Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 - Prequel

[Sixrock City]

"My lord."

A servant enters the city lord's office.

"What is it?"

A deep voice answered.

"Young master has left his courtyard."

The servant replied.

"Haaaaa ... is he going to the Weeping Swan sect's ceremony?"

The city lord question as he continues his work.

"Yes my lord, it seems that he wants to become a disciple."

"I see, well he better make it in the sect otherwise he will have to be trained again."

The city lord puts down his pen and looks out the window.

'His mother is going to be worried'

An unfathomable light appears in his gaze before disappearing.

~Somewhere on the streets of Sixrock city~

*SNEEZE*

"Who is talking behind my back?"

The youth looks around.

'Hm, must be the girls thinking I'm so good."

He narcissistically declared.

'Well, time to buy some snacks for the ceremony so I can eat while watching.'

He starts running to the pavilion in the city.

The sect ceremony, one of the important events the kids in the city can partake in. In the ceremony, participants are tested to see if they can become a part of the sect, it sees which participant is a talent the sect would invest in.

'I wonder who is going to get into the sect?'

He ponders as he slows down to think about it.

'There is the Yan family with their water techniques, the Fang family with their earth and spear techniques, lots of families have very good techniques that can give them an edge over others who are participating in the ceremony.'

While he continues to ponder, he didn't notice the hand reaching from behind him.

*SWISH*

'Hmm?'

He snaps out of his thought as he sees a person running past him.

'What's with th- MY PURSE!'

"MY PURSE! GET BACK HERE, YOU THIEF!"

He runs after the thief that stole his money.

The commotion leads those that were doing something to observe before pitying the kid that got his purse stolen.

'Poor guy.'

'What a terrible thing to happen.'

'Must have sucked to have the things he earned stolen'

And other thoughts appeared in their head.

If the kid knew what was going on in their heads, he would have vomit blood.

He, a young master, someone that is pity by those with less prestige than him would scream out:

"STOP PITYING ME AND HELP ME CATCH THE THIEF!"

However, he was to busy catching up to the thief.

The thief seems to be making him go on a wild goose chase.

'Dammit, stop RUNNING!!!'

The thief then took a sharp turn to one of the alleyways.

'Hump, trying to ambush me?'

A cold light appears in the kid's eyes.

'You are too young to ambush me.'

He prepares to take a stance when he will catch the thief.

Both enter the alleyway still in a chase with each other.

Then, a dead-end appears in the alleyways.

"So trying to ambush me, huh?"

The kid asks the thief while taking a stance.

"An ambush?"

The thief turns around revealing an old man throwing the purse up in the air every few seconds with one hand.

"Hehehe, this old man just wanted a jug of wine with some 'hard-earned' money."

He chuckled.

"Shut up, I will take you down before your friends come here!"

The kid roared as he launches himself toward the old man.

"As I said, I just wanted some wine. Why are you making this old man work?"

The old man said still throwing the purse up, while he clutches his shoulder as he dodges the kid's attack.

This made the kid angrier than before.

He increases the attacks he unleashed upon the old man.

Meanwhile, the old man was liked the wind, he slightly moved just a bit to dodge every attack.

'Hmmm, nice stance, nice positioning, mmmm, quite fierce.'

The old man admires as he continues to dodge the kid's attacks.

Seeing how the old man easily dodges his attack as well as having a smug face while doing it, he felt unable to breathe out the foul air he wanted.

'Damn, Damn, DAMN, go DIE!!!'

This continues for a while before the kid ran out of breath.

*BREATHES HEAVILY*

"Give ... me ... my ... PURSE!"

The kid said as he gritted his teeth.

"Hmm, alright."

The old man said as he casually throws the purse to the kid.

The kid catches the purse, then looks back at the old man holding ten gold coins between my fingers.

The kid was about to speak when the old man asked a question.

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

While he plays with the gold coins in his hand.

"The name is Li, I will have my revenge."

Li narrowed his eyes while he spoke in a more calm voice than before.

"Oh come on now, we are friends as we just have an intimate interaction."

'INTIMATE INTERACTION, SHAMELESS!'

Li begrudgingly thought in his head.

"Well, I hope we meet again."

The old man turns around and walks away.

"WA-"

Then disappears in front of Li's eyes.

"-ITTT ... damn old man."

Li then walks out of the alleyway feeling weak.

"MASTER!"

A voice appears to his left.

He looks and sees two girls running towards him.

He then smiles as nothing happened.

"Ah, Qinyang, Yilong."

The girl on the left, Qinyang had long black hair that was long reaching her waist fluttering in the air, an hourglass figure with big bosom, a face that can make even the same gender fall in love her, and a cheerful personality.

The girl on the right, Yilong was less noticeable, brown hair that was not that long as Qinyang reaching only her shoulders, a smaller bosom but a bigger bottom, also a face that can topple cities, and a calm personality.

These girls have been with Li for ten years of which was exciting in *cough* own way.

"Master you can't leave us."

Qinyang pouts.

"Sorry, sorry, I had something to do."

Li explains to the girls.

"You could have asked us to do it."

Said Yilong.

"I said I'm sorry, how about this. We can all go to the Weeping Swan Sect ceremony together."

Li compromise.

"Hump, better take us with you."

Qinyang still pouting but a little better.

Yilong just stares at Li with a yearning gaze.

'These two.'

Li wryly smiles.
