Chapter 7: Fleeing To The Ruined Temple That No Longer Exists
Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Su Mu stood in front of the hundreds of starving people, releasing an intense killing intent!
Not a single starving person took a step forward. Their faces were all full of fear.
After acknowledging Lu Feng as his master, the Lu family had provided him with all the resources he needed to practice martial arts, including the necessities of food and water.
The quality of his diet had multiplied tenfold.
In addition, he practiced martial arts every day, so he was full of Qi and vigor.
Now, Su Mu’s had grown to eight feet, which was a little more than 1.9 meters.
All eight feet of his frame was packed with muscle. Even if he stood there, still like a statue, he gave off a strong sense of oppression!
It was like an iron tower!
…
Just like that, Su Mu alone with his de, temporarily intimidating the starving people.
But it was only temporary.
These people were starving.
And more starving people wereing up from behind.
Su Mu knew that when the number of starving people reached a certain level, they would ovee their fear of him.
Therefore, beforeing here, Su Mu had already informed Lu Tiang to leave with his family through the back door.
He had to bring some food, but not too much, or it would be too conspicuous.
Su Mu was waiting for them to leave safely.
…
Time slowly passed.
Be it for Su Mu or those starving people, every second was extremely torturous.
Half an hourter, the Lu family’s courtyard was filled with starving people.
They squeezed forward bit by bit, pushing the people in front of them to continue moving forward.
Everyone’s emotions had already reached their peak!
Finally, a spark ignited the barrel of gunpowder.
“He’s alone. There are so many people here, how can he stop us all? Kill him, the food is right behind him!”
This sentencepletely ignited the madness and desire in the hearts of all the starving people.
“Right, kill him! Kill him and we’ll have our fill!”
“This boorish man is all alone, why should we be afraid of him?”
“These rich folk are the most despicable. I wonder how much they fed this man, look at his size!”
“Kill him! Kill him!”
The crowd responded one after another.
Many pairs of green eyes stared at him!
He didn’t know if the people behind the crowd had shoved the ones on the front, or if the ones on the front had finally lost their minds.
The crowd began to quickly rush towards Su Mu, each of the starving people’s haggard faces filled with madness.
“You’re looking for death!”
Sensing that the situation wasn’t right, Su Mu shouted angrily and swung his de at them.
The Lu family’s saber techniques were bold and unrestrained, sweeping through the crowd like a meat grinder.
In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and dismembered limbs flew everywhere.
After Lu Feng’s death, there were still four people left in the Lu family.
Lu Tiang and his wife, as well as their children.
Su Mu was certain that not enough time had passed yet for them to have evacuated to a safe ce yet.
Su Mu had to buy them a little more time.
…
Having practiced martial arts for more than half a year, Su Mu had almost entered the realm of a third rated warrior.
It was easy to deal with these starving people who had not eaten for a few days.
However, they came in sheer waves, and Su Mu could not kill all of them.
Moreover, his goal was not to kill, but to buy as much time as possible.
After a few minutes, Su Mu left behind dozens of corpses, jumped over the wall, and disappeared into the darkness.
The Lu family’s old mansion was about to reach the end of its life.
※※※※※※
Under a big tree at the back of the vige, a few figures were moving.
One of them was pacing back and forth, clearly anxious and restless.
“Could something have happened to Su Mu? My brother asked me to take care of him before he died, so he can’t die under my care!”
Lu Tiang was a little anxious.
“Father, don’t worry. Su… Little brother Su is strong and healthy, those starving people can’t do anything to him.”
Lu Tiang’s eldest daughter was 14 years old this year, and she was very beautiful.
She was the one who spoke in from the shadows.
To be honest, Lu Qingqing did not even know how to address Su Mu.
It was weird to call him a “little brother” at that size and with that appearance.
However, he was only eight years old. She couldn’t possibly call him big brother, right?
“Father, sister is right. Brother Su’s martial arts skills are so good that he can take care of those starving people like a farmer with a scythe in a paddy field.”
Lu Tiang’s second son was ten years old.
After being together with Su Mu for half a year, he hadpletely submitted to him and had grown used to calling him big brother without any psychological burden.
“I hope so.”
Their words made Lu Tiang feel a little more at ease.
Sure enough, after a while, the four members of the Lu family saw a tall figure running towards them at high speed.
Who else could it be but Su Mu?
“Are you all right?”
Su Mu nced at the four of them, and after making sure that they were fine, he still asked.
“I’m fine. What should we do now?”
Although Su Mu was covered in blood, it was obvious that it was not his blood.
Lu Tiang was relieved. He asked about his next n.
It was not odd for Lu Tiang to seek advice from this eight-year-old kid.
Su Mu looked like a wise adult, both mentally and physically.
This made Lu Tiang forget about his age.
“This famine will only get worse! Let’s escape. We’ll talk after we get out of here.”
“Alright!”
…
It was the same famine again, but this life was much better than the previous one.
In this life, Su Mu had a strong body and possessed martial arts skills.
Although he had yet to enter the ranks of third rated Warriors, he should be able to protect himself in the famine.
He also brought some food from the Lu Family. If he ate sparingly, he should be able tost until they left Jizhou.
Su Mu thought about it for a moment and believed that he wouldn’t have to die a violent death in this life. He could live to thirty!
Sure enough.
Although the rest of the journey was difficult, it was generally smooth.
Along the way, many people wanted to steal the food that Su Mu and his group had brought, but they were all cut down by his sabre.
After all, he only brought some rations with him, so it wasn’t enough to cause arge-scale robbery.
At that moment, Lu Tiang could not help but feel that his big brother had made the right decision in taking in this disciple!
Without Su Mu’s protection, their family would not have been able to continue on so smoothly.
…
During the following month, the famine only worsened, and the number of starving people increased!
Fortunately, Su Mu and Lu Tiang’s family of four were still alive and well.
However, he was a little thinner and his clothes were a lot more worn out.
Even so, with all the other factors considered, they were far better off than others!
Even so, Su Mu found one matter a little odd, and his heart was a little uneasy.
A few days ago, he had walked through a withered forest and thought of that dpidated temple.
So he went over to take a look, thinking that if he met Li Tiezhu and those people who ate him in his previous life, he would kill them all!
At the same time, they could also save some people who were about to be their prey.
But what Su Mu didn’t expect was that the ruined temple had disappeared!
No matter how hard Su Mu searched, he couldn’t find any trace of it!
But in his previous life, Su Mu was clearly eaten in that broken temple. How could he remember wrongly?
Su Mu could not put the matter to the back of his mind, so he decided to try asking around.
The people fleeing around them were too panicked to answer his questions.
Helplessly, Su Mu could only suppress this matter in his heart.
But after that, he had a strong premonition.
It would not be easy to escape from Jizhou!
