Chapter 197 - A Tragedy

“Eh ah!”

In the countryside, the number of Paladins running away was decreasing. Once they were caught up, the terrifying flute sound in the rear would cut them to pieces.

“Rumble!”

A loud bang came, and a golden figure like God suddenly appeared in front of them.

He turned around slowly, revealing his eyes as if he was looking at the dead and saying coldly, “Now that you’re here, go to hell!”

Then, he made a Break Heaven Fist of Blood Sea, rushing toward the enemies in front of him with numerous blood vigor, crushing all the Paladins like sweeping up dead leaves.

“Boss, all the remnants have been killed.”

Chu He flew over from behind.

“Well, I’ve set a barrier at Allen’s house, and there seem to be some movements over there now. My intuition tells me to get back as soon as possible.” Wang Bugui made a frown.

“Then, I’ll send a message to everyone to let them go there together.” Chu He said.

Wang Bugui nodded and then turned to the headquarters of the union. It was full of the bodies of Paladins there. He came there and burned them all with aura.

“Brother Bugui!”

A tender voice came. Kathy ran to Wang Bugui in panic.

“Are you okay?” Wang Bugui turned his head around and asked.

“I, I’m okay. But…” Kathy moved her eyes around. It seemed that she dared not to face him.

Seeing that, Wang Bugui frowned more. He said, “Just say it.”

“Allen has sent back the state of the mission just now,” Kathy whispered.

“What’s the result?” Wang Bugui’s brows became smooth. Since Allen could pass the result back, he must be safe.

“I received it two minutes ago. The mission… failed. ” Kathy lowered her head.

Wang Bugui’s eyes were wide open when he heard the words. He frowned again and urged, “Tell me, how is he?”

A trace of loss flashed in Kathy’s eyes. She took out two gray hunter cards. When someone applied for being a hunter, he must be registered with a card, and it will be associated with the hunter’s business card.

It was similar to the eastern soul lamp. As long as the hunter died, the card would go out forever.

Wang Bugui was stunned to see that. He then trembled to take these two cards. Grabbing them tightly, he said coldly, “I have asked them not to go!”

“Chu He, hurry to Allen’s house. I’ll catch up with you later!”

“Okay!” With a nod, Chu He mobilized all his spiritual power to rush to Allen’s residence at full speed. He, at the same time, sent a message to the members of the Blood Moon Hunters with his mind, “Everyone, go to Allen’s house! Hurry up!”

Wang Bugui took the two hunter cards, retracting them and saying, “Kathy, the Sanctuary launched an attack this time to hold us back, didn’t they? I’ll support you if we need to make a concession.”

“But we can’t yield every time. Next time, please listen to me more. I won’t harm you.”

Upon finishing the words, he turned and left. But as he just stepped out, he was held by a cold little hand. So, he turned back slowly.

“I want to go with you. Allen was killed because of me. I need to see him and take responsibility.” Kathy whispered.

“Okay, hold on to me.” With a nod, Wang Bugui carried Kathy in his arms.

Then, he seemed to think of something and looked back. Lyon said to him, “I can have myself get there. After all, I’m also an S-class hunter.”

“Then, I’ll go first. Catch me up as soon as possible.” Wang Bugui replied.

Seeing Lyon’s nod, he performed the Hell Step to the extreme and jumped to the sky. After a few flashes, he reached thousands of meters away.

Kathy buried her head in Wang Bugui’s chest and hugged his neck tightly. Two minutes later, they had passed more than two hundred miles and came to the below of Allen’s house.

“Whiz!”

After landing, Wang Bugui put Kathy down and found that all the other hunters had also arrived.

“Why do you stay here without going upstairs?” Wang Bugui asked.

“Boss, they…” Zhao Changge stretched out his hand but didn’t know what to say. He could only make a way to Wang Bugui.

All the other people behind him also moved their steps, looking lost. Seeing this, Wang Bugui made a frown and walked forward slowly.

Suddenly, he seemed to have a feeling and covered Kathy’s face immediately. But she stubbornly pushed away from this hand. And what she saw the next moment was unforgettable for her.

There was a body with a big hole in his chest lying on the front ground. His head had rolled to the side. His eyes didn’t close but stared at the front, and his hand also pointed at the direction.

In that direction were his wife he had concerned and a pile of boxes. Looking carefully, they found the broken parts of Merry were in the boxes.

Kathy and Wang Bugui slowly walked forward and found there was a beautiful head whose golden soft hair was dyed red with blood in the box at the top.

“Bang!”

Kathy knelt feebly on the bloody ground. She wanted to reach out to touch the two bodies, but her little hands couldn’t stop shaking.

There seemed to be two souls in her heart. One asked her to reach out to touch and see the crimes she had committed indirectly, and the other told her to stop reaching out because of fear.

“No, no! Whoo…”

Tears like peas finally flew down from Kathy’s wet red eyes. Tears dropping into the blood splashed small ripples. And her heart was finally broken down by the cruel reality.

“It was a crime I committed. It was me who killed you…”

In a trance, she kept repeating the two sentences. Wang Bugui walked past her and said, “Elsa is their daughter. She doesn’t know about this yet.”

When Kathy heard that, her eyes opened wide. She also lost her parents, which was the pain she would never forget. Now, she had put such pain on another little girl?

Wang Bugui didn’t wait for her reply and turned back to his fellows, “You take their bodies back and bury them in the Blood Hunter Manor. Yueyan, Ning Zhe, release their souls from purgatory.”

Leng Yueyan nodded slowly. Ning Zhe put his hands together, saying, “What a pity.” Zhao Changge and the others began to collect the bodies and rushed back to the Blood Hunter Manor.

“Chu He, take her back too.” Wang Bugui added.

Chu He nodded, went to Kathy, who was kneeling on the ground, and picked her up. This little girl was supposed to be very beautiful, but she looked dull at the moment.

“Alas!” He shook his head and flew straight to the sky. Searching Lyon with his telekinesis, he joined Lyon and went to the manor together with him.

Only Wang Bugui was here now. He looked at the stairs in front of him and plodded. Step by step, he finally reached the door and slowly knocked on it.

He, at the same time, try to make a soft voice, “Elsa, I’m back.”

Hearing that, Elsa, who squatted in the corner, suddenly raised her head and ran to the door desperately. Her tears spilled all over the floor. When she tried his best to open the door, her tears welled up again.

Whom she saw was Wang Bugui. She threw herself into his warm arms and sobbed, “Big brother, you finally come back! There were bad people. Whoo…”

Wang Bugui’s heart was melted in an instant. He stroked her head and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

“Okay!”

Elsa nodded vigorously in Wang Bugui’s arms, raised her head again, blinked her big eyes, and said, “Big brother, where are my mother and father? They said they were going to find you.”

“I heard a terrible voice outside, and my father was angry! But mother didn’t say a word. Why? I’m afraid…”

When Wang Bugui heard that, his heart thumped as if someone had severely seized it. He didn’t know how to treat this lovely little girl.

He couldn’t bear to tell her the news that her parents had died miserably. If he said to her that, her beautiful and pure heart would be shattered.

He would rather be pierced by thousands of swords than tell the truth so cruelly.

“Big brother, what’s the matter with you?” Elsa touched Wang Bugui’s face with her little hand and asked with her head askew.

“Elsa, I’ll take you somewhere.” Hesitating for a long time, Wang Bugui said those words off and on.

“Okay.” Elsa nodded her head hard.

Holding her in his arms, Wang Bugui flew to the sky with the Hell Step and shuttled in the sea of clouds at full speed.

“Ah! Big brother, you can fly,” Elsa shouted in surprise.

But Wang Bugui didn’t answer her, because he was in a trance at the moment.

After a while, the two reached the Blood Hunter Manor. Wang Bugui took the little girl straight to the forest, where the Blood Hunters were buried. Near the monument, there were two new tombs.

The names of Elsa’s parents were engraved on the cold tombstones. When she saw all this, she seemed to understand something. She suddenly lost her mind and sat on the ground.

Then, she turned her head and asked in a trembling voice, “Big brother… what happened to my father and mother?”

This weak voice, like a sharp knife, stabbed into everyone’s heart. The little girl then put her eyes at Ning Zhe and Leng Yueyan, who were chanting sutras.

Then, she looked at all the people around her. When they saw her helpless eyes, they couldn’t help but take a step back and bower their heads in shame.

She, at last, put her eyes on Wang Bugui again. Wang Bugui clenched his fists hard, and golden blood had already flowed out. He finally set up his mind.

He looked at the little girl in front of him with an distressing look and said, “Elsa, your parents, have already, gone to heaven.”
