Chapter 342: The Way He Was Meant to Be

“You want to run? No one has escaped from me before!” The bandit leader turned around to shout at his men and those small fries immediately ran after He Dahua. The hidden guard pulled out his sword to stop those people. A few flashes of his blade left the ground covered with corpses.

When the bandit leader saw that the hidden guard was strong, he shouted, “Kill this man, then that beauty will be ours! We’ll share her!”

Those men’s eyes filled with lust as they looked at Ning Shu, then they rushed towards the hidden guard with reckless abandon. No matter how skilled the hidden guard was, he couldn’t deal with this many people. Ning Shu saw that the hidden guard was having a difficult time, so she lifted her skirt to run.

Hopefully, she’d be able to lessen the hidden guard’s burden.

“Catch her! Not only is that woman an outstanding beauty, she’s also the noble wife of a high ranking official! If you guys catch her, we’ll be able to strike it rich!” Wen Ruhua purposefully made this idea sound very alluring.

The bandit leader hastily brought a bunch of his men and went with Wen Ruhua to chase after Ning Shu.

The sky was gradually getting brighter, so all the roosters in the village were sounding the morning alarm. Ning Shu ran with her skirt lifted while a large wave of people followed behind her. Though she was running with all her might, she wasn’t going very fast. The people behind her were chasing after her with a cat catching mice attitude. They seemed to be waiting for her strength to run out so that she couldn’t resist when they catch her.

Ning Shu could barely move anymore, and all that was in front of her was a river. This was precisely the river that Mu Yanmeng had jumped into.

“Why aren’t you running anymore, Bai Qinxiang? Keep running, why don’t you?” Wen Ruhua was holding a sword which increased his dark gloomy aura.

Perhaps Wen Ruhua was more suited to holding a sword rather than a pen. After all, his dream was to become a great hero that killed corrupt officials.

Ning Shu turned around and spat towards Wen Ruhua. “Wen Ruhua, aren’t you just holding a grudge because you’re envious of how those high official are able to get what they want when you can’t get anything? You want to become like them, but you don’t have the ability to. That’s why your envy turned to jealousy and hatred.”

“Shut up, it’s not like that!” refuted Wen Ruhua. “I’m doing this to get justice for the people of the world, so that they can live even better. The common people can only truly live when all those corrupt officials are gone!”

“Pei! Wen Ruhua, you’ve joined the bandits. Do you know what bandits are? They loot, burn, and kill after snatching what they want. They’re the ones that go around tyrannizing the people,” said Ning Shu with disdain. “You’re just thirsting for power, but you don’t have the ability to get it, so you’re trying to use a mask of righteousness to conceal your ugly self. Don’t you feel shame? In a little while, you guys will be looting from this village and killing the villagers. How are you any different from those corrupt officials?

Ning Shu was getting super worried. Why was the hidden guard still not here? She glanced towards the river. Could it be that she really was going to have to jump down?

“I do thirst for power. If I had power, would you have chosen that son of the high ranking official?” Wen Ruhua said mildly, “Once I gain power, I’ll kill all the corrupt officials in the world.”

Ning Shu responded with three words: “Ha. Ha. Ha.”

“Boss, I’ll tell you a secret. This village actually contains a huge secret.” Wen Ruhua ignored Ning Shu and turned to the bandit leader.

The bandit leader asked, “Oh? What secret?”

Wen Ruhua moved towards the bandit leader’s ear as if he was going to whisper something, then he stabbed his sword right through the bandit leader’s chest.

“Ugh…” The bandit leader looked disbelievingly at Wen Ruhua as he fell to the ground.

“Boss! Boss…” The rest of the small fries started shouting in shock and looked at Wen Ruhua in alarm.

Ning Shu was also stunned and stared at the sword that was dripping with blood in Wen Ruhua’s hand. Wen Ruhua’s expression was very indifferent. The gloominess that had always hovered around him seemed to have been dispelled.

His aura became very different, as if this had always been the way he had meant to be.

Wen Ruhua lifted the bloody sword and his voice resounded as he shouted, “From now on, I’m the boss of this group! From now on, I will lead everyone! I’ll make it so everyone will live better, have more money, and beautiful women!

“Anyone that has objections will end up like him.” Wen Ruhua kicked the corpse of the bandit leader.
