With all their might, San and Handa started running away. While caring their son, the despair and urgency was evident within their eyes. Employing profound movement techniques, the couple reached supersonic speeds, yet it was all futile.
"Surrender, you have no way out" said a man running behind them. He shortened the distance between them very fast. But the couple was not ready to surrender, doing their best to still escape from the man. But suddenly another man appeared in front of them.
"Do no resist us and we'll leave your corpses intact" said the second one with a voice filled with contempt. He hoped they would resist so he could enjoy later a exciting time with them.
"Han SenLing, why did you turn on us, we never offended you!" said Handa indignant. They had always had enemies, yet somehow in the recent decade the hunt of the couple grew many times.
"Where there's money, there's a path. The bounty on your bloodline is huge. You should know why." Handa and San knew very clearly the reason. ‘Humanity has fallen this low already, quenching their thirst with poison.'
"But enough now, just kill them" said the first one. Taking his saber out he unleashed his most powerful attack, because he knew very well the tremendous power of this couple. The second one also toke his spear out and attacked the couple.
Feeling the power behind those strikes, the couple instantly created a barrier around them, protecting their son. Yet, having used their strongest attacks the two men strikes shattered the barrier and struck the couple. Both of them went flying for a few meters, before slamming into the earth and coughing a mouthful of blood.

"He has to survive; we can't let him die." The women, San, wasn't willing to let her son die, insanity evident in her already crazed eyes.
"Are you ready for the cost?" "I am" Noticing the conversation between both of the couple, SenLing and the other man, swift attack again to disrupt whatever they had in mind. Anticipating the trio's death and the bounty, both of their eyes started to brighten.
‘I will buy as many women and delicacies as I want, enjoying the life.' One of them already started to plan for the money he would get. He thought so until he saw, that the trio started to blurry and give out an ethereal feeling. Causing the attacks to pass right true them, without damaging them.
"What the…." SenLing began to swear but couldn't understand what happened. He looked the other one in the eyes, seeing the same confusion in his eyes.
"They truly did it, I can't believe it" said a voice behind them with surprise and shock. Another man had appeared behind them, dressed totally blue with a rose on his chest, showing his sect. The same as on both the other men, except that both of them were in orange showing their inferiority.
"Master, what did they do?" asked SenLing with curiosity.
"They used an ancient teleport technique, which takes as fuel both of their souls, extinguishing them of life forever. It is said that neither some legendary lifesaving treasures nor going back in time can save them." Explained the master with still some shock lingering.
"It is posible to go back in time and resurrect a dead body?" asked the other man with more shock about the fact than the disappearance of the couple.
"Never heard of legends, doings that supposedly existed? How you became so powerful while being so stupid is mystery itself." said the master with sarcasm.
