Chapter 3: How dare you threaten my sister after blocking her way?
Less than two minutes after the school bell rang, the gate of Yinhai No. 2 Middle School was already crowded with people.
A huge wave of students surged out, noisy and bustling, full of youthful energy.
Lu Jingchen stood under the shade of a tree by the roadside, wearing a faded old T-shirt.
He was still a little dazed, but his eyes were fixed on the students walking out.
Her fingertips clenched until they turned white, and she even held her breath, afraid of missing that figure etched into her very bones.
Who would have thought that I would spend three thousand years in the world of cultivation?
From a nobody trampled underfoot, he transformed into a top-tier powerhouse respected by the entire world.
After enduring the heavenly tribulation with my life on the line, when I opened my eyes, only three years had passed on the blue planet that gave me birth and nurtured me.
Qingluan, your brother is back.
He silently repeated the words to himself, his eyes welling up with tears.
Suddenly, his gaze froze.
Not far away, a little girl who was as thin as a sheet of paper came into his view.
The little girl was wearing a school uniform with pilling collar from washing, and her head was bowed low.
He walked quickly, as if hiding from something, and plunged into a narrow alley where there were hardly any people.
"Qingluan!"
Lu Jingchen's voice went hoarse instantly, and his voice trembled as he shouted.
Without a second thought, he strode off and quickly followed.
The narrow alley was shady and cool, with little sunlight.
Lu Qingyuan clutched a dented aluminum lunchbox in her hand and walked quickly.
His shoulders were tense, and he kept glancing back at me, exuding a sense of panic.
Lu Jingchen stood at the alley entrance, watching that thin figure from behind.
The obsession of three thousand years, the longing day and night, all stuck in my throat.
Her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
"Qingluan..."
He shouted again, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
Lu Qingyuan's body suddenly stiffened, as if struck by lightning, and she froze on the spot.
A crisp clang rang out.
The lunchbox in her hand fell to the ground, spilling the food all over the floor.
She turned around slowly and saw the face standing at the alley entrance.
His pupils instantly shrank to the size of pinpoints, his eyes filled with overwhelming terror.
"what!"
A scream shattered the silence of the alley.
Without a second thought, she turned and ran into the depths of the alley, her steps faltering, and she nearly fell to the ground several times.
"Qingluan! Why are you running away!"
Lu Jingchen panicked and flashed forward, instantly blocking her path.
"I'm your brother! Don't you recognize me?"
"Get away from me! Don't come any closer! Get away from me!"
Lu Qingyuan was like a madwoman, waving her hands and pushing him desperately, tears streaming down her face like a broken string of pearls.
Her voice was filled with hysterical resentment and hatred, as well as an unconcealable fear.
"I don't have a brother like you! Get out!"
"Don't come looking for me again! I already consider you dead!"
"Three years! You haven't even sent a letter! What are you doing back now?!"
Lu Jingchen froze on the spot, completely dumbfounded.
He reached out to take her hand, but stopped in mid-air, unsure whether to go forward or back.
"Qingluan, what are you talking about?"
His voice was full of confusion and heartache.
He knew that his sudden disappearance would definitely cause his family a lot of trouble.
But he never expected that his sister's hatred for him would be so deep.
Just then, a smirking laugh came from around the corner of the alley.
"Hehe, little girl, run, keep running!"
"Let's see where you can hide today!"
Two sleazy-looking men swaggered out from around the corner.
Both men were brandishing switchblades, the blades gleaming coldly in the shady alley.
They blocked the alley entrance in just a few steps, completely sealing off the road.
Lu Qingyuan's face instantly lost all color, turning as white as paper.
Her body trembled uncontrollably, and she instinctively shrank back, hiding behind Lu Jingchen.
He clenched his teeth so tightly that his lips were almost bleeding.
"It's you, you little brat! All I asked you to do was sign that piece of paper, right?"
The man on the left spat, his face fierce, his eyes lecherously scanning her body.
"You're so indecisive, aren't you ungrateful?"
"Hurry up and sign this letter of understanding, or else... Hmph, you'll be sorry!"
"You're dreaming!"
Lu Qingyuan's voice was trembling, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered.
"If you dare touch me, I'll call the police right now and have all of you bastards arrested!"
"Call the police? Hahahaha! That's hilarious!"
The man on the right laughed so hard he was doubled over, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Are you out of your mind? Do you really think we guys in this line of work are afraid of going to jail?"
He took a step forward, slashing the switchblade against the wall.
The piercing creaking sound sent chills down one's spine.
"When we brothers went in, it was like going back to our mothers' home; we only stayed for two days before coming out."
The man on the left took over the conversation, staring at Lu Qingyuan with a sinister smile.
"But what about you? You're a young girl, still in school, right?"
"If your reputation is ruined, your entire future will be over."
Lu Qingyuan's body trembled even more violently.
She closed her eyes in despair, hot tears streaming down her cheeks.
The grievances, helplessness, and fear of the past three years all surged up at this moment.
My brother is missing, my family is in trouble, my mother is sick, and now I'm being driven to the brink by these bastards.
She really couldn't hold on any longer.
Just then, a bone-chilling cold instantly enveloped the entire alley.
Despite it being the middle of summer, the temperature in the alleyway plummeted to freezing.
Even the wind stopped, and the air was filled with a suffocating murderous intent.
Lu Jingchen took a step forward and stood firmly in front of Lu Qingyuan.
He completely shielded her behind him, his face expressionless, as cold as ice.
He squeezed out two words through his teeth.
"court death."
The two men were taken aback at first, then they laughed.
"Hey? Where did this brat come from?"
The man on the left glanced at Lu Jingchen up and down, his face full of disdain.
"Who are you? If you don't want to die, get the hell out of here."
"Don't meddle in other people's business, or you'll be dealt with too!"
"Why bother arguing with him?"
The man on the right brandished his switchblade, looking menacing.
"Say another word, and I'll split your head open and bleed you dry!"
Lu Jingchen stood still, not even lifting his eyelids.
The voice was so cold it could freeze you to death.
"I am the King of Hell who will send you two on your way."
The two men looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Is this kid out of his mind?"
"The King of Hell? You're asking for trouble!"
The two men, cursing and swearing, charged at Lu Jingchen, fists clenched.
The switchblade in his hand was thrust straight towards Lu Jingchen's chest.
They seemed to want to stab Lu Jingchen right through.
Lu Jingchen stood still, without moving an inch.
He slowly raised his right hand and gently grabbed at the air as the two people rushed towards him.
The next second, the two men who had been rushing forward suddenly froze in place.
It was as if an invisible giant hand was tightly gripping their necks.
His feet left the ground, and he was suspended in mid-air.
His face instantly turned a deep liver color, and his eyeballs almost bulged out of their sockets.
It could only make strange hoarse noises as it desperately kicked its legs, but it couldn't break free even a fraction of an inch.
The switchblade in his hand clattered to the ground, completely useless.
"Uh... Let... Let me go..."
"Help... Help me..."
The two tried desperately to shout, but could only manage to squeeze out a few broken syllables.
Lu Jingchen's eyes remained completely calm.
The spiritual energy in this desolate place is so scarce, it's like watered-down fake wine, so you can only use the cultivation level of the Golden Core stage.
But crushing you two scum would be more than enough for me.
He thought coldly to himself.
Immediately, he clenched his fist.
Bang!Bang!
Two muffled thuds echoed through the alley.
The two men's heads exploded instantly.
The blood mist that was about to dissipate was tightly enveloped by an invisible force, preventing even a single drop from spilling out.
Lu Jingchen flicked his fingertip, and a wisp of golden flame, thin as a spider's thread, flew out from his fingertip.
"Go, real fire."
His voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.
The flames burst into flames the moment they touched the two headless corpses.
The flames flickered rapidly, yet not a single drop of heat escaped.
In the blink of an eye, the two corpses, along with the bloodstains, were burned clean.
Not even a trace of ash remained; it vaporized directly into the air.
The alleyway instantly fell into a deathly silence.
Even the wind had stopped, and apart from the lunchbox that had fallen earlier, there wasn't a trace left on the ground.
It was as if those two men had never been there at all.
Lu Qingyuan collapsed to the ground, completely dumbfounded.
She stared blankly at the empty ground in front of her, her mind completely blank, as if her computer had crashed.
His lips trembled for a long time before he managed to squeeze out a broken sentence.
"Where...where are they?"
She slowly raised her head and looked at Lu Jingchen standing in front of her.
His eyes were filled with overwhelming fear, as if he were looking at a monster he had never seen before.
His voice was trembling so badly that his teeth were chattering.
"What... what did you do to them?"
