Chapter 13: taste of fame

Huang tian boiled with anger and rage as he walked the events that happened while he was gone still ringed in his mined from the voice of the inn keeper, apparently the two men that he beat up when saving the two kids worked for a gang boss that had some quiet an influence in this city, they called him boss Li and after he heard what happened to his underlings by someone unknown kid he thought that he made him lose face, so he sent his people looking for him but at that time he had already left to the unnamed forest so after looking for weeks they still didn’t find him, feeling shame boss Li ordered to capture the two kids and spread the word that if he doesn’t come in 3 weeks he would regret what will come later.

Walking through the alleys Huang tian looked for some of boss Li underlings, the alleys were dark filled with dust and dirt and smelled like trash only some small light passed through the buildings which made it hard to see in the alleys, after spending the whole day looking he finally found two men getting out of a shady building laughing.

“Haha, did you hear the kid that boss Li ordered to capture came to the city” said the man in front while holding a bottle of wine.

“Are you sure, he would be an idiot if he did that after running away all that time, if boss Li gets hold of him, he will make his fate worse than the other two kids” said the other man surprised.

Suddenly the first man who was talking saw a figure appear before him with a terrifying aura asking “what happened to the two kids?”

“kid who the hell are you, you better leave when I am still in a good mood” apparently the man wasn’t sober and didn’t recognize Huang tian, Huang tian sent an electric current that jolted him, being jolted the man looked around seeing his stupefied friend and then saw a young boy staring him, realizing what happened the man stuttered “Little ancestor please forgive this insolent one, he didn’t recognize little ancestor” the man bowed and almost knelt down, if he were with other underlings he wouldn’t have been afraid, as they were a lot and Huang tian was only one, but now he kept shaking every time he remembered what happened to the two that fought this kid.

Huang tian frowned then said “Get up, tell me where are the two kids that you just talked about”

“This insolent only know that they sent to boss Li’s house, I don’t know anything else”

Huang tian looked at the shaking man and the other one looking for anyway to escape and told them “Lead me to boss Li’s house”

The two men stunned and thought the same thing ‘is this kid really an idiot’ to them they were only afraid because they were alone but if they regrouped with the other underlings why would they have to fear at that time, and this kid asked them to lead him to the most place filled with boss Li’s underlings, thinking they were fooling him them said quickly “Of course little ancestor, just follow me”

“Walking through the alleys and then several streets they finally arrived at a big house at the edge of the city filled with guards, before could the two mean leading Huang tian run to the guards Huang tian voice reverberated through the house “DOG FACE LI GET OUT IF YOU DARE”

The two men were stunned in place while the guards were surprised but they quickly regained their composure and recognized Huang tian, they got their weapons out and went directly to Huang tian.

“Kid, what do you have inside your head, you will regret coming and saying what you have just said”

“Don’t say anything brother Yun, let’s just capture him before boss Li comes raging”

“That’s right this kid is already done for”

Seeing the guards ignoring him as if he was nothing, Huang tian smiled, it was a smile that came right from hell seeing this smile the guards stopped talking and a chill went down their spines.

“Damn this kid I will end him right now” feeling humiliated the guard called Brother Yun went straight to Huang tian.

When he saw the guard dashing towards him, Huang tian took a step forward and he was covered with scarlet colored thunder, another step and he appeared before the dashing guard finally he sent a punch towards the guard’s face, the guard head directly wen to the ground and he fainted, the other guards that were coming forward stopped, although they knew that they can defeat Huang tian if they all rushed up, no one wanted to come in contact with that scarlet lightning, what they didn’t know was Huang tian couldn’t use the thunder as much as they thought, if it’s just conjuring lightning without using it for anything, he could do that for some time but the moment he used it for any purpose at most he could hold for 40 breaths of time before the lightning went away and that was the simplest use, after all Huang tian was only in the six foundations without much energy to rely on.

Suddenly another voice reverberated through the house “Boy you really have some courage coming back” a thin man appeared from the house he wore extravagant clothes and gave off a stench aura that made Huang tian just hate him from looking at him.

“Although you have courage yet you are also stupid and it was too late” Boss li smiled and then shouted “Bring it” three Guards came out of the house holding two bodies and threw them on the ground.

Huang tian body shook from rage and the lightning crackled more, the two bodies were the two kids he saved he could see all kinds of bruises on their body, and a slice on their throats, he knew they died, they died because of him, he had the power to protect to them yet because nobody knew him, they thought he was a weak kid and could do anything they wanted, this huge bitterness and anger ate his heart, this was Huang tian first taste of the lack of fame.

Huang tian rushed towards Boss li with scarlet lightning crackling around him, he sent myriad of punches, yet boss li blocked them all, astonished till now Huang tian only fought his underlings and the most powerful one was at body foundation while all the other were at the half mortal realm, yet boss li was at least at the peak of Dantian foundation or even in the spirit foundation.

Huang tian kept sending all sort of punches and kicks but boss li blocked them all and the punches he sent Huang tian could barely block them and injuries started accumulating on his body.

Boss Li looked at Huang tian getting beat up by him and got wary he thought to himself this kid can conjure lightning while still in the six foundations yet he only used to enhance his attacks and didn’t attack using it directly, he knew that Huang tian kept a hidden card.

Suddenly Huang tian swept his leg towards boss Li’s face, raising his hand to block the attack bit nothing happened and he saw a knee heading towards his side, boss li quickly thought ‘a feint!’ he quickly dodged back dodging the knee, contrary to his thoughts Huang tian didn’t retract his leg but he stretched it stomped it to the ground propelling his body towards him and reaching his hand towards boss Li’s face before boss Li could do anything to dodge or block, Huang tian Hand reached above one of Boss Li’s eye and suddenly ice started to form from his finger towards the eye.

Huang tian used the first move of the quantum legends style, absolute yin, blinding boss Li Huang tian quickly took out a dagger and stabbed in boss Li’s chest, between it and the heart was only one centimeter.

“Cunning kid, this was your purpose all along, you used the lightning for distracting my thoughts about thinking that you might had any other ability, why did you keep alive, just don’t expect me to do anything” Boss li laughed as if he wasn’t the one with the dagger near the heart or with a blinded eye.

“Really, do you think so?” Huang tian gave the same smile that he gave when he came a one that came directly from hell, suddenly he sent electric current through the dagger flying through boss Li’s body.

“AHHHHHH, STOP I WILL GIVE ALL YOU WANT, JUST STOP” feeling the electricity reside away, boss Li’s eyes were full of fear, he didn’t think they kid in front of him would be this cruel, he thought because the boy didn’t kill him that he was just a green horn, and that he didn’t kill before.

Boss Li’s thoughts were right about Huang tian never killing before, but although he never killed would mean that he would hesitate doing it, after seeing his family destroyed Huang tian heart hardened as steel, if he classified anyone as an enemy he needed to kill, he would kill him without a shred of mercy.

‘Why did you come looking for me and why did you capture the kids and kill them” Huang tian asked as he knew this matter wasn’t simple as it looked to be, he didn’t really think that this fox went for all these measures for just two unknown underlings, there was something deeper than that.

Surprised boss Li asked “you didn’t know” just as he was hesitating he saw lightning crackling around Huang tian again he quickly said “I will say! I will say!”

Boss Li sighed “The two kids parents were cultivators before they died they gave the two kids a treasure map, it marked a treasure for cultivators, I wanted to take it from them that day without taking an attention, so I only sent two underlings to appear as a simple extortion, but you appeared, after hearing what happened, I though you also knew about the map, and wanted to take it, everything after that you know”

Huang tian knew even if he electrified him again he wouldn’t get any more truthful information, he didn’t even know if this information was true like why did the cultivators only leave their kids only a map why didn’t he just go after acquiring the map, but he asked the most important question “Where is the map now?”

It seemed that boss li knew that this question was coming he answered “It’s with me” and he reached towards his clothes.

Suddenly Huang tian backed away and went to the side of the blinded eye of boss Li and then a dagger appeared from his hand this time the dagger came from the sovereign ring and sliced boss Li’s throat.

Boss Li’s one eye went wide opened and fell to the ground with a bottle filled with red substance in his hand the last word that came from his mouth “c-cu-cunning K-Kid”

Huang tian quickly took the bottle and took all the belongings on boss Li’s body and the bodies of the two kids and rushed to the alley, while doing that nobody dared to disturb that little monster, all the guards stood there speechless, they knew a storm would run the city tomorrow after the death of boss Li by an unknown kid.
