The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 6 — Lian Haocun VS 10 Assassins (2)
Realizing the opponent's goal, Shen Wenhuan released Nascent Soul stage pressure. The black-clothed assassin who was left 9 people was instantly fixated on the spot.
The pressure of the Nascent Soul stage made the black-clothed assassins who were on average a Foundation Building stage and one Core Formation stage feel bearing a heavy mountain that left them breathless. Shen Wenhuan looked at the assassins coldly and mercilessly in his eyes.
“Who ordered you?” Shen Wenhuan's question confirmed his guess.
Lian Haocun who knew that the matter would soon be finished rushed to Shen Wenhuan's place after shaking his sword to make it clean of blood. Then Lian Haocun put the black sword into the storage ring that Shen Wenhuan gave when Lian Haocun was 5 years old.
Lian Huanran was seen behind Shen Wenhuan somewhat trembling, Lian Haocun understood the situation. After all Lian Huanran had never faced a dangerous situation like this before and was a level pressure higher than her even though it was only one level.
The assassins looked terrified and not a few shed tears, even though they knew there was a possibility that the level of the opponent was higher than theirs, they ignored him because their missions rarely failed and their numbers were more numerous. Shen Wenhuan who did not hear the answer increased the pressure and made a sound with a thick killing intent,
“Who rules you?”
The assassins looked even more frightened than before, immediately one of the black-clothed assassins who had been hiding gave up and shouted in a trembling voice,
“To-family Li!!”
Shen Wenhuan snorted coldly and left without releasing any pressure on the assassins, followed by Lian Haocun who from start to finish was indifferent and Lian Huanran who looked rather pale behind her black hood. After a considerable distance, Shen Wenhuan released the oppressive pressure on the assassins.
After walking for a long time, in a place that still did not have many people Lian Huanran stopped walking with a pale face and tears on both sides of her eyes that Lian Huanran was trying to endure which was not very visible due to the hood of the robe black, ich,
“Sorry, I'm useless.”
Lian Haocun looked at Lian Huanran and her indifferent and cold eyes were slightly warmer.
Shen Wenhuan patted Lian Huanran on the shoulder and said, “We'll talk about it at the inn later.”
The three of them walked again and immediately headed to the inn where they had previously stayed. The three of them gathered in Shen Wenhuan's room. Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran took off the black robes worn to disguise their identities followed by Shen Wenhuan who also removed his silver mask.
Sitting on a hard wooden bench, Shen Wenhuan said, “Good work, Haocun. Actually I just wanted to test you and the result was a bit unexpected.”
A cold tone sounded at the end of Shen Wenhuan's sentence. Lian Haocun did not react to anything with Shen Wenhuan's cold tone, like he had not heard it. Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran remained motionless from their starting place as they walked into Shen Wenhuan's room.
“Huanran, your cultivation is not as fast as Haocun and this is the first time you have faced this situation so it is natural that you experience panic, but you must be calm in all situations. I know the pressure of a stage 2 Foundation Building cultivator has a big effect on you, but that's no reason to lose your composure.
Lian Huanran nodded her head softly with her somewhat trembling voice, “Sorry, Guru.”
Shen Wenhuan nodded and said warmly, “Good.”
“Then, Haocun. You're totally beyond my expectations. You didn't lose your cool at all when surrounded by three assassins, but.”.
Shen Wenhuan sighed and said in a sharp and angry tone, “Is this your first murder?”
Lian Haocun was a bit silent for a moment due to Shen Wenhuan's question but he still looked at Shen Wenhuan boldly and began to reply, “Ya.”
Lian Haocun's voice was stable, there was not the slightest jitters to the point that it seemed he was unaware of Shen Wenhuan's anger.
“When? And how many?”
Lian Haocun did not respond to Shen Wenhuan's question and instead looked directly into Shen Wenhuan's eyes filled with anger, a cold aura but also a family's tenderness and affection.
While Lian Huanran was a bit confused, 'Sister is almost always with me at all times. When did he ever commit murder? I never even smelled the slightest stench of blood when Brother came out. Although it's been covered it shouldn't be as easy as it's gone.' Inner Lian Huanran.
Shen Wenhuan was somewhat stunned as his disciple, Lian Haocun stared directly at him who could be said to be disrespectful and overly bold, but saw Lian Haocun's eyes that were as innocent as a baby child and separated from the world, he was stunned again for a moment.
Finally he just sighed, “You two rest. Tomorrow morning we will go to the Yama.” Mountains
Lian Haocun followed Lian Huanran immediately out of Shen Wenhuan's room and walked back to their respective rooms located next to each other and not too far from Shen Wenhuan's room.
On the way to the room, Lian Huanran spoke to her brother, who was,
“Sister, when did you ever kill? I'm pretty sure you never killed a long time ago. Almost every time, I follow you.”
Lian Haocun looked at Lian Huanran's curious eyes and felt grateful that she neither feared nor hated him.
Then Lian Haocun replied briefly in a flat tone as usual, “It has been a very long time.”
Feeling dissatisfied, Lian Huanran tried asking again, but they had already reached their room. Before he could ask, Lian Haocun had already entered his room. Lian Huanran who had no chance to ask snorted in annoyance before entering his room.
