Chapter 905: Chapter 905: Heavenly Paint Brush

"Who goes there?" The pursuers slowly closed in, among them a man with a sullen expression emerged, the very man who had kidnapped you.

"Assistant Minister of the Secretariat of the Great Tang, Luo Xin!"

"So, it’s Mr. Luo! My apologies, we are in the process of capturing an escapee, kindly..."

"Are you referring to my brother?" Luo Xin’s expression at this moment was as cold as Luo Cheng’s had been that day, cold, very cold, but to you, this coldness felt warmer than anything you’d ever experienced before! For some reason, right now, you feel an overwhelming urge to cry, which is absurdly strange!

"Who are you?"

"I am the Colonel of the Northern City Military, Li..."

"No need to give your name, as there is no need for it." Cool, too cool. Luo Xin now seemed even cooler than Schwarzenegger, casually picking up the brush in his hand and, from twenty meters away, lightly making a dot with it, just that one dot!

"Aaah!!" The sullen man’s steed let out a dreadful scream, then flopped down like a pile of mud. The man made a hasty leap to safety, rolling to the ground with a graceful and dashing posture.

"Mr. Luo, this is a defiance of military orders!"

"I care not for your military orders! Anyone who dares harm my family has no right to live in this world!"

Saying this, Luo Xin comically wielded the brush in the air, yet despite his seemingly ludicrous motions, no one could manage to laugh. To their horrified realization, a massive beast’s maw quickly formed above the sullen man’s head. As soon as it appeared, it yawned open, displaying its bloodstained tusks in a terrifying sight.

And then, Luo Xin bellowed, "Taotie, devour!"

"I belong to the Crown Prince, you wouldn’t dare kill—Aaaahhhh!!"

The sullen man’s death was gruesomely wrenching, for the massive maw didn’t swallow him whole but bit him in half and began to chew.

"Disgusting!" You couldn’t help but vomit at the sight, then patted Luo Xin on the shoulder and sighed, "Brother, your taste is a bit too strong!"

"Those who dare injure my brother only get the lightest punishment!" Luo Xin snorted coldly.

Meanwhile, from not too far off came the thunderous sound of hooves. The first thing that struck your eyes was the dazzling silver light, and before you could make out the advancing troops, you heard the short but powerful bellow of Butler Uncle Ding: "Kill! Leave none alive!"

"It’s the Luo Family Army, run for it!" Someone shouted first, as if they had seen a demon from hell itself, urging their horse to gallop desperately. But before they had covered a few dozen meters, a Long Silver Spear pinned them to the ground, horse and rider together.

Now closer, you could finally discern the so-called magnificence of the Luo Family Army. It was a hundred-strong Cavalry Team, with every Knight clad in silver armor, brandishing long spears, carrying Longbows on their backs, and a long chopper hanging at their waists.

Each man bore a solemn expression, appearing as if they were all born of the same mother. Although you knew these were your family’s troops, confronted with such an overwhelming force, you felt a natural sense of dread welling within you, almost making you want to bury your head in the ground. Thankfully, you overcame this quickly, as the thought of the Jiangdong elders hearing about your fear made you dread losing face before them.

"Mm, Uncle Ding arrived just in time. Second brother, come, let’s join the fight!"

Seeing the eager expression on Luo Xin’s face, and his body brimming with the intent to kill, you couldn’t help but roll your eyes—turns out this whole family is a bunch of Gods of Murder!

"Brother, it’s when a man faces battle that his true heroic nature shines!" At this moment, Luo Xin had already seized a horse, lifted his long knife, and chased after the enemy.

"I’m going in for the kill, and I, Luo Yun, am no coward!" you roared, the Resting door swung open immediately, and your body, like a cheetah, charged at full speed toward a pursuer.

With a sweep of the blade, a head rolled!

"Ugh!"

Although you had often fought with all kinds of ghosts, and had seen plenty of corpses, this was your first time killing a person. The moment the head was severed from the body, you felt your stomach churn and naturally vomited.

"Ptui, ptui!"

But in just a few minutes, you quickly rallied, picked up the chopper, and prepared to continue the killing spree. However, by this time on the battlefield, were there any enemies left? They were all already impaled on the spears of the Luo Family Army and dragged off by Ghost to report to the Underworld.

"Darn! Can’t you guys leave some for your young master?"

You swore loudly, having just overcome your psychological fears and physiological discomfort, and were ready to put on a Tough Man show—only to find they’d all been finished off.

"Heh heh, that’s my brother for you—no one from the Luo Family is a coward! Ha ha ha!"

Looking at Luo Xin, covered in the blood of his enemies, you gave him a roll of your eyes. Turns out he’s been putting on an act all this time, that so-called Assistant Minister of the Secretariat of the Great Tang is nothing but a wolf in sheep’s clothing!

However, in a spot you couldn’t see, Luo Cheng stood alone at the highest point of a city tower, watching the performance of the two kids miles away. Luo Cheng’s face revealed a slight smile of satisfaction. With a turn, his body vanished into thin air.

Uncle Ding led the Luo Family Army away, while you were taken back to the city by Luo Xin on horseback. On the way home, you couldn’t help but ask with some worry, "Elder brother, do you think the Emperor will blame us for killing so many?"

"Hehe, His Majesty will certainly not blame us. He will have to turn a blind eye to this matter. Moreover, today’s events can be said to have served as an outlet for the Luo Family’s wrath. Otherwise, as for the Crown Prince seated so high... huh huh huh."

"That’s a relief." You glanced at the long pen tied to Luo Xin’s waist before asking, "Elder brother, your weapon is quite unique, huh?"

"What do you know? This is the one-of-a-kind weapon my Master left to me—there’s nothing else like it under the heavens."

"Pfft, boast all you want." You didn’t press for more details—after all, it was Luo Xin’s personal secret.

"Mother, I’m back!" You shouted as soon as you entered the hall.

"Little Yueyue, come give your young master a hug—I almost didn’t get to see you again—ouch! Mother, why are you hitting me again!" Meng Family gave you a slap that sent you staggering, while Little Yue curled her lips, giggling on the side.

Meng Family gave you a displeased look and then scolded a blood-stained Luo Xin, "Aren’t you going to wash up? You seem to enjoy killing a little too much. You’re already this old and still don’t know how to keep clean."

"Yes, yes, I’m going now," Luo Xin hastily nodded and scampered off to leave. But Meng Family’s next words almost made him trip, "It seems we must find you a wife soon."
