The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 19 - Two Robed Figures
The Thunder Fox circled around the surroundings in an observant manner, sensing a strange air begin to appear. Using his sharp smell was not difficult anymore to smell the blood from a distance.
"Did you kiss her too?" the Lightning Fox asked Xin Chen, but the interlocutor could not smell anything. Other than that he was not so focused, Xin Chen himself was still under heavy pressure when killing someone.
Realizing that the Lightning Fox could understand him, Xin Chen's age was still fairly young. Later on he would get used to himself with blood and death, the Lightning Fox could see him, behind those still sparkling eyes it would one day turn like his father. Being the figure of the Demon Sword that everyone feared, killing for a sense of peace. Soon her little hands will be filled with blood.
"Follow me," said the Lightning Fox later. Xin Chen did not have time to realize the Lightning Fox had pulled out his hand and ran at lightning speed. This high speed made him unable to take a breath for a long period of time.
With the sharp smell of the Lightning Fox they finally reached a point where one large building stood, more like a house but larger in size.
"Lately it seems like your situation is unstable..." The Lightning Fox looked up in front of the mansion, like examining the various possibilities that were going on inside there.
"Ti-unstable how?" Xin Chen held onto his chest as it was hard to breathe air, his shoulders were going up and down.
Although the lighting on the street was rather minimal so Xin Chen had trouble seeing but he himself could guess what the Lightning Fox was feeling. There is sadness in the way he says things. "Maybe... All this time I've always wished to people like you and your father, you who want to maintain this peace to continue, if it's the people who are your enemies who eventually win this war... The demons will not be able to survive in this cruel world."
Xin Chen was speechless a thousand languages, somehow he had to tell the Thunder Fox that he himself also realized the situation of the Shang Empire was already different from what it used to be. Murder is rampant for unclear reasons. Perhaps this was what the Lightning Fox feared.
The Lightning Fox patted his shoulder slowly, "War was born from our desire to protect our loved ones.”
Before entering the mansion the Thunder Fox spoke again, "Until the flames of war begin to blow. You should have sharpened your sword first. I bet you
understand what I'm talking about."
When the front door was smashed by the Lightning Fox something shocking came to them, inside the house there were already two innocent daughters' lives. While one aged man in the middle of the living room was strangled upwards to not have a foothold.
Just before the man stood two black-robed figures, very similar to the person Xin Chen had met under the tree. They carried a half-shaped piece of steel from a bird carving. With a youthful bluish-colored spiritual power, something was sucked from the head of the poor man before them.
While the figure of the woman who was not so far away from him cried without being able to do anything, she was like holding a necklace and crying to him.
"Stop! What are you guys doing!?" Xin Chen's shout echoed all over, making shock waves around him and successfully making the two men lose focus.
"You do the rest, let me take care of the boy." Whisper the man in the robe to his girlfriend, while his friend was busy absorbing something from the deceased victim. It seems they first committed violence against a group of people in the house.
The Lightning Fox did not even have the time to tell Xin Chen that the enemy he was facing right now had a high level of strength, for a small child whose strength can be equated with a small swordsman it seems of course the situation will not be balanced. Xin Chen would be defeated easily by him.
With a lightning whip, the woman began to be fooled for a few seconds. Sounded crackling from her lips before finally a powerful force appeared, the woman created a wind shield around her and coupled with a chain of flames at the same time.
"Wind Shield and Fire Chain? Where did they learn this?" The Lightning Fox fended off one of the fire chains that invaded it. "These moves are often worn by Xin Fai in combat, most likely they mimic his fighting style... But for what?"
While he was busy thinking hard he didn't realize Xin Chen was bouncing away towards him, making the two of them collide violently.
Xin Chen spewed fresh blood, only then did he realize that he was still very amateur in terms of swordsmanship.
His opponent was displaying an extremely smooth sword technique, fast like an eagle and agile like a lion. Making himself who could only just swing his sword fall collapsed. Xin Chen tried to get up, flicking his sword even stronger.
"Teacher, I'll hold him. During that time please stop the old woman!"
"Old woman said you-!?' a loud clap rang out until finally one of the fire chains invaded Xin Chen. At the same time the man who was his opponent attacked.
Xin Chen chose quick action, he avoided the chain of fire first but unfortunately the man in front of him pulled Xin Chen's hand and threw it towards the woman.
As soon as his friend greeted, three chains of fire prepared to stab at Xin Chen who was being pushed. In that second Xin Chen realized his life was already at the tip of the horn, perhaps soon his entrails would be shattered by the fiery chains.
Somehow people say to him began to feel right, he could not protect himself at all and instead made others often sacrifice to protect him. Xin Chen was hated by many people.
If Xin Chen died, no one would mourn him, instead they waited for those moments. The moment where the burden disappeared and the Xin Zhan they were indeed fighting reached the title of the next generation Imperial Pillar.
Just as the chain link was about to pierce Xin Chen's eyeball a high-powered lightning leap came, destroying the entire house until the wall cracked. With the power of a demon, the lightning whip could destroy the chain of fire in one slash. Not more. Making their two opponents start to tremble.
"We must not be rash, this is the order of the superior. We better pull ourselves out first."
"But-but..."
"Listen to what I say!" The man in front of them raised a voice, his messy roar of breath caused by the murderous air of the Lightning Fox that was indeed aimed at the two of them.
The woman looked at Xin Chen with piercing eyeballs, like she wanted to tear him into pieces. "My relationship with you is not finished. When we meet, remember. I'll chop off your head and put it in my room."
