The Night King: The Asura
Ch-174b. Bullies while eating
"Seven slashes of death!"
After leaping backwards and taking some distance from them, Xie Long then launched an attack with the style he learned from his father, which was a move that had taken the lives of many of Lin Feng's enemies.
The seven crescent-shaped sword energies were red in color, darting at high speed and cutting through anything he went through. The bandits who witnessed it, tried to escape, but it was too late.
In the end, all of the bandits who stopped Xie Long's steps, were successfully eliminated by him using just one move, and all of them had completely died under extremely miserable circumstances.
"Cihh, you bully!" xie Long said.
Then, Xie Long gathered all of their storage rings, although the contents were not very valuable, but it was already quite enough to help increase his cultivation, and after that, he continued his journey towards the imperial city.
"Hopefully outside this forest is a city" muttered Xie Long.
Having only set foot for the first time in this Southern region, Xie Long could only hope for the path he was currently following, and if that path did not lead him to a city or village, he said, then Xie Long had to fend for himself to look for him.
However, Xie Long was finally able to sigh in relief after seeing a city that was still quite far from where it was now, and without a second thought, without a second thought, Xie Long sped up his steps to get to the city immediately.
In less than ten minutes, Xie Long who was darting at his maximum speed, finally reached the first city he saw in this Southern region, but just like the other cities, finally, he had to go through the examination first before entering the city.
"Show me your identity!"
Xie Long nodded, then showed the badge of the Lin clan.
"Klan Lin? Which region are you from?"
"The eastern region, Feng empire, is precisely in the city of Xuanshi" Xie Long explained.
"Okay, come in!" said the gate guard soldier.
"Thank you, Mister!" sahut Xie Long, then passed the gate guard soldiers.

A few days ago.
"Your highness, the bandits started to act again, a great many residents were complaining because they were still not exterminated either."
"Don't I have lowered the order to hunt them down?" ask the old man sitting on the throne.
"Yes your honor! But, the hunt we did was still unable to exterminate all the bandits in this Southern region."
"Huh" the old man let out a long sigh, "Alright, it seems that I alone should intervene."
"Your majesty! These actions were too excessive, they were merely lowly bandits and it would be inappropriate for the noble to intervene directly."
"really? Then why are you still not solving a trivial problem like this?"
"General, prepare an army, tomorrow we'll go to the village."
"What do you mean, your highness?"
"It's time we annihilate the bullies of this empire!"
"Okay, your highness!"
After getting the order, the man who had the status of a general also left the throne hall, then he went to the training ground of the troops to convey the command he had just obtained.
"After a long time, finally the noble began to get excited again" the general murmured.
"Well" the general let out a long sigh, "Whatever the reason, the important spirit in his noble self has appeared again."
Tomorrow.
In accordance with what had been ordered, today the emperor of the Yuan state who was none other than the great-grandfather of Xie Long, was, finally departing with his troops headed to a village that was considered the most dangerous place in this Southern region.
However, because of the great distance, the trip could not only be taken by one day. It was actually easy for Yuan Chun Zhe and his troops to get there, but because they had to eradicate the bandits, they had to make the journey by riding horses.
Just by riding a horse and carrying a few carts, then the troubling bandits will appear and show their nostrils, because they will think that Yuan Chun Zhe's entourage is a group of traders.
And sure enough, after they exited the imperial city gate and were within a considerable distance, their entourage was instantly stopped by a group of bandits. But of course, they all managed to be encircled by the imperial army easily.
Now, after a few days of traveling and eradicating the troubling bandits, Yuan Chun Zhe's entourage finally arrived at a city that was located very far from the imperial city.
***
In a restaurant.
"Welcome" said a servant to Xie Long.
Xie Long smiled kindly as he nodded, "Bring me some good food and drinks" he said.
"Well" the waiter replied, then went to prepare Xie Long's order.
After ordering, Xie Long directed his gaze across the room, after finding one empty table, he then walked up to her and sat there.
At the same time.
Some of the men who were sitting not far from Xie Long looked at him with sharp gazes, and of course, these gazes of theirs were instantly realized by Xie Long, yet he preferred to ignore them, instead, they don't bother him either.
Not long after, the waiter who had come to Xie Long with a plate of food and a glass of drink, after putting it on his desk, lowered his body and left Xie Long.
"Huh" Xie Long let out a long sigh, "I just want to eat, it feels like there's nothing interesting about a child like me, but why can't your gazes escape me?"
Xie Long spoke in a tone so loud that his words were heard by everyone in the room, but he spoke without looking at the people who had been watching him.
"This child..."
"You're good enough to realize that, if you may know, who are you? It's impossible for a kid your age to feel it."
"I am a nobody, just a hungry wanderer who is stopping to fill his tummy" replied Xie Long, but still did not turn his head towards his interlocutor.
"A fascinating answer, I'm getting curious about you."
"No problem, but let me finish this food and drink first" said Xie Long.
Although the interlocutor did not say if he wanted to challenge Xie Long to fight, but his words just now could be interpreted as a challenge, and Xie Long was not a stupid child who did not understand it.
"If you can now, why wait until later?"
"Maybe, but you need to know, there are some things I don't like, first being bullied at meals, my two families" Xie Long replied.
"Your words just reminded me of someone!" another man said, from his tone of voice, Xie Long could guess if the man was much older than the man before.
"You're right, because my father always said that, and yes! I learned those words from him."
