Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

Mira was currently sitting in her room cultivating with Dominique wrapped around her. The only thing one could hear in the room is Dominique's light breathing.

All of a sudden Mira's eyes opened wide and she started to have a bad feeling. She wasn't sure what it was, but it couldn't mean anything good. She looked at the peacefully sleeping Dominique and started pushing her to wake up.

"Wake up, child." Mira said in a deep voice as she put on her mask.

"Yawn… Huh? Mira? Why did you wake me up? Are we going somewhere?" Dominique asked curiously, but after looking into Mira's eyes she felt they were much colder than before.

"No. It seems we'll be having some visitors tonight. Get under the bed." Mira said as she got up and stood in the middle of the room.

"Visitors? Why do I need to get under the room if we ar-" Dominique was about to ask, but the glare she received from Mira immediately shut her up and she crawled under the bed.

Mira just stood there in the middle of the room with her arms crossed, waiting for someone to come into her room. She wasn't sure who might be targeting her, but she's sure that whoever it is won't be leaving here alive. The probability that it's someone in the Core Formation Realm is extremely low. Not only that but if they are caught there'd be a huge problem between their Sect and Lunar Fox CIty.

Time slowly passed and Dominique was starting to wonder if Mira tricked her, but she dismissed the thought since Mira has never done something like this before.

Not long after she heard the window in the room break and several figures darted in.

Mira looked at the 3 people that just barged into her room and noticed that everything was covered in black, even their faces were covered as well. All 3 of them were in the Foundation Realm and they weren't even in the Xiantian Stage either. They were only Late and Peak-Houtian Stage cultivators. The three of them stared at Mira with eyes full of hatred.

"Rhydian, feel free to have some fun." Mira said as she released a faint smile.

Rhydian got ready and charged at the 3 of them. She looked like a streak of lightning before crashing into one of the attackers dealing a heavy blow. Blood started spraying everywhere as half of the intruder's body was missing. Even though he was on death's door, he still attempted to attack the little wolf. But before he could even raise his sword, his head exploded into mush and his body dropped to the ground.

The other 2 watched this in shock as they haven't even gotten the chance to move. Their companion didn't even get the chance to open his mouth before he died! The other 2 of them started fuming with anger and took out their swords.

"Demon! We won't let you get away with this! Prepare to die!" One of them screamed in anger and charged towards Mira.

Mira just scoffed. Mira took a good look at the blood that splattered all over the room and frowned.

"You're cleaning this shit up after this, Rhydian." Mira said and sent a death glare towards Rhydian and attacked the intruder.

The other intruder also charged towards Mira and tried to forget about the wolf. He knew that challenging Rhydian would just mean instant death.

Mira waited for both of them to get close to her before she started to move. She started dodging and deflecting their swords with her fists. After getting close enough to them, Mira started aiming for their vital organs. She was strong enough that her punches would heavily damage their internal organs and they'd split up blood after every punch.

After damaging their internal organs, she'd then focus on their legs. One kick from Mira would fracture their shins, another kick would break it, and the third kick would shatter it and they'd be forced to fall to the ground.

The first intruder went down with his leg shattered and spitting up blood. The other intruder's eyes went bloodshot in anger due to seeing his comrade getting beaten to such a state. Flames started to form around his sword and even his body started to char from the intense heat.

"AHHHHH!" He screamed and recklessly charged at Mira like a madman. Mira sent a kick towards his crotch and popped his testicles. The man scrunched up in pain and almost fainted from the intense pain, but he kept charging at Mira.

After getting close to her, Mira grabbed his wrist holding the sword with one hand and grabbed his neck in the other.

She gripped his wrist until he dropped the sword, but didn't stop there.

Crack!

"Ahhhhh!"

The man's wrist shattered and his hand went limp. Mira pulled him closer and forced him to stare into her wine-red eyes.

"I'm guessing that you have no intention of telling who sent you or if anybody even sent you, but I can at least give you a painless death if you do. How about it?" Mira asked coldly, but the man still looked at her fearlessly.

"Go to hell demon! This isn't over! My sect will be sure to kill you for what you did to them during the tournament!" The man roared in anger.

Mira just shook her head and increased the strength of her grip around the man's neck just enough to where he started suffocating.

The intruder that was lying on the ground was gritting his teeth in anger as he watched the leader of their group being choked to death. He started crawling towards Mira his sword in hand, but Mira just kicked him away before he could do anything.

Mira wasn't sure how long it'll take for a cultivator to suffocate, but she was ready to find out.

After a few minutes, the man started to struggle but he wasn't on the verge of death.

After about 5 minutes, the man started trying to pry Mira's hand away from his neck gasping for air.

Around 10 minutes later, the man's face started turning purple and he was getting weaker by the second. And a few minutes later, his eyes rolled back and his body went limp.

Crack!

Mira crushed his neck into paste and dropped the man. She then slowly walked towards the other man that was laying on the ground. The man stared at her with bloodshot eyes.

"You won't get away with this! We'll know you were the one that did this! Haha! At least I'll die knowi-!"

Crack!

Mira cracked the last man's neck before he continued screaming. Mira then started to collect her loot. She took their space rings and weapons. After searching the space rings she checked them to see what she got.

A few hundred Spirit Stones, 3 Mortal-Grade swords of varying quality, a few rejuvenation pills, and a few other things that were useless to her. She transferred everything from their space rings into her own, but she left a Late-Stage Mortal-Grade sword in there as well as 50 Spirit Stones and the pills in one of the space rings and stored the other 2.

"Dinner time, Rhydian. Eat up. Be sure to leave this place spotless!" Mira ordered and Rhydian walked over to a corpse and started eating them.

"You can come out, Kid. Our visitors have left. They even left us with a few welcoming gifts." Mira called out to Dominique.

Dominique was internally screaming when Mira said that.

'I'm not stupid, you know! I could hear you killing them! I can even see Rhydian eating them right now! Are you trying to hide it from me or playing around?! I can't tell!' Dominique thought to herself as she cralled out of the bed while trying to keep her eyes off of Rhydian eating the people.

She wasn't exactly sure how to feel about this scene. These people obviously came here with the intent to kill, but they aren't even being treated as corpses! They are being treated as food mainly because Mira doesn't want to leave a mess!

Dominique glanced towards Mira kicking the two other bodies towards Rhydian and gulped. Mira is too scary!

Mira flicked a space ring towards Dominique after seeing her out from underneath the bed.

"Here's a space ring. It has a Late-Stage Mortal-Grade Sword in it with some Spirit Stones and pills. This will get you started when you reach the Qi Condensation Realm. You can also use the sword to practice with, but if you don't want to use a sword then you'll have to wait." Mira explained and Dominique's expression immediately brightened when she heard this.

"Thank you! And I've been doing some thinking. I don't think I'm suitable for a sword, but I'll still use this to gain experience in the meantime. Thank you for your consideration!" Dominique bowed towards Mira.

Mira just waited for the bodies to be cleaned up by Rhydian before she and Dominique got in the bed.

The room looked light it did before the intruders broke in. The only thing that was out of place was the broken window, but Mira figured she'd just replace it with some ice when it's time to leave this place.

Mira just went back to cultivating and Dominique held onto Mira with a blissful expression on her face before falling asleep again.
