Chapter 396: Late Night Meeting

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Firey returned to her room and went to bed. Himmel Soan sat on a stone chair with his eyes closed. They didn’t need to stop here and could head for the Dusk Soul Forest right away, but he suggested they stay for the night.

Firey had no objections, so she happily went to bed. She didn’t need to sleep, but it provided her with psychological satisfaction. She slept soundly.

An event was taking place in a courtyard in another corner of the village. It was the largest courtyard in the village. The villagers would come here whenever they had things to discuss.

Although it was already bedtime, the villagers were gathered there. Everyone was here except for one, Oech. That was because the subject they were discussing had something to do with him. Of course, they couldn’t talk about it in front of him!

“That mute is a Soan. What should we do now?”

“We should kill him! That’s the order of the eight emperors!”

“But you saw what happened this afternoon. I agree we should kill him, but how?”

“He’s just one man. Why should we be scared?”

Somebody wasn’t convinced. If the eight emperors wanted to kill the Soans, they could do it on their own. That young man had unfathomable strength, not to mention he was so strange. Why should it be their job to kill him?

They would only get themselves killed!

Moreover, that young man didn’t do anything to them. There were no grudges between them and him. Why should they attack him?

Many people shared the idea.

“I know what you think. Actually, I thought the same way at first, but what if the Baih family and the eight emperors hear about this? I’m sure if words get out, we’re all going to die! We can’t let that happen.”

That was Nue, one of the villagers. He suspected Himmel Soan when the latter was here the first time and had wanted to kick him out.

Back then, Nue also discussed with some other villagers, but Himmel Soan left before they could take action. They gradually forgot about this matter until he showed up again and revealed his surname.

They decided they couldn’t leave him alive anymore.

“I agree with you, but it’s none of my business. I’m going home.” One of the villagers wanted to leave.

“Toch, if I remember correctly, you and Oech are friends, aren’t you?” Nue suddenly asked.

“Yes, but aren’t we all friends?”

Toch stopped in his tracks. He knew Nue was suggesting something, but he didn’t know what exactly he was getting at. Then he understood.

“Toch, I think you should stay here for the night,” said Nue.

“What?” Toch was confused.

Then he saw two men guarding the door with weapons. It seemed no one was allowed to leave. Toch frowned. “Nue, what are you doing?”

“Toch, I’m sorry, but this is a special case!” Nue said solemnly.

“What are you going to do to Oech? Aren’t you his friend? What’s happening?” Toch glared at Nue, but he didn’t fight back.

Everybody had taken Nue’s side, so resisting would only get him killed. However, he could still ask questions.

“Yes, Oech and I get along well, but that’s exactly why I can’t let him make such a big mistake. That Soan has brainwashed him. You saw what happened today!

“Do you think Oech still has hope? He’s not the old him anymore! We have to remember that. He’s only that Soan’s accomplice!

“We serve the Baih family, so we’re obligated to exterminate him!

“Once Oech is dead, the Baih family won’t blame us for his actions! Maybe we’ll get our status back and won’t have to risk our lives, hunting for a living!” Nue made a passionate speech.

It didn’t matter if Oech was brainwashed. The villagers simply wanted to kill him. His death would be their chance to get recognized again.

“Kill the Soan and his accomplice!”

“Yes! Kill them both!”

“Kill the Soans!”

“…”

Everybody shouted one after another.

Toch couldn’t believe his ears.

Kill Oech?

What was happening to this world?

A moment ago, Oech was their friend and companion, but now, they hated him so much that they wanted to kill him. It was crazy!

This world had gone mad!

“Kill me to show the Baih family your loyalty, is it?” A delightful voice rang out in the courtyard.

“Who’s there?” Nue frowned and looked around.

“Didn’t you want to kill me? How are you going to do that if you can’t even recognize my voice?” Himmel Soan suddenly appeared in the middle of the courtyard.

Nue’s pupils contracted, and his heart skipped a beat. He had wanted to assassinate Himmel Soan because that would be the least risky way. He had never expected to see him here!

If he didn’t have a strong heart, he might have been frightened to death.

To be able to show up here and speak so casually, Himmel Soan had to be more capable than all of them put together! There was no chance for them to defeat him, let alone kill him!

“Guys, the Soan is right here! We have to make good use of this chance! Let’s kill this abominable man together!

“Don’t be afraid! Kill him!” Nue backed away as he riled up the crowd.

He was going to run away while the others fought. However, over a minute passed, but no one moved.

“Do you really think you’ve mastered the bewitching skill? If you are, you can make these people willingly die for you with a single sentence.

“You’ve only learned a knock-off version!”
