Awakening of the Ancient: Rise of the Fallen

"Hahaha, Good Kid. You seem like a sensible person," Mai smilingly said to Xu Ming.

"Girl, you should listen to your little brother. Come with us. Let's go," He said smilingly.

Xin just looked at Xu Ming with a confused look on her face, but she nodded her head as she saw the carefree look on his face.

"I'd come with you," She said.

"Good! Walk ahead. We'll tell you the directions from behind if you're confused," Mai told her.

She and Xu Ming started walking towards the rooms. Mai and Ruu followed behind them and kept an eye on them.

"Hey, Why did you have to bring that guy with us as well! All we needed was that girl. You know that our boss won't actually be talking right?" Ruu stepped closer to Mai and whispered in his ears.

"Hahaha, Of course, I know that he isn't needed, but I didn't want the girl to create a commotion. To make her believe about the chat thing and inviting her friend might have given her some faith," Mai replied smilingly.

"As for the boy, we can just kill him when we're inside the room. It wouldn't matter how much commotion she creates when we're inside," He said with a grin on his face.

"Indeed, That seems to be true. I guess you really did use your brain. Everything was handled so brilliantly," Ruu complimented Mai.

"Hahaha, Yeah. I realized that it would be easier to use the brain than using strength here," Mai replied.

"Turn left from here," Mai informed Xin as they got near an intersection.

Xin turned left and continued walking.

"Stop there. That's the room," Mai again said just as Xin and Xu Ming got near the room no. 3.

Mai walked ahead and knocked on the door.

"It's open. You can come inside," A voice came from inside.

Mai opened the door and looked at Xin.

"Get inside," He said.

Xin was still somewhat hesitating.

Xu Ming held her hand. Xin felt more comfortable as she took her first step inside the room. Xu Ming entered with her.

Mai and Ruu enter after them.

"You've finally come to me," Chu said with a smirk as he looked at Xin, but immediately after that, he noticed Xu Ming.

A frown appeared on his face.

"What the fuck is that boy doing here? Didn't you guys understand what I said? Or are you thinking that I don't differentiate between guys and girls!" Chu stood up furiously as he scolded Mai and Ruu.

"Calm down brother Chu. Let us explain. This kid is the little brother of the girl. To bring the girl here without causing a commotion, we had to bring her brother as well," Mai explained.

Xin heard his words and all color disappeared from her face as she looked at Xu Ming.

Xu Ming could see the worried on her face, he held her hand even tightly as he gave her a soothing smile.

"You don't need to do that. He's her brother after all," Chu responded.

"Kid, just get out of my room. Let me have some fun with your sister and I'll release her as well. There's no need to make things more difficult for yourself," He said to Xu Ming.

"I've seen evil of different types, but it's the first time I'm seeing something like this. You do deserve to die," Xu Ming said softly.

"What the hell did you just say?" Chu asked with anger clear on his face.

"Looks like you want to die here. Fine, let's fulfill your wish. Mai, Ruu kill that kid and take care of his body," The crimson-haired boy ordered.

"We would love to, brother Chu," Ruu smilingly said as he moved his hand towards his sword, but before he could touch his sword, everything turned dark below his eyes.

He didn't even realize what happened as his head war separated from his body and fell to the ground.

Even Mai couldn't react fast enough. All he saw was a sword appearing in Xu Ming's hands out of nowhere, using which he killed Ruu.

"You bastard!" Ruu raised his sword and attacked Xu Ming without wasting any time. His sword clashed with the sword of Xu Ming and instead of pushing Xu mind backward, he was the one that was pushed back 5 steps.

Xu Ming didn't stop as another sword appeared in his left hand which he stabbed in the chest of Mai.

"Urghh" Mai's eyes opened wide as the sword penetrated his heart.

He coughed out a mouthful of blood as his body started shaking.

Xu Ming pulled the sword back and Mai fell down to the ground.

His vision turned dark as his breathing stopped.

"Hmm? Interesting. I didn't expect that a cultivator like you would be inside a small clan like the Ling Clan. You even have a Spatial storage item. I guess the Ling Clan was really hiding their strength," Chu said smiling.

"I killed the 2 I needed, but I wouldn't mind going overboard this one time," Xu Ming muttered as he looked at Chu.

"Hahaha,Kid. Don't act arrogant. I'm not a weakling like those two. I'm a peak Body Refining Realm expert. I can kill you in an instant. Also, do you think you can harm me? If my body got even a single scratch, my brother will destroy your whole clan," Chu replied to Xu Ming.

He didn't look the least bit worried as if he didn't consider Xu Ming to be a threat.

"Should I really care? No one would even find out," Xu Ming said to him.

"Don't make me pick up my sword, kid. Be a good boy and cut your hands off yourself. I'd let you live. I'll only count to 3," Chu said as he glared at Xu Ming.

"Huh," 

"1... 2... " Chu started counting, but Xu Ming didn't even wait for the count to get to 3 as he used his Origin Movement and ran towards Chu.

"You bastard!" Chu hurriedly picked up his sword and sliced towards Xu Ming.

Both their swords met as sparks flew off everywhere, but Xu Ming had another sword that he used to attack Chu.

Chu caught the sword with his bare hands. His hands were bleeding, but he didn't let the pain show on his face.

"It won't work on me. I've already seen your tricks!" Chu said as he kicked Xu Ming's chest.

Xu Ming was hit as he flew back and crashed on the ground.

Chu used his movement skill as he instantly appeared near Xu Ming and thrust his sword towards Xu Ming's chest.
