Origin God

Not caring with them sensing me but with my guard up, I left the cave as my killing intent was released, because I haven't killed many bandits, the aura released is light red, being a weak one but I made sure that they could feel it for them to know that this will be a battle till death.

Expanding my senses in the surrounding area, I could feel that the Spirit Beasts were afraid of the heavy aura here, vaguely, I felt that there was someone in the tree that is in front of me and another behind a bush at my right side but I still think that there's around five people because of residual Spiritual Energy left by them, not sure, though.

Faking to let my guard down, I began to walk lazily, as if I'm tired, in a instant, a shadow could be seen by my eyes, rather, it was a dagger, stepping to the side, I picked it still in the air and before the assassin could be happy, I threw it back with great speed.

''Not good! I was found, damn!'' A hoarse voice was heard as a figure with black clothing and black mask covering his face appeared in front of me, the man then unsheathed a sword and ran in zig-zag towards me, he probably knew that I use bow, unfortunately for him, I also use swords.

One could hear sound of metal colliding as I blocked his attack with my sword and redirected it, the assassin immediately retreated some meters because he felt death, not wanting to waste time with this guy and also not wanting to play with such weak person, I began to use my full power, this guy is only Xiantian peak, something that even when I was at Xiantian 7-layer I could kill it almost easily.

I then ran towards him with a huge amount of speed, in the eyes of the assassin it seemed to be only a flash of light, shocked by my speed, he tried to retreat but to no avail as I was already in front of him, without hesitating, I slashed my sword to the side, cutting his head.

Suddenly, I heard four 'swooshs' coming in my direction, four males with black clothing and black masks attacked me at the same time, this enraged me, they sacrificed their comrade just to get a opportunity ''Despicable!''

''Brat, this is what you get from being naive'' The man that seemed to be their leader spoke with a mocking tone, thinking that he already won, however, I'm no weak prey.

Sound of flesh being cut was heard as a red line appeared in my stomach, luckily, I stepped back in time otherwise even with my cultivation and battle prowess being extremely high, death would be the only result, I covered myself with flames so that when I tried to block, smoke was created.

Covering my sword with a blue colored flame, I said ''Die!'', slashing my sword downwards, I cut one of the four assassins in half, he wasn't prepared to my sudden attack, thinking that I was dead.

''What? How are you alive? That's not possible!'' The assassin leader screamed, not wanting to believe this, from his behavior, I guess that he isn't a professional, probably someone of another clan that volunteered to kill me.

Retreating backwards, I held the bow in my hand as I infused Divine Energy on it, a fiery blue flame arrow was created 'Fiery Sun Bow Technique Fifth Style: Divine Blue Arrow' aiming it at one of the assassins, I released the arrow, the assassin in question tried to dodge but I had already predicted where he would escape, the arrow hit the assassin on his head as his dead body began to disintegrate because of the extreme heat.

The assassin leader finally seemed to be a bit angered because of this one death ''BASTARD! I will f*cking kill you!''

Again, he demonstrated that he isn't truly a assassin because of his behavior, a assassin never would let his emotions take control, easily dodging his pitiful attack, I made him unable to move even a centimeter by attacking vital points, the other assassin tried to ran away, unfortunately for him, I never would let someone go after trying to kill me.

''Who said that you can go, Mr. Assassin?'' I said to the man but at this time I smelled a stinky scent, looking down, I saw his pants drenched in a wet liquid.

''P-Please don't kill me, I can tell you everything!'' He pleaded but I showed not even a sign of sympathy as my sword was swung to the side, cutting his head.

With only me and the assassin leader, which I made unable to move left, I came near him and said ''Hello... now, care to tell me who sent you? Should I remove your mask and torture you? Oh... I see that you don't want to talk, right?'' saying this, I pointed my sword down and aimed it at his s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e part.

''NO! D-DON'T DO THIS!'' He immediately screamed, I guess that the best threat is this, at least I think like this, anyway, I then asked ''I will repeat... who sent you?''

I then removed the assassin mask and to my shock... he's someone from my own clan, his name is Kyo Ílio, a very strange name but anyway, he's one of the Grand Elder personal servants... does this means what I'm thinking? I hope not, the old dude don't seem to be a enemy.

The assassin leader said in a tone with extreme fear ''It was the Grand Elder that sent us, he wanted to kill you, this would give a blow to the patriarch heart, weakening him, making it easier to take over the position, see, I said everything, just don't do this, please, I beg you!''

Rage almost took over me, this old bastard, he dares to do this just because of a shitty position? If you want it so bad, I will make you have a special position at hell!

Still a bit enraged, I looked at the assassin and eased my expression, his eyes had hope but a vicious light passed through it 'Heh, in the end, you're just a naive kid, just wait... when I tell to the Grand Elder about your strange flame, he'll personally go after you'

I only gave him hope so that he could reveal his true nature, a servant can't show any signs of being displeased with his master even if the person in question is useless, even though this one is Grand Elder personal servant, as the patriarch son, not even the old bastard can order me.

Holding my sword tightly, I slashed it to the side, cutting the assassin leader head, then, a golden flame covered my hands as I said softly ''Burn them'' this is something that I learnt in the week strengthening my foundation, my flame at it's peak state is sentient, in my memories which my biological father, Zeus, put in my mind, only at a higher realm your flame would be intelligent and only the extremely powerful ones, in less than five seconds, their corpse were burned into ashes, at this time, I noticed that I just did a extremely dumb thing... I could have used them as evidence, enrage with myself, I released my killing intent.

The killing intent soared to the sky as I thought 'Grand Elder... prepare yourself because death itself is coming your way'
