Night King: My Life Journey
Ch-122b. Arrival of guests
Huang Zhong's body immediately trembled upon hearing the soldier's words, his heart beating very fast and his chest felt extremely painful, like it was being pierced many times with a sword, he said, his body felt so limp that it almost fell, his mind was completely chaotic and no longer knew what to say.
Regardless of Li Haochun and the other palace higher-ups, Huang Zhong immediately ran away from the city palace to immediately return to the Huang family residence, instead, the loss of the soldiers and elders might not be too painful for Huang Zhong, as he could recruit other members of his family to replace those positions.
However, losing her only daughter actually dealt a very painful blow to Huang Zhong. All this time, it was only his daughter who made Huang Zhong still have a purpose to live, even Huang Zhong was able to do anything for his daughter, but after hearing about his daughter's death, he said, huang Zhong's life seemed to disappear right then and there.
After arriving at the Huang family's territory, Huang Zhong immediately rushed towards his daughter's residence, not even Huang Zhong paying any heed to the townspeople who were helping to move the corpses of the soldiers, either, all Huang Zhong had in mind now was his daughter, Huang Zhong even wished that his daughter was still fine and the news he heard was a mere lie.
But unfortunately, what Huang Zhong had expected was not the same as reality at all, because right now, right in front of Huang Zhong, it was, his son's body was lying stiff on the bed covered with blood, while his head was lying on the floor which was also soiled by blood.
Huang Zhong then walked slowly toward his son's body, tears of sadness would no longer be able to be dammed by Huang Zhong, even more so when staring at his son's head which had now been detached from his body.
With trembling hands, Huang Zhong then took his son's head and then tried to put it in its original position, in the hope that the child's head could be connected again and the child could live again, but of course it is not possible to happen again, because Huang Rong has died completely.
"Cruel!, truly so cruel!, I will never forgive anyone who did this to my son!" huang Zhong said as he cried hugging his son's body.
After a long time hugging his daughter's body, Huang Zhong then ordered some soldiers to carry the body of his son, in order to be buried properly, even though in a state of mourning, but Huang Zhong still tried to toughen up, so that he can avenge the death of his only child.
**
Time passed very quickly, all the victims of the massacre had also been properly buried, including Huang Rong, the atmosphere of the Huang family which was usually very crowded, immediately turned quiet, and became quiet, as they were all grieving, not only them, even the entire city of Jiesi had become deserted, as everyone was grieving over the events that befell the Huang family.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng who was the mastermind and perpetrator of the Huang family massacre, seemed to still be able to relax while enjoying his food in the inn, whereas he had just finished killing so many people in one night, however Lin Feng seemed to not feel anything, even his attitude showed as if nothing had happened.
As Lin Feng was engrossed in enjoying his food, a man suddenly came over to Lin Feng and directly sat down before Lin Feng, the man then ordered food and two bottles of wine for him, Lin Feng who thought that the man was just one of the visitors of the inn, paid him no heed and still ate his food voraciously.
"Did you hear about the Huang family massacre last night?" ask the man.
"Are you talking to me?" asked Lin Feng.
"Of course, who else is at this table" the man replied.
"Hahaha of course, I was really stupid for asking that question, of course you didn't hear it because you were tired after moving all night" the man said.
Lin Feng who was originally just indifferent and disregarding the man's words, suddenly just stopped eating him, his sharp eye gaze immediately pointed towards the man, saying, that seemed to want to kill the man before him right then and there, but a moment later, Lin Feng's face turned as calm as before.
"I'm sorry if I was presumptuous, actually I followed you last night, I also witnessed everything you did, but take it easy I won't divulge it to anyone, as fellow Assassins of course we have to keep each other's secrets" said the man.
"Assassin?" asked Lin Feng confusedly.
"What's the matter, aren't you a member of the Assassin Organization?, or maybe you're a member of the Association of assassins?" ask the man.
"No, I am not a member of the two" replied Lin Feng.
"That's impossible, if you're not a member of the two, why are you so good at killing?" ask the man.
"It's up if you don't believe it" replied Lin Feng.
"It turns out you're not lying yes, let's introduce I'm a member of the Assassin Organization, sorry that I didn't mention names, because the Organization forbade us to mention our names, so please, but the people of the Organization used to call me Shadow of the Night" said the man introducing himself.
"Feng, my name is Lin Feng, I don't have any titles, but as I recall people once called me the Night King" said Lin Feng.
After introducing each other, the two of them then continued chatting while enjoying each other's food, actually Lin Feng was very reluctant to chat because he preferred to be alone, instead, even more so with the mysterious man before her at this moment.
However, Lin Feng had no other choice and had to serve the man who claimed to be the Assassin, besides, Lin Feng also planned to dig out information regarding the Assassin Organization from the man, as well, after all, Lin Feng also already knew that the man before him at the moment, was not a man who could threaten his safety.
After telling a long story, the Assassin then said goodbye to Lin Feng, before leaving the inn, the Assassin had offered Lin Feng a chance to enter the Organization, but unfortunately, Lin Feng was unwilling to accept the offer, on the grounds of not wanting to be bound by anything.
The man certainly could understand Lin Fen's wish to freely wander, but the man was also not desperate, as he really wished for Lin Feng to join the Assassin Organization, either, not only that, the man also confessed to Lin Feng, that he was Li Haochun's spy and personal bodyguard.
