《Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King》Chapter 14 - Plunging To His Death
Advertisement
He then packed power into one of his leg and swung that leg towards the back of Xiao Lin's head, who at the moment, had an intense struggle in his eyes to leave the presence of these guys.
Bang!
Like an arrow furiously fired from a bow, Xiao Lin was launched straight into the air and into the distance where he landed twelve feet away.
When he landed with his head first, smashing his jaw right into the ground, it became heavily bruised with some of this teeth splintering and blood oozing out from his wounded lips.
Also, a really bad headache started to afflict him. And it was so intense that it seemed like someone was using a small-sized rock to continually smash him on the head with all the strength that the person could possibly muster.
With sorrow, agony and rage in his heart, Xiao Lin prevented himself from fainting.
All that was in his heart was to escape from these people. But he knew that it was going to be really hard, since his knee bones have dislocated. He wouldn't be able to stand to his feet and run off with all the strength that he could muster.
Although he knew that escaping from these people was totally impossible since they were cultivators and would have studied Movement Techniques, he however pushed on with a strongly burning hope in his heart that he was going to escape from them, and through any means possible. And he hoped that the heavens would make what he hoped in his heart a reality.
As he crawled on his chest like a worm, albeit really slowly, Zhang Feng and the others arrived behind Xiao Lin at their own leisure pace and with fierce smiles hanging on their lips.
But as Xiao Lin only ignored them and continued to crawl to get away from them, Zhang Feng and some of the others who had appeared behind him began to walk by his sides like they were escorting him. Then as they did so, they began to do all sort of unspeakable things to him to make Xiao Lin feel really humiliated.

They climbed atop him, spat on him, urinated on him, kicked him hard on the head which caused the intensity of the headache that he was currently enduring to increase to another level.
As they did all these horrendous things Xiao Lin, the solid resolve in his heart began to grow weak. It actually began to waver.
And this was because he knew that he wouldn't be able to escape from these boys, they were simply going to kill him with the way things were going.
At the moment, his vision had become blurry. He couldn't even see where he was slowly crawling on his chest to. Also, his ears couldn't pick up any sound again. Those really hard strikes to his ears since Zhang Feng and the others kicked his head with immense heaviness, had badly affected his two eardrums, possibly ruining them.
Then as for the bones of his chest. Many of them had broken while some had developed numerous cracks in their structure and could probably scatter apart in the next moment.
Same went with the other bones of his body. Due to the numerous hard impacts of his body with the ground, many of them had broken with some having lots of cracks in their structure, giving the feeling that they would scatter apart in the next moment too.
When Xiao Lin who had an unmatched struggling and enduring expression in his eyes, figured out some moments later that his body's condition was really worst, and that it wouldn't allow him to escape from these boys who were simply out to insanely torture and terribly humiliate him to his death, literally gave up with great forlornness in his eyes.
'I am sorry, mom. Your child became so useless that he wouldn't be able to come free you from his dad's hand.' Xiao Lin said inwardly and then paused when an intense, really acute ache suddenly struck his head and ears, causing him to groan loud in misery.
Then as the pain grew stronger in intensity, Xiao Lin tried to endure it sufferingly and then resumed what he was saying within himself.

'I have only been living in my fantasies all these while, thinking that I could become something which I should have known that it wouldn't truly come to pass. But now, I have understood that all the resolves that I made then, were simply nothing but daydreams. I hope the heavens will not turn a blind eye to your situation and find a way to set you free from my dad's callous hand.'
Xiao Lin said all that inwardly and then actually stopped crawling, surrendering himself to the miserable fate that had fallen on him.
Seeing that Xiao Lin had stopped, Zhang Feng and the others burst into a series of loud laughter.
"Hmm. You have quite the determination, Xiao Lin. I will give you that. Haha!!" Zhang Feng said with a wrinkled brow and then he and others bursted again into an unbridled laughter that was full of mockery.
"But hold that laughter, everyone. This fool can't die here. Let's take him to where he would jump to his death by himself. We surely don't want to have trouble disposing off his useless corpse" Zhang Feng said and grinned while the others nodded their heads agreeably.
Not long, since the building of their sect was located on the top of a mountain, they carelessly and happily dragged Xiao Lin's body on the ground to the edge of that mountain and then dropped him there.
Then Zhang Feng came over to where Xiao Lin's body was dragged to and suddenly kicked him hard in the jaw, causing many of this teeth to abruptly fly out of his mouth like actual projectiles.
Hahaha!
Zhang Feng laughed.
Then after grinning for sometime because of his action, he said with an intense coldness in his voice "It's over for you now. You can crawl with your broken bones to your death."
Xiao Lin who was trying his best to endure the great amounts of intense pain that racked his entire body and mind started to cry.
He had been holding back his tears for long. But now, he let it all out, since he would plummet to his doom very soon.
"M-Mom, forgive me for the action that I am about to take next. I-I don't have anything anymore to continue e-existing for. Although I still have you, there is definitely n-nothing that will bring me away from these things t-that want my death to come save you. I have simply lost the w-will to continue living. I-I am s-sorry mom" Xiao Lin said in a stuttering manner as tears unrestrainedly streamed down his eyes that was filled to the brim with sadness and sorrow.
"Alright. Go on now. Plunge to your death. And make sure that your ghost never returns. Or it will go through the same torture and humiliation that you passed through." Zhang Feng said while the others laughed without care.
Xiao Lin who had a deeply sorry and miserable look in his face, tried to crawl off the cliff that he was on to plummet to his death.
After a long moment of immense suffering and struggle with the exceedingly painful sensations that coursed through his entire body and clouded his senses, Xiao Lin raised himself with only his arms to push himself off the cliff.
And as soon as he did so, he saw to his horror how far the bottom of the cliff was.
However, despite the great horror and dread that suddenly surfaced in his heart, he surrendered himself to that bad fate that he spoke about and then pushed himself with his raised arms to make his body fall off the cliff and then plunge to the bottom where he would definitely explode into mist of blood upon crashing immensely hard into the solid earth that was hundreds of feet below.

Summon Imp!
Travel with a newly born demon as he grows and learns in his own world as well as in other worlds as he gets summoned again and again. Usually to die or kill for others in strange and exciting places, but it's never certain what the next one will bring. It has its perks. With each new world comes a new story with new experiences and new lessons. There is always more to see, more to learn and more to know. Maybe, someday, it will all make sense. For now he will just work hard to become stronger, to be useful and, hopefully, survive that way. A coming-of-age story, but different. Things start to slow down to a crawl. Colors blur into one another until my vision is completely white. All I can think is "Shit, not this again!" I hate being summoned. _________________________________ updates once a week until I get more time The idea for this story began in two places. One was the ridiculously rapid pace of gaining power in many novels. Both in games and in novels, I enjoy the struggle of the beginning character, why always the rush? The other was the way many monster or non-human MCs always seem to hurry to become human (again). It always felt like a cheap way to grant the character extra powers without the difficulty of writing a non-standard thought process. Thus I wanted to write the slow(ish) progression of a monster character gaining strength and intelligence, while remaining distinctly non-human. There are no stats, xp or systems, no reincarnated soul or completely formed being to start with - unless I want to make fun of those. While the MC 'evolves', the process takes months if not years to proceed step by little step. Sit down with me and imagine, what would it be like if...
