Zhao Li being a trained cleric keeps her calm and asks quietly yet confidently, "Who sent you to this holy care chamber? By your appearance, I bet it is the Cursed Snake Sect." Linh replied with her blade touching Zhao's neck, "You are smarter than you look, filthy wench. I wish you had the strength to fight me but that is the not the case. Sorry to say but you are not going to see the day you had waited so long for. But you are not completely useless, I have a job worthy of your talents. "
"What do you want me to do, you reptilian witch? " Meanwhile, Zhao Li had converted 546 mindrops into 30 pounds of spirit force in her palm, unnoticed to Linh.
Linh said in a masterly tone, "Wake him up for one last time. Let's play with the little demon before he drifts away to death. "
In the meantime, Junjie and Nao have prepared for a deadly duel. Their powers were evenly matched, both at the Late Stage Battle Beast Realm. Junjie had trained under Divine Emperor's supervision at the Royal Martial Sect and had a battle experience of 4th Sovereign of Heavens. On the other hand, Nao was one of the twelve elite assassins of Cursed Snake Cult, trained by the legendary Shiny Basilisk. He was a very stealthy rogue trained in the Laws of Shadow, specialising in Ancient Arts of King Cobra.
As a matter of fact, Shiny Basilisk was the tyrant ruler of Green Reptilian kingdom before losing to Ming Chi, a young cultivator then and now the Divine Emperor of Mortal Realm. Since then the Shiny Basilisk has been gaining power to take his long awaited revenge. Both our
warriors were well aware of the history and will fight not just for their lives but their master's pride as well.

Jungle drawed his holy heirloom passed on this by his ancient ancestor, the first and the most legendary sword wielder under the heavens.
He definitely is not going to hold back.
He said,"Oh holy blade, let me use your mighty powers to slay the evil and make the Divine Emperor proud."
The sword glowed crimson in the gloomy hallway.
Mao was carefully analyzing Jujie's powers and said,"That's a very fancy weapon you have, I think good enough to please master Basilisk. Let's see how long will Divine emperor's training keeps you on your feet. His final words echoed in the narrow hallway and Mao united himself with the shadows around. Woosh! And he disappeared into pitch black darkness.
Junjie said, "That won't do you any good because me and my heavenly sword has sworn to kill you." He thrusted his sword with all his might, in the ground and a squashing sound came."And the oath to my ancestors is fulfilled like always, you are dead now."
Nao appeared out of darkness, unwounded and said, "Your blind belief in powers of this legendary sword got you killed. One must remember, a sword is only as capable as its wielder. "
Junjie saw that his sure to kill move ended his tip of blade in a cobra's mouth and slowly his senses got dull, not because of some poison but by mere shock of realizing that he is weak. The worst death a Battle Beast Swordsman could have was a death filled with regret and shame. Junjie realized that his fate was to die such a death.
Nao said, "That is the Ancient Art of King Cobra. I don't sense any will to live in you. That makes you as good as dead. Haha, this is one more victory against Divine Emperor. I wish he had trained you well enough to match my powers. Oh and if you don't mind, that sword is mine from now on. "
Junjie said, "Wait... I wa... " But before he could finish, the rouge had finished him in a fast elegant movement and thus ending the intense bloody battle.
Nao walked away with pride to the Care Chamber and said while walking, "No last wishes granted to the weak defeated losers like you. "
He heard a hissy voice, filled with pain of his partner Linh from prince's room. He rushed to the voice with all of his shadow snakes behind him.
