As soon as Feng Qiwu finished speaking, everyone in the room couldn’t help but reveal looks of horror, then all turned to stare at his figure in shock.
"Cr-Crown Prince, you... why are you here?" The village chief Wan Chang said, trembling with fear.
He was once a general under Feng Qiwu.
At that time, Feng Qiwu had not gone mad yet, but his demands on his subordinates were very strict. Anyone who violated military discipline would be severely punished.
He was a chiliarch back then, but after getting drunk, he couldn’t resist using force on a pretty village girl, leading to her shameful and tragic suicide, so he had to flee.
Otherwise, if Feng Qiwu found out, he would surely have been executed.
Unexpectedly, just as he was fleeing to Xia Yu Pass, he heard news that Feng Qiwu had suddenly gone mad and become bloodthirsty and ruthless.
This actually made him breathe a sigh of relief.
After that, he stayed at Xia Yu Pass, and as more and more common people suffered under the reckless actions of the Da Qin officials, he simply became a bandit in the mountains.
He used military training techniques to manage these people. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⟡fire.net
Later, when Master Ling came to give him advice, Xia Yu Pass became as solid as an iron barrel, heavily fortified on all sides.
He naturally became the local tyrant, living a life of unbridled comfort.
But never in his wildest dreams did he expect Feng Qiwu to suddenly appear before him.
Feng Qiwu glanced at Wan Chang, then squinted and said, "You... look familiar."
Upon hearing this, Wan Chang shuddered, then mustered up his courage and said, "You’ve mistaken me for someone else!"
Feng Qiwu chuckled coldly, "It was you who violated an innocent woman, causing her to commit suicide to prove her innocence. I didn’t expect you would flee to Xia Yu Pass to continue your misdeeds."
"You deserve to die!"
Today, it’s time to settle both the old and new scores.
Hearing Feng Qiwu’s words, Wan Chang jumped out of his chair in a flash.
Then he loudly shouted, "Someone, kill him for me!"
After speaking, he looked at Feng Qiwu with a grim expression and gritted his teeth, "I said I would marry her, it was she who refused. What could I do?"
"Crown Prince, this is not the Capital City. Do you think you’ll find a way out once you’re on my turf?" Wan Sheng sneered.
He didn’t expect that Feng Qiwu would dare to break into the stronghold of Xia Yu Pass alone.
In this case, things became much easier.
But at this moment, Master Ling’s face suddenly changed dramatically as he pointed at Feng Qiwu’s face and exclaimed in shock, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"You clearly have a doomed fate, how come there’s now a trace of vitality?" Master Ling said, losing his composure.
Then he quickly began to calculate with his fingers.
Moments later, with a look of disbelief, he said to Feng Qiwu, "An Alien Star has intervened, resolving your death omen!"
This virtually impossible event happened without their knowledge?
Feng Qiwu’s eyes narrowed upon hearing this, and he coldly looked at Master Ling before him.
"An Alien Star intervened? What does that mean?" Was he referring to Susu?
If so, then this person cannot be left alive.
No one can reveal Susu’s secret.
With this thought, murderous intent surged in Feng Qiwu’s heart as he suddenly attacked Master Ling.
Master Ling quickly raised his Compass to block Feng Qiwu’s attack.
He initially thought that with his cultivation, handling Feng Qiwu would be more than sufficient.
But he soon discovered that Feng Qiwu was not an easy opponent.
In no time, Master Ling found himself in over his head, feeling a headache.
Not to mention, a Pure Yang physique is the most suited for cultivation; once trained, progress is exceptionally rapid, far surpassing others by miles.
And Feng Qiwu, having fought on battlefields, was filled with a murderous aura which was quite a counter to cultivators like him.
What’s most troubling is, how is Feng Qiwu already able to use Star Power?
He was sure that Lingxi didn’t leave Feng Qiwu any cultivation mental method or anything of the sort back then.
So how did Feng Qiwu, who had never been exposed to cultivation methods, come to master Star Power?
And when Wan Chang saw Feng Qiwu and Master Ling entangled in battle, he immediately shed his previous bravado and crept toward the door.
He had witnessed with his own eyes how Feng Qiwu once speared through more than a dozen enemies, and the fear of Feng Qiwu was etched deeply in his bones—something a few years of living like a local tyrant couldn’t erase.
Moreover, Feng Qiwu had grown even more brutal over the years.
If he didn’t leave now, wasn’t he just waiting to die?
Just then, other bandits, who heard Wan Chang’s shout, also rushed over.
They didn’t recognize Feng Qiwu and, seeing him fighting Master Ling, immediately chose to help Master Ling without hesitation.
But unfortunately, this level of battle was nothing they could participate in.
As soon as their bodies entered the combat zone, they were swept away and killed by the residual Sword Qi from Feng Qiwu’s sword.
Feng Qiwu hadn’t even intentionally aimed to kill them; they just walked into the blade on their own.
Witnessing this, Wan Chang was increasingly terrified.
Choosing to slip away proved to be the right decision. This madman had become even more terrifying.
Having barely made it to the doorway, Wan Chang quickly ran outside.
But at that moment, Feng Qiwu casually kicked up a long sword from the ground with the tip of his foot.
In an instant, the sword flew through the air, and before Wan Chang could react, it pierced through his heart from behind.
Before falling, he couldn’t help but feel, "Indeed, there’s no escaping death today."
After all... the God of Killing himself had come to claim his life.
Seeing Wan Chang dead, the other bandits were suddenly taken aback.
The chieftain was the most skilled among them, and now that he was dead, could they possibly stand a chance against this red-clad man?
At this time, Master Ling was also struggling.
He couldn’t understand how Feng Qiwu had become so powerful.
The abundance of Star Power he displayed didn’t resemble the capabilities of someone who had been cultivating for a few decades.
For a moment, dodging and shouting simultaneously, Master Ling yelled, "Stop! Feng Qiwu, I’m a kinsman of your mother Lingxi!"
Hearing this, Feng Qiwu’s movements halted abruptly.
If he had heard such words in the past, he definitely would have grown even more resentful and killed the person outright.
However, after Susu had explained her hardships and sacrifices back then, he no longer harbored blame towards her.
Furthermore, all information on her had been destroyed by Feng Qingyang. Other than discovering her name was Lingxi, he found nothing else.
Unexpectedly, today someone claimed to be her kinsman?
"You better not be deceiving me, or I have ten thousand ways to make you wish for death!" Feng Qiwu said coldly.
