《Crossing The Lands》1] - [Confusion]
Advertisement
I hold an exquisite glass of pink wine. Under the moonlight, I stand tall.
I am old...
I am old but strong, so strong even that no one under the Heavens dare to look at me.
So why?
Why is there a blade plunged into my back?
Why is my precious blood flowing into my wine without stop?
How?
How can someone pierce my skin, muscles, bones and finally my heart..?
How?!
Screaming at the top of his lungs, Guizou, a white haired old man, curses to the silent Heavens.
Waiting for the response, his white beard flutters along the breeze. This same cooling breeze refreshing his brawny build. Scars of all kinds hidden beneath his luxurious robes.
A lack of answers to his miserable howl was expected.
Stroking his white beard, Guizou turns his head around.
Behind him, a dark shadow. This figure is a true grandmaster of stealth. Even Guizou, the Nine Skies Great Emperor, ruler of the Fairy Land, cannot feel its presence.
Even while staring at it directly, Guizou is simply at a loss.
Strong... This... thing? This thing is too good. I lost, and I don't even know what happened... One moment I am fine, the next I am doomed.
Sipping on his wine, Guizou is speechless, but that does not hinder him from enjoying the beautiful night sky.
"Listen kid, I am about to die, so why not tell me? Just tell me, I have around thirty seconds left to live. Shouldn't I at least know why? I applaud your skills, but your etiquette is quite lacking."
"..."
Seeing that his question will remain void of enlightenment, Guizou can only exhale in determination.
"Since you refuse to answer, I will take some liberties!"
Raising his arm, Guizou has no choice. Instead of withering like a mortal, he must act as he should, as a Great Emperor should.

Turning his whole torso right, Guizou ignores the shocking sight behind.
He ignores the uncaring shadow.
He ignores the shadow's incredible raw power.
He ignores the shadow's dagger almost splitting his body in half.
He ignores death's call.
Guizou has only one objective.
To die with honor!
Scoffing at his futile attempt, the shadow raise its right hand.
The assassin, a being that should fear close combat, is asking for his strike.
Guizou ignores it. He does not care.
He only wishes to land a strike.
Seeing the shadow waiting for his punch, Guizou can only smile.
"At least you are not a complete waste, you know some barebone etiquette!" Laughing like madman, Guizou's flexible body land a left punch with roaring might.
The strike lands perfectly. The shockwave alone reduce his balcony and palace to rubble.
The uncaring shadow shows no sign of shock, disbelief or even surprise.
The shadow's eyes are only filled with contempt.
His vitality already drained, Guizou sigh.
"Well, see you next time!" His tall and sturdy body collapsing, the shadow nods.
And as it disappears, Guizou's body turns cold.
Even ignoring my soul? This thing is worth teaching, such respect for the dead!
A white and ethereal figure extirpating itself from the now freezing vessel, its pale glow becomes the new moon.
Laughing, Guizou's translucent hands reach for the empty air.
Grabbing something invisible, he opens his arms wide.
The world screeching, the fabric of space is torn open.
Laughing, Guizou enters it.
Once inside, he only has one option.
Before the void fissure closes, he waves his hand.
A green jade pendant immediately fly to his hand.
Caressing it, Guizou's eyes lose a shade of sublimity.
"Honey, your husband is leaving. Your husband is leaving for great adventures! So, don't feel sad..." Remembering his palace's golden graveyard, Guizou circulate his spiritual energy, forcibly entering the pendant.
The void fissure repaired by the world, the jade pendant is sent into the chaotic void and its powerful vortex.
