Chapter 30 - Die With Dignity

With faces filled with fear, Sword Four and Sword Five stared at Theia. Their bodies were shaking uncontrollably and they could not even muster up the courage to escape.

Escaping in front of someone who was possibly an 8th-rank Divine expert? That was easier said than done. There was a very high possibility that they will die before even taking half a step forward...

Theia was still hovering in midair like a celestial fairy in her translucent nightgown. Both Sword Four and Sword Five did not even dare to glance at her most sensitive parts. They can only stare at her otherworldly face with immense dread.

"Yo-Young lady, ple-please spare us! We we-were only fo-following orders from someone!" Sword Five cried in a stuttering voice.

Sword Four glared at his brother but he can’t really blame him. The pressure that Theia emitted was many times scarier than what Elder Ming can produce. "Fifth brother, are you going to betray the hands that fed you? All five of us had long since prepared ourselves for death. But we have to die with dignity!" Sword Four said through gritted teeth while clutching his right arm.

Sword Five sighed guiltily before his eyes flashed with a ferocious glint. "You are right, fourth brother..."

"Are you done talking?" Theia gently landed on the roof making her white nightgown flutter faintly.

Sword Four and Sword Five were sweating heavily as they grabbed their swords.

Since they were little kids, they were trained by Elder Ming with the way of the sword. All five of them were masters of the sword and it was also the reason why Elder Ming provided them with such names.

Sword Four tried to remove the fear in his heart as he wielded his sword with his left hand. He turned and did a backhand slash while aiming for Theia’s neck.

"Woosh!"

Theia remained standing with a cold expression on her face as she indifferently caught the sword with two fingers.

’What?!’ Sword Four’s eyes contracted in surprise and fear after seeing how Theia easily caught his sneak attack.

If one would look closely on Sword Four’s sword, they would see that it was slowly melting under Theia’s tight hold.

Sword Four released the hold on his sword after feeling a painful burning sensation.

"Clang!"

The unmelted half of his sword dropped on the roof with a dull clanging sound.

"Fourth brother, you go escape to the-" Before Sword Five could even utter the remaining words, his head was already separated out of his body. He even caught a glimpse of his own headless body before his vision darkened for eternity.

"Thud!"

A dull thud echoed faintly as Sword Five’s headless corpse dropped on the ground. Blood flowed from his neck ceaselessly, but strangely, the roof remained untainted. It seemed to have absorbed Sword Five’s blood.

As a sacred heavenly wood, the Sacred Sanctum Safarwood was capable of vanquishing evil and impurity. A low-level mortal’s blood isn’t even qualified to taint its body. Only the blood of an evil god was able to blemish it, but of course, the Sacred Sanctum Safarwood was also capable of cleansing it.

Sword Four froze in place after seeing the death of his brother. He was overcome by grief as he kneeled on the ground with a blank look. "Kill me..." He said with a faint smile on his face.

Theia did a swiping motion with her right arm causing an invisible wind blade to cut Sword Four’s neck.

A glob of tear dropped from his blank eyes as his decapitated head was thrown in midair. There was still a faint smile on his face even after he died.

"You have great potential, but you served the wrong master." Theia muttered to herself in a cold voice before producing two small sparks of flames. It then gently landed on the corpse as flames slowly spread all over their bodies. In less than ten seconds, only a handful of ashes remained before it was scattered away by a cold night breeze.

Theia glanced at their heads for a brief moment before she burnt it. She planned to bring them to Jiu Shen but changed her mind as it may disgust him. She knew that her master did not care one bit about their deaths. No matter what their backgrounds were, her master would still remain unmoved.

With a tapped of her foot, she landed in front of Jiu Shen’s window and gently knocked. "Knock! Knock! Knock!"

The window opened slowly, revealing a cold but handsome face. With a long silver hair tied in a ponytail, Jiu Shen glanced at Theia with an expressionless face. "Come inside."

Theia gracefully came inside his room with all sorts of thoughts inside her head. She tried to remain as calm as possible to avoid making her master in misunderstanding her. "Master, do you want me to trace their origins?" She asked after bowing her head respectfully. Her cleavage came into view revealing a flawlessly white skin.

Jiu Shen glanced at her aloofly after he took a seat. "If I’m not wrong, those people should be sent by that fatty earlier. He also mentioned something about the Xue Family wanting to do business with me, but I declined their offer. You don’t need to trouble yourself with this minor matter. Just go back to your room to have rest."

As a heavenly god who had live for countless eons, he already knew the minds and the hearts of humans. He had experienced countless similar things in his past life that it did not need much thinking from him to know who the true perpetrator was.

Theia felt disappointed for some reason, but she still bowed her head respectfully. "As you say, master."

"Woosh!"

She disappeared from Jiu Shen’s room in a blink of an eye.

"Even a mortal world has people who are full of schemes and cunningness. Perhaps it’s just human nature..." Jiu Shen muttered to himself while looking at the night sky with a nostalgic look.
