Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

Chapter 134: 106, Wan Xiaolou of Yun Ye County_2

"Wan Xiaolou, you deaf mute, spouting nonsense again, get out of here, all of you, get out!"

A group of Divine Sound Sect disciples walked over, with a young disciple at the lead who, upon seeing the raggedly dressed youth, immediately showed disdain, appearing to recognize him.

When they heard the term "deaf mute," everyone was momentarily stunned, but then quickly realized that the youth had been staring at their lips while speaking and immediately understood.

The youth was truly deaf, watching their lips was his way of reading their lips.

And the youth, who was Wan Xiaolou, upon hearing the words "deaf mute," a subtle flash of cold light briefly appeared in the depths of his eyes, but he quickly put on a forced smile and clasped his hands in a bow, saying, "Brother Huang, I'm leaving... I'm leaving right now."

The Brother Huang, seeing his reaction, looked at him with even more contempt and no longer paid him any attention, simply raising the portrait in his hand to the crowd and shouting commands, "Everyone look carefully, the Divine Sound Sect is capturing this criminal. Report immediately if you spot him and consider yourself equally guilty if you dare to hide anything. The Divine Sound Sect will show no mercy!"

Divine Sound Sect was the only notable force in Yun Ye County and had a good reputation in Wanyang County. Although Brother Huang carried himself with arrogance, the others dared not to contradict him, nodding and agreeing submissively.

Seeing this, Brother Huang couldn't explode in anger, so he just left with a cold laugh. When the people turned back around, the deaf youth had already vanished into the crowd.

...

Wan Xiaolou was obviously familiar with Yun Ye County. He left the crowd and wandered through the streets and alleys for quite a while before finally arriving at a decrepit temple in the west part of the city.

"Big brother Xiaolou, you're back!"

"Big brother Xiaolou is back."

"Why are you so late today? I thought something happened to you."

...

As soon as he returned, more than a dozen children, aged between eight and fifteen, both boys and girls, all in tattered clothing, rushed out from the yard and surrounded him.

Looking at the children, Wan Xiaolou's face showed a trace of warmth. While reassuring them with a gesture, he looked towards the temple and asked in a low voice, "Has the senior left yet?"

The eldest of the girls shook her head and said, "No, big brother Xiaolou, that senior gave us some silver today to buy food and taught us a body tempering cultivation technique. Since you weren't here, we'll teach it to you later!"

"Yeah, yeah, that senior is so powerful, he could pierce the wall with just a straw. He's the most incredible person I've ever seen, even those bad guys from the Divine Sound Sect are not as strong as him."

"Mhm, mhm, I saw it too."

...

While these people were speaking, like Wan Xiaolou, they were all staring at the lips of others... evidently, these dozen or so children were all hearing-impaired.

Seeing what the children said, excitement and agitation immediately showed on Wan Xiaolou's face and his breathing became slightly heavier as he nodded to the children to wait and cautiously made his way to the temple.

In the temple, a handsome young man in his early twenties, dressed in Qing attire, was seated in meditation on the ground, with a long sword on one side and a black iron staff on the other. Even in a seated posture, his whole being exuded a dignified aura.

"Senior, the Divine Sound Sect's search efforts are still strong, they haven't relaxed their pursuit!"

Wan Xiaolou knelt down in front of the youth. Although this wasn't his first time seeing him, the respect he felt made him involuntarily lower his posture even more, especially knowing that this Qing-clad person might be the key to turning his fate around.

The Qing-clad person arrived at the temple on the twenty-fifth of last month, bearing injuries. With his years of experience in Yun Ye County, Wan Xiaolou could tell at a glance the young man wasn't a local, and considering the valuable longsword and the heavy iron staff that none of them could lift, Wan Xiaolou immediately realized that this man was extraordinary...

True to his judgment, although he was wounded, when two Divine Sound Sect disciples came to search the temple, they were swiftly killed by this man with a single strike.

Those two Divine Sound Sect disciples were familiar to Wan Xiaolou, as they were core disciples of the sect, both Martial Artists at the Ten Layers of Body Openings, seen as untouchable figures to people like Wan Xiaolou.

With just a flick of his sword, the two men were decapitated...

At that moment, the worldview of Wan Xiaolou and the children who had long lived in Yun Ye County completely shattered.

At the same time, Wan Xiaolou realized that his chance to defy the heavens and change his fate had come!

The Divine Sound Sect's ultimate technique, Jin Yu Shout, was a sound wave Martial Art that, like practising other martial arts that needed a living stake, required a living stake to find the most suitable sound range for cultivation, thus making these stakes indispensable.

All of these people had entered the Divine Sound Sect at the age of six, some bought and some abducted, and they were used by core disciples to practice Jin Yu Shout for a long time, leaving their eardrums useless. Luckily, Wan Xiaolou was clever, the first to master the skill of lip-reading and then taught the others, barely managing to survive in Yun Ye County.

But Wan Xiaolou's ambition wasn't just to survive. He had suffered nearly a decade of torment in the Divine Sound Sect and faced humiliation by the Sect Members after he left. This debt, all of it, had to be repaid.
