Chapter 4

Silence filled the Li clan’s manor, as sounds of footsteps approached from a distance.

It’s was an elderly man with long hair that touched his shoulders, he hung a fishing rod on his right shoulder and with is left hand he held a bucket filled with fishes.

As he passed by, he noticed there were no guards at the entrance to the Li clan’s manor.

Confusion made his facial expression change as he noticed the entrance gate was wildly opened.

Now he was certain, something was wrong. He knew the Li clan would never let a situation like this happen whereby their gate is left opened with any any guards at the entrance.

He was hesitant but still chose to go into the manor as his curiousity would not let him pass by. The sight he beheld as soon as he entered the manor left a terrible taste in his mouth.

It was truly a gruesome and a catastrophic one.

“Oh no, what in the world happened here?” He said to himself.

He stared around in utter confusion as he looked at the manor of a clan claimed to be one of the greatest in the continent completely razed to the ground.

Buildings were almost completely flattened to the ground as dead bodies where scattered around the floor infecting the atmosphere with the stench of blood.

Disgust and fear sipped into his soul making him want to vomit but in a desperate desire to know and understand what has happened he steeled himself as he began to check the around for survivors.

A few minutes had gone by when he passed through the rout in front of the treasury coming across a gruesome scene.

Ken, laying on the ground completely unconscious and his mother a few ft away from him completely naked and half dead as she had lost a lot of blood.

“Naomi!!!” He screamed out her name as he ran towards her and took a knee.

Ken’s mother who barely heard her name managed to opened her eyes to check who it was which helped the elderly man confirm she was still alive.

He immediately reached for his side bag and brought out a liquid substance in a little bottle, he looked at the stab wound on her stomach and signs in relief.

“It’s not to late” He said.

He immediately popes of the cover and pour it on her injury.

She curled up as the injured area made a steaming sound with light smoke coming out of it. She was completely healed a few seconds after, but she still couldn’t move as she had lost a lot of blood.

The elderly man immediately took of his coat and used it to cover Naomi.

Without any hesitation, he took out a steady looking rope from his bag and placed Ken on his back using the rope to hold home in place.

He picked Naomi up, Ken’s mother as he dashed out of the Li clan’s manor and headed to his home, the nearby village.
