Chapter 4 - Heartless

It has been six years since Liang Chen left the army and during this time, through hard work, he had made a name for himself in the world of martial arts. His martial arts practice had reached rank 2. He has also gained a lot of wealth and even now when he appears in Spirit Turtle Village he is on a mission.

During his years working as a hunter, he accepts tasks from the hunter association and completes them for the bounty and it is through this method that he made a living.

His latest bounty was to hunt down and either kill or capture a criminal known as heartless. this man is wanted for all sorts of crimes such as thievery, rape, murder, and so on and this is what earned him the name of heartless. his latest act this time around was an assault on a little girl and this earned the ire of the people which is why the city governor placed a bounty on his head for the last three days, Liang Chen who accepted the mission has been in pursuit, unfortunately, not knowing the situation ahead he charged in and wanted to arrest the criminal but the only problem is the criminal is the man Jiang nan has decided to take in as his disciple.

Immediately this raised a clamour among all the people present

"Who's this kid"

"he is dead for sure"

"How dare he cut short the words of an immortal"

These were some of the statements Liang Chen kept hearing and immediately a thought ran through his brain ' Could it be I have interrupted some important event', Upon hearing the word immortal he finally understood. Just as he came to a stop from his high speed running his eyes landed on the man floating on the sword.

Liang Chen knew he had surely offended this immortal and had to apologize so he bowed in deference to the immortal

"Lord immortal this one here is Liang Chen, I am sorry for interrupting you, I did not see you earlier please forgive me". After Liang Chen finished speaking he was about to raise his head when he heard a voice

"Is that how you should greet an immortal"

When Liang Chen turned around he realized it was heartless who had spoken but before he even had the chance to process it, he heard his voice again

"You should kneel and kowtow "

Liang Chen was incensed and asked

"You, thief, who do you think you are talking to, do you believe I will take your life where you stand"

"HUMPHREY"

At this moment he heard a sound and immediately felt a sweat taste in his mouth. he understood that this immortal was angry. he looked at Heartless and saw the hatred in his eyes. he turned his eyes to look at the immortal again and understood it was the will of the immortal that he kneeled and kowtow.

but what could he do other than endure, what could an ordinary man like him do?
