Chapter 272 1 (1/2)
Early Divine Transformation Realm, Wind Mist Finger!
Zhihe stayed at the Ning Family’s house and Ning Qian accompanied her in the room.
Outside the house, Ning Fan was sitting slantingly on the back of a black ox while holding a willow whip in his hands. His gaze was calm and tranquil.
His physical body might look weak and thin, but his presence made the black ox not dare to show any resistance nor frustration towards him.
Having the royal bloodline of Fu Li had made every demon to evade him. The black ox which was not even a demon naturally would not dare to provoke Ning Fan.
Carpenter Wang knew about his daughter’s decision. After letting out a few sighs, he gave up the intention of stopping her.
However, the Wu’s family seemed to have sent quite a lot of ruffians and rascals from the local county town to the Ning Village with the intention of causing trouble to the village in a large group.
Most of them carried weapons and they surrounded the bamboo fence that encircled the Ning Family’s house. They even had someone carry fire torches and claimed that if the Nings does not release Zhihe, they would then set the house on fire.
“Hehe, if you still do not release the person we want, we will deal with you using the hard way… I heard that this Ning Fan’s mother, Ning Qian was once a peerless beauty of this village. Although her age has exceeded 30, her charm still remains. The Lord wants Zhihe so we dare not lay a finger on her. But for this Ning Qian…hehe”
Each and every one of the ruffians was unruly in nature.
Nevertheless, they did not know that they were nothing in front of Ning Fan who was truly a lawless person.
Every insult they spat made Ning Fan’s gaze become colder. At the moment when his eyes shone with cold-piercing light, he charged forward with the black ox and wielded the willow whip in his hand!
The shadow of a whip being wielded was cast over the ground, but it seemed to be divided into hundreds of shadows in an instance, whipping on the bodies of the gang of scoundrels at the same time.
It was clearly a whip made of willow and yet, the pain inflicted on one’s body by it was more intense as compared to an iron bar!
*Ah!*
The ruffians’ screams of agony reverberated to the whole village. making all the livestock in the village make noise and cry out of that sudden surprise!
Ning Fan did not kill any person… For the past eight years, for the past 96 months, he was living a dull and harmonious life just to cultivate the heart to ask for the Dao. If he kills someone and allows bloodshed to influence his mind, his heart of asking for the Dao would shatter due to his intent to kill. He then could no longer stay in this illusory realm.
The time to spend with his mum would then come to an end...
Moreover, Ning Qian is just a mortal female in this mirage. If she sees me killing people, will she fear me afterwards…
“In order to stay with my mother for a few more days, I’ll spare your inconsequential lives for now… Interesting. It’s really beyond my expectation that there will be a day when I, Ning Fan will choose not to kill someone! However, even if I don’t kill you, I want you all to feel fear and remorse!”
Ning Fan’s gaze fell on the scoundrel who assailed his mother with obscenities just now and his eyes flashed with absolute ferocity.
With a flick of his finger, he crushed the willow whip splitting the leaves from its body. Each of them turned into green, razor-sharp blades and pierced right through their mouths and cut off their tongues!
*Ah!*
Every ruffian felt excruciating pain as if it was drilling into their hearts. Moreover, none of them was able to utter a single word anymore because every single one of them had become mute, losing their ability to speak after having their tongues cut!
All the ruffian looked at Ning Fan’s direction in unison afterwards and confoundedly prostrated themselves on the ground before Ning Fan. The technique that Ning Fan used to cut their tongues using only the willow leaves had made them be stricken with fear!
It’s a demonic technique! This Ning Fan isn’t a person! He is a demon!
No! We must not provoke him... even if we have a thousand guts! How can we, the humans fight a demon monster like him?!
Moreover, every single member among the gang of ruffians had never seen any demon who could kill someone using just willow leaves before despite living for countless years.
Even if there were some little demons that occasionally appeared in the rural county, they could at most possess one’s spirit, create some minor disturbance in the residence or just cause one to feel uneasy to sleep or eat.
Those who could act outrageously and kill people at his whim must be a competent expert with powerful means!
Unfortunately, even though they had known the secret about Ning Fan being a “demon”, they would not be daring enough to spread the news even if their ability to speak still remains.
The gang of men quickly ran away and went back to the country town as if their lives depended on it. Seven days later, at the Wu’s House in the eastern county, Wu Dongnan’s expression was seething with anger when he looked at 47 ruffians who was personally kept by him had their tongues cut off!
“What happened?! Weren’t you guys supposed to rob the bride? Why did all of you end up losing your tongues? Who is so audacious to offend me, Wu Dongnan in the land of the eastern county!”
Each and every one of the ruffians was completely terrified by Ning Fan’s demonic technique. The only ruffian among the gang who knew how to write a few words managed to write nine words on a piece of paper with much effort.
