"What the fuck, Aiden?" Mi Tha shouted, the world swirling around her for a moment as her heart tried to leap out of her chest. The consequences of his actions were just unimaginable.
"Brother An is here, let me go." Lan Yueya woke up for a moment, but Mi Tha pushed her back to sleep. Mi Tha couldn't bear the naïve little girl taking over right now. The situation was already messed up and she couldn't let her mess it up more.
Aiden rushed into the dark forest, the branches of the tree aiming for him.
Good for him. If he dared to destroy the energy barrier around the inheritance, then he should die. Not that she would care. Lan Yueya would make some fuss, but as long as she didn't kill him by her hands, she could brush off the responsibility.
Mi Tha stopped chasing him as the dark tree branch shot for him. Even if he didn't die, she would make sure he died here today.
"What the…"
The branch didn't hit Aiden. He tossed a black flame at it and it went to sleep.
"Demon Fire. Is it really demon fire? How did he get it?" Mi Tha furrowed her brow. The Dark Demon Inheritance was hidden inside a giant formation, and the only way to cross it was by Dark Demon Subdue skill. Normally one would have to be fortunate to find the Dark Demon Subdue skill through a dungeon or an beast, but she had it on her, so she could easily get through the formation. However, Aiden had already broken the formation and she couldn't use the skill, and ended up spending hours traversing through them with much difficulty.
It all came to Lan Yueya not having any foundation in her cultivation. If she had better cultivation, Mi Tha could have cut through the trees easily.
There was another way, and that was Demon Fire. It could put those trees to sleep. Those trees liked to eat demon fire, but it was a very rare skill. Even she hadn't got it in her previous life.
Mi Tha charged behind him. This bastard had ruined her plans, and he deserved to die. She will kill him a thousand times over.
However, the moment she entered the forest, the sleeping trees lashed at her.
"What?" She leaped back, avoiding the attack.
"Why are you stopping? Afraid?" Aiden stood next to a dark tree, resting his back on it while eating a fruit. He was fucking teasing her.
"You have no idea what you've done, Aiden. In ten seconds, everyone within a hundred miles will be teleported out of the formation. They'll find a way back in, and we'll lose the inheritance."
"You will lose the inheritance. I never wanted one." He chuckled evilly.
Watching him chuckle enraged her to the core. If she could destroy him with just a glare, she would have burned his muscles and drank his blood.
"Fuck you." She turned back and rushed away from the blood river. She could use the boat, but she had to deduce the working on it first, and she would become the sole focus of the assault.
Damn it, I want to kill him." Mi Tha glared at Aiden as he ate the fruit. With no other choice, she rushed into the path he had created, planning to hide in the forest and wait for the right moment to strike.

Wang Renmei was about to crush the poison pill to kill her target when the notification popped in front of her eyes and she lost her concentration. The dark realm cultivator grasped the chance and teleported away.
"Fuck. I was so close." She stomped her feet, cursing at the notification. She wanted to torture five dark realm cultivators today. Last time, that bastard Necromancer Alex had made her suffer a demoralizing loss. If he hadn't used his lewd ways to distract her, she would have killed him. However, she was ready this time and worked hard to improve her cultivation to layer eight in no time. She had to pay a lot for it and she was going to wipe out her humiliation.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
Damn it. Just thinking about that day made her body quiver. She had to lose face and use an escape move to save herself. People were laughing back at the sect because of it.
"What the hell is popping up now?" She glanced at the notification and her stern expression broke in a smile.
System: Dark Demon inheritance is opened up. Do you want to travel to the inheritance grounds?
Of course, she chose yes. Why would she miss on an inheritance like this? Inheritances were rare and one in the Outerworld Battlefields was more rare. It might contain a super rare skill that could change her future and fortune completely. For the starter, she couldn't let anyone else take it from her.
A bronze glow swallowed her up, and she materialized next a dark forest. The area was off-limits since the trees readily claimed lives. Though the trees held a valuable alchemy ingredient, nobody dared gather it, as getting close meant certain death.
Suddenly, she realized there were dozens of eyes staring at her. When she turned, she found herself in the middle of two groups. One familiar, and one unfamiliar with lecherous gazes.
"Sister Renmei, come to our side." One of the holy realm cultivator bowed to her respectfully, and she quickly walked toward them. There were a hundred odd people, and they had divided into two groups. Holy realm group had a larger number, but they didn't attack the dark realm people yet. There were two reasons for it. First, if they killed the enemy, they will get booted out of the battlefield, losing the chance to earn the inheritance, and second reason was Zombie Gu Mor.
"Sister Renmei, it's good that you came." Zhao Kun walked to her while her twin brother, Zhao Wuan, ogled at Wang Renmei's breasts.
"You both are in this weekly quest." Wang Renmei glared at Zhao Wuan, but the lecher didn't even pretend to look other ways. These two were famous twins from Earthly Moon Sect.
"Why can't we come? When the fairy Renmei comes, I should also come." Zhao Kun chuckled, his saliva dripping as he undressed her with his naked eyes.
"I'll kill you think time," Wang Renmei blurted, her rage clashing in her throat.
"You two, I'll rape you tonight." A burly man from the dark realm side chuckled. He held a long machete behind his back and had two fangs coming out of his mouth.
"Zombie Gu Mor, what the hell is he doing here?" Zhao Kun blurted out, her eyes almost popping out. It seemed like she hadn't seen the deterrence from the dark realm yet.
"I'm going to kill him this time." Wang Renmei muttered. This bastard was one of the fiercest dark realm cultivator from the dark realm side. He had a bad reputation of raping woman before killing them. He had got a mass killing missions a couple of times, and he had massacred people from holy realm. Despite having 3-1 advantage in every weekly quest, holy realm cultivators around layer nine batch were suppressed by this guy.
"You bastard. How dare you call our fairy with your lewd tongue?" A righteous cultivator stepped forward, raising his palm to call a light skill. A sphere of light appeared on his palm, shining brightly on the backdrop of the dark forest.
Zombie Gu Mor blurred and appeared right before the holy realm cultivator and his machete swung like a blade and the holy realm cultivator's head dropped on the ground.
Everyone turned silent.
"Phantom Steps. No wonder he is unrivaled in the current rank." Zhao Wuan muttered, his gaze turning sharp. "But he needs a few breaths to activate it. As long as I keep moving, he can't catch me." A fierce desire burned in his eyes.
Wang Renmei sighed. These people were all monsters, and she suddenly felt weak. With her poison pills, could she really battle against them?

On the other side, two female cultivators sat on a large stone watching the display between the holy and dark realm groups.
"Hua Pa, stand up. Stop stuffing me with your ass. Making me a chair is not a wise choice."
The taller woman kicked the stone under her and the voices stopped.
"This little brother of our is talking too much these days. Sister Mei, why don't you use your Silence skill on him so we can enjoy sitting here for longer?" Hua Pa complained. This guy's voice was irritating.
"He is my Stone Familiar, so I can't use the skill on him. How many times do I've to tell you?" Hua Mei answered back.
"Sister Mei, why no one is taking revenge for that holy cultivator?" Hua Pa asked.
"No one is fool enough to play fights at this moment. This inheritance has deep value for both the factions, so they will preserve their strength. However, there will be a big battle at the end." Hua Mei sighed out loud. "Sister Pa, this trial will not be easy, and as a lone holy realm cultivators we have to be careful."
"If you unseal your powers, these all will be dead in no time." Hua Pa scoffed. This big sister of her was always like this, humble, and scared, but she had enough power to kill a Foundation Realm cultivator.
"Let's go." Hua Mei got up, and the stone retreated into her sleeve, making Hua Pa fall on her ass.
"That bastard. He did it on purpose." Hua Pa bellowed, but when she saw the dark realm and holy realm cultivators charging in the dark forest by their group, she stopped cursing.
It was time to get the inheritance, and nothing else mattered.
