SEVEN POWERS OF THE GOD GATE

Chapter 5. Lim Family Massacre

"You rotten bastard! A deformed youth like you dares to boast!" Iron Nail Wolf swore.

The man dressed in wolf skin was infuriated by the words and demeanor of the young man dressed all in red. He thought the young man was blind, so he called him a cripple. He, who was already filled with rage, immediately moved to lunge.

But to the surprise of everyone in the place, Before the Iron Hoof Wolf could attack, his body was instantly dismembered and scattered on the floor, with blood splattering.

"Hueekkk!"

Several people immediately vomited blood upon seeing the Iron Hoof Wolf's horrible state. The young man didn't seem to move at all. But what happened was truly horrifying. A very fierce skill. A high-level swordsmanship called 'Heartless Swordsmanship'.

"How cruel!" said Leader Lim in horror.

Then he shouted for the warriors and martial artists in the area to attack. They prepared to attack, even though fear was still thick in their hearts. But the will to live overcame that fear and made them determined to live.

Suddenly the red-clothed youth opened his eyes. The eyes shone with a bright red light. A terrifying situation then occurred. A wave of reddish-colored power instantly emanated from the young man's body and spread rapidly in a circle from small to large, hitting everyone there.

Everyone in the Lim family residence was suddenly unable to move. Their faces turned pale. Everyone was in the same state.

"Why can't I move...?"

Leader Lim's voice trailed off. He fell to the ground covered in blood. Her body was cut into several pieces. It wasn't just Leader Lim who was in that state. Everyone who was there experienced the same thing. It was a horrible massacre.

"FIRE STAR SECT TURN NEXT"

The young man dressed all in red then disappeared. He left a message on the wall, written in blood that flowed on the ground without touching it. Amazingly, the blood then froze so that it did not fade. And it was even greater that, if someone had seen the incident, he would not have known how the young man had done it. The young man then disappeared without a trace, a sound, or a shadow.

After a long time, a movement was seen on one of the tall trees not far from the Lim Family Leader's residence. It was a white shadow that descended with a very light movement. That person turned out to be a Sword Angel, one of the Four Angels of the Martial World. There were blood stains running down the old man's abdomen.

"What a demon-like skill!"

Awe and horror came out of the Sword Angel's mouth. He had been in that place for almost half a day. He had deliberately arrived there early and then remained motionless so as not to let the person threatening the Lim family be discovered.

The Sword Angel's abdomen was ripped open just from being hit by the force wave emitted by that young man. If he had been closer, he would have also fallen victim to the heartless swordsmanship of the red-clad youth.

A week later

Tension now prevails in the city of Xianghe, which is about a thousand miles away from Hong Sha. The townspeople seemed to have very little activity. Some of them were even seen leaving the city with as little as they could carry.

Fear gripped the city as it was threatened by a sect that wanted to seize the leadership of the city. The name of the sect was the Red Bear Sect, which was famous for the ferocity and cruelty of its members.

But that feeling of fear didn't seem to apply to a young man dressed in a compact red vest-like garment who seemed to be sitting casually under a tree while blowing his flute. His eyes were closed; he was neither asleep nor sleepy. If anyone had seen him, they would have concluded that he was blind. Even so, he seemed to be enjoying his natural surroundings.

The rhythm of the flute played by the young man was very melodious. The birds chirped as if singing along with the rhythm of the song played by the young man in red. It was not uncommon for people who passed by to stop for a moment just to enjoy it. For a moment, they could forget the fear that engulfed the Xianghe townspeople. After the young man stopped, they resumed their journey.

The young man then got up. He walked towards the entrance of Xianghe city, which was not far from the tree where he rested earlier. His eyes were still closed. He walked slowly forward with an expressionless face. That would further convince people that the young man was a blind man who could not see.

Surprisingly, even though his eyes were closed, he was able to walk well without stumbling or being disturbed. Yet the young man did not use a walking stick to help him walk. It was as if he could see all around him with his eyes closed.

The red-clad youth continued walking until he came to a restaurant. He entered without the slightest difficulty. Even though the people inside were very worried about him. He immediately sat on one of the empty seats in the corner, a little away from the people.

Seeing him, another young man in his twenties approached him.

"Brother, may I sit here?" he asked the red-clothed youth.

The person asking nodded and smiled. The smile of a handsome young man Even the young man who approached him could not help but feel admiration. Even though he himself was a handsome young man. Had he been a woman, his heart would have flown at that smile.

"Brother, my name is Chen, She Yan. May I know your name?" The newcomer immediately opened the conversation after sitting across from the red-clothed youth.

The red-clothed youth smiled back. "I'm Chia Yun," he said as he folded his palms together in front of his chest.

Greetings, brother Chia," Yan Chen returned the salute.

The young man was silent for a moment. He looked at the red-clothed youth named Chia Yun seriously. It was as if he was looking for something from the young man before him.

"Is this Chia brother a family member of the Red Eagle Swordsman Chia Haocun of Immortal Flame Island?"

Chia Yun shook his head. "I am not a member of that famous family," he replied then, briefly and calmly.

Yan Chen frowned. He then asked, "Where exactly is brother Chia going?"

Yan Chen asked while summoning a servant. He then asked Chia Yun for permission to order the restaurant's most favorite dish. He also said that he would treat the young man.

"I'm just a traveler passing through the city, brother Yan," Chia Yun replied as he nodded his head to Yan Chen's offer.
