12 Chapter 12 First battle with Zong Yu (2/2)

”Xue'er…”

Those thirteen years of memories filled his mind once more. They were childhood sweethearts who shared everything with one another.

Everyone saw him as trash, a bastard, and the humiliation of Gantian Mountain, but only Xue'er did not leave him.

Even if he knew that this was the memory of that dead person, and he had spent less than half a month with this girl, his lips could not help but start to smile.

Usually, he was a little confused and lost. However, every time he looked at her, he would feel warm.

However, just as that smile rose, it became cold with sadness.

They were not fighting, but bullying her. She could barely support her body as she fought solo against six men. Her footsteps were messy, she was on the verge of collapsing. The sword claws on her hands meant that she had little to no way to defend herself.

The remaining people mostly stood at the side and watched, their eyes filled with ridicule. Only Zong Yu, like a cat playing with a mouse, walked around her. Occasionally, he would slash a wound on her body or stab an area. The smile and his face made it seem like he was having a lot of fun.

Moreover, it was like this cat-eared girl did not know the situation she was in. She was obviously finding it really difficult to stand, but she still tried to chase the shadow of Zong Yu.

Only after the wind around the carriage faded and the fluttering stopped did she stand still with despair in her eyes.

Zong Yu was also stunned. He quickly took a few steps back away and looked toward Zong Shou with surprise and delight.

”It is brother Shou! It seems like Xue'er's incantation technique couldn't last for long. Haha! I was still wracking my brains, thinking about how to open up this Wind Wall Charm Formation. I won't kill you today, so why don't you follow me back to Gantian Mountain? With me protecting you, no one will steal your throne. But this Xue'er is not bad; she is really intense. I want you to give her to me!”

Zong Shou didn't bother with him. His expression was full of focus as he looked at Chuxue. Each and every scar and wound was etched into his heart.

He let threads of true qi flow out of his Chakra Meridians and into the Pine Pattern Wind Sword. A the same time, he was thinking about whether killing people in real life was the same as killing people in the game or not.

In the last life, in the game world, there was a person known as the Corpse Smasher. This person loved to play with corpses after killing them, making it hard for people to watch. His notoriety spread far and wide.

At that time, Zong Shou didn't understand and felt confused. However, he felt similar torturing thoughts enter his mind today.

Sword Emperor Tanqiu would have his first battle of this era against this group of scum.

When Zong Yu saw Zong Shou not reply, he thought that Zong Shou was scared silly, and he dissed once more, ”I thought you improved over the years, but you are still so useless!”

Just as Zong Yu was about to tell the people at the side to take him down, Zong Shou suddenly asked, ”Xue'er, are those wounds painful?”

Chuxue's consciousness felt heavy but after she heard that, she immediately shook her head despite her surprise. ”No, but I regret being unable to protect Young Master. It is all my fault…”

Zong Shou's heart felt pained when he heard those words. However, his face revealed a smile, ”That's good. Watch as your Young Master helps you take it out on them! Should I take all their balls down for you to kick?”

Chuxue was not the only one astonished. Ball? Did he mean silk strip balls? Were those kicked? Even the people around them were shocked. Zong Yu was furious and amused, and he mocking, ”Help her take it out on us? You can't even take care of yourself! Brother Shou, are you crazy or stupid?”

He casually waved his hand as the three blue-clothed swordsmen beside him dashed like arrows toward Zong Shou.

Zong Shou frowned slightly. Following which, he took a deep breath and adjusted his body to its optimal condition. His Pine Pattern Wind Sword was pointed forward, and slanted slightly as he held it tight with both hands. The strength hidden in his body suddenly exploded. His right leg kicked off the ground, and he leapt five feet forwards.

In the future game world, he killed people for fun. However, in reality, be it fighting or killing, this was his first time.

However, he had adapted amazingly well to it, and there were no signs of rustiness. It was like there was an ember that was burning in his chest.

In a short few strides, he could already clearly see their faces. The three swordsmen heading over had the special green eyes of a low-class wolf race. At that moment, they were cold, but lacked any fighting intent. In their eyes, they probably did not treat him as an opponent, but a clown that did not know his place.

With a mocking laugh, the Wind Spirit Extra Point in his left chest exploded, and the true qi spread out and coursed into his legs.

”Wind Stepping!”

With his weird-looking steps, Zong Shou's body shone, resulting in afterimages. His entire person had doubled in speed without any prior signs. As he appeared in front of the first person, their faces were right in front of one another. A stunned and terrified expression appeared on his target.

”Charge!”

Without any hesitation, the sword light pierced forward like lightning.

A line of blood along with numerous bone fragments and flesh spurted out crazily from the hole in the man's throat that opened up.
