Chapter 33: Might of a Prodigy!
Dayton stared at the group of people in front and did not turn his head around to look at the young man behind him.
His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the group of cultivators. The hands of all these people were stained with the blood of the innocent. They should all be killed!
The remaining group of people became pale. Although they had killed before, even to the point where the numbers were far beyond what normal cultivators were used to, right now, they couldn't help but tremble in front of this youth. The heart of the remaining cultivators tightened; they felt their back turn cold with sweat.
"Quick! Run!"
Everyone was frightened by the horrifying might displayed by the young man; this seemingly fragile youth had slayed their two best cultivators in a matter of seconds! Realizing that they might get killed, the fear of death sprouted in their hearts, and every single one rushed backward in panic.
Dayton smiled coldly in his heart, You think you can run?
Using his spiritual sense, he made a quick scan of the surroundings.
The corner of his mouth curled up as his body flashed forward with incredible speed, arriving at the front of one of the cultivators.
Seeing Dayton appear so suddenly, the cultivator was startled in his heart and his facial expression turned unsightly. Seeing as it only took the young man an instant to appear in front of him, despair enveloped his heart, and as a last attempt, the cultivator brandished his saber and leaped into the air, chopping towards Dayton's head. There was a resplendent saber light gathering on the blade of the saber.
He shouted angrily, "I will kill you!"
"With your measly strength? Haven't anyone taught you to only have realistic dreams?" Dayton leaned in hard, evading the attack, and turned his left hand backward, catching the guy's right wrist, and rotated it like a doorknob.
The guy screamed loudly, and he landed violently on the ground. After he landed, he vomited nine mouthfuls of blood continuously; his complexion was pale.
"Cloud Soaring Dragon Strike!" Dayton yelled out, as a surging rapier Qi gathered on his silver rapier, firing towards the fallen cultivator.
Furthermore, the angle of this strike which was fired was extremely tricky to deal with. Without a strong foothold, it would be extremely difficult for anyone to dodge this attack.
Hu Chi!
In the next instant, it had pierced through the cultivator's chest.
Everyone's jaw was open wide in disbelief. After a short moment, those cultivators recovered their wits. They turned pale with fright and shock filled their faces, and continued running.
Dayton had a calm expression on his face as he continued to walk forward.
"White Lightning Rapier Technique!" He took great strides as he shouted loudly. suddenly emitted countless arcs of lightning. The energy he had been building up was all used in his most violent technique.
BOOM!
After Dayton made his move, the sound of an explosion rang out and the number of cultivators that were uninjured were only three, as the bodies of the rest of the cultivators suddenly burst like balloons the moment the attack struck them. Their corpses were mutilated beyond recognition, scattered everywhere.
A large amount of blood flowed from the bodies, continuously. Amputated limbs and internal organs were scattered everywhere; it was extremely gory.
The cultivators who were lucky enough to escape the attack turned their heads around to check what Dayton had done to their comrades. When they did that, they became frightened and immediately increased their speed, rushing to get to safety.
"You shouldn't leave your pals behind, you know," After he spoke, cold air filled the place as a chill light flickered and the speed of the cultivators slowed significantly. However, Dayton's speed did not seem to be affected.
Dayton revealed a cold smile, as he took a step back with his right foot, grasped the rapier handle and applied force on it.
"Metal Burst!" The silver rapier, revealing a reserved light, rushed out like a beast that was unleashed. There was a loud melodious sound, and in an instant, numerous dazzling silver rapiers blossomed out. Along with the sound of rapiers appearing, a horrifying killing intent was extended out instantly and the group of cultivators felt their hearts go cold.
Pu Ci!
Miserable cries resounded. There were cries of pain from the cultivators before their deaths, as they were all sliced in half by the rapiers. The Metal Burst Technique was not in the least gaudy; it was very straightforward.
Dayton stood proudly, and his eyes were like a boundless starry sky. His clothes were completely stained with blood. The crimson blood was reminiscent of beautiful flowers, adding a strange beauty to his appearance.
He then turned his head and spoke to the young man behind him indifferently, "You should leave. This part of the forest isn't safe for a normal cultivator like you."
The young man, who was simply too surprised at what he had witnessed, did not seem to understand that Dayton was talking to him.
"Still not leaving? Are you trying to kill yourself? I thought you had a family to take care of," Dayton said sternly, his expression turning cold as he saw that the young man had not moved yet.
"Ah! I-I'm sorry, I'll leave right now! And thank you.. whoever you are," the young man said while stuttering before hurriedly turning around and dashing away.
Dayton watched as the young man slowly disappeared from his view, and his hair and clothes started fluttering around despite the absence of wind. His face was as smooth as jade; he looked extremely handsome. He then looked at the corpses lying on the ground, saying indifferently, "I guess the training did work out well."
He took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and relaxed after the short 'workout', before hurrying back to the Silver Moon Academy.
******************************
In a dark alley somewhere in Vercester City, the young man from before stood silently, looking around every now and then, as if he was waiting for someone to arrive.
"Did you do what I asked, Elffin?" A voice echoed in the young man's ears, and he turned around, startled. Behind him, stood a masked man wearing a cloak. The young man inhaled a deep breath of cold air. This man had an imposing aura surrounding him, making his heart tremble in fear.
"Ah! Yes sir, I did! Here's the list, as you ordered," the young man took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it over to the masked man, who read it carefully, revealing an expression of being deep in thought.
He said, "You did well. Here's the payment." The masked man then took out a pouch and threw it over to the young man, who caught it carefully, his eyes gleaming with delight.
The masked man watched the young man drool over a pouch filled with coins with indifference, and his gaze returned to the piece of paper in his hand.
