28 Chapter 24: The Hunt 2

That same Night in Chengdu City...

Long Man Inn...

The month is slowly coming to an end, And soon we would be saying Goodbye to the Snow.

The fragrance of Spirit wine filled the air, the view of The Silent city and the lamplight of citizens began to gradually went off as they began to head to bed after a tired day could be seen from the VIP room of the Long Man Inn.

Under the Calm sky, the white clouds slowly drifted off the Moon as its Moonlight gradually Lightened the streets of Chengdu.

In the Topmost floor of the Long man Inn laid the office of Its Owner. A Fair maiden with a Veil sat before the fire place within the room, She played a Soft tune on her Zither that lingered in the air. From within the Darkness a figure came forth and whispered to her.

[After All these years No one Had come Here with Such intent, but this year they have arrived in Turns. Serpents, Red Circle members, The secret Factions have been moving a lot recently. At least this ones seem to be here now to take care of those Damn Serpents, Spares me the trouble of chasing them out tomorrow.] The owner of the inn let out a deep breath upon hearing the news. The inn's business was poor in this Branch for the past few days because most big shots had Stayed clear off this Area, so only when those clueless caravans came could she earn enough profit.

Thinking for a bit, she Turned to No one in particular with a commanding tone [No Matter What sounds you hear Don't interfere, Let's Just watch.] after which she continued playing her zither, Only this time it was a serene tune that resonated throughout the Whole Inn.

Meanwhile, Within Another VIP Room The serpents were waiting for their Brother Long Chen while drinking and making Merry to the point that a miniature wine mist began to Form within the Massive room. From time to time the Laughter of Several women could be Heard and the ceaseless Chatter of the Serpent members. As time flowed, Teng Su (A/N :in case you forgot, he's the leader of the Serpent group that came to Chengdu) Developed a Suspicion because how long Long Chen was taking so his countenance changed. But his brethren were to engrossed with the pleasure they were having to notice except for Qui Xia (A/N: Eunuch)who suddenly paused for a second and began to hush every one.

Seeing this Teng Su couldn't help but give him a Questioning gaze.

In response Qui Xia only said one word[Listen!]

At his word everyone became alert, all they could hear was absolute silence except the serene sound of the Zither coming from above them.

after sometime one of them finally muttered

[its too Quiet...] but in response, the room's temperature suddenly Dropped. immediately they all circulated their Chi within their Body.

with a frown Teng Su announced[Prepare for Comba...] but was cut short by the scream of a prostitute.

This startled everyone so they unsheathed their weapons, But When they looked at her Direction they were shocked as the other women began screaming too with a few of them passing out. One of them had been been beheaded without them knowing, they felt a Shiver down their spine after all that was a full fledged Enlightened Virtuoso!!!.

[Everyone head outside to open Ground]

Under the Commands of Teng Su, They all Dashed Outside into the open, Lucky for them because Long man Inn was at the center of the city there were wider Roads That were connected in a huge round about Manner.

the Temperature continued to decrease, while the Speed of the Zither's tune gradually increased But struggled to keep their calm by the first thing they heard

[See?, I told you guys that would smoke them out. Good Job Wu' er] A Tiny melodic voice Sounded out but its words made them Frown.

Turning his gaze to the Direction the voice came from Teng Su was Surprised, It was a young Girl that looked to be at the of Twelve.

She had Long Black hair that flowed down her back that you'd think she had been growing them Since Birth and a Pale white Skin, She Donned a White gown which seemed to blend with the Snow on the Roof she was standing on. But her most Striking feature was the Glowing Blood Red eyes that stared down at them and the Pressure of a Grand master realm cultivator coming from her.

Teng Su Scowled because the feeling he got from her was that, despite his Mid level Grand master realm cultivation he would be Hard pressed to beat her. Now he looked at the the rest of her Group with worry, They all had White hair and wore black clothes but he Couldn't feel any Chi from them yet they held weapons. Before he could ask any Questions, what he heard next Made him frown Further.

[Kill everything that came out from that except this one] She said pointing at Qiu Xia.

[[[[[We Obey!!!]]]]]

Xu Wu dived down the roof directly where the prostitutes were hiding and began her Slaughter like a wolf let loose in a hen House while Xu Si fought against the only remaining Enlightened Virtuoso.

Xu yi went for Qiu Xia, as he leisurely deflected Qiu Xia's attempt to resist capture.

Xu er and Xu San double teamed the remaining three infallibles.

Xu Yun continued to Use pressure to lock onto Teng Su when he received a Notification that His Main body was now active.

{Energy Restored!...Dual control Enabled}

A Small Screen appeared on his top right view, he could see his room through it as he stared at his fair hands. so he made his main body start cultivation 'system can you minimize this screen? its kind of uncomfortable at the moment'.

As per his request the screen disappeared while tiny numbers kept popping up, showing that his Main body was still cultivating and Xu Wu was killing the prostitutes.

[do you think you can get away after all this??] Teng Su finally broke the silence as Cut through Xu Yun's thought.

[ If I would regret it or not would be in the far future but first leave your reptilian life here] Xu Yun said icily.

[Come!!!!] Teng Su Roared While he held onto his Broad sword as he stepped on the Wall and directly leaped onto the rooftop of a nearby building. Due to the Snow on the roof he slipped, but he as tried to regain his balance, He first threw few poison needles towards Xu Yun but was blocked by the Sword that just appeared out of no where onto Xu Yun hands. he then sent Sword Chi flying towards Teng Su before the latter paused and tilted his body sideways allowing the Sword Chi pass by him, only getting a slight cut on his cheek.

When he dodged the Sword Chi He immediately dashed at the young girl before him, But this time they both charged at each other with their Swords out on full display.

Xu Yun quickly activated his killing intent skill along with his Blood Aura, Immediately increasing his attack damage by 20%.

He knew that if they engaged in close combat, this Avatar would lose in strength. Judging by the fact he was using a Broad Sword he was 70% Teng Su was strength based. therefore, with such a short distance He used to the fullest as he turned into a streak of light passed Teng Su and appeared behind him as he slashed at Teng Su's back but he too immediately flashed forward creating a distance between them, after all it was 'almost' unavoidable.

Teng Su quickly took a step backward as, attempting to ope the distance. At the same time, he shot out a throwing knive with a flick of his wrist.

the girl's face was unfazed, taking a tumble and avoiding the Knives, continuing her pursuit. At the same time, a lump of Frost energy Gathered at her empty palm.

Teng Su looked at the Frost Chi in her hands that hasn't been fired or anything and felt tensed in his heart, quickly taking a few more steps back before he ran and Directly Jumped unto another roof.

Although he worked hard in close combat and also trained his Drifting sand technique. he was incapable of doing much as there wasn't any sand around here and Xu Yun's avatar who was a speed type was the worst match up he could get.

Teng Su whom was not suited for this style of combat, quickly fell into disadvantage.

[Eh? This is interesting.] Xu Yun who had been on guard as he felt like Teng Su was trying to lead him to a Trap, Quickly noticed something was amiss. The more Teng Su kept dodging and creating distance the more his weakness became glaring. Finally when Teng Su Tried jumping onto another roof, Xu Yun used his favorite skill from the Demon heart chain skill.

: Pulls an enemy within a 15m range towards the caster with a Knock down effect.

This caught Teng Su mid Air and Pulled him back to Xu Yun's avatar while Knocking him Down which Xu Yun followed up with a Dragon Cuff and the Blind Dragon when Teng Su tried to Block, inflicting him with a Blind Status for Three secs. Then he Used his Sword to Quickly amputate both his hands and legs before freezing the edges with the Ice Chi still left in his Meridians.

Teng Su Didn't utter a cry as he Glared at Xu Yun with gritted teeth.

making Xu Yun simply Smile at him, as he looked at his shadows and found out they were done and were watching him.

[We are returning, Yi Take this Two Back first... ] Xu Yun commanded, He was happy he was able to catch them unprepared. if not their lineup would have been bad in an ambush.

"well I'll just use Soul shackle on th..." His Thought was disrupted by a Voice that sounded within his head.

[Little Girl, May I know where you're taking them to?...]

| | : Hit the target's face to inflict damage repeatedly. If the target is still under the effect of Dragon's Footprint , it will also fall under the effect of The Cuff, which disrupts their sense of direction and coordination for 6 seconds. (The duration can be stacked with the stack count of Dragon's Footprint effect.).

Blind Dragon (feint): Turn a slap in the face into a poke in the eye, inflicting damage. When parry is broken, the target falls under the effect of Eye-Stab , and vision is blurred for 3 seconds.||
