On a grassy cliff on a cold Island was a woman. She appeared to be in her late teens, early twenties, yet had a mature and experienced aura about her. She had shocking beautiful black hair, that was crudely tied in a pony tail. Worn on her body, was a black skirt with black short shorts under, and black boots on her feet. Over her top, was a black button up shirt. She quietly stood in the dark, not making a sound. She had her eyes closed, but upon looking at her, you would feel like she saw into your soul. She stood there, yet it seemed like nobody stood there. The grass under her feet didn’t press down, and the wind failed to rustle her hair or clothes in the slightest. This scene was unimaginably captivating, yet it was totally shattered in the next moment.
“ Hey, you stupid little bitch, Xia Yun! How are you liking the Shiu poison? Magical, isn’t it? HAHAHA! “ the arrogant voice of a male sounded behind her, as the woman slowly tilted her head behind her. Slowly opening her eyes, one could see a pair of demonic looking red eyes. They glittered and sparkled in the darkness, and one would feel their souls being sucked in as they looked at her. Looking at the idiotic existence of a man in front of her, the young woman felt that she was very dumb for trusting such a person. He was forty, yet looked in his late twenties. The eyes of the man in front of her, filled with such uncontrolled lust that, It seemed to be radiating from him. The man looked quite handsome, with a somewhat heroic but approachable aura. However, the contorted disgusting expression on his face totally ruined what handsomeness he had. In the eyes of the young woman, the man looked nothing but repulsive.
“ Mr. Wen, you’ve drugged me? “ the woman asked in a cold and detached voice. The man, upon seeing the expression on her face and hearing the tone in her voice, felt his anger reach the sky. “ Xia Yun, YOU DUMB SLUT! You can’t even move your Qi, you’re just like a mortal now, yet you still act so ARROGANT and PRIDEFUL?!? Haha, I’ll show you what real pain feels like! “ the man yelled, as he started dashing towards the woman. The woman, apathetically watching the man approach her, suddenly had a change of expression. However, the expression, instead of the look of terror the man wanted to see, the look that appeared was a vicious smile. She laughed crazily, as she collided with the man and wrapped her arms around the man in front of her. Looking at her insane expression, the man thought of a possibility.
The man, finally noticing his peril, wanted to move...but alas, It was too late. A clear Ding sound echoed throughout the surroundings, as an explosion resounded throughout the area, along with a psychotic laugh that seemed to bounce off the the hills and formations on the island even longer than the explosion.
Xia Yun, who sacrificed herself to take down the horrible man in front of her, watched her eyes flash in front of her eyes. She had her parents murdered as a six year old, and was brought in by the murderers of her parents to train as an assassin and complete bounties. At age ten, she had killed nine people. At twelve, she officially become a Legend-Ranked assassin with over 300 kills and a 100% Kill rating. Unbeknownst to those around her, she was able to cultivate a kind of inner energy. She had no idea what It was, but she knew it strengthened her body, so she consistently took in this energy. Her life and training, along with mental stress, had managed to make her develop a talent in cultivation, something only 1 in 3billion would possess. If one had this gift yet never fought and realized it, it would go unnoticed. The mortals called these cultivators ‘immortals’ despite not knowing if they were actually unkillable or not.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
After she became legend rank, Xia Yun quickly rose in kills. When she was she was sixteen, her kill count reached over 90,000. She came to a stop in her gathering of energy at age fourteen, and finally ‘broke through’ the barrier at age sixteen, after her 90,000th kill. Her abilities seemed to have tripled, and she became even stronger. With the impurities from her body removed, her skin looked as pure as jade. She had beauty before, but now even an old geezer would feel moved by her beauty. It simply wasn’t possible for such beauty to exist on this plane, and truly wasn’t. However, this beauty truly had thorns. She had a cold, unfeeling, and eccentric personality, and snaps when she kills. Although nobody had ever seen her kill, her kill count and efficiency was staggering. Anybody who has seen her in action, died shortly thereafter.
Although there were some cultivators in this plane, they simply weren’t as talented as Xia Yun. Her mentality and personality were suited for her own idea of what cultivation was. She broke through to Foundation Comprehending Realm at age Sixteen, something that people would find it impossible to do at any age in a place with such scarce Qi. After breaking through, with her beauty and skill, nobody else could hold a candle to her. Once upon a time, when she broke through to Foundation stage 4, she encountered an error. Although she broke though, she was weakened, and was saved by a teacher named Professor Wen. He taught things like Qi and was like a mentor to anybody found to have cultivation talent. He was introduced after Xia Yun had been, thus Xia Yun was surprised with him but eventually got used to him. For her 19th birthday, she was also celebrating her breakthrough to Foundation realm nine. Although she didn’t know the difference in sub-realms, she felt her strength increase. In a cheery mood, she invited a few associates to a small gathering to chat and enjoy herself. Feeling strange, she excused herself and walked away to a cliffside on the island they had held the gathering on. She gazed at the stars, and closed her eyes to enjoy the breeze, before she had been interrupted.
Legend-rank Assassin Xia Yun, sacrificing herself to keep both herself and her chastity safe, brought down Black Gold-Rank Assassin Ni Wen on a cold but inviting night. Her soul scattered, and entered the dao, to wander.
