[New Mission Alert: Eliminate the 157th Squad of the Purple Qilin Cavalry]

[Host has untill sun set to complete mission]

[ Requirements: Use the mastery of the Iron Wire Sword Technique to complete the mission]

Zhang Han ignored the notification from the system because, with or without it, he was already looking at dead men.

"You guys came all the way here to find me, but you can't even tell when am right infront of you!" Zhang Han said in a chilly voice as his eyes began to glow red.

He had activated his eyes of imperfection and had entered his own world were nobody else existed, only he and the soldiers responsible for this.

He was focusing all his attention on the troop of soldiers taking in every single detail.

The commander leading the squad of twenty Cavalry men narrowed his eyes.

He had misunderstood Zhang Han words, to him, it seemed like Zhang Han was the true mastermind behind the Demonic Pill Master,

"Very well then, since you've finally showed up, don't even think about leaving!"

The commander glanced at the four soldiers who had carried out the first attack and nodded.

The four soldiers then turned their spears towards Zhang Han and without any hesitation shot forward at a high speed.

The crowd shook their heads in pity, they did not know what was going on, but what was the use in playing hero.

They could all feel Zhang Han aura and knew his cultivation to be in the realm of the sky lords, but so what?

Who he was fighting against was not just some regular army made by nobles who only wore fancy armours for appearance. The young man was dealing with the Purple Qilin Cavalry, the most feared and well trained soldiers forged through war and blood.

The lad rather looked young and inexperienced, but they could all tell he was one in a million prodigy considering his cultivation and age, but that didn't seem to matter anyway.

They all sighed hoping to see a gory scene, but what happened next was a shocker.

Before the spears could even get closer to Zhang Han, he vanished from his position and arrived in the center between his four attackers, catching them by surprise. They wanted to adjust their position but it was too late.

Zhang Han swung his sword in a circular arc before coming to a halt.

The four attack suddenly stopped.

One of the soldiers felt like there was an itchy sensation on his neck, but before he could touch his neck to feel it, his head fell off as blood gushed out.

This was the faith of the other three men as their severed head laid in a pool of blood silencing the crowd.

The commander of the troops widened his eyes in shock, but immediately gathered his composure, "Attack together!" He gave his command immediately as he led the charge on his armored dragon horse.

He wasn't willing to take any chance, the enemy was a Sky Lord expert like himself, but his sword skills and speed were abnormal, he didn't want to underestimate him, he wanted to finish this as quickly as possible.

Zhang Han opened his eyes of imperfection once again, and this time he scanned the armour of the soldiers.

The first four he killed weren't wearing any helmet which left a lot of openings for him to exploit, but the galloping troops were all armored to the teeth.

In his world all he saw were sixteen men approaching him fully covered in dark smoke, the only light was a small feeble light glowing on their throats.

The metal used in creating that collar was not as strong as the rest of the body parts, but it was very narrow and near impossible to exploit, but not for him though, Ge has the eyes of imperfection.

Zhang Han knew he had one shot to exploit it, the moment he attacked, those soldiers would know of his awareness of the gap in their armor, he needed to take them all with a single strike.

Time was burning out and he could see the tips of the spears of the remaining soldiers light up in a myriad of colours.

He had to think fast. A brilliant idea suddenly came in mind.

"System, Synchronize my attack with the eyes of imperfection!" Zhang Han said with his hands crossed as he prayed it would work.

"As the host wish." Was the reply he got back. Threads of golden lights began to connect his sword to the weaknesses within those gaps.

"[Iron Wire sword technique, First form, Eighteen Hands Of The Dragon Subduing Sword]"

Zhang Han immediately channeled all the qi in his spiritual world and swung his sword.

A rumble was heard as eighteen beams of light shot out from a single swing of the sword, this light beams were swift and fast each heading for a soldier, whiles two headed for the commander.

The soldiers couldn't even react as the beams shattered their building spear momentum, and sliced their neck causing all of them to fall off their dragon horses, and die without even knowing how.

YHAARRRRR!!!!!!

The commander roared as he immediately formed a huge barrier using Qi, two beams of light crushed through the barrier as a roar of a dragon echoed.

The commander swiftly cross his hands and embraced the impact which knocked him of his horse, and sent him hurtling towards a building.

The moment he crushed, the building collapsed on him.

Silence.

No one dared to even breath loudly, twenty Purple Qilin Cavalry soldiers consisting of four Spiritual Experts led by a Sky Lord expert, had all been wiped out by a single lone young prodigy of unknown origin.

This was unconceivable to them, the four youngsters who had encountered Zhang Han in the Boundless Spirits Forest were among the crowd.

They all took a step back in fear, "it's the monster!!" They shook in fear.

Zhang Han was exhausted, but still remained on his feet, As various announcements rang through his system.

He wasn't interested, he went down on his knees to hold the tattered body of Zhu Yu who was on his last breath.

It was quite unbelievable to see him still breathing, after all the attacks he took.

Zhi Yu looked at the direction of the inn and said feebly using all his final will, "There's a map and storage ring in there, they belong to you now....Cough....Cough

Now your destiny is in your own hands, those two items will help you in the revenge you seek, if you are truly the chosen one"

"How did you kno?.... " Zhang Han wanted to ask but stopped.

Zhu Hui came closer to her father with tears in her eyes, "How I wish, I had my hands to wipe your tears for the final time" The loving father said as he closed his eyes for the last time.

"Protect my daughter " was his last words.

Zhang Han bowed to him, though he didn't know much about Zhu Yu, any man willing to help an injured stranger was no evil person.

Besides he owed them his life, protecting Zhu Hui was actually a small price to pay.

He got up and entered the inn to retrieve the items Zhu Yu mentioned.

When he returned, he dragged the crying Zhu Hui, who didn't want to leave, whiles storing the cops of Zhu Yu in his storage ring.

Everyone avoided them like a plague, no matter how much of a genius he was, offending the Purple Qilin Cavalry wasn't very wise, no one wanted the wrath of the Grand General.

The moment the two left, the commander who was buried in a rubble punched his way out, he dragged his his body towards one of the dragon horses and took a bow and arrow, before shooting the arrow towards the sky.

The arrow flew upwards with the speed of lightning, before exploding into a large purple mist which covered the sky of the entire city.

The commander immediately collapsed after that.

"OH No!!!!!, This city won't know peace in the coming days" Said one of the elders who were assigned to guard the teleportation ring.

"Why??" Someone asked, this had nothing to do with them, Right?

"They are all coming!"
