Chapter 144 Awakening
However, as soon as Big Landlord had finished speaking, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
Looking down, she saw a Dagger embedded in her stomach.
In the farmhouse, children as young as seven or eight years old had already started carrying knives.
Her face filled with shock as she looked at the child, seemingly unable to believe it.
The child she had saved at the cost of being stabbed in the back herself had just stabbed her.
"I killed a Demon, I killed a Demon, I don't need to go to Hell!" The child laughed loudly.
Just as Big Landlord was distracted, pu pu!
Several knives chopped into her body simultaneously.
But Big Landlord's gaze remained fixed on that child.
At this moment, the emotional pain far surpassed the physical pain.
You should know, this child was A'Gui's child.
Lost in the mountains, she had searched for three days and nights before finding him.
Carrying the child out of the mountains, her feet were worn raw.
Pu pu pu!
Big Landlord's back, shoulders, and arms received several more stabs.
But she remained expressionless.
Seeing that Big Landlord didn't resist anymore, a villager even raised a Dagger in hand, aiming to pierce Big Landlord's chest.
Su Chen's expression finally began to fade slowly, becoming completely expressionless.
If the members of Reverse Dragon were here, they would know that when Death God's face lacked any expression, that was when Death God truly descended.
Pu!
Blood splashed, but the person's Dagger did not hit Big Landlord's chest.
It was caught by a hand.
The man turned his head, only to see an indifferent gaze.
The next moment, his body flew backward like a cannonball.
The chest caved in, evidently beyond saving.
After killing a villager, Su Chen's figure flashed, arriving in front of the villagers who were chopping at Big Landlord's back and had yet to pull out their knives.
Both fists struck simultaneously.
Pu!
Two sounds rang out almost at the same time.
The most up‑to‑date version is on M4VLEMP4YR.
Su Chen's fists pierced directly through the chests of two villagers.
Bloody fists emerged from the backs of the two men.
To punch through a person's body; wasn't that too terrifying?
"Big Landlord!" Su Chen reached out to support Big Landlord, who was still in a daze, and then his gaze icily swept over the villagers who had been scared senseless.
[Demon, he's also a Demon, kill him quick!] This scene terrified two Ghost Masters so much that they immediately incited the villagers to attack Su Chen.
Su Chen's lips curled into a sinister smile, "Demon? No, I am Death God!"
That smile sent chills down the spine.
Where would Ghost Master dare to stay, they turned tail to run.
However, they had only run a few steps when they saw Su Chen standing in front of them, blocking their path.
"Let's fight!" The two Ghost Masters knew they couldn't escape; their only choice was to fight desperately.
One of the Ghost Masters pulled out a submachine gun from his black robe and aimed it at Su Chen.
"Kid, I admit you're formidable, but no matter how formidable you are, can you stop bullets?" The man in the black robe sneered.
The MP5 submachine gun actually didn't pack a great amount of power; it might even be slightly less powerful than a handgun.
But its firing rate was very fast.
At such a close range, it could turn Su Chen into a sieve.
"Die!" Ghost Master pulled the trigger at Su Chen.
But the bullet did not strike Su Chen—it...
Hit himself instead!
The moment he pulled the trigger, Su Chen had already grabbed his wrist, turned the gun around, and aimed it at his own chest.
Pop pop pop!
Bullets spewed out like hornets, then tore into Ghost Master's chest.
He tried to release the trigger, but a finger was firmly pressing it down, emptying the entire magazine until the gunfire ceased.
By that time, Ghost Master's chest was completely blown apart.
Casually letting go of Ghost Master's body, it fell straight to the ground.
As Su Chen's gaze turned to another Ghost Master, that person's body trembled incessantly, a pungent stench spreading in the air.
He was actually scared to the point of wetting himself.
"Die!" Su Chen let out a sharp yell at that Ghost Master.
The Ghost Master's eyes bulged, and he toppled over rigidly.
Scared to death by Su Chen, literally.
At this moment, Su Chen seemed scarcely human.
All the villagers were quaking in fear.
Was this the same Su Chen they knew, the benevolent brother who would sacrifice himself to save others?
Covered in blood, Su Chen walked step by step toward the child who had been scared stiff, then picked him up.
"Ah, you're a demon, let me go, don't kill me!" The child screamed and cried in terror.
There was not an ounce of pity on Su Chen's face.
If it were not for the Big Landlord searching the mountains for three days and nights, finally carrying the child out on his back,
This little one might have perished from starvation if not devoured by wild animals.
The Big Landlord saved him, and yet, ungratefully, he stabbed Big Landlord with a Dagger.
So vicious at such a young age, a person who repays kindness with enmity, it would be better to end his life early before he becomes an even greater menace when grown.
"Su Chen, stop!" Just then, Big Landlord finally reacted.
Although she was heartbroken and furious, after all, that was just a child.
She could not stand by and watch Su Chen kill the child.
"A person like this who repays kindness with enmity, what's the difference between him and an animal? What is his use?" Su Chen cast a cold gaze over the terrified villagers.
"Enough, he is just a child who doesn't understand anything. Su Chen, I am begging you, please let him go..." Dragging her bleeding body, Big Landlord approached Su Chen.
With a look of pleading in Big Landlord's eyes, Su Chen's heart finally softened.
"Brother Su Chen, please let A'San go. If you must kill, kill me instead; he's still just a child..." A'Gui rushed over and fell to his knees before Su Chen, weeping and begging.
"He's a child that doesn't know any better, but what about you? Are you also children? Don't you know what kind of person Big Landlord is?"
Seeing Big Landlord, bloodied and on the brink of collapsing yet still pleading for A'Gui's child, everyone finally came to their senses.
If Big Landlord were truly possessed by a Demon, how could she have gone to rescue A'Gui's child when being attacked?
Why would she be pleading for A'Gui's child now?
"We're sorry, Big Landlord, we were wrong... We shouldn't have believed Ghost Master's words..."
"From now on, in Yangquan Village, there'll be only Big Landlord, no Ghost Master, or Great Yin Master!"
The villagers dropped their weapons one after another.
Seeing this scene, Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In truth, he never intended to kill the child.
He just wanted to awaken everyone with this method.
Big Landlord regaining the villagers' devotion was certainly a good thing.
"A'Duo, where's your Sister Lin?" Su Chen softly wiped the tears from the little girl's face and asked gently.
A'Duo's body tensed up suddenly, as if remembering something, and she said in a panic, "Sister Lin was taken to Tongluo Village by Ghost Master's men, they said they are going to sacrifice Sister Lin..."
