The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 96. Softness of Heart
The sound of the clap sounded terrible, like the voice of a demon alone, echoing and full of gripping vibrations. So when this cry was heard, the war stopped and everyone looked at the person who had just come.
It turned out that that person was a beautiful girl wearing a light blue robe and a wide caping. To his left, there were two warriors. One was old and the other was wearing a white mask.
"Who are you!!" snarled Xiao Li.
"I am Zhang Qiaofeng!! The current Zhang family leader!! Stop this war! All this is just a misunderstanding!!" zhang Qiaofeng replied firmly.
Not long after, from a distance saw two large groups of troops. Each one carried a banner of war. One group read "Zhang" while the other group read "Xiao"
"Why did they come home together?" mumbled Hao Yu in confusion.
"I already know the problem, now listen! Zhang Heng is no longer part of our family, he is a traitor who has destroyed our Zhang family!!" back Zhang Qiaofeng said firmly and authoritatively.
"What proof!??" xiao Li asked.
"I have proof!!" this time Lin Tian replied.
"Say!!"
After which, this young man took a step forward then replied, "You must remember, back in Stone Town, precisely in South Iron Mark. There was a group of people who were about to destroy the store. Do you know who attacked them?"
"According to the report of the city soldiers, they were led by white masked swordsmen and red masked warriors!!" sahut Xiao Li's.
"Fast right!! And I'll tell you, that the white masked Zhang Heng and the red masked Ling Haocun, one of the eight Pillars of Hell!!"
All the troops looked surprised, not least Xiao Li. But the man seemed to have not given up, so he immediately replied, "Heh, what is the evidence? It can't be evidence of a boy!!"
"Then what can make you trust your parents!!" this time Lin Tian had already lost his temper and lost his manners.
"Defeat our troops and one day we will believe in the Zhang family!!" reply Xiao Li.
"Based on a cocky man!! Have you forgotten how long I was able to defeat you in just one shot, if that time was not being tested, it would have hollowed your neck!!" snapped Lin Tian.
"And do you think the Xiao family is capable of defeating us!? Did you forget that here there is the Mist Ghost Swordsman and Grandfather of the Sakti Arm who has given birth to the Fall of the Sceptre!? Did you forget that Sastrawan Sakti the genius swordsman was siding with us? And do you also not know yet that the Heavenly Crow Association is also standing beside us!?" replied Lin Tian fiery to the point of forgetting he had leaked a secret. But what can be done, rice has become porridge.
Hearing this saying, the guts of Xiao's troops instantly shrank instantly. Unknowingly, their legs and hands were already shivering in fear.
"If all your troops and elders bring you here, I do doubt the victory of the Zhang family. But only five hundred people with the addition of some elders and Hao Yu, you think we would be able to be trampled on? And as for Mister Xiao Li, what would you all do if I raised my head high with my sword!?" back Lin Tian snapped.
Previously the already quiet situation, became more quiet and tense. Xiao Li's wife and child who saw from inside the horse carriage were only able to tremble silently.
Not playing, Minghao thought. Because this young man had indirectly proposed a war with the Xiao family. And if indeed the war really broke out, naturally the Zhang family would be the losing side.
"Hayo answer!! Still consider us traitors!? Hey you stupid people! As long as you know, the real traitor first is you Xiao family!!" Lin Tian continued his words.
Hearing this, the Xiao troops were increasingly confused and shocked. So did Xiao Li himself who was quick to ask, "What do you mean?"
"Look, do you know Xiao Fu, one of your family members? About a year ago, he had become the dogs of the Black Faction Alliance!! Even he was the one who had captured Miss Zhang and Miss Lu! Well, now it's clear who's going to look for a storm first!" obviously Lin Tian.
Increasingly surprised all Xiao's troops and the previously silent state, became noisy and noisy. As for Xiao Li himself, his face was pale as well as his wife's son who had heard the statement.
"What's the matter, Mister Xiao, you're about to argue? Do you remember him? Perhaps it is true that you did not know Miss Zhang at all at that time, and maybe this is the time you saw Miss's face. However, the Black faction Alliance is our greatest enemy! If you consider Zhang Heng the traitor's actions still related to us, then we will return your attitude! Xiao Fu even though he has left his family, but we will consider it still your family and you must atone for what he did!!" said Lin Tian firmly and intimidatedly.
Indeed Lin Tian had learned of Zhang Heng's actions of nearly raping Miss Xiao Lian from the commander of the Xiao family. That's why he dared to say that.
"Xiao Fu.. You said Xiao Fu? He...capture Miss Zhang?" xiao Li said stuttering.
"They!!" Lin Tian had already pulled out his sword which was emitting a bluish-white radiance.
Seeing how the bodyguards were ready with their weapons, the entire Zhang army also immediately pulled out their respective weapons.
But before the two troops again clashed, Xiao Li raised his hand. "Just stop, I believe what Lin Tian said." he said to his soldiers.
Seeing this, Lin Tian also immediately sheathed back his Snow Goddess Sword. But his eyes were still looking and looking sharp.
"Ah...Xiao Fu, why did you become like that." back Xiao Li muttered. In the next instant, this man had already fallen to his feet and covered his face with both hands.
"Dad!!"
"My husband!!"
Seeing the state of Xiao Li, his wife and children immediately approached. They hugged the man trying to calm him down. Hao Yu was only able to remain silent.
"I'm sorry.I'm this stupid for not being able to see reality. We seem to have been played by our opponent. They deliberately used Zhang Heng to have the Xiao family destroy the Zhang family. I'm sorry.." that's the only sentence Xiao Li was able to say.
But of course, regret means nothing. On both sides, dozens of soldiers have died in this civil war. A war caused by misunderstanding and shortness of mind of the Xiao family leader.
Hearing Xiao Li's apology, Lin Tian simply scolded and walked to the side of his young Miss. Even though he was still curious about Xiao Fu who could make the family leader look very sad.
"Well, now that it is clear, we better stop this and take care of all the bodies of the soldiers" Zhang Qiaofeng said, ordering his troops to remove the bodies.
But suddenly, Hao Yu walked over to Lu Jia Li who was still sitting limp.
"What do you want!?" asked Lu Tuoli coldly.
But the next incident made everyone stunned at the actions of Miss Xiao's bodyguard. The reason, once this question stopped, Hao Yu immediately pulled out his machete and...
"Craaat!!"
"What are you doing!!" snapped Xiao Li who was surprised to see the actions of his bodyguards. Likewise with the wife's child and the entire army.
Fresh blood dripped from his machete. It was no one's blood, but it was his own!! Blood coming from his right eye which he accidentally slashed with the machete.
After that, with the condition of the eyes still bleeding, this man dropped his goal and kowtowed before Lu Jia Li's feet while saying firmly.
"I'm sorry for acting so cruel Miss Lu." Those are the only words that came out of her mouth. But it sounds very clear.
Lu Jia Li was momentarily startled and blinked his eyes a few times. Then this girl took her little book, and wrote something with a rather trembling hand, because her condition was still weak. After which, accompanied by a patient smile, he held onto the back of Hao Yu's hand gently while showing the man his writing.
"This is all just a misunderstanding. If you don't blind your right eye, I'll forgive you without apologizing. Now get up, it would be inappropriate for a real man like you to prostrate at the feet of a weak girl like me."
Hao Yu who was reading this writing became moved. Not only because of the purpose and content of the writing, but also about the girl. If this girl communicates with him using a book and a series of sentences, it means she can't talk! That's how he thought.
So slowly, Hao Yu sat up and looked at the smiling face. Then said nervously, "You..you.can't talk?"
Lu Jia Li was still smiling, and only a small nod would be the answer. And so with a heart full of regret, Hao Yu again kowtowed before Lu Jia Li. Even this time he thrust his machete with both hands towards Lu Jia Li.
"I'm sorry!! I'm sorry Miss Lu!! It's take, take this cleaver and chop off my head if that's the only way you can forgive me!" said firmly.
However, the girl whose right eye was still shedding blood just smiled and took the machete. Put it into the machete holster that is on the back, then return to thrust his writing. But this time he circled around the word "I've forgiven you".
