Chapter 81: Chapter 80 Changing the Fate of Huo Chen

Changing the Fate of Huo Chen

Since it would take too long if Xue Bai walked, Xue Feng went over and picked him up while Li Rou picked up Xiao'er. And after messaging Li Huo to meet them outside of Snowy Wind City, the group flew off.

In the air, seeing the land under them go by extremely fast, Xue Bai was feeling at peace.

"Father, when you could first fly, how did that feel?" Xue Bai asked on top of his father's shoulder.

Thinking for a moment, Xue Feng eventually answered, "It wasn't as good a feeling as you're thinking, as I never planned to fly much in battle. I was only a commander in the Imperial Army then, and the air-to-air fights were between the generals above us. So I never fought in the air until the Law Manifestation Realm."

A few meters to the left, Li Rou also imputed, "It was a great feeling for me as I was an archer in the backlines. Now instead of having to rely on tall trees and other foliage, I could shoot from above in every scenario."

Nodding simply at their answers, Xue Bai stayed quiet and enjoyed the serene peace that came from flying. And eventually, Snowy Wind City came into sight, and the group flew down to meet up with Li Huo.

Landing peacefully just outside the city, the group found Li Huo in a set of armor awaiting them.

"Brother Feng, why did you call me out here? And to be armed at that." Li Huo asked, getting straight to the point.

"Commander Huo is going to be sneak attacked in a little. Just follow Rou'er and me, and we'll talk on the way." Xue Feng spoke quickly as they set off in the direction that Huo Chen went off in.

Nodding at his words, Li Huo followed the group as he was given a quick breakdown of the plan.

"I see what you two are planning, but why did you bring Nephew Bai and his maid with you?" Li Huo asked with some confusion in his tone.

Though he wasn't against having them come, it was still odd. After all, there was going to be a fight involving some of the continent's peak powerhouses. However, bringing the two kids made it seem like a family outing and not an assassination.

"You'll be protecting Bai'er and Xiao'er. Husband and I will be fighting the assassins." Li Rou answered plainly.

"Wait! Why am I the one who is sitting back? I am stronger than you, Little Sister Rou. Besides, can't they stay at home and watch through a projection array?" Li Huo had several questions.

But sadly, Li Rou ignored them all and looked forward as if she hadn't heard them at all.

Seeing his wife ignore her brother so coldly, Xue Feng could only scratch his head wryly.

"Brother Feng, there is no way she is still angry about me showing Nephew Bai the Stone Gambling Pavilion, right? That was almost four years ago. And Nephew Bai also got that tree from it too. So if anything, I deserve to be praised for my choice, not ignored." Li Huo was speechless at Li Rou's attitude.

However, Xue Feng, the awkward third party, could only shrug his shoulders. He knew how petty Li Rou was from firsthand experience.

And then, in silence, the three flew in the direction of Huo Chen until they finally heard the sounds of combat.

"I asked who you three are!" Huo Chen's yells could be heard as the three sped up.

However, his cries received no answers. But instead, Xue Feng, Li Rou, and Li Huo could tell from the sounds that the fight was becoming more and more intense as time passed.

Thankfully before Huo Chen fell under the blades of the assassins, Xue Feng arrived.

"Lord Duke! Lord Duchess! Why are you here?" Huo Chen exclaimed in shock as he noticed the group's appearance.

Currently, Huo Chen's appearance could be described as miserable. His commander's armor had more chips than whole parts. His left leg was almost severed, and blood dripped down his head from a massive slash that went across his forehead. However, seeing his Lord and his wife appear, he regained his composure, knowing that the assassins would finally die.

The assailants who almost killed Huo Chen were four assassins dressed in deep black cloaks that almost managed to reflect the light, paired with a hood that covered their entire heads, showing no features to the outside world. Xue Feng and his group couldn't even tell what gender was under the cloak, let alone any other detail.

The assassins were just as surprised as Huo Chen at the sudden appearance of Xue Feng and his group, but as they were highly trained, the four each gave each other a signal. And each took out a blood-red pill from their spatial rings and consumed them before charging off in separate directions, not even bothering to attack Xue Feng or the weak Xue Bai and Xiao'er.

The four assassins were all at the 7th stage of the Law Manifestation Realm, which was more than enough to quickly kill Huo Chen, who was only at the 6th stage of the Law Manifestation Realm. But after the appearance of Xue Feng, Li Rou, and Li Huo, they knew that doing any future damage to Huo Chen was impossible.

So the group chose the last remaining option and ran off to escape.

"Fools! Now that we're here, how can you escape?" Li Rou laughed as the three released their Domains.

Xue Feng comprehended the Element of his Martial Veins and unleashed his Ice Domain, while Li Rou, his opposite, comprehended his opposite Element and unleashed her Fire Domain.

Li Huo was the odd one out as his Martial Vein didn't have an elemental affinity, but true to his weapon of choice, Li Huo comprehended the Sword Law and unleashed a deadly Sword Domain.

At the beginning of the Domain Lord Realm, the range of your Domain would be very short, varying between 1-10 meters. However, the sizes grew exponentially at the 9th stage of the Domain Lord Realm. For example, Li Rou and Xue Feng have Domains that, at full power, could expand out to almost a kilometer from them. Li Huo's was a little worse, only at around 950 meters, but it was still more than enough to trap the assassins inside.

"Now that you've turned into turtles trapped in a jar, will you give up who hired you, or will we need to force it out of you 4." Xue Feng spoke menacingly as he walked closer to them.

"Attack! Go for Xue Bai!" The assassin, who seemed to be the leader, shouted.

However, they were never destined to reach their goal, as almost instantly, Li Huo waved his hands and formed a sword array that protected the kids within.

This was the power of a Domain Lord. Inside their own Domain, they were the Lord. Whatever they wished to happen happened. As long as the comprehension of their Law was deep enough, they could even bend reality to their wishes.

Xue Bai and Xiao'er inside the sword array were watching with rapt attention. And the eyes of Xaio'er almost seemed to be glittering at the act of power.

"It's useless." Li Rou shook her head as she saw the group try and struggle. Then, waving her hand, she summoned a fireball and launched it in their direction, scorching them and the clothes covering them, revealing their appearances.

"Without a Domain to protect yourself, you can't even fight back. Let alone try and take advantage of the situation." Xue Feng spoke as he walked over to the group.

Grabbing a man who didn't speak up earlier, Xue Feng didn't recognize him even after a good lock. Killing him directly, Xue Feng grabbed the spatial ring and inspected its contents. And true to his guess, he found what he was looking for.

Inside of the spatial ring, beside a few pills related to combat, there was only a token with a red skull branded on it.

Throwing it over to Li Rou, Xue Feng spoke, "Blood Skull Hall. Even if we tortured them for half a century, they wouldn't give up who hired them."

"Tsk! Then just kill them all. What's the point of keeping a hostage that nobody wants." Li Rou spoke angrily.

Nodding at her words, Xue Feng summoned three icicles for the remaining assassins, but Xue Bai spoke up just as Xue Feng was about to skewer the men.

"Father, wait! Don't kill them. They aren't from the Blood Skull Hall!" Xue Bai yelled out.

Though Li Huo and Huo Chen were confused at Xue Bai's sudden interruption, Li Rou and Xue Feng knew that Xue Bai was right and stopped.

"Brother Huo, bring Bai'er over here." Xue Feng asked.

Nodding, Li Huo put away the sword array and brought Xue Bai over to Xue Feng without letting the assassins get a potential move.

Going over to Xue Feng's side, Xue Bai spoke, "They are from the Xia Clan. They are pretending to be a part of the Blood Skull Hall to shift the blame just in case they get found out. As no one ever bothers to torture a Blood Skull Hall member."

After hearing their identities get exposed, the three remaining assassins tried to charge at the close Xue Bai. But Xue Feng expected it and merely froze them from the chin down.

"You three are good! You almost tricked me! Good, now I get to see your Xia Clan patriarch again. I never did like the look on his face." Xue Feng spoke with a fake smile.

"Brother Huo, can you bring these men to the prison? If you do, I'll let you extort a Marquis!" Xue Feng asked.

Though the request was somewhat annoying, the reward was more than worth it. So Li Huo happily grabbed the three surviving assassins and flew off.

"Commander Huo, speak of this to no one. No, never mind, come here and swear a Dao Oath here." Xue Feng ordered as he looked over to Huo Chen.

Even though they never directly mentioned why they were here, Xue Bai spoke some very ambiguous words, and Xue Feng would never let that leak out. But since the man with them was Huo Chen, Xue Feng couldn't kill him. After all, they spent all this time saving his life. So how could they kill him after all of the work they just did?

Huo Chen knew he had witnessed something he shouldn't have respected the order and swore a Dao Oath in front of Xue Feng and Li Rou.

"Alright, you can continue on your way home. Just remember to watch out for assassins next time." Li Rou spoke casually as she waved him off before flying back home with her family and Xiao'er in tow.

"What the hell just happened?" Huo Chen muttered. But as he was alone in the forest once again, no one could answer his question.
