122 Completely Surrounded (1/2)

As the sun set, vanishing behind the towering frosted mountains, an orange glow painted the sky, its colors dimming by the hour.

Through the cold winds and frosted grounds, it had been over five hours since An Sun left the An campgrounds. After traveling for so long, the young man remained tenacious. If he continued forward without any stops he'd arrive back to the others by nightfall.

While traveling, An Sun struggled to suppress the uncomfortable distress in his heart. When he returned, he would need to inform them of his father's orders.

The night before, An Sun had stayed awake the majority of the night, thinking of a solution to the sudden dilemma he was faced with.

To keep his father and the rest of the clan's trust, he would need to kill Duyi Zhong. An Sun's brows creased, the displeasure that he felt within made his gaze grow darker and his hands tightened into fists.

It was the only way to ensure his plans succeeded…

Bzz…

An Sun's eyes narrowed dangerously and a sharp glint flashed by his deep gray eyes. Pulling on the reins of his horse, An Sun suddenly moved to the side, a faint and sharp coldness shooting past where he originally stood.

An icy storm brew in his eyes as his gaze turned in the direction of the sudden attacker.

Who was it that dare shoot at him?

The attacker hid within the trees, concealing their presence, but he could sense there was more than one. Someone must have sent them to kill him while his defenses were down.

An Sun hadn't needed to think twice before a certain figure appeared in his mind. An Sun's lips curled up slightly, his smile bore a trace of disdain.

Damn it, he should have known. To leave so easily without any mishaps, he had miscalculated the An Clan member's resentment toward him.

Another arrow shot in his direction and An Sun was quick to evade by jumping off his horse which avoided the arrow in a frenzy.

Landing on the frosty ground, An Sun raised his gaze and was met with a group of men in black armor rushing toward him, swords in their hands.

He was completely surrounded by them.

An Sun sneered. Pulling out his sword from his side, he didn't wait for them to approach as he assailed forward, confronting them head-on.

The first man to advance his way was immediately slaughtered, his iron sword cutting through his armor, into his flesh and bone as fresh blood sprayed onto the white terrain.

Seeing one of their men killed, the rest proceeded to attack without hesitation. As countless armored men rushed at him at a violent speed, An Sun's eyes hidden behind his silver overflowed with bloodlust.

More men continued to swarm around him but the young man remained standing, both his sword and silver armor had long been dyed red with blood.

The formerly white and pure grounds were covered in crimson liquid, the stench of blood permeated the air. The smell only seemed to arouse An Sun's bloodthirst as he severed through flesh and bones swiftly.

It was a full-on massacre!

”Kuaahhh!” Deafening cries of agony resounded all around the mountain path.

An Sun's advances were swift and smooth as he annihilated them off one by one. The man was an uncontrollable beast!
