Assassination System

Chapter 108 Demonic Dragon Group





"Are you sure that they\'re here, Senior Brother?" A male disciple said in a hushed tone, his eyes stared at the distant cave.


"Yeah, they\'re definitely here...Elder Daquan\'s information couldn\'t possibly be false..." A male disciple referred to as the former as Senior Brother nodded his head before turning around and signaling with his hands. Seeing his signal, the other members of his group tensed up.


They gripped their weapons and defensive talismans.


Their mission this time was to annihilate a bandit group called the Demonic Dragon Group. The group was considered as a huge tumor that repeatedly terrorizes passing caravans and those living near the borders of the Forest.


One of their targets, Captain Demonic Dragon was a Peak Spirit Tempering Realm practitioner. Most of the disciple\'s cultivation was only at the Organ Tempering Realm with a handful at the Spirit Tempering Realm. However, this time, they have their Senior Brother Kwydin.


Senior Brother Kwydin was someone that could jump realms to defeat his enemy. He could even defeat normal Divine Soul Cultivators at the initial stage so defeating someone with the same cultivation could be considered as an easy job.


It was currently at the peak of midnight and visibility was reduced for both parties. Cold winds constantly swept past their bodies as the most of them held their breaths. Senior Brother Kwydin unsheathed his jade sword, slicing at the direction of a sentry, blood splashed on the ground as another disciple leaped from the side. Preventing the corpse of the sentry from making any noise.


Tranquility returned and the group of disciples moved in an orderly fashion. Without making any waste and noise, they silently approached the entrance of the cave after dealing with the five sentries posted near the entrance. Senior Brother Kwydin found that the cave had numerous pathways inside and was like a labyrinth.


"We won\'t be going in! Those bastards actually tunneled several pathways that intersect each other, some even lead to a dead end and some are full of traps! We\'ll just wait for them here..." Kwydin dished out his orders and the surrounding disciples spread out, forming a half-circle formation which covered all possible exits.


Senior Brother Kwydin gripped defensive talisman on his hands. His expression looked somewhat grim as an ominous premonition appeared in his mind. Ever since they arrived near the base of these bandits, he found that everything that they did, successfully went through without any hitch.


Did they become careless just because there\'s no one that could deal with them? He thought to himself but soon dismissed the idea. One of the reasons why such a bandit group could survive through waves of attacks from different sects was due to the fact that they had a shrewd and powerful leader. It was impossible for them to make such an amateur mistake.


The conflicting thoughts inside his mind made him knit his eyebrows in a frown.


Suddenly, a burst of resplendent lights exploded in the skies. Voices of panic among the disciples echoed out as Senior Brother Kwydin\'s expression flickered, "Shit, we got caught in their trap!" He viciously cursed as all of them activated their defensive talisman.


The resplendent light that exploded in the skies didn\'t descend upon their figures. Instead, it floated in the air and formed a dome that enclosed all of them inside. "A Trap-type formation?" Kwydin mumbled before saying, "It\'s not an offensive type formation, withdraw all your barriers, we can\'t carelessly use our Spiritual Qi!" With his orders, the disciple stopped their barriers and glanced around them.


Shadowy figures of the bandits appeared before their line of sight. However, most of them only had the cultivation of the Flesh Tempering Realm which relieved the apprehensive disciples.


"To think that they just sent a bunch of garbages towards us, these bastards really are mocking us..." A male disciple commented, but Senior Brother Kwydin\'s expression turned solemn. Judging from the light of anticipation on the faces of the bandits and their unperturbed appearance. He could deduce that they felt quite confident about their plan.


"Hmmm, just look at these bunch of youngsters, it seems like they came from that despicable Academy...What should we do, boss?" One of the bandits glanced at a tall and bulky figure. His expression revealed his respect and admiration towards the person before him.


"A tattoo of a jet-black horned dragon, could it be that you\'re that Captain Demonic Dragon?" A female disciple cried out and her voice echoed loud and clear.


The man referred to as Boss by his subordinates revealed a small smile on his face, lifting his head, he stared at the female disciple who just spoke, his eyes shone in a light of lecherousness and desire, causing her to stiffen up and stagger backward in fear.


\'It seems like this one\'s reputation has been heard across the entire Empire of Eternal Faith..." He chuckled, "Since all of you brats knows about my reputation, you do know about the fates of those who offended me, right?"


The group of disciples glared at him as he chuckled, "Don\'t be so tense, in exchange for your freedom, I\'ll take five women from your group, some of my men didn\'t have the chance to taste a woman and I want them to graduate, can you help me with this problem?" His gaze swept over at Kwydin as the latter knitted his eyebrows.


"Do you really think that I would agree to your terms?" He coldly chuckled and Captain Demonic Dragon shook his head, "Remember that we are not negotiating, I have the higher ground so you go and learn your place..." His eyes flashed in a terrifying light. Kwydin clenched his fists. Judging from the fluctuations of energy from the barrier around them, it could trap Divine Soul Cultivators and someone like him who was just at the threshold of a Divine, he didn\'t have a chance of breaking it.


He discreetly took a jadeslip from his pocket and crushed it to dust. Informing the Academy of their current plight.


"How naive!" Captain Demonic Dragon noticed the stream of information that flew towards the skies, pointing his finger, a jet-black light chased after that stream of information and destroyed it.


Kwydin clicked his tongue and stopped his shenanigans. Staring at the distant Captain Demonic Dragon. He cupped his hands and said, "I cannot agree to Senior\'s first offer but I can offer you our Artifacts and Talismans as compensation as long as you take this barrier, off..."


Captain Demonic Dragon chuckled, "Nevermind, I already lost my interest..." He turned around and walked away with his subordinates. Leaving the trapped disciple behind.


"My second offer is ten women and all of your artifacts, if you can offer that much, I will let you go..." His vicious chuckle echoed throughout the entire Forest as most of the trapped disciples clenched their fists in hatred and anger.


"How dare he, how dare he do this to us? Does he really think that we can\'t destroy this measly barrier?" A male disciple scoffed before rotating his cultivation base.


Kwydin noticed his actions and said, "Don\'t even bother, that thing cannot be destroyed even if there are ten thousand of us..." He shook his head in dismay. The mission that was supposed to go as planned quickly turned into a horrifying situation.


"Then, what should we do here? Senior Brother?" The disciples spoke their concerns and Kwydin shrugged, only when he breaks through the realm of the Divine Soul Realm could he have a chance of breaking this transparent barrier. If not, they would definitely be captured and would have a fate worse than death.


"I can only try and make a breakthrough, only when I reach the realm of the Divine Soul could I have a chance of breaking that barrier..." He gave a small sigh. The barrier was a Heaven Grade Isolation Barrier, meaning one could only enter, but not exit.


The expression of the other disciples went grim. Breaking through the realm of the Divine Soul not only requires a huge Spiritual Qi reservoir, but also a certain level of understanding towards the laws of nature. Dealing with the first condition was already a challenge by itself, much less the second.


"It\'s okay, you can do that breakthrough, Senior Brother, we have all the time in the world anyway..." A male disciple chuckled at the side. Kwydin turned towards him and solemnly said, "Though I don\'t want to burst your bubble, with our food and water rations, we only have a week\'s time at most, or else we\'re all gonna starve to death..."


His declaration froze everyone as all of them started scavenging their bags for food. After calculating, they realized that they only had a week\'s worth of ration. They must escape or else they would face, certain death.


Sounds of supports echoed from the disciples and they tried their best in brightening up the mood. However, the despondent light within their eyes and their shivering movements indicated that they were very scared about the worst possible outcome.


Carrying the burden of his fellow disciple\'s lives. Kwydin calmed himself down and transformed into a cultivation demon, in the next seven days, he must make a breakthrough or else, all of them will die.


At the Demonic Dragon Group\'s side. A bandit glanced at Captain Demonic Dragon and said, "Was it really okay for us to let them relax? It would\'ve been better if we tormented them from the outside..."


Demonic Dragon leaked a small smile, "We\'re already tormenting them, even at this moment..." He said and that bandit leaked a smile of enlightenment, "I see, so Boss Dragon ordered some of us to go back there and torture them?"


Demonic Dragon shook his head, "No, but what they are facing right now is something that is worse than death..." A vicious light shone within his eyes. His lips lifted in a cruel smile as he inwardly thought, \'Just how long can all of you endure inside such a small cage..."
