I went back to the clan to brag about my incredible victory to Cyrek and the Queen, but of course they were in an orgy. At Least I saw some women were added too, so it was a better situation for Cyrek.

Later, I was able to report the victory. I had taken his head as a trophy. They both recoiled.

“We would have believed you, dude. Jesus.” Cyrek now wore a regal gown and sat in a, albeit smaller, throne next to the queen.

What, don't assassins usually do this?

I also told them of the disease, and a way we could use it. Send it to the Shi clan. That idea was rejected, because it would cause too much damage to the innocents. Since when did everyone become so soft? Wasn’t this the north?

A large force of the clan went and easily took over the Chang’s residence. There were a few that fought back, but Cyrek and the queen took care of them easily, both outer field cultivators. This was done as a show of prowess.

They did not kill the diseased, but merely quarantined them.

I didn't tell any of them, but I snuck Azue’s head onto one of the food carts heading for the top of the mountain, to the Shi clan. The disease was sure to spread.

I was first in the vault, I walked around, noticing some nice weapons and armor. Too bad beast’s don't use weapons or armor. I took all the plants and herbs I could. Deep in, I found a massive room of potions. Most were health elixirs, which just healed me. I ignored them.

A few liquid ice potions, and a single blue and green swirling one. I drank the liquid ice potions.

[5% Ice resistance gained.] Au-ha was doing the thing again.

[5% Ice resistance gained.] This was useless to me. I drank the clearly special one.

[2% defense, 5% earth affinity, 10% ice resistance.] Well, that one was alright.

“Au-ha, only show me the good pills and potions.” I asked.

“What's good?” She asked. I was stumped for a while.

“Anything that increases strength, defense, relevant elements, or just large percentages. I just want the big numbers honestly.” I came up with the most scientific algorithm.

That was all that was good in the vault, I left the rest to the clan. As for the former Chang clan members, they were all either forced at the bottom rank of the clan, or thrown off the mountain. The Giantess women were the happiest i've seen them, while the chang women were terrified.

Clan acquisition, the Ye Clan grew enormously, the threat would not be unnoticed. In fact, as the two clans began to merge, I heard the horns blow, and out from the tree’s came the Qin clan. Large and muscular, they all used spears or fists. Many would throw their spears, and then fight with fists.

It was a large-scale attack, as hordes of them ran down the mountain. I looked at Cyrek.

“You think you can handle these guys?” I questioned. He looked at me with open eyes, before realizing the plan. “Of course, it's no problem,” he spoke confidently as he used the Ice towers technique to great effect.

I took to the skies once more, and flew at the highest speed straight into the heart of the qin clan, many miles up the hill. There existed another small kingdom of ice and stone

Almost all of the warriors were gone, they had not been expecting me, clearly. Women walked around casually with children playing in the empty space of the clans plazas and fields. I few guards at the gate, I dove straight into the main hall with a lightning-esque ferocity.

Crushing through the wall, I landed in the middle of stony dust and ice. A wide open hall, without even a table for feasts. It looked as if it was an arena, where the king and queen would judge each match. I stepped up, and stood in the center of the arena.

They sat there, high above thrones, watching as I was about to attack. A voice stopped me.

“Turn, beast, I am your opponent.” There stood a man, surely the clan's young master. He was tall, muscles bulging, with a thin layer of icy coating. His hair was long and dark blue. He stood in the stance of a pure warrior, no weapons by his side.

I turned and faced him, hunching down in this earthly martial stance that has lasted me since. He charged in wildly, only to take two quick jabs to the stomach as I dodged. He grunted in pain, my strength was easily my strongest aspect now.

He began slowly breathing in and out, causing small gusts of wind, he rushed forward again, this time leaping upwards and slamming the ground, the shockwave sent me back, and ice clouded my vision. I could somehow feel him coming behind me but it was too late, I was grabbed. As he lifted me and attempted a suplex, my tail shot forth, stabbing him straight through the eye, killing him instantly.

I threw his arms off me, and flew through the air, straight at the two rulers of the clan. Blanche and Aval, they stood there calm even as they saw their own son die. My third eye opened, and force blasted the place apart, they dodged the blast and landed in a plaza outside.

I landed across from them, both with different shades of blue hair, both muscular and lean, they almost looked to be brother and sister. I wouldn't put it past them. They also stood with no weapons in a pure martial stance.

“Beast, this is northern kung Fu.” said the man, Aval.

“Face our combined fury.” The woman spoke, blanche. They both got into what looked like an almost artistic stance.

The woman was low, her leg extended, leaning back on the other. The man was standing on one foot, leaning slightly back with his other leg in front of him.

I leaned down, arms blocking my torso and face, two fists that could crush mountain ranges. My monkey's tail began to extend into another limb.

In less than a second, a flurry of blows had begun. First the woman came in low continuous sweeps, forcing me to take steps back just in time. The man came with continuous high kicks and round-houses, causing me to duck and swerve. Finally, a low sweep landed, and they went into a combo.

The woman kicked me up, as the man drop kicked me down. Before I could land, the woman swept my head, knocking me far to the side. I was bloodied from this single combo, my mind a swimming mess. I laughed loudly and got back into my normal martial stance.

They continued to use this tactic, flinging me about a few times. They attacked so fast it seemed like instant acceleration. I was driveled in blood when I finally saw a small opening.

This time I shot forward, and swung with a straight kick to the man, he sidestepped it, but fell to the simultaneous tail swipe toward his leg. The woman came low, but I propelled her back a dozen feet with a quick magnetic force blast from the third eye. I attacked the now grounded man with an axe kick with the strength of many mountains, smashing his chest apart and cracking the earth.

The woman screamed his name and came out with a flurry of palm swipes, I dodged and swerved and was able to counterattack her many times. One cross-counter to the head sent her back a few feet, the second spewing blood, the third knocking her off her feet, and rolling next to the man. He was in critical condition.

The fight seemed over, I was panting, coated in blood and ready to finish them. Then, they looked at each other, and nodded.

The woman stuck a hand in the man's already smashed open chest, and grabbed the center of his domain, she worded ‘I love you’ as he quickly died. She was holding an invisible field the cultivator once called Aval. She ate it, like a beast.

Her hair instantly began to burn of blue icy flame, her body too turning into this pure form of energy. This form was not able to be sustained, a mere taste of the power and there was only one thought.

Run. Run until she fades away. I flew fast into the air. But she was far above me in a single leap, a slam downwards greeted shockwaves in the air and completely smashed the earth below, it was stronger than that damn cyclops. This time though, I didn't let myself get hit again, and used a magnetic blow to propel myself out of the way. She landed deep into the already now completely shattered clans grounds.

“You should attack, it'll wear her form down faster.” Au-ha suggested in my moment of need.

It was frightening as hell, but I faced this flaming ice beast that was once a woman. She was now over a third dissipated. I shot a triple-pronged blast of lightning that sent her flying back. I was amazed at the power, this was the first time I used the third pupil. Earth supports the power of lightning amazingly well, it seems. I blasted strike after strike, and soon, she was on the run.

However, she quickly turned, and smashed herself straight through one. It knocked off an entire arm of hers, but the other was quickly upon my throat. She slammed me up and down, like a ragdoll. My body began to break in places, a savage pain shooting through me even with au-ha tuning down all perceived pain. I opened my mouth, and bit hard on her wrist, with the strength of a beast, the strength of the Jaw of the Czar, it bit off her wrist instantly.

No fists, all she could do was kick. It was simple enough to dodge even though she was extremely quick. My breath was haggard and movements rough, I was tossed around in the last few vicious leg swipes. As she came upon me, reading to stomp my head into metal shards, I blasted her upper torso completely off with a devastating bolt.

She was now almost fully dissipated at last. I sat there, in the shattered earth, the clan almost completely destroyed at the center by the battle. I heard the last groans of the creature gone mad, as she faded into icy mist. I sat there too, trying to get my blood flowing as fast as possible.

After a few hours, my bones had fully healed, and I crawled out of the deep pit in the ground.

This time, the first thing I did was wander into the vault.
