Chapter 297 - Cleaning up



Chapter 297: Cleaning up

An Yuan was looking down her nose as she munched on the pumpkin seeds, eyeing Xiao Luo arrogantly. Knowing that she had the advantage of numbers with nine of her family members alongside her, she was bent on teaching Xiao Luo a lesson. She intended to send a clear warning to every person in the Luo village that her family was not to be trifled with. Nobody was allowed to bully them.

“Uncle Chaofa, Luo is not that kind of person, there must be some kind of misunderstanding,” Xiao Ping said, stepping forward to defend Xiao Luo.

Xiao Qiudong, his head bathed in blood, still found the cheek to direct a sneering remark at Xiao Ping. “Hey, Xiao Ping, did you become so loyal to him because of the money that he lent you? Do you know that you’re acting like a dog!”

“Xiao Qiudong, are you f*cking asking for a beating?”

Xiao Ping was infuriated, and he glared at Xiao Qiudong.

Xiao Qiudong, satisfied that he had annoyed Xiao Ping, gave him a disdainful smile.

“Xiao Ping, do I have to repeat myself? I know that you’re close to Xiao Luo, but honestly, you better stay out of it. If not, I will beat you up as well!” Xiao Chaofa scowled, his face filled with nothing but anger, and he stared at Xiao Ping menacingly.

Clap, clap, clap.

Suddenly a surprising round of applause drew everyone’s attention.

Xiao Luo was clapping away with a sarcastic smile on his face. “Not bad, not bad at all. Your words and gestures were very poignant, what a fantastic show!”

Xiao Chaofa and his brothers were slightly taken aback at the sight of Xiao Luo applauding and a little confused by his words.

“What the f*ck are you trying to do? Believe me; I will slash you right now!” Xiao Dihong pulled out his knife and taunted Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo laughed with contempt and lowered his head, then without any warning, he darted toward Xiao Dihong in a flash, and in the next moment, he was next to him. Before Xiao Dihong could even react, Xiao Luo’s right leg lashed at his torso. The tremendous power that he unleashed was like a loaded spring being suddenly released.

Oomph!

A spray of blood burst out of Xiao Dihong’s mouth as the energy from the powerful kick ravaged through his entire body. He flew backward like an artillery shell spiraling out of control and landed heavily some six or seven meters away. His body doubled over into a ‘C’ shape, and after twitching uncontrollably for a moment, he fainted and lay slumped with blood all over his nose and mouth.

Gasp!

Everyone watching from the Seekong altar was utterly shocked, as none of them had expected that Xiao Luo was so highly skilled in fighting. His movements were indeed out of this world and unbelievable, and even Ji Siying was genuinely awed by Xiao Luo’s explosive power.

An Yuan threw away her pumpkin seeds and dashed toward Xiao Dihong in deep anguish. She was crying out her son’s name repeatedly, “Dihong, Dihong, Dihong…”

Whoosh~

Xiao Luo moved like a ghost, and he suddenly appeared right in her face, blocking the way.

“Y-you…What do you want? Move!”

As she looked into Xiao Luo’s eyes, An Yuan felt a shiver run down her spine, and her arrogant look disappeared altogether.

“Didn’t you say I slapped you?”

Xiao Luo’s eyes were piercingly cold. Without another word, he raised his right hand and slapped An Yuan across her dark face with a hefty blow.

Thwack!

It sounded like a loud clap, and a tooth flew out of her bloodied mouth as An Yuan spun on the spot, before collapsing.

She let out a shrill, blood-curdling scream as her face burned with unbearable pain. She held her hand to the left side of her face, which was swelling up alarmingly. Blood was oozing out from her mouth as she looked at Xiao Luo and trembled in fear. In her eyes, she saw Xiao Luo as a demon in the guise of a man.

“Now, I can say that I have indeed slapped you!”

Xiao Luo stared coldly at her with a disdainful smirk.

“You son of a b*tch, I am taking your life!”

Xiao Chaofa howled in rage. He loved his wife very much, and he went into a frenzy as he witnessed An Yuan getting slapped to the ground by Xiao Luo. He let out a roar and lifted an angular granite rock used to lay the foundation. He then rushed towards Xiao Luo, mercilessly smashing the rock at Xiao Luo’s head.

Xiao Luo reacted instinctively, and he turned around to counter with a punch.

Crash!

His fist met the incoming rock, and a loud resounding thud echoed in the air, The tremendous power of the impact pulverized the heavy mountain rock that weighed some tens of catty. It shattered into countless pieces, sending them flying in all directions. Still recovering from the shock, Xiao Chaofa was even more surprised and in no position to defend himself, when Xiao Luo suddenly struck a high kick directly into his face.

URGH!

Xiao Chaofa’s head was thrown back, and he collapsed with a painful groan as blood gushed out from his mouth.

Everyone was slack-jawed and lost for words, only their “oohs” and” aahs” were audible as they witnessed a scene that ordinarily could only happen on the Wuxia television programs.

Xiao Ping was also completely stunned, looking on like a paralyzed chicken.

A tremendous sense of fear now overcame xiao Qiudong. He could not believe that this was the same “weak” Xiao Luo that he had known all his life.

Xiao Chaolai and his six other kinsmen were equally stunned as they saw Xiao Luo’s outrageous skills. They suddenly lost their courage, and none dared to rush at Xiao Luo to take him on.

“What, are you scared?”

Xiao Luo turned around and sneered at them.

“Xiao Luo, y-you…you better not overdo it!” Xiao Chaolai shouted, anxious, and stricken with fear.

“I am overdoing it?”

Xiao Luo could not help laughing and said, “Everyone in the village witnessed the deeds of your brothers, and we are all very aware of who the culprits are that is overdoing it. Come, let’s continue, didn’t you all want to teach me a lesson? Didn’t you all want me to kneel on the ground to apologize? You were so arrogant earlier, so why are you all shivering now?”

Xiao Chaolai and his kin were indeed shivering and experiencing shortness of breath. They couldn’t believe that Xiao Luo had become so powerful, he was like a monster, and they feared him.

“If you’re not coming for me, then I’m coming for you!”

Xiao Luo flashed a sinister grin, and his eyes glowered for a brief moment. He whooped and flew at them before they knew it, thrashing three men and sending them flying in the air. They howled in excruciating pain, feeling as if the force of the blows shifted their internal organs. And just like Xiao Chaofa, they all ended up flat on the ground, vomiting blood.

One of them reacted in time and swung his wooden cudgel at Xiao Luo.

But, Xiao Luo’s fist smashed through it like a culm of young bamboo, and the punch continued to land heavily on his chest, causing him to collapse and spew blood.

Another two men tried to resist, but Xiao Luo used a knife-hand chop on their necks, and they slumped to the ground, passing out immediately.

Xiao Chaolai was the last man standing, and as Xiao Luo approached him ominously, there was no escape. He cringed from Xiao Luo’s cold stare.

“It’s your turn now!”

His words were cold as steel and heartless, a voice from the hell of Novoland [1].

Xiao Chaolai broke out in a cold sweat and instantly dropped to his knees, begging for mercy. He was so terrified that he wet his pants, and the air was rank with the pungent smell of urine.

“N-no, I-I’m wrong, Xiao Luo, I admit that I’m wrong…please,” Xiao Chaolai pled for his life, he was pale as a ghost and overcome with dread.

“You now know you’re wrong? What did you do wrong?”

Xiao Luo’s expression was stern and wrathful, seeming like he’d go through the roof at any time, and Xiao Chaolai couldn’t help feeling that he was facing a bloodthirsty demon.

“I-I shouldn’t have instigated An Yuan to accuse you of slapping her, and I shouldn’t have instigated my brothers to deal with you. My mouth is evil, and I deserve to be punished by you.”

Xiao Chaolai kept slapping himself and was in such fear of Xiao Luo that he blurted, “A-and I shouldn’t have slept with An Yuan, sob, sob. I even had an affair with my brother’s wife!”

The fear he had towards Xiao Luo drove him to lose his composure entirely, and he inadvertently spilled every single dirty little secret he had.

Everyone heard and was in a complete state of shock as they looked over at An Yuan. Only then did they realize why the two of them were always together, even going up the mountain together to get firewood. Nobody would have suspected that they had an extramarital relationship!
