Chapter 104: The Dust Had Settled

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Looking at the beheaded wooden puppet, the man wailed and sat on the ground, crying loudly.

“Boo hoo hoo… My puppet! My puppet!”

Old Madam Xue saw how upset her son was and the fury in her heart grew. “Bitch! I low dare you make my son cry? I’ll take your miserable life.”

With one loud roar, Old Madam Xue lunged at Su Ying.

Su Ying drew out another light-beam saber from her sash and closed her eyes. She slowly swung the light-beam saber in her hand, and it gradually formed an impregnable barrier in the air, completely enveloping Su Ying with an invincible shield.

When she saw that, Old Madam Xue gave a sarcastic sneer. “Though you’re not capable, you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. Prepare to die!”

Suddenly, poison needles flew toward Su Ying from all directions in a dense web that left no gaps.

…..

However, just as the poison needles approached the enclosure of light, they were all repelled. The needles were unable to touch Su Ying at all.

Old Madam Xue’s eyes widened. No expert, no matter how powerful, had ever escaped from her poison needles, yet Su Ying managed to dodge all of them without moving.

This ignited Old Madam Xue’s thirst to win. She took out a bell from her pocket and slowly shook it in a strange manner.

Ding ling! Ding ling! The sound was like a hook tugging on people’s heartstrings.

And in the room, Madam Sun, who had lost her head and both arms, suddenly sat up from the bed and walked stiffly through the door.

Wang Furong and Madam Zhou were so terrified that their faces turned pale.

Wang Lang’s face also turned pale and he stood rooted to the ground.

“Mother, Mother…” Wang Lang wanted to step forward to stop Madam Sun, but he was pulled back by Madam Zhou.

“Husband, don’t… don’t go… She… She is not… not Mother anymore. She is not Mother anymore!”

Wang Lang pushed Madam Zhou away and ran after Madam Sun as if he was possessed.

The moment he stepped into the courtyard, the ring of light around Su Ying’s body suddenly exploded with a powerful force that sent everyone standing in the courtyard flying.

Madam Sun’s body flew high into the sky. Thump! With a loud sound, she fell to the ground heavily, her body instantly breaking into pieces.

Su Ying withdrew her light-beam saber and pointed it at Old Madam Xue’s forehead.

Old Madam Xue’s cloudy eyes were filled with ruthlessness. She spat out a mouthful of blood and suddenly gave a scornful laugh. “Bitch, what kind of martial skill are you showing off?”

Su Ying’s expression was icy and totally devoid of emotion. There was only a bloodthirsty chill in her eyes. “Tear Scum Apart Skill.”

She thrust the light-beam saber in her hand forward and nimbly sent Old Madam Xue to the netherworld.

The figure on the rooftop wanted to flee when he saw that Old Madam Xue was dead. Not surprisingly, Su Ying didn’t give him the chance.

She swung the light-beam saber in her hand and stabbed it viciously into the other party’s thigh.

“Argh!” Nan Zhong cried out in pain and fell to the ground heavily.

Su Ying looked at the man who was probably only as tall as her waist and gave a scornful sneer. “You are the Venom Cult’s leader?”

Nan Zhong looked at the disdain in Su Ying’s eyes, and a strong sense of humiliation and hatred almost consumed him. “You’re mocking me! You arrogant people think that just because you’re taller than me, you can bully me and lord over me. Then I’ll let you guys have a taste of being controlled by me and becoming my servile dogs!”

Nan Zhong was a dwarf and had been despised by his people since he was a child. He had used all sorts of methods to learn the skill of nurturing venomous bugs, just so that one day, everyone who looked down on him would bow at his feet. It did not occur to him that he would fall at Su Ying’s hands today.

Su Ying pointed the light-beam saber in her hand at his forehead. “Even if you look like a stray dog, it’s not a reason for me to humiliate you. I, Su Ying, have never been a righteous person. But since you harmed my people, you deserve to die! Go to the Palace of the King of Hell to vent your resentment.”

Her hand rose and the saber fell, and a child-like head rolled off.

Su Ying crushed the bone flute on the ground with her foot, and the pale yellow fragments disappeared into the dust as they were rubbed into the ground.

The moment the bone flute shattered, the venomous bug-infected people who had been lunging wildly froze on the spot for a moment as if someone had pressed the pause button. Then, their bodies toppled backward and they all fell to the ground.

Su Ying slowly turned her head, and the light-beam saber in her hand glowed with a bloodthirsty light. Her almond-shaped eyes were exceptionally bright in the night as if they could light up this piece of land that had been corroded by filth.

Meanwhile, Tiger Might was still embroiled in a bloodbath with the venomous bug-infected people. Just as his saber was about to swing down, the venomous bug-infected people that were swarming forward fell to the ground collectively.

Tiger Might gripped the big saber in his hand tightly. As he was exhausted, he gasped heavily for breath. In the quiet night, only their tired and heavy breathing could be heard.

Tiger Might turned around and saw Qiao Yang, who was covered in blood, lying on the ground. His eyes widened and he yelled in shock, “Qiao Yang!”

Qiao Yang was so shocked that he almost jumped up from the ground. “What’s wrong, Big Brother? Did the venomous bug-infected people rise up again?”

Tiger Might saw how wary yet confused Qiao Yang looked, and he suddenly burst out laughing.

“You damn brat! I thought you were dead. Hahahaha!”

“Big Brother, don’t curse me. I am not married yet.”

Tiger Might propped his body up and pulled Qiao Yang up from the ground.

Qiao Yang looked at the venomous bug-infected people lying on the ground and was a little puzzled. “What’s wrong with these bastards? Why are they not moving anymore?”

“Let’s go to Su Ying’s place and take a look,” Tiger Might said with a frown.

“Alright.”

Tiger Might put his fingers to his mouth and whistled. A moment later, the horse that had been frightened away trotted over.

Both Tiger Might and Qiao Yang got onto the horse and they galloped toward Su Ying’s house.

After Su Ying dealt with Old Madam Xue and Nan Zhong, she looked at the man who was wailing loudly. He was like a recluse who had shut himself off in his own world. Even when Old Madam Xue died in front of him, he didn’t react at all.

Su Ying raised her eyes and her attention was suddenly attracted by a room at the side.

She walked over and opened the slightly ajar door with one kick. The room was filled with rows of wooden puppets.

Su Ying walked up to one of the wooden puppets and picked it up to take a look. She found that not only were these wooden puppets crafted in a very realistic manner, but the details were also very vivid. Even the joints of the fingers were very flexible.

“Don’t you touch my puppets!” The man suddenly appeared behind Su Ying.

Su Ying turned around and looked at him. “Did you make all these?”

“Yes.” The man lifted his chin proudly like a child who had yet to lose his innocence.

The corner of Su Ying’s lips curled up. “They are quite well made.”

Xue Zhen’s eyes lit up. “You really think I made them well?”

“Of course.”

“If you like it, I’ll give it to you. We’re friends from now on.”

Su Ying shook her head. “1 don’t like wooden puppets.”

“Then what do you like?”

“Come with me and I’ll tell you.”

Xue Zhen, however, shook his head and said, “No, no. Mother won’t allow me to leave the house. She’ll be angry. She’ll beat me.”

“Don’t be afraid. She’s already dead. She won’t hit or scold you anymore.”

Xue Zhen furrowed his brows in distress. “Dead? She won’t hit or scold me anymore?”

“Yes.”

“Hahahaha! That’s really great. I’ll go with you. I want to go with you.”

Su Ying led Xue Zhen out of the house. Just as they were about to leave, Wang Lang suddenly rushed over and blocked Su Ying’s way..
