Chapter 425: Chapter 394 Threat_1

Regardless of the group of followers or his own clothing and demeanor, it’s apparent that the young man in the purple robe is no ordinary individual.

The villagers accompanying Xu Mu, although carefully selected by the village head, are after all, just ordinary people. Faced with the supremacy of the youth, they dared not to resist.

Now, upon seeing Xu Mu suddenly blocking the youth, they were all scared, frozen in place, unsure of how to react.

“How dare you block my path!”

The youth in the purple robe shouted angrily, swung his riding whip, and lashed out viciously at Xu Mu.

The whip tore through the air, making a crackling sound that revealed its formidable power. An ordinary person struck by such a whip would likely burst open on the spot.

This lash was aimed at Xu Mu’s face. The malicious intent of the youth in purple was patent.

Faced with this aggressive attack, Xu Mu stepped back half a step, ingeniously dodging it. He then smiled and spoke, “If you want to take something away, shouldn’t you at least give an explanation?”

“How dare a lowly commoner ask for an explanation from me!” the youth in the purple robe yelled angrily. “You lot, butcher him for me!”

A few armored soldiers leapt from their horses instantly. Drawing their blades with a clang, they surrounded Xu Mu.

The soldiers’ cold eyes showed no mercy as they swung their blades at Xu Mu.

At this, Xu Mu’s gaze turned icy. He didn’t want to cause trouble, but it seemed they were determined to end his life.

Since they were seeking death, he wouldn’t show them any courtesy either.

He took a step, dodged an incoming attack, and snatched a long knife from one of them in a swift move.

This series of actions was as fast as lightning. Before anyone had time to react, a full moon-like blade flashed across their eyes.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The sound of the blade slicing through flesh echoed. The soldiers who had surrounded Xu Mu clutched their throats and fell to the ground one by one.

Only then did the crowd react.

“What are you standing there for? Kill him, quickly!”

Fury and shock flashed in the youth’s eyes as he yelled loudly.

The armored soldiers were not driven by fear. Upon receiving the order, they all charged at Xu Mu. The charioted guards, however, seemed hesitant and fell behind a bit.

Since they’d already started fighting, Xu Mu was naturally not going to be polite. His blade moved so quickly that no one could see the gleam, and the soldiers who had just rushed up fell down one after another, their eyes wide open and blood spraying from their necks.

The guards who were half a step behind were scared stiff, standing still, their bodies shaking. They neither dared to go forward nor retreat.

“You’re quite daring, do you know who he is?”

The head of the guards shouted. However, he couldn’t conceal the fear in his eyes.

“You damned bastard, how dare you kill my people! I’ll skin you alive, shred your bones, and put all your family into slavery. The males will be exiled to the border, and the females will be lifelong whores!”

The youth in the purple robe seemed completely oblivious to the change in scenario, and continued threatening Xu Mu loudly.

The guard leader twitched his mouth and could only feel his mind buzzing.

He knew the young man was a direct descendant of a big family in the county city. He was famously arrogant and unreasonable, and it was only because he had offended someone from another elite family that he was sent to this small place.

He had thought the youth was just arrogant, but had never imagined that he was an imbecile.

Their most powerful fighters had been effortlessly wiped out by Xu Mu. The difference between them trying to deal with Xu Mu and committing suicide was minor.

In such a situation, they were virtually defenseless. He never would have thought that the young man would still dare to threaten others at this point.

If he had known the youth was such an idiot, he would never have tried to curry favor with him.

The guard chief regretted everything now, but unfortunately, there was no way to turn back time.

“Heh Heh!”

Seeing the youth in purple robe showing no fear and still threatening him loudly, Xu Mu couldn’t help but laugh.

He never thought that there could be such oddballs in the world. Could this guy have a ‘suicide system’ or something?

Still wearing a smile, Xu Mu held his knife and walked toward the youth in the purple robe.

Although the guard leader was scared witless, looking pale and feeling icy cold, he bravely blocked Xu Mu’s path toward the youth.

He knew that if something happened to the youth, not only would he lose his life, but his family might also suffer.

“He is from Kang Family in County city. If you dare to hurt him, no matter where you run to, you won’t be able to escape! Not only you, but all those who are related to you will be doomed!”

Putting forth the youth’s prestige, the guard leader was hoping to intimidate Xu Mu into submission.

“What are you dog men doing? Go kill him!”

The youth in the purple robe did not appreciate the good intention, he gave a kick to the guard leader and berated the guards angrily.

The group of guards, having seen the bodies lying on the ground, did not dare to move forward. But knowing the identity of the youth in purple robe, they did not dare to run away either. They could only stand there, undecided whether to advance or retreat.

Xu Mu couldn’t be bothered to waste his words on them anymore. With a fierce stomp of his foot, he lunged himself towards the purple-robed youth with a swipe of his sword.

“Stop!”

The head of the guards shouted, not daring to watch.

“How dare you!”

A thunderous roar came from the city side. A figure was seen moving at high speed, uncannily forming a giant wolf shadow.

“A wild warrior!! Thank God!”

The head guard face lit up with joy.

On the other side, the youth in the purple robe also gleamed with excitement, becoming more and more reckless.

“Commander Lu is here! Now you’re dead meat! Ah!”

Before the youth in the purple robe could finish, Xu Mu’s blade had descended, not taking his head but cutting off his shoulder.

He did so not because he was soft-hearted, but because he felt the youth still had a role to play, so he spared his life for the time being.

However, that spared him death but not injury. After cutting off one of his arms, Xu Mu didn’t hesitate to direct his blade to the youth’s other arm.

“You! How dare you hurt me? I am going to kill you! Kill you!”

The youth in the purple robe clutched his severed arm, roaring like a madman.

“Bastard! Stop immediately!” The incoming Commander Lu, seeing Xu Mu daring to make a move, was also furious. His speed increased, and the original indistinct giant wolf shadow suddenly became much more solid.

Owooo!

The giant wolf shadow howled to the sky. Its sound was intimidating. The villagers who had come with Xu Mu were frightened and fell to the ground.

They couldn’t comprehend how things had suddenly taken such a turn.

As the center of the whirlwind, Xu Mu, however, ignored the imminent threat. He made two more consecutive cuts, severing the youth’s other arm and one left leg.

“Bastard! Stop it right now!”
