A fight with Di Yi

After saying this Di Yi walked out of the pagoda with a smile. He had a scholarly look which made many people to look at him with awe. No one would think of him as the leader of the shadow guild. A person who has been terrorising the entire continent and held great power in many kingdoms and had many kings captive. It could be said that Di Yi represented the pinnacle of power in the continent and even the Qin state that was proclaimed to be the strongest kingdom also had to be wary of the shadow guild and were even controlled by it. Tie Hongchen stared at the figure but she did not stop her slaughter. The army closely followed behind Tie Hongchen and when they saw that the defenses had been breached they charged forward. Tie Hongchen stopped her massacre after seeing Di Yi staring at her. She used her sword to fly in the air and appeared before Di Yi. She stared at Di Yi with her red eyes not hiding her killing intent. She did not rebuke him nor did she try engaging him in a conversation rather she directly attacked. Di Yi took her attack head on and did not retreat. He simply threw a punch and met Tie Hongchen's palm. Tie Hongchen took three steps backwards while Di Yi stood in place. With this the disparity in their strength was obvious and it was proven that Di Yi was indeed unlike the golden emissary. He was much stronger than most people imagined. Tie Hongchen still had a bit of her consciousness left but after seeing the result of their prying of each other she no longer cared about anything else and decided to let loose no longer preserving her self consciousness. Her aura rose to a new level and her canines grew longer. She unsheathed her sword and attacked Di Yi with all of her strength. Di Yi was still relaxed and was very calm while facing Tie Hongchen. He has lived for long enough and had witnessed and experienced the vissitudes of life. He had seen the rise and fall of many empires as well as the rise of many heroes who overestimated themselves and thought that they could face the shadow guild. Although he hated to admit it, Di Yi had to admit that these two couples had indeed given him a huge surprise. Ten years is not too long for a gentleman to take revenge and these two were the perfect example of it. They bid their time and trained till they felt that they were now confident of fighting the shadow guild. "Haah," Di Yi could not help but let out a long sigh. After this fight it would take a long time for the shadow guild to return to their peak. At this time he stopped holding back and waved his hands. All the elites that were still hiding in the pagoda finally had their chance. Their auras were strong and they were the core of the shadow guild. Tie Hongchen's soldiers had a solemn expression as they stared at the elite army. Most of them laughed maniacally when they saw them and their blood couldn't help but boil. What was the hardest thing for a warrior? It was to find a worthy opponent who could put up a good fight so seeing worthy opponents that could put up a good fight made the blood of the soldiers boil and for a moment they couldn't hold back their excitement. This was a life and death trial for them and they were willing to trade their life for this moment of glory. They wanted to leave behind an impact. Di Yi saw this and sighed again. It was said that the longer one lived the more one cared about his life and this could be true as the elite soldiers of the shadow guild were slightly lacking in momentum. None of them were willing to give up their life after living for so long as they felt that it was not worth it. Di Yi knew this and had already expected such an outcome. Tai Jian also knew of this fact and he took advantage of this. The elites of the shadow guild have long been used to suppressing others and have long considered themselves immortals and although it was not wrong it had spoiled them as they thought they could handle any situation which led to the situation today as they have become too comfortable . Tie Hongchen took this chance when Di Yi was distracted and managed to leave a deep cut on his chest. Di Yi was not upset by this as this was his fault." It has been so long since someone managed to leave me with a slash. Since you are the first I will do you a favour and leave you with an intact body, " Di Yi said in a condescending tone as he finally took the initiative to attack. He did not use any weapon and just used his fists but even then Tie Hongchen could not handle him and was having problems fighting him. In a fee minutes the duo had already exchanged about a hundred moves and Tie Hongchen had no advantage and was at the back foot. Di Yi had yet to unsheathe his weapon even after so long so it could be seen that he did not take Tie Hongchen to be a worthy opponent. After about a thousand exchanges the duo both retreated. At this moment Tie Hongchen's clothes were in tatters and some parts of her snow white body was exposed but hse seemed to not care about this. There were many palm prints on her body and each of them had left her severely wounded. Blood was dripping from the corners of her lips but her aura showed no signs of weakening rather it grew stronger which could only mean that she was treating Di Yi as a whetstone so as to better control and adapt to her new found strength." Finally a good opponent. You are now worthy of my weapon," Di Yi said as a golden halberd appeared in his hands out of nowhere. Tie Hongchen clearly saw that the halberd had just been summoned from the pagoda. Di Yi's condition was slightly better than Tie Hongchen as apart from a few cuts he was fine. He had no severe injuries left on his body. It could be said that the real battle between the duo was about to begin and what followed next would be a fight of life and death. Tie Hongchen raised her sword and pointed at Di Yi. This was her declaration. She had waited for this moment for a very long time for this and was now ready to face the person responsible for her mother's condition. Tie Hongchen had already lost all awareness so Di Yi could no longer use the tactics that he had prepared before such as using the purple robed emissary. An intense round of fighting began with Di Yi taking the lead to attack. Di Yi's strength was fully demonstrated and Tie Hongchen had a hard time trying to keep up with Di Yi. She was still suppressed by Di Yi but as time went by she was able to keep up with him.
