Chapter 676: Fleeing for Your Life Alone?

"My sword..."

A flash of horror crossed the heart of the Du family head. This sword was a sharp blade that had followed him for most of his life; it could cut iron like mud and was extremely sturdy. Yet, in front of this white-clothed girl, it was like a plastic toy, and she could destroy it without any effort.

"Useless things don't deserve to remain in this world."

The white-clothed girl seemed to have lost patience. She raised her hand casually, and her white sleeve drew an elegant arc in mid-air. The body of the Du family head was like a kite with a broken string, thrown out more than ten meters directly, and he smashed heavily onto the ground.

"Pfft..."

The Du family head spat out a large mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he died without even having time to utter a curse.

The surviving Du family servants saw that their master was dead, lost their backbone, and were even more like a pile of loose sand, beaten to a pulp by the members of the Azure Wolf Hall.

"Within five minutes, deal with them all."

Zhong Ling's eye color turned from deep to light, and her tone had no emotion at all.

Xu Tian, who was in the crowd, pressed Miaomiao's little head into his arms and blocked her ears, not letting her see such a cruel and bloody scene.

This was Wuji Island; killing was a common occurrence here, and even the onlookers didn't feel anything.

Such an experience was something Xu Tian had never thought of.

After the servants at the gate were all cruelly killed, the people from the Azure Wolf Hall swaggered into the Du family courtyard, and soon, exceptionally shrill screams came from inside.

The screams were one after another, but soon they gradually died down, and silence was restored.

Xu Tian only felt a chill all over his body. He had encountered former Azure Wolf Hall members like Brother Wuyu and others before, and he hadn't sensed strong murderous intent on them, but he hadn't expected that the people of this organization would all be so ruthless.

The terrifying bloody smell drifted out from the courtyard, and the perpetrators of this massacre filed out again, as if nothing had happened, and disappeared into the street corner in a grand manner.

Xu Tian didn't look any further, held Miaomiao, retreated from the crowd, and quickly rushed back to the Xiang family.

On Wuji Island, no one could stop such a tragedy.

Even the Wuji Martial Arts Association wouldn't care about this kind of private grudge, and as for the scattered martial arts families, they wouldn't intervene even more.

Xu Tian entered the villa from the back door of the Xiang family as usual, passed through the courtyard, walked into the villa gate, and only then put down the little girl he had been holding tightly.

Although Miaomiao had covered her ears, she was inevitably still frightened by the scene just now. However, her personality was obedient, and even if she was frightened, she didn't cry or make a scene.

"Why did you come back so soon?" Mrs. Xiang walked out of the living room after hearing the movement. "I thought you would take Miaomiao out for dinner... Mr. Xu, what's wrong with you two... why do your faces look so ugly?"

After Mrs. Xiang walked to the entrance, she almost immediately noticed the abnormality of the two, one big and one small.

"When Miaomiao and I were shopping, we encountered people from the Azure Wolf Hall." Xu Tian took a deep breath and led Miaomiao into the living room.

"You saw people from the Azure Wolf Hall?" Mrs. Xiang's face turned pale suddenly upon hearing this, and her tone even carried a slight tremor. "You didn't provoke them, did you?"

"No," Xu Tian shook his head. "A family was exterminated by them, not a single survivor was left. Miaomiao was also frightened because of this incident."

"So that's it." Mr. Xiang, who was sitting in the living room, let out a slow sigh upon hearing this. "Living on Wuji Island, such things are unavoidable."

It wasn't that Mr. Xiang and the others were indifferent, but such things happened often on Wuji Island, and they had long been accustomed to it.

If ordinary families offended those powerful forces, they would all have no good end.

And among those forces, the one that must not be offended the most was the Azure Wolf Hall.

Other forces might still reason, but the Azure Wolf Hall were all villains who killed without blinking; there was simply no reasoning to be had, and no room for negotiation.

Anyone who offended them and had a kill order placed on them, whether an individual or a family, would only have a dead end.

"Mr. Xu, you hand Miaomiao to us, go upstairs and take a bath first to calm your emotions. Dinner will be served in a while." Mrs. Xiang considerately took the stunned Miaomiao to her side. Recently, this little girl had been following Xu Tian, and except for sleeping, she was almost inseparable from him.

But Xu Tian was a guest after all, and they couldn't keep letting him look after the child.

"Then I..."

"It's not good! It's not good!"

Just as Xu Tian stood up, he saw Xiang Yunfei running down the stairs stumbling.

"What's wrong?" Mr. and Mrs. Xiang saw their daughter so panicked and also stood up from the sofa somewhat nervously.

"I... I found this in Miaomiao's bedroom..."

The blood drained from Xiang Yunfei's face, and she tremblingly handed the thing in her hand to the Xiang couple.

"This is..."

The Xiang couple saw the thing Xiang Yunfei brought over, their faces changed greatly, and panic and despair appeared in their eyes.

Xu Tian looked sideways and saw Mr. Xiang tightly clutching a hard card in the shape of a scabbard, with a familiar wolf head printed on it.

"Something from the Azure Wolf Hall?"

"This is the kill order of the Azure Wolf Hall..." Mrs. Xiang's body swayed, and she fell directly onto the sofa. "Why would this thing appear in our house?"

"What exactly is going on? Our Xiang family has never provoked the Azure Wolf Hall!"

Xiang Yunfei cried in fear and hurriedly helped Mrs. Xiang up.

"Anyone who receives a kill order will not have a good end." Mr. Xiang's face was solemn. "But I really can't think of where the Xiang family offended them."

"I don't know how this kill order was sent over; it was placed in the toy box by Miaomiao," Xiang Yunfei said.

"Perhaps it was thrown into our courtyard by people from the Azure Wolf Hall," Mr. Xiang said in a deep voice. "It happened to be picked up by Miaomiao and treated as a toy. The nanny at home didn't recognize this thing, so she didn't pay attention."

"Then what should we do now?" Xiang Yunfei asked anxiously. "Dad, Mom, you take Miaomiao and run away quickly, I'll deal with them!"

"Where can we run to?" Mr. Xiang gave a bitter smile. "On the entire Wuji Island, no matter which city, they have their eyes and ears; we can't escape."

Moreover, as a father, how could he abandon his own daughter and flee for his life alone?

"We can't escape, but Mr. Xu can!" Mrs. Xiang suddenly thought of something and hurriedly picked up Miaomiao and stuffed her into Xu Tian's arms.

"Mrs. Xiang, you..."

"Mr. Xu, only you can protect Miaomiao now. You are not a member of the Xiang family. While they haven't come yet, hurry up and take Miaomiao and run away!"

Those people from the Azure Wolf Hall wouldn't investigate one by one whether the people in the villa were members of the Xiang family. ===== CHAPTER 677 =====
