Immortal Domination: White Emperor

At the Shores of a Lake, surrounded by the sounds of a raging waterfall as its very floor were covered in snow. the moon high in the sky and a light breeze flowed as it c.a.r.e.s.sed the cheek of 12 year old boy, as he stood there like a mountain with clenched fists, Clad in dark purple robes creating an ethereal picture with the surroundings as he was watched by the 5 men in the vicinity.

"But I wonder, Do serpents really never fail missions?" The Boy asks with so much calmness, coupled with the icy look on his face. 'Why do I have to be so scared??it's not like I've not Died before. Besides as the saying goes "A warrior is worthless unless he rises above others and stands strong in the midst of a storm." If I can't survive this then It's better i died anyways'.

"Brat!!how do you know that name "Serpents"?!!" The Group leader spat out venom as his hold body was leaking with killing intent!, disrupting Xu Yun's thoughts.

"Oh, I wonder? How about we make a trade? You tell me who placed a red marker on me and I'll tell you how I...!!" As he tried to stall for more time a dagger abruptly came close to slashing his neck but he side stepped giving a counter attack of own.

Pai!!! A clear crisp slap rang out in the air as the flows with Chi (lefty) fell to the ground never to stand up ever again. A few seconds later his body turned to ice before disintegrating.

-+2830exp

Without even looking at his victim he knew he was dead because of the system's prompt, He just continued to stare at the group with all the concentration he could muster as he rotated his frigid ice Chi to the fullest!.

"Ice Chi!!!, Brat you really hid it well! But what could you do with a cultivation of martial intuition??" He was right, Mentioning this made the other Serpents relax once more.

'Yes what could I do? But one thing is sure!! If I'm going down, I'm going down with all of you...System exchange Blood throat evil poison and apply on all throwing knives " coming up with a plan, Xu Yun ordered the system.

-300Qcp!!

-poison applied and ready for use.

At the same time the group leader gave a signal for them to attack together, filled with rage at how easily and disgracefully their brother had died. They usually don't have any problems with dying as it was a normal thing in their line of work, the problem was how they died. Even as assassins they still valued honor.

And so the battle began without the two peak of power leveled serpents, the other two attacked together. One with a dagger and the other with a claw, trying to do a pincer attack.

The claw the first to arrive, aiming for his c.h.e.s.t but unfortunately Xu Yun stepped back before taking 2 steps forward and sending a slap to the assailants c.h.e.s.t, pushing Chi into it causing his heart to freeze. Seeing his partner's death, the Martial intuition who seemed to be hiding his cultivation held his dagger in a reverse grip creating a feint like he was going to slash Xu Yun's neck but suddenly Twirled around before a series clashing sounds were head as both party were pushed backwards .

the first to recover was Xu Yun as he activated triple tap appearing as a flash of light, dashing towards his assailant but his opponent quickly wrapped his internal organs with Chi right before Xu Yun struck him twice with two palm strikes pushing back once more.

Xu Yun frowned, he couldn't tell why this person was holding back at this time. Recovering from Xu Yun's strike as cold sweat ran down his or her face before going into stance.

"You won't stand a chance if you keep holding back!!" Xu Yun probed, making the opponent stare at him with wide eyes. Xu Yun's words seemed to have aroused the suspicion of the two on the side, it seems this person was new to the group. Naturally Xu Yun saw all this, so he couldn't help but let out a smile.

At the same time His opponent charged at him, covering 5m in a single step as he brought his centre of gravity lower before fl.i.c.k.i.n.g his arm and sending a black smokey needle flying towards Xu Yun. Xu Yun tried dodging but found his body sluggish, during that time he was feeling good about his new finding, he had let his guard down for a split second. This allowed the second in command to shadow step behind him and attack from his blind spot with a punch as Chi was wrapped around his fist, it sent Xu Yun flying by over 10m.

Puu! Xu Yun coughed up blood, His internal organs were a mess. If he didn't wear the silver vest from the Systems reward, he would have already left this world.

It was just at this time he noticed the trajectory of the needle earlier wasn't him but the one behind.

"Aaargh!!!you!!! Puu!! You poisoned me!!!" The man let out a piercing Cry as he stared at his companion, slowly dropping to his knees as he cried blood!.

"You should never had touched my sister!" An Icy cold voice was heard as the one who threw the needle took off the mask to reveal a stunning beauty. Raven black hair with almond coloured eyes and a face that looked between 16-17.

She was a member of the Tang sect, when she was out on an assignment for the sect 3 years ago. her sister was sent to spy on one of the Emei sect sacred grounds. Her team was then suddenly ambushed on their way back to the sect.

After a series of investigations, she found out it was the serpents who had eliminated her along with their intended target in order not to leave any witnesses.

Upon getting this information, She went through different trials just to get into the amethyst serpent branch and has been waiting for an opportunity to strike but it seems they held lots of suspicion towards her.

"Hundred victory poison!! Who are you?? And how did you get your hands on this poison" The leader's frosty voice sounded out as he released his full peak of power aura. "Don't even think of leaving here alive, without giving me an explanation!!" He continued.

At the time he saw his partner was beyond saving because of the potency of the poison.

"Leave?? Explanation?? Surely you jest!! I Ding wu had never let such thought cross my mind!!" Ding wu laughed icily as she finally released her full Aura out as well.

-Name: Ding wu

Title:Tang sect outer disciple, Spy ,poison Master

Cultivation: Expert of self.

"Hahaha, you dare say such words when you're a realm lower than me and there are no sneak attacks for you to exploit" The man mocked.

"I don't need to" Ding wu simply said before charging at his direction...

BOOM!! Kii!! Kaing!! Kaing!!...

Sparks filled everywhere as both parties exchanged series of blows with both their dagger and short sword.

Jumping off the floor and using the momentum to hit the man with a knee which was also blocked by him but not without pushing him off balance a bit as she flicked her hands releasing another needle while still in the air.

This time Xu Yun recognized the skill, "flick a tongue": it stuns you for 2 seconds, its from the tang sect tier 2 skill " golden snake sting".

As the man was off balanced, he couldn't block the needle on time so he was hit.

Despite not being poisoned, he was stunned, allowing her to activate "following madness" which grants you a 45% attack buff for 8 secs.

Seeing this, Xu Yun could already imagine what comes next.

"Swallow the whale" (rage skill)

Ding wu's dagger glowed a faint green light before she released the full 15 hit combo towards the man with so much speed Which he used all his focus to block the attack, sadly he got a few stabs on his side, c.h.e.s.t and upper left arm.

'Chance!' Xu Yun thought as he sent one of his throwing knives, grazing the Man's cheek because it was thrown while he was injured and was lying down. Still he was happy, as he had succeeded in poisoning him smoothly.

As if on cue, the man suddenly stopped as he couldn't breathe properly anymore but Ding wu simply increased her assault forcing him to move more vigorously so that his blood would circulate the poison faster.

At this time, Xu Yun crawled his way to the lake when he felt he was about to lose consciousness, he'd rather put his fate in the hands of the lake than this Ding wu!!, After all he still has a bounty on his head.

'Ah pathetic' he thought as he fell into the water, that strike had temporally blocked his Chi passages and he was out of points to even exchange for drugs. 'In the end The battle over flesh and blood cannot compare to the battle for the heart.'
