Awakening of the Ancient: Rise of the Fallen

Win Gu didn't even knock on the door and simply kicked the door open as he barged inside.

A couple was spending some time together on the bed. The boy was on top of the girl and his back was facing the door.

It seemed as if Win Gu used his super-speed as he instantly appeared behind the man.

Before the boy could even react, Win Gu caught him by his neck and threw him back towards the wall.

The girl was completely exposed, but she didn't care at the moment and just ran out of the room without even taking her clothes.

"How dare you to not return to the sect and spend your time here?" Win Gu said as he turned back and looked towards the boy behind him that was groaning in pain.

"Who the heck are you?" He let out in surprise as he saw the face of the boy for the first time.

"Ah, Senior Forgive me! I was a bastard to come here. I'll never come here in the future, I promise," The boy replied with tears in his eyes. He thought that the sect had sent someone to punish him for his behavior.

"Cheh, Looks like he's not here," Win Gu muttered as he left the room.

He left the place without even waiting for a second.

He climbed on his flying beast and straight away flew to the Fragrance Court and landed in front of the gates and entered the place.

He walked to the reception as he observed all the people that were sitting there. He didn't find his little brother there.

Before Win Gu could talk to the receptionist, a man walked up to him.

"Senior Gu? What are you doing here? I thought that you never left the sect," The man asked.

"Situ Min, Do I need to talk to you whenever I have to leave the sect?" Win Gu glared at the man and asked.

"Not at all. I'm not worthy to even hold a candle to Senior Gu. It's just that my Situ Family owns this place. I was just surprised to see you here," Situ Min said with a fawning smile.

He looked towards the receptionist and ordered her.

"You, everything in this place is free for Senior. You understand?" He commanded the girl.

"Yes, Young Master," The receptionist nodded her head.

"There's no need. I'm here to look for my brother," Win Gu said as he brought a portrait of his brother out.

"Have you seen this kid? He must have come here," Win Gu inquired as he intimidatingly glared at the receptionist.

"He? Yes. He did come here. In fact, he booked a room here. I don't think I've seen him leave yet," The girl replied.

"Take me to the room," Win Gu said. The girl glanced at Situ Min for further orders.

"It's alright. Just tell me the room number. I'll take Senior Gu there myself,"  Situ Min told her.

"It's Room no. 3," She told him.

"Come with me, Senior. I'll take you to the room," He said as he glanced at Win Gu.

Win Gu followed him and soon, they reached the room.

"Just wait here. I'll be right back with the master key," He said after he knocked three more times, but to no avail.

Win Gu's face twitched as he placed his hand on Situ Ming's shoulders and moved him to the side.

He kicked the door open and entered inside.

"Wha..." Win Gu's face lost all its color as he saw blood on the ground after entering the room. He started getting worried about the safety of his brother and started looking everywhere, but not a single hint of his brother was found.

He walked back to Situ Min who was also standing there in a daze.

He grabbed Situ Min by his neck and raised him in the air.

"Where is my brother!" He bellowed as he tightened his grip around the neck of Situ Min.

"I... urgh... Can't... breathe," Situ Min let out after much struggle.

Win Gu threw Situ Min away who crashed on a wall.

"I need answers! Tell me where my brother is!" He roared again as he glared at Situ Min.

"I'll get you your answers. Give me just 10 minutes," Situ Min said as he stood up.

He walked towards the reception and Win Gu followed him.

"Mimi, Tell me. Did you really not see the guy in the painting leave?" He asked the receptionist.

"Yes, Master. I did see him enter the room though. A few moments later, Mr. Mai and Mr. Ruu entered the room with a girl and a boy as well. The girl and the boy came out and left whereas the other 3 didn't," She replied.

The girl knew Mai and Ruu's names as they were regulars here.

"Senior Gu, I'm 100 percent sure that the boy and the girl are involved in your brother going missing," Situ Min looked back at Win Gu and told him in full confidence.

"Do you know who that boy and the girl were?" Win Gu asked the girl.

"I'm sorry, but it was my first time seeing them," The receptionist said apologetically.

"You're coming with me to the sect. I need you to help in the portrait making of those 2! Once I get the portraits of those 2, I'll find them even if they're hiding in the depths of hell and get my brother back from them!" Win Gu let out as he walked up to the girl and picked her up in his arms before he left the place with her.

While the Xiayi Kingdom was about to be thrown into turmoil because of him, Xu Ming had no idea about it.

He was sitting behind Zi Zhenfeng waiting to get to the sect.

"Oh right, I forgot to ask. What was your mission?" Zi Zhenfeng inquired abruptly.

"It was to kill 2 disciples of the Glorious Sword Sect in the Xiayi Kingdom," Xu Ming inquired.

"Isn't that their turf? Such a fun mission. So did you complete the mission?" He asked again.

"Yeah, I went a little overboard and killed 3," Xu Ming replied.

"Oh, Nice! Looks like you enjoy fighting as well," Zi Zhenfeng said smiling.

Some more time passed and Xu Ming was finally able to see the Sect.

He couldn't help but breathe in relief as he saw the sect. He didn't know what he would have done if he wasn't able to find the sect.

They entered the sect and landed in front of the mission hall.

They both entered the Mission Hall together, though their mission was separated by their levels, so they had to enter separate rooms to register their results.
