Chapter 64: The Difficult Path of Righteousness

Inside the carriage, a cloaked woman felt the sudden halt of the carriage, followed by a series of cursing ahead.New novel chapters are published on

This is robbery! Hand over everything you have!

The woman frowned and turned her head to look ahead, where she saw a bald man and two lackeys standing menacingly in the middle of the road.

Six-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level)

The woman immediately recognized the strength of the three individuals and couldnt help but feel somewhat helpless.

She had decided to take a carriage ride because she rarely left her sect and wanted to spend some time outside to relax. Yet, she ended up encountering this situation.

Only these three would dare to rob a cultivator at the Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) rank. They are the only ones in the entire history.

As the woman pondered such thoughts, the three men had already reached the back of the carriage, glaring fiercely at the woman sitting inside.

Hey! Im talking to you! Dont pretend to be deaf!

The woman glanced at the bald robber who was shouting, her gaze calm beneath the hood of her cloak. Slowly, her jade-like hand rose.

Since they had encountered each other, she might as well take care of them. Consider it a good deed to the weaker masses.

Her fingers gradually emitted a faint green Dou Qi. The Dou Qi split into three forks, aiming at the foreheads of the three robbers. With just a gentle touch, their lives could be taken silently.

However, as the woman was about to act, a black figure suddenly smashed into her surroundings, standing between her and the three robbers. The green Dou Qi in the womans hand receded silently, and she furrowed her beautiful eyes, observing the sudden appearance of this object.

It was a black giant sword?

The woman couldnt confirm, as it resembled a sword but lacked any sharpness. At best, it could be considered a blunt weapon.

Who would use such a strange object as a weapon?

At this moment, a figure swiftly followed the black giant sword, flashing in front of the three robbers. As the woman looked at the youthful figure, her eyes flickered with surprise.

This is a two-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level)?

The woman raised an eyebrow, filled with disbelief.

A two-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) couldnt possess such speed. Even a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) at the Fighter rank couldnt be this fast!

Is it a certain body movement combat technique? Or is it a family secret technique?

While the woman pondered in her heart, the three men, who saw the young figure appear before them, felt their hearts clench, and their faces were filled with shock.

This young man was none other than Xiao Yan, who had just left!

Arent you gone?!

To her, this level of cruelty was nothing special. She was accustomed to even more brutal methods.

The crucial issue here was that this level of cruelty was not Xiao Yans intention. It was an act driven by that black aura, making him act devoid of reason, resembling the instinct of a beast, just like what happened when he invaded the Jia Lie family in Wutan City.

But this time, Xiao Yan should be able to thoroughly understand.

There was a vast difference between following the righteous path and advocating for the righteous path.

The woman on the carriage tightly furrowed her beautiful eyebrows, watching Xiao Yans figure.

A two-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) wielding an extraordinarily heavy and peculiar giant sword, delivering a strike that crushed the heads of three six-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) into pieces.

Moreover, the woman could tell that Xiao Yan hadnt used Dou Qi or any secret techniques. It was solely the power of his physical body!

If she hadnt seen it with her own eyes, she would never believe it.

Fundamentally, this was against common sense! It should never happen!

But now, this illogical event was happening right in front of her!

Who exactly was this young man?!

Just as the woman was filled with astonishment and doubt, Xiao Yans impulsive mind gradually regained clarity. The crimson light in his eyes quietly dissipated, and the black aura pervading his body receded.

With his sanity restored, Xiao Yan clenched the Heavy Black Ruler, looking down at the three headless corpses on the ground, a sense of desolation filling his heart.

Why cant I walk the righteous path?

I know you wont listen to the reason I speak. You believe more in the law of the jungle.

But I I did it anyway

I used my strength to destroy everything you possessed right before your eyes. I used my strength to make you completely unable to resist me, to make you unable to refute what I say.

Arent these punishments enough?

Xiao Yan forcefully embedded the Heavy Black Ruler into the ground, looking at the three headless corpses, his eyes brimming with despair for the future.

You, them, and all those who follow the law of the jungle.

What do you want me to do before youre willing to abandon the concept of survival of the fittest and walk the righteous path?

Is it really so difficult for you to walk this righteous path

Xiao Yan, a sixteen-year-old youth fueled by fervor, wanted to promote his own righteous path.

After just a week of traveling away from home, he deeply experienced what it meant to be lost.
