What's Rightfully Mine

Within a matter of a single breath and despite the decent cultivation realm base that these elderly figures had, they were all sucked dry out of their vitality and the valuable items they carried with them.

Right behind the front and main silver gate of the Fang Clan, right in front of the clan head pavilion and his direct descendants. Only one middle-aged man could be seen standing alone in the gentle breeze of the wind.

If you take a second glance and look just a little bit closer, you will notice a dark shadow that was hovering closely behind him, kind of whispering in his ears, quite a terrifying sight if anyone saw it from a third point of view.

The middle-aged man was scared to death after he saw all his friends and most importantly those strong cultivators whose strength wasn't something to be trifled with, casually and instantly turn to dust after a dark shadow penetrated them.

It was then that Abaddon's voice came from behind him," Show me where your clan keeps all the spirit stones and valuable items."

His words carried with them an undeniable power that softened the guard's knees as he relieved himself in his pants.

"Lord, please follow me, I'll show you the way." The elderly figure cried.

Anyone who had seen their partner turn to dust would have no shred of courage left. The middle-aged man rushed into tears as fear to show him the way to the treasure room.

Just in a matter of seconds, they already reached a locked metal door that was situated under the main pavilion.

The middle-aged man didn't waste any time least he gets himself killed if he did so.

Rumble!

The treasure room opened and the light shined inside of it.

In front of the chamber, the middle-aged man begged for his life," Lord, spare me. I can be your slave- No, I'll be your dog from today onwards..."

Only, before the man could beg more for mercy thus he can keep his life, his voice and body seemed to refuse to respond to his orders.

Soon, his vision turned to blur as he slowly lost consciousness, his entire body heavily dropping to the ground and turning into dust within the blink of an eye.

" Or you can just die! "

Subsequently, the dark shadow hastily placed everything inside the room in the system's storage that he got a detailed explanation days ago for its mechanism.

He didn't have time to pick only what was valuable and just took everything with him, as the chamber wasn't small and contained a lot of things, including tens of martial arts scrolls.

Despite Abaddon having no need for any of these mortal-ranked martial arts, he still greedily took all of them without leaving even a peddle behind.

Matter of fact, if the system storage accepted heavy and big objects he would have probably taken the door of the chamber with him, as it could be worth a lot of spirit stones when he sells it.

He didn't care anymore that he stood this low as to actually go and rob mortal martial arts and low spirit stones.

His life was on the line now, and if he wanted to grow strong enough and take back his rightful place and take revenge on those righteous cultivator bastards, he would need a lot of spirit stones and other treasures that could greatly increase his cultivation speed.

A foul wind stirred inside Storm Wind Town that not got turned into a ghost town instead. A dark shadow could be seen speeding to a grand mansion that wasn't any less majestic in sight compared to the Fang Clan.

He directly flew above the front gate as he spread his dark domain to cover the whole territory of this clan.

A darkness that was way darker than night spread across the whole lane of the second-grade clan, not even a tiny piece of ground got missed as everything got covered.

" Humph, chickens are really quick to flee."

He sneered as he didn't find sense any cultivators inside the mansion, but only a few ordinary humans that were asleep.

He instantly deduced that everyone fled the town after they saw the lightning tribulation hovering above them.

He couldn't help but take a liking to these people for their quick-witted decisions since not many people would leave behind their home ground and territory without having any second thoughts or concerns about the matter.

He didn't waste any more seconds as he instantly flew to check every corner of the pavilion and rooms to get his loot after he finished his child's play mission.

Even mortals that were the last breathing people inside of the whole town weren't sparred as they instantly got sucked dry out of their vitality.

Yet, after a few moments of his quick search around the whole mansion, he didn't find anything of value except of some scraps that were here and there, totally worth nothing.

He double and triple-checked in hopes that he missed a hidden chamber that everything was kept in like all decently ranked clans, yet he still found nothing.

" Ha-ha-ha..."

Abaddon's demonic laugh reverberated to the thousands of yards of land that existed around the medium-sized town.

" Good, very good. You actually dare to flee while taking with you what's rightfully mine."

If the clan that was already a good distance away from the town heard his words, they would surely spit blood out of rage.

They took decades of hard work to accumulate their wealth attempting to become a first-grade clan after they heavily nurture one of their clan's most talented cultivators.

Yet now, this old man that didn't even spend a few minutes in their mansion was already talking like all their wealth was his, appearing as if they stole it from him.

Thousands of yards away from Storm Wind Town, a dozen or so people could be running at full speed, clearly having a destination in their minds as their path was straight to the north-east.

" Father, I don't understand, the lightning tribulation that you told us about didn't damage any of the town's buildings. So why are we still running and not turning back."

His father rolled his eyes at his son's words, not comprehending how is his own blood turned out to be this dumb, but he still explained without moving his head and looking back at him.

" That's obviously not the reason, well a part of it is but the primary reason for our actions isn't that event. You see, we got the news that the Fang Clan is planning on annexing us using underhanded means."

He paused for a moment as he looked at the beautiful woman running next to him, he then moved his eyes to face his sons and kept explaining.

"They were lately getting more power and influence inside of the town and we even believe that they aren't far from meeting the requirements to advance and become a first-grade clan, so we gonna relocate our clan base."

A few seconds passed after he finished explaining his main reason for fleeing the town, but he still got no reaction from his son that raised the question nor the other disciples of the clan.

He moved his head to look at his wife's flawless and jade-like skin, but unexpectedly, she was nowhere to be seen.

A bad feeling bloomed inside of his heart as he looked back to check on his clan members and family, in hope that his wife went next to her son thus he feels better.

His movements abruptly halted as a horrifying sight that will be the last thing he would ever see in his life entered his eyes.

He unconsciously took two steps back as his heart slightly trembled, his body shaking and his breath accelerating. His eyes were watery and red as he mumbled in a low voice.

" Wh...Why, what are you and where is my family."

His voice trailed off as he didn't know how to exactly react at this moment. Should he feel fear and run, or should he maybe get angry and attack?

His mind went blank as all his thoughts seemed to leave his brain. Soon, a cold chilly voice that sent shivers running down his spine entered his ears.

" You stole what's mine!"

Bam!

His body heavily dropped to the ground, turning into dust in the blink of an eye as he followed his family and clan members to the afterlife, all along not understanding why and how did he deserve such a fate and unhuman death.
