Chapter 752 - Song Tianba
Chapter 752: Song Tianba
“Goddamn jerk! I will not have the nerve to do anything in front of you in the future. You cut him like cutting a cabbage. That was too cruel!”
The Duck Emperor’s small body was shaking. He always saw Xiao Luo as having a low-key personality and it was a total surprise that Xiao Luo had such a heartless and cruel side to him. His propensity to kill seemed to be natural. Everyone freaked out! Or perhaps it was the duck that freaked out.
“You do not think I should have killed them?”
Xiao Luo found a cart and put the bodies of the little girl and her mother onto it. He also had a daughter, Su Xiaobei. Maybe that was why Xiao Luo lost his temper after seeing the little girl killed. He was going to push the cart out of the city to make a grave for them.
“You should kill them. Of course, kill those bad people. I was just a little emotional. Ignore what I said,” said the Duck Emperor reassuringly.
Xiao Luo did not respond and continued to push the cart toward the west.
Suddenly, a group of guards in armor showed up in front of him. A man, about fifty years old, came out from behind them. Half of his hair was white. In a silk robe, he had a natural air of authority. When they saw the ground full of bodies, that man and the other guards turned pale.
“Is that another bast*rd from the Song family?” whispered the Duck Emperor as he raised his head to look at Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo said nothing. Instead, he looked expressionlessly at the middle-aged man who stood in front of the group.
“It looks like someone from another prominent family, the Liang family!”
“Yes, yes, yes. These people are indeed from the Liang family. The man standing in front is the head of the Liang family, Liang Xinghua.”
“The Liang family and the Song family have always been at loggerheads. There is a long history of rivalry between them. Could it be that the head of the Liang family is here to recruit that young man?”
The common folk who were watching from the surrounding vicinity started chatting in low voices. The public favored the Liang family, for their members were not as arrogant and despotic as those from the Song family. Song Feiyu was such a person, and he was a hedonistic son who treated the common folk like dirt.
The middle-aged man who led the newly arrived group of guards walked up to Xiao Luo and greeted him with a slight bow. “Young man, my name is Liang Xinghua. I am the head of the Liang family in Stan City. May I ask if you were the one who killed the Song family’s Young Master and these guards?” he asked.
“Yes.”
Xiao Luo admitted it with no hesitation and asked, “Is there anything wrong?”
Hiss…
After they heard the confirmation, the guards from the Liang family could not help but gasp. When they looked around the entire street, they could not find a single complete corpse. There were only bits and pieces of human body parts lying all over the place, and it was a gruesome and bloody sight.
Liang Xinghua gave an involuntary shudder and quickly replied, “No… Nothing…”
“Since there’s nothing wrong, then make way!” Xiao Luo pushed the cart and continued walking toward the west side of the city.
When the Liang family’s guards saw Xiao Luo making his way toward them, they immediately moved aside to open up a path for him to walk through.
Liang Xinghua looked at Xiao Luo’s back and felt a chill in his heart. He looked at his assistant beside him and whispered, “The Song family has suffered a massive setback this time. The encounter with such a ruthless person has caused Old Ghost Song to lose his only son. I am afraid he will go crazy when he hears the news. Send out my orders later. Temporarily hold the battle with the Song family. Old Ghost Song is a fierce tiger, and we should avoid any confrontation with him for now. I fear he will be irrational.”
“Yes, Master!” the assistant answered and nodded respectfully.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Suddenly, several figures dashed over at great speed from a distance. They were all wearing green robes and brandished swords and sharp spears in their hands. Their intent to kill was apparent to anyone who watched them arrive.
Master Song and several senior elders of the Song Family had finally come!
Liang Xinghua’s expression changed slightly, and he immediately went forward to greet a middle-aged man among them. Liang Xinghua put on a solemn face and said, “Brother Song, you are here.”
“Liang Xinghua, stop talking f*cking nonsense! Get lost!”
The Master of the Song family, Song Tianba, shouted angrily at Liang Xinghua. He scanned the surrounding, then his gaze fixed to a spot, and immediately, his expression changed. He rushed forward and kneeled on the ground. In great sorrow, he picked up Song Feiyu’s headless corpse and screamed in anguish. “Feiyu, Feiyu!”
The roar was a mixture of grief and anger.
“Tianba…”
The Song Family elders found Song Feiyu’s head but could not find his arms amongst the mutilated corpses.
WOOSH!
When Song Tianba saw his son’s head, a violent wave of energy surged from his body and unleashed a powerful force that swept across the street like a hurricane.
“Who did the hell this? Who killed my son? Show yourself now!”
Song Tianba screamed his lungs out. The sound waves he emitted were like rolling thunder, and everyone standing around the area covered their ears instantly. Song Tianba’s red eyes glared at Liang Xinghua, and in the next moment, he sped toward Liang Xinghua like a bolt of lightning. With gritted teeth and a burning gaze, he clutched Laing Xinghua by the collar and asked, “Liang Xinghua, was it you? Did you kill my son, Feiyu?”
Liang Xinghua was secretly overjoyed. The Song family had always suppressed the Liang family. It surprised him when he heard that someone had killed Song Tianba’s only son. Liang Xinghua put on a sorrowful, sympathetic expression and answered, “How could it be me? I heard that there was a murder here, so I hurriedly rushed over. I just arrived.”
Although Song Tianba was furious, he knew Liang Xinghua could not have done it. Liang Xinghua did not have the guts to fall out with the Song family.
“Master, the murderer who killed Young Master is over there!”
At that moment, one of the Song family servants pointed at Xiao Luo, who was pushing the cart a hundred meters away.
“I’ll take his life!”
Song Tianba released Liang Xinghua from his grasp. Then he instantly turned into a bluish shadow and moved with lightning speed to chase after Xiao Luo. Song Tianba had an overwhelming desire to kill his son’s murderer. Losing his only son had caused such a fit of intense anger that it consumed his mind. All he could think of was the evil, torturous ways he would deal with the man who had killed his son. He would start by tearing the person into pieces.
“Master, that young man has signed his death warrant. Song Tianba is already one step into the Martial Lord realm. No matter how talented the young chap is, he is only at the Martial Spirit realm. Song Tianba can easily kill him,” Liang Xinghua’s assistant whispered, worrying for Xiao Luo.
Liang Xinghua chuckled and said, “What does his death have to do with us? However, since he killed Song’s only son. After he dies, I’ll find a good place to bury his body as a gesture of gratitude.”
…
…
“You will pay for my son’s life!”
In a split second, Song Tianba was right behind Xiao Luo. His aura was potently powerful and his immense energy ripped the stone slabs from the ground, sending them flying upward. They exploded in mid-air.
He held no weapon, and he struck Xiao Luo’s back with his bare hand.
His right palm channeled a terrifying force of inner energy, and there was a sound of a whistling wind as it moved toward Xiao Luo. The vibration created from Song Tianba’s strike distorted the air around his palm. If he had struck a boulder, it would instantly turn into powder. One could only imagine what it would do when it hit human flesh and blood.
