The Infinite Mystery

After killing everyone, the man in black once again took a round of the village to search for any survivor. He also passed by Feng'er but seeing his bloodied body, he thought that Feng'er was already dead. The man in black did not even check if Feng'er was really dead or not.

The man in black was very proud and arrogant. He was very confident that no one would be alive by now so after taking a round of the village, he left with a few sentences, "Mortals have no right to live in this world. This world belongs to only us, demonic cultivators. You all are meant to be slaughter by me. It's your honor to be used as sacrifices by us, demonic cultivators."

.....

Even after the man in black had already gone for a long time, Feng'er did not open his eyes nor did he made any movement. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

For some reason, Qin Feng's eyes had already gone wet as tears rolled down on his cheeks when he saw the mother of Feng'er being cut in halves. He did not know why but he felt like he just saw someone very important to him being killed. Previously, he could do nothing but watch everyone being slaughtered by the man in black.

He was helpless.

He took a few steps forward and arrived in front of Feng'er. Then he tried to reach out his hand to check why Feng'er had not opened his eyes but again he felt helpless as he failed to touch the body of Feng'er.

But looking carefully, Qin Feng estimated that Feng'er did not open his eyes because he had already fainted.

Two hours later, Feng'er finally opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was his mother's body that was now divided into parts. Tears again rolled down from his eyes as he realized that his only family, his mother was no longer with him.

"Mother, mother!" Feng'er started to weep and his voice of crying became louder and louder. He kept weeping and again fainted.

Qin Feng stayed by Feng'er side and helplessly kept watching everything. Seeing the ten years old kid cry painfully for his mother, his heart melted. He wanted to embrace Feng'er and console him but he was helpless as he could do nothing.

Suddenly, the footsteps of horses sounded. Qin Feng turned his head and saw a few men making their way toward Feng'er while riding on their horses.

These horses were not normal horses. Below their feet were a whirlpool of air that gave the horses ability to run much faster than a car.

Only in a few seconds, those people had already entered the village.

Qin Feng was shocked to see the speed of these horses.

"We are late. That demonic cultivator has already slaughtered the entire village. He must have gone for the next village. We should hurry up and stop him otherwise there will be more and more villages that will be slaughter by that demonic cultivator."

The middle-aged man in lead spoke as he looked at the village that was already covered in blood and many body parts of hundreds of villagers.

"Fu Chen, check the village and see if anyone is alive. We need to hurry and go to the next village. After checking the village, come to the next village that is five miles away from here in the south direction." The middle-aged man again spoke.

"Yes, sixth elder!"

A middle-aged man jumped down from his horse and responded to the previous middle-aged man.

"Everyone, let's continue to move forward!"

Saying this, leaving behind Fu Chen, Sixth Elder left with others in the south direction to catch the demonic cultivator that was continuously killing mortals mercilessly.

After the group of people was gone, Fu Chen looked at the corpses of the villagers and sighed. Then he started to look for any survivor according to the order he got from the Sixth Elder. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

Not long after, he found Feng'er and heaved a sigh of relief seeing that he has just fainted and there was no injury on his body.

Fu Chen did not leave immediately but started to wait for Feng'er to wake up. Only one hour later did Feng'er once again regained his consciousness.

He raised his head and saw Fu Chen looking at him. Feng'er looked at Fu Chen expressionlessly and did not say anything. Then he turned his head to look for his mother's body.

He still remembered his mother's last smile. In order to protect him, she sacrificed herself. She told him to lie down on the ground in front of her and when she was cut into two, her blood spurted onto the body of Feng'er, coloring Feng'er deep red. He looked like a person who bled too much.

Only because of this, the man in black misunderstood Feng'er and left without checking if he was alive or not.

Feng'er was very smart. He understood very well what his mother has done for him. He kept looking at his mother's body without blinking his eyes. He did not even move his body a single inch.

"Is she your mother?" Fu Chen saw that Qin Feng was staring at the body of a middle-aged woman without any care of the world. He immediately understood the relationship between this woman and Feng'er so he arrived near Feng'er and asked in a low voice.

Feng'er turned his head to look at Fu Chen and nodded his head, confirming Fu Chen that she was his mother.

"Do you want revenge?" Fu Chen again asked.

This time, a fluctuation finally appeared on the face of Feng'er when he heard Fu Chen. He again turned his head to look at Fu Chen then he looked at his mother's dead body.

Finally, he clenched his head and then loosened it. After some time, he finally asked, "Do you know who killed my mother and everyone in the village?"

"It was a demonic cultivator!"

"What is a demonic cultivator?"

"Sigh! Before knowing about demonic cultivators, you have to know about cultivators and cultivation." Fu Chen said and again asked, "Do want to hear about it?"

Feng'er nodded his head.

Fu Chen smiled and said, "Cultivation is a process where people meditate and absorb the spirit energy from heaven and earth. People cultivate to try to acquire immortality. Through cultivation, one can control the wind and destroy mountains. One can also fly in the sky. Cultivation is divided into many levels and after each level, one's lifespan will increase by tens of years."

"There are two types of cultivators. They are called righteous path cultivators and corrupt path cultivators. Corrupt path cultivators are also called demonic cultivators as they can do anything in order to increase their strength and get whatever they want."

"The man who killed your mother and other villagers was also a demonic cultivator. He killed everyone in your village just to increase his strength."

After saying all of this, Fu Chen stared at Feng'er to see the astonishment in his eyes. He wanted to see him surprised but he was disappointed as Feng'er was still expressionless. There was no expression on his face.

"Are you a righteous path cultivator?" Feng'er again asked.

"Of course I am. I came here with my brothers to catch the demonic cultivator who killed everyone in your village."

"Then where are others?"

"They are still chasing after the demonic cultivator. I stayed here to search for survivors. Normally, there are no survivors in this kind of situation but luckily, in this village, I found a survivor. That's you. You are the sole survivor in the entire village." said Fu Chen.

When Feng'er heard Fu Chen, the scene of his mother sacrificing herself to give him a chance to live flashed in his mind as tears once appeared in his eyes. This was the second time when Fu Chen saw a certain expression on the face of Feng'er.

"It's ok. If you want to cry, you should cry. Don't stop yourself from crying. You should let our all your emotion and grievance. This will help you lighten your heart." Fu Chen consoled Feng'er.

Feng'er started to sob slowly then his sobbing began to become faster and louder and the next moment, he fell down his mother's body and started to cry loudly. Fu Chen's heart melted when he saw Feng'er crying like this.

Anyone's heart would have ached if they would have been there and see how Feng'er was crying for his mother. From his wailing, once could see how painful the heart of Feng'er was at the moment.

Fu Chen did not stop Feng'er from crying. He let him cry. After a very long time, Feng'er finally stopped crying.

Then Fu Chen helped Feng'er cremating his mother. After completing the last rites for his mother, Feng'er went to Fu Chen and asked, "What should I do to become a cultivator?"

"Don't worry about that. I will help you to become a cultivator." Fu Chen smiled and asked, "But before that, let me introduce myself. I'm Fu Chen, an outer court elder of the Blue Star Sect."

Feng'er nodded his head and said, "I am Qin Feng!"
