Maniac

"Let's have a bloodbath.."

Zhong swung his sterling blade and took his stance.

In front of him stood the knights of the demon kingdom who lived independently. All of the knights were ugly monstrous looking creatures with bulky weapons.

Zhong brushed his finger in his long hair and crimson hue flowed out from those disobedient strands. Few of the knights fainted because that crimson hue was actually a deadly poison. He looks around, the same darkness..the same lifeless atmosphere but it was more deadly than the netherworld. The volcanos were bursting every second and hot lava kept flowing on the mountains.

"This is what you call a kingdom? It's more like a battlefield..." Zhong commented, laughing hilariously.

The knights looked at each other and then one of them walked in front. And with a nagging tone he addressed,"First Lord of the netherworld , what makes you come here?"

A tiny smirk played on Zhong's red lips. He pointed his sword at the knight and complained,"General, I'm here to get the newly born dragon."

The knight flinched when he heard about the newly born dragon. The most powerful beast animal of the demon kingdom is always born after every thousand years. And they protect their kingdom for a thousand years until the next dragon is born. The Zhong's asking for their protector made them surprised and pissed off.

The knight instantly replied,"No, that is not possible. We're sorry for not being able to fulfil your request, Lord Zhong Xing Wang."

"Pfft! Do you think I came here for a request?" Zhong flew up in the sky, swinging his blade in the air . He showered the brutal invisible attacks on knights while avoiding the attack of knights.

The ground quickly turned into a blood pool with dead corpses of huge monster's knights. It's so different, whenever Zhong holds his sword he forgets about who exactly he is ! The soul of Feng withers under the brutality of Zhong's actions.

The god of death himself , nothing was hard for him. He was slashing the heads like it was fun...no spark of emotions in his lifeless crimson red eyes. Neither he gets tired nor he wishes to stop his slaughtering.

The general shuddered in terror, he has only heard that first lord of netherworld is maniac. But witnessing it with his own eyes was more terrifying.. He was no less than a devil himself.

After finishing his slaughtering, Zhong glanced at General. His red eyes, the colour of death itself, went straight into his eyes and ripped off that pitiful general's soul , leaving his empty body becoming one with the other corpses.

He steadily walks, dragging his sword behind him. The screeching sound of his blade on the hard rocky surface made the beings of the demon kingdom shiver. No one dared to come in his way... No should ever come in his way if one desires to live.

He stopped in front of a huge cave whose entrance was sealed by a magic wall.

He raised his hands and powerful light formed between his palms, he threw them towards a huge mountain cave with a super speed.

The cave entrance was ruined into tiny pieces of rocks, crushed by the power of Zhong.

He stepped inside and in the middle of the cave was a black flower whose centre was glowing like gold. He smiled and opened the closed petals of the flower.

With a satisfied gesture he assured his pounding heart,"Yu Yan will like it , right?" He questions himself and smiles.

The King of Demon kingdom who just arrived at the battlefield, gazed cluelessly at the Zhong. He couldn't believe his eyes , he was just witnessing Zhong smiling. Maybe His eyes had stopped working!

"So you don't care for your life?" Instantaneously Zhong asked.

The King was taken aback, he didn't think that Zhong would know that he was there. He unsheathed his sword and mocked Zhong,"You can't take away our precious dragon protector."

Zhong's smile disappeared in an instant and his expression came back to his original. He placed the little dragon on the flower and swung his sword downwards to get the blood from the blade.

He stretched his neck and shot a glance at knights who were standing behind the king. All of sudden all the knights clutched their neck and suffocated themselves to death.

The king panicked as he looked at his knights crazily killing themselves.

"What the hell do you think you are doing?"

Zhong sighed and swung his blade , a powerful light emitted out and slashed the damn head of the demon king. He was continuously mocking him and disrespecting him, so rather than wasting time Zhong just ended his pathetic life.

"You don't know how to show respect to deities!"

He picks the baby dragon in his palm and vanishes in the magic circle.

But when he arrived at the palace , Qiang stopped him at the entrance.

Zhong tried to ignore it but the issue seemed serious. He returned back to the court.

After entering inside the court, Zhong saw two heaven's knights waiting there. He leaned over and Qiang asked in curiosity,"Why are they here?"

"Yes , pretend as if you don't know anything." Qiang steps on his seat , Zhong follows him and gets seated.

The knights bowed and announced,"Lord you have slaughtered the demon king without any reason! The almighty god is asking for an explanation!"

Zhong pretended as if he didn't hear them and relaxed his back on the cosy throne. His other hand caressing the baby dragon which was seated on his lap. Qiang chuckled because this was no different. His brother never bothers about dead beings , especially when he is the one who has ended their lives.

Knights instantly asked,"Also what is your relationship with that mortal woman?"

"She is my wife..be respectful!" Zhong ordered, giving them a death stare.

Qiang gasped in shock, he thought they would keep the marriage thing secret. But what the fuck was this situation? The knights were taken aback too...

One of the knights hesitantly asked again,"But isn't she just a sacrificial woman? You should have killed her , taking her in immortal world is not good decision..."

And before that knight could continue saying, Zhong stood up abruptly and grabbed that knight's neck, raising him up .

"Where are your manners? Are you in the position to give advice?"

The knight trembled in fear, his body twisted while he struggled for breath. The grip of Zhong on his neck was suffocating him to death.

Qiang rushed to his brother to stop him. But seeing how rude that knight was, he deserved his brother's anger.

So, Qiang minding his own business left the court disappearing in darkness.

The knight's body numbed, his soul was about to leave his lifeless body when Zhong let him go. Knight fell on the ground with thud and coughed blood.

"Now go back, otherwise I am afraid I'll kill you both.." Zhong picks up the baby dragon and vanishes in his magic circle.
