#114 - Provoking the country? Welcome the official iron fist!
These guys who are single-mindedly trying to become Outcasts, to master innate Qi and all sorts of supernatural powers and spells, don't know that although Outcasts possess a wide variety of supernatural powers, spells, and divine abilities, in the eyes of the authorities, they are unstable factors, and there is even an iron-clad population red line that cannot be tested in any way.
Now, these people have not only failed to become Outcasts as they wished, but have even died prematurely at the hands of these armed personnel of unknown origin.
Looking at these tragically dead bodies with pity.
Liao Zhong seemed to think that Luo Fu was somewhat saddened by the death of those of his kind, and couldn't bear it, so he opened his mouth to persuade him: "Realist Luo Fu, before you awakened your innate supernatural powers and entered the world of Outcasts, you were just an ordinary college student. Although I don't know when you became aware of the existence of Outcasts, I think this should be the first time you have truly felt the cruelty of Outcasts, right?"

Luo Fu nodded slightly and said: "That's right. The Outcast circle is indeed cruel. Clearly, in modern society, even if they were to move bricks, Outcasts would live better than normal people by relying on their own supernatural powers and spells. Yet, there are still countless people who painstakingly pursue extraordinary power!"
"There's nothing strange about that. Hasn't it always been like this since ancient times?" Liao Zhong didn't know where he pulled out a pack of cigarettes from, took one out, lit it, and with the wisps of smoke, he continued: "Life and death are too common in the Outcast circle. So, Realist Luo Fu, don't take life and death too seriously, whether it's your own or others'."
Suddenly pausing, Liao Zhong seemed to realize something and smiled self-deprecatingly. He said: "With Realist's strength, you don't have to worry about your own life and death at all."
"Then you're wrong." Luo Fu shook his head and said: "Life and death in the Outcast world may be common, but not for ordinary people."
The moment the words fell, in Luo Fu's hand, a long sword filled with the style of the Island Nation appeared out of thin air. Starting from the hilt held in Luo Fu's hand, it extended bit by bit, and finally completely formed.
When he saw Luo Fu actually take out a sword by some strange means, Liao Zhong was stunned, dropped the cigarette butt that he had only smoked halfway, and said: "Is Realist Luo Fu planning to take action personally?"
"No." Luo Fu shook his head and said: "I just want to try out my new ability."
In the unbelievable gazes of Liao Zhong, Wang Zhenqiu, Lao Meng, and Hei Guan'er and others.
After inexplicably taking out a weapon like a samurai sword, Luo Fu actually frantically swung the sword towards the corpses on the ground, who had already lost their breath.
In an instant, even Xiao Zizai, who had not completely fallen from the Arhat realm, and Chen Duo, who was taciturn and had a flawed mind, widened their eyes.
Their experience was more than just bizarre.
After being resurrected, countless people subconsciously stroked the places on their bodies where they had been injured before, and some even tore open their clothes, which were still stained with blood.
"I remember that we were clearly dead just now. How did we suddenly come back to life in the blink of an eye? Didn't they say that the so-called Outcasts are just people who have mastered a little bit of the means to use innate Qi, and can't even achieve immortality?"
A man wearing a white shirt, which was now completely turned into a mottled bloody garment because of his death just now, looked towards Luo Fu's direction as if enlightened.
Although this guy didn't know much about the Outcast world at all, and his limited knowledge was just hearsay from Biyou Village.
But there was one thing he was very clear about.
That was that Luo Fu was definitely an extremely powerful existence among the Outcasts.
The reason for the birth of this perception was very simple: he saw the scene of Ma Xianhong personally coming out to greet Luo Fu and the others when they arrived just now.
In his eyes, Ma Xianhong was already like a great immortal, so could an existence that even Ma Xianhong had to treat with courtesy be an ordinary person?
However, Luo Fu at this time did not have the mind to pay attention to these ordinary thoughts.
After sharing the ability of Death God Luo Fu, and relying on the Zanpakuto, which was almost identical to Tensa Zangetsu after its initial release, to pull all the dead ordinary people back from death.
Luo Fu's gaze quickly fell on these armed personnel of unknown origin.
Like Luo Fu, Liao Zhong, who was also sizing up these armed personnel, suddenly seemed to have discovered something and said with gritted teeth: "The Wang Family."
"Are you saying, the Wang Family of Wang Ai, one of the Ten Elders?" Luo Fu said in surprise.
Although the Wang Family was indeed very arrogant, the Wang Family was still one of the Ten Elders of the Outcast world. At worst, even if Wang Ai's brain was filled with water, he should understand what it meant to privately possess such armed personnel.
Even if Wang Ai was crazy, the other people of the Wang Family should not have done such a brain-dead thing for the continuation of the family.
Liao Zhong took a deep breath and said: "These armed personnel may not be people from the Wang Family, but the people who raided Biyou Village this time must be related to the Wang Family!"
Slightly pausing, Liao Zhong came to one of the few Outcasts among the invaders.
"This guy is a collateral disciple of the Wang Family. I had a brief encounter with him, so I recognized him."
Now even Luo Fu was a little speechless.
Was the Wang Family doing this because they thought they were not dying fast enough?
Organizing armed personnel, illegally possessing firearms, being an Outcast family, but indiscriminately killing ordinary people.
Any one of these actions and charges would be enough for the company and the authorities to carry out a thunderous strike against the Wang Family.
"What a pity." After checking the condition of the other Outcasts, Liao Zhong said: "Most of these people's minds have been ravaged by extreme emotions. Although they are still alive, they are already useless. If their spirits cannot recover, I'm afraid we won't be able to get any useful information out of them."
"Since it's already certain that these people are related to the Wang Family, what information is needed?" Luo Fu said as a matter of course: "The Wang Family, as an Outcast family, indiscriminately killed ordinary people, possessed firearms, privately formed armed forces, and contacted foreign Outcasts. These charges are enough to completely destroy the Wang Family, right?"
Luo Fu didn't know what kind of reasons the Wang Family was based on to do such a brain-dead thing, and he didn't want to know either.
Just as Luo Fu had said, from the moment these people were linked to the Wang Family, the Wang Family's fate was already sealed.
This was not like before, when the Wang Family relied on their status as one of the four famous families of the Outcast world, a thousand-year-old family, with great power and wealth, to act recklessly.
Simply bullying ordinary people was something the company would turn a blind eye to.
But now, the Wang Family's actions were completely challenging the bottom line of the country and the company.
A family destined to be destroyed, even if Luo Fu understood the reasons, what would he gain besides satisfying his insignificant curiosity?
In fact, Luo Fu didn't know that the culprit for the current situation was him.
Ever since the news that Luo Fu possessed the secret to immortality was exposed, this news not only spread throughout the entire Outcast world in a short period of time, but even foreign Outcasts quickly learned of this news.
In order to obtain the secret to immortality, which was not known to exist, the Wang Family spared no expense. Not only did they directly expose a chess piece that had been lurking in Quanxing for many years, but also, in order to be foolproof, they also contacted foreign Outcast forces.
The reason for contacting foreign Outcast forces was essentially just to avoid exposing themselves.
But plans could not keep up with changes. The original cooperation with Quanxing was because of Luo Fu's overwhelming strength, which crushed all the high-level members of Quanxing.
For a time, many of the Wang Family's plans had to face a situation of change.
But in a hurry, how could the previous arrangements be able to achieve comprehensiveness and foolproofness?
The Wang Family's series of arrangements were inherently of the type that could not be seen in the light, and even if they were changed, they needed to be careful.
Don't forget that Zhao Fangxu, the chairman of the Natong Company, was stationed at the foot of Longhu Mountain.
Wang Ai had to consider this point and eliminate all hidden dangers that might expose the Wang Family.
It was just that no matter how much Wang Ai calculated, he would not have thought that Luo Fu would choose to directly abandon the Lotian Dajiao and the members of the company and go straight to Biyou Village.
The speed of the high-speed train allowed Luo Fu and others to travel from Longhu Mountain to Caiyun Zhainan, where Biyou Village was located, in just a few hours.
Although Luo Fu's actions did indeed catch Wang Ai off guard, those Outcasts from abroad, who were also interested in the secret of immortality on Luo Fu's body, keenly discerned Luo Fu's purpose.
Unfortunately, the address of Biyou Village was in Caiyun Zhainan, not far from the border line.
And these foreign Outcasts, in order to obtain the secret of immortality on Luo Fu's body, spared no effort and directly dispatched a group of armed personnel to smuggle over from the border line.
Almost one after another with Luo Fu and others, these armed personnel came to Biyou Village and joined forces with the Wang Family members who came to meet them, creating the chaos that was happening at this moment.
It must be admitted that the Wang Family had probably been arrogant for too long, even to the point of losing the most basic rational judgment.
Of course, this was also because Luo Fu's strength was too exaggerated. Because of the lack of information, the Wang Family members in charge of specific contact did not know what kind of strength Luo Fu had.
As a result, a large number of armed members who had smuggled over, plus the Wang Family Outcasts in charge of command, were all captured by Luo Fu's several clones.
Not to mention anything else, the fact that the Wang Family contacted foreign Outcasts could not be erased. In addition, these armed personnel smuggled across the border, carrying weapons.
Even if it was just some individual weapons, without any heavy weapons to speak of.
But such actions are still an unforgivable provocation for a great power.
As the mastermind behind all of this, the Wang family will only face the iron fists of the company and the authorities, with absolutely no chance of survival.
Even with Wang Ai, one of the Ten Elders, in the Wang family, they are still finished. Not to mention that Feng Zhenghao himself among the Ten Elders can't wait to dig a pit and bury the entire Wang family.
Just the act of provoking the country is enough to ensure that the Wang family won't even have the slightest chance.
"What exactly is going on here?"
Having arrived one step ahead, but limited by his own means, Ma Xianhong, besides indeed delaying some armed members to a certain extent, didn't achieve much. He couldn't even save many villagers of Biyou Village from these armed members.
When he realized that the villagers who had died before had been resurrected in the blink of an eye, albeit covered in blood, but unharmed, he felt that his brain was not working properly.
Can the life and death of a person be reversed so easily?
Even if the puppets like Ruhua that Ma Xianhong created with Divine Machine Refinement were damaged, they couldn't be repaired so easily.
And now, these villagers are all living human beings.
A group of killed humans resurrected inexplicably, which is simply challenging his worldview.
"As you said," Luo Fu spread his hands and said, "They just experienced a physical death."
"How is that possible? How can death be reversed so easily?" Ma Xianhong was greatly stimulated and muttered to himself.
Luo Fu, however, had some guesses. The Zanpakuto of Death Luo Fu, in fact, could not achieve the effect that Luo Fu is currently displaying even in the Death God world.
This Zanpakuto, which is somewhat similar to Tenseiga in function when released, is undoubtedly a bit of a waste in the Death God world.
Don't forget that in the Death God world, apart from the human world, whether it is the Soul Society or Hueco Mundo, they are essentially composed of spiritual particles.
Even the vast majority of the dead souls will turn into pure spiritual particles after another death, even some Death Gods are no exception, and will also turn into spiritual particles.
It can be said that the Zanpakuto of Death Luo Fu actually does not have many opportunities to play a role in the Soul Society.
He is just a seated officer in the Fourth Division. Even if there is a tough battle to fight, the task of healing rarely falls on Luo Fu's head.
After all, before showing the ability to truly reverse life and death, how can this ability similar to Tenseiga compare to Retsu Unohana's Zanpakuto in terms of pure healing?
You must know that Retsu Unohana's Zanpakuto, after being released, directly turns into a huge creature like a flounder, which can easily restore the injuries of the Death Gods, which makes Luo Fu's ability even less useful.
Even though his Zanpakuto, in the released state, can theoretically resurrect the dead.
But none of the Death Gods who can leave a corpse are not the best among the Death Gods.
Even if they really die, their companions will collect the body, and they will not let Luo Fu, a small seated officer in the Fourth Division, toss it around.
Even speaking of it, even this fellow Luo Fu realized the mysteries of the Zanpakuto's abilities earlier than the Death God himself.
What makes Luo Fu a little puzzled is.
Theoretically, the release of the Zanpakuto should be an ability possessed after understanding the name of the Zanpakuto.
But strangely, in the memory of Death God Luo Fu, the Outcast Luo Fu did not see any impression of the Zanpakuto's name at all.
He doesn't know the name of the Zanpakuto, but the Zanpakuto can be released.
Only those who truly understand the Death God system will realize how incredible this situation is.
And the reason why Luo Fu was able to save the lives of these ordinary people by relying on the Zanpakuto shared from Death God Luo Fu.
In fact, it is not as simple as imagined.
Because the Outcast world and the Death God world have different understandings of the concept of death.
Even ordinary people's understanding of death is very different from the physiological definition of death.
In fact, Luo Fu's Zanpakuto, rather than reversing life and death and resurrecting these ordinary people, it is better to say that he is restoring the vitality and life of these ordinary people's bodies in an alternative way.
The souls, wills, and minds of these ordinary people did indeed begin to dissipate with the death of their bodies.
But this requires a process.
Even some powerful Outcasts can continue to survive as亡魂after death, and there are also many means in the Outcast world that can help others to act as亡魂and live in the world for a long time.
For example, Feng Zhenghao's son, Feng Xingtong, after learning Spirit Binding, when the great master Wang Zizhong died, he forcibly留下了Wang Zizhong's 亡魂using the ability of Spirit Binding.
Feng Xingtong's approach of留下了Wang Zizhong's 亡魂and Luo Fu's approach of saving these ordinary people with Zanpakuto have the same goal by different means.
Life and命are complementary to each other.
If命dies, 性will also dissipate. If 性dissipates, then命is just futile, just a breathing corpse.
Luo Fu is not the Death God himself. The Zanpakuto of Death God Luo Fu can only act on himself and the亡魂composed of灵族.
But Luo Fu, his Zanpakuto, after being localized, is more like a special magic weapon that combines命and 性.
Yes.
It is a magic weapon.
Don't look at Ma Xianhong, who controls Divine Machine Refinement, and has refined many magical artifacts, but those are just artifacts. Magic weapons and artifacts are completely two different concepts.
"Facts have proved that whether you are willing to believe it or not, these villagers of Biyou Village have traveled between life and death."
Luo Fu's voice clearly came to Ma Xianhong's ears, who was in shock.
Coming back to his senses, Ma Xianhong bowed and saluted Luo Fu gratefully, saying, "Thank you, Realist Luo Fu. If it weren't for Realist's action, few of these villagers would have been able to survive."
As soon as he thought that he had built a new sect of Jie, pursuing education for everyone, in this vast and boundless mountain, someone was still specially coming to slaughter unarmed ordinary people with modern weapons in a way that wiped out the entire sect.
Ma Xianhong immediately hated these armed personnel so much that his teeth itched.
"Senior Luo Fu, may I ask why these people came here?" Ma Xianhong said with a sullen face.
Don't look at Ma Xianhong as if he is just a rarely speaking technical宅in Biyou Village, but as an Outcast, and even dare to call himself the leader of the new Jie Sect, Ma Xianhong is not lacking in bloodiness in his bones at all.
After confirming the safety of the people of Biyou Village, the first thought that came to Ma Xianhong's mind was to avenge his hatred.
"These armed personnel should have been smuggled from the national border of 彩云之南, and the person who guided them to smuggle, if nothing else, should be the Wang family of the Four Famous Families, the Wang family that produced one of the Ten Elders, Wang Ai."
"What if he is one of the Ten Elders?" Ma Xianhong's eyes flashed fiercely, and he said, "Even if he is one of the Ten Elders, he cannot be so presumptuous in Biyou Village."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Xianhong looked at Luo Fu seriously and said, "Realist Luo Fu, I want to take revenge. Can you hand all these people over to me?"
"That won't work," Liao Zhong's voice appeared in time, interrupting Ma Xianhong's words, and said, "You haven't even solved your own troubles yet. Don't think that breaking the population red line really has no hidden dangers, right?"
"I said, the purpose of my building the Self-Cultivation Furnace is to restore my memory. Being able to transform ordinary people into Outcasts is just an accidental side effect of the Self-Cultivation Furnace," Ma Xianhong explained patiently.
Liao Zhong smiled coldly and said, "There is no need to explain to me what the truth is. You can explain it to the company yourself when the company comes!"
After dealing with Ma Xianhong, Liao Zhong quickly pulled Chen Duo to Luo Fu's side.
Fortunately, Chen Duo has a kind of daughter-like attachment to Liao Zhong.
When Director Liao reached out and pulled her, Chen Duo subconsciously restrained her own Gu poison.
Otherwise, even touching her through her clothes, Liao Zhong would definitely die.
Do you really think that the Gu-Body Saint Child that the Medicine Immortal Society has been painstakingly pursuing for so many years has no lethality at all?
After bringing Chen Duo to Luo Fu's side, Liao Zhong's tone was full of flattery and said, "Realist Luo Fu, this child will be handed over to you from now on. I will try my best to help this child find a way to solve the Gu poison on her body, but... but please protect this child for a while!"
"Realist Luo Fu, please help," Lao Meng also quickly echoed, "Chen Duo was taken away by the people of the Medicine Immortal Society when she was very young and raised as a Gu-Body Saint Child. Do you know what a Gu-Body Saint Child is? That is to raise a group of children as Gu worms! In that kind of environment, Chen Duo was even deprived of the qualification to be a human being. When I just rescued her from the Medicine Immortal Society, this child didn't even have self-emotion. Director Liao's efforts for so many years have only allowed Chen Duo to regain some humanity. But, she is a person, not an emotionless tool, not a Gu-Body Saint Child. It's not her original intention to become like this. Even if her ability is very harmful, she also has the right to live."
Luo Fu is actually very curious about Chen Duo's state.
After all, according to the company's definition of Chen Duo, her body has almost completely become a carrier for producing Gu poison. Even the internal organs have almost become a breeding ground for breeding Gu worms.
In this state, Chen Duo is indeed still human on the outside. But apart from the human appearance, she has almost no place to be classified into the concept of human being.
Most of the body's tissues have been occupied by Gu worms, and because of the Medicine Immortal Society's insane methods, Chen Duo doesn't even think she is a human being.
In this case, what exactly Chen Duo is, even Luo Fu cannot give an accurate definition.
