Chapter 755 - Does Not Work (2/2)
The Duck Emperor continued, “For example, you want to go to the Holy land of the Light Clan to rescue your wife. Fate has already determined the result. No matter what you do, you cannot change that result.”
“Fate has written it?”
Xiao Luo laughed sarcastically and said, “Where there is a will, there is a way. That is what I believe. When your faith is strong, there is nothing you cannot achieve.”
“You just do not get it. Well, forget about it then. Bury those two now, or the bodies will stink if exposed to the air for too long,” advised the Duck Emperor. He could not persuade Xiao Luo and promptly changed the subject.
At that moment, a few people ran out of the forest, holding hoes in hand. It was Liang Xinghua’s deputy and two guards of the Liang family.
The deputy came over respectfully. He said to Xiao Luo, “Brother, let us help you bury them.”
Without waiting for Xiao Luo’s response, he waved at those two guards to signal them to dig. Then all three of them dug.
“Are they not from the Liang family of the Stan City? We saw them earlier. Why are they here helping you bury the little girl?” whispered the Duck Emperor to Xiao Luo. He looked confused.
“Their intentions are so obvious. Can you not see it? You are absolutely a duck. Although you are good at speaking our language, you don’t know how to think the human way,” Xiao Luo said scornfully.
“Shoot!” cursed the Duck Emperor as the feathers on his head stood on ends.
The voluntary labor was certainly helpful and the deputy and his two guards did their job very well. It only took two hours to bury the little girl and her mother.
The tomb was a small heap of earth, with white flowers on it. As for the tombstone, it was a piece of marble the men had brought along from Stan City. They found out the names of the mother and daughter and carved their names on the tombstone with a sword.
“Brother, what do you think? Is there any change you want to make?” asked the deputy. He sought Xiao Luo’s opinion about the tomb. He was sweating heavily because of the physical task.
Xiao Luo did not answer him. Instead, he asked the deputy, “What’s your name?”
The unexpected question threw the deputy off slightly. Then he answered honestly, “My name is Liang Kuan.”
Liang Kuan?
Xiao Luo raised an eyebrow because the name sounded familiar. He watched many TV series and movies about Huang Feihong, who had an apprentice called Liang Kuan.
“Go back with this message for your Lord. Tell him to stop wasting his time on me. I will not be staying in Stan City for a long time. I will leave soon. Do not make a wrong move,” said Xiao Luo.
Liang Kuan gave a bitter smile. He wished he could go back to report what Xiao Luo had said to his Lord. But if he went back with that message, he knew he could no longer stay with the Liang family.
He grinned and replied, “Brother, this incident happened in the Stan City. The Liang family has both the obligation and the responsibility to come forward to do something for the folks. The Song family has been bullying these people here for a long time. There were many complaints. Now, you have eliminated the Song family and got rid of evil in our city, and in doing so, you have also been a great help to the Liang family. The Song family was our enemy. The deaths of the little girl and her mother were unjustified, and they deserved a proper burial. Brother, if we allowed you to do that on your own, then the Liang family would be thoughtless.”
Xiao Luo said, “You are good at sweet-talking, but it does not work on me!”
His body slowly lifted into the air as he spoke. In the end, Xiao Luo was standing in mid-air like a god.
Martial Emperor?
The two guards of the Liang family dropped to the ground out of fear. Liang Kuan stared at Xiao Luo, hardly able to believe what he was seeing. It was true he had suspected that Xiao Luo was a Martial Emperor. But it was quite a novel experience to confirm it with his own eyes. Xiao Luo had achieved the level of a Martial Emperor at twenty-five or twenty-six years old. It was incredible.
