In the scene, the next moment, Xiao Luo Xuan heard some commotion coming from afar.
Xiao Luo Xuan didn't dare to stay; he hurriedly took the only food left at home.
And then desperately fled up the mountain!
Xiao Luo Xuan didn't dare to pause.
Afraid that those wicked people were still nearby, afraid they would find him!
He wasn't afraid of death.
What he feared was that after his death, the deep-seated blood feud would go unavenged!
Xiao Luo Xuan escaped into the deep mountains, where many fierce beasts roamed.
Even adults dared not tread lightly, and even the most experienced hunters had to be extremely cautious.
For a five-year-old child.
It is imaginable how big a test it was!
Xiao Luo Xuan relied on his experience from accompanying his father up the mountains to cut wood.
Painfully seeking a safe place, hiding deep in the mountains.
At this moment, Xiao Luo Xuan looked even more battered.
His whole body was covered with various sizes of bloodstains.
Apparently from stumbling or being pricked by thorns on the way up the mountain.
Xiao Luo Xuan endured the pain without a sound.
Thinking of the death of his parents and his unborn sibling, who died in the womb.
His tears had never stopped.
On the mountain, Xiao Luo Xuan stayed for two days and two nights.
In the end, even his tears dried up.
The last that flowed out were clearly tears of blood!
At last, Xiao Luo Xuan felt his entire body going numb.
Moreover, the food had long been exhausted.
At this time, Xiao Luo Xuan finally decided to set out and take a look back.
Cautiously returning to the side of the small fishing village.
At this moment, the small fishing village still displayed the same scene of dead bodies everywhere.
The smell of blood faded somewhat, replaced by an increasingly strong stench from the dead bodies!
After a period of silence, Xiao Luo Xuan went to see the nearby small villages.
Even went to the town, hoping to hide his name there and endure until one day he could take revenge.
But what Xiao Luo Xuan didn't expect was that the whole town had also been slaughtered clean.
The manner of death was identical to his parents and the others in the village!
The bookshop owner who conversed with him a few days ago.
Sometimes when he didn't have enough copper plates, the owner would also give him a bit more time with the books.
Now, he too had turned into a corpse.
And days after the event, the Government Office seemed to have vanished without a trace.
No one came to investigate.
The whole town had already turned into a ghost town!
All surrounding villages had also suffered!
Xiao Luo Xuan clenched his small hands.
"Soul Hall!!!"
Xiao Luo Xuan's hatred for the Soul Hall reached its peak at this moment!
...
In the Celestial Emperor Palace.
Cultivators of the Righteous Alliance saw this scene.
Although the tragic state of the Celestial Emperor at this moment made them feel somewhat gloating,
seeing so many civilians dead still left them feeling furious.
"What exactly was this Soul Hall back in those days to be so rampant?"
"Indeed, if it was for revenge, it's impossible for the whole town to have a grudge against the Soul Hall; isn't this rampant slaughter of mortals?"
"Though the town isn't large, counting the surrounding villages, there are thousands of lives altogether, all slaughtered?"
"Celestial Emperor's edict, cultivators shall not wantonly slaughter mortals, violators will be opposed by all the clans! This Soul Hall is truly too rampant!"
Many cultivators felt angry.
Wanton slaughter of mortals is indeed excessive.
Besides, they felt somewhat unbalanced in their hearts.
Even they, all these years, adhered to the Celestial Emperor's edict without daring for any transgression.
After all, this decree wasn't issued casually by the Celestial Emperor; it would indeed be enforced!
Especially having witnessed the iron-blooded means of the Celestial Emperor, even seeing him overturn seven emperors with a flip of his hand.
No one dared to defy this decree any longer.
What kind of force is this Soul Hall that they dare to be so rampant?
Luo Lixing looked at the scene, with a somewhat complicated expression.
At this moment, her lips parted slightly.
"Actually, before the Celestial Emperor... before that person ascended the throne, things weren't like this.
Back then, cultivators could slaughter mortals as they pleased based on their will.
To the point where many went as far as sacrificing entire cities just to practice evil techniques.
It wasn't until that person took the throne that this situation gradually ceased."
In just this aspect, it was indeed a contribution made by the Celestial Emperor to the world.
Other people, upon hearing this, couldn't help but feel a bit shocked.
So the matter of cultivators not wantonly slaughtering mortals...
Only came to be formally after the Celestial Emperor took the throne?
Wang Teng saw the expressions of many change, and he secretly thought it was bad.
These people are his resolute allies; how can they have such feelings towards the Celestial Emperor!
"Everyone, even if the Celestial Emperor had some contribution in this matter.
But don't forget, although he doesn't allow cultivators to slaughter civilians wantonly,
he himself, in a fit of anger, slaughtered an entire city of civilians.
Isn't this like only allowing the prefects to set fire, but not letting the people light lamps?
The Celestial Emperor is evil itself!"
With Wang Teng's words.
The others thought it over and agreed.
Indeed, the Celestial Emperor, in a fit of rage, once slaughtered an entire city.
Forbidding others, yet doing so himself.
It's clearly a case of allowing the prefects to set fires while preventing the people from lighting lamps.
Double standards are always the most detestable!
Thinking about this, many immediately felt that the Celestial Emperor indeed deserved death.
...
In the scene, the small town had already turned into a ghost city.
Xiao Luo Xuan memorized the name Soul Hall firmly in his heart, never to forget for this lifetime!
As the entire city had become a ghost town, now shrouded in thick death energy.
It seemed influenced by some Daoist Technique, even the food had withered and shrunk, becoming inedible.
Xiao Luo Xuan dared not stay long, but he was certain the Soul Hall people had long left.
Back in the village, he solemnly set up graves for his father and mother.
"Dad, Mom, rest assured.
Your child will definitely live well, and in the future will find the murderers of the Soul Hall to avenge you!
Father, Mother, and also...
Your child plans to go beyond the mountain, wait for me!"
Xiao Luo Xuan planned to go beyond the mountain and have a look.
This place is now engulfed in death energy.
Staying longer, perhaps even he, the living, might not be able to endure.
Xiao Luo Xuan took hunting tools, carrying the Hunting Bow and the Arrow.
Setting off towards the other side of the mountain!
When thirsty, he picked some wild fruits to quench his hunger.
When hungry, he used the Hunting Bow to hunt for game to fill his stomach.
However, even though Xiao Luo Xuan was a skilled fisherman before, he had never hunted.
Initially clueless, gradually, he found the Technique.
However, just as Xiao Luo Xuan was dragging his weary body, about to cross the mountain to reach the other side.
"Roar!!"
Suddenly, a beast's roar echoed in the forest!
This roar, like a tiger's cry in the forest, sent tremors through Xiao Luo Xuan's entire body.
"Oh no!"
The next moment, before Xiao Luo Xuan could hide.
A gigantic suspended crystal white tiger suddenly appeared!
