Chapter 110: The Scent of Humanity

“Good!”

Seeing the sword piercing his heart, Hua Chonglang said “Good!” once again.

“This sword strike is barely passable!”

If it were his prime, this sword strike would be nothing more than child’s play, but now he couldn’t dodge it.

This sword could kill him, it was a threat to his life!

“But, not enough! Still not enough!” Hua Chonglang struck Hua Xiaocheng with his right palm, sending him flying dozens of meters away.

Hua Xiaocheng was covered in frost, he saw the blood gushing from Hua Chonglang’s chest.

The wound didn’t heal slowly like the one on his throat, instead, it was bloody and kept bleeding.

Hua Xiaocheng was overjoyed, this meant his father no longer had the strength to heal his wounds.

Therefore, all he had to do was use all his strength to deliver a fatal blow to Old Demon Hua!

Either he dies or I perish!

He spat out a mouthful of cold air, it was his father’s power, so cold that even his bone marrow felt like ice.

Now, he couldn’t care less about the remaining power within his body.

In his eyes, there was only one person.

His target was also only one person.

Kill him! Kill him!

As long as he killed him, he could end the nightmare that had plagued him!

Kill him!

“Bang!” With a sound, Hua Xiaocheng’s hair ornament broke, his hair flew upwards, and his entire body was filled with sword Qi that sparkled with points of light.

The sword is the blade of the heart, and at this moment, all the stubbornness and unyieldingness in his heart transformed into power, all for the sake of killing his father.

Thousands of sword Qi, like a storm, followed Hua Xiaocheng’s figure, turning into a beam of light in his hand!

Having escaped from the Hua Family for over twenty years, he had asked himself countless times, was there still hope?

Did a mediocre person like him still have hope of defeating his father?

Again and again, day after day.

He chose to believe in hope.

If there was no hope, then what was the meaning of his life?

Therefore, this beam of sword light was hope!

It was Hua Xiaocheng’s final move! It was a move that carried all his strength and hope!

All for the sake of killing his father!

Hua Chonglang looked at the shining sword light. He wanted to resist but gave up.

How fast was this sword strike? Severely injured and dying, he no longer had the strength to resist it.

Besides, his son had grown up and become successful!

He was relieved.

He was very happy today!

His duel with the world’s number one expert was exhilarating. Though there were regrets, it was refreshing, making him feel that life had meaning!

Not for the trash of the Hua Family, not for hatred, but for her to live on, for himself to climb to the peak.

Secondly, his son had grown up, even in that kind of environment, his heart was still filled with light. He was much stronger than a murderer like him who only knew how to kill. He could shoulder the burden of the Hua Family!

He had no regrets in his life!

It was better to die at the hands of his own son than at the hands of some other clown!

He had long felt that his life was tiring and boring!

“You…” Hua Xiaocheng looked at Hua Chonglang who had given up resisting. The sword light in his hand pierced through Hua Chonglang’s chest without any suspense, leaving a large hole the size of a bowl.

“Very good! Very good!” Hua Chonglang looked at his son with satisfaction.

“You’re great! Worthy of being my son, Hua Chonglang!”

“I’m very satisfied!” Hua Chonglang said with a smile.

A smile?

Since he could remember, Hua Xiaocheng had never seen his father smile!

The only smile he remembered from his father was the one he made when he grinned and killed a few people for fun!

“Father! What are you pretending for?” He looked at the terrifying demon king in his memory, who was now showing a genuine smile, and he felt confused and uneasy.

It was more confusing than if he had killed him!

“Good, take good care of your younger brother and sister…” Hua Chonglang’s intact right hand gently patted Hua Xiaocheng’s shoulder, just like Hua Xiaocheng had patted Hua Xiaomei’s.

“No! Impossible!!” Hua Xiaocheng felt like he had been struck by lightning. He looked at Hua Chonglang’s faintly loving gaze.

He didn’t want to believe it!

That was his father!

That was the father who often appeared in his nightmares to kill him!

“You’re lying! You’re lying!!”

Hua Xiaocheng was furious, he felt helpless and lost!

“It’s all you! It’s all you!!”

Hua Xiaocheng swung the sword light in his hand, aiming to chop at Hua Chonglang’s neck!

✿✿✿

He wanted to kill Hua Chonglang!

If he didn’t kill Hua Chonglang, what was the point of his life!

What was the point!

Was it just to be a pawn in his hand, to be manipulated and controlled at will??

Fuck that!

Fuck that!!

Hua Chonglang faced the sword calmly, without any movement, waiting for the sword to fall.

Waiting for the end of his life!

“Meow!”

Suddenly, a shrill cat’s cry echoed across the desert!

A cat’s paw blocked Hua Xiaocheng’s sword strike, then it picked up Hua Chonglang in its mouth and ran away!

“Cat Venerable!” Hua Xiaocheng recognized who it was.

Back when he escaped from the Hua Family, Cat Venerable had secretly helped him, allowing him to successfully escape from the hellish Hua Family!

He watched as Cat Venerable disappeared with a few flashes, carrying both the cat and the person, and then looked at the sword in his hand.

Even a bright sword couldn’t give him an answer…

Hua Chonglang’s vision blurred, and he felt himself flying.

He had experienced this feeling when he was young and escaped from the Hua Family.

“It’s you, the nosy big cat…”

Master Cat flicked his mouth, tossing Hua Chonglang, whom he was carrying, onto his back.

“Ptui ptui ptui…” He spat a few times, then transmitted his thoughts to Hua Chonglang, “You villain, haven’t you bathed in days? You stink!”

“I’m not being nosy! It’s just that I feel there’s a scent of humanity in you, stronger than other villains. You might become the next Ah Ye.” He said in a slightly aged voice.

“King Ye Jufu?” Hua Chonglang thought of King Ye Jufu, who had preached universal love and brotherhood hundreds of years ago, and said:

“How can I be worthy of such a person?”

“I’m just someone who lives for himself!”

Master Cat continued, “Ah Ye said that it’s good enough for a person to live for himself. Only by living for oneself can one feel the pain in others’ hearts, can one generate sympathy, compassion, understanding, and then love others.”

“…” Hua Chonglang remained silent. He wasn’t that kind of person, and he couldn’t understand such thoughts.

“Cat Venerable! Where are you taking me?” Hua Chonglang asked.

“To your home? Your home still has plenty of gold and silver, perfect for your recovery.” Master Cat said.

Gold and silver have nothing to do with recovery!

Hua Chonglang’s eyelids twitched, and he said, “No! The Hua Family belongs to them now, it’s no longer my home!”

“Oh? Then where to?” Master Cat asked curiously.

“How about the Extreme North?” Hua Chonglang didn’t know where to go either.

“Too cold, I’m not going!” Master Cat decisively refused.

As everyone knows, cats are animals that fear the cold.

“Then let’s go to the South Sea! I heard it’s very warm!” Hua Chonglang suggested.

“Not bad! Not bad!” Master Cat’s eyes lit up, and he said, “That villain Liu Sanjue is said to be doing well in the south! Let’s go freeload off him!”

“Ha~” Hua Chonglang imagined the two of them arriving in the south, eating and drinking at Liu Sanjue’s expense, while Liu Sanjue trembled with anger but didn’t dare to speak.

His expression would be priceless!

The first season of fatherly love and filial piety in the Hua Family concludes!
