Chapter 3: Scum of all ages

Tons of days passed and finally, Wang Tian has reached level 1! He stood up and walked towards the kitchen. He quickly layed his gaze on a knife. The knife was about he same of a 350ml bottle. Although it was small, its sharpness couldn't be questioned. Wang Tian grabbed the knife and decisively stabbed it into his flesh. Before Wang Tian stabbed the knife into his flesh, he first activated the "stone" technique and then his flesh turned into the color of the copper. "Clang" the sound of metal hitting another metal echoed about. The knife was deflected by the skin of Wang Tian. 'Amazing!' Wang Tian thought to himself. He also noticed that he was able to control the Qi more fluently and it felt like the pathway the Qi took to enter his body was more open now. 'I've unconsciously reached level 2 in my cultivation!' He thought to himself while wanting to gloat.

From somewhere inside the house, Wang Gui gazed at Wang Tian in amazement. "Wow" he uttered involuntarily. He gasped in amazement and then went back to what he was doing.

Suddenly, Wang Tian was disturbed by someone shouting his name. "Cousin Tian!" a boy with a handsome face shouted. This boy's name was Wang Jhiayi. The son of Wang Gui's brother.

Wang Tian went outside and saw an unfamiliar face smiling at him. He looked at this boy's face deeply while rummaging through his memories. He then instantly found out that this little boy was his cousin. His only friend and family that was ever good to him. Wang Tian smiled at the boy and said, "Cousin".

"Cousin Tian, I haven't seen you for ages! How bout' we go to the market to buy food? I'll pay!"

Wang Jhiayi said towards Wang Tian with a smile. Seeing that this cousin of his didn't have any bad intentions, he nodded and said. "Very well"

When Wang Tian said "very well", Wang Jhiayi suddenly felt that his cousin Tian of his spoke like an old man although only a kid. He suddenly laughed at this thought and shook his head. How would a person like his cousin think and speak like an old man? Clearly he was only imagining things.

The two walked towards the market. After a few minutes, they were there. The bustling sight of people buying and selling emerged in Wang Tian's eyes. Uncountable small stalls were placed in the corners of the street. Numerable disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect could be seen walking to and fro. "Hey you! Today is your lucky day! See this sword? This sword is made out of divine calcite! This sword is very expensive but since I'm a kind man. I will give you a discount. 50% discount!" The man from a stall brandished the sword in his hands and pointed at a young cultivator. The words of the man caught the attention of the young cultivator. Seeing that he was successful in attracting the attention of the young cultivator, he smirked inside his mind. 'What a stupid young man'

"How much is this sword?" The young cultivator asked. "For you? 30 top-tier spirit stones!" The man said with a smile. The expression of the young cultivator didn't change. "Can I have a look at it first?" The young cultivator said. "of course of course." The man who was selling was confident that the young cultivator wouldn't see through his schemes. The sword was indeed eye catching but that was because the sword was painted the color of calcite. The young man looked at the sword in his hands and then took out a treasure. "This is a treasure that can detect the material of a weapon. This treasure was given to me by my father." The young man spoke casually while placing the item on top of the sword. The look on the vendor's face changed. His expression was unsightly and he broke out into cold sweat. 'shit I'm done for' he thought to himself. He then looked at the young man again and then asked his name. "What is your name?" The young man looked at him and said,

"Zhang Xiaofeng"

'Zhang Xiaofeng... Zhang Xiaofeng...' He muttered to himself and then suddenly recalled this name. He looked at the young man deeply and then remembered that the young man was indeed the son of the third elder! The son of Zhang Xuan!

He felt like crying and then quickly said, "Young master, please give me back the sword". The man grabbed the sword but then a dazzling light blinded everyone.

"Level 3 - silver"

These characters appeared in the sky. The young man was not surprised as he said, "You dared to con me? To trick me? I will report this to my father and have you executed." The young man looked at him with a trace of happiness. The man shivered and said, "Please no! Please please don't! I have a family!" The man begged the young man and even got down to his knees!

The young man smirked and kicked the vendor in the head and said, "Die"

Instantly, a hole was torn inside the vendor's head. The crowd gasped. The young man walked towards another shop and the owner of that shop became extremely polite.

Wang Tian and Wang Jhiayi's eyes constricted.

Heavens!

What have I seen?!

Death!

Wang Tian vomited at the sight of blood dripping from someone's forehead while Wang Jhiayi almost fainted.

It all happened in a flash.

Zhang Xiaofeng looked at the two with disdain and said, "kids shouldn't be here". He then dashed towards the two and gave them both lethal kicks to their stomachs. Wang Jhiayi flew a few meters back and broke a stall while Wang Tian's back arched into a C and then reverted back to its original shape. Wang Tian felt a tickle and was shocked. If Wang Tian was shocked by what just happened, imagine Zhang Xiaofeng?!

"What the fuck" Zhang Xiaofeng uttered in shock. He then threw a punch towards Wang Tian's face.

Wang Tian wasn't given a chance to react since he was still shocked by the sudden change of events. Zhang Xiaofeng's fist landed on Wang Tian's face and then was repelled.

"What the..." Zhang Xiaofeng said in shock. "What the hell are you?!" He screamed in shock. The people surrounding them also gasped in shock and some even said, "What... what is he? Is he a demon kid?!"

The punch that Zhang Xiaofeng threw towards Wang Tian woke him up. He gazed at Zhang Xiaofeng and then touched his face. 'It doesn't hurt...' He thought to himself. Then he suddenly recalled his encounter with a figure called Death. The one who gave him this new life. 'So this is what he meant by Invincibility' He thought to himself. 'I'm fucking indestructible?' He then looked at Zhang Xiaofeng with shining eyes.

"hit me again!" He said excitedly .

Zhang Xiaofeng looked at Wang Tian as if he were a freak. He might have acted like a cool kid before but seeing that his opponent wasn't damaged by his punch and kick, his confidence went down.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaofeng wasn't moving, he quickly grabbed Zhang Xiaofeng's hands and then hit his head with them. Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes turned bloodshot as he couldn't resist Wang Tian's grip. "Hey scum let go of me!" Zhang Xiaofeng yelled. "I'm the son of Zhang Xuan! The third elder of the Seven Star Sword Sect yet you dare to harass me?!"

Wang Tian ignored his screams and then returned to hitting his head with Zhang Xiaofeng's hands.

"Bastard I'm going to make you pay for what you did! My father will not tolerate this!" Zhang Xiaofeng gritted his teeth and declared. Wang Tian then released his grip when he heard this and a look of satisfaction surfaced on his face.

'I really am invincible.' He thought to himself while grinning. In Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes, Wang Tian's grin looked like the grin of the devil.

Note: He didn't activate his technique when he was being 'punched by Zhang Xiaofeng' since he was shocked by his own abilities hehe.

Zhang Xiaofeng quickly ran towards his father while yelling, "You will pay for this!!"

The confidence and coolness that he let out a while ago was nowhere to be seen. His daoist robe fluttered in the wind as he ran. His long hair covered his eyes that were bloodshot and confused. His little legs were shaking. Take note, Wang Tian and his cousin are both little kids. Zhang Xiaofeng is about the same age as the both of them so the fear that he felt when he noticed something irregular scared his wits out of him.

While Wang Tian was in a good mood, he heard a cough that was extremely heavy. He then remembered that he was with his cousin. Suppressing his excitement, he hurriedly looked towards the direction of his cousin.

When he saw that his cousin was in a sorry state, he yelled, "Cousin!!" and then ran to support his cousin.

Wang Jhiayi's blood was dripping from his mouth. His face was pale and his complexion was unsightly. Clearly he was severely injured by Zhang Xiaofeng's mighty kick. His clothes were a mess and the shop that he landed in was destroyed.

A while ago, when the shop owner saw a figure flying towards him uncontrollably, he panicked and fled towards a safe location and only came back when only silence was in the air. Now he was standing near Wang Jhiayi, his face was unsightly and his anger burned.

"You!... you destroyed my shop! How are you going to pay for this?! I have a family to feed! This shop was given to me by my father! How..." The shop owner raged and yelled while pointing towards Wang Tian.

Wang Tian looked at him awkwardly and then asked the shop owner for a piece of paper, wrote his name in it and said,

"This is my name. Find me and I'll pay for all the damage that we have caused."

The shop owner took the piece of paper and then read it. "Wang Tian..." He contemplated. "That Wang Tian?! The son of Wang Gui?!" He looked at Wang Tian as if he saw a monster. He almost fainted from shock. What bad luck he had!

To meet the heirs of two legendary figures in the day! What luck!

One was the descendant of the third elder and one was the descendant of the weapon smither of the Seven Star Sword Sect! It was rumored that Wang Gui loves his son more than anything in this world. A righteous man and a loving father.

Seeing the expression of the shop owner, Wang Tian understood and said, "It's fine. I'll explain to him what happened. He won't kill you don't worry." He then looked at Wang Jhiayi and seeing that the latter was still severly injured, he lifted him up, carried him in his arms and then ran towards his father's shop.

At this time of the day, his father would be in his shop. Smithing some weapons or cultivating. His father is a cultivation maniac but he neither neglected his work or his son.

...

"What happened to him?" A figure clad in blue said seriously. This man looked to be in his 40s. He emitted a dominating aura and his hair was silky white. He had a beard that made him look like an expert. His eyes could easily see through your soul. The man was neither robust nor skinny. This man was the father of Wang Jhiayi! And also the brother of Wang Tian.

Wang Tian explained everything to him and his father. As Wang Tian got deeper into what happened, the face of Wang Gui and Wang Chen looked more and more unsightly.

"Outrageous!" Wang Chen exclaimed in anger. "A child dared to throw his weight inside this sect and dared to kill in broad daylight?! This is unacceptable." Wang Chen was fuming with rage.

Wang Gui said nothing but his expression showed that he was extremely angry. They both exuded auras that could easily make a lower-leveled cultivator out of breath.

"Zhang Xiaofeng... Zhang Xuan, even if you are the third elder of this sect. You must judge this case fairly, if you don't, you will die in my hands."

Wang Chen declared.
