Capítulo 691: Chapter 524: The Hong Family Army, That Existence Should Die
The child screamed in frenzy, his face ferocious, looking at Xu Gu with eyes full of viciousness and malevolence.
Like a venomous snake.
His entire life’s suffering, all added up, didn’t compare to today’s pain.
Only now did he start to regret, fear, and realize what true suffering meant.
“You… dare… my great…” The child trembled all over, using all his strength to threaten.
But in the next instant.
His body exploded.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Suddenly, everything seemed to quiet down.
This venomous red-clothed boy died just like that.
Xu Gu, however, remained calm, and with composure, continued to cover the little girl’s eyes, leading her to another direction.
Not wanting her to witness this bloody scene.
“Thump.”
After the little girl left that place, her legs gave out, and she collapsed to the ground, her face pale.
There was no joy of being rescued.
Instead, there was only endless sadness and a sense of powerless despair.
She could only weep.
“Brother and Grandpa…”
She cried with utmost sorrow.
She was on the verge of an emotional breakdown, almost fainting.
Xu Gu sighed, reached out his finger, and pressed it to the little girl’s forehead, releasing an exceedingly gentle force to help her sort out her emotions.
At this moment, all he felt was heartache.
He had already figured out what was going on.
The reason there were still people in the old city was not because they could survive or didn’t want to leave.
They were being farmed.
All the survivors of the old city were descendants of the Yang God.
And then, they were farmed by the Demon Lord of Mayhem.
Every so often, a few would be randomly selected for a feast.
And according to the red-clothed boy’s words, the feasting process was extremely brutal.
Being skinned alive, tendons pulled, blood drained, bones extracted!
It was torture!
“I’m sorry, I arrived too late.”
Xu Gu held the sobbing little girl in his arms, his mind heavy with grief.
The Yang God, a millennium ago, had brought peace to the Human Clan; now his descendants are suffering torment!
This was a failure of their younger generation!
And their impotence!
“Immortal Brother, are you an Immortal? Can you save my Grandpa and Brother…”
The girl, protected by Xu Gu’s power, calmed down gradually, suppressing her emotions of sorrow, despair, and heartache, and finally looked up at Xu Gu with hopeful eyes.
She saw Xu Gu as a Heavenly God descending.
Hoping that Xu Gu could save her Grandpa and Brother.
Xu Gu smiled, trying to be as gentle as possible, and said:
“Of course, I am here to rescue you.
“You have suffered.”
“Really?”
The little girl’s eyes were filled with joy and excitement. She grabbed Xu Gu’s hand and ran towards her home.
Xu Gu held her, and they took flight.
“Immortal Brother, don’t do this, they will find us.”
The little girl was initially delighted to be flying, then became fearful.
“Don’t be afraid. I’m an Immortal; no one will be our opponent.”
Xu Gu comforted her with a smile.
The girl thought about it and accepted it as true, so her anxious heart relaxed.
As Xu Gu landed.
Many people in the settlement looked over.
Their eyes timid.
Dressed in tattered clothes, they looked like refugees.
In their eyes was only numbness and a sense of death.
They had been farmed for too long.
Most people seemed to have resigned to their fate.
Xu Gu clenched his fist and then relaxed it, showing a soft smile to the people in front of him.
He didn’t say much else.
After resolving all troubles.
They don’t need to say anything; they will naturally become happy and at ease.
“Now talking to them would only fluctuate their emotions, raising doubts, or other troublesome matters.
“Brother! Grandpa!”
“I’ve met an Immortal!”
“The Immortal has come to save us!”
The little girl ran all the way, very happy and joyful, as if she had seen hope.
“An Immortal?”
A young man with a dirty face and so thin as if only covered in skin and bones, coughed a few times, looking at Xu Gu, half-believing, half-doubting.
Even full of vigilance.
Xu Gu waved his hand casually.
It seemed as if a breeze caressed by.
The previously gravely ill young boy instantly became vigorous, all illnesses vanished.
“This this this…”
The boy who was just doubtful was now overjoyed, overwhelmed with excitement.
“Is he truly an Immortal?”
Xu Gu did not answer them, but instead asked with a gentle smile:
“What are your names?”
“My name is Li Chen!” Li Chen responded.
The little girl finally remembered to introduce herself as well, saying, “My name is Li Yu!”
“Close your eyes later,” Xu Gu told them with a smile.
“Hm?”
The two children clearly didn’t understand, but still nodded.
One must simply follow the words of an Immortal brother.
“Who is that kid? How dare he be so reckless in the old city?”
“I wonder if that place is a forbidden area for that existence?”
“Truly a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger!”
The old city’s scene was not difficult for the outside world to see, hence it was common for people to watch those residing there being hunted.
And to derive pleasure from it.
After all, this was the center of the Divine Domain Continent.
Although they were unaware that these captivated people were the descendants of the Yang God.
They knew they were the Human Clan!
Amidst this discussion,
A mournful cry suddenly came from outside.
“Who dares provoke our Hong Family Army!”
The speaker, a middle-aged beautiful woman who looked elegant and luxurious.
But had an fierce expression on her face.
She too was of the Human Clan, but did not regard herself as such, turning her blade on her own kin.
Even descendants of the sages!
Xu Gu paid her no mind.
Instead, he earnestly instructed Li Chen and Li Yu, saying:
“Remember to close your eyes.”
He did not act to shield their senses, wanting them to know that he had avenged them.
He asked them to close their eyes because the scene was too gory.
Not suitable for viewing.
“Damn it! Didn’t you hear?”
“Come out and meet your demise!”
The middle-aged beauty spoke sharply, actually pressing down with a crushing palm strike.
A few children in red, next to her, also showed ferocious expressions as they pounced to attack.
Like a pack of vicious dogs.
How long had it been since the Hong Family Army was offended by outsiders!
Especially, when the offender was a member of the Human Clan!
Truly asking for a quick death!
“Clamor!”
Xu Gu’s brows slightly furrowed, and he waved his hand casually.
…
He earnestly reminded Li Chen and Li Yu, saying:
“Remember to close your eyes.”
He did not act to shield their senses because he wanted them to know that he had taken revenge for them.
Asking them to close their eyes was because the situation was too bloody.
Not suitable for viewing.
“Damn it! Didn’t you hear?”
“Come out and meet your demise!”
The middle-aged beauty spoke sharply, actually pressing down with a crushing palm strike.
Several children in red next to her also showed ferocious expressions as they pounced to attack.
