Kunlun Mountain...
A mountain which was used to be a holy place for cultivation of pure and immortal energy was burning in a battle for a tool which is full of evil energy- Xian Wu Seal. The mountain was full of blood and screams. The holy land was painted red and the always full of joy environment was filled with loud screams. Hundreds of disciples were already killed and others were fighting for Life but the killers were in nk intention to show any mercy.
The battle were already towards it's end. The masters were already exhausted their souls and all the hundreds of disciples were moved towards heaven. Except the young master of the Kunlun Mountain.
"Shi Yan, your father is dead, your brothers and sisters are already give up on their souls, you have no way out from here, unless you give up the Seal and surrender yourself. Otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless." A man in white rob with gray hair, holding a long sword directing towards a boy who was not more than nineteen years old., spoke.
Shi Yan, the boy, who was standing on the peak of the mountain holding a naked sword in his right hand and Xian Wu Seal in his left hand, dressed in black rob with red border, hairs flying in air, the corners of his eyes were red and because of non-stop fighting against so many cultivaters, his internal energy was also distorted. He coughed blood which made his teeth and lips appear scarlet red. He looked around and saw the dead body his once peers and his father. Nothing and no one is left for him to fight for. But doesn't mean there is any reason to loss either.
With a snort he spoke, "Huh. Give up the Seal and surrender myself? And you'll let me off?" Shi Yan laughed and drew a sharp gaze towards the man who spoke first, "Lan Ling Wan, look around you and see. These dead bodies are of them who were my closest one. Becouse for power you killed my father, killed my brother and sisters and still you want me to believe you? Even if you let me off today, I still won't let you achieve for the things, you become so inhuman. I'll let you have a test of exhausting your every means still can't achieving your goal." Shi Yan said with a evil laugh, showing his firm determination.
"Lan Ling Wan, do you remember when I first came to your sect three years ago to learn from you and gain an experience of the outside world?" Shi Yan said reminiscing the memory.
"Well, I have to say that at that time you were really good at playing a perfect righteous sect leader." Suddenly the aura around him changed from an soft breeze of spring to dark clouds of stormy night.
"But who would have thought, the man who wears white from head to toe, would have a heart more blacker than moonless night, so evil that even Devil God himself would be shy of, so cruel and so ruthless that even God of Wrath will be more merciful than him?" He glared at him and continued, "Lan Ling Wan, what did you think before leading these hopeless righteous people who think of themselves as most righteous, powerful and intelligent, here? Did you think that they can destroy my home to get the seal and still can go away with ease?" Shi Yan gave a light evil chuckle. "Well let me blow your little bubble. Even if my father is dead, my brothers and sisters are dead. As long I, Shi Yan, is alive nor I'm giving up on Xian Wu Seal neither I'm going to surrender myself. If you have the courage and strength then kill me and take it. Otherwise as long as I'm alive, don't even think about touching it." He said and in a swift motion fly away from the peak of the mountain leaving the destroy mountain behind him. His home.
"What are you all looking at? Follow him and capture him. Dead or alive. Don't let the evil escape." Lan Ling Wan ordered his subordinates who came in his aid to capture the 'evil' and share the 'hounour'.
"Yes, sect leader."
"Yes, sect leader."
All his subordinates replied in unison and went after Shi Yan.
But who are we kidding with? It's Shi Yan. As long as he doesn't want to be caught, no one can get him.
Before long Shi Yan was already disappeared from Kunlun Mountain. All cultivaters who were searching for him, had searched whole Kunlun Mountain in vain till no corner of Kunlun Mountain was left unsearched. But Shi Yan was nowhere to be found.
.....
Far from Kunlun Mountain. On the bank of the Ruoshui river, a young boy not more than nineteen years old, clad in gray robs, was holding a sword in his left hand and washing his face by the other before filling his water bag by the river water when suddenly his eyes went to a figure floating on the surface of river water.
"Hey, Shao Ruo, look at that." The boy shouted for his friend who was resting not far from there.
A boy same age as him, clad in white rob was resting supporting his back to a trunk of old tree. His eyes were close and his think black eyelashes were kissing his cheekbones. A few strand of hairs were teasing his face like black clouds trying to hide moon behind them. A long sword was resting on his chest which he was holding in his right hand while crossing his arms on his chest to get a more comfortable position against the old tree.
His perfect bow like eyebrows moved hearing his friend's shouting. He squeezed his eyes before opening it and looked in his direction with a frosty gaze.
"What happened? Why are you shouting in this way?" Shao Ruo asked in his cold and distant tone to his friend, Wei Xin.
"Look at that." Wei Xin spoke while pointing towards the direction where that figure was floating.
Hearing his friend, Shao Ruo also looked in the pointed direction. From where he was seating, he couldn't figure out what exactly was going on but he could see it was a human figure which was floating on the water surface along the water river.
Shao Ruo didn't wasted any more moment before flying over there and took the man away from water, near his friend, Wei Xin, on the bank of the river.
"...." Wei Xin took a look at the man in the arms of his dear friend before looking at his friend himself. "This....."
Shao Ruo was also looking at the man in his arms. His brows were furrowed making a V in the middle of his brows. He took a overall look at the man before patting his cheeks softly.
"Shi Yan." He called him slowly and softly as if a mother trying to wake his sleeping son.
