113 Li Lians First Kill (1/2)

The water was calm, the air was chilly, and there was a subtle mist eerily building up over the lake.

Since nothing happened for a while, Li Lian eventually opened her eyes.

Xiao Fang was pleased to see that she finally built up the courage to do it. So he stopped massaging her scalp then he let her raise her head off his lap.

”How do you feel?” He asked.

She turned her head to look him in the eye, then with a soft tone she said,

”I'm ready.”

Xiao Fang smiled.

”Good.”

[ Reaper's Grasp ]

Suddenly, several figures appeared to be jumping out of the water when, in fact, they were being pulled.

The 12 men screamed, but it sounded as if they were shouting their battle cries.

[ No Sword Style: Divine Sword Cutting Air ]

Xiao Fang whipped his arms in both directions, creating two crescent blades of Sword qi that cut everything it touched within a 10 meter radius.

The screams abruptly stopped and it was followed by the sounds of human chucks splashing into the lake.

The blood from the mutilated corpses polluted the water, making the reflection of the moon and stars appear blood-red. The thick stench of blood was nauseating, and it made Li Lian feel as if she were living a nightmare.

Suddenly a strange energy seemed to be escaping their dead bodies and it entered Xiao Fang's. When he felt it flowing into his dantian, the curse marks quickly began to fade.

Despite not being able to see the mysterious energy, Li Lian could see the effects it was having on his body. There were no physical changes, but there was something about him that made him seem as if heavy shackles had been finally removed from his body.

Xiao Fang wanted to laugh out loud. All this time, the curse mark made him feel as if he was dragging heavy weights around, but now that the marks were gone he felt as if he could finally breathe again.

The rower stopped rowing the boat. He was paralyzed in fear. He eventually fell on his butt, which reminded Li Lian that he was still alive.

She thought that Xiao Fang had spared his life because he had nothing to do with it. However, in the next moment, he was also starting to be pulled towards Xiao Fang with [ Reaper's Grasp ].

He desperately tried to hold on to something, clawing at the boat till his nails peeled off. His screams were so horrifying and desperate, but Xiao Fang didn't stop pulling him closer. Li Lian wanted to cover her ears, but she braved through it.

The man was no longer being pulled. Xiao Fang had walked around him then pulled him up by his hair to put him on his knees.

”Xiao Fang, what are you-”

”Kill him,” Xiao Fang suddenly said.

”Xiao Fang, do you notice anything different about me?” Xiao Hei said while looking up at him with her cute round eyes.

Laying on the bed, Xun Wei rolled her eyes when she heard Xiao Hei bragging about what she got from Song Du's spatial pouch. She made it seem as if it were some sort of treasure when it just looked like an ordinary accessory.

Xiao Fang reached down to Xiao Hei's neck to feel the thin black fabric wrapped around her neck.

”What is it?”

”It's a choker.”

Despite seeming harmless, it was actually a sex tool used to choke women during intercourse to heighten the experience.

This was the first time Xiao Fang was hearing about a sex tool because it didn't exist in this country, or at least it was extremely hard to come by. Even from the country Xiao Hei was from, the weakest of tools like the collar she wore around her neck were accessible to commoners, while the medium grade, and high grade stuff were only accessible to the most wealthy of individuals.

The more she explained it to Xiao Fang the more interested he got. Although the choker were pretty weak sex tools, it was something only someone from a major family could get their hands on in this country.

...

As the two of them discussed more about sexual toys, Xun Wei was in bed slowly falling asleep, but then she suddenly felt someone hugging her from behind.

”Li Lian? What's wrong,” she said as she turned her body around to face her.

”Xiao Fang... he made me kill someone today.”

”...”

”Who did you kill?”

Li Lian sighed.

”That's the thing, I didn't know anything about him. He didn't do anything to us, but I killed him anyway.”

”Oof, that's tough. Now that you brought it up... I also killed someone today.”

Li Lian raised her head as if she finally found someone she could relate with.

”You seem to be handling it pretty well. Who was it?”

”Do you know Song Du?”
