55: Mo Xuancang's grandson died!

As soon as Chen De entered Tianfeng City, he experienced the feeling of the whole world being draped in white.

White mourning banners hung everywhere, and from time to time, he could hear cries coming from somewhere.

Although the sun was bright, it made people feel a bone-chilling cold.

“Hey girl, your husband died, didn't he?”

“Ah, ha ha ha!”

Chen De looked over in the direction of the sound.

He saw that it was a man teasing a woman dressed in mourning clothes.

The woman's appearance was quite pretty, and wearing mourning clothes seemed to add a certain charm, no wonder she was being teased.

However, Chen De noticed that the passers-by seemed accustomed to such sights.

Ever since Tianfeng City's defeat in Vortex Forest, such incidents had been happening daily.

Many martial artists' husbands and fathers had died, and there were always people eyeing their widows.

The woman's eyes were slightly red, but she didn't respond to the man teasing her. Instead, she covered her face and continued to weep.

A widow? Playing quite wild, Chen De was too lazy to disturb their fun.

Such things were too common.

At this moment, seeing that no one came to stop him, the man knew he was safe.

So, he disregarded everything and picked up the woman in mourning clothes, rushing into the house.

The woman, draped over the man's shoulder, struggled frantically, hitting the man's back and crying out, “Let me go, let me go, you beast!”

The man ignored her and quickly reached the door of the woman's house.

The woman evidently knew what was about to happen, so she struggled even more fiercely, continuously crying and pleading, “Please, please let me go, I still have a baby who just turned one month old…”

The man ignored her, only rushing into the room impatiently.

The woman helplessly called for help from the people around her, but they acted as if they hadn't heard, and not a single person responded.

The woman cried out in despair, but it was to no avail.

Finally, she was dragged into the room by the man.

“There really is one?”

As soon as he entered, he heard the man exclaim in surprise.

Immediately, something wrapped in cloth, crying out, was thrown out, and it stopped crying as soon as it hit the ground.

After doing all this, the man began to get down to business.

Chen De knew that such a scene was not just happening here, but throughout the city at this very moment.

In war, there are only losers, no winners.

If Silver Scale Rhino King's fate was so tragic, how could the residents of Tianfeng City be any different?

Unfortunately, these things were not for them to decide.

In this world, what the strong want to do, the weak don't even have the right to resist!

Seeing this scene, Chen De thought to himself, then left without delay, quickly departing from the area.

Soon after, the man walked out, but the woman did not.

The people around, seeing that only the man came out, all felt a bit strange.

Logically, the woman should have come out to take a look.

The man, seeing everyone looking at him, immediately shouted at them, “What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen someone play with a woman?”

Everyone was scared away.

Seeing that the man had already left, out of curiosity, everyone walked into the house.

Upon entering the house, they saw the woman from before lying on the bed, her clothes disheveled, her lower garments torn off.

Her legs were spread open, and she lay motionless, her eyes wide open, her neck severely twisted to one side, clearly broken.

No one needed to think to know who did it.

Sadly, now, no one could seek justice for them.

...

Chen De walked around the city, suddenly not knowing where he should go.

Although he had planned everything well, it was his first time here, and there were indeed some things he didn't know how to do!

Chen De knew what he came to do, but how to do it was a problem.

He was unfamiliar with the martial artist world and didn't know its basic framework.

The experience Chen De gained from Zhang Li was too superficial; although he was a martial artist, his realm was too low, and there were many things he couldn't access.

Not only Zhang Li, but also Yang Wen and Li Mang were the same.

Their understanding of the martial artist world was still only on the surface.

Alas, what is learned from books is always shallow; one must practice to truly understand!

Suddenly, a crazy child ran up to Chen De and shouted, “Mom is dead, killed by a beast…”

Chen De was startled, and the system didn't give him any prompts. Seeing that it was just an ordinary child, Chen De didn't take it to heart.

At this moment, a man of about thirty years old walked over and quickly apologized to Chen De, explaining that their family had just experienced a tragedy, and the child was stimulated and went crazy, hoping Chen De wouldn't mind.

Chen De, of course, didn't mind. He wasn't some bloodthirsty beast; he wouldn't attack ordinary people unless they blocked his way or offered him no benefit.

Moreover, it was just a child; how could one lay a hand on him?

He, Chen De, would never lay a hand on a child in this life!

This was the guarantee of a moral person!

Beyond doubt!

Chen De didn't make things difficult for the father and son. He even greeted them and watched them leave.

Seeing the father and son enter the house, Chen De was about to leave when he saw a group of people rush in aggressively.

Ah!

Soon, two screams came from inside the house.

Afterward, that group of people walked out, laughing and chatting.

Some even joked, “As soon as I entered, the man thought I was from the City Lord's Mansion and asked if there was any news from the City Lord's Mansion and when his wife's revenge would be exacted.

I said, 'You'll get your revenge right away, just look at this first,' then, while he wasn't paying attention, I chopped off his head with one strike.

You wouldn't believe how incredulous his eyes looked when his head rolled on the ground.”

Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this.

Immediately, someone else shared their own story, “And that little crazy kid, do you know him?

I found him the most annoying, muttering who knows what.

I split him in two with one strike, and after a scream…”

Someone nearby immediately interrupted, “I know about that; I even participated.

That little crazy kid didn't die after being chopped once; he dragged his half body and crawled all over the house, making the whole place bloody.

So, I gave him another strike, and guess what?

That little crazy kid screamed again and was finished off by me.”

Everyone laughed, “That's quite interesting, one scream per chop. We should have played with the man like that too; then we could have had both father and son crawling all over the house. Just thinking about it is fun.”

“It's all your fault; you ruined everyone's fun!”

Suddenly, the conversation shifted, and they all started blaming the person who spoke first.

That person, naturally, wouldn't stand for it and immediately retorted.

The group of people talked and laughed, gradually walking further away…

What a mess, this Tianfeng City!

Chen De shook his head helplessly and sighed.

Chen De felt that to quickly understand the situation here, he still needed to find someone powerful and influential!

With that, Chen De headed towards the city center.

...

“Ah, how boring. Grandpa went into seclusion again, and no one is here to play with me.”

Mo Xuancang's young grandson leisurely wandered through the city, looking for fun.

Beside him were several servants from the Mo Residence, but they were all only at the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Realm.

Clearly, he had snuck out.

Walking into an alley, he suddenly saw a man with a sallow face, looking as if he had kidney deficiency, walk by.

His eyes darted, and he instantly thought of something fun!

So he turned back and looked at the man with the kidney deficiency.

This man was Chen De. Having just walked past, Chen De also noticed this young boy.

Seeing how he was dressed, he was clearly from a wealthy and influential family, not an ordinary person.

People from such a background must have been instilled with the concept of martial artists very early on, right?

It seems the guarantee can still be a bit flexible!

So, Chen De also turned back and cast a benevolent gaze upon Mo Xuancang's young grandson.

Their eyes met directly!

...

Inside the Mo Residence.

“Patriarch, Patriarch, something bad has happened!”

In seclusion, Mo Xuancang heard someone calling out to him from outside.

He was a bit angry; hadn't he instructed that no one was allowed to disturb him during his seclusion?

At this moment, the person outside suddenly shouted,

“It's bad, Patriarch! The young master's soul tablet… it's shattered!”

Hearing this, Mo Xuancang's heart skipped a beat.

“What,…”
