In the restaurant, Zero is currently eating slowly the food he orders, while listening to the performer, waiting what's more trouble to come in this place.
Not long enough, a shout reverberates outside, with those proudful voices of an old man. "Jin Ru Mei, come out and explained yourself!"
2 Sky realm stage... Zero thought in the corner.
Jin Ru Mei appeared on the door of the kitchen, looking over to a group that entered her restaurant, emitting a cold aura as she glared at them.
"What is it? You already know who's fault it is, or you're just pretending to be blind" Jin Ru Mei said coldly.
Why tell if you already know the answer... he sneers inside.
"We demand that you come with us, and receive your punishment." He spoke as though he was the law.
"What if I said no?" Mei said icily.
"Then we force you!" The leader said, not scared of consequences to attack her.
This woman is actually the grand-daughter of the two Grand Elder of the clan. So basically, he needed to respect this woman but things change. His lord the first elder is fighting on the throne to become the next patriarch.
So he needs backing to succeed, he contacted the black gate organization to help him win the throne with the exchange of the city to become their base and hideout. He agreed and things change.
But all of this is not needed to become the patriarch. He is the most powerful of his generation second to the grand elder, and he became the most anticipated to succeed in the throne when the grand elder son died.
But he is not certain, to make sure, he wanted to marry their granddaughter, Jin Ru Mei. But his plan didn't work when a bastard commoner showed up and Jin Ru Mei falls in love with this lowly man.
Jin Ru Mei is a heavenly gifted child, in the young age of 11, she broke to the profound realm, 4 years after that, she ascends to become a nascent realm in the age of 15, and in the age of 21, she succeed to enter Earth realm, thing happened to her fast, gaining the title of a heavenly child.
That time, his lord the first elder is currently on Earth 9th stage realm and anticipated to become the fifth Sky realm expert of the clan at the age of 45.
Rumors spread, that they're meant for each other, even though their age are apart from each other, but in the cultivation world, this thing is not important as they only stayed in the age of 30's look's, it's only a matter of time when they will look an old person when they lifespan is whithering.
With those rumors, a faint smile on his face can never be able to hide as he wears it every day. In his eyes, he loves Jin Ru Mei because of her look not on his heart, his priority is to become a patriarch and become the ruler of this territory.
But hearing the nasty news that Mei is falling in love in a commoner and already planning to get married, he frantically and vexed demanded the two grand-elder to not give their permission. But the two grand elders approve, seeing how happy Mei talks about the man with a smile that they didn't see as she grow up, they missis their angel pure smile.
They've fully supported her as they didn't care even though she has many suitors that really matched her status.
That day, the first elder succeeding to the throne fall apart not because of Jin Ru Mei marrying another man. It's because of his greed, as he frantically shouts with those vex voice of him, that red eye's that been restless to find someone to hit, relieving his tempered that been erupted for the first time.
Grand-elders have already been decided in the beginning when their son died that he will be the next patriarch, but now, seeing those vex behavior of him, doubt started to form on their mind, thinking that if it's really good decision to let him lead the clan.
Discussing it, they'd been decided that he will temporarily step out on his position and think what his action was.
He supposed to be better after this, but the backfire of their action is worse that they thought of. With the first-elder hysterical mind, he planned everything that will make him surely the patriarch.
So he contacted the black gate to make a deal. They infiltrated the city until it's already been too late to be stopped, making the clan situation in a bad position.
Without intel of how many sky-realm experts that black gate deploys on their city, they cannot take the risk of all-out war, which civilians will be caught on this bloody battle.
Although they are in this spot, they can still surpass the enemy's using the law of the city. If the enemy didn't abide by the law, the neutral expert will surely support the Jin clan to obliterate them.
So here they are using the law that the enemy trying to suppress them.
With a boom, the leader aura surged out as the wind pushed away his followers beside him. Sky-realm 1st stage
"Trying to become a man?" Jin Ru Mei snort, her cultivation surge out too, Sky realm 2nd stage peak.
Truly heavenly gifted... The enemy's thought constricted their face as asking themself if they can win.
"Don't falter! we have the number on our side! I'll fight him while you'll all attack him on the side, we can win!" He shouted to wash away their worry. There's still sky-realm on his back, and it's sky-realm 5 stage! there no way he's going to die here!
The leader lunge forward, he raised his sword swinging down. Mei, on the other hand, manifest a rapier on her hand and blocked the attack.
The collision of the two swords shook the place and wind surged like a storm, circling them as it dances.
With wits of thinking, Mei uses her left hand to grab his collar and dragged him like a ragged-doll, not wanting to be cornered to narrow place to die. She didn't worry that they will use the children to make her submit, knowing that they will break the rules of the clan.
Three earth-stage realms followed outside and tried to attack Jin Ru Mei on her back.
Mei takes her hand off to the leader collar, with a big step backward, she slashed horizontally, her movement is so fast creating an illusion of half crescent moon, slashing those three in the back. Caught off guard with those lunge forward of their body as they go straight to her rapier, they can only put the sword on their front to block.
Mei rapier hit the man in the right first, with sharped gritting metal, the enemy sword shattered and slicing him in two. The sharp gritting metals sounded again, luckily to the second guy, Mei force was already been decreased a good portion of strength, So with confidence, he blocked the rapier with his sword, but out of nowhere, a surge of strength on Mei's hand has been applied on her rapier, piercing the defense of the second guy too, slicing him like the first guy in two.
And lastly, the third guy, he put her whole stance in defense, raising right elbow of his as he gripped the sword up-sided down, and used his other hand to clutch the sword tip with his palm. Seeing his teammate die, he did not bet too challenge Mei's strength over his.
Mei, suddenly smirk as she looked over to the idiot. The enemy became daze of how she was smirking. Is she confident to kill me? No! That's impossible.
Mei rapier suddenly vanish without a trace and reappear again on her hand and its tip was now between the enemy sword and his armpits, with her momentum of slashing, it penetrated the enemy soft body like a jelly.
It penetrated the whole body and cut him half, started to his armpit throughout in his shoulder. Mei was still not done, she spins one more time and her foot kicked the man's head sending it to the wall along with its bloody shoulder.
At that moment, the leader has already recovered as he lunges forward to attack. With the clunking sound of metal, the two exchanged many attacks as their sword created sparkling light in the brood-daylight.
The leader got impatient and used his technique. He shouted. "After Attack!" He pulled his body backward and swung down with a momentum of a hundred pounds.
Mei, with those close exchanges, can only grit her teeth to receive the attack. With a bang, the ground cracked underneath her as she held her ground proudly.
With how the attack came forwards, its how it came backward, charging for another powerful attack.
"Wooo... Ahhh!" He inhaled deeply, before shouting to attack, thrusting his sword forwards.
*BANG!**Sound of groundbreaking*
Veins became visible on Mei's forehead as she gritted her teeth and a slight blood peek on her lips.
With taking the risk to receive the attack opportunity has been revealed itself as the enemy defense was down, recoiling its hand back to defend.
"Three Darting Butterfly!" She shouted.
Three illusionary sharped light her sword made as it's so fast that, it's looked like the attack delivered at the same time. With tearing flesh sound, her rapier pierces through on his shoulder and wrist trying to defend.
And the third thrust is now heading over to his head, thoughts of despaired flash on his eye's as he imagines how he will die.
But his eye dimmed in light, remembered that he had still sky-realm on his back. "SAVE ME HYPE SNAKE!!!" Shouted vexed.
"You old fool, your such a pain" A voice answered. With that voice the world time seems stopped, a young man appeared in the back of, Mei, as his hand raised above his head. Jin Ru Mei, instinct cold on her back sensing the dangered.
On the side, Zero, the one quietly drinking his tea slowly raised his left hand just head above level.
With his eyes, the man fled on him, but to the people and the bystander, the young didn't fly or anything, he'd more like been teleported out of thin air not leaving a trace of clothes.
The time resumed, with, Mei, attacking the leader's head continued piecing it and pulled it fast to face the danger to the back
Before the leader consciously disappears, he sees the man that supposed to save him are struggling like chicken to free himself. Grasped by the man inside the restaurant, not putting effort into it, to clutch the neck of a sky-realm expert!
Mei fast enough faces her back and became dumbfounded as she sees the man that has the cultivation of the 5th stage sky-realm expert is struggling himself on the grasp of his customer.
An emperor expert?... Yes, no doubt about it, a sky-realm expert can do that!... She thought, paled. Remembered the event just while ago, making him wait on his order for just trivial matter. If he just unreasonable, they's might died before they knew it!
"Do you all have manner to be quiet when someone eating," Zero spoke, his overwhelming presence makes them hard to breathe as their cold sweating in despair.
Zero looked up, seeing the man struggles as he hopelessly continuously attacked his wrist in frenzy. Not caring what the outcomes of this, as he only cared what his lord order, he slowly snapped his neck as it's sound reverberate inside people's heart, scared of what he will do next.
"Be quiet" Zero eyes slowly swift through them one by one, making them pale their face. Like nothing happened, he continued his business, eating slowly his hot food.
Rooted on the ground, no one made any sounds, scared of pulling the attention of him. But with life and death situation the enemy group the one who made the first move as they escape like mice, running back to the clan.
Jin Ru Mei rooted numb foot move, seeing the enemy escape and give chase. "N!-" Before she can shout, she remembers the senior and immediately closes her mouth, looking over to him scared that he will be piss of what she made.
Zero acted that he didn't hear it as he only eats slowly.
Seeing the senior didn't heed her mistake, she gives chase quietly outside before bursting in high speed, securing that her footstep will not be heard inside.
With her chase, she made sure that he will kill them all in here, to eliminate some of her grand-parents have right now.
