
Xiao Shuxiang, "No! Don't say it and never do it. Son, you have no talent for jokes."
Mad Beggar Boy, "Lan'Er Gege, this time I agree with Shuxiang."
"Mrs,"
Lan Guan Zhi truly obtained a landslide victory. Slowly he looked up at the sky and exhaled a proud breath.
Most likely after tonight, Xiao Shuxiang would think twice before looking at the stars again. And as for the Mad Beggar Boy, he would also not be able to forget it - directly himself being a witness to the trauma of the Alchemist Chef.
