The Other Side of A Cultivation Story

One half of the blazing sword brothers facing the Shu siblings and the black tiger instantly fell on the ground with blood spurting all over his dead body.

Mo Shui's eyes, as well as those of the two other Mo Clan disciples almost popped out from what they just witnessed.

They never imagined that the Shu siblings were that good. Mo Shui knew of Qai's strength but she couldn't believe the strength of the three of them combined.

The onslaught looked so masterly finesse that even a whole stage stronger enemy appeared helpless.

And to add insult to injury, Qai shamelessly took off the spatial ring from the finger of the dead body and threw it to his big sister. Shu Liang delightedly caught it and hurriedly wore the spatial ring--she finally had her own spatial ring.

The remaining half of the brothers felt chills from what he just saw. But after regaining his senses, he got enraged and went out of control.

He acted quickly towards Qai attempting to slash him with his Fire sword. But Mo Shui who saw it quickly charged with her 'Frozen Rush' followed by her 'Sword Mist.'

The two other Mo Clan disciples followed suit upon seeing their leader.

Hao Ren activated a skill called 'Gravity'--its target is pulled down on the ground making him or her unable to move for few seconds. Lin Qiao on the other hand unleashed her own 'Fireball.'

The Shu siblings and Shandian joined the fray and did their usual team attack.

In a few seconds the other half of the brothers also fell dead.

"Lin Qiao," Mo Shui called, "burn their corpses."

"Wait," Qai said. Again, he took the dead cultivator's spatial ring.. but this time he threw it off to Hao Ren.

Hao Ren caugt it but his face was beaming with mixed emotions. A part of his self-righteous self wanted to refuse it but another part of him was curious of what treasure could be inside.

"You don't have to feel embarrassed about it," Qai said. "Take whatever is inside and share them among yourselves.. I bet when we get inside the wasteland, people will greedily kill each other for the treasure.. so you should get used to it."

The Mo Clan members thought for a moment and realized that Qai obviously made sense.

"Okay, let's burn the corpse..," Mo Shui said, "..you'll never know if there are other members of their clan around."

***************

The Blazing Sword Brothers were from a clan called 'Blade Masters,' from Sun City.

It was a clan that did not have a core family but grew big out of recruitment of vagrant cultivators. That explained why members of such clan were ruthless as the clan were more like a mercenary guild than a clan.

Sun City was located some miles to the north of Jiang City with some towns and villages in between.

These two cities together with the villages and towns surrounding them were what comprised the region under the domain of the Purple Mist Sect.

The said region was actually the southeast portion of the continent and what was known among the vast cultivating world as the 'Stonecrest Region.'

***************

Lin Qiao did as she was told. She burned the corpse of the brothers and the four unknown experts that the brothers had slain.

After they cleaned up the mess, they took the Coriander stalks and immediately left the place and headed to some other place to train.

The team split the herbs in two--the Mo Clan and Shu family got each a stalk.

Qai insisted her sister that they should give their stalk to their brother to help him breakthrough the sage realm.

As for the one in Mo Clan's hands, Mo Shui would probably have it.

***************

Shu Liang dropped the spatial ring a tinge of her blood to own it.

And when she looked at what's inside. It had nothing but common class skill scrolls and few silvers and some profound grade pills--nothing worth celebrating, although the pills would be useful for her and Qai's level. But of course, the real gain in it was the spatial ring itself.

The team never met another cultivator enemy during the remaining days of their training.

Hao Ren, after the fight against the Blazing Sword Brothers, learned to respect the Shu siblings and learned to cooperate with them since then.

From then, the entire group devised a certain team formation for their attack and defense according to the strength of each member.
