Chapter 955 - 955 321 The Bizarre Ambush_2

Chapter 955: Chapter 321 The Bizarre Ambush_2 Chapter 955: Chapter 321 The Bizarre Ambush_2 While others reveled in peace and prosperity, I alone seemed like a homeless, defeated dog.

Covered in wounds.

Weary to the bone.

Lost in heart.

I had no lack of strength in my body, yet I knew not where to exert my efforts.

The will to struggle was incessant, but even the direction in which to desperately fight was elusive.

“Sigh…”

Feng Yin closed his eyes, and a single tear slowly emerged on his face as stony as an unyielding rock, only to evaporate immediately.

Then came my second life, a transmigration with a new start as a lowly beggar.

The early days were indeed more miserable than my previous life.

Being beaten, fixed up, and trampled upon for no reason was almost a daily meal.

A slap that sent me flying several meters, my ears buzzing.

All the intelligence and wit from my past life were employed here just for a bite of food, struggling to survive.

At last, I learned of the existence of the Heavenly Judge… and eventually took the first step toward killing…

It seemed I had forgotten the feeling in my heart at the time.

So tense, so fearful.

Until the end, when I closed my eyes and a stone came crashing down… it was as if I had smashed open the gates to a new world.

From then on, life was never the same.

Since then, I embarked on the path of cultivation, silently practicing, silently seeking opportunities, and silently strengthening my body…

Those evildoers, those targets of the mission, all the details of their files showed that they did not regard ordinary people as human; they took pleasure in tormenting others, and to them, a human life was worth less than a dog’s.

And the path I chose was to exterminate those evildoers.

One knife for one!

One knife for ten!

The thrilling rush of decapitation and life-severing in an instant…

Along the journey… until I secluded myself in a small martial town, inadvertently unlocked a golden finger, and then…

Step by step, I arrived at this moment.

All the experiences I had, echoed in my mind, every minute detail replayed with sharp clarity.

Including many long-forgotten events, which had left no impression, all suddenly re-emerged before my eyes in the clearest way possible at that moment.

It seemed that in that brief time, I relived both of my lifetimes once again, experiencing life anew.

Until… until I reached Yuezhou and saw many evildoers killed, yet the oppressed turned evildoers themselves, leading to new mission tasks, that kind of perplexity arose…

Only then did Feng Yin finally awaken, returning to his senses.

“That’s the barrier of the strong.”

“But now it seems, it doesn’t matter—just kill them!”

Feng Yin let out a light sigh of relief, suddenly feeling very relaxed and at ease.

What’s there to worry about?

Do I need to worry?

Yes, you killed evildoers, that’s true.

But just because you killed the notorious ones, must you require everyone else to become good people?

Since when does the world operate on such logic?

If they don’t become good people… what then?

Could it be that the knife in hand is just for show?

“This way, I understand now.”

“Before, I was simply making things difficult for myself.”

“What I should truly fear is not evildoers; it’s the good people, because I cannot bring myself to strike them. Once you turn evil, I can swing my blade without hesitation and strike the fatal blow!”

“It’s just that simple!”

With clear thoughts, Feng Yin couldn’t help but reveal a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.

The barrier of the strong, huh…

“Speaking of it seems mysterious, hard to overcome, but when it’s laid out, it’s really just about the strong feeling dissatisfied and undervalued,” he thought.

“It’s like the charity I did in my previous life, when you do too much for others, donate too much, and then see the recipients behaving irresponsibly and even getting greedier, you naturally feel it’s not worth it. It’s the same principle.”

“But this is not my previous life.”

“Those kinds of concerns, those kinds of hesitations, don’t exist here. Here, one can speak with slaughter.”

“As for the future… whether to appear as a paragon of justice, I can’t be swayed by the old man’s bluffs, safety comes first.”

Having understood, Feng Yin simply fell into a comfortable sleep in the tree hollow.

Thinking about it, after so many years, this was truly the first time I slept so fully relaxed and comfortably!

In his sleep, as his state of mind broke through, it was as if a new door opened. A myriad of spiritual energies began to pour into him once again.

Unnoticed, without feeling, his cultivation continued to skyrocket without limit…

…

While Feng Yin slept soundly, Dong Xiaoyan faced an unprecedented crisis.

The entire Imperial Capital of Xianyang mobilized to hunt Gentle, with the number of operatives reaching millions.

Facing such grave circumstances, Dong Xiaoyan couldn’t help but fret.

Naturally, her frequency of leaving the house increased, and even with cautious cover-ups, she couldn’t avoid seeking news about Gentle.

And so, she could no longer come and go as quickly as before.

But it was during one of her nocturnal outings, when she killed a King Rank target, that she encountered a rare targeted ambush on her way back.

Just on the way back to the inn, she was besieged by not one, but three waves of Cloud Top experts!

The Bai Changshan brothers indeed came upon hearing the news to protect her, but the number of enemy experts reached as many as eight!

This was far beyond the capacity the brothers could handle!

Even Dong Xiaoyan herself had not expected that someone would dare to ambush the young princess of the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace in Great Qin’s Imperial Capital!

Could it be that the world’s number one sect was being taken for granted?

Yet such a bizarre incident occurred!

When the first black-robed, masked person appeared, with a forward palm strike, Dong Xiaoyan was injured.
