Chapter 89: Shao Cheng Has Once More Address The Words He Has Spoken To Dai In The Previous Life.
Although there was an arrow lodge on Shao Cheng body however only a slight wrinkle of his eyebrows was the only indicator of his reaction from the pain before his feet has finally landed on the ground.
And without any hesitation, Shao Cheng has instantly reached over to break over the hard wooden stick of the arrows, allowing the sharp arrowhead to remain inside his body in order to not deal with any bleeding during this dangerous situation.
After all, he doesn't have a decent time to heal his current injuries while worrying about having a blood loss from all the bleeding going on.
"Cheng, your hurt!"
Hearing the heartbreaking quivering voice of his older brother, Shao Cheng movement didn't stop at all as he wretch the particular arrow that was log into his palm while not sparing a single glance to Shao Yan as he was far more focus at what he needed to deal right at this instant.
"Brother, watch out for that person attack. Don't forget you are their target."
Although Shao Cheng couldn't help but reach over into his inner chest robe where he has stored some of his medicine when he saw that Shao Yan was finally able to move properly before quickly throwing the carefully wrapped object to his brother.
"Pour this into the water over in my table, that one is safe to use and let your subordinates drink it."
He knows fully well that the drug's effect on Shao Yan body will be gone soon, and as he glances around the tiny village, a bit of murderous feeling appeared within him when he doesn't even see a single reaction and sounds from the civilian after the ongoing fight has been happening.
The outcome of their lives should be obvious enough when there is not even a single person who has woken up and has arrived in their location or rather alerting everyone about the ongoing danger.
It is always the innocent people that were being easily trampled with no matter which world he now lives, which is why when he stared at the way the blood on his bleeding hand has gently drip into the earth ground, Shao Cheng has once more determined the fact that he will not allow himself to be a weak person.
Not in the previous lifetimes and not in this new one of his.
Fate Destiny Shao Cheng doesn't believe, accepted and deny any of those powerful words, all he knows is the fact that there are more people that he wanted to protect, there are more people that he wanted to treasure and there a person that he wanted to fulfill a promise from.
And anyone who gets in his way needs to remove, and if a far bloodier path is what he needed to suffer and face, then so be it.
"Brother I will protect you."
"W-Wai-!"
So without another word to his older brother, Shao Cheng with hard eyes and determination brimming within him has charged ahead, his sole target being Dai while on his pathway has simply eradicated the remaining people that were still kept alive, unbothered from the arrow still lodge into his body, while the pain doesn't register one bit into his mind.
One thought just shone into his mind in that particular moment and that is, Shao Cheng will not allow his older brother to experience the same future like the one in the previous life.
And he refuses to concede as the new outcome of Shao Yan into this world to become with the word 'dead'
While Dai who can feel the determination on the other young man's body despite his expression remaining blank as ever has let go of the bow on his hands before taking out his own stronger and sharper blade and directly confronting the man that somehow causes a certain insight and thought to develop on his mind.
Shao Cheng's eyes narrowed down when he saw the weapon on the hand of Dai, felling a bit fortunate enough when he didn't see the famous weapon that Dai has been well known for in the past in which has caused a certain thought to appear on his mind.
But for now though, as he shifted his body to the side to dodge the slash that has come on his way after the two of them has met head-on, before turning around from the next assault that has soon followed after, Shao Cheng has instantly used his elbow to hit the man side in order to break his ribs only for it to be evaded.
And in perfect synchronization they soon spun in a completely different direction with only having a few distances away from each other body.
Shao Cheng turning to the right side and Dai turning to the left side before the two of them have retreated quickly in order to face each other because showing your back to the enemy is the greatest taboo a person could do.
Soon cold sapphire eyes met eerily calm dark eyes for a split second of stillness before another round of assault happened as they use everything they got in order to kill each other.
One by one, every attack was either dodge, evaded or blocked, not hitting their destined planned assault which was to strike their enemy's most vital parts of their bodies.
Especially, when every single attack that comes their way has been able to perfectly dodge it with just a mere casual turn to the side, a tilt of the head and a twist of their bodies.
Same judgment, same prediction, same precise timing, the two of them seemed to be at the same level as every action they take was absolutely equal, even the people that have already been given medicine can recognize it.
Although the longer the two young men fought the more it can be seen by a person with far more experience eyesight that the fight will not stay the same the entire time and one of the young men will soon be at a disadvantage.
Soon, Shao Cheng couldn't help but inwardly frown when he felt his present endurance was failing once more in which with a quick decision, rather than dodge the slash on his way, he has basically stepped hard on the blade itself and flipping his body backward that has slightly rose up a bit in midair before perfectly landing to the nearest weapon for him to use.
Kicking the sword of the dead soldier of his older brother off from the ground, Shao Cheng has taken a hold of the flipping weapon that has proper itself up with the force that he has used with a tight steady grip before using another familiar form of their Shao Family martial arts skill.
And without any hesitation and fear despite the constant tiredness of his body, while sweats have already started appearing on his forehead, Shao Cheng has once more charged to the hardest enemy that he faces in this new life of his.
Soon the resounded out of blades meeting against each other echoed loudly at the eerily quiet place with only the two men sound of fighting has been echoing from the start, while Dai that has been fighting the young man for a while now, saw in the corner of his eyes the way that those other people that were still alive have started moving since their drugs in their body was slowly losing effects.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
Leaning back to dodge the slice into his throat, in that split second Shao Cheng has sharply noticed the way the young man's eye widens a tiny bit when there was a slight stillness on his movement, causing Shao Cheng eyes to glint with recognition before quickly moving without any hesitation as his blade was finally able to pierce the young man body.
Only unfortunately though since Shao Cheng only manages to stab Dai left shoulder and not his heart that he has been targeting but despite that the young man didn't hesitate in that split second to make another blow when he was wounded causing Shao Cheng to feel his stomach was hit hard, in which fortunately isn't in a full-force attack since the young man was more focused in backing away and standing in a far safe distance.
"You are great"
In Shao Cheng's surprise eyes, he listened as the young man have finally spoken, although he was also surprised at the sincere praise from Dai of all people, then again, many things can happen so the man in his memories is a bit more different on the person that was standing before him.
"You're also greathow about you work for me."
And once more, Shao Cheng has spoken the words that he has addressed to this man in the previous life in which he got refuse of course.
Hey maybe this time, Shao Cheng might get him, especially when those dark eyes seemed to wave a bit, after all, such talent is something that he will be needing more into this new life.
