Wudang: Legends Of Qi Earth 180 Darkness Falls Ix : Molock

To say Alex came prepared for a fight would be a gross understatement of his determined he felt right now. There was so much rage and anger boiling Within his bones that all that matters to him was ripping this old man apart without giving a talk about who or what gets in his way.

"Why?" Alex asked as he scrutinized the man in front of him.

"Why? Sorry kid, if you're looking for a reason to justify the fire and brimstone you came here to rain down on me, you wouldn't find it. For me it was just business, plain and simple. Sure it was a bit messy and not one of my best works, but still it's enough to get the message across. If you want revenge, I'll entertain you. But if you want to know who's responsible, then it's going to cost you quite a bit."

Their opponent wasn't young to say the least, he was quite aged, and heck he even looked older than Alex's grandfather. But even with his somewhat elderly disposition, it wouldn't stop anyone of them from taking his head off, but therein lays the problem; he was way out of their league.

He released a pressure that spoke volume of how strong he was the soul Dantian realm. A realm above the soul refining realm, and one that had significant enough power to wipe out every one of them with a thought, Alex knew he couldn't hold back for this fight. He might have been a bit brash, but it was too late to back out now.

"It's either you tell me who paid you, and I promise to make your death swift and painless, or I kill you and still wrong out the information from your cold dead corpse. Either way, it doesn't matter what you do or say, you're going to die." Alex said to him as his fire mask slowly spread across his face, however the mask's for scheme seemed different, with blackish red being the major theme, even the shape of the mask had changed to accommodate the power of the spirit Alex had called out to play, errrr excuse me, to kill?!

But Molock was not intimidate by this group of children, because in the end strictly speaking these were just kids in front of him, and as it stands he was about to greatly toy with them and their perception of the world. Molock rushed forward, his sword slicing in front of him; it was almost as if what he was cutting wasn't the air but rather the soul itself.

Which was the greatest talent of those within the earth gate, their cultivation became based on the soul, so their attacks always targeted the soul even when it seemed extremely physical. His target was Devonte, but thankfully even though not many people exactly what sort of cultivation Devonte had, the fairy cultivated Qi and spirit energy just like Alex. So he was pretty much prepared as he slashed his dagger upwards, a green beam of energy raised up as root shot out of the sky and attempted to skewer Molock.

However the old man had sharper senses than most as he twisted to the left, completely evading the strike from the root, but never the less his strike had already been redirected and gave Alex the time he needed to make an ultimate move.

There was a loud whoosh as the sky seemed to get darkened; Molock and everyone else looked up to see that a ma.s.sive cloud of black ash had completely blanketed their head. This was stage tow as the moment Molock looked up; Xiao Mei appeared in front of him and flicked an elegant long sword towards his neck. He deflected it, but it was in that moment there was a sharp flash at his side as Hideki showed up six meters behind Molock his katana outstretched.

 Blood spurted out of Molock's side as a cut so deep his ribs were exposed could be seen on his side. He was shocked, but every member of this tower was banking on his rapid surprise to deliver as much damage as possible. Ibrahim was next as what Molock experienced next was the sound of his eldest daughter calling after him; he was shocked and shaken as he knew his daughter had been missing for over thirty years leaving behind her infant son.

A sharp pain on his thigh brought him out of the illusion as he noticed a rather large and multicolored scorpion retrieving its stinger from his thigh. He felt dizzy, and then a ma.s.sive tower s.h.i.+eld with a giant cross emblazoned on it slammed into his face, releasing a surge of light that scalded his eyeb.a.l.l.s.

He closed his eyes, the poison from the scorpion getting stronger as he felt the urged to throw; the feeling of heat forced him to open his eyes as a young woman fell from the sky her fist on fire as she smashed it into his head.

He wasn't thrown backwards; she had slammed her fist into the side of his head, burning off all of the hair and skin on that side of his body. His body was turned sideways like a wheel as his head smashed into the ground creating a crater, rattling even more his already injured brain and aggravating internal Injuries formed within his body. Molock was old, even if he was in the soul Dantian realm. One very obvious problem was the fact that his true combat ability was a lot weaker than what he had shown.

To a team of cohesive and very talented fighters as this, they could toy with him from morning till night, and then from night till the morning without getting even a single speck of dirt on their body. And even worse was the fact that none of them were underestimating him, they knew how strong he was, and they were coming after him with the intent to kill.

They had all given him a hit and left him worse for wear, Molock got to his feet and looked up to the sky to see the cloud of black ash surging downwards and rus.h.i.+ng towards him in a spiral. It was like watching a typhoon of death and horror coming for him, and he barely had time to react as the hurricane of black ash swallowed his form. Alex had a blank look on his face; his gaze was resolute as the storm of hurricane of black ash ravaged the area where Molock had been standing.

This was the first time every member of the tower had fought together, with the exception of Khan who had just been watching; even the wraiths had played their part. And obviously they were all very dangerous, especially when they all had murder in their mind. The hurricane disappeared and what was left of Molock was exposed to the sun, he was still very much alive, however most of his body had already been ravaged by the black ash and with every second that pa.s.sed the poison was still spreading.

Alex walked towards him, the fire mask in his face slowly fading away as he came closer. The way he walked left Molock feeling chills, he really was on his knees, however he had his pride. He wouldn't beg for his life, he didn't even think he would be surviving this poison of fire that was rapidly spreading, though she was almost right, the pain was so much he wanted to beg. Death could not come any faster for him.

"You do not deserve the privilege of an honorable death, tell me old man; who the f.u.c.k hired you to kill members of my family. If you do so I might consider not looking whatever family you have left in this world and subjecting them to the same h.e.l.l you just went through." His eyes, those piercing black eyes weren't lying; he really was going to do it. And considering the resources of the wudang sect and Zhang clan he knew it wouldn't be hard at all for Alex to keep his words.

Maybe he was still under and illusion or the poison in his body was still affecting him, all Molock knew was that those eyes told no lie; Alexander Zhang Xiao Feng Ale was a man of his words.

Molock took a deep breath; he had taken this job as final score to get his family set for life, after this he wouldn't be killing anymore. And due to the nature of the job, the pay had been quite substantial, just as he knew the consequences would also be very great, after all there was no way he would have gone up against the Zhang clan and wudang sect without getting burned.

"Please no matter what you do, keep my family out of this, they're innocent. This kill wasn't so simple for me, I don't kill children, and even if I did, I would not have put their bodies up like that in such a grotesque display. It was just part of the instructions I was given.

The person who had put out the contract on their heads is or rather are actually two people, a young woman who goes by the name Lu Ming and is part of the imperial clan, and a young man called Walter Albion who's also a member of the empire of Albion's royal family.

But even they didn't have enough information to tell me where to find those children, not unless I went all over the forest looking for them, or waited for them in public to kill them, which would have pretty much left me exposed. This was an inside job, somebody from your tower fed Lu Ming and Walter information! There's a traitor in your camp!"
