"So... are you sure everything's fine?"
"Of course it's fine. If this woman hadn't died, I wouldn't have even bothered telling you all this. Anyway, I've said my piece. Whether you want to go or not is your business." The young man then said to the others, "Here. I can't be bothered to look at her again. You guys go in, carry her out, and find a place to bury her. What damned luck!"
"Don't worry, Senior Brother, leave it to !" The ugly, twenty-five or twenty-six-year-old man patted his chest and scurried into the house.
The thirty-sothing youth was slightly taken aback, then grumbled, "Damn it, that guy... It's not like it's a good job, yet he's fighting to do it."
The remaining two exchanged a look. One of them muttered in annoyance, "Isn't he just trying to kiss your ass, Senior Brother? Trying to look good in front of you!"
Just then, the ugly man had already carried the corpse out of the house and was about to find a place to bury it.
Xu Luo, who was hidden in the shadows, hadn't wanted to reveal himself, but he could no longer bear it. This sect, from top to bottom, was nothing but a pack of animals!
A twelve or thirteen-year-old kid could excitedly talk about giving soone the death of a thousand cuts, and these disciples in their twenties and thirties could commit such monstrous acts in broad daylight. One could only imagine what kind of filth the entire Stony Sect was made of!
"Hurry up, damn it. You're so slow carrying sothing that's barely a hundred pounds." The thirty-sothing youth didn't seem to fall for the ass-kissing, and said listlessly.
The ugly man quickly picked up his pace and said fawningly, "Don't worry, Senior Brother. I'll speed up right away!"
"Fuck!" The youth couldn't help but curse. He was about to say sothing else when he suddenly felt a slight chill. He shivered involuntarily and asked, "Why is it a little cold?"
He turned to the side, only to see that his two junior brothers had both fallen to the ground, their heads severed from their bodies!
"Th—" The youth only managed to get out a single word before he saw a headless corpse spurting blood. Then, he had a thought: why did this headless body look so familiar? It looked just like him!
And then... there was no 'and then'. He was dead.
Xu Luo had killed the three Stony Sect disciples in one go, but the righteous anger in his chest had hardly subsided. He stared coldly at the ugly man and the female corpse on his shoulder.
"Scum!"
PFFT!
An aqua-blue light flared from Lan, directly severing the ugly bastard's head. He collapsed limply to the ground without even a chance to beg for his life.
Xu Luo glanced at the woman, who had long since stopped breathing. He sighed, casually grabbed a bedsheet, covered her body with it, and walked out.
The courtyard fell silent. Xu Luo looked up at the sky and thought, 'So this is what a sect is?'
"Sen—" The outer door was suddenly pushed open. A young man in his twenties walked in and froze when he saw Xu Luo in the courtyard. He was about to speak when he suddenly felt a chill on his throat. He was horrified. 'Who is this? How did he get into our sect? How is he so strong? Is he an enemy?'
In the blink of an eye, countless thoughts flashed through the young man's mind.
"Where are you keeping the person you captured from the secular world?" Xu Luo said coldly in the young man's ear. "Speak!"
The young man shivered. He realized who this person was. He was here to save soone!
RIP!
In the instant the young man hesitated, a sharp pain shot through his neck. Scared out of his wits, he cried out in a low voice, "Don't kill ! I'll talk... I'll talk!"
"Then hurry up!" Xu Luo had absolutely no good impression of this sect. If he didn't have to save his elder brother, he would have likely slaughtered the entire place already.
"In... in the back mountains... The sect's upper echelons live there. Security is... very tight," the terrified young man stamred.
"So, the ones living here are all disciples of your sect?" Xu Luo asked coldly.
"Yes, that's right," the young man answered, trembling.
"So, is there much contact between this area and the back mountains?" Xu Luo asked faintly.
"N-not much. Especially recently. The higher-ups in the back mountains have all been busy... busy with the person you're here to save. They don't have ti... to manage us." The young man glanced at the corpses in the courtyard and stamred, "So... so they... dared to act so recklessly."
"Recklessly? Heh..." Xu Luo sneered, lightly dragging Lan across the young man's neck. "I don't think they were acting recklessly. Still trying to make excuses for yourselves at a ti like this. You're not stupid, but it's a pity..."
The young man's eyes widened, the light in them slowly dimming. His purpose for coming here wasn't pure, either. The thirty-sothing senior brother had often been bringing won from the dungeons over here recently. Just like the others in the courtyard, he had intended to co and get a piece of the action... but instead, he t Xu Luo.
After leaving the courtyard, Xu Luo headed directly for the other courtyards.
Although deep down, Xu Luo had already concluded there were no good people in this sect, he never expected that what he saw would be far more... shocking than he could have ever imagined.
People like that thirty-sothing youth were everywhere in this sect; he was not an isolated case at all.
From a distance, he could hear waves of obscene sounds. Not all the won were as defiant as the one Xu Luo had just encountered. To survive, many had no choice but to bow and scrape, betraying their own hearts to please the scum of the Stony Sect.
So other won had already grown numb, letting themselves be trampled upon...
As Xu Luo walked, he killed.
In just a few monts, he had already cut down over thirty Stony Sect disciples in this area.
A scene that shook him was when, after he killed several Stony Sect disciples who were in the middle of their evil deeds, a woman who had just been forced to please that scum gritted her teeth, found a sharp knife, and viciously stabbed it into the bodies of the disciples who weren't quite dead yet.
One stab... two stabs... countless stabs!
Xu Luo watched this scene and walked away in silence. These won who had been forced to submit were not without hatred in their hearts. They simply lacked the strength to resist and the courage to commit suicide. But when misfortune befell those who trampled their dignity and bodies, they... would likewise unleash the rage that had been suppressed in their hearts for who knows how long.
BANG!
Xu Luo kicked open the door to an exceptionally luxurious and exquisite room. A gasp and an angry, suppressed curse ca from within.
"Who is it? Are you looking to die?"
BANG!
Xu Luo kicked the inner room's door to pieces. He then saw a man and a woman sitting at a table, drinking.
The man looked to be in his twenties. He was handso, and his eyes blazed with intense anger. Upon seeing Xu Luo, he was slightly startled, but he quickly cald down and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
The woman was as beautiful as a flower. Her gaze toward Xu Luo was also filled with anger and surprise, along with a trace of shyness.
"The one who's here to kill you," Xu Luo said flatly, walking straight toward the man.
"Junior Sister, don't move!" The man gave a cold smile, shot to his feet, and looked down on Xu Luo with a disdainful expression. "I don't know how you snuck in here, but... kill ? HAHAHAHA! Are you kidding ?"
As he spoke, an extrely powerful aura suddenly erupted from the man's body. A visible layer of True Essence enveloped him, forming a defense that resembled a suit of armor!
Solidified True Essence Protection... a Sword Venerable!
This young man actually possessed the strength of a Sword Venerable!
A glint flashed in Xu Luo's eyes. Among those he had just killed, the strongest were only eighth or ninth-tier Great Sword Masters, who were slain by Xu Luo in a single exchange.
This was actually the first Sword Venerable.
"What, are you scared?" the young man said with a faint smile. He then shot into motion, lunging at Xu Luo.
SQUELCH!
Lan, in Xu Luo's hand, plunged directly into the young man's chest, sinking all the way in. Xu Luo smiled faintly. "Yes, I'm terrified."
"You..." The young man never would have imagined that this youth, who looked several years younger than him, possessed such terrifying strength. And his speed... it was so fast that it was impossible to react!
Xu Luo pulled Lan out. The young man collapsed onto the wine table in front of him, his eyes still open, a look of disbelief lingering within them.
As the head disciple of the Stony Sect's Outer Sect, a powerful Tier One Sword Venerable, he had died just like that at the hands of a teenager.
The woman at the table first showed a look of terror, but she quickly cald down. She fixed her alluring eyes on Xu Luo and said in a sweet voice, "My, you're so strong, handso! Please don't kill , okay? I... can do many things for you."
The woman said sweetly, "What do you say, handso...?"
PFFT!
Xu Luo flicked his finger, and a peerlessly powerful surge of energy pierced straight through the woman's brow.
The female Stony Sect disciple's wide eyes were filled with disbelief. In the mont before her death, they were also filled with shock, anger, and regret...
Perhaps if she had put up a desperate fight, she might have had a slim chance of survival. She never expected that this handso, almost perfect-looking young man would be so ruthlessly decisive...
"They all deserve to die," Xu Luo grumbled coldly as he turned away.
