Mad Scientist - Chapter 71
Du Bigwen was sitting on his couch while tapping the edge of it.
While the room was dead silent. Du Bigwen was holding a crystal in his hands. His face almost looked like he was chewing on a few feces. He was gritting his teeth very hard.
Wu Ji was standing next to a guard. While the guard was kneeling on the ground he was shivering in fear.
” Young master Du it’s really not our fault. ” The guard tried to explain.
“It’s already been an hour and 100 of you can’t kill a young man. ” Du Bigwen spoke through his gritted teeth. His cheeks were twitching while his eyes looked bloodshot.
” Young master please let me explain.” The guard tried to speak up but before he could speak more but he suddenly felt his whole room spin he saw his own body on the ground.
The body fell on the floor lifelessly.
” Gu Ji, bring the kid here alive. I want to see what he is made of. ” Du Bigwen spoke in an angry tone. He was feeling very irritated that he had to report back so the gold coin would belong to him.
” Yes,” Wu Ji moved out of the room. ‘It’s Wu Ji ‘ he thought in his mind. But he didn’t dare retort.
” Ahh, I will make you suffer. ” Du Bigwen shouted towards the roof. His face was red with anger. He had been waiting for confirmation but even after an hour, he didn’t hear anything.
******************
” Ahh don’t kill me ” a young man was running here through the streets of the slum area of the village while shouting, wherever he went people started waking up from their homes and looked outside.
The voice was filled with terror and despair in the silent night it felt even more terrifying.
There were almost around 80 people running behind the young man.
” Damm I can’t run anymore. ” two of the men suddenly stopped running. They were breathing heavily and looked very exhausted.
Their whole bodies were sweaty and sweat was like a river flowing endlessly. They both sat down on the ground completely drained of energy.
” How is he running for so long. ” said a bald man. He wiped the sweat on his forehead.
” I don’t know but I feel I have seen this place before. ” said the one-eyed man. He looked like a gangster with a cruel face.
” Of course, you idiot, it’s already the 7th time we are passing this place. ” replied the bald man with an angry voice. He was feeling very exhausted even with just speaking.
The young man was of course Bai Jie. As soon as Bai Jie entered the village he was discovered by the Red Cross Gang he had already removed his cloak. He straightforwardly ran away, at first there were only 10 or 15 people behind him.
But not so long after more than 80 people were running after him.
” Dammit, why is everyone so excitedly wanting to kill me,” mumbled Bai Jie with a tearful expression. He was running around the slums shouting, Bai Jie wanted to create a show of people of the Red Cross Gang capturing him. But he soon realized that it was his wishful thinking that they wanted to capture him; these people straightaway wanted to kill him.
‘ You bastards why don’t you take me to your boss. ‘ thought Bai Jie. He had planned he would be captured by these people in front of many villagers then he would find out who wanted to kill him and get rid of the Red Cross Gang, he didn’t want to kill everyone he wanted to eliminate the upper tier members of the gang so he could put this on the imaginary elder of the sect alliance. While he would leave a headless body with his clothes on it who looked a little bit similar to himself.
He had even thought of drama lines for his own capture to make it more realistic.
Bai Jie was running at the same speed as that of the mortals. Many people were watching him so he couldn’t just disappear. Being a mortal is a great advantage to him; he wouldn’t reveal that he was a cultivator. So Bai Jie started a fight of endurance which he knew he would definitely win. But soon he also realized that these people are too stubborn.
” Stop, fight like a Man. ” Bai Jie heard a shot from behind. He wanted to curse. He looked back and there were still more than 50 people behind him.
‘ I will run you to death. ‘ thought Bai Jie. These people are taking advantage of his passionate heart. These people tried many times to ambush him but with Bai Jie’s spirit sense it was all for naught.
As time passed Bai Jie saw more and more people losing their will to run after him.
He saw some people getting slow. There was quite a distance building up between them.
‘ You bastards, I won’t let you rest this easily. ‘ thought Bai Jie. He acted as he tripped himself. And fell on the ground.
” Ahhhh” Bai Jie cried loudly.
” Look he fell hahaha now you can’t run away anymore. ” some people suddenly got even more excited. They started running again, their eyes were looking at Bai Jie almost like a crazed beast.
” No ” Bai jie acted more scared like fumbling on the ground and got up and started running again.
‘ Damn you I will run you to death. ‘ thought Bai Jie, as a cultivator, he wasn’t tired at all.
” Brothers, the kid won’t last for long so we just need to persevere a little longer. The life of riches is waiting for us. ” One of the men shouted.
” Haaaaaa” everyone roared and started running again. The fire determination could be seen in their eyes again.
Bai Jie saw that almost the whole slum area was awake now. He tried to act more exhausted and ragged like he barely had any energy left.
Bai Jie suddenly saw that there were villagers gathering in the center street in front of him and he slowed down a bit.
He saw some villagers had hard sticks and harpoons. Some even had knives and short swords.
Bai Jie saw a whole wave of people coming his way. There was at least a gathering of 300 people everyone was a mortal.
” Young man dont worry, we are with you. These people are the scum of the village. Today we are going to teach them a lesson that even we are weak but we are strong if we unite. “An old man with a stick shouted. He looked the eldest among them. He had a badge on his chest.
‘ low tier Soldier ‘
‘ Are they here to help me ‘ thought Bai Jie. He didn’t even imagine in his dreams that these villagers would gather around to save him. He felt most of the mortals were cowards so he wasn’t expecting any help from them.
Bai Jie felt his heart warm-up . This was the first time he realized that there are courageous people too in mortals.
Even though Bai Jie didn’t say it he always considered people of this world differently. He never considered them the same as him. so he didn’t even any have qualms even he had to torture or kill thousands to complete to achieve his goal.
” Brother come you don’t need to fear anymore as long as elder Jun is here these people won’t dare to attack us. We will escort you out of the village. You have offended some very dangerous people especially Heavenly pavilion even elder Jun is powerless against them. ” a man came from the crowd and put his hand on Bai Jie’s shoulder.
” Why ” Bai Jie mumbled. He couldn’t make sense of why these people are here.
” hehe because you are one of us mortals. ” Bai Jie felt a pang in his heart. He was too focused on the cultivators. He realized the mortals also had their own ways to handle things.
Bai Jie scanned using his spirit sense they were like him who couldn’t cultivate independently. He had his parasites to break this curse but these people had nothing. But they still came to rescue him.
” Thank you. ” Bai Jie replied. Even though he could eliminate every one of the Red Cross Gang it will also procure more attention towards him.
” Old foggy, don’t involve yourself you think we are scared ” A man shouted from the group he noticed that they were all surrounded. He knew even though they were a little stronger in comparison to a large number of people they won’t be able to escape too.
” I Jia Jun had lived my life protecting people not scum like you who kill their own kind. If you have so much energy why not use it against the beasts ” the elder spoke in a domineering tone. The voice reverberated through the whole square.
Bai Jie looked closely towards the Elder and he felt a sense of admiration towards this man.
” Jia Jun don’t involve yourself with the kid, just hand him over and our boss wants him killed.if you dare come in my way there will be consequences. ” another man voiced.
” So you will kill me and go against the decree of the Mortal Sage,” said Jia Jun his voice was very calm but the word Mortal Sage sent shivers down the members of Red Cross Gang.
Bai Jie noticed that the villagers were very calm while the Red Cross Gang members all of them looked very fearful suddenly. It was like the name itself had the strength to deteriorate them.
‘ Who the hell is Mortal Sage. ‘ Bai Jie was very intrigued by this; he remembered he heard the evil spirit mention this name too.
” We just need the kid ” A man replied in a fearful tone. He didn’t dare to look in Jia Jun’s eyes anymore.
” You think you can kill mortals anytime I am standing here. I want to see if you can dare kill me. ” Jia Jun again spoke with a domineering tone. He clasped one of his hands behind his back. Jia Jun had a wrinkled face while there were teeth marks near his neck.
Today the Red Cross Gang has crossed the limit they were killing mortals like cutting weeds.
Jia Jun looked very angry. All the villagers looked very angry.
