In the blink of an eye, the purple scar covered the entire tip of the sword.
It was a strange sight.
At that moment, a voice rang out from the sky. Then, a shadow descended from the sky.
In that instant, the Traceless Sword began to vibrate, almost as if it had sensed something. It let out a clear hum.
With a swoosh, it flew toward the shadow.
"Die!" A low voice came from the mouth of the shadow. Then, a silver waterfall appeared in the sky, almost touching the sky.
Within the silver waterfall, there was also a demonic purple glow.
High mountains and flowing water.
In the midst of his shock, the deputy who had just tied up Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian looked up. His face paled.
He could feel how sharp that demonic purple light was. It felt like it was going to pierce through everything, causing his heart to tremble.
Subconsciously, he wanted to retreat …
However, his body felt as if it was being bound by something. There was a terrifying gravitational force above his head, preventing him from moving. It was almost as if he was standing under a huge waterfall.
"Ah!" The deputy let out a cry of despair. Then, he felt something penetrating his forehead.
The world in front of him began to blur.
Vaguely, he seemed to see a young man wearing a short shirt made of animal skin walking towards him. The young man also held a sword in his hand. The tip of the sword had turned completely purple.
"Fang... Fang Zhengzhi?!"
Fang Zhengzhi stopped beside the deputy. He did not reply to the deputy's dying words. Instead, he knelt down on both knees, facing Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian.
"Father. Mother... I have let you down! "
…
The morning sun shone on the Northern Mountain Village, causing the village at the foot of the mountain to be stained with a tinge of gold. Amidst the gold, there was a tinge of red.
It was blood. The blood that stained the soil.
All of the villagers, including Zhang Yangping and Zhang Li, stared blankly at the kneeling Fang Zhengzhi. Everything had happened too quickly.
The black faced general's blade radiance.
Then, a sword blocked the saber light. Next. A waterfall appeared out of thin air, and a deputy general was already lying on the ground with a bloody gash on his forehead.
"Dead?!"
The villagers, including Zhang Yangping and the others, couldn't believe it. They had fought with this deputy general before, and it was this deputy general who had slashed a meter deep hole in the ground with his sword.
Such a powerful figure had died just like that?
Shock, bewilderment …
Then, these two emotions turned into surprise. And then there was nervousness.
They were surprised that Fang Zhengzhi was able to kill such a powerful figure, but nervous because Fang Zhengzhi was already so powerful at such a young age. Wouldn't he be even more powerful in the future?
A simple thought.
And the thing that sublimated this kind of simple thinking was true love!
"Zhengzhi, run! They have set up an ambush!"
"There are many soldiers outside. They have already surrounded the entire Northern Mountain Village."
"Zhengzhi, don't bother about us. It doesn't matter if we die! But they have too many people. You can't beat them. Hurry up and run! "
When the villagers regained their senses, they began to shout. In their hearts, Fang Zhengzhi's appearance was far worse than not appearing.
Wang Anhua's expression was also somewhat sorrowful.
Eight years ago. The first time he met Fang Zhengzhi in the Southern Mountain Village was still fresh in his mind. At that time, Fang Zhengzhi was just a child, but Wang Anhua could foresee that Fang Zhengzhi's future would be extraordinary.
But after Fang Zhengzhi was chased out of the Southern Mountain Village, he could only teach in the Hall of Dao, and rarely saw Fang Zhengzhi again.
However. He had heard much about Fang Zhengzhi's hunting in the mountains.
At that time, Wang Anhua sighed in his heart. What a pity that such a good seedling would spend his days in the forest instead of studying the Law of Dao.
Until Fang Zhengzhi shocked everyone in the county examinations, becoming the double roll champion of the Huai An County examinations.
Then, he became the double roll champion of the River of Trust Province.
This caused Wang Anhua to be both shocked and envious. He was shocked that Fang Zhengzhi, who spent his days in the forest, could have such an opportunity. He was envious of Fang Zhengzhi's talent.
Wang Anhua and the Hall of Dao moved to the Northern Mountain Village.
When he reunited with Fang Zhengzhi eight years later, he realized that the young man in front of him was already an eagle that was about to spread its wings and soar into the sky. He was far from a wandering sparrow like him.
Therefore, he settled down and started to teach. He became a real family with the villagers of the Northern Mountain Village and talked about the pride of the Northern Mountain Village every day.
Then, news of Fang Zhengzhi breaking through to the Heavenly Reflection State spread to him.
That day, Wang Anhua was extremely excited. Even though he rarely drank, he downed half a flask. He stumbled around the Northern Mountain Village, telling everyone he met that Fang Zhengzhi had broken through to the Heavenly Reflection State.
It was a pity …
The villagers of the Northern Mountain Village did not know what a 15 year old Heavenly Reflection State youth represented. All they could do was stare at him in confusion.
"Sir, what is Heavenly Reflection?"
"Sir, what does Heavenly Reflection look like? Can you demonstrate it to us?"
Wang Anhua could only smile bitterly. Demonstrate? He was someone who had studied his entire life but had not even accessed Dao. How could he demonstrate Heavenly Reflection to them?
But today, Wang Anhua saw Heavenly Reflection.
That powerful aura, that waterfall falling from the sky, what a magnificent scene of the Milky Way descending from the Nine Heavens. Wang Anhua felt a little sour in his heart, because Fang Zhengzhi had attacked to save him.
"Zhengzhi, run! That black faced general is also in the Heavenly Reflection State! " Before Wang Anhua could finish his sentence, he flew out and pounced towards the black-faced general.
He wanted to use his life to buy time for Fang Zhengzhi to escape and save his parents.
In Wang Anhua's mind, even if Fang Zhengzhi was in the Heavenly Reflection State, he had only just broken through. How could he compare to an experienced general?
The black faced general's expression was ugly.
He did not expect Fang Zhengzhi to kill one of his deputies the moment he appeared. Furthermore, he did it right in front of him. He had killed a deputy without a care in the world.
Most importantly, Fang Zhengzhi didn't run away after killing them all.
And now...
There was actually a teacher from the Hall of Dao who dared to challenge his authority? How could he tolerate this? He tightened his grip on his blade. A column of fire rose into the sky, transforming into a lion baring its fangs.
"Die!" The black faced general knew that Fang Zhengzhi was able to kill a deputy because of his superior cultivation state and his surprise attack.
As such, he was going to use his power to tell Fang Zhengzhi. A life for a life.
The lion bathed in flames appeared with an indomitable aura. Its bright red fangs bit towards Wang Anhua's throat.
However, at that moment, a bright moon appeared in the sky and a silver-white arc-shaped sword-light rapidly blocked the path of the flaming lion.
A speck of purple pierced through the lion's body.
It was the last to strike.
It arrived in front of the black-faced general without much resistance.
This shocked the black-faced general to the core, and he subconsciously used his saber to block in front of him.
"Boom!" A loud crash rang out, followed by the whinny of a horse. A huge body tumbled to the ground.
One sword, off the horse!
The dark-faced general's eyes were filled with disbelief. He stared blankly at the broken blade in his hand. The blood in his chest churned and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"How... how is this possible?!" The black faced general could not believe it.
He knew that Fang Zhengzhi was already in the Heavenly Reflection State. However, he did not know about Fang Zhengzhi's achievements in the Imperial Examinations. He did not even know that Fang Zhengzhi's sword was called Traceless, the sword of Sagely Battle God Meng Tian.
In his heart, Fang Zhengzhi was a genius. He was just a newborn calf that had just entered the Heavenly Reflection State. With his advanced Heavenly Reflection State powers, he would be able to kill Fang Zhengzhi if he dared to appear.
But now...
Everything seemed to be telling him... The Fang Zhengzhi in front of him was not a newborn calf, but a ferocious tiger with razor-sharp claws and teeth.
The terrifying scene had already exceeded his expectations.
Double Roll Champion!
He truly lived up to his name!
In fact, this was beyond the expectations of the black faced general. It was beyond the expectations of the other two deputies as well. It was beyond the expectations of the entire Northern Mountain Village.
"What is going on?!"
"Isn't he a general?"
"How can a general be dismounted by Zhengzhi with just one strike? This … This is too inconceivable, right? "
"So powerful!"
All of the villagers were stunned. They hoped that Fang Zhengzhi was as powerful as possible. However, this level of power did not make any sense.
How could Zhengzhi defeat a general who had fought on the battlefield?
Wang Anhua stood rooted to the ground. He felt as though he had just been brought back from the brink of death. A person who had been seeking death suddenly had a sliver of hope.
Perhaps this was a pleasant surprise. However, he could not understand why this pleasant surprise had come so suddenly.
"Zhengzhi!"
"Zhengzhi, you..."
Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian looked at Fang Zhengzhi. Even though they were Fang Zhengzhi's parents, they did not expect their son to be so powerful.
"Dad, Mum!" Fang Zhengzhi ignored the black faced general and walked to Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian. He knelt down and stabbed the Traceless Sword into the ground. Then, he kowtowed to Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian.
He did not use the Traceless Sword. Instead, he used his bare hands to carefully untie the ropes on Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian. He did not do it quickly.
However, at this moment...
All of the Northern Mountain Village villagers felt a lump in their throats.
What more could they ask for?
The black faced general did not disturb Fang Zhengzhi. Instead, he gave the remaining two deputies a look. The Star Conglomerate deputy understood what the black faced general meant when he saw the black faced general's gaze.
He turned and ran out of the village.
The Heavenly Reflection State deputy rushed to the black faced general's side and helped him up. At the same time, he tightened his grip on his sword.
"Zhengzhi, run! They have an army, you... you can't beat them! Furthermore, they have the army behind them, don't be stupid!" Qin Xuelian prepared to hug Fang Zhengzhi the moment she was untied. However, Fang Houde held her back. She could only shout at Fang Zhengzhi.
"Mum!" Fang Zhengzhi knelt on the ground, looking at Qin Xuelian's teary and wrinkled eyes. For the first time, he felt that Qin Xuelian was getting older.
He knew what Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian were thinking. However, if he left like this, he would not be able to face the world anymore.
Double roll champion, 15 year old Heavenly Reflection prodigy, Sword Envoy, rank four official... If he could not even protect his own parents, what was the point of all that?!
"Today, anyone who dares to step on a blade of grass or hurt a member of the Northern Mountain Village will die!" Fang Zhengzhi stood up and pointed his Traceless Sword at the black faced general.
The devilish purple mark expanded rapidly like fresh blood. At this moment, not only the tip of the Traceless Sword, but almost half of the blade was completely covered by the purple mark.
At the same time, Fang Zhengzhi's eyes glowed with a purple light.
It was the same purple as the Traceless Sword.
He did not know if he had escaped from The Vast World. However, regardless of whether he had escaped or not, he rushed towards the Northern Mountain Village.
Because the sky had already brightened.
He did not have the time or mood to explore the Cang Ling Mountain. His entire focus was on the Northern Mountain Village. He ran as fast as he could.
However, even so, when he rushed back, he still saw a shocking scene.
The entire Northern Mountain Village was surrounded by soldiers.
He knew very well what this meant, so he came in at an extremely fast speed. Without wasting a single second, he rushed in.
However, the scene that he saw after rushing in caused his eyes to turn bloodshot.
The square was stained with blood. Villagers lay in pools of their own blood. A general looked down on the villagers from atop his warhorse.
Most importantly, Fang Houde and Qin Xuelian were both tied to the ground. Zhang Yangping's body was covered in blood as he fell to the ground. His hunched body had already curled into a ball.
He could sense the helplessness in Fang Houde's eyes, Qin Xuelian's rage, and Zhang Yangping's helplessness.
As such...
He had no reason not to kill!
"Kaboom!" A thunderous rumble rang out.
