Five young teenagers of around age 15 could be seen dashing across the street. They passed by various shops and houses.
Jumping across various obstacles in their paths, be it fruits, stones...they moved skillfully through the crowd...yet they weren't less than 3 meters away from each other.
The five siblings by the name:
Zeras, Einstein, Leonel, Damien and finally Fenix all dashed through the wide array of travellers and buyers who sought to buy one good or the other.
"I wonder how wine taste." Leonel, the one among them, with long green hair and slightly developed-well defined muscles, that could give one the chills just by merely looking at them said.
"Tsk, of course it better be worth it. After all we sneaked out of the clan all because of it."
Fenix replied in ecstacy as they moved through the crowd.
Einstein as usual choosed to keep quiet and simply followed his siblings, as they moved through the wide array of various people from various towns.
They finally arrived at their destination.
They stood two large and tall pillars that held a kind of poster, and on it read; Clear Sky City.
"So this is how a city looks like. It's quite big and grand...compared to our petty Profound Sky Town." Damien said.
The others weren't surprised with the use of his words, after all if there was one thing that Damien lacked...be it talent or strength, he had them...but he surely lacked manners and was as proud as one could ever get.
"Can't wait to taste that wine...The way Elder Fang always looks like whenever he drinks wine is the testament to the greatness of wine. It would be a shame if we can't try them out." Zeras said, as his green eyes seemed to lit up a little.
"We are already here already...so what do you all say about entering and grabbing some wine." Fenix replied in ecstacy as they all bursted into a wave of laughter.
They quickly made way into the city, as soon as they were about to pass beside two men in armors made of copper, and both had a sword sheated beside their waist.
One of the men suddenly called out.
"Hey!!! Stop right there."
They all stopped almost at the same time, and glanced beside them...only to see two men in armors...they knew without a doubts that they were the city guards.
'But why will they call for us.' Fenix let out a frown.
"Yes." Damien replied, with a hint of arrogance obvious within his tone.
"Do I need to remind you before you pay." The city guard replied.
Although unwilling, they knew they had no choice but to pay.
Fenix had a dissatisfied look on his face, as he brought out two copper coins from his waist and threw it towards the city guard, who caught it and signalled for them to leave by waving his hands.
He couldn't be bothered with them anymore, after all they had already done the right thing.
After they walked for a while and asked around. They finally got into a wine tavern.
"Fuck, who would have known that wine was so expensive." Fenix said as he took in a mouthful gulp of it.
His face flushed red for a second, and as soon as he revolved his breathing exercise; "The True Martial Origin Scripture."
He immediately felt relieved and could even feel himself growing stronger, albeit almost at a superficial rate; yet there was no doubt about something.
The wine was helpful to one's cultivation.
"Told you guys it would be expensive, especially since it's from the city." Einstein replied as he poured the wine into a small cup and then took in a sip, before he raised his eyebrows and drank everything in one full gulp.
"Is it just me or is this wine able to increade one's cultivation level." They exclaimed almost at the same time, as the fellow drinkers around them wondered what was wrong with the kids and why are they even allowed here in the first place.
Of course, how could they have known that Fenix had bribed the attendant, so they could be allowed to stay and most importantly drink. After all they were all just 15 years and hadn't even reached 18 years of age.
"Yet, albeit at a superficial rate..." Einstein said.
"It's still something." Zeras replied with a nonchalant expression.
"What a pity we have already spent all our copper coins..." Leonel exclaimed in a dissatisfied tone.
"Well, we still have the ones on the table to settle our quench." Fenix replied, as he took in another mouthful gulp of wine.
'wonder if it's because we all cultivate the True Martial Origin Scripture or if the wine truly is that unique.' Fenix raised his brow.
Finally, after 15 minutes. They were done with drinking.
"Finally, we got to taste how wine feels like." Leonel said in ecstacy.
"Yeah...and it didn't dissapoint." Fenix replied.
"Nggh...a muffled...pained voice of a horse resounded across the area.
As the brothers suddenly saw a horse, with an horseman on top of it while it dragged a carriage across the streets.
"You dogs!! how dare you hinder the way." The horseman barked, as he whipped forth, the whip going for the brothers.
Damien golden pupils seemed to suddenly flare up with intense anger, veins bulging throughout his body.
'yeah... he's about to have it.' Fenix had a smirk spread across his face.
And in a way that shocked the crowd and passengers...he caught hold of the whip...forcefully jerking it forward. The horseman was immediately thrown away, crashing against a stall filled with various metals.
Kaboom!!!!
Blood flowed down from the horseman's head, as his eyes slowly lost the light within them...and he immediately went unconscious.
But it didn't seem as though Damien was through, seeing the horse that had lost control and was heading forth in an awkward manner.... he wasted no time in delivering a perfect kick to the legs of the horse, that he was sure was without a doubt a wild/vicious beast after his legs collided with that of the beast.
Boom!!!! The sound of collision spread through the entire area, as the horse tumbled in a frenzied manner, colliding against various stalls.
Bang!!!
Boom!!!!
Clang!!!!
Before it finally came to a stop.
Everyone looked at Damien as though they were looking at a monster.
After all it was a known fact that a vicious beast had far stronger bodies than that of low level cultivators, so how strong was the kid's kick to be able to cause such a devastating effect on the vicious beast.
Damien seeing the result, nod his head; before dusting his hands.
"That should teach you a lesson, dog!" He said furiously.
"Alright, enough Damien... let's leave." Einstein interjected.
They made way to move when they suddenly heard a melodic voice with a harsh comment.
"Who was the fucking dog that messed with my carriage." She asked in a furious tone.
"Well...well, isn't that a beauty." Damien licked his lips.
"Seems that the servant has gotten Its traits from his master...like servant like master."
Zeras replied.
"You wretched fools!! How dare you abuse this young lady...am going to kill you." She suddenly moved and her cultivation level instantly became obvious to all.
"Hmm, second stage- low level strength training stage, yet she seems to be just around 13 years old...what a monster!"
Einstein mused with a raised eyebrow.
'for her to possess such a cultivation level at such a young age, then it means she comes from a big clan.'
Damien suddenly moved, Einstein just realized what this implied and was about to stop Damien, but it was already too late.
"How dare a mere 1st stage-essence condensation stage practitioner dare trade blows with me. Die!!!!"
She roared in anger.
'So what if you are at the strength training stage...if it's fighting above levels...then sorry for you...but that just happens to be my area of expertise.'
A smirk spread across Damien's face as they collided with each other, each throwing out a punch.
And then...
Kaboom!!!!!
Terrifying shockwaves spread through the air, as a figure was sent flying through the sky, landing with a forceful thud; while spitting out a mouthful of blood.
'how is that possible, I am at the second stage.'
She couldn't believe it, but reality just happens to be a bitch.
And it bit her really hard.
"Lady, next time...be sure to train your dog well...also it will do well for you to learn some manners." Damien said, as Fenix rolled his eyes.
'see the one lecturing someone else about manners.'
"Alright, enough of all this." Einstein said, before releasing a sigh.
"Let's get going." He further added, as they all left the place, leaving the shocked onlookers and the injured beauty to fate hands.
Not long after they left the place.
Approximately some minutes...after rhe siblings were already back within their clan, the Asura clan.
They had always wondered why a low level clan such as theirs' possessed such a domineering name. But they just couldn't wrap their heads around it.
Apart from the True Martial Origin Scripture gotten within the forbidden ground of the clan, everything else about the clan was in no doubt ...trashy to say the least.
"Who dares to harm the young lady, who???" A man roared out furiously, as no one was able to give an answer, after all they didn't even know the kids...not to talk of the fact that the kids weren't at fault.
So they all choosed to stay silence.
"Fine, fine...clear sky city...I will remember this." The man said, he glanced at the horseman with obvious disdain, before carrying the young lady, as he vanished into the distance.
Some hours later...
Within a mansion, a man who exuded a powerful aura could be seen emanating with intense fury and anger.
After hearing the whole tale from the horseman after the horseman had awakened.
"Find out who...find out who dared to injure my daughter." His powerful voice shook the whole mansion, as every one knew the one who had dared to injure that apple of the eyes of the Marquis, himself wouldn't have it well.
Within the Asura clan, the brothers could be seen talking to each other; sitting in a circular pattern.
"So you mean because she is from a big clan, I should have just reigned in defeat and allow that spoiled brat to wallow over him." Damien replied Einstein.
"Over my dead body." He further added, as he spat onto the ground.
"As arrogant and prideful as ever" Fenix said.
Just as they were about to continue their talk or better still, argument.
And then suddenly.... Kaboom!!!!!!
Boom!!!!!!
Puchi!!!!
"Nooo...."
"Please, don't kill me; I don't want to die."
"Why??? why??"
Shreiks and wails of various magnitude and frequency suddenly echoed out across the entirety of the Asura clan.
"What the heck was that." Leonel said as he jerked up from his seated position, immediately followed by his siblings.
As they made way outside.
And immediately they got outside...they were confused, angry and heartbroken by what they saw.
In front of them laid various dead bodies of people that were once familiars of them.
Deep anger surged within them...yet one followed by confusion.
'What's going on. '
'What's happening.'
They were confused and lost in the consecutive fast events that had suddenly played out.
They suddenly saw the clan leader before them, beside him laid several corpses and blood flowed like river across the ground.
"Isn't that grandpa...Thank God, he's still alive. We have to ask him what's going on." Leonel said, as he suddenly made way for his grandpa.
"Grandpa, grandpa"...he called out.
"Noo!!! Don't come here."
The clan leader, Zephas said.
"Hehehe, isn't this the kids we have been looking for." A voice suddenly boomed out, as various men in black suddenly appeared out of various places
'They dared to harm the young lady and they still want to live...fools.'
"Kill them all." The leader of the men in black suddenly ordered.
As his subordinates wasted no time in moving, as they made way for the siblings; to send them to death's door.
"Einstein, take your brothers and escape through the hidden valley." The clan leader commanded.
Seeing the reluctance on Einstein's face. He further added.
"Now!!!!"
And immediately he said that, he moved to stop the men in black; he rushed towards them to buy the siblings some time.
"Buy some time for the young masters" A voice suddenly resounded.
As the remaining survivors all rushed towards the men in black.
Tap, tap.
Diiieee!!!!!!
But just as swiftly and they came, they were also swiftly met with their demise, including zephas.
Their heads were severed from their body, as blood dyed the entire ground in deep red.
"Noooo!!!!"
A terrific wail escaped Leonel's lips.
The siblings upon seeing such a scene had tears welling up within their eyes, anger surging greatly within them.
But they knew better to control their wild impulses and listen to the last command of their grandpa.
They immediately turned back, and dashed towards the distance, hot on their tails were the men in black.
The men in black moved swiftly and with great agility, and Einstein knew without a doubt that should they continue this way, then they would eventually be met with their demise.
Everyone, escape in different directions." Einstein said while gritting his teeth.
He looked back and saw one of the men in black just right behind them, and immediately he suddenly flicked his arms.
As a reddish dagger suddenly flared to life, piercing through the skull of the man, who fell onto the ground with a loud thud.
The men in black upon seeing such a scene, were shocked and shaken for a while...although a short while...it was more than enough for the siblings to cover some distance as they dissapeared into the distance.
The leader of the men in black upon seeing this had his heart turn cold.
'a first stage practitioner, easily killing a peak second stage practitioner.'
With such a talent, he knew he couldn't allow them to leave; he couldn't allow them to escape.
They had to diee!!!!
Hence he gave the order...
"Chase after them...and be sure to leave no one alive."
Immediately he gave the command, they all regained their senses from their shocked state as they immediately chased after the siblings.
Separating themselves into five groups.
They had only one mission to accomplish.
Kill the siblings...
And they would either accomplish it or die accomplishing it.
Now the hunt begins...but a question remains.
Will Fenix and his siblings escape, and exact their revenge...or will they just like another average clan with average talents, be erased from existence and washed away by the passage of time.
