BIRTH OF DRAGON WARRIORS
25 - Chaos in Lianyi City

A woman with wavy red hair was seen standing on the roof of the tallest building of Lianyi City. The figure of the woman gazed towards Mount Wushi and saw a red lightning in her eyes.

The woman was not alone, she was with five cultivators dressed in red with the moon orchid pattern. They were all from the Dead Moon Sect, the Black Stream. The woman herself was none other than the daughter of the sect elder, Xue Xiaowen.

"Are you all ready?" xue Xiaowen's voice broke the silence of the night. Five people who were each on the roof of a different building seemed to grin, two of them were women with similar faces.

One of the women was seen toying with her hair. He said, "Miss Xiaowen. Are we going to face the 13 Elders of the Wushi Mountain Sect?"

The woman blinked and again said, "I'm actually fine, but I don't want to face them head-on."

"You're afraid they'll beat you?" a young man is being teased. He held a waist-high fan beside him. "Let me attack first if you're afraid, or you can return to the sect."

"Who said I was scared. Just think with your head. Even if you're very good, but we're coming to the enemy base. 13 Elders of the Wushi Mountain Sect... Don't underestimate them. Moreover, there were still his students there. Even if they are weak, they will still be troublesome."

Xue Xiaowen looked at the woman who was her partner and said without a tone. "Don't lower yourself. You guys I didn't bring here to die in vain. Let's go,"

The Wushi Mountain Sect has 13 Elders and each has its own residence. Among those elders, there were six people who liked venturing into the outside world. The rest remained in the sect and occasionally descended the mountain bringing their disciples to carry out missions.

One of the elders of the Wushi Mountain Sect was named Zhang Lao. He looked like a 36-year-old man and was currently practicing swordsmanship in his residence courtyard.

Although the practice was already quite high, but Elder Zhang Lao was still not satisfied. He wanted to perfect his Lightning Circle Slash sword technique so that it could be used to deal with demonic beasts and protect many people.

Some of the outer disciples of the Wushi Mountain Sect, those who had not chosen 'Shizun' were practicing the night inside the forest. It was just that there were also female disciples along with her friends who preferred to peek at Elder Zhang Lao practicing.

The presence of this disciple was clearly realized by Elder Zhang Lao, yet he did not think about it any further. For him this can actually be a medium for students to learn something from him.

The elders usually surrounded their residence with a barrier of spiritual energy, therefore they could tell if an outsider had entered the territory. Of course, Elder Zhang Lao did the same.

The disciples who were watching Elder Zhang Lao were so amazed by the great talent of the man. There were among them who had actually applied to become disciples of this extraordinary Elder Zhang, but Elder Zhang himself had never been willing to accept female disciples.

Elder Zhang Lao was actually kind, he could also be easy to talk to if any woman greeted him. But if to accept them into discipleship, the rejection was so resolute and a decision that could not be changed.

!!

The last move made by Elder Zhang Lao created a loud roar of lightning, the disciples who were treating him seemed to clench in awe and would only praise when a sudden gust of wind brought about an uncomfortable feeling.

Elder Zhang Lao gasped, this was the faint scent of blood and was proof that something bad was going on right now. He felt the direction of his wind that was none other than coming from the city. The shock that was seen on his face was so clear, he immediately darted away.

"W-what happened?!" one of the female disciples was shocked to see Elder Zhang Lao who had suddenly left. His feelings became worried.

"This scent." Another female disciple who had a better smell than her peers was instantly startled, "This scent of blood... Oh, no."

"Hey, wait!"

*

Not only the female disciple and Elder Zhang Lao smelled the scent, but also the other disciples who were training inside the forest, one of them was the figure of Nalan Shu. The Sacred Swordsman who occupied the fourth position immediately shot towards Lianyi City.

The current condition is dark, even so late and at times like this is usually something unexpected happens. What was visible under the sky of Lianyi City was definitely not a beautiful thing to look at.

!!!

There were many sounds of screams of pain and the previously calm atmosphere was now filled with deafening rumpus. Several doors and windows of the building opened, the people who lived in it came out holding firmly their chests as if in great pain.

Some were seen falling with both hands scratching their chests to the point of bleeding and some even strangled their own necks crazily. Not to mention, there are those who run and throw their heads into a barrel filled with water.

There have been many casualties and the condition of their bodies is so terrible. Elder Zhang Lao who had just arrived was so shocked to see the conditions around him.

Ahhhh..!

Ahhhh..!

The man who had already suffered many injuries glared sharply at the figure beside him. He growled and immediately gave a kick. Elder Zhang Lao flinched, yet he was still able to dodge that shocking attack.

!!

The few citizens of Lianyi City who were in pain in an instant changed their expressions. Those people gave sharp gazes with killing intent to Elder Zhang Lao and that second also the fight instantly broke out.

Elder Zhang Lao could not swing a sword to kill these people because they were citizens of Lianyi City. Especially if it is considered carefully, these lay people are clearly in an influence of one's style. All he could do was to fend off and dodge the attack at hand.

Far away elsewhere, Chu Kai looked uneasy in his sleep. Sweat points formed on his forehead and both of his hands firmly gripped the pedestal from his bed. He suddenly woke up and felt like he was surprised.

Chu Kai's breathing was irregular. He held his chest firmly and tried to breathe well. The nightmare he had just experienced felt so real that it made the beating on his heart beat so fast.

"Heah... Gosh," Chu Kai shook his head slowly. "I've never had a dream this bad. Haaah... Oh my gosh,"

Chu Kai rubbed his face and then looked at the two children who were rooming with him. That disciple of the Wushi Mountain Sect was still seen sound asleep. He exhaled and got out of bed.

Chu Kai walked out of the residence. There was a water reservoir at the back of her room and she went there to wash her face. The moon is still shining up there and the conditions around it are so dark. It was just that the illumination from the bamboo torch in this place was enough for Chu Kai that he did not need to fumble the way.

Chu Kai's intention was just to wash his face and drink, but it was unexpected that his ears heard a strange sound and made him surprised, even to the point of widening his eyes.

Chu Kai spontaneously turned around. He looked towards the dark forest and with an unnaturally agitated feeling. This was clearly different from his nightmare earlier.

Chu Kai knelt down and stuck his ear to the ground. He could clearly hear the noisily sounds of the night bugs, but his instincts allowed him to hear other, more unusual sounds. It was the sound of roaring roars and sword slashes.

!!!

Chu Kai immediately woke up with an even more shocked facial expression. His heartbeat quickened even faster, moreover he was sure to hear the screams from his father. It was truly a voice belonging to his father, Chu Tian.

"Dad..!" Chu Kai hurried over. He dashed into the forest with an unusually agitated feeling. His father is in danger now, he has to help him.

The chaos in Lianyi City was still going on. Elder Zhang Lao was in an overwhelmed situation because he had to withstand his strength so as not to finish off the lives of the citizens affected by this bad technique.

On the other hand, the townspeople fighting Elder Zhang Lao were clearly exerting their full strength, even with great killing intent. These citizens put their opponents in difficult conditions.

Nalan Shu who was now in Lianyi City was visibly growled with annoyance, "What is really going on this?!"

Although Nalan Shu had previously focused on training to improve his fighting techniques, but felt an uneasy feeling - he abandoned his training and came to this city. But unexpectedly, he was greeted with chaos that was somehow made by whom.

Nalan Shu dodged the attacks of two civilians. They were men who groaned in pain, yet could not control their own body movements. It felt as if something was controlling their movements.

"How's this? There's no way I'm going to kill them" Nalan Shu tried to think of the best way to deal with these people, but he still hasn't found a workable way.

Nalan Shu needed time, but the situation before him was impossible to wait. The citizens of Lianyi City who were under the influence of this strange technique continued to attack, even the person controlling them did not care that the citizens groaned in pain.

Nalan Shu used a twisting motion and as he was about to kick one of the citizens his eyes caught a silvery trajectory that looked like thread.

Without hesitation, Nalan Shu slashed the stretch of silvery thin thread. It was just that at the same time, shock filled his face.

!!

It was not the thread that broke, but Nalan Shu's sword that broke. The little girl, known as one of the Saints, was shocked to learn that her attack had been broken. And not only that, but his sword broke.

"No way..."
