1 The Attack

In an early spring morning deep inside a valley between two mountains full with lush green trees and vivid with various animals and plants lies an Ancient Chinese style castle. The sound of fighting can be heard as men in red blood clothing rush into the outer area of the castle killing anyone they see.

''Zi Yao hurry and take the ancestral key, you know what to do". A handsome middle-aged man with short black hair and with a stern face Shouted at a young girl who is a tall and beautiful sixteen years old girl with light skin and long black hair that looks like silk furthermore with dark blue eyes that look like the ocean.

With a flawless and curvy body which made her have a mature and elegant charm about her that draws anyone towards her. He stood with his back facing his daughter as he looks at the scene of his clansmen desperately going to defend the front gate. "Yes, father," said Zi Yao.

"Mo Lin, Fu Cheng go escort the Zi Yao safely to the forbidden grounds. I will stay here and hold the member of the Blood sect back ". " Yes, Clan Head " two men in black answer from the shadows of the Clan Head.

"Zi Yao you must make it to the lowest level of the depths of hell that the only way for us to survive the calamity we are facing," said Clan Head Zi Yan as he turns to look at Zi Yao with the two black figures disappearing into the distance. Clan Head Zi Yan then closing his eyes then slowly open it with a face full of kill intent.

His body had a blood-red glow which appeared to be coming from his skin. This man is Ho Ming who is an elder of the Blood Sect one of the Ten Great Sects of the Sliver Kingdom. Elder Ho Ming floated in the air like a god of war.

He looks down to Clan head Zi Yan silently waiting. "Ho Ming for what reason has your Blood Sect come here to destroy my clan," said Clan head Zi Yan " Ha Ha Ha, your clan has been hiding a immortal treasure from rest the world, how can the Blood Sect, not get a share," replied Elder Ho Ming with a sinister voice .''

For what the so-called immortal treasure you came for, snorted one of the Zi clan elders. Shut up! Zi Yan shouted at the elder who answered with a dark face.

No one dared to speak any objections once the Clan Head gave an order. While looking at Ho Ming Clan Master Zi Yan said in a cold tone '', For many years our Zi clan live peacefully in this valley and now it looks today our clan is being threatened to be destroyed''.

''I would like to know who told you this''. Elder Ho Ming tightened his brow after hearing this then while laughing in a sinister he said" Clan Master Zi Yan you don't need to worry about this, you'll be dead which mean there's no need for you to know about this matter" replied Elder Ho Ming. Seeing that no information could be obtained Clan Master Zi Yan Reaching out his hand as a sword flew toward Clan Head Zi Yan as he stair straight at Ho Ming while saying in a calm voice " It seems that I will have to pry it from you then.

"Come and try," said Elder Ho Ming in a sinister voice. Suddenly the sound of a sword being pulled out a scabbard can be heard as a sword light that can cut mountains in two and split rivers and oceans apart reached in front of Elder Ho Ming before he could finish speaking.

With a wave of his have hand four short blood-red blades flow out and circle Ho Ming bodies."

Without saying anything with a strong resolved Claned Master Zi Yan decided to use his last and strongest move to kill Elder Ho Ming the fastest way possible.
