Chapter 431 - CURSED ENDING: PART II

BANG 

BANG 

PUNCH 

As the battle between the different mercenaries, Jo, the estate guardian and now Feng Xiatong continues. More and more mercenaries have arrived, which brought fear to those who could not stand them. They were far greater in strength and skills... But strangely, they did not leave the entrance at all and seemed to be just on standby. 

Those mercenary groups who saw them as they entered wonder who could they be? They did not attack anyone nor block anyone from entering. They just stood there like status waiting patients for whom they are waiting for. 

"Who do you think those guys are?"

"Who cares. Let's just hope they stay that way."

A few mercenaries have arrived to join in the search for the Young Princess. 

Meanwhile, Feng Xiaotong and his men are trying their best to find their way into the forest. They have encountered quite a few groups along the way. Luckily, his men were also top class so it wasn't that hard to handle them and they didn't experience any casualties as well. 

"Young Master, it's best if you stay behind us." 

Feng Xiaotong knows that. But he was in a hurry and could no longer wait to see the girl. He needs assurance that she is fine. He cares for nothing more at this moment but for the girl. 

'Li Zi, just hold on. Any moment now and I'll be there.'

All kept having the same prayer but they didn't know they were already too late. That their prayer could no longer be answerable for the girl they are all looking for is nowhere to be found. But still, all of them keep hoping for the best without knowing the truth.

As the man continue fort with his men. They came across a person who just single handedly kept a group of mercenaries. They look at him in amazement and a troubling thought. 

'Sh*t were done for it'

'What should we do? This person doesn't look normal at all.'

Feng Xiaotong examines the person ahead. He was like a furious beast that have killed his prey. His face was covered with the stain of blood from the men he just killed. One of his hands was holding a knife and the blood from it continued to drip none stop. 

'Who is he?'

The man gave off a long sigh. He was exhausted from all the killing he just did. His eyes showed no kind of emotion nor was he feeling any as well. His heart was also stone cold to begin with so he felt irritated when people act innocent and ask for his mercy to spare their life. Only such fools would act in such manner knowing what they have signed for. 

"How many have I killed already?" he mumbled to himself with such an irritated expression on his face. He has thought that if he went to where most shootings are he'll find the girl. But, regrettably he has found no clue of her whereabouts at all and is now frustrated at the same time worried that his hope of finding her is now back to zero again. 

"F*cking idiots, why won't they just all die." He cursed aloud, making it clear to those near him hear what he just said. 

Feng Xiaotong took the opportunity to gather his thoughts as he pondered on his options. 

It seems they are no match with the person. 

Fleeing is the best option but they might get caught in the end. 

Was negotiating with the person even possible.

There were so many things popping in his mind as he wondered which was the best course of action. He wishes to spare his men from fighting the demon ahead. Right now, his priority is to save his men as well as at the same time ensure they'll all get out of the place alive with the girl. 

"Young Master, what should we do?"

Feng Xiaotong looked at the commander of his team and too was still baffled by their situation. If his men were just skilled enough he would ask them to kill the man for he feared he might be a hindrance in the long run. 

"We have no choice, we better find another way..."

"YOU!"

Before Feng Xiaotong could finish examining, it seems the person in front of them have caught sight of them. He was busy cursing himself and the girl that he did not realize he has a new prey in front of him.

Feng Xiaotong turned to face the man and saw the blood l.u.s.t in his eyes. The man was ready to cut off each of their heads any moment.

"Young Master, stay back."

"Everyone, protect the Young Master." 

Jo kept hearing them mention the young master and was curious who the person could be. It made him wonder who in the hell is this rich *sshole that decided to step into a war zone and be pampered like a prince. 

'This person must be out of his mind. How much money was he lacking to even risk his life.'

He became even more peeved by the fact a foolish rich kid has shown up in front of him. He really didn't wish to bother killing such an easy prey. It felt like a bunny had stepped in front of him all trembling for his life. 

"You, you shouldn't be here. Can you see what's happening here? Rich kids like you better leave at once."

Feng Xiaotong and his men were all stupefy hearing what they just heard. Could it be the heavens were protecting them and their lives are now being spared by the devil himself. They all continue to stay silent and statue on the same spot whilst holding onto this tiny hope that they are about to escape death himself. 

"Hey kid, you better forget what you came for. I mean, I can kill you right now to prove to you that you won't be able to see what you're looking for. But, I honestly don't feel like killing you. You and your men will only be a waste of my time. So you better go away now and head home to your palace what so ever and never show your face in front of me. If I do see you running around here, don't think I won't hesitate to take you life. I don't really like giving people a second chance. It's just useless since they'll soon bite you back. So, what will it be, take it or leave it?"

Feng Xiaotong clenched his hand into a fist aggravated from what he just heard. Was the person in front of him treating him like a kid. The person in front of him looked more like a kid than him. He was so pissed off that he wished to shoot the person right away. But it was futile because his life was being spared at the moment. But, he can't back down. He didn't care if he was to fight the person to death as long as he tried his best. 

"I can't accept your offer." 

Everyone around him was all goosebump from what he said. Of course they expect it but they have this tiny hope to escape death and seeing their master wish to pursue what he intended to do in the first place just means they'll soon be meeting ripper. 

".....Oh." Jo looked excitedly at them surprised by how they responded to his kind offer. "I didn't expect you to be the quieter type of a person anyways."

Feng Xiaotong smiled from the compliment he received and responded. "Thank you."

"But, I can't let you all get loose and be another bothersome creature roaming around the area. As you see, I'm trying to clean all the bugs as fast as possible seeing there are more coming."

"I don't know what to say." 

"Well I mean, you and your men are also a bug to me which is why I'm giving you another chance. Leave before I change my mind and just squash you like I've done to them..."

Feng Xiaotong's eyes looked down at the dead corpse laying around the man. He felt disgusted when the man was even stepping on them as if he was trying to tell him this would be you in any second. His guts were swirling in all directions as he felt sick from the sight he was seeing. 

"Forgive me, but it seems I'm one of those annoying bugs that does not wish to leave even though he knows he'll die anyways. I'll rather meet my doom then give up halfway." 

"Man, is the money really that important in your life? I'm trying to spare you and your little friends." 

From a chick they all turned into roasters from hearing what they just heard. Some of them were elite military officers and yet was being class as a punny bug. They were all squabbling and grabbing each other to calm down before they do something foolish whcih can cause their heads. 

"I'm not here for the money." 

Jo was bewildered and eagerly looked at the man ahead. 

As the dark clouds covering the moon vanished, its ray soon lighted the man who was determined to continue into the battlefield. 

"I'm here for my fiance."
