Chapter 733: Yousre not Cheng Huaisan! (1/2)
Hearing the voice of a child crying for help, actually, more one child, the group that was about to leave halted in their steps.
Each of them exchanged glances with the person closest to them.
However, not one person made any movements, for this sequence of events was too strange.
Sounds of children crying in a city that was obliterated into ruins right when they were about to leave?
He Jing hesitated a while before turning to Fu Qian, “Fu Qian, several of you stay here while some of us will go over.” Since they ran into this, they should go check things out. Else, if word of their behavior leaked out, it would be detrimental to the Alliance as well as their Vermilion Bird Institute’s reputation.
Fu Qian nodded: “Understood.”
This way, if something did happen, one side could rush back to the Alliance headquarters for reinforcements.
Then, He Jing picked Huang Xiaolong, Liang Guang, and ten other Vermilion Bird Institute elite disciples and flew in the direction of the crying children.
Very soon, He Jing’s group came upon several children that were crying for help. There were three children in total, two boys and a girl. All three seemed around seven to eight years old, their faces dirty from dirt and tear stains.
When the children saw Huang Xiaolong’s group, fear and dread were clear as day in their eyes.
A minuscule frown creased Huang Xiaolong’s eyebrows. He and everyone else vigilantly surveyed the surroundings, but there wasn’t anything odd.
“Elder He, what do we do with these three children?” A Vermilion Bird Institute elite disciple asked.
“Bring them back first.” He Jing answered without hesitation. Nevertheless, there was no way they could just leave the children here.
He Jing then ordered three elite disciples to bring one child each. However, just as they were about to leave the place, one of the elite disciples suddenly fell limply to the ground.
In the next moment, another elite disciple fell.
He Jing was stunned. Before he could think of anything else, his head felt heavy and dizzy.
“This is…?!” He Jing exclaimed but it was barely more than a whisper.
“This is Soul Scattering Powder!” At this time, a cold sneer sounded.
Soul Scattering Powder!
The person who spoke was Liang Guang!
He Jing and the remaining elite disciples were alarmed.
“This is the legendary poison that can scatter one’s soul with a whiff, that Soul Scattering Powder?” He Jing blurted.
Liang Guang smiled, “Spot on! Looks like Elder He is very knowledgeable. Though this Soul Scattering Powder will not take your lives, without an antidote, one whiff is enough to make you fall into slumber for a good few days.”
He Jing’s expression was extremely grim, shouting, “Liang Guang, what do you want to do exactly? Why are you doing this?”
At this point, only an idiot wouldn't be able to deduce that the Soul Scattering Powder was released by Liang Guang.
When Liang Guang heard that question, he burst into laughter. Then, he pointed at Huang Xiaolong, brimming with hatred, “Do you have any idea how I lived through these six years?! Not a single day passed by without me suffering, without pain. Six years, six years! I haven’t touched a single woman in these six years, I’m more dead than alive, and all of this is thanks to your Junior Brother!”
Six years ago, after his lower part was cut off by Huang Xiaolong, he had tried every method he could think off to recover, to make ‘it’ grow again. For someone that couldn’t live a day without women by his side, it was a living hell.
For six years, he hadn’t touched a single woman. It wasn't that he didn’t want to, but without his most crucial part, what was he supposed to do?
Liang Guang’s eyes were burning with hatred and ruthlessness, “If any of you want to blame someone, blame Cheng Huai’an! Don’t worry, I’ll leave all of your corpses intact after you die!”
He Jing’s face tightened, yelling at Liang Guang, “Liang Guang, how dare you be so presumptuous, killing a Vermilion Bird Institute’s Elder and elite disciples? Areyou aware of the consequences?!”
