Chapter 38     The village’s incident

Hearing the noise, Xuan Luo instantly felt unease. Xia Luo village was similar to Qian Deng Zhen; they would never partic.i.p.ate or bother with worldly affairs. Xuan Luo has a very bad feeling about this.

Since Xuan Luo felt rushed, he subconsciously unleashed his tai chi steps towards the village. He definitely didn’t realize how fast he was going. However, if others saw him, they would merely see his shadow.

Without intending, he has arrived at Hu Zi’s house. Since Hu Zi’s house was right at the entrance of the village, it was very easy to spot. However, he was immediately overcome by fury.

Hu Zi’s mother’s upper body was covered in blood; she was just lying at the entrance; her eyes were widely open. She was already dead…

“Hu Zi ge! Hu Zi ge!” Xuan Luo felt a sense of dread as he quickly pushed open all the doors. He was shrieking anxiously.

Xuan Luo opened all the doors, but Hu Zi was nowhere to be seen. Xuan Luo then  ran out and knocked on every neighbour’s door. However, there were no one.

But Xuan Luo was sure he heard weapons clas.h.i.+ng. He definitely wasn’t hallucinating.

“Yes! The weapons…” Xuan Luo loudly yelled. Therefore, he used his hearing to find his direction.

In an open s.p.a.ce, Hu Zi was being detained by a big husky guy. The big husky guy held a huge broadsword; his face looked menacing.

All the villagers were standing in the open s.p.a.ce. Their eyes clearly showed fear. It was certainly not an act.

“If you guys do not obey our orders, this will be you!” Suddenly, a rough voice spoke up; his voice was hateful and loud.

Then, that person gave the big husky guy a signal, and the guy swiftly chopped off Hu Zi’s left hand.

“Ah!!!!” Hu Zi cried in pain.

“Even if I become a ghost, I am not going to let you guys get away!” Hu Zi’s eyes were scarlet and his face looked sinister.

Seeing this, all the villagers were shaking; their faces were deathly white. However, no one dared to make a sound. The man leading the group smirked as he looked at the villagers’ reactions. Then, he lifted his hand to signal once more; indicating the broadsword guy to finish Hu Zi off.

Xuan Luo had arrived just in time. Seeing this, he couldn’t help remember the straightforward teenager from years ago. His face darkened and his eyes gleamed.

Each of Xuan Luo’s tai chi steps were filled with the principle of tai chi. Although it hasn’t been fully mastered, it is still considered ‘small success’.

Right when the big guy’s broadsword was about to slaughter Hu Zi, Xuan Luo managed to get to him using his tai chi steps. Without holding back any strength, Xuan Luo punches the broadsword.

The broadsword vibrated a bit, and then, it shattered into pieces.
