Assassin sect:

Next day.

Xiao Lin who saw the sun rising from the horizon cleaned himself and picked his backpack for his journey. He had breakfast at the inn.

He prepared to go to the assassin sect in the early morning for his advantage by attacking them in unexpected situations.

Xiao Lin reached the gate of the assassin sect in the early morning.

As assassin sects are known for their killing skills, Xiao Lin decided to be careful with them.

"As assassins are made only to kill, I can't expect to play by the rule. Only the strong will live in this world."

"I think I should start the killing in the morning. Which will be an advantage for me against them."

"But I will let them know what goes around, comes around. They should know if they used the sword for killing other. Someone one will do the same for him."

Xiao Lin's eyes and ears are noticing any moments in his surroundings. Lin can hear or see even a small moment around him.

"My senses seem to be more accurate than before. Maybe I have attained the true potential of my body. This world is very wide. There will always be someone stronger than me."

"For me to unleash my true potential and broke the limits. This revenge will help me attain that."

Xiao Lin made up his mind to be vigilant. He must be cautious and should avoid unnecessary troubles.

....

While inside the gate of the Assassin sect. Zhao Lu was sweeping the floor in a proper manner while thinking about something.

"This year was so hard for me. But I have to face hardness for my revenge against this sect. They killed my family. I destroy them one day. I have heard two groups of assassins went missing when they went for a mission. That is so good for them. They must have offended someone they shouldn't and got killed. That is the only reason I can find about their sudden missing cause. I should steal some martial arts of the assassin sect to learn secretly. But once found it will be big trouble for me. He will drive out of the assassin sect or even get killed. But I will do some idiotic think. This is the place of a great martial artist after all. I will act as a loyal person but will backstab them when I get the chance. In addition to that if I want to live peacefully in this world strength is necessary."

"For others, it may be a place of learning, but for me, it is a place of corruption with the blood of innocents in their hands."

"I have to sweep the floor and other works for another 3 years to be accepted as their disciple. I have waited for 4 years and will wait for another 3 years to start learning. Even if it takes my entire life to achieve my goal, I will do it."

"Where can I find such chance? I strive for revenge for my family. My parent's souls achieve satisfaction after I kill this killer."

When Zhao Lu went to study in the capital, Zhao Lu received a letter from his family and learned that when this letter reaches his hand, they would be already dead. His parents were happy that I was safe.

During that period Zhao Lu wanted to go and kill the sect that killed his innocent parents. But reality didn't allow him to achieve his goal. As he is a weak normal person.

"Except for some restricted places, I can visit other areas to observe the training of the disciples. But I can only learn limited things from observing their practice. I have reached my limitation long ago."

After cleaning he walked towards the kitchen only to see there is no water for cooking.

"Shit, I forgot to fill the water from the river outside the sect."

Zhao Lu with his buckets ran towards the carriage and moved towards the sect gate. He has to go out of the gate to get water.

Zhao Lu saw a man, with a sword in his hip standing there watching the mountain of the assassin sect.

Zhao Lu – Who are you? You shouldn't be here. If they saw you here, they will kill you.

Xiao Lin – Then, what are you doing here?

Zhao Lu – What can I do? Trying to get into the sect for my goal.

Xiao Lin found the hatred of Zhao Lu well hidden in his heart when he spoke about his goal. Xiao Lin smiled.

Xiao Lin – You seem to have some work to do. Finish that first. I will leave before you return.

Zhao Lin – Oh, okay. Bye.

Zhao Lu was relieved and moved towards the river for water. Unknown to him he also crossed death today.

While Lin moved towards the assassin sect step by step. Lin slowly walked towards the main area of the sect.

A disciple saw Lin wearing clothes different from his sect.

"Who are you? You should…"

Lin didn't even give him time to complete his speech. Lin slashed his katana and half-moon-shaped light struck him, which beheaded him without mercy.

Seeing this other disciple started to attack Lin. But there was no change in Lin's face. Lin's sword started to slash at a faster pace leaving creating an illusion of thousand swords. He killed them all while walking at a slow pace.

Blood started flowing in the path he walked.

Whenever he saw anyone on his way they will be killed by his swords without mercy. This caused a commotion inside the sect.

The elders who heard this news were shocked to hear this. Who has the heart to enter their alone and started killing them?

The elders moved towards the direction Lin was coming to stop him or kill him.

When they reached, they saw the dead bodies of sect disciples, and center stood a man with clean white clothes which were not stained by blood with a katana in his right hand.

Sect leader – What are doing? Do you think you can leave after killing our disciples? Your death will be today.

Lin disappeared and appeared near the sect elder. He slashed his swords severing his two hands. While other elders who saw these scenes started attacking Lin.

But they were no match for Lin's sword one by one got killed. Finally, the patriarch of the sect appeared and supported the elders against Lin.

Lin for the first time felt pressured by the people stronger than him. He even got injuries caused by them. Blood was flowing out from the wounds. He knows raising his strength, skill to another level only can help him achieve his revenge.

The hardest thing for Lin was the attack from their assassin skills. Appearing out of darkareas and stabbing him back.

Lin who was pressured by them retreated and ran towards the sect leader.

"Patriarch" the sect leader who was injured by Lin wanted to ask. But before he could say anything Lin killed him.

Sect members who saw the death of the sect leader were mad, moved towards Lin, and attacked him. Lin used the disrupt weakness in their skills when they were mad to his advantage. He took the advantage to injure the remaining elders and patriarch severely.

Xiao Lin also got slashed in his stomach, back and hands. But still stood against them. One by one he killed the elders.

Patriarch was watching this, but he can't do anything because Lin has injured his joints during the last attack.

Xiao Lin looked towards the patriarch of the Su family and assassin sect.

For Lin speaking during the fight is unnecessary and it wastes time. But they need to know the reason for their destruction.

Lin moved near the patriarch and inserted the katana into his abdomen.

Su Lu – Why are you doing this? This offends the entire empire including the emperor.

Xiao Lin – You should now know the pain my wife felt in her last moments. You shouldn't have killed her. You gave her pain. I gave you pain. You killed my family in front of me, I destroyed your sect in front of you. Now you die after knowing the reason. My revenge is just starting. Haha ha ha ha.

Xiao Lin slashed the katana separating the patriarch's head from his body.

Xiao Lin – The empire's destruction is my final goal, to begin with. Do you think I will be afraid of them?

System: Host do you want to sign in.

Xiao Lin – Sign-in.

System: Sign-in reward the blood controlling technique.

Additional incident reward bonus: Assassination experience of 100 years.

Xiao Lin was surprised to hear that. The blood control technique is very useful for him as he is still losing a lot of blood after the fight.

Blood stopped flowing out of his body. Xiao Lin was also happy to obtain the experience of an assassin which will be an advantage for him against his enemies.

Xiao after confirming everyone was dead, walked towards the gate and turned back.

Xiao Lin – This will the mark of my vengeance.

Xiao Lin moved towards the river to wash his wounds while cleaning the bloodstains in his body. But he decided to walk through the forest for a short time of travel. He took back the backpack he hidden near the gate.

Xiao Lin reached the river after 20 minutes, which will take around 30-35 minutes through the road.
