Chapter 41 -41: Slaughter, Entering the City
“Guest, is there perhaps some misunderstanding?”
The waiter’s face bore a warm smile as he approached Liang Hui once again.
Shick!
Blood sprayed from his neck, and the waiter’s warmth turned to bewilderment.
He had been on his highest guard; how could he not have dodged such a simple stab?
Liang Hui retracted his lance, looking indifferently at the figure collapsed on the ground, sighing lightly.
Why must someone court death? Isn’t it best if unrelated parties simply went their separate ways?
His thoughts raced, but his actions never ceased.
He reined his horse around, lance poised in the air, and urged his steed into a gallop.
Only now did three young men and women who were drinking tea in front of the tea house stand up, their faces pale, gripping their longswords as they stared at Liang Hui charging toward them.
Ignoring the three wary young men and women, he charged straight for the tea house’s main door.
Boom!
The lance, like a heavy hammer, smashed the door to splinters.
A fierce slash of knife light, mingling with the flying wood chips, aimed at the horse’s head.
At the same time, a copious amount of unknown white powder was thrown at the figure on horseback.
The withdrawn lance swirled slightly, whipping up the sound of slicing wind, mixed with the white powder, and stabbed toward the knife light.
Clang!
In the spark of metal clashing, the fierce knife light was pierced through.
It struck the attacker’s chest, shattering his internal organs.
At that moment, another assailant, who had thrown the powder, quickly retreated backward, smashing through a wooden wall in an attempt to flee.
Liang Hui jabbed his lance into the ground and drew the bow and arrows from his back.
Pulling the string, shoot!
The arrow flew like a shooting star, piercing through the heart.
The assailant stumbled a few steps before collapsing on the grass.
“Why did you kill them? They didn’t seem to offend you,” the elder youth in the blue shirt shouted with a deep voice.
“Big brother! Don’t say anymore,” a slightly younger man said.
The pale-faced man pointed inside the tea house, where blood-stained clothes lay scattered like trash next to the stove.
At that moment, the three young men and women seemed to realize something, their heads dropping to look at the tea on the table.
Liang Hui didn’t pay too much attention to their actions.
He pulled the lance out of the ground and searched the body of the first person he had killed for ‘Dream-entering’ items.
Afterwards, he spurred his horse onward.
Arriving where the escapee had collapsed, he thrust his lance through the skull.
After confirming death, he picked up the deceased’s ‘Dream-entering’ items and returned to the tea house.
“I’m sorry! We misunderstood you,” the woman in the yellow shirt said, her face flaming with apology.
The older youth next to her also stood by, full of guilt.
“If I were you, I would now take out all the Detoxification Pills to avoid the possible toxins in the tea,” Liang Hui said.
As he rode up to the trio, he loosened his grip on the reins and caressed the horse’s head to calm the somewhat panicked animal.
On hearing his words, the three young people immediately took out many pills from their bosoms and tossed them into their mouths.
The younger man swallowed the pills and asked in a muffled voice.
“Senior, how did you know there was something wrong with this tea house? Is it experience?”
“Experience?”
The youth chuckled lightly.
“I just noticed that the waiter had martial training and simply warned him to keep away from me,” he said.
“Just that? Then why attack the tea house?”
Liang Hui glanced deeply at the youth but didn’t reply.
He spurred his horse toward Burntwood City, with no intention of further discussion with the trio.
What he had done was purely for self-defense; as for saving the three of them, he hadn’t cared much.
Time passed.
Liang Hui was now very close to Burntwood City.
Suddenly, the familiar sound of horse hooves and shouting came from behind.
“Senior, we have yet to thank you for saving our lives,”
Three figures urged their horses to come quickly and stopped five steps away from Liang Hui.
“Senior, whatever you wish for, if we have it, we can offer it to you.”
“There’s no need for compensation. I never intended to save you; in the end, it was your good fortune.”
Liang Hui reined in his horse and pointed towards the massive city walls vaguely visible in the distance.
“Let’s leave it at this, you should go ahead.”
After these words fell, the three young men and women exchanged glances.
“Yuan Cheng!”
“Yuan Tu!”
“Yuan Miaoxian!”
“Senior, if there’s anything you need us to do in Burntwood City, we will do our utmost to accomplish it,”
Starting with the eldest among the young men, the three slowly stated their names.
Then, they sped up their horses and galloped away.
Liang Hui, who remained in place, could no longer see their figures and set out again.
It was about evening when he finally appeared before the city gates.

There weren’t many people queuing to enter the city, and Liang Hui entered the city walls quickly.
As he walked into the main street, the sounds of hawkers, hosts drumming up business, and noisy arguments reached his ears non-stop.
And the scent of various perfumes constantly assailed his nostrils.
This was an opulence far surpassing Yuanshui City. Even in Leizhou, Burntwood City could be considered a medium-sized city.
While observing the surrounding environment, he searched for an inn.
Suddenly, a frail boy with a panicked expression came running towards him, about to collide with him.
Liang Hui subtly shifted his body to the side, avoiding the collision, and continued forward.
The frail boy who was left behind looked somewhat dazed.
Then, the boy quickly ran into a small alley.
There stood a figure in the alley, sturdy and dressed in a grey Kung Fu uniform, holding still.
“Big Dog Bro….”
Slap!
The figure in the grey Kung Fu uniform stepped forward and smacked the boy across the face.
“Are you an idiot? Didn’t you see the blood on the man with the mask? How could you dare to provoke someone like that? Be careful, or you might end up dead in a corner one day.”
Watching the child with a swollen face leaning against the wall, greed and hesitation flickered across the Great Han’s face.
“Kid, be smart, or you’ll end up being sent there,”
“I know, I will try my best,” the frail boy replied with a slurred speech, his swollen face showing sincere fear, seemingly terrified by that place.
…
Meanwhile.
Liang Hui had already found an inn, booked a room,
and decided to dine at the inn.
The youth sat in a chair near the window on the second floor, waiting for his meal while listening to the rowdy conversations around him.
Gathering information of value.
As the meal was served, Liang Hui also received some rather valuable information, one piece concerning himself.
One of the top sects of the Demonic Path—the Sect Master of the Demon Spirit Sect—had breached the Spirit Gate and abducted Liang Si to perform a Blood Sacrifice to ascertain his whereabouts.
So the probe that was sent over a month ago, was it the work of the Sect Master of the Demon Spirit Sect?
The current her must be having a tough time!
A tinge of irony adorned the face underneath Liang Hui’s mask.
And, the Spirit Gate was certainly not playing the role of a good guy in this situation.
Although the Sect Master of the Demon Spirit Sect was considered extremely powerful, to storm the Spirit Gate’s main entrance and abduct the heavily guarded Liang Si was a far reach.
Yet this piece of secret news had somehow spread widely.
Is this meant to completely sever any potential pathways I might have to join the Demonic Path in what you suspect to be my future memory?
But you’ve succeeded, he indeed has developed a genuine loathing for the Demon Spirit Sect.
