Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince
Chapter 320 - The Bloody Massacre On The PathAfter a short assessment, everyone concluded that this was indeed done by someone from the Fu Clan, and a single person did this.
It became evident that Shu Xian had killed his way through the jungle and was clearing a path for everyone.
The corpses that were lying on the ground were of bandits.
This wasn't hard to judge.
After a few more minutes of looking here and there, they resumed the journey.
A few hours later, they once again passed through a massacre.
This time too, they say the Fu Clan insignia.
After a few more hours, everything repeated.
This time however it was Gracious Sword Sect insignia.
It became solid proof that the person clearing the way was indeed Shu Xian.
'This guy is really this powerful!?'
Everyone in the caravan was surprised at Shu Xian's battle prowess.
From the wounds and cuts on the bandits, it wasn't hard to notice that all of them literally died from a single slash.
'This guy is really this powerful.'
The question had now turned into a fact.
Even Yuan Shuchun was slightly alarmed from the massacre she witnessed along the way.
'Was he always this powerful?'
Being one of the core members of the Heavenly League, Yuan Shuchun had personally tested Shu Xian's battle prowess and defeated him easily.
But the massacre that Shu Xian had shown everyone in the last two days wasn't a small deal.
Not only one needed a high cultivation realm, but also willpower and stamina to maintain killing nonstop.
'This guy was really hiding his strength.'
She had no other choice but to look at Shu Xian in a new light.
No random disciple would be able to do what Shu Xian was doing.
If even Yuan Shuchun was feeling apprehensive, then it was certain that no other disciple in the Gracious Sword Sect could repeat such a thing.
Even Xiao Ming, who was beside her, had a very serious expression.
He had never imagined that Shu Xian would be this powerful.
'This will be a tough opponent.'
He was never on the same page with Shu Xian, and in the last few days, the hostility with Shu Xian was becoming pretty much evident.
And now, with such a showcase of power, Shu Xian had unknowingly put a lot of pressure upon Xiao Ming.
Alas, it was only his bad luck that he didn't know that the Shu Xian he was worrying about…was long dead.
On the carriage ahead of them, Jun Xie and Kai Yang both had serious expressions.
'This guy… something's wrong with this guy.'
Jun Xie found it hard to believe that Shu Xian was able to massacre all the bandits that crossed his path.
The bandits were not nobodies.
They were genuine Qi Stabilization Realm cultivators.
Some old ones might even be on the threshold of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Yet, they were cut into two by Shu Xian.
'I have misjudged him too much.'
The only thing that Jun Xie was feeling relieved about was his Spirit Sense having a good effect on Shu Xian.
'He wasn't able to get out of my illusions during the banquet…'
Just then, the carriage suddenly jerked and stopped.
Jun Xie was pushed sideways and barely was able to balance himself.
"Another one?" Kai Yang, who also woke up due to the jerk, asked.
"Yeah, looks like one." Fu Kai replied from outside.
Jun Xie frowned, "What's the need to stop?"
Fu Kai cleared his throat and said, "You should see this."
Jun Xie and Kai Yang made eye contact and nodded at each other; both of them came out of the carriage.
In front of them was a very familiar scene.
Tens of corpses were lying around; all cut into half with a single slice of a sword.
"Another one." Jun Xie let out a sigh.
This was another one of Shu Xian's massacres.
"What happened?"
Xiao Ming called out from behind, Yuan Shuchun following behind him.
"Oh…" He was surprised to see this scene.
"I thought we decided not to stop anymore?" Xiao Ming turned towards Fu Kai and asked.
Fu Kai pursed his lips and pointed towards something.
Everyone frowned, and when observed, they found Fu Kai pointing at a heap of corpses.
"What?" Xiao Ming asked in confusion.
He sounded impatient.
"That hand!" Suddenly Jun Xie exclaimed.
Everyone focused on a hand lying a few feet away from the heap of the corpse, only half visible within the dense grass.
Jun Xie moved towards and picked it up.
He observed it for a few moments and said, "This belongs to Shu Xian!"
"What!?" Everyone was shocked by the sudden revelation.
Jun Xie looked around and noticed the traces to battle through the path ahead.
"Let's get going! Shu Xian might be in danger!"
Everyone nodded and swiftly jumped back to their carriage.
Within a few moments, the carriage was running straight through the path, following the occasional bloodstains and corpses.
Slowly after a few minutes, the bloodstains turned scarcer, and even the corpses seemed to have almost disappeared.
'Was he able to escape?'
Even though Yuan Shuchun didn't hold Shu Xian in the same regard as she used to do, she still felt a bit worried about him. After all, he had been a very close ally to her for the last few years.
Just as everyone sighed relief, a few corpses appeared once again.
This time, even the forest and surroundings were quite damaged.
'Looks like we're approaching the main battlefield!'
Jun Xie frowned.
He was sitting beside Fu Kai at the front of the carriage.
And just as he had expected, they suddenly came out in the open.
Jun Xie was surprised by the tens of corpses lying around, but something immediately caught his eye.
A cross.
And on that cross was hanging a corpse!
The clothes worn by this corpse were the same as those on the arm he had found a few minutes ago.
This coincidence made his heart drop, 'Shu Xian!?'
…
A/n: here, the cross is of the shape X, not + (viz.. the one related to Jesus.)
